ever TO these and insulting pretensions, ty
stating firmly and explicitly that they would mol
be submitted to- the President tells the two in-
terlopers, in substance, that if the people OF the
United States are satisfied, he will b. SO too
and in relation to the lsthmus, he contents him
self with telling Congress, in his message, thai
while the present disturbances in that quarter
continue, he can do nothing in the business. All
therefore, that England has to do, in order TO
prevent any action on the part of the govern
ment of the United States, is to continue to TO-
ment these divisions, AS she is now doing, and
persevere in her encroachments. The President
has given her the cue, and my Lord PALMERsroS
is too old fox to give up the goose, while SO
near running her down.
If know my countrymen, they will soon re-
alize the apprehensions OF the President, by a
universal burst Of Indignation, the very first
time either England or France attempts to carry
its threats into execution. Let them not be
misled or deceived The question at issue is,
MOI pheiher The United States are boiaad by The
obligations Of neutrality 10 Spain, bnt ,oAether The
Intervention of these t,0o poiosrs is not an mpu,
DEM 1temp, 10 frightea or force them into The
performance Of these obligations.
II know my countymen, too, am sure that
all of them who not the tools of England in
its pretended crusade Of philanthropy or the de.
pendents Of these TOOLS will be deeply mortified
at the humble, deprecating tone in which the
organ of the President enters into a defence OF
the conduct of the government in relation to
the invasion of Cuba. Why, truant school
boy brought before his master, could not have
sounded the bass-string of humility more must
cally. The tone assumed by the Secretary, |
confess, CRATES harshly on my feelings, as an
aged citizen anxious, at least, that his country
should sustain no dshonor while he lives. Ii
is, to my mind, not the tone becoming one
speaking in behalf of great republic, standing
almost the sole representative of the liberties of
aud accountable to the whole world
for the manner in which it maintains its position.
If it has done palpabe wrong, let it rectify that
wrong as soon as possible. Let it make ample
reparation, but no apology. This great republic
should never suffer itself to be brought to the
bar of nations, to hold up its hand and plead
guilty or not guilty.

PHILADELPHIA, Dee. 10, 1851.
| In consequence of the opinion delivered by
Judge Grer in the case of Cashier llanaway,
Mr. Ashmead, the u. s. District Attorney, has
entered noile prosequi on all the remaining in
dlctments for treason
Runaway and Elijah Lewis were taken yes
terday in charge of u. ). Marshal Roberts, TO
l. incaster, to be delivered over TO the State
authorities, to answer to charge of murder,
They were accompanied by the Hon. Thaddeus
Stevens, their senior counsel. Judge Kane in
timated in the circuit court Yesterday, that,
the evidence against Lewis was substantially
the same as that against Runaway on his trial
for treason, and as hat was not sufficient to
convict of murder, it might not be worth while
to retain Lewis to be tried for that offence
The probability is that both he and Ilanaway
will soon be discharged.
Williams, the colored man, who went from
Philadelphia to Christana to convey the ntelli-
gencc that Gorsuch and his party were coming.
has been admitted to bail in two thousand dol
lars, to answer to the indictment against him for
misdemeanor Williams will be tried the first
of January.
The remaining twenty-four colored men, and
Joseph Scarlet, white man, will remain ia
prison here until Wednesday next in order 10
afford the State district attorney for Lancaster
county an opportunity to lodge detainers against
them for the crime OF murder. Should he not
do this by that time they will then be admitted
to bail in the sum Of $4,000 to answer to the
charge of misdemeanor. But it is not likely that
many of them will be tried at all. 1t is said that
the amplest proof exists that only two of the
whole number were within three miles of Par
kers house when the riot occurred. The really
guilty parties have escaped to Canada.
The cost of these prosecution to the United
States up to the time of Ilapawny's acquittal,
has been estimated rs high as eighty thousand
dollars. But am informed by good authority,
that if the government does not pay the defend
ants witnesses, the cost will not probably ex.
coed seventy thousand dollars.
An urgent application was made yesterday to
the United States district attorney, to omit to
send one of the negroes to Lancaster, in order
to afford an opportunity to seize him as a runa-
way slave. But this Mr.. Ashmead peremptor-
Iy refused to do.
II has been reported that the jury were divid
ed on the question of Hanaway's guilt; and
that nothing but the character of Judge Grier's
charge secured verdict in his favor. This was
not the case. The jurors were inquired of yes
terday in the court room, respecting it, and they |
said that their minds were all made up as soon
as the testimony for the prosecution was closed,
aud before the case was argued, to acquit the

