I can discern none.
For the principal fact that Mexico was powerless, was felt and acknowledged by all the world. I know what may be said upon this subject, sir.
Rights may be pushed to their extremes; princi- ples to their utmost bearing And as Mexico had an absolute right, we should have left it to her. I do not deal with such questions, nor with their consequences. I take the public affairs of this world, as they 'are, judging them by the rules of common sense, and pronouncing them just or u...n- just, as they come up to, or recede from, that uni- versal standard.
But, sir, there is one consideration, which ren- ders it proper we should still keep in view the previous vrrongs, which Mexico had inflicted upon us. Her conduct, in. the long progress of these outrages, had established her character. Redress was impossible. Thirty years were, with her, -as one day, and one day as thirty years; for, at the end of that period, we were about where we be- gan, so far as respects satisfaction, while our causes of complaint had gone on accumulating, almost in an inverse proportion, to the lapse of time.
