Mr. President, the bills which engage the at tention of CoogreflJ generally originate either in the Senate or in the'Hooso of Representatives. Bnt this measure is ushered IntCjoar presence by a Message from the Executive palace. It is, therefore, in its origin no- Exioutive measure. Its nature corresponds to Its parentage. It pro poses iofofar oonstitutlonal wad legislative re straints upon the Executive power, and to trans fer oontrol over the Treasury, together with the ] lower of negotiation in foreign affairs, from • longress and from the Senate to the President of the United Btates. It is not an isolated Ex eoulivemeasure of Lhis.-kittd, but ilia ono of a series of snob measures l which the President of the United Btates has Introduced at the present session in the samo way. One of this series proposes that Congress shall authorize the Pres ident to more the Army and the Navy of the United States ioto adjacent States of the Repub lio of Mexico and establish a Protectorate thero. Another asks onr consent to invest the Presldeut of the United States with power to make war in his own discretion and 'at his own pleasure against alt, or nearly all, the Spanlsh-Amerloan Stales on this continent. The bill has a financial aspeot It has also a broad political character. In regard to the financial aspect, I call the attention oftheSenato to the fact that the bill proposes to appropriate now, at this time, ont of the greasory of tho United States, $30,000,000 to be ploeed under, the eontrol of the President of the United Blates, to be paid by him to Spain, whenever, she shall have consented to aooept any -treaty whioh he may make with her for the cession of Cuba to the Uaitod States, without wailing for a ratifica tion of that treaty by the Benate of the United States. This appropriation of $30,000,000 neoessarily involves now a pledge, a guaranty, virtually a grant, or appropriation of so many more millions of dollars as iheFreaident of tho United States, without any recourse to the Sen ate or to Congress, and consulting only his own mere ambition, caprice or pleasure, shall agree to give for that island ; and this lasi amount is altogether unlimited. The bill contains no limitation, and the Presi dent reeommeods no limitation. It is a bill then for just so many millions as the President shall choose to write in the treaty. What will be the oumber of thoae millions! The report of the majority of the committee says that U will prob ably be $125,000,000. This calculation is based upon the fact that Spain refused $100,000,000 fen years ago, and that Cuba has Increased in value $25,000,000, according to the estimate of a majority of the committee. This estimate is inconclusive, mid, therefore, unsatisfactory.— The amount which Bpalnwill ask, if we suppose her to accede to this treaty, will be all that the eaa get, and the amount which the President win give. If it be his purpose to acquire the Is land of Cuba at all events and under aQ hazards will be the least that Bpain will consent to take. It may then just as well and as accurately be estimated that thesum to be written in thetreaty will be $200,000,000, or 250,000,000, or $500.- 000,000, as that it shall be only $125,000,000. I will assume that it authorizes the President to contract a debt to Spain, without again con sulting Congress or the Senate of the United Stales, for the sum of $250,000,000. This prop osition comes at a time when our revenues ate reduced to $50,000,000, and there is a confessed difioieney for tbe year of lt is immaterial whether we borrow this $30,000,04K> to pay Spain, as the bill proposes, or whether we pay it out of the receipts of the revenue flowing into the Treasury, and borrow money to supply tbe place of what we oms abstract. It proposes nothing lees than to authorize the Pres ident of the Uoited States to rivaio'at ones and absolutely a debt of s3o,ooo,oCK);and indirectly a farther debt of $220,000,000* in addition to a deficit, which is TirtaaDj an existing debt against tbe Treasury, of $30,000,000 ; making SCO,- 000,000 of new debt eerta!a,-nad $220,000,000 contingent. This added' to an already funded debt of $00,000,000, trill raise the national debt to $280,000,000. Thftis to be done under ex traordinary eireuastMees. We have at this moment no fioancial spetem—no system of rev enue. We have, jAe*d r i tariff law which brought leet year-into Treasury otsr $40,000,000, aod Ibis year is expected to briug in $50,000,000; bnt a revenue law whioh leaves an annoal deficit cannot be said to constitute a fisoal system. Coogress, after being in'- ses sion now near two months, hes utterly failed to deviso any kind of revenue system whatever.