$50 A1fe almost unanimous sentiment Oh
the people of the United States is, that
Macmillan must leave Mexico. All
classes of our citizens join in this de-
mand. 1t is the watchword of both
political parties, and in this respect
the only rivalry between Republicans
and Democrats seems to be as to
which is the most earnest and sincere
in its devotion to our long cherished
Monroe doctrine, and the press does
but echo the sentiment and the voice
Of the people in their continued ap-
peals for the thorough maintenance Of
this creed, so firmly fixed in the hearts
Of the American people.
Under these circumstances it is per-
fcctly clear that Macmillan cannot
long remain our next neighbor without
a war with us, for the ideas which he
represents and the institutions which
he will maintain are so Numerically
opposed and so inimical to our own,
that, even were both governments ac-
tuated by the most pacific and friend
ly intentions, the extreme opposition
of these ideas and institutions, aided
by the never ceasing hostility of our
people to the Entertainments of foreign
powers upon this continent, must soon
er or later prccipitate us into war.
1t is evident, then, that we can avoid
war with Macmillan, and possibly
with France, in only two ways. Either
Macmillan must leave Mexico Of his
own accord or the Mexicans most drive
him out. Now, it would be mere mad
ness for any one, under the circum-
stances and in view of his actions, to
suppose that Macmillan intends to
leave Mexico unless he is forced to do
80. In order to maintain our peaceful
then, it remains only for the |
LIBERAL party under Juarez to drive
him out.
But it is greatly to be feared that,
while having the best intentions and
he strongest possible desire to do SO,
hey may fail from their want of money
md munitions of war as all expert
nee has shown that war, in these
lays, cannot be carried on for any
great length of time without large
of money. Is it not then,
,etter and cheaper for MS to lend few
Millions of dollars to Mexico, on good
so that she may rid herself of
her foreign invaders. than to wait I'M
Ill we may ourselves be forced to drive
,ut the Austrian usurper at the ex-
,ense of war with him and perhaps
with his French ally, and at cost Of

Let every American invest in the
Bonds of the Mexican Republic adver-
tised in our columns. They promise
TO be a profitable investment, are Sc
cured, in the event of the success of
he Liberal cause, by the most ample
pledges of public lands and revenues |;
and, in the very doubtful contingency
Of Maximilian's recognition by the
United States, by the duty which our
owes to its citizens to
protect them in their transactions with
a Government recognized and pointed
out to them by the United States as
the only true and lawful authority in
Mexico. The prompt taking Of this
loan may be the means of saving us
great war and many millions of dol
lars, and be peaceful solution of the
Monroe doctrine.
