Ostensibly carrying out the provisions of the treaty. it aibs at discouraging GermanAmericats from returning to the old ctutry except at the risk of renouanciug the protection of the United States and saerificing their American citizenship. Ylr. George Bancroft is a lerted and ableinau. Hohaslargeif not wise expericece in diplomacy. but he is no match when pitted against mien like Baronfhicle. the German undersceretaryof foreign affairs. or Lochar Bucher. Bismiarcks privy councilor. And as compared in statecraft with Prince Bismarek himself. Mr. lBaneroft vainishes. Under these influences Mr. Bancroft was induced to consent to the treaty and sign away the rights of nearly two millions of naturalized citizens. ad change the declared policy of the American Republic. Even our Senate. I might say even our favdrite Senator.
