AT tho period when England hastily recognized the

strenuous efforts to induce the emperor Napoleon a. FOL-

and admiration upon the United States government
Its people, and he would have DICED at opportunity

due intervention and deprecated any has,y in the

Upon further consideration he refused with Eng

government issued proclamation Of neutraity, which
worded as 20 give no offence to the United States
government. Napoleon was, DOUBT, not sorry to find
how great the resentment felt in the North at the
course pursued by England and he reoced his