The DISCRIMINATION of Mr.. FooTEs forces in
Mississippi is shown by the recent action of the
Union Democrats there. The Marshall Je6er.
sonian, abiding to some movements on the part
of Mr.. FooTEs few Democratic supporters
speaks as follows
The UMoN DEMOCRATS OF THE CoNvEN-
TIoS.--We have learned, from various sources,
that the Union Democrats have called conven-
ton, to be held at Jackson on the first M onday
in January next, Of all who will support the
nominee Of the Baltimore convention. That
this call is signed by the members of the con-
vention calling themselves Union Democrats
with the exception OF some few, perhaps four or
tive This scheme, il is said has been laid out
and carefully planned with deliberate intent to
force the Democrats of this State to ackuow-
edge these men as the Democrats, and to compel
the Democratic party to come to them, and
hence the selection of the first Monday in Janu
airy. And they rely on the influence of Gen.
Foote, to secure the delegates whom they may
send, seats in the Baltimore convention, to the
exclusion of the Democratic party. This we
re ard as veiy hgh-handed move-the result
of desperation in Gen. Foote, who knows full
well that the Democratic.party of Mississippi will
trust him no more. Suppose he succeeds in
inducing an organization of his friends and fol-
lowers, separate from the Democratic party -
what would be the result With three parties
IN the State the contest might be close between
the Democrats and Whgs-and Foote'S party
would hardly amount TO corporaPs guard
But we most sincerely hore these men, who are
leading and participating in the move will let
"sober, second thoughts" influence them, (for
we have personal friends among them,) and
unite with the Democrats of Mississippi

RR The call of KossUrH for financial aid
has already been responded TO in New York,
and We learn that scheme has been set on foot
to raise large contributions.
The New York Times, which has constituted
itself one of the special organs of the exiled
Governor, gives the following information on
this point If this plan is carried out large
sums will doubtless be obtained. The Times
says:
"We are glad to learn that measures are in
active progress to make an organized effort in
aid of Hungarian independence. Twenty or
thirty of our most prominent and influential
citizens, embracing merchants, lawyers, mechan-
les &c, will act as central committee, in this
city, for the purpose of receiving subscriptions
in aid of the cause here, and of organizing
branch committees, in various parts of the coun
try, for similar purpose.
No cause ever presented has taken Grmer
hold upon the popular heart, than this In this
city, men in every walk Of life rich and poor,
are eager to contribute something to aid the
great cause of Hungarian liberty. An immense
number of small donations will be made
amounting in the aggregate to hundreds OF
thousands of dollars All that is necessary is
to provide an energetic and efficient organization,
ana this will soon be done. We presume that
by the middle of the present week, we shall be
able to give the names of the committee, and to
give all other information essential TO the prompt
and efficient prosecution of the great object
aimed at"
The same paper, of later date, adds:
"PRAcTIcAL DEMoNsTRATIoN-The first prac-
teal deputation consisting of number of work
ing men from the saamander safe mandatory
of Sas c. Herring called at Gov Kossuth's
rooms yesterday morning, at / l o'clock. The
Governor being busily engaged in preparing his
speech for the evening, NJ. Pulzky received the
deputation, who presented check of $500 on
the Broadway Bank NJ Pulzky returned his
warmest thanks on behalf of Gov Kossuth,
who, he said, knew full well that in them the
welfare of the nation WAS founded. He was
happy to receive this evidence, that they were in
every respect porking and not speaking classes

