John Morley: “In England, the national attitude has been admirable.”

I would use my best endeavours to make these States independent in matters of administration.

I think they will commit a great error if they take this course.

But we have no right to cast on him any responsibility beyond what is strictly military.

What I wish to insist upon is, not that that system was good, but that the statesman who undertook to overthrow it, should have had something to put in its place.
