The Monroe doctrine has been fully discussed in
the Senate to-day, and has received, heretofore,
different interpretations. Gen. Cass has given what
is supposed 10 be the modern democratic exposition
of the doctrine and it is very important to know
whether the incoming administration will maintain
and carry it out.
Causes fer the application doctrine, according
10 this construction of it, have often arisen and very
striking cases present themselves In the British
occupancy of the Belize and the Bay of Islands. If
we stand by the doctrine must maintain ii by
force, and maintain it now, it wiG fall into con-
tempt and oblivion.

strued, merely for home consumption.
Mr.. SOule is expected to speak on the Cuban ques-

Cass' resolutions tomorrow, or at an early day, and
much interest is felt in regard TO his views.
The Senate, following the admirable example of
the House. have passed the joint resolution providing
for equestrian statue of Washington by acclama-
ton and without debate.
The monument will undoubtedly be erected in the
Capitol square. The appropriated is fifty
thousand dollars, but Congress, taking pride in he
work, likely TO be satisfactory than any that
has ever been executed under their dTeclion will no
doub; grant much more money may he

miralion Of his genius will CT course secure for him
an engagement on liberal terms for the Statue
proposed.
Houdon's statue Of Washington, at Richmond, will
undoubtedly be taken as the best likeness eXtant of
Gen. Washington.
The homestead bill will be taken up in the Senate
on the 26th, but there probability whatever of
its passage.
