Mr. Clingman replied tlint lie won hi modify tlie resolution if lie lin?I U16 power, but luring i Report from a Committee, ho could not do so Tlie resolution wan received under a sunpen nl.innf tlta Mil?.

Thi? jHjpP'vrns a-matter of grout impurt.mcc. wliieli the Itou6e could not overlook. ]t involved throe considerations to bring it to their notice. In tlic first place, the rights of Walker and liis followers who hud been so.i7.e1] ; whether they nre criminal or not is nnother question ; socoinlly, tliu rights of Nicaragua ami Costa Kion, or whoever owns the territory invade*! ; thir?l ly, nnd of more importance, which <lid not. depend on either of the two points preceding : it appeared that, one of our naval officers, whethi>r nr tuif l*v tli<? nullirthii ? #!??. marched into foreign territory and brought a way Walker and his 0110 or two hundred men f>y force. It must strike every one that (hit was an act of war. Suppose Walker was a fcad man, this did not justify the invasion ol Nicaragua for his arrest. Suppose Nicaragua did not object-to the invasion of the soil l>y u forb ?ign nrniv for that purpose. This did not justify Commodore I'nuldinir. If civil war <n* rebellion were in progress there, ami our officersMipprcssed it, the triumphant party would not complain. He had no doubt that, if in the rev olutioii in Paris, American troops bad interfered in behalf of Louis I'hilippe, the latter would not have complained of the invasion. Mr. Kitchie, interposing, iwiid the net. of Commodore l'aulding was justifiable on the ground that Wnlker was a fugitive from the criminal Jaw, mid officers being dispatched, had a right ^ f to arrest, him anywhere. a?i?. v/iiuuwiuii, i r-puimm:, ri'inarhni vnai. in* did not concur with liis friend. Ifa fugitive go into Canada, wc would have tlio right to make n demand upon n r??i*<?i(rn trovomiMent f r his restoration. But if we invade that Territory, the gentleman from Pennsylvania could see*it would involve us in much trouble, nnd would present a very sorious question, Congress limy authorize interference in the affairs ^ j, nf a foreign country ; hut as Congress is tlie war-making power, our oliicers haven" right to invade a foreign country without, authority. If we justify the. invasion of Centra! America by Paulding, wlint may n*?t Great Britain do ? If wc can land forces there ami interfere in tho affairs of Hint country. Great Britain can do the same. If this he tin violat ion of the Clayton Bui wor treaty, what isf The Government of the United States is bound to disavow the actof Paulding. Were wc to leave our naval officers discretion to commit' nets of this description ? The President himself cannot-do it, nnd certainly not his subordinates. Mr. Warren objected to the discussion of the merits of tho question on n mere resolution calling for information. "While prepared to vole for it, he was not ready to commit himself 011 the question till-properly advised on all the fnots. Kir.Cliti^man had no douht the House will gct'the information quite speedily, perhaps- tomorrow, Mr. Jones, of Tennessee, said it wa3 right that the House should be informed of nil the fncts relative to the fitting out of the expedition ill this country by Walker, and all the in formation respecting his capture oik} return. Voice*.?That's right." Lot's linvc it all." Mr. Faulkner moved an amendment to tlie resolution calling on the President to commutiieato nil tl?e fncls and informal ion which rendered it probable that William Walker was engaged Inst Summer and Autumn within the limstsof the United States in fitting out a military expedition against the people and territory of Nicaragua j also copies of all orders, letters nnd instructions addressed to the various officers of Government relative thereto; together with such other measures as were adopted to arrest said military enterprise and enforce the neutrality laws ; also unbrace the instructions, if any, to Paulding for the arrest of Walker, and showing how it has heen approved or disapproved by the Government. Mr. John Coc hrane would have the inquiry made to include nil the circumstances hearing on this important question. It was essential tt> know what was \\ nlUer's position in regard to the laws of tlie United States when he left onr shores. By what authority he assumed to net, niul whether his authority was an assumption against the laws-of tlie United States. This was as important- as his attitude in relation to the Government, itself. - Mr. Savage said the House was not in eon Tition nt present to discuss this question with justice to the country, the administration, and our great interests involved in Central America?interests such as no other nation has there. 'i. "Without being a partisan of Walker, he would say that the cause, of which Walker seemed tt> be the representative, whether worthy or un* ? worthy, deserved candid consideration. Jt tftts ti" poliey which looked to interests a? great and as the foundation of this Govern. , i>ment, As to tHe Clayton-Bnlwer Treaty, it was infamous, lie could not find language sufficiently strong to express his detestation of it. TJie Treaty was ns stupendous a fraud a* ever disgraced a country. Mr. Humphrey Marshall offered an amendment to Mr. Faulkner's amendment, calling on Y i- ' the President, further to communicate whether our Government, prior to the nri-n?i w..n.-? liad undertaken, by treaty or other arrange ment with the existing government of Nicaragua, to guarantee the peaceable enjoyment of the transit rpute between the Caribbean Soa and the Pacific Ocean, or otherwise assume tho protectorate of sai?l route, with the army , ' of the United States, ifnoeessiry. Mr. Marshall said his intention was to aseer> . fcain to what extent, this Government assumed tho protectorate wliieh-^ might inducc it to jrhield pu officer who violated the law. ' - j* .

