Is this the "comian sepse and fair dealing" of America thus to use foreign aid and to avail itself of every demon- stration of force put forth by others i obtain its own objects? The Americans must be proud of their government, if this be the muse.
But more than this, says the Tribe, "if Great Britain wants to emulate our (American) success she must act as bo- nestly as we do." The force of impu dance could indeed no further go. Why, the very fact of Mr Burlingame receiving hisappointment at all is owing to the moral (but sadly mistaken) support given to the proposition by the British Minister' We leave American political honesty to stand by itself. No condamnatory words of ours are needed to testify to its statuts The bittercet satire ever penned on Ame ries by English pen has failed to elicit the amusement with which this declara tion, has been received by British subjects in Chim and we might also venture t say by American citizens also. It is ab solutely beyond discussion, and tony ba dismissed with the pests of laughter which hare greated its appearance. Thes much for the Tribune!
