Mr. Benton s resolution lor selling spurt so much of the surplus revenue us may be necessary for the defence •inti permanent security o! the country being under con sideration— Mr. Benton, after some conciliatory remarks on Mr. Clayton's proposed amendment, said, tiial u good conse quence had resulted from an unpleasant debate. All parties luid disclaimed the merit of sinking the fortifica tion bill ot the last session, and u majority liad evinced u determination to repair the evil by voting adequate ap propriations now. This was good. It bespoke belter results in time to come, and would dispel that illusion of divided counsels on which the French Government had so largely calculated. The rejection of the three mil | lions, and the loss of the fortification bill, had deceived trance ; it had led her into the mistake of supposing that «vc viewed every question in it mercantile point | "I view—that tlio question of profit und loss was the i on)y rule we had to go by—that nulionul honor was no object, und. that, to obtain these miserable twenty-five ; millions of francs, we should be ready to submit to any , quantity of indignity, and to wade through any depth | of national humiliation. The debate which has taken place will dispel that illusion; and the first despatch which the young Admiral Mackuu will have to send to | 1,18 Government, will be to inform them that there has , l,ecn !1 mistake in this business—that these Americans j wrangle among themselves, but unite against foreigners, ; mid that many opposition Senators are ready to vote ! double the amount of the twenty-five millions to put the l country in a condition to sustain that noble sentiment of President Jackson; that the honor of his country shall Merer be stained by hij making an apology for speaking truth in the performance of duty ! It was in March last, that the three millions and the forliflrulion bill was lost; since then tlie whole aspect of the French question in changed. The money is with held, an explanation is demanded, an apology is pre scribed, and a French fleet approaches. Our Govern ment, charged with insulting France, when no insult was intended by us, and none can be delected in our words by her, is itself openly and vehemently insulted. The apology is to degrade us—the fleet to intimidate ns, and the two together constitute uu insult of the gravest character. There is no parallel to it, except in the history of France herself; hut not France of the lfltli century, nor even of the lStli, but in the remote and ill-regulated times of the 17lh century, and in the days of the proudest of the French Kings, and towards one of the smallest republics of Italy. I allude, sir, to what happened between Louis the XIV, iinu the Doge of Genon, and will read the account of it from the pen of Voltaire in his Age of Louis the XIV. “The Genoese had built four galleys for the service of I Spain; the King (of France) forbade them, by his En ; voy, Si. Olon, one of his gentlemen in ordinary, to launch | those galleys. The Genoese, incensed ut this violation ! of their liberties, and depending too much on the sup port ot Spain,, refused to obey the order. Immediately fourteen men of war, twenty galleys, ten bomb ketches, with several frigates, set sail from the port of Toulon. They arrived before Genoa, and the ten bomb ketches discharged 14,000 shells into the town, which reduced to ashes a principal purt of those marble edifices which had entitled this city to the name of Genoa the Proud. Four thousand men were then landed, who marched up to the gules, and burned the suburb of St. Peter, of Arena. It was now thought prudent to submit, in order to preveut the total destruction of the city. “ The King exacted that the Doge of Genoa, with four of the principal Senators, should come and implore his clemency in the palace of Versailles; and lest the Genoese should elude tire making tins satisfaction, and lessen in any manner the pomp of it, lie insisted further, that the Doge, who was to perform this embassy, should be continued in his magistracy, notwithstanding the per petual law of Genoa, which deprives the l>oge of his dig nity who is absent but a moment Irom the city. lrnperialo Lcrcaro, Doge of Genoa, attended by the Senators LomeUino, Ganbuldi, Durnzzo, and Salvago, repaired to Versailles to submit to what was required of him. 'I'iie* Doge apparelled in his robes of Stale, his head covered with a bonnet ol red vulvet, which he ullen took oil during his speech, made his apology, the very words and demeanor ol which were dictated and prescribed to him by Seignclat,' (the French Secretary of Slate for loreign affairs.)