Sauta Anna, has acquired considerable
knowledge Of American affairs. says in
reference to Mr.. BUcHANAH's messags:
''0ur readers may now see confirmed
tie prophecies which We bave so often ut
tered concerning the 0rasping policy OF
the North American Union. which will

Canada to Patagonia. Rivers OF blood
win no doubt dow in Cdba in defense Of

breasts Of our soldiers. let us be assured
that the cunning and the strength Of our
adtersariss win prepare for US days o.
mourning and bitterness.
