AUSTRIAN LEGATION,
Washington, September 80. 1850.
The undersigned, chaige d'uiIaues Of his
M M.jesty tile Emperor Of Austria, has been
sl.uc,ed To make the following cdmnunl-
cation to the Secretary Of Siaie. as
As soon as the Imperial g9verumen, became
aware Of the lac, that United States agent
had been despatched to Vienna, with orders
10 watch (of favorable moment 10 recognise
the Hungarian republic, and 10 conclude a
teaty Of commerce with the same, the uu>
dersiuRed was directed 10 address some cons
Gdcpial but pressing representations 70 the
cabiue. Of Washington against that proceed
ing, which is so much at variance with those
principles of international law SO scrupulous
" adhered TO by Austria at all times and un-
der all circumstances towards The United
States. In fact, how is il possible 10 recon~
cile such mission with the principle Of nom
Intervention SO formally announced by the
United States as the basis of American polls
cy, and which had just been sanctioned with
80 much solemnity by the President, in his
Inaugural address Of Ma1cn 5, lS49? Was
isin return for tbs friendship aud confidence
which Austria bad never ceased 10 manifest
towards them, that the United Ssases became
90 impatientfor the dowutaIl OF the Austrian
,uousrchy, and even sought 10 accelerate that
event by the uiterance of theiT wishes 10
shss eGoctf Those who did not hesitate 10
assume the responsibility OF sending Mr.
Dudicy Mann 0n such an euand should, in
dependent pf considerations Of pgopriety,
have burne ia mind that they were exposing
thcsf esilssary tn l,c treated as spy. II istu
regretted that the American goverulnent was
uot better Informed Ms tu the aciunl resour,
ces OF Austria, and her historical pcrsever-
nnce in defending her Just rights A know
ledgs of those resources would have led ID
the cuncluslon thata contest for a few months
duration could neither have exhausted the
energies of that power, nor tarned aside its
purpose to put down the insurrectiou. Aus.
aria hos struggled against the French revo-
luton fqt twenty-fiVe years; tho courage and
.,ersevstance which she exhibited id that
memorable contest have beea appreciated by
the whole world. 7e
To the ufgent representations Of the un'
derOiPped, Mr.. ClaytOa answered thai Mr.
Mann,s mission had no other objeci in view
than to obtain reliable information as 10 tho
true state of afftirs in Hungary by persona
obseryalon. This explanation can hardly
DO admitted, for !, says very lIIle rs to the
cause Of the anxiety which was fe, TO ascer.
tain the chances Of the revolutonsts. I'M
fortunately, the language in which Mr., Mans
instructions were drawn gives US o very cor
rect ideasof their scope, This language was
offensive 10 the imperial cabinet, for /, desig,
mates the Austrian government as nm roa
rule, and represents theFebel chief Kossulh
as an llIusirioas man. while improper ex.
pressions are introduced ia regard TO Russia
ihe intimate and faithful nlly OF Austria. -
notwithstanding these hostile demonstrations,
the imperial cabnet hns deemed il proper to
preserve conciliatory department, making
ample allowance for the ignorance Of the
cabinet Of Washington on the subject ol
Hungaran affairs, and it's disposition - giv5
ctsdence 10 the mondacious rumors which
are propagated by tie American press. This
extremely painful incident, therefore, might
hive been passed over, without any written
evidence being Ieft OH our part in tbe ar
chjyes Of the Unned States, had moi Genera
Taylor thought prope: 10 revive the whole
subject BY communicating TO the Senate, IN
his message Of the 18th of last March, the
instructions With which Mr.. Mann had beer
furnished on the occasion Of bis mission 70
Vienna. The publicity which has been Civ
enIo tba. document hns placed the imperial
government under the necessity Of entering
formal protest, through ns official repre-,
sentative, against the proceeding Of the Az
mefican government, lest that goyernmen'
should construe our silence into appreciation
or toIeration even Of the principles whicl
appear TO have guided its actioa and ths
melns il has adopted. q
IN view of all these circumstances The un'
dersgned hos been instructed to declare iha
the iapesiaI government totally disapproves
