From Our Own Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Thursday, JAN "a, 1856.
An attempt was made in the Senate this morning
to get up the debate on the Central American
question. but after several gentlemen had signifed
reasons for postponement, it was laid over till Mon
day next Mr. Mason, Chairman of the Committee
ON Foreign Relations, suggested this course, ana
the Others conceded Gen. Cass took occasion to
repeat what has been than once stated In this
| corresnondence. and Gov. Seward also cOncurred
in the same view, that the Executive had exhausted
all the expedents of diplomacy, and the documents
| accompanying the Message developed the fact that
the two Governments were separated by on irrecOn-
cilabe difference of construction of the Treaty of
| 1s50-ina word that the final demand had been
made and the final refusal had been given.

| opinion in this country, and decided one in Con-
| press upon this subject This sort of declaration
Is all very well in its way and may serve the par
| tcular purpose for which it was intended. But,
TO nv mind it falls far short of the practical sou.
| ton which it is so important to obtain United
opinion about what We agree that England had
violated the Treaty, but no remedy is proposed,
| and no measure of redress is suggested. Mr..
| CLAYTON. who made the convention with Sir Henry
| Buwer, is now in the Senate. II he regards the
outrage to our national honor so grave, and those
who are acting with him consider that the United
| States should demand the literal execution OF the
| Treaty, he and they ought to bring forward such
| proposition would compass the object. Words
| have been wasted for FIVE years and something
| more sui santial would suit the public taste quite
| as well lust now, if these "graye and reverend
seignOrs" are in earnest The Senate Is not only
| part of the war making power, but it is also
| component part of the treaty-making power. 1t

| diplomatic arrangements. The responsibility OF
| movement, therefore belongs as much to the SEN
| ate in this particular question as it does to the
Executives and there is no sort of reason why
Mr. ClaytOD or those who think with him, should
| not bring forward a bill providing the necessary
| means for enabling the President to fulfill the
Treaty according to their Interpretation. A step
| like this would mean something save good many
unnecessary words, and inspire reasonable share
of confidence in the demonstrations which are now
much too common for either good taste or states
m0nlike purpose.
The nomination of Mr.. Orr has proved as |
supposed it would do, nothing but change of
names. The official report of the caucus dscl0ses
that he was chosen upon the same declaration OF
principles" by which Mr.. Richardson was hrst
presented. Therefore, the prescription OF the
Southern Know NOthings is just as emphatic and
avOwed in the present case as 1t was IN the former
one. They cannot accept this alternative without
observation-disclosures that obstacle might be re-
moved if there were not others more lnsuperable
and more Immediately affecting personal consider
ations. Mr.. Orr attracted no additional strength,
and the withdrawal of Mr.. Fuller only led to
distribution of his limited strength among mui-
titude of aspirants for small favOrs. The differ
euces of opinions az to policy which were ex-
pressed in the Anti Nebraska caucus last night
did not in any way disturb the unanmity OF action
to-day, and Mr. Banks received larger aggregate
than he has commanded for nearly fortnight
