From the Union, April 8. The Debate in llic cii.tic on the IVtiicii Congratulatory Ulcsoltitions. aiir. II A IV IV EG AX'S SPEECH. "We have not room this morning for the whoi? of the interesting debate in the Senate on Thursday, on the resolution of congratulations to the French peo ple; but we cheerful make space fur the very elo quent speech cf the chairman of the committee on foreign relations, Air. Hannegan, who introduced the resolutions in response to the President' message. We will endeavor at an early day tu give the whole of this interesting debate. Jlr. IIANNEG AN aaid : I will not detain the Sen ate by entering into any detail of the events which we have all read in the newspapers with regard to what has recently transpird in France. It is enough to refer the senator from Connecticut to those details, as furnishing an answer to the objection that nothing , has been done to warrant congratulations from Ame rica to France. Sir. NILES. The senator entirely misunderstood me. I eaid that the resolution cf the senator from Ohio went beyond anything that had been done. Mr. IIANNEG AN. Iam happy to hear the ex planation of the senator, although I still differ with him in hin construction of the resolutiou. The sena tor from New Hampshire expressed the hope that the French people might be enabled to per severe, even unto the shedding' of blood. To that I respond, if it be necessary ! But I fervently trust in God that not one drop of human blood may flow in this great revolution. Mr. HALE. I said that I desired the French peo ple would be faithful unto death. Mr. IIANNEG AN. That, of course, implies the shedding of blood. But I trust no neck will be brought to the block that nr human misery, but that umninglcd human happiness may flow from this great movement. And now, sir, it is due to the honorable senator from Ohio and mjself, that I should make a brief ex planation. When the message of the President was commuuicated to us on Monday last, it was, on my motion, referred to the committee oo foreign relation?; and I then stated to the Senate that i was not my in tention to interfere with his resolution. I will carry out my purpose in that reject: for, although, as the organ of the committee, I reported the resolutions which have been read this morning, and although I prefer them, as they go further in expressing my views, yet I will never place myself in a position in which I can, for an instant, be suspected of public or private treachery. I suggested to the senator from Ohio, in the morning on which he introduced his re solution, that he had better do it at once. I then committed myself to his resolution ; and I shall carry out the committal by any vole which I may be called on to give. The resolutions of the committte on fo reign relations, indeed, express the same sentiments and feelings as the resolution of the Senator from Ohio, and entirely accord with resolutions which have been prepared by other senators amongst them, my mend irom New York, Mr. Dix.l Ihey all em uouy pt duc sentiment, and no more. All convey nothing more than what fell from the lips, and came fresh and warm from the hearts of every day-laborer around your Lapitol grounds, as he exchanged con PTatu atluns and aluvnL-a hnnrta with hi noRiwiHto ni the intelligence of these glorious events.

As the originator, then, of this Drocedure. to him belongs the credit, let the details be what they may, of the action which the Senate may adopt. And here I may, without impropriety, remark, that to the enator from North r.rnltn. fM, M,nirm1 rhi.r. ly due the credit of the re-olutiuna reoorted from the committee.

But this is of little consenuence .itt,r t h?m t mwcir TNiikn. r 1 vr iiiti wa J ,a v us seeks the "bubble reputation" which is to be gain- ed at the point of a resolution. Ho. I know, is above it ; and I trust I am. The senator from Connecticut TMr. Baldwin! re marked the other day, that there were no precedents lor this procedure. I think that if he will look back to the period of the first revolution in France, he will there discover a precedent in the conduct of Wash ington himself. When Louis XVI communicated to General Washington, then President of the United btates, the lact that he had signed the constitution dictated to him by the National Assembly, and that lie had given to the French people on extension of the elective franchise and other privileges before un- known, Washington, in a brief message, announced the intelligence to Congress, and it was responded to in separate resolutions by the two houses, which were transmitted by the President to the Kiner of France, When, at a later period, on the establishment of a .ahiiKI.i. .1 " j r ii r r i i ht "tlulu auviiaois 10 issue me annexed additional t-ir-re public before the downfall of Robespierre and Ma- Pir r Tnt.lit;..n. . i .. rat, we retrained from transmitting congratulatory resolutions, the reason, as will be fresh in the recol- lection of senators, was, that we were then in immi- nent danger of collision with France.