* i JiUH, saiu Mr. J>.. was the city of Genoa and its Du^o treated by Louis XIV. But it was not tbe Doge who wan degraded by this indignity, but the Republic of which he was chief magistrate, und all the Republics of Italy besides, which felt themselves all humbled by the outrage which a King hud inflicted upon one of their number. Bo of the apology demanded, and of the fleet sent upon ns, and in presence of which President Jack son, according to the Constitution net, is to make his de cision, and to remit it to the Tuilleries. it is not Presi dent Jackson that is outraged, hut the Republic ol which he is President; and all existing Republics, wheresoever situated. Our whole country is insulted, and that is the feeling of the whole country ; and this feeling pours in upon us every day, in every manner in w hich public sentiment can be manifested, and especial ly in the noble resolves of the Stales, whose Legisla tines nre in session, and who hasten to declare their ad herence to the policy of the Special Message. True, Pre sident Jackson is not required to repair to the Tuilleries, with four of his mo«' ?• r .xious Senators, und there re cite, in person, to the King of the French, the apology which he hud liist rehearsed to the Duke do Broglie ; true, the bomb-ketches of Admiral Muckau have not yet fired 14,OUt) shells on one of our cities ; but lire mere de mand tor an apology ; tire mere dictation of its terms; and tin? mere advance ot a fleet, in the present slate of the world, anil in the difl'erence of parlies, is u great er outrage to us than the actual perpetration of the enormities were to the Genoese. This is not the seventeenth century. President Jackson is not the Doge of a trading^city. We are not Italians, to be trampled upon by Luropenn Kings—but Americans, the descendants of that Anglo-Saxon ruee, which, for a thou sand years, has known how to command respect, and to preserve its place at the heud of nations. We aru young, but old enough to prove that the theory of the Frenchman, the Abbe Kuynul, is as false in its applica tion to the people of this hemisphere, as it is to the other productions of nature, and that the belittling tendencies ol the New World, arc no more exemplified in the hu man race, than it is in the exhibition of her rivers and her mountains, and in the indigenous races of the Mam moth and the Mastodon. The Duke de Broglie has made a mistake the less excusable, because he might find in Ins own country, and perhaps in his own family, exam ples of the extreme criticalness of attempting to overawe a community of freemen. There was a Murshul BrogUo who wus a Minister at War at the Commencement of the French Revolution, and who advised the formation of a canip ot 4U,UOO men to overawe Paris. 'The camp was formed; Paris revolted,captured the Uustile, marched to the Versailles, stormed the Tuilleries, overset the Mo narchy, and established the Revolution. Bo much for at tempting to intimidate a city; und yet here is a nation of freemen to be intimidated, a Republic of fourteen millions of people, and descendants of that Anglo-Saxon race, which, from the days of Agincourt, and Cressy, of Blen heim, and Uamillies, down to the days of Salamanca and Waterloo, have always known perlectly well how to deal with the impetuous und fiery courage otTlie French. Iii the coursoof the remarks, continued Mr. U., which I hud the honor to submit, when i first introduced my resolution, 1 took occasion to refer to what I thought was matter ol history, namely that the opposition of the Senate to the three million contingent appropriation, hud lost that appropriation, and also, had lost the fortifi cation annual appropriation hill to which it was attached; and that these two lenses had left us defenceless, and what wan more serious, had leli us with the appearance ol not being willing to defend ourselves; and that this sad exhibition of divided counsels, and naked frontiers, bad drawn upon tis the impending visit of that impos ing fleet, which seums to be the only iif gociator which French susceptibility now condescends to employ in tbe existing controversy with her ancient ally 1 thought Mr. President, that in speakingofthese things, I was doing nothing more nor less than making reference to historical facts; and hud no expectation of exciting a feeling, or elicit ing a warm remark, much less of provoking a discussion winch has continued so many days, and enlisted so ma ny orators Many speakers have indeed taken the field against me. but with an effect tho reverse of wliHt usual ly results from numbers. The more tho stronger, is tho law of number*; hut the more the weaker, has been the effect here. For every Speaker has a different reason to account for the same thing; while truth, which is sin gle, admit* of hut one reason; and thus e#eh confutes i "»l'er One grnlleman lays the blame upon the flouse of Representatives; another absolve* the House and censure* the President; u third throws it noon the Representative branch of the Committee of t on terence ; other* again lavish the whole blame upon individuals ..t thm committer , and, to complete , *,,t *•*.**'* W*1° xave that lively answer, which F^neh vi" vui-liy mil lovMto r. peat.

