Excerpt from Notes on the Scots' Darien Expedition: Taken From Books and Contemporary Pamphlets in My Possession, June 1888 These Notes have been compiled without any reference whatever to present politics in the United Kingdom, nor have they any relation to the Panama Canal scheme, which is of such vital importance to France. Everyone reading them must be struck with the fact that the failure of the Darien scheme, two centuries ago, showed that the union of England and Scotland was an absolute necessity. Who knows but that the possible financial failure of the present Panama Canal Company may have an equally potent and unexpected influence on French politics?
