Walker's Slavery Decree in Nicaragua Sparks Outrage
The New York Sun reports General Walker decreeing slavery in Nicaragua. Editors denounce the act as wicked and dangerous, warn it could provoke uprisings among Nicaraguans and North and South opposition, and predict Walker's downfall as leaders denounce and desert him. The piece also covers reactions from Apicuria, Onlamith, and others, plus broader partisan implications and regional tensions.
