Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1863-04-30

From the Chicago Times
The cessation of tie Polish troubles leave
| Europe free once more to pursue its schemes Q
enterprise and conquest. The French Empero
can resume undisturbed lis plans Of Mexican
aPgrsndizsment and his interference in Easter
sffairs, to say nothing of bis intention toward.
| the United States; Englend may pursue hei
Egyptian enterprise, her East Indian aggres
| sions, and her contracts fer Confederate pTiva
teers Prussia her internal 6issensions Russis
her work of vAgaboDdage in Poland while the
little duchies along the shore may return with
renewed zsst to the cultivation of tie crop oi
brides and groOns, to await England's next
pleasure. The star OF liberty han set In Polaud's
horizon, and, once more ground dOwn to q
worse condition than that Of slavery its people
must wait for justice until the world forgets the
wrongs Of the Hottentot to remember tho fate oi
white men Russia, with her twenty millions
of emaucpsted slaves still or her hands, laid
down the lash at homo 70 raise il with redoubed
fury abroa1-feeing those who wers born to
slavery, and enslaving q people whose every
hope and aspiration is to breathe their fres ma
tive air once more. Champion of emancipation
in one breath, with the next she parpstuates q
relic of baFbarism which has been the fouest
blot upon her escutcheon.
The American question will again engage
foreign attention, aud we may expect the usual
Tumors of interference from London and
Paris. The comforting assurance which comes
from time to time through the diplomatic Earl
Russell, that her Msjssty's Government viii not
intervene, acquires a now significance and a
charming consistency as each successive ship IS
launched for Confederate use; while the solemn
regret of the American Premier at rumors oil
pecunisry diplomacy with British ship p-buiders
is to say the least Delightfully."- refreshing in its
Innocent YeTdsncy. II would be . terrible tale
to tell that American money had bought up the
Clyde and Msrsey, or that the Federal Govern
ment possessed and occupied the Confederate
strougholds across the ocean. The Emperor Of
China is not The only parsonage privileged to
soften the palms and tba heads of British ship
builders. While JEFF Davis does the celestial,
cannot our own Abe Lincoln pay tycoon
ard match him dollar for dollar and ship for
shipl If he cannot, he can stone for the fault
in no better way than to do hayi kGri upon his
own bowels. Bat we imagine no such fortunate
occurrences as either of these. Oar Government
will protest against "unfrisndly acts" and then
ssttle down in despair at its inability to effect
remedy-Gtits pOwerlessness TO enforce neUtrsl-
ity, and its hel plessness to buy it. To demand
it is, at the present moment, like the blusteT ol
man whose hands are tied. While cotton is
the goal of contentmant in English eyes; while
rebel diplomacy laughs cur minis serial capeTs to
scOrn; and while hostile aFms thwart and turn
back our efforts on every side, English sympa-
Thy and English money will 20 against us. Lst
the bowling aud lorg gbaired fanatics of Exeter
hall tell us why this is SC; and, if they cannot,
let them hold their peace and howl no more.
And let the Cheevers and Stoves, and the whole
race of vaPorers who sport tie mockery Of pious
gasconade to cover their desire of notoristy, tell
US why it is so-or give US no more of their
Machiavellian vsvsries.
