Old Bennety says:

‘ "We do not believe the Emperor of the French will take any step hostile or injurious to us, unless the English Government leads the way. Should England enter into any such dangerous career, she will rue the day that her rulers have committed her to a deadly struggle with this young giant Republic."

’ The Lord have mercy upon us! England rue the day when she enters into a struggle with the "Bull Runners!" Possibly she might, if the question were of a quarter race or a race against time, for the English are a plethoric generation. But they have innumerable packs of greyhounds, and though they may not get near enough to shoot a Yankee, they can catch any number of prisoners with these animals. Let not Bennett trust too much to Yankee fleetness. Let him not be led astray by the pedestrian feats of Ball Run.
