Excerpt from An Expose on the Dissentions of Spanish America: Containing an Account of the Origin and Progress of Those Fatal Differences, Which Have Bathed That Country, in Blood and Anarchy; An Explanation of the Social Footing of the Spanish Americans To one, who like yourself, holds in his hands the reins of a government, so much concerned in the political welfare of every nation of the globe, but particularly so, when interest, sympathy, and political engagements add to the bond; of a government, in short, that has sacri ficed so much for the freedom and independence of the States of Europe, and has ever been foremost in the cause of reason, justice, and humanity, it cannot be an unseasonable theme, to dwell on those national interests we have now at stake - to advert to that fund of odium accumulating on our name, and those dangers we, at the same time, incur, by an entire dereliction from our plighted faith, and reiterated and solemn pro7 mises: neither can it be irrelevant here to pour tray the oppression, calamities, and destruction of one entire quarter of the globe, with whose natives we have so long sympathized, and to whose interests we are so closely connectedawhen, at the same time, a safe and consistent remedy is within our reach; a remedy not only in perfect unison with our national honour, and founded on sound and lasting policy, but, moreover, by no means opposed to those very engagements, under which we stand bound to the third party concerned.