So many inconsistent answers ure, each and every, n re lation id the other, und might absolve me from further trouble, than to confront this series of cmilrudiclions, und to leave the whole to die ol’ ench others condemna tion; but I will not limit myself entirely to this brief task. 1 will expand n little; und, touching at a few points, this circle ol inconsistencies, ) will show what l first said to Ik- strictly true, namely, that the Senate is the responsible party, first, for the ioss of the three mil lions; scruiully, lor the loss of the fortification bill; und, I Jurat y, for tin- impending visit of the French Heel, and tor the acuinud tor explanation and apology. In presenting the Semite us the lespousible party for these losses, und their cousequence, as 1 had the honor to do hi my introductory remarks, gentlemen have us uumed that 1 had indicted the Senate ! and thereupon, incontinently, great indignation lias been prepared uud exploded, l.erluinly 1 m-ver intended to indict the Se nate lor this mailer, but simply to stale uu historical • fact, hut since gentlemen will lurvc me to preler an in dictment, then* is something, ut least, they must allow mo : they must allow me an elementary conception of i the constitutional mode ol trying people in our country! j for I have not proceeded txpartr; 1 have not indicted I Itlie Senate behind their bucks; nor tried them when ab- i sent; not condemned them unheard; nor denied them the privilege ot sell-defence; nor considered their de fence as ti breach ol my privileges, nor an insult to my dignity ! All this they must allow me; uud then there I ,s *ouielliing else which most be allowed me; und that is, that 1 have shown my sell so fur capable to conduct an ! indictment, us not to be turned out of court for uu error 1 in the venue—For, as ut common law, when a mortal wound is given in one county, and the wounded man dies in another, the sluyei may be tried and bunged in either county; so in this case, where the formication hill received its death-wound in this chamber, and died ol that wound in the House of Representatives, the kill ers of the bill may lawfully be brought to justice here. 1 lie question before the Senate has two branches, j each very distinct from the other, uud not to he con founded in debate, nor involved in one confused deci sion. 1 he first brunch ol the question is us to the loss of llie three million appropriation; the second brunch of it refers to the loss ot the bill to which it was attached. It j is my purpose to treat these brunches separately, uud to show that the three million appropriation was the mam loss, and the bill the subordinate and incidental loss; uud that the Senate wus the cause ol bulb losses, avowedly in the principal case, uud proveably in the incidental one. I sny llie throe million:* was* the main loag. and os t«l>liiili iliat assertion, fiist, /’rum its amount, lor it was three times the amount of*the other ; and next liom its character: (or it was an avowed preparation agaiusl con tingent danger. It wusm these words : "Toe sum of three millions oj dollars, to be expended in ichoie or m port under the direction of the President of (he United Mutes,for the. military and nui iil set rice, including Jo r lift cut ion und ordnance, und im reuse oj the uucy; provided seen xx VKsmrents shall hi: kenokkku necessary hik the '< H1.KI.NLK OK THE COUNTRY I'KIO&TO THE NEXT MEETING j ok Congress.’ These wore the words. Thu Senate re ; jected the appropriation so wosdcd; and the rejection 1 stood in France as the solemn declaration ot’ the Senate that they would not provide tor the deleuce ot itiecouuiry, although necessary, before they met again. It is in vam that Senators search lliir own bosoms, and find reasons for their vote of rejection ; the record hears the fact us J have slated it,— as u contingent appropriation for the ne cessary defence of the country, and its rejection! and to the French it could appear us nothing more nor less than : as a refusal to sustain the policy ofthe President, and as the final act which put the seal upon all those speeches ! which had justified t ranee and condemned the chief of our own Government. In this light it appeared to tlw French, and the effect was instantaneous und decisive with them, it induced them to change their tone, and emboldened them to take higher ground; and the Senator Grom Pciinsylvunin (Mr. Buchanan) has well shown, by a clear narration ot tacts, j and by a close collation ot' circumstances, that to tins most lamentable vote ol the Senate we arc indebted for all the !