— Nor has tbe Executive Administration submitted PITTSBUBQH. to Congress any system for this emergency. This statement is strictly true, if you consider that the President recommends one system in Ids annual Message, and that the Seoreiary of the Treasury, his own responsible Minister of Finance, submits to us another and widely dif. ferent one. Tbisgrsat increase of the public debt, we are asked to make at the very hour when, in compli ance with the Executive recommendation, we are proposing to authorize him to build the Pa cific Railroad, at a cost of not less than $125,- 000,000 more; and simultaneously with this, in the same Message, we are ateo asked to author- ize the President to mate the Army into Aleifco which ceo cost nothing less tbsn $100,000,000 more, sad si the same time, in pursuance of rso* ommendalioos of the same weight and Authority, we sre asked to authorize him to employ the Ar my sod the Navy against just so many Spa&Uh- American States on this continent as he shall chose, which can require nothing less than sloo* 000,000 more; so, without any financial system at all we are to have a great debt created by this Congress of the United States, on the recommen dation and application of the President, to strengthen the arm of the Executive, while weakening the power and the constitutional force of (he Senate, and the Home of Representatives, a debt of $600,000,000. L The honorable Senator from Rhode Island (Mr. Simmons) the other day spoke in glowing terms, and yet most justly, of the credit of (he United States, and showed that, with the small debt that we now have, a nominal debt, we can. I go Into the market, and with a five per oent. stock borrow money at a premium, or, perhaps, borrow money on a four per cent, stook anywhere in the markets of the world That is because wo are novices, inexperlenoed, untried, and un known In the money market, except for paying each email dehts as we have made. But, Sir, when wo shall have shown that we can increase our debt In forty days, for that ia the period which remains of this session,from $00,050,000 to $500,000,000,1 beg leave to express the opinion that the rate of interest will be found to rlso? in proportion to the liberality with which wo pro pose to borrow, in tbit case you will find year revenue derived from all souroea scarcely more than enough to pay the Intereetof the debt which you shall thue have oreated, leaving no funds whatever for carrying on the ordinary operations of the Government. This, however, it plight be sold, ia a fanciful picture, because the bill appropriate* only $30,- 000,000, and not the whole $250,000,000, wHch . I have enpposed. Nevertheless, Sir, it appro priates the whole amount wbjoh the President shall write in the treaty. We give him a blank draft on the Treasury, aodauthoriie him tolfill op the amount for himself. I have supposed ho will fill up with $250,000,000. But I am told that-we can retreat from this contract with Spain If Ye find it too expensive, and abandon the measure without paying the additional Sum whioh the President msy write in the treaty.— Slowly and oarofulljf Mr. President, let us con eider. Certainly we cannotretreatfrom it with out forfeiting the $30,000,000 whioh will have been paid. That condition will operate os a constraint upon Congress to appropriate all the remaining ’millions which the President may stipulate, and it will equally operate as a bon strelnt upon the Senate to ratify tho treaty, whatever sum may be stipulated by Us pro visions. Again, sir, no one can suppose that the Presi dent would pay the $80,000,000 in advance to Spain, without securing possession of the Island of Cuba... When he has onoo obtained the Is land of Cuba, sod paid $80,000,000 as an ad vance upon the consideration money of the pur chase, the treaty will be a contract executed, and Spain and the whole world would laugh with derision at the pretense that we coild rescind the con tract .and repudiate the .Yemalning debt on the ground that we had .then looked into; our Constitution sod found that we had violated U In passing the UV by YbtQh'we bad authorized the President to make tho improvident bargain. Sir, this is a plan of financial management to whiohl ama stranger. It is the province of the Congress of the .United States to tako care of the public Treasury, and to see that every dollar that is received remains there until, by appropriation bills limited to single objects, and each bill endoriog for only two yean, the money :U expanded by agents, under (heir own direction Wnd authority, far objects appointed, fixed, and certain. The effeot of this measure is to iurren derthe oontrol otw. a large portion of the nation al treasure and'resources, practically over;all that is valuable la the Treasury, id (ha Presi dent of the United State*, withoutrctainlngany effective aeourity for hie wire and faithful ad ministration of it I’.; -Ihave aald that the bill has also a poßUcal wpwt. It proposes tq brisg into Unlted GH GAZETTE. Slates a foreign country, 700 miles long, and 70 miles wide; containing 1,500,000 Human beings, subjects of government, occupying prac tically every foot upon its sidewalks iu its cities and every acre of mountain and plain and val ley in the rural districts of that island; a popu lation different entirely from the citizens off the United Slates— different in language, different In race, different in habits, different in manners, differentia customs, and radically different in religion; a population that will, practically, for ever hold tho power* to exclude all American immigration, at least, to exclude it. as cffcotn&liy as the old States of Europe exclude our migra tion thero, and as cfieclvally as onr old establish ed States practically exclude immigration from outside of their borders. This population, then is to be the ruling population of that island. What rights will citizens of (ho United States eojoy there? The 1,600,000 souls are divided. One-half 'whiles, 250,000 free blacks, and 400,- 000 slaves; What institutions of justice, or freedom, of religion