[EAN: 9781528470346], New book, [PU: Forgotten Books], Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****. Excerpt from Review of the Relations Between the United States and Mexico, and of the Claims of Citizens of the United States Against Mexico With such discordant views of their mutual rights and obligations, it is idle to hope that the two parties can arrive at an amicable and pacific ad justment of their differences. For either to yield, would be to submit, without a struggle, to all the consequences of an unsuccessful war, and to abandon every ground which has been deliberately and publicly as sumed. The American government cannot retrace its steps. It cannot annul the compact by which Texas has become bone of our bone, and flesh of our ?esh. It cannot admit that its conduct merits the harsh epithets which have been applied to it by Mexico and her friends. As little can she retract what she has so repeatedly urged on the subject of the claims of her citizens for remuneration and indemnification. She has proclaimed that, in the perpetration of the outrages of which she com plains, Mexico has violated our just rights, and that it is the paramount duty of the government to afford ample protection to her citizens, and to enforce, if necessary, with all the power of the nation, full compensation for the wrongs they have sustained from a foreign power. She has sanc tified and solemnized the obligation growing out of the relation of govern ment and citizen, by the most deliberate assurances that this obligation is recognized, and the most distinct pledges that his duty shall be fulfilled. In this posture of things, it seems vain to expect that specific relations can long subsist between the two nations. Each professes to have grounds of complaint against the other, which it asserts to be just and reasonable; and each has pledged itself to maintain its rights at every hazard. Temporary causes may intervene, and prevent an immediate resort to arms by either power; but the causes of war cannot be removed, and they must continue to increase in number and to augment in strength, till they bear down every barrier which wisdom or policy may interpose to prevent the final catastrophe.
