THE ACQUISITION or CUBA.


In the late message, President Buchanan
again urges the acquisition of Cuba, BY fair
purchase. It is useless to talk about fair
purchase OF foul purchase, when man IS not
disposed to sell. II your neqhbor has fine
mansion, much coveted by others, and has
often replied 10 proposals for purchase. that
he desires il for his own occupancy, il is an.
noying and insulting to hin-it is anything
but good neighborbood insist upon his
selling. Moreover, before we talk of ac-
quiring new countries, we would better keen
together what we have got. In fact, we could
better afford to sell than to buy. Suppose,
instead of buying Cuba, we sell out New
England to Great Britain. The only diff
Guilty in this plan would be in inducing Great
Britain. which has had some experience Of
that race, to take her at any price.
We hope the Snuth, at all events, will wash
rs hands, especially at this time, Of all fill
clustering projects against Cuba. Let the
whole world see that It is not in this part Of
the Uuion that schemes Of spoliation and az.
erosion upon the rights. honor and property
OF other communities receive the slghtes,
countenance. Let the South conciliate 10
its own cause the proud and generous Span
lsh race, which has similar institutions and
impulses, lofty. chivalric. and generous, like
ITS own. We need not go abroad, like the
whining abolitionists, 10 court foreign sym.
patty. but let US not by rapacily and inius.
uce, drive away natural allies.

from the Atlantic to the Pacific ocean, would
be looked to by foreigR governments for the
fullilments of all treaties and national obi
cations, the army and navy would sustain it,
and large majority of civil Office holders
would do the same.
The leading States having, voluntarily.
thrown themselves out Of the confederacy,
could have no further claims on the consti-
tuition or government for protection. Then
without an organized head. without nation
ality. without treasure, and subject to inter.
nal connection, they must inevitably become
prey to all domestic and foreign enemies,
and finally. would break up into factions, or
petty republics, not known beyond their own
preciats and governed by military chiefs.
Whereas, by adhering to the Union, with
the constitution Of the United States as the
basis OF their actions, and well prepared to
defend to the knife all encroachments on its
inslolable rights and privileges w. then the
aggressors would fall back, and time roll on
again as smoothly as ever. UNION.
