OR, WHAT WILL WE DO WITH ITf
A HEAT LITTLE WESTERN SlOIiT.
Once upon a time there was a number of
youngsters naughty, of course who became
tired of the restraint placed upon them by
their parents and guardians, and determined
to travel to see the world for themselves. This
they did, for has not Peter Peripatetic written
the history of their singular adventures?
First tl).CJ K'l'eld a bam;
"One said It was n barn,
Another said nay,
The other said H was a church
With the HtpeplecuL away."
This was a joke, aud they all laughed at it
qnite heartily, but In due course of time thoy
tame across a young e'lephant, when
"One said it wan a cow,
Another eald nay,
The other said It was 'Old Nick,'
Aud they all rau away."
This was no joke, and so the boys did not
laugh at it.
lint nil of this is like an event in modern
tiniKK. There has recently been made a treaty
between the "Great Bear of the North" and
the "Hunkee-Doree IJnkl Eagle of 'the West,"
which the latter has been allowed the
privilege of purchasing, for a very small
amount of money, a very large tract of land.
The said tract, called Kussian America, is
like the young elephant nobody knows ex
actly what it is. The question has racked
and divided parties, and has piwzled the
brains of statesmen, diplomatists, editors, and
politicians. No one cn tell what kind of a
bargain has been made, or what advantage
will accrue to us from this gift.
Mr. Johnson, a citizen of Tennessee, looks
upon the cession as a gift. It appears so
cheap that the sum asked can only be re
garded as earnest-money.
Mr. Seward, who has "fixed this little affair
np," thinks that unless we accept the gift of
Kussian America, "no great war can last more
than sixty days," and that it will be neces
sary to bring again into requisition that famous
"little bell." In fact, unless we have Russian
America the Union cannot be saved.
The Czar of all the Russias desires us to
accept his "almost a gift," because he can no
longer take care of it with profit to himself.
It is so isolated, aud then, too, be loves the
Monroe doctrine, and has no doubt that the
"boundless continent is ours." God bless the
lear soul for those few words of comfort !
Napoleon looks upon the matter with pure
nvnchalance. lie is absorbed in his attentions
to the sick Prince Imperial, and the Paris
Exposition.
England fumes over the matter. She sees
danger in the 'ole haffair. By accepting this
gift the continent will be turned into a huge
pair of shears, aud they some day may cut
some poor Giles of an English Prince's love in
twain. Besides, it savors of aggrandisement.
It looks as if Russia desires to divide the
world with the United States ! and that would
be 'orrible to the subjects of her Majesty, "on
oose dominions, by 'eavens, the sun never
gets!"
Senator Sumner, the Chairman of the Senate
Committee on Foreign Relations, thinks the
treaty is a neat thing, and quotes the classic
Perm on treaties generally in support of his
position. Yet he bids us look to the helm,
lest' by avoiding this Scilla (silly ?) rock in
the ocepu'of afl'airs we wreck our ship of state
(the radical party?) on the Charybdis of
Democratic success in the coming campaign.
General llalleck (old Brains) is BUl'e that
Russian America is worth having, and thinks
that the inhabitants of the Pacific will demand
its purchase.
Simon Cameron says "wigwag," and Colo
nel Forney "sees disaster in the whole thing,"
unless more radical inlluences can bo brought
to bear upon "His Accidency."
General Meigs goes into exstacles over the
Dew acquisition, lie wants to see the doings
of the old Norse kings repeated in that coun
try. General Meigs is probably the most
poetio Quartermaster-General that has ever
lived.
Hie New York World thinks Russian
America is a "sucked orange," but the world
18 full of snap judgment.
The Herald thinks it is a "pretty good
egg," and ia probably worth taking as a gift.
The Tribune opines that it would have been
all well enough if we hail carried Connecticut.
The Times, in a "little villauish" way, com
pliments Mr. Seward for his diplomacy iu the
matter.
The Commercial Advertiser is non-committal
like most of our Philadelphia journals. Mr.
Thurlow Weed would not refuse the gift if it
could be shaped into a plank for the new
conservative platform, with Grant aud Parra
gut for the Presidency.
But we must have done. We have got iato
such a labyrinthine muddle over the opinions
of these great men, that we are almost dis-
Sn1prlv sneaking, Tub Evenin.j
TELKGBAru advises a prompt ratification of the
treaty. We can lose nothing by it, and we
may gain much. Teu years ago we could
have had British America for the asking.
We asked not because we thought its posses
sion would not be at once advantageous. Wo
can see now what we have lost a country full
of wealth and vitality. We have gained a viceroy
and a quantity of humiliation. Ten years ago
we could hafS had Mexico, on the promise to
exclude slavery. We refused to do this, and
the result is a country torn and bleeding,
robbed of its richest treasures, and forever
blighted by a robber called an Emperor. The
same of Cuba the same of the whole conti
nent. In line, we ought to have it all as soon
we are sure that we can govern ourselves
properly and keep cutthroats out of office.
