ENGLAND AND AMERICA.

Mr.. Disraeli in Il recent address on the hus-
tingS. in England, limited as follows, ut the pos
sible friendship and aid of the United States
should England ever need their aid;
Gentlemen, we hear q great deal Of the balance
o fpower, of the Importance Of sustaining certain
barriers in Europe, and many other nxioms, all
of which to 4 certainH1I Tree are true, and
which may for a cert fnc continue to pre-
vail. But let me 80 opportunity of inn
pressing upon YOU bic day is coming, if it
has not already come, When the question Of the
balance Of power cannot be confined to Europe
alone. Since the time when that doctrine OBJ
tanned, great communities have arisen in another
hemisphere, who will not permit the balance Of
power to be limited TO Europe. iou have on
the other side of the Atlantic vigorous and
powerful communities, who will no longer sub
init to your circumscribed theory nl authority.
The Australian colonies, though now in their
youth. Int in the youth Of giants, have already.
as it were, thrown their colossal shadow over
Europe. And it is for old Europe ! lament that
she is exhausting her energies and her re-
sources in these wars. | could wish that she
would rather prepare for that awful compcti-
ton which incoming times she must encounter.
j WOllu dilllC W IldillCC, anu WI iitllN, anu
Russia dcvclopc their resources. improve their
agriculture, increase their population, and cul,
tiyatc the arts of life, social and scientific. in
stead of wasting their strength, risking their
stability, and sinking when the era to which |
have referred arrives, ly their own exhausted
position. Remember always that England,
though she is bound to Europe by tradition, by
affection, by great similarity of habits, and all
those tics which time alone can create anil con-
Sccratc, is moi 4 mere power Of the Old World.
Her geographical position, her laws. her
language and religion, connect her AS much
with the New World ~ with the Old. And
although she has occupied not only an eminent,
but | am bold TO ray the most eminent position
among European nations for ages, still, if ever
Europe. by her hort-sightcdncSS falls into al
inferior and exhausted state, for England there
will remain III illuStriors future. tChecr>.D-
We arc bound to the communities of the New
World, and those great States which our own
planting and colonizing energies have created,
bv ties and by interests which will sustain our
power and enable us to play rs great a part in
the times vet TO come as We do III these days.
and as we have done in the past. Cheers -
And therefore, now that Europe is on the eve
Of war. | say that it is for Europe, not for
England, that my heart sinks.