and publio worship will ob tain or remain there? I need not know. If I were willing to leavo these great questions to the President of the United States, I have no right to do so. I have already shown that the oonoent of tho Senate to the passage of this bill will operate aa a constraint upon the Senate to ratify what ever treaty the President shall make hereafter. If this be true (end no one, I think, can contro vert it), then lam asked,to resign a constitution al, Senatorial power to the President of the Uoited Slates, and to shift from my own shoul ders to his a constitutional responsibility. To do this Is a derog&Uon of the independence of tho constitutional power of the Senate of the United States, and a practical subversion nf the constitutional check, which requires that every treaty shall.receive tho votes of two-thirds of the body, or be absolutely void. It practically delegates to a bare majority of the Senate, and to a majority of the House of Representatives, ther treaty making power of this great empire. Sir, if there ever was an occasion on which I should adhere tenaciously to this right, and in sist upon retaining this power, it would be la suchaoaseas this. I want to see the treaty which ehall bring the Island of Cuba into the United States. I want to know the status which that oountry Is to occupy. Is it to bo a Territory of subjects, of political slaves? a province, and governed by armies and navies, as Spain now governs it? I may ask the President of the United Stales when he has exeeutod tho treaty, is it to be a State? Who are to be tho electors of lhe8lale? What is to be the status of the white population? Are they to enjoy Universal suffrage? What ia to be the status of, the free negro popula tion? What ia to be the itoltuof the slave popula tion ? We who have disputed so earnestly, often so vehemently, year after year, year In and year out, over the question whether the institution of Slavery shall bo introduced into the Territory of Kansas, are expected by the President, in his simplicity, to allow him to determine for the North and for the South for tho Free States and for the Slave Slates, at his own absolute pleasure, the terms and conditions upon which Cuba shall be annexed to the United Slates, and incorporated into the Union. I say nothing of the present iooambent of tho Executive office. I say that men nover chose, nor did God ever Bend on earth, a magistrate to whom I would con fide this great question, having a constitutional right to decide it mysolf. 1 need not say Sir, that all our treaties of annexation contain stipulations guarantying rights to the countries annexed, to be incorpor* ated Into the Union, and determining the future political rights, power and authority of the in habitants of those countries. This bill, then, is in derogation of tho power of the Senate to determine by treaty for itself what the safety, honor, and welfare of the country domond in regard to the political organisation and govern ment of the Island of Cuba, if it shall be re quired. Sir, l hare always received as a political max im the declarations made by onr predecessors in regard to the acquisition of Cuba. Every rock and every grain- of sand in that island were drifted and washed out from American soil by the floods of the Mississippi, and the estuaries of the Gulf of Mexico. The island ban seemed to me, just m our predecessors hare s&id, to gravitate bock again to the parent continent from which it sprung. 1 bavo -supposed that political necessities would determine tb it alii, mate conclusion ; and I know that to ]oltlical necessities all actions of governments mu it bend and all sentiments of nations must occon modulo themselves. I have nevertheless, been taught, with the earns maxim, his other rule, (bat tho ! acquisition of Cuba was a question of time, of of necessity, and of'opportunity. liwaajost ss clear sixty years ago, when we acquired Lou siana, as il ls now, that Cuba, in tho language of John Quiocy Adams, gravitates to tho United States, as the apple yet hanging on its native trunk gravitates to the earth which sustainsit. Tet it oertsinly is true that Caba was not then acquired, nor attempted by extraordinary means to be aeqnired ; and the reason was that, the time, necessity, and opportunity, hod not then presented themselves. In fact, the lime ia deter mined by the coincidence of necessity and op portunity ; and (hat coincidence is the result of a decline of Enropean power on this continent, and of a dovelopement of the growth of Ameri can power on the same continent. Our forefath ers Baid, all our predecessors have eaid that when the juncture shall arise that there should be just that necessary decline of the political European power on the continent, and just that developement of American power here, which makes Spain nnable to keep, and ourselves able freely to obtain, the island then it wonld be hopeless and idle to refuse to reccivo Cuba, even If it were undesirable. They have said more, and I subioribe to it, that we may eafoly hold our souls in patlenoe so long as Spain can keep it, and no other and stronger European Power 040, or dare, take it from her. What I have to say now is, that the time and opportunity do not now serve, in my judgment, anymore than they have served for the last sixty years. We may be nearer, as, indeed, I doubt not we arc, to tho