The hitherto complete success u the Spanish exped

unaLic But We live in strange times Political changes
Of the most m0mentous kind every day takrg place

that Northern and Southern Italy would at this day have
been united under sceptre Who could then have
l0reseen that the great Amer Republic would have
been split asunder and the opposing sections busy pe-

man the resz ,ton OF the dream Of Italian unity, and
more renal kable than the grave fact OF American d.
rupp ia the sudden and apparently ineIpicabe revival
OF Spanish energy and enterprise on the very FIELD where
they we're once prominently displayed. IL may be
id indeed that but for the crisis in America, should
never have heard OF the St Domingo expedition.
IL may lie said that President Lone on's difficulty is
Marshal 0Dunnts opportunity; and this is undoubted
the case Il is easy to imagine what ferment would
have created at Washington had such expedition

ernmeut would have been told in the plsn,s terms that

the exception Of the adoinug State OF Hayt Il is but
oatura that the President Of that sable Republic should
feel uneasy az the presence of Spanish force in his i'm
mediate neghborhood, and the not improbable result
may be that France may be called in by the HGytens

indeed that ENJOYS have already arrived 10 Paris for the
