But we know what fe said in the Uni States, and what the cir- cumetances, #0 faras they are yet ascertained, do not con- tradict. Lord Palmerston is held to be answeraole. “When,” says a New York pever. {the Heratn), suppored to know very well what the opinions of the Cabinet of Washington are, “when Lord Palmerston found that he could not compel Louis Napoleon to desist from his scheme of apprenticeship—the slave trade revived—he detez- mined to make a great fuss about the slave question in other quarters, in order to attract attention from his fail- ure ip with the French Emperor’s plan. The suppression of the slave trade is but a pretence—a subter- fuge on the part of Palmerston—to carry out his double purpose of screening his own failure and indulging his spleen against the United States.” Whether this be the true solution or not time will show.
