      other European nations , who acknowledged them . Are you afraid of France ? We are not , nor of you either . There is plenty of pluck left in the English people , though some of her politicians may seem apathetic and vacillating . I told you before

      that no power can be more anxious than we are to see the question of the Alabama settled , according to the principles of International law . When it was proposed some time ago that neutral bottoms should make neutral cargoes , it was America that refused to consent to such an equitable arrangement . You talk now as if you were the only party who had anything to complain of with regard to the breach of International law or courtesy during

      the war between North and South . We have claims against you , remember ; claims for ships and cargoes captured and condemned as contraband in the most reckless manner . We have also more serious cause for complaint in the shameless violation of International law by you in the matter of the Fenian Raid on Canada .

      , aaorn your newspaper press , evolve from their inner consciousness , fertile as that well manured field is , any conduct , so disgraceful , in a friendly power , as yours was in encouraging those freebooters and assassins who , in the most public manner , plotted and carried into execution marauding expeditions against our territory . That many of your public men should be hand and

      glove with these amateur felons is not to be wondered at , considering what many of your public men are . But a man of decency might have saved your government from , countenancing these Fenians ; and common good feeling , not to say generosity , might have instigated you to make- some show of

      attempting to stop what you knew was a world-wide scheme of robbery and murder , directed against a power with which you professed to be on friendly terms .

      But X . fear , brother jonatnan , it is not mucn use talking sense to you now . If you are resolved to quarrel , let us fight and have done with it , —perhaps we sha . ll be better friends after the contest ; but do not keep alive on both sides of the Atlantic this feeling of irritation and suspense which exists now . Try and be honest and truthful for once , and give up bounce .
