MONDAY, February 25, 1855.

MONDAY, February 25, 1866.
COMMUNICATIONS were received from the War
and Navy Departments.
Various petitions were handed in and referred
to appropriate committees. ... y.
Mr.. BRODHEAD handed in petition from the
Bureau officers of the government, asking an In
crease of pay. Referred to Committee on Ways
and Means. .-.
Mr. MASON introduced resolution asking OF
the President this correspondence between this
government and that of England in regard to the
infraction of the neutrality laws.
Mr.. MASON supported his resolution by few
remarks .s,. eer,s# ..+.
Mr. JAMES said he had prepared a speech on
the subject; but as he found that the Senator from
Michigan Mr.. CAss, who for the first time since
his accident appeared in his seat to-day, wished to
speak now, he would give way. to him, and print
his speech.
Mr.. CASS then commenced his speech in favor
of the resolution, and in favor of demanding repa-
ration for the insult offered the United States by
their infraetion of the laws of neutrality.

Foreign News.

The Atlantic and Asia have both arrived
since our last issue, but we are compelled to
omit the detail of the news. Sir Henry Bulwer
has offered to mediate between Mr.. Buchanan
and Lord Clarendon. No news from the Pa
cific The English pressis quite warlike These
warlke manifestations have undoubtedly, as
we predicted. few days ago, grown out of the
cowardly imbecility of the present administra-
ton and its supporters in the Senate
Had the administration and its party met
this Central American question with spirit
which would have shown England that it was
determined to protect and defend the Ameri-
can construction of the treaty, we apprehend,
there would have been but little difficulty
England thinks it is to be another 54 40 and a
back down; but there was no American party
in those days which was determined to protect
the honor of the country at al hazards and at
all risk.
Times have changed, and so have men and
there is yet Americanism enough left to uphold
the country and protect her bright escutcheon
from tarnish.

COLONEL Orr i'm New York.

This distinguished Sag Nicht or ultra South
orn Pierce follower, has been perambulating
the North urging the Tory party to unity, har-
mony, and love, and calling on the schismatic
Northern Sag NIGHTS, including the Free-soil-
ers, Cochrane & Co., and the Pierce bullies,
Rynders Co., to rally around the standard
ofPierce, Abolitionism, and Southern disunion-
ism. In recent sr eech delivered in the city
of New York, he gave utterance to the follow
ing grandiloquent words:
"There is not in the Senate of the United States,
believe, one single foreign-born citizen.
In the House of Representatives / do not know
a foreigner. Your President, Vice President, and
all the Cabinet are Americans. IL is all claptrap,
to induce you to desert from old Democratic
principles, and from your attachment to the Dem
ocratc party"
What an amazingly smart man this Mr.. Orr
must be! "The President and Vice President
and all the Cabinet are Americans" Pierce
an American the Jesuit Campbell an Ameri-
canl They are natives 10 the manor born, "
but are foreigners in feelings, in sympathies,
and in practice--traitors to the land that gave
them birth The latter is the tool of John,
the emissary of His Holiness Pho Mono, the
Sag Nicht inquisitor. There are no foreigners
in tho Senate, either. What convenient
memory Mr. Orr must havel Senator'S Nal
lory, Yulee, and Benjamin, are foreigners by
birth. Mr. Orr says it is all clap-tap" to
saw that Pierce and his Cabinet are not Amer
loans. The same kind Of clap-trap," we pre-
sumo, which the honorable gentleman adopted
to secure the Speakership but Mr. Cobb,
the man who prefers "rarty to country, :
most adroitly put the Richardson rider Tin
the form Of the celebrated CLANCY Jones
caucus resoution) upon him, and it proved,
much to Mr.. Orr's chagrin and modification,
TOO heavy n load for him to carry, and the
,,niy raward his ambition received was to be
pushed aside, even by his own friends, with
out having rensi<ad the full vote of the famous
Irish Brigade.
Mr. Orr must either be very ignorant man,
or was pursuing tho game of clap trap" when
ho asserted there were no foreigners in the
Senate. Such ignorance is becoming only to
Sag Nicht and Pierce follower, and if there
are no foreigners in the House of Representa-.
tives, they are well represented in the person
of Mr.. Orr who is SO thoroughly foreign in
his propensitics and education, that he was ig.
norant of the fact that Mallory, Yulee, and
Benjamin were foreigners, and that the Consti-
tuition of the United States expressly provides
that the President and Vice President must be
natives. ~ .....
