Of damages resulting from the depredatlons

land. it will for England be u Sood bargain;
we soyn good bargain; for, look you, the real
DAMAGES to us, directly and indirectly result
inr from England'S one-sidcd neutrality, SIS
an aIly of ,Jcil. Davis, may he safely set down
~ not less than thousand millions OF dol
lars. England's moral and nateriai anu 10
Davis prolonged his war for southern CON
frdcrlcy at least II year longer IMAM olhel-
wise it would have lasted : and THIS lacl was
the general idea of the American people when
thi. treaty of Washington was concluded, ana
with their general endorsement.
And why? Because they believed ana
believe that peace with England is better
and will he better than war for us, for Eng
land. and for the world ; because peace for
ms will he better than thousand or ten thou
sand millions gained by war with England
better than all her Maiesty's North American
possessions gained. as they would he gained,
from such Il war. Hence this treaty of wash
ingtou, for which, on those Alabama claims,
we surrender all constructive or indirect
damages in consideration of England 5
apology and those three new rules OF neu-
tralitv which she agrees shall be applied TO
the Alabama and her pisltical cOntcderateS.
we would therefore submit to our British
CONTEMPORARIES of the press that this ull-
scem!v rage ut our bill OF costs for Eng!and's
folly is only that of the mean fellow, who,
after enjoying glorious nights frolic, de-
MES the extra beer and the broken Dishes
