SummaryResumen
According to *The New York Herald* on April 30, 1865, European monarchies were described as quaking with fear over the growing strength of the United States and its potential impact on Spanish possessions like Cuba and Porto Rico. The article specifically cited a fearful argument presented by the "Conqueror of Africa," which claimed the United States planned to send thousands of freed colored people to St. Domingo to form a negro nationality and army to ultimately attack and destroy Cuba. The newspaper dismissed this theory as a "raving of an imagination entirely possessed by fear," asserting that no dilatory measures would be needed if the United States truly intended to conquer European possessions.
Según *The New York Herald* del 30 de abril de 1865, las monarquías europeas temblaban de recelo ante el creciente poderío de los Estados Unidos y sus posibles repercusiones en las posesiones españolas de Cuba y Puerto Rico. El artículo citó en particular un medroso alegato esgrimido por el «Conquistador de África», quien aseguraba que los Estados Unidos proyectaban enviar a miles de libertos de color a Santo Domingo a fin de constituir una nacionalidad y un ejército negros con el propósito final de asaltar y arrasar a Cuba. El diario desestimó dicha teoría como el «desvarío de una imaginación presa del pánico», asegurando que los Estados Unidos no necesitarían recurrir a maniobras indirectas si de veras abrigaran el propósito de conquistar posesiones europeas.

nclnded, but the prospective danger to the
slands of Cuba and Porto Rico?the only re
naining pearls of the Spanish crown?from the
jvershadowing influence of this republic. Thus
the great war against the rebellion, which all
lie nations of Europe supposed would end in
,he doath of the only vigorous democratic commonwealth
of the world, has only causod it to
sax stronger and more irresistible than ever,
10 that, flrom being too prompt to rejoice in
the beginning of the struggle, the effete and
tottering monarchies ot the Old World are now
quaking and shaking in their boots at the mere
apprehension of its future progress. Their
theories as to the ultimate designs of the
United States are, howevor, not always correct,
rhoy are dictated by fear, and are therefore
presontcd in the most fantastic forms. Hear,
for instance, the arguments of the "Conqueror
of Africa:"?"The United States," he says,
'now about to liberate their slaves, but anxious
to keep as few of them as possible, will find It
an easy and slmplo plan to send those thousands
of colored people to St Domingo," to
form a great negro nationality and army there,
and then, one day or the other, to march this
force against Cuba, and with the toroh of the
Incendiary to destroy the immense wealth collected
there! This is the raving of an imagination
ontlroly possessed by fear. Were the United
States disposed to conquor Cuba or any other
European possession on this oonHnent, no dilatory
measures of preparation would be necessary.
