the Emperor, and at once submerged in the Austrian
Empire.
On the ground Of these principles aud these fac.s
he submitted to the Senate and people Of the United
States that the following propositions are fully ~
tablished
l. That the people Of Hungary, in tie exsrcis
of ,he rights secured to them by the Law Of
Nations, * q solemn and legitimate mama
asserted their National Independence, and estas
lished Government, by their own voluntary act
and successfully maintained 1t against all parpM
lawfully interested In the same.
2. That the Emperor OF Russia, without Just or
lawful night, iHvsced Hungary. and By fraad sa
and political Constitution thus established. sM
thereby reduced that country TO tho condition Of
province. ruled by foreign and absolute power.
8. That, although the United States, FROM thsM.
ctssity OF political society, recognized the exsnf
rule in Hungary yet, they arc not indifferent to III
usurpation and conquest BY which IL WAS sstas
lishea.
A. That they may la fully protest against that coz.
quest and usurpa.ion, and against any new armed
Intervention py Russia to uphold It against the will
of the people Of Hungary, II 1t should be expressed
This beng the whole OF our case, aud being thus
established, Why, he asked, shall Ne not proclaim
that just and lawful protest. Senator said ws
should not protest because the matter Is foreign DID
1t not arise In the family of nations and were NJ
not as a member Of that family, interested Ia is
welfare, ana The laws by which It was secured AAo
Their Senator (Nr. Cemens) tells us, that ssltinisr
est Is the first law Of Nations and that an emil shtsn
sense Of interest Offers no argument for such
course The value OF the objection cepe ncs on whSi
constitutes an interest Wheit was true that neither
treasure, or territory were to compensate for this
proceeding neither was needed, and promise Of
both would constitute no adequate motive. Tis
commerce OF Hungary would expand under repub
lie and would be Of interest to US riches AND aggran
