London, Wednesday, March ...
WVe believe, that in regard to the politics of this country towvardls thc states of South America, the speech of Lord Livr.tirooi. oni Aloi:day nighV will have created no dis- agreeable sensation throughout this counitry. WVe practi- cally acknowledge the independc-nce of the new States; wc trade with thln ; we station Constls in their ports ; and, at the momcnt that we publicly attest the inability of the mother coutitry to recover her ancient possession of them, we declare that we sball not sufficr a tlhird Power to inter- fere. Tiic States of South America, we should conceive, can want nothing more from us than this ; and If they aye content, the fiiends of freedom in England nmay be content likewise. Clould our refusal to acknowledge their indle- pentlence prevent or suspend the attainment of that bless- ing, then, indeed, they would have reason t complain, and their more ardenit friends in England miglht with justice re-echo their cries; but as they tnay be perfectly free without our taking any public or formal notice of the fact, it appears that we have nothing miiore to do, for ei:hcr their convenience or ours, than to treat themn exactly as they are-as we find thetu, 'witltout troubling ourselves to de- clare wlhat they are eitlher to others or to_thelnselves. f.jNDOJA', JEDYES.L'A1, MARCH 17. 18-24.