• rench measures so ell’ensive to our teelnigs,_ ! the legislative demand lor explanations,—the dictated ! apology, and the fleet that is sent to observe us._ Thus, the loss of the three millions was the main loss, both for ils amount and its shaiacter, and for the moral eli’ect winch a refusal to vote money tor the defence of the country, even though necessary for that ddli„.c before Congress met again ! and for this loss the Se nate is nicoutestibly ami avowedly responsible. There ' is no dispute on this point. The House of Keprc- i senlalives passed it,—the Senate rejected it,—and there was an end of it. Whatever room there may be lor contesting the responsibility of losing the formica tion hill, there is none for contesting the loss of this three millions, which Ins done all the mischief. Conscious of this, the gentlemen of the Opposition lay out all their strength m laborious arguments and minute details, in 1 vindicating themselves troin the loss of the fortification bill, while the infinitely more important loss of the three i millions is slightly run over with an admission and a jus titicatiori, Thu Senate admits it made that loss, and jus tifies it; but wliul a justification ! First, because it was not recommended by the President; next, because it was ! not specific, mid war, therefore, unconstitutional; and, thiriliy, because it pul dangerous power in the hands of j the President. These are the three points of defence, und let us Urn fly examine them. 1^1. Asi to the wantot the President's recommendation. I | 1 l,:it ** true in fact, but futile in import. The 1’resident : did not recommend the three millions to the Senate, but the House of Representative* did; und it was n casein ! which their recommendation should he more potential than his. it was a money bill, und the House ol Rep re sen la- I lives, us the immediate representatives of the people, are 1 the especial guardians of the puise—all lux hills must orb giiutlc there; utui, by consequence, all large appropriations the expenditure! revenue being so nearly ukm to , imposition of u tux, and often involving it—come with peculiar pi vpriety from thut branch of Congress. It is in vain to s ;y tliut tins appropriation was suddenly adopted in the '.louse of Representatives upon the mo tion of a member. Granted. Rut when it w as adopted, it was no longer the proposition of the member, but the j act of the House, and came to tin- Senate with ull the ! claims to respecllul consideration which is due to the j , act ol the whole body. Rut it is supposed that llie President gave privulc information of ins wishes to some of Ins friends, and withheld it from others, and that tin-effect was to ontiap them. He, Mr. Ren ton, presumed that this was ull u mistake. It was j not in unison with the President s character, which • was that ol extreme frankness, and it was not consonant j with the tact hi Ins own case; for he hud never heard i a word of the President’s wishes—he who, as Chairman of Hie Pennies Committee of Military Affairs, and as a friend to the Administration, would have had a right i to the very first information where there was a design- j ed discrimination between friends, had never heard of the matter one wuy or another. 11 is first knowledge of ; the three millions was from Uie reading ut the {Secre tary s table. He liud never heard ol the President's! wishes, never heard ol' Mr. Cnmbreleng's notice in the House of Representative, never heard of his motion, never seen the passage in the Globe, never heard Hint the three uulltous were coming until announced in the Senate: and if ho had known of the President’s wishes,, he should not have communicated them to llie Sen ate, it being unparliamentary and u breach of the privi leges ol tin- body to do so. Tli* President CoiiituunW eales to the Senate, responsibly through a message, ami not irresponsibly, tli rough a member; and to report his opinion upon Luis, to influence the action of the l.'ori- ‘ gress, is irregular and unparliamentary, and a reprehon- i siblo breach of the privileges of the body; and such is I lie ! law of Parliament He Should suppose then thill what- | ever might hove happened in communicating Ins wishes i to some, und not to others, was purely nccuiuntul. (,'er- I liiinly, if any one had a right to think himself slighted, ' he hud; for, in Ins double uhsrsciMr of Chairman of the Committee on Military Allans and friend to ihe Adiui- j lustration, h* should have stood first on the RotiHtonaL list for the insidiouscoiiiuiunioafion. ’J As to the uiicoiistitationality of the appropriation, because not *j>ecitic, Mr. R would not travel over ground winch had been so well occupied and so fully explored by otliers. He would not repeal what had been so olteo nod so well said, that the Coiislitaiiuii hud but two pro- \ vision* on the subject of appropriations; first, that ih* money should be dr twit from the Treasury uy law, and next, that It should bo accounted for. lie would not re peat what hud be.-n already so hilly established, that the doctrine of specific appropriations,so desirable in iiself, is matter of practice only, a refonn of Jefferson's time, slow ly introduced, often departed from, and in some branches of the expenditure only established within a few years past, lie would leave all this where Ins political friends had plaee.l it, and take up the question in another way, m a mere practical point of view, like a plain man engaged Iin an affair of business, and would demand how it hap pened, if want of ipecifioation was the real objection how it happened that no attempt was made to core so slight a defect by the natural and easy process or amend ii"-»l \\ liy did not some one move m amend by divul e?.r'l. | .*rT ■““?

All this could have been done in a moiety ol alie time in which any one of those tea or a doaen violent speeches were made against it.— Ins was the real question for gentlemen to answer, und until they answered it; »U other answers and excuses tor tbe loss ol Hus essential and important appropriation, must stand tor nothing. * 1 n£*r such n lnrb,« »»d indefinite appropri ation.