acquisition of Cuba ; but we have not arrived at that point at'Which the acquisition must neces sarily bo made, or can be made, consistently with the conditions of peace, prudenoe, justice, and the natiooal honor. Ten jeers ago tho President of tho United State* deolared that Cuba wee to bo nequired only by treaty, by purebaso, and not by rrar. The preaenL President of the United Statoß ro. affirms that proposition new; eo that the only question to be considered is, whether it can be purchased now. Well, ten yoars ago, the Prosi* dentof the United Stales offered $100,000,000 for it, and tho answer to tho proposition was conceived in terms eo decided, eo unequivocal, eo utterly forbidding all hope, that it was never afterward renewed; and eilcnce lias been ob- served about it ever einee, in order (o preserve the good understanding aud the good nature of tbe parties. The Message of the President sent here on Friday last, ehovs na that, down to this hour, the proposition has not beou mentioned in Spain for a period, of ten years. The same Mos* sage assures as even that it will not now be mentioned to Spain, unless some peoullar and extraordinary measures are adopted to require him to bring it again to her intention. Spain holds the Island now more tenaciously j —with a stronger and safer grasp than that with whioh she has neld It at any time within the laei fifty years. It Is now a period of reposo in Europe, and in the Western World. Spain hav ing gone through the crisis of surrendering op her territorial empire in its largest proportions, has entered jupon a new career of material pro gress and improvement. Her agriculture, her manufactures, her Army and her Navy, arc in a flourishing, prosperous and Improving condition. Heretofore, Spain has held the Island of Cuba in the midst of conflicts between the two great Powers of Western Europe, England and France, liable to lose itto one ortheother belligerents at any moment. To-day, England and Franco aro not only allies, bat Ihoy are united in the policy of maintaining Spain in the enjoyment of the Islands of Cuba and Porto ;8100, tho last rem nants of her once world-iride empire. Spain ex hibits, more decidedly than ever within the last i 20 yean, tbe habits of aeqoieaocnce and loyalty |by her people in her existing institutions. She 1 seams to have passed the period when the coun try was rent, convulsed* end distracted by the contests of democratic and monarchial factions. At present she is apparently in a condition of profound repose andoontentment. If there waa any doubt noout thlssutyect, all doupt is now removed by the answer which we, have already received from the authorities of Bpain, to this very proposition of the President of the United States In the very form in whioh it is proposed that we shall adopt it. Our mail of this morn ing brings ns the answer of the Spanish Govern ment and Legislature to our adaanccs, even be* fore we have taxen the first step. Now, Sir, afqer having shown that there is not the least earthly' prospeot of acquiring the Island of Cuba by, or in consequence of, the passage of this hill, what follows? It. follows that the question, whether Cube is desirable, and ought to be attained, Is not all in debate. It is an idle, a visionary and mischievous abstraction Then is no snob question here; bat tho question whioh U presented Is, whether the Congo 93 of the UnitedBtates is tooffer an indignity toEpftin. Tnatluall ' m i will not slop to inqniro ns an abstract question about the wisdom of a great'nation Offering Ihsulta and indignities to othgn&iiona. 7 1 will not stop now to inquire ab«tf the virlue, the morality, and the honoiyta-gay nothing-of the dignity of eueh a oonpil Bui 1 will • ny this, that Uls not wi«UVoffer 'aff:indigaltj!td a : piwtt if TJttmtepU ngtiiig;.!); it , " j ■■ ... i . r- -s - , r . / - - i \ - ' * - 1 '-a - •,'~ s''~'' A'l\ ' - .-£-~ * "i. i,W' ~" >\> l * * ' “~S '' r r i _ i. . i '•’T-^A^Sr^-ts^if VOLUME LXXIIr-NUMBER 43 So much may al least bo conceded to me. And now, what is to bo obtained by insulting Spain! Nothing; but only this: wo must expect that she will be provoked to war to resent the indignity; and when Lb a war has come to resent tho indig nity, then tho prize of Cuba may be attained as indemnity for tho expenses of the war. Sir, if wo desire to acquire Cuba by negotiation, let ns negotiate. The President disclaims and dis dains to seek it by war directly. Are wo to un derstand him and a majority of the Committee here, that they ask us to bring Spain indirectly into a war in order that wo may conquer Cuba That would bo to impute to the President and the Committee bad faith, which I mast utterly dis claim. These considerations muisfy my mind that it is not expected, that it is not intended, that Cuba shall be ncquirod in consequence of this proceeding; but that it is supposed that some other advantage, somo domcslio and local bene fit, will be secured to tho President of the Uni ted States, by provoking a debate on .this sub ject inCongress. Sir, Ido not so much under values the iutolligenco of tho American people as to approhend any such result The proposi tion seems to be an empty one, an idle one, a ludicrous one; and if it were not for violating the respect due to the President of the United States and the majority of the Committee who sanction it, I should say a ridiculous oco.
