TEE OSTEND CONFERENCE
CUBA AT ANY COST
We publish below the report of Messrs. Buch
anan, Mason and Soule, the gentlemen who com
posed the celebrated conference at Ostend, in
October last. The conference was preceded by
a correspondence consisting of letters from Mr.
Moray to Mr. Soule and -Mr. Buchanan, extend
ing from July, 1853, to August 16, 1864. 'lntim
letter of that date to Mr. Soule, Mr. Marcy sug
gests a meeting of the three gentlemen at some
convenient place, that they may consult togeth
er and adopt measures for perfect concert of ac
lion in aid of the negotiations of Mr. Soule at
Madrid. . The ministers selected Ostend, in Bel
gium, at which place the flret consultation was
held. They subsequently met at Aix Le Cha
pelle, at which they concluded their delibera
tions, and thence they addressed to this govern
.ment the following report of their visite and con
oluelons.
A= LA CHAPELLB, Oct. 18;1864.
To the How Wm. L. MARC; Secretary of State:
Sia: The undersigned, in compliance with the
wish expressed by the President In the seversi
confidential dispatches you' have addressed to us
respectively to that effect, have met in wafer
ence, first at Ostend In Belgium, on the 10th and
11th inst., and then at Am Ls Chapelle in Prus
sia, on the days next following up the date
thereof.
We hare arrived at the ionclusiori and are
thoroughly convinced that . an Immediate and
earnest effort ought to be made by the govern
ment of the United States to purchase Cuba from
Spain at any price for which it can be obtained,
not exceeding the sum of - dolltirs.
The proposal should, in oar opinion, be made
in such a manner as to be presented through the
necessary diplomatic form to the Supreme Con
stitutional Cortes about to be assembled. On
this momentous question, in whhilt 'the people
both of 'Biala and the United States are so deep
ly interested, all our proceedings ought to be
'open, frank and public. They' shatild behf such
chiracter as to challenge the approbation of
the world.
We firmly believe that In the' progress of hu
man events the time has arrived when the vital'
interests, of Spain are as seriously involved in
the We as those of the United Btatesle the pur
chase of the island, and that the transaction will
prove equally honorable to both nations.
Under these circnmstanees, we cannot antioi- .
pete a failure, unless possibly through the ma
lignant influencir of foreign pOwers who possess
nuright whatever to interfere in the matter.
• :We proceed t 9 State sour of the , reasons which
hivi brought us to this conclusion ;sad, for the
sake of clearness, we shall specify them under
two distinct heads:
'First. The United States ought, if practica
ble, to purchase Cuba with as little delayae pow.
eible.
Second. The probability is great that the Gov
ernment and Cortes of Bpaiwwill proto willing
to sell it, becauseehis would essentially promote
the highest and beet-interests of the Splualsh
people. s.
The fat—it must be clear to every redacting
mind that, from the peculiarity of its ph
ical position and the considerations afleadant on
it, Cubs is as necessary to the North American
Republic as any of its present members, sad
that It belongs naturally to that great family of
States of which the Union is the providential
nursery.
From its locality it commands the mouth' of
She Mississippi, and the Immense annually in
4easing trade Which must seek this avenue to
'the Ocean. On the numerous navigable streams
Sensuring an aggregate course at some 80,000
mfies, which disembogne themselves through
`this magnificent river into Gulf of Mexico,
the increase of the population within the last
ten yea rs amounts to more thou that of the en;
lire Union at the timo Louisiana waa annexed tole
The natural and main - Outlet to the products
of this entire population, the highway of their
direct intercourse with the Atlantic and the Fa
(die States can never be secure, but must over
be endangered while Cuba is a dependency of a
'distinct power, in whose possession it has proved
to be a source of constant annoyance an 4 em
,barraesment to their interests.
Indeed, the Union can never enjoy repoie, nor
*sates reliable iecarity, so loniput Cabals-Ant
embiiiend within its boundaries.
Its immediate acquisition by our goverament
is of paranzoimt importance, and wo cannot
doubt but that it is a consummation devoutly
wished for by its inhabitants.
The intercourse which its proximity to our
coasts begets and encourages between the citi
zens of the United States has in the progress of
time so united their interests and blended their
fortunes, that the now look upon each other as
if they were one People and had but one destiny.
Considerations exist which reeler delay in
the acquisition of this island -exceedingly dan
gerous to the Unitpd.Btates.
The system of immigration and labor lately
organized within Its limits, and the tyranny and
oppression which characterise its immediate ru
lers threaten an insurrection at every moment,
'Which may result in direful consequences to the
American people.
Cuba has thus become to us au unceasing
danger and a permanent cause of anxiety and
alarm.
Bat wo need not enlarge on Mum topics. It
can scarcely be apprehended that foreign pow
ers, in violetion of International law, would in- I
terpose their influence with Epain to prevent oat
acquisition - of tho Island.. Its inhabitants are I
nos suffering under the worst of all possible
governmente—that of absolute deepotiant, dele
gated by a distant power to irresponeiblo agents
who are changed at ohort intervals, and who'are
tempted to , Improve the brief opportunity thus
afforded to accumulate fortunes by the basest
As long as this system shall endure; ittmanity
May in vein demand the suppression 'of the Af
rican slave trade in the Island. This is rendered
impossible while that infamous trate remains
an irresistablo' temptation_ and a source of Ml
meneo profit to needy and avaricious officials;
who, to attain their end, sample not to trample
tie most sacred principles under foot --
The Spanish government at home May , be
well disposed; but experience has proved that it
cannot control these remote depositories of ihr
Besides, the commercial- nations of the world
cannot fail to perceive and appreciate 'the great
advantages which ,wonld result their people
from n dissolution of tho forced and unnatural
cognectior6 bot*oen Spew and' Bribe, and the
annexation of the latter to the United Stites.=
The trade ofeEnglecul and France with Cuba
would, in that event, assume at once an imivr
tent and profitable character, and extend
with the Increasing population and prosperity
Of the Island. . _
But if the ,llnlied States and every commeri
eial. nation be benefitted by this transfer; the hi.
tercets of Spain would also be 'greatly, and elk

Cuba, in its palmlest days, never yielded ber
exchequer, after deducting the expenses of its
government, a clear annual income of more than
a million and a half of dollars. These expenses
hare increased to such a degree as to leave a de
ficit chargeable on the treasury of Spain to the
amount of $600,000.
in a pecuniary point of view, therefore, the
Island is an Incumbrance, Instead of a Bonne of
pmfd, to the mother country. •
Under no probable circumstance can Cuba
ever yield to Spain one per cent. on the large
amount which tho United States are willing to
pay for its acquisition,
But Spain is in imminent danger of losing
Cuba without remtmerbtion.-
Extreme oppression, it is now universally ad
mitted, justifies any people in endeavoring to re
lieve themselves from the yoke of their oppres
sors.
The sufferings which the corrupt, arbitrofey
and unrelenting local administration necessarklr
entails upon the inhabitants of Cuba,cannat fail
to stimulate and keep alive - that spirit ef resift
ance and revolution against Spain which has Of
late years been so often manifested. In this
condition of affairs, it is vain to expect that the
sympathies of the United States will not be warm
ly enlisted in favor of theiroppressed neighbors.
We know that the President is justlylnflexible
in his determination to execute the neutrality
laws, bun should the Cubans themielves rise in
revolt against the oppression which they suffer,
do human power could prevent citizens of the
United States, and liberal-minded men, of other
countries, from rushing to their assistance.
Besides, the present is an age of adventure, in
which restless and daring spirits aborted in every
portion of the world. It is not - tmpeolsable,
therefore, that Caba may be wrested from Spain '
by a seccessful revolution, end to that event she
will not only lose the Island, but the price which
we are now willing to pay for it—a price far be
yond what was ever paid by one people to anoth
er for any . province.
It may &blob° remarked that the settlement of
this vexed question by the cession of Cuba to
.the United States would forever prevent the dan
gerous complications between nations to which
it may otherwise giro birth. • •
It is certain that should the Cubans them
selves organize an insurrection againstthe Span
ish Government, and should other independent
nations come to the aid of Spain is the contest,
no human power could, in our opinion, prevent
the people and government of the United States
from taking part Meath civil war in support of
their neighbors and friends.
Bat it Spain,-deaf to the voice of bet own In
tercet, and actuated by stubborn pride and a
false sense of honor, should refuse .to sell Cuba
to the United States,then the question will arise
what ought to be the course of the American
governments:leer such eircutostaniest
Self-preservation is the first law of nature with
States es wall as with individuals. All nationii
hare at different periodsaoted upon this nmzim.
Although it has been made the pretext for cont
mitting flagrant injustice, as in the 'partition of
Poland and other similar, eases which history re-
Cords, yet the principle. itself, . though often
abused; has always hien recognised: •
•
The United States have never acquired a (cot
. of territory exr.eptby fair purchase, or, as in the
case of Texas, upon
,the free and voluntary ap-,
plicistion of the people of that independent State,
who desired to blend their destinies with our
-Even our acquisitions from 'Mexico eireito

