Debate on Cass' Resolution. - Gen Oa--.0 has recently introduced into the U. S. Senate a Tesolution to instruct - the Committee on Foreign Relations to inquire into the expediency of suspending diplomatic relations with Austria, on ac count of the barbarous and oppressive treatment of the Hungarians ty that Government. Mr. Cass has made a strong speech upon it, urging the pro priety of withdrawing all intercourse with Austria, which has been published at length in some of the papers, and Lag ily commended` for its ability and patriotic sentiments. Other Senators however, while going as far as Mr. Cass in condemning the barbarous course of Austria toward Hungary, dis sent from the expediency of inflicting such an in ' jury to our own commerce as to shut up all inter ! course with that government. Among these Mr. Hale the distinguished Free Soil Senator from Nqw Ham • -hire made some able remarks which are re- •, . DUI pose the resolution of Mr. Cass.• • He had never listened With So much satisfaction to anr speech, as he did to that of the Senator from Michigan. on This resolution. lie was more than satisfied in listening to his eloquent appeal in the name of hn- . manify. He cordially agreed with the Senator from Michigan. when he intimated that the cause of the oppressed was more sacred when the victim was trodden down and trampled under foot—and when he said that this government, id expressing the sen timents of the people, must sympathize, with a people struggling for the liberty giVen thorn by God, but wrested, from the. by man.- Ile agreed with the Senator, also, in the sentiment that the discussion of this subject will du much towards re pressing future aggreasion upon the independence of nations; an I he agreed also with another Sena tor. when he had said that his sympathies were re served for the masses of mankind. He was glad that these admissions had fallen from other lip_ If they bad fallen from him - , they would have been called fanatacism. If the gentleimm from Michigan would to-day throw his fortune ; and his faith into the carrying out of these sentiments, he would make for himself a. name greater far even than that which bellow cnjuvs. The gentleman proposed impairing into the expediency of suspending diplomatic rel4tions with Austria. Tiu.t was a bad term. It should be propriety. justice., duty, and not, a qnestion of ex pense. Expediency was a bad word ; and, taken in connection with the Senator's statistic.; relative to the importance of Austria's commerce, and her scarcity of-port, it amounted to the annunciation that we can utter a considerable amount of proper indignation at a very slight expense. Theenate. under this resolution, was to consti tute itself a high. Court, to try the tuitions of the earth for their crimes of oppression and att'ocious net s of despotism, committed undereggravafed cir cumstances. This- was a higher power, and the his torian, if the resolution was acted upon. would in future years write down that this was the most en lightened Republic that ever lived or ever will live. Forgetting the little petty concerns of home it.grave le op-tituted itself a committee tostry Idle nations of the earth for their crimes.

Again, while the Court was sitting to arraign Spain, upon whose territory else the aspirants for civil and political liberty had fallen. After. we had tried - all the nations of Christendom, he would desire that we should hind ourselves also to come down from otir high position,—we, the Model Republic—to stand our trial before some court of indignation.— lie did not know, however, who shOuld try us.

