and injurious that il Is hardly worth while 10 note the
diseourtesy of adopting such policy and giving il
definite and rreverbe shape in advance Of the arrival
Of Mr.. Adams, without allowing the opportunity to
offer a word Of explanation remoDstrance. Mr..
Adams reached Liverpool the 18th Of May. The next
day the proclamation was printed in London.
The United States by their neutrality broke the back
of the Canadian rebellion dashed the hopes cherished
by the rebels of effective American sympathy In good
faith assisted the British Government in maintaining
It's authority, and restoring Order and thus materially
diminished the cost OF treasure and OF hfe at which
alone their subsection could have been accomplished.
The British Government by their neutrality have
made our task far more difficult apart from the injury
we may anticipate from the feet Of priyaeers whose
letters are so respectfully countersigned. But we
learn from this proclamation one lesson, that will be
perhaps worth all that it shall cost u.s. we learn the
treatment we may expect if we fail to maintain our
national integrity and the houor of our flag.
What will be our standing among nations II, con-
sentng to separation we lose nearly half of our terri
tory and twothirds Of Atlantic seaboard and de-
scend to the position of a thrd-rate power Or what
respect will be paid u.s. it, to maintain our territory
we compromise with rebellion II we yield at the
cannons mouth what the people have deliberately re-
fused at the polls, we teach the world by such an
example that may be bulied with success and that
when resist principle unreasonable demands ii
is only necessary to humble flag and TO threaten
Washington, to induce us ignd1hiniously to submit
Let US discard all reliance upon other help than that
Of God, right cause and strong arm and let
ton that fails to protect Itself against foes whether
foreign domestic, deserves to perish ingloiously.
Before eaviUR the question Of Engands neutrality,
think we should distinguish between the basty
ton Of the Britsh Cabinet and the deliberate convic-
ton OF the British people
That the mind of that great nation Is sound and that
az 500 o. they understand the motives and Of
this rebellion you understand Them they will appre-
ciate po-ition approve resolution and wish
God speed IN great work Of restoring the Federal
Union to its integrity and its great original principles
Of freedom, cannot, will not doubt.
Already their Cabinet has partially atoned for the
first proclamation by an order that will prevent the
privateers of Davis from entering British ports and
both the Government and the people must soon recog
nize the fact that have the ability and the win to
crush this rebellion and maintain our integrity, how
ever long the struggle however great the cost and
that more recoguize the rgbt Of England nor o.
Europe TO dictate to In this matter, than Engane
would have recognized right TO interfere between
her and Nena Sahib The material interests based on
cotton must yield the national and moral duties .n
to-day devolve upon tue American people, IN dssefms
ing perhaps for untold ages, the destiny OF the Amer