.•.eption to the rule, bemuse althengh we Might
have claimed them by the. right of .congeuttit; in
a just way, yet we purchased them for whet was
then considered by both vertices full end' am
'pie equivalent. '
Our peat hlstory forbids that we should en
quire the Island of Cuba without the mead of
Spain, unless justified by the great law of self
preservation. We must, in tiny event, preserve
our own conscious rectitude and our own self
reapect.
Whilst pursuing this course, we can afford to
disregard tho censures of the world, hr which we
hare been.co often and so, cutjustly exposed.
After we shall luiee offered Spain a, price for
Cuba far beyond its present lain, and thisehall
have been refased, it will then be time to eon-,
eider the question, does Cuba in the possession
of Spain aeriausly endanger our internal peace
and the existence of our cherished Union ?
- Slicerid this question be answered in the aflir
=air°, then by every law, huirtan and,divine,
we shall be justified in wresting it from Spain,
if we ,passese the power. And this raped the
very ; same principle that would justify .an brit
vidnal In tearing down the burning houses of his
neighbors if there was no other means of pre
venting the flames from destroying his own home.
Under inch circumstances we ought neither Co
count the cost nor regard the-odds which Spain
might enlist against-us. We forbear to enter I
into the question whether the present condition
of the Island would .justify such a measure.
We should, however, be recreaut to our duty, be
unworthy of our gallant forefathers, and com
mit base treason against our posterity, should
we permit Cuba to be Africanized and become a I
second St. Domingo, with all its attendant hor
n:vs to the white race, and suffer the Hams to 1
extend tor our neikthboring shores, seriously to
endanger or actually to contains the fair fabric
of our Union.
We fear that the course sad current of events
are rapidly tending towards such a catastrophe..
We, however, hope for the best, though we ought
certainly be prepared for the worst.
We forbear also to investigate the present con
dition of the question at issue between the Uni
ted States and Spain. A long series of injuries
to our people have been committed in Cube by
Spanish officials, and are unredreasod; but re 7
cently s most flagrant outrage on the rights of
American citiiens and on the flag of the United
States was perpetrated, in the harbor of Havens,
Under circumstances which, without immediate

urea of 'war in vindication of national hofior.
.That outrage is not only unitaned, but: the Span

