Glorious Young America.

If any Americas can sit down and read Sec
retary Marcy's Latter to the Austrian Minis
ter, or more properly, the answer of Young
America TO Austrian Tyranny, and not get W
feeling two or three inches taller, the blood
Of freeman does not course in his veins. |
Is a noble paper, suited to the times and il
agreement with tll natural pulsations of every
American heart.
AS we have notSpace in our paper for the
entire document, We copy from the Washing

Important Diploasatic Correspondence IN the
Case of Martin K0keta. We have received
from the department. of state for publication
and lay before our &eaders this morning, the
correspondence between the Austrian govern
ment and that of the United States in relation
to the case of Koszta. 1t embraces the de-
spatch of Mr.. Hulsemann, the Austrian charge
d'affaires near thisg government, setting forth
the views and claims of the Austrian govern
ment in regard to tkat transaction, and the re-
ply addressed to Mr.. Hulsemann, under the
direction of the President by the secretary Of
state. 1t will be remembered that the Aus
trian government, several weeks ago, and i'm
mediately after thesbccurrence of the KosZta
affair, permitted itsalf to give to that transac-
ton, and to all the negotiations consequent
upon it, very unusual aspect, by addressing
to the principal European cabinets, in advance
of any communication to the government OF
the United States, a. circular letter of com.
plant and protest against the course adopted
by the American authorities. The speedy
publication, appareHtly not unintentiOnal, OF
this circular in the leading European journals,
from which, Of course, it was widely copied
in this country, was Smanifestly calculated if
not designed, to invoke from other govern
ments and nations not Immediately interested
in the transaction a premature judgement in
regard TO it, which, al resting upon mere
en pd,1e statement, could not be considered as
fair or free from unduk bias.
1t is to be regretted SHAT this departure by
the government of Austria from the established
usages and proprieties of diplomatic inter
course should have been so far countenanced
by the cabinets Of St. eetersburgh and Berlin
as to induce those governments to assume the
position Of voluntary pggties to the controyer-
sy, by insiructing their representatives in
Washington TO intimateio the President their
general concurrence in the view taken by Aus
tria of the proceedings ii the case of Koszta.-
1t is gratifying TO state, however, that the gov
ernments of France AID Great Britain, 10
which the circular was equally addressed, have
deemed it proper 10 proceed in the premises
with a far more praisewNrthy ciscumspection.
II is understood. indeed, that the cabinet of
Paris has not failed 10 make known 10 that Of
Vienna, its disapprobatioA of the proceedings
of the Austrian funclioRaries in regard to
KOs7ta at Smyrna, even supOn the Austrian
statement of those proceedings; and that the
view it takes of the translation looks rather TO
the maintenance of the rights and territorial
sovereignty of Turkey ihaf to the interests or
pretensions of Austria. The government of
Great Britain, though it has made known To
that of the United States the fact that its at
tentjon has been drawn to Ahe subject, has yet
given no intmatiOn that it regards The course
of the American functOnaQes In the transac-
tion as open 10 censure.
Under these circumstances il is evident that
Austria in advance of any claim upon us for
satisfaction, and in a manEer wholly unwar-
Tantable, has arraigned the government of the
United States before the tribunal of the other
grand powers of the world tDr the conduct Of
its agents in the affair Of kOsZta. This ex-
traordinary proceeding has 4eft TO the Presi-
dent no other course than AZ once 10 give TO
the world the reasons upongwhich he rests the
vindication of the American functiOnaries, and
the views applicable 10 thiss case, upon which
his policy is based. To The end that idst and
impartial judgment may be- formed upon the
whole controversy, il is deemed proper at the
same time to publish the Austrian views Of The
transaction, as set forth in The despatch of Mr.
HulsemAnn.
We need not commend toythe careful atten-
tion of our readers the powerful and conclusive
letter Of the secretary of staie Certainly one
Of the ablest and most important state papers
which ever issued from the department of state,
il will be read with eagerz Interest wherever
the English language is spoken; and its con-
clusiOns, sustained as they Hre by line of ar
gument wholly impregndSle, and presented
throughout with grave aid impressive eu-
quence admirably adaptedRo the subject and
the occasion, will challenge the assent of ev-
cry government which recognizes as the rules
Of its policy the great principles of internatun-
al law
but 1t IS an exposition ef the spirit which
animates and inspires tho foreign policy of
President Pierce, that this1etter of the secre-
tary of state will attract moa attention. With
out deciding upon the comparative importance
OF other great questions II foreign policy, 10
which the attention Of the administration must
have been directed, and which NAV ere long
absorb the public interest, he may saw that we
have In this letter a most Conspicuous and sig
nlhcant commentary upon fhe noble declara-
tiOns of the inaugural address. While ex-
cluding any purpose to aid ot protect seditious
political propagandism, and Drawing the nee
essary distinction between thk citizen and DOM
lclllated lnhabltant, 1t will carry new sense
of security to every man whdsn foreign lands
may rightfully claim the Brotection of the
United States. 1t will give ) new illustration
OF the position OF our country among the ma
tons and by every earnesT and jndicions ad-
vocate Of the liberal cause throughout the
world, it will be hailed witt satisfaction all
the more profound becauseS Che policy which i,
proclaims and vindicates il based upon those
principles of internationA law and Justice
which form the only guaranty of the peace Of
Christendom.