Kossuth still continues TO be Toasted and Hat.
tered in New York. The papers of that city
come freighted with another lengthy speech
from him, and several others at him, delivered nj
the Press banquet.
The officers of that banquet, which was given
at the Astor House, were:
President William Cullen Bryant
Vice Presidem-lIorace Greeley
Second Vice President-George b. Butler
Third Vice President Julius Froebel
Letters were read from Mr.. Webster, Mr.
Crittenden, Mr.. Hall, and Mr. Stuart, declining
the invitation and alleging their duties as an
excuse
We do not think that Kossuth's speech on this
occasion is equal to some of his previous efforts
Still it is quite an interesting speech, and por.
tons of it shall be laid before our readers. In
it he calls upon the Press to take up and press
forward his programme of action, already an
nounced in his previous speech, the main prop
ositons of which he reiterates in this 1t is
very evident from the scope and aim of this
speech that he is becoming wearicd of these
repeated pagearts-and after speaking, under
the plea of sickness, he withdrew, leaving his
hosts to enjoy the qualification of listening to
each others speeches.

PrQfeeflyc Policy.

The Albany Euening Journal (SEwAR1
Whig) makes the following direct proposal to
the iron interest of Pennsylvania, to anal gamate
with the consistent friends of American labor,
to raise the tariff Such an offer is very sig.
n6cant of squalls on this subject
THE IRON MOVEMENT IN PESNsYLvANIA-
The movement in Pennsylvania to effect mod-
fication Of the tariff on iron is very properly ex
citing very general attention. The tone of some
of the resolutions which have been adopted II
highly exceptionable To declare the tariff sat
isfactory to the poop e, and wise as n financial
measure, except in regard to the duty imposed
on iron, is neither true nor polite. The prin.
ciple upon which the law is based is all wrong
Ad valorem duties are neither equitable nor
Just. No law based upon that principle can
either prevent fraud or afford protection. 1t
tempts honest men and encourages knaves It
induces fraud and perjury, and effects injurious
ly the business interests of fair dealers in every
department of trade The morals "a well AZ the
country demand the abandonment Of the ad
valorem principle
Hence the consistent friends Of American labor
will be likely to hesitate about co operating with
the iron men of Pennsylvania, in their efforts to
secure the modification of the existing law in a
single particular only. All who desire change
in the law should stand or fall together. 1t il
their only hope of ultimate and permanent sue
cess. 1t would be bad policy to have Pennsyl
vanis reconced to bad law.
The friends of every other American interes
are ready to cooperate with the iron-workers o
Pennsylvania. They feel for them and symps
tbize with them. They appreciate their suffer
ings, and would go all lengths to secure then
relief. But it is not fair TO expect them to pur
sue a course which will leopard the o
the principle itself When Pennsylvania is rem
dered Indifferent, and her vote IL divided or cas-
against the principle of protection, the success
of that principle will be hopeless.

In the N Y. papers
To the People ofhs United States.
New YoRK, Dec. -, 1851.
Having come to the Unted States to avail N.Y.
self, for the cause of my country, of the sympa
thy which had reason to believe existed in the
heart of the nation, | found itymy duty to de-
clare, in the first moments of my arrival that 1t is
my mission to plead the independence of Hunga-
ry ana the liberty of the European continent, be
fore the great republic of the United States. My
principle in this respect is, that every nation-has
the sovereign right to dispose Of its own domestic
affairs, without any foreign interference; that J,
therefore, shall not NEEDLE with any domestic
concerns of the United States, and that expect it
from all the friends of my cause not to do any
thing with respect to myself that could throw diff
fculties in my way, and while expressing sym
patty for the cause, would injure it.
1t Is with regret that must feel the necessity
of again making that appeal 10 the public opinion
of this country, and particularly to those who pro-
fess themselves to be the friends Of my cause, to
give one proof of their sympathy by avoiding ev-
cry step which might en,angle me in difficulties in
respect to that rule which have adopted, and
which again declare to be my leading principle,
viz not TO mix and not 10 be mixed up with
whatever domestic concerns or party questions.
