try? How long before she would have Mexico and Texas in the condition she has placed old Spain? And after we have stood supinely by, and seen her avail herself of the weakness of our sister republics, exhausted by wars with each other, to interpose ln their settlement of differences, how can we expect her not to take the lions share of the spoil of this hemisphere, as she has of all the conti- nents, and of all the isles of all the seas of the world dread England's rapacity. She hates the United States: we alone upon earth, stand in the way of her domination she is wise, crafty, and hypocritical, and has party of fanatics among ourselves, composed of partly political and partly religious cru saders against our constitution and forms of government, 10 aid her power, unparalleled in the history of nations. There is but one stand to be taken, and l am for taking that stand immediately. It is the stand of MT. Monroe, when, during his administration, the HelyAlliance audaciously threatened to dis pose of some other American destlnles. It was then that in calm and sublime dignity, he warned the crowned heads of Europe, that the United States would not submit to t.Ieir unauthorized interference in American affairs, either north or south of the equator He, in effect, told Europe that legitimacy should not be allowed foothold on the vir- gin soil of the continent of republics; that the republics of the new were united, by d common instinct, against either the open or msiduous aggressions of the kings of the old world That they should not, under any pretext-and the pretext is now to abolish slavery-extend their Sldrery over any DOT ton of American lands, laid out for a heritage of the free; that Americans of every border should be left to the regulations and disposi- ton of their own affairs; that if the Holy Alliance nterposed on the one hand, the United States would on the other. So would say now to England: < ! ou shall not interpose at all, to the injury of, or inter ference with our institutions, in any way whatever: if you do, 1t shall be at your peril and cost. will defend my own institutions, at least against your intervention" How 1?
