Pompey, on his side, no doubt took the question into consideration whether or no he should declare the Parthian prince a Roman enemy, and proceed to direct against him the available forces of the Empire. He had purposely made him hostile, and compelled him to take steps which might have furnished a plausible casus belli.
It is difficult to see that a real casus belli existed. We only know that both parties wanted to fight, whatever were their excuses and pretensions; and both parties sought the friendship of Russia and France, especially by holding out delusive hopes to Napoleon of accession of territory.
Wilson had to explain away his unlucky speech at Philadelphia, no action was taken from the German side, and no information given him which might lead him to understand that Germany desired to avoid a casus belli at all costs, for fear of giving Mr. Wilson an opportunity to gain a cheap triumph over Germany in a verbal wrangle. I believe it unjust to Mr.
Upon O'Flynn's first draught he turned to his next neighbour: "Potts, me bhoy, 'tain't s' bad." "I'll bet five dollars it won't make yer any happier." "Begob, I'm happy enough! Gentlemen, wud ye like I should sing ye a song?" "Yes." "Yes," and the Colonel thumped the table for order, infinitely relieved that the dinner was done, and the punch not likely to turn into a casus belli.
Uncle Sam is in an ugly humor and will suffer no legitimate casus belli to be side-tracked by arbitration. He is "dead tired" of having the European ants get on him of being harried by petty powers whom he knows full well he could wipe from the map of the world.
This region lay very remote from the Mountain-men's villages, but, as it approached the mountain base in a round-about manner, and as the mountain-tops could be distinctly seen from the region, although well-nigh impassable swamps still lay between the reclaimed lands and the mountain base, these advances were regarded as another casus belli, and another war was waged, with practically the same results damage to everybody concerned, and good to no one.
But, while this is true, the United States has had in the past abundant experience of disputes, in which, though she believed herself right, even to the point of having a just casus belli, the other party has not seemed to share the same conviction.
Suddenly the casus belli, as usually happens, arose of its own accord. The last but one of the chained line was an old gray-headed man, followed by a slender graceful girl of some eighteen years old, and Amyas's heart yearned over them as they came up.
With a vicious administration by a nation of decaying prestige were all elements promising success to the invader. The covert and dastardly destruction of the U. S. warship "Maine" in Cuban waters, the offspring of Spanish suspicion of American designs, was all, and more than required, to inaugurate a "causi belli" and complete the conquest of the island.
We know he took it over and saw it into the trucks. Then there was no more Click then or thereafter. Four months ago it transpired, and thus the casus belli stands at present," said Pyecroft. "What were his marks?" said Hooper again. "Does the Railway get a reward for returnin' 'em, then?" said Pritchard. "If I did d'you suppose I'd talk about it?" Hooper retorted angrily.
