Under Its counsels Pierce not only surrendered to the ambitions of the slave power for expansion over the north and west, but also for Its expansion Into foreign lands. Slavery was In Its last throes everywhere. Great Britain had abolished It In her West Indian islands, Mexico had abolished It next door to our own slave states. Even Spain was tending toward the freeing of the slaves In Cuba when the American ministers to Great Britain, France and Spain met In Belgium and Issued the Ostend manifesto." That shameful document proclaimed the threat that If the Spanish government should refuse to sell os Cuba we would take the Island by force. At the same time congress at home was repealing the Missouri compromise and wiping out the dead line against slavery, which had been drawn a qunrter of a century before. This threw open Kansas to a wild scramble between settlers who wlBhed the new territory to be free and those who wished it to be slave. Then and there the Civil war began. "Border ruffians, as the north called the settlers, who rushed In from Missouri and other slave states, and no less rough In their fighting who poured In from .the free states, quickly turned that prlmevul Into Rival territorial Bleeding Kansas. governments were set up by the two factions, and Pierce threw the weight of the federal power on the side of Burden of Public Debts.