All the facts upon which the Senator based his proposition weie historied. The origin of the wa and the punish ments inflicted were well known o the Senate and the country. The proposition, th ilefore, should be considered in the same light as a positive direction to some action earrying out the ltimate object of - the resolution. . The'Senate were just as well reparcd as ever it could be, to decide whether wel should suspend diplomatic interrourso with Austria or not. - He did not believe that the Senattfrom Alabama, i. tKing) if he had given this his nual careful' con sideration, could give it his sane i r on. He referred to the eloquent: language in -which Mr. Cass had set forth the sufferings of Himgart, and said, that there was airoilier way in which lthe detestation of Austria's course could be manifested with .much more benefit to those who had been trodden down by the tyrant. Let the honorable Senator bring forward some plan by which succor and comfort. could be given:to the numerous, : f.xiles.who were now fleeing. to this land from the 'Oppression which they vainly endeavored to repel,inid the gentleman would find hini ready to• advocate it with all the power he possessed. i i• Instead of suspending diplomatic relations with Austria, he Would send. to that Government some enlightened citizen who could diamond the confi dence of the country. ' The honorable Senator from Michigan himself would be a neisi appropriate per son to send on such an interesting occasion, to sue for some sonsideration for Hungary—to plead her cause, and endeavor to obtain forher that, redress and consideration which her makings and her bra very were entitled to. The object of foreign mis sions was not to benefit the country to which we send representhtives, but to protect American in terests abroad, lt,was proposed, because oft our abliorence of Austrian butcheries, and Austria's disregard of Hungarian independence, to punish American mer chants and sailors—to deprive our citizens of what t ver advantage might be deriVed from the diplo matic relations existing between the two nations: Such a course could be. justifiel by no argument whatever.l6' ' :Mr. Clay also vindicated theil consistency of his . 0 ~, , . ~,cr-Nr. /li : Tell SENATE:I'MM the Democratic prrisour actior, - to view- of his former course with enion of January 'tith We makh the followir , ex tract from die Legislative propeadings• of tl7e ad reference to tbe•Soutli American States, referred lo by Mr. Cass in his speech.

Ile would like 41) hear a definition of the progress which the gentleman had designed to advocate. The Filly of which the Senator from Michigan was a 'distinguished disciple, was oppos ed to the improvement of our great water courses, opposed to a system of progress which would re lieve us from a dependance for necessaries of life upon dforeign land. What then did he nunin by progress ? Mi. Clay feared that the progress which he ad vocates was n progression of conquests, territorial ~ ,,, i-fandixement and foieign v.-ars If so, he thank ed God he was of the stand-still school, as opposed to such a progress as that to 'agile!' he had alluded. In conclusion, Mr. Clayslid not-think that it be came the Senate totatorireli 'unnecessary and pe `that ground as had. en proposed, and hoped the Senate weld at one6reject the proposi tion without reference or hesitation. Messrs. Benton and Cass. In the Senate. the tiro grea4 events of the last week, have been speeches from Jlessrs. Benton and Cass—the foriner on the .presentation of resolutions of instrnetion on the stihket orthe Wiltnot.i'rovisti, passed by the .Messouri Legislilture at its last ‘ ses-- sum, and the latter on the subject of a resolution of enquiry, in regard to the expediency- and propriety of suspending diplomatic intercourse with Austria. Mr. 'lemon, it is said, was More than ordinarily mild dial subdued, and confined himself strictly to the argument of the question (resented by the res oluti -n-: of instructkn, whiche expressed his in t ention to disregard, and ehmacterised as the int-, mature and` unenlightened expee, ion of the public• sentiment of his State. He declared his \pesiti:re conviction that the resolution would be - recalled at the next succeeding session i'.)l' the Legislature.— Ills ealm and quiet, manner, and the freedom of his speech from all those bitter mitt vindictive person alities which marked the character of his late speeches in Missouri, is said 6. 'have taken every body hy.surprise ; and Mr. Coltman and big friends, though claiming a victory-, were very much in doubt as to the feelings which promited the unexpected forbearance of their adversary / . It was the gener al Impression, however, that .I%fr. Benton had re served his thunder for a different occasion, for if ever a man was noted for " nursin g his wrath to keep it warm." it is the Hon. enator- from 3lissou- - ti. If Mr. Calhoun thinks he .14 subdued his pow- - erful adVemary, he lies profite but little by his ex- Serience of the bulldog - tensesy,.with, which that nator clings to his revengef 1 Ourposes. The speech of Mr. Cass, wa, un able acid showy effort, so far as in regard to Ms oratorical power; but as an act of statemunishiwe think it falls far below many of the former e its of that gentle man.

Mr. SWift asked the Speak er whether lie intended to recognise two Senators from Hamilton county. The ;Speaker replied that he would not decide who was Senator,—it wits for the Senate to answer the question, as both parties were sworn in. Mr. S.—Why did ynti not tell me that before, sir .
