" Manifest Dostlny."
EmTon TJur.LF.Tis:
This Star lins within a few days
devoted two artiolos to an olucida
tion of llio alxivo inelaneholj chost
ntit, and it is possible that future
platitudos will find themselves hung
nit the same old peg.
"Manifest destiny" was old, as a
shibboleth, when Pharaoh com
manded tlio Israelites to make bricks
without straw, and has come down
through the ages as the rusty
weapon of superstition and tyrauuy
alike, thu idiom of ancient barbarity
aud modern despotism. It was the
sort of fantastic expression that
nerved the iron heel of Atilla to
trample on human rights, and seut
Vigihn to the stake. Every corrup- jf
(ion and injustice which has cast an
evil shadow over humanity from the
days of Moloch down to modem
prodostinarianistn, under which Cal
vin roasted his heretic, has had its
root in this hoary barnacled aphor
ism, "manifest destiny."
The Roman patrician used to
throw a live serf into his fish-pond
as food for the lampreys that made
a dainty dish for his dinuer, aud
when a meddlesome emperor pro
hibited this good old custom, he
was a badly aggrieved patrician, and
considered" that his liberty was un
justly interfered with. Ho acknow
ledged that it might be unpleasant
for the serf who was eaten alive, but
iho exigencies of a Roman noble
man's uiiiner demanded the sacri
fice, and the whole affair was, of
course, ordered by "manifest des
tiny. In France, in the ancient
days of feudalism, there existed a
statute which ret forth with much
grotesque language that "a Seigneur,
when lie comes nome weary from
hunting, may kill not more than two
Serfs to comfort his Feet with their
warm Blood aud Bowels,'' and this
was aKo manifest destiny, in tne
opinion of one party to the trans
action, until the other party rose up
in a homicidal mood and declined
to supply the comforting material
any longer. The other party is al
ways the stumbling-block in auy
such arrangement. Ho persistently
refuses to look upon the matter
from the same standpoint as his pro
visional master, and even the boss
prophet of the Star will sooner or
later have his attention drawn to
this circumstance.
When Minister Stevens, aided by
land-sharks aud mortgage-mongers
who have fastened their tentacles on
this country, raised their banner of
annexation, they labored to produce
the impression, both here and ill the
United States, that all efforts in
opposition to their project would
prove an ineffectual struggle against
fate. National men sotight in vain
to reason with the maniacs who
were rushing off in the Claudine
with the oiler of a nation to
which they had no title. It did
not take the pre-s aud public of
the United States long to discover
that the project bv which Minister
Stevens sought to foist this kingdom
on his countrymen as a diviuely
fore-ordained gift, had "Manifest
Robbery" written all over it.
A little less than half a century
ago this cry of "manifest destiny
had some significance for the Ameri
can pooyje. The planter of the
Southern States then saw in the
rapiil rise of the free states a menace
to the existence of tho peculiar in
stitution upon which their pros
perity depended. Thus it was that
they cast longing eyes upon adjacent
territory on the continent, and even
the annexation of Cuba and some
smaller islands was freely spoken
of, in the hope of finding in the
newly acquired territory allies with
which to light tho abolitionists in
Congress. The civil war, however,
proved the destruction of thu annex
ation policy in more ways than one.
It convinced the more discriminat
ing and sober minds, that there were
social problems, arising from a too
heterogeneous population, aud other
causes, which could bo rendered
more complex by the addition of
foreign territory "and alien people,
ami just here it should lie slated,
that the Hawaiiaus would be the
most readily absorbed of all tho
non-Anglo-Saon races into the
American system by reason of his
American schooling. Hut it has
pleased the hard-shull annexation
drummer to report to the American
oeople l lint the Hawaiian nation,
from the Queen down, are 6o utterly
immoral as to be past praying for,
aud thai prove- to be a sulliciunt
reason why the American people
don't want the Hawaiian or his
couutiy not even if tho offer of it
came from thu Hawaiian himself.
Hard Iving, as usual, has defeated
itself.
The acquisition of Alaska, which
has so often been quoted, cuts no
figure in illustrating the caso of Ha
waii. It was pait of the American
mainland, with stores of wealth in
its mines, rivers aud forests. Its
population was chiefly peaceable
Indians, aud neither they nor tho
few Russian citizens offered auy ob
jection to the change. It is un
necessary to point out how com
pletely "wanting are all these i good
features in the case of Hawaii; yet,
the purchase of Alaska found hut
little favor with the people, aud had
it not been for Sumner's ahlu efforts
in its favor, and a vague impression
created by the annexationists in
the Senate '-that Russia had inn
critical time promised to stand by
the United Mates, ami that there
fore it would lie ungracious not to
complete the bargain privately no-
gottatod U) thu two governments, it
would have fallen through. With
thu acquisition of Alaska came a
