Mawr d hear. rin the evening, Mr. G. H. Moone said it was unne- sary for him to inform the House that he was not sa- fied with the answer which he had received a few nutes pince from the noble lord with regard to the re- ions between this country aud America. When he re- Iccted that the noble lord had already granted a day the discussien of that question before tne rs bear- 4 “ee it were completed, and when he recollected also at the Home Laat ¢ thought proper to taunt toe bt hoporable member for Droitwich with anticipating oming discussion by a premature expression of opin- 1, be (Mr, Moore) must say the answer ef the noble d was a5 umexpected as it was unsatisfactory.

He did not think, 'werer, at tho time that the production of the paper to sich the poble lord referred could by any possibility r or modify in any essential part cular the nature of }* question which the House would ultimately have to side, and he must say that opinion had not been anged by the production of the paper he had had the stortane to read to-day. They were told by the noble d that it would be unwise even now to stir the ques- a, aod that it oe be injurious to the public service, with the pentg, negotiations, if that House ire to give expression to its opinions upon a subject i}: posed to be counected with tbe matter to which those I zotiations referred. They had heard wo much of Par- dise assion being mjarious to the pudlic ser- le. They were told the same thing of the late war, ithe cowutry had, in consequence, drifted into war hout knowing it, and in the worst state of prepa- fion. He did not believe that discuseion would be in- ious now. He thought, on the contrary, that, what- or bac been done well during toe late war had been xe under the pressure of public opinion in that use and out of it, and that all the misman- pment had been worbed out in the holes and ‘nere of ctficial intrigue. He was bound to say ex- sitly, that he saw nothing in the conduct of the ne- jations which ovght to induce the Houge to pause in Hsnouncing an opinion, and that it would be unwise ;! injurious not only to the public service, but to the dit aud honor of the country, to leave the mapage- nt of this question to the undirected discretion of the fyernmect. But there was a more important question ju this involved. What was the state of public opin- at tbe present moment? Why, there were tens hundreds of thousands of men, not ignorant or un- » but men of sound understanding, and with a ht minded sense of justice, who hai a’strong con- that this country had been humiliated and mnged iu the late transactions, and who thought that, ugh there was no cause for present hostilities, yet ' re was reason for a watchful and resentful Pousy of outrage upon our Lonor hereafter, (Hear, wr.)

(Hear, hear.) Was je and jvst, therefore, in the House of Commons yemain siidt, and to leave the iblic to sit down bite Clieir thumbs in an ignominious silence? Was thelr duty, on the contrary, to prevent such a feel- i, from grow and festering in the minds of the of Engian: nd was it notthe duty of the House 5, as the guardians of the national honor aud represeatat.:es of public opinion, to proununce a dict upon this question which should be worthy of ir reputation for justice, fair dealing and good faith other countries’ Such a course would tend more i}vin reepect than all the crafty circumlocution of all f protocols in the world. If the United States govern- it had been “deceived, irritated and offen as an orable member on that (the opposition) side of the had aseerted, was it not the duty of that House, pj only to the government but to their fellow subjects, ijass its censure upow those by whom the interests of iitwo countries bad been perilled?

Mr. Buchanan ia one of those men who have changed the outside of their litics rather ihan the inside. He bas adopted a totally ifferent party name from the one he commenced with, and bas passed every point of the political compass, from the old federalist to the democrat, at which point he now sticks; but there has been a principle of unity and con- sistency in the charges. His watchword bas always been “American greatness.’’ He started as a federalist, and the United States journals to his y now give at full length his flaming speeches against the Madi- son democracy, in which the democratic party in the United States are charged with profligacy, treason and national parricide. But federalism was in those days the cement and bond ef American union, the principle which Prevented the diflerent States from setting up by them- solves, and becoming so many insignificant, petty, sepa- rate republics, like their Spanish sisters’ in Gentral and South America; and, as being the bond American union, federalism was the one security for Ainerican greatness. But torty years have made a dif. ference in this reepect. With the immense influx of popu Jation from the World, the constant, unceasing tid» of omnigenous, promiscuous crowds, secking a new home in the United States, what has followed a3 the paturai consequence, the rapid formation of new State; m the Union, federalism to be the ons cement and bond of American uniny. A comparatively small number of old settled S.ates, which remembered the © nstitutional Washington, could respond to such an appeal and Jean upen a federalist centre. But what does an omnium yy of people from all the countries of Europe, the anaual discharge of dense cities, heated atmospheres and famishing soils—what does & restless emigrant collurica—what does « group of mushroom States, that were formed yesterday, care about Washington and federalism? You might as well talk to them gbout Cato, or Aristides, or any other an- cient of unexceptionable virtue and soundest republican- ism. You must have some new idea and watchword to bind these promiscuous multitudes together, and pre- vent the whole from dissolving into chaos, and that idea is empire. The instant the idea of power arises in a population—the notion that they must be a people, spread, expand in territory and influence, cover @ large space on the surface of the earth, an be, in short, an empire—that idea becomes at once a strong bond of union, for union is a necessary means for realizing it. This, then, is the Amrrican democrat’s watchword, and to this he sacrifices every consideration- He does aot like slavery, but he allies himself with the slaveowner, because “we must keep together and be a great people.” It docs not do to be scrupulous, When people are tender of conscience they differ,and when they differ they quarrel and break up. The democratic iy in the United States thus fuses all differences and all scan- dals in a necessary national unity, and makes every question give way to the one idea of American great- ness. Let ‘nigger worshippers’ and fanatics divide and destroy—he is for unity and