for he believed that KnglauJ would js-rsl in her

Mr. Crittf.nucn said that these momentous an

very great ui prehensions in the public maul, par
ticularly when coupled with oti-r remark of the

ter, for instance, informing the Senate that Eng
land was not in the habit of receding from any
pretcuision which she once sets up, though we can
not settle the ditferciK-cs in anv other way, he vet
repudiates the idea of arbitration. Weil, then,
what was the conclnsiou at which the honorable
Senator arrived'! It w'as that war was inevitable.
Mr Cass olieerved that he did nol wish to con
vey any otlu-r idea than that he very much feured
thai war would ensue, boeanse he believed that
England would persist in hi r pretensions

instead of announcing an inevitable iaferedice,
makes his inference contingent ujR.n the ltapeu
1 ing of other events upon the concurrence of oth-
er circumstances. His conclusion, to be complete,
j will require various other facts: such as ihut Creat
Britain will, at the end of the year, take hostile

Sir, said Mr. W there are two wav.t. in either

I have stated them I think it will be obvious to

Mr. President. I am entirely of the opinion of
l:ic Senator Irm Kent
bb- to bring in) self tn
s . i nave not Deeii a-eiu-ve
that war will jrrow
i .1 .
out of li;,s matter, certainty not imnicdiatclv; and
I think 1 cannot h- mistaken when I Say that Ihe
recoiuiileiidalioiw which the Chief Magistrate has
mml- to Congress will not lead to iinv such result.
I think it impusdiie to mistake the meaning of
tl-.e President. He does not expect war. Issik-
inj ;.t the state of things around us. and at what
is stated by the Executive, I caunct believe that
he apprehendx any danger. i
Sir. I ulotuln rautiomdy from offering anv re
mark Uhiii that portion of the inetaMge which re
fvr.v to the negotiation. I abatain with equal care
Iroin any remark upon a correondpnce which has
h-ii published. I do not wish to sav whether it
d-jsa appi ar from that correspondeiice that ncgutia
ti.ni in so completely aud entirely at an end that
no nniicab di,;oeiitioit of the question mav be
i oked for hereafter from a diplomatic source. It
i enough for me, in o.-ur to accomplish all the
purposes of lhe few remarks, to say, that, while
1 .mi i:ic:ipable of bringitig inyseif to the belief that
the Pn-bi.lent apprehends any immediate danger of
war, I may lie allowed to suppose, or to imagine,
lha4 he, the President, may entertaiu an opinion
s;uiil:ir to lhat which lias been expressed thi morn
ing by theieiia'-or from Connecticut. He may
piusiliiy look for propositions to come from the
oihtr side, having communicated the ultimatum of
this overumeiit. Whether it he in this view or '
iiion other ?roimd that the exuectatiou is enter- i
tamed, it in enough for me to denrecute anv false
alarm that may arise to disturb the tranquillity of
th country.
1 he 1 resident may feel, an 1 am Ixiund to sup
pc.se he does feel, the full weigfit of tho responsi
bility which atlaches to him in relation to every
interest of this country, and the greatest of all in
trrcHW, the peace of the country. I am bousd to
"itppoee he uiidcrstands the iKwitiou in which he '
placed, and that he judges wisely as to the extent
to which he should sro in submitting proponilioiis to
go in KUbmittinsj propomlions t
Conjjrosa. There'bre, I entirely concur in the op
inion which has been expressed, that he cannot
regard the present position of affairs as leading to
any immediate dan-jor of war.
Acting upou thtwo conclusions, (said Mr. W.)

at the introduction of theae resolution is, as I have

Whereas tlw pvirity af the ha I lot -be I is indispen
sable for the securil v of the nghts and the free and
full expression of the will of the people; and where
as experience hits clearly demonstrated tliat the
naturalization laws of Uie L'nited States are loose
and defec ive. affording opportunities for the per-s-tration
of gross frauds, destructive alike to the .
rights and morals of our citizens and the stability
of our instituliaiis:
Ktlred, That the right, iuterests, and mor
als of the people demand an immediate and tho
rough revision of the naturalization laws, and We
regard it as the imperative duty ef Congrss so to
amend those laws, that, while a liberal and just
policy shall be adopted towards such foreigner! as
are or may come among us. the nghts and privile
ges of our countrymen shall lie kept inviolate, and
the ballot-box permanently guarded against every