'V -Ii e f-i.tr in u sttlu'.olii'.i t ire j rc- sence of rational liberty J I know the doubt, tue fearful doubt, that exists in many of the greatest minds even in some of the most honored fathers that surround me ; and I know, too, from converstion on all sides, as well as I can learn, that doubts can only be expressed by the word solicitude the deep, deep solicitude with which maternal lote watches the first steps of the idolized boy. Will ho stumble! will he fall ? The fine-turned limb, the Hashing eye, forbid the thought. He will walk, and walk to noble and vigorous manhood ! France will walk, and walk to noble and vigorous manhood! This feeling inspires some misgivings, not in the purity of intention which discloses ihis great struggle, but in tie detail which is to seal the result. Her national assembly is, per- haps, too numerous one-hrih the number would have represented all the departments, all the interest of the French people, and avoided the dangers of fac tion and tumult. But I can feel no doubt of the issue. The descendants of the consecrated Gironde, united with the schools poly technique, supported by the press and the intelligence of France, will avoid the terrible obstacle of the Mountain and the Jacobin on their way to regulated, constitutional liberty. I trust with abiding confidence in the moderation, the wisdom, the public virtue, the intellect of France. I rest r seated on a rock, upon the steady patriotism of the French people, in sustaining those great intel lects who lead the way, pointing tu the high destiny of France with all the sublimity of faith, all the fer vor of the seer. I dreod no rising cloud which my friend from Alabama Mr. Bagbyl pictured the other day ; I will not fear the baleful cloud of anarchy, lighted from every verge by concentric fires, and sweeping on the tempest wings to blast with its thun derbolts the new-sprung hopes of freedom and man kind, remit the thought ! the prospect shall be lighted only by the lambent fire of exultant hope! At this hour the spirit of freedom is on foot in lands and amongst people, where its faintest sighs have keen unheard for centuries. Italy, the school boy's theme, the land of his golden visions and bis dreams of Cesar and of Tacitus and of old liberty- loving Germany, are again warned by the celestial Same. Europe is rocked by a moral earthquake. Every successive throe discloses some new breathing place for the subterranean fire, whic!i, long suppress ed, is bursting with more than volcanic power into the light and the approving presence of God. Sir, our example has done all this. The oppressed and famine-stricken of the Old World have annually flocked by thousands for refuge to us, the only resting-place for over-tasked humanity. They have drunk of the cup which never exhausts they have fed at the board whose necromantic supplies are spread with more than "Bacchanal profusion." They have bowed at the altar of their own God unques tioned, and listened to the ministrations of his priest undisturbed. They have walked by day, and slept by night, in security the rude latch their only guard and no proud emissary of oppression t: wither by his tread the green sward before their humble door. They have found a home Where pods might love to dwell And wander with delight, or tit amid Its iicted shade ! All this they have written, ship load after ship load, to those they have leu behind ; and thus the ei lcnt and nvsib!e power of the Almighty has brought the masses to the aid of the master spirits that from their closets have so long invoked the blessings of freedom. Dut perhaps I wander. I will only add, that my vote "ha!l 1)0 Siven with heartfelt pleasure at once for t,,e " Bry miliar resolutions: and 1 trust Ü,at the Vüte mny be taken this äJ' 80 that tl,e intc1' "S?"5 mny he conveyed to France in the Cambria, whlch 6ails on Saturday next.

Thi must appear almost incredible, but tbe numerous letters from physicians, agents, and those who use the ffiediclre, from ill the western snd southern State, satisfy us that this is a wtoderot estimate, and that our medicine is rapidly taking tbe place ef ths various (vgar-coated counterfeit! v, hirh are afloat, and ihe numer ous feme mixtures, made v. holly of quinine, which are imposed upon the public by manufacturers who live, nokodg knr rer I Dr. Uragg's famous ugar Coated Indian Queen Veeetut le Pill are of two hind tbe Cathartic and Tonic. Tbe Tonic pills are peculiarly adnpted to the quick and permanent core of Fever and Ague, torimr of tbe Liver, and general debility. It is in Fever and Ague, Chill Fever, &e., that they achieve their greatest triumphs. It rarely requires over twelve hours; or more than half a bos of the tonic pills, to break tbe chills and effect a permanent rure which is rarely th case with the tonic mixtures of quinine, hawk ed about the country by ignorant pretenders. Those who take the tonic pills will never forsake them. Who can wonder, then, that a medicine of such extensive popu larity, and extraordinary viiturs should cause Great excitemmt among the Doctors.' The prejudire of physicians against their use in at last giving way to tbe play ol reason, snd tbe conviction of every -day experience which they derive from their patients and friends who nse them. Doctors ar now almost every day sending order from every part of the country for a supply of these pills to use in their prac tice. Here is one all the way from the State of Mississippi, just receiv er!. Let doctor and the sick look to it, and hasten to procure a supply of this wonderlul Tonic : 6ucB Caove, Tirran Co., Mm , ( July 19th, mi. i To Dr. Bragg, St. Louie, Mietouri : Dear Sir I have to infirm you that I have used all one Tonic Pills, and therefore pray you to send me another supply immediate-, as there i much fever and ajrue within the bounds of my practice, and I hardly know bow to satisfy and cure my patients without them. I have thorousjhly tested yourTonir Tills in my praeticethrous.il this country, not only in chills and fever, but in real tyj-koidftrtr and have met with such success from their use, that I now find mysell at a great loss to get along without tbem. I consider them a creat blessing to the people of tbe west and south, anJ I am sat isfied that they are important in the cure ol more diseases than you recommend them for.