acts of its subordinates, andassumed the ttelloh

VOLUME LXVIII-MIVIBM . 169.
By a free and friendly intercourse among offi
cial and influential men, you will be enabled to
determine the proper course to be punned in
regard to opening negettations for the acquisi
tion of Cuba;
Should yen find persone.ol position or leen
ence 'clisposiid:to.converso on that subject—the
considerations in rev:Tref a fairsale are so many
and so strong' that those who can be brought to
listen would be very likely to bearme converts to
' the measure. , But should your have reason to be
lieve that the men in power are averse to enter
taining such a proposition—that the offer of it
would be offensive to- the national pride of Spain,
and that it would find no favor in any consider
able classof the people, then it would be but too
evident that the time for opening or attempting
such a negotiation dad net yet arrived. It ap
pears to the President ttat nothing, could be
gained, arrdlemethlng might tie lost, by an at
tempt to push on a negotiation against such a
general resistance. This view of the-case Is ta
ken on the . supposition that you flail become
convinced that a proposition for the - cession of
Cuba would certainly be. rejeeted. '
The language of somepart of the report might,
. perhaps be so construed as to sustain the infer
ence that you and your associates in the confer
enoe, were of oPinion that the proposition should
be made, though there should be no chance of
its being entertained, and that it should be ac-
eomponied with the open deeLsratlon oft' eigniti
cant seggestion,..that the:United States were de
.
termined'to have . the Island, and would , obtain it
by other means, should their present advances,
so advantageous to Spain be refined by her, but
other parte of the report repel this Inference.
The remark in that docament..that if Spain
should refuse these proposals of the United
States, 'the question wiltruise, What, ought to
be the course of the kmerican"Government Un
der such circumstances?" clearly sh - oWs that it
was not intended by yourself and colleagues,
to
recommend to the President to offer to Spain the
alternative of cession of seizure. The, conclu
sion' that the members of the coefirence were
against such an alternative proposition, is also
drawn from the followingpamagc-- '
. "After washall have offered Spain a price for
Cuba, far beyond its present value, end this
shall hare been refused, it will then , booms to
consider the
.question DOesCuba r In the pos.
session of Spain, seriously endanger our internal
pea* and thetiaistence of our cherished Unionl"
The President concurs In this viewer the sub
ject. But ta.cpitolude that, on the rejection of a
proposition to. cede,:seiztire should ensue, would
be to=nun& Unit self-preservation necessitates.
the acquisition of Cuba by the United' States--
that Spain has refined, and will persist refu
sing our reclamation for injuries and' wrongs
inflicted, and that she will make no arrangement
for our future security against the recurrence of
and wrongs.
As to the first consideration I will, only re
mark that the acquisition of Cuba by the United
Stites. would be pmerninently advantageous in
itself, and of the, bighcst importance BS aprecau-
tionary Mommie ofsecurity.. However much we
might rogret. the want of suCcesa in. our, efforts

of the .151tid,:invelve imminent-peril to the ex
istence of our Government.. But IMotdd the con
tiogenoy suggested in - your report ever arise,
there is no reason to doubt that the cane will be
promptly met by- the deliberatS - Xdgment and
decisive
.action of the American people- -'
lirelation to outrages and injuries, this gov
ernment have gO6d ground to comidaha. of the
coilrao hitherto Imisued by Spain, and should
that course be persisted in it would be justified
in resorting-to coercive means to obtain redress.
But the aspect of this branch of the subject has
howeirer, lately somewhat changed The pros
"'eat Cabinet of Spain has indicated a more favor
able disposition in regard to demands for satis
faction and indemnity than that Whiclrpreeeded
it.
I do not attachmuchimportance to the recent
offer, on the , part of Spain to institute n commis
.
sin to Settle al . .. existing claims, such al. how
exist between the United States and Great Brit
ain, because son:mot the clainis are of inch a
character as self respect would not- permit us
to submit to arbitrament iA any tom.—
You are, therefore, instructed to deo li ne that of=
fer. -
But as to the most Aggravated as well as the
moat recent ease of.outrage and injury—that of
the Bleck IYarrior--the door to adjustment can
hardly bo considcTed as closed.- Although. the
late Spanish Minister of Foreign Relations re
jected our demands in that wise, the present Min-
inter has distinctly indicatedt u:i lwillingness to re
cede from the position of his predecessor: Be
askedfor our . T lows in writ' g upon 'the' reply
which his Goverment had made to our denitinds ,
and accompanied. his request With an assurtnee
that "he would take it into most serious corisid
eration,-and -act-upon it." After the refisal to
comply with that request, this goaernMent would
not be in a situation to maintainahat Spain per
sists in denying all satisfaction in the "ease of
Bleak Warrior..
• ' -
Should the Government of Spain recede from
the grounds taken in Mr. Calderon's note to you
of. the 7th of May last, disapprove of the . conduct
of the authorities at Havana in the easo'of 'the
Black Warrior, disavow their acts, - she* in an
appropriate mannerita dispiessura, towards them
on that account; and offer full indemnityfor the
lasses and injuries wbich our citizens sustained

that event you will .be tarnished with proper

will stop at the adjustment of the cue of the
Black Warrior. Our citizens have many other
claims originating from the Conduct of her offi