The President in his reeent message to the j enato, whilst condemning the net of foiuinolore Paulding, in arresting Cleii. Walker, i i ledges himself to use all the powers of the Gov- j 1 rmncnt t<> enforce the neutrality laws. In his ! onst ruction of the powers conferred upon the ! ' overunient by these laws, the arrest could nve been justified, if made on the high Sens, j 1 it is, Nicaragua is the only party, who has ' IM.rl.f In ..fll... : 1 1 ory. The maintenance of those laws, ho urijes | 1 >n the ground ofjustiee anil humanity, ami in , ' lie following extract, shows it to be tlio true 1 ioliey of the Country: i] Bnt if motives of <luty were not sufficient to ; I est rain us from engaging in such lawless enter- ! i irises, our evident interest ought to dictate j < his policy. These expeditions are the inostefeetunl mode of retarding American progress; lthough to promote this is the avowed object I f the leaders and contributors in such under- i nking?. ltisbevond question the destiny of < ui' race to spread themselves over the emit in- j 1 nt of North America, and this at no distant day. i ' hould events be permitted to take their natur- j i 1 course. The tide of emigrants will flow l<> ' he South, ijiul nothing can effectually arivst its j irogrcss. If permitted to go there peacefullv, ! Central America will soon contain an American ! topulation, which will confer blessings and , >enefits ns well upon the natives as their res- t icctivc Governments. Liberty, and the res- ; raint of law, will preserve domestic peace; . vhilst the different transit routes across the sthmus in which wc are so deeply interested |' vill have assured protection. Nothing has re- ' arded this happy condition of affairs so much j is the unlawful expeditions which have been J itted out in the United States to make war ' ipon the Central American -States, llad one- ! mlf of the number of Amciican citizens who j lave miserably perished in the first disastrous 1 expedition of General Walker settled in Niear- I igu.i us peaceful emigrant-, the object which j ,ve all desire would ere this have been, in n treat degree, accomplished. These expeditions ! lave caused the people of the Central Amei-iean j Hates to regard us with dread and titspiciou. j t is our true policy to rcmov? this misapprcicnsion, and to convince them that we intend j o do them good, and not. evil. We desire, as \ he leading power on this continent, to open, j ind, ir need l)<?, to protect every transit route j (cross the I>?tlititus. not only for our own benefit, j >ut that of tho .world, and thus open a free ac- 1 ;crs to Central America, an~d through it to our j l'a< itic poenef-eioiis. This policy was commen-i icil under favorable auspice*, when the expo- i lit ion, under the command of General Walker, j . scaped from our territories, and proceeded to i'nnia Arenas. Should another expedition of a timihir character again evade the vigilance of jui officers and proceed to Nicaragua, this would be fatal, at least for a featfon, to i)ie policy of American progress The iruth is that no Administration can successfully conduct, the foreign affairs of the country"Jn Central America, or any where else, if it is to be 'interfered with at every step by lawlcss.inilitary expeditious "i?et ou fotot" in the United States, JAMES BUCHANAN.

Country Papers. The following remarks of a I?oston paper, harmonize so well with our own views and feeling*, an J our own self interest in the subject matter, that, wo cannot withhold the advice from our readers. The peculiar advantages of the District paper* arc obvious. They direct attention to matter.-) of loeal interest; furnish a medjum for the discussion of such questions, and thus Contribute to form an enlightened opinion upon subjects of immediate public interest. They are hence, the mure interesting, and thus stimulate a task for reading especially nmorigchil dren, whose attention is naturally attracted to all subjects of loeal interest. They furnish an amount of information 'which could renth tho^ reader through .no other source and in which everyone is more or less interested. In short they contribute in a variety of ways to the character, intelligence' and prosperity of the country* nnd appeal to the support are all : "People hardly know liow much they lose hv not subscribing to their country piper.
