Letter from Prof. T. w. Newman.
To the Editor O the LondosI Star
SIR: We are already engaged in two
formidable wars-in New Zealand and
in Japan. We are not clear of third
in China. We look on with alarm at the
violent proceedings in Germany against
Denmark, not knowing how we may be
implicated in that quarter. Meanwhile
-apparantly through fear, and through
nothing else-we all allow Russia to vi
olate the treaty of 1856, and to send up.
a war feet in the Black Sea, capturing
our merchant ships if they attempt to
trade with the Circassians. ] say, it is
apparently through fear; for no one who
considers our recent Atlantic wars, or the
zeal with which the Ministry sprang to
arms in the matter of the Trent, will
easily impute it to humanity that Lord
Palmerston aud Russell wink at the
breach of treaty involved in the Russian
blockade.
With such an atmosphere of war
around us. cannot believe that this or
any English MinisterY would covet
American enmity, not to say American
war. 1t is true, at the crisis of North
ern weakness they breathed flames and
scoffed at arbitration, even after learn
ing officially that President Lincoln had
not authorized the act of Capt Wilkes,
and was open to friendly representation.
Yet, before the disunion, no English Min
istry was ever brave in matter for
which bravery was far more urgently
needed, ] refer to the systematic out
