son. These bills too passed in secret session,
the people being in total ignorance of them. Yet
these bills worked well, and no charge of corrup-
ton, as now, heard against the democratic
party. California was another case in point. That
bill, however, was more guarded than those just al
luded to- No one, in any of these cases, complain
ed that the liberties of the country were in danger,
or suspected that one dollar of the money would be
appropriated to any bad purpose Three precedents,
then, were here found which he, Mr.. B., followed
no new plan had been stricken out by him. There
was no division of opinion in this district as to the
acquisition of Cuba. The plan for acquiring it was
the only question. The bill proposed by him was
almost identcaly that for the acquisition of Utah,
New Mexico and California. He would oppose a
bill placing in the hands Of the President thirty
millions of dollars except where the liberties of the
people were at stake. He had full confidence in
Mr.. Buchanan, but he would trust no man further
than our public liberties required. Not a dollar OF
this money, he continued, could be drawn from the
treasury till the treaty had been signed and ratified
and then for no other purpose than to pay for the
island-not dollar, even to pay the minister who
should negotiate the treaty. As to the probability
of Spain selling: Mr.. B. referred to the disturbed
condition of the European powers-to the inevitable
bankruptcy which would follow continuance OF the
present destructive war; and to the allpowerful ef-
feet of money at such a time. He had no doubt MT
Buchanan had good reasons for making the recon-
mendation to Congress.
Mr. BRANCH next alluded to an article in the last

million BILL which called out Mr.. Syme, editor of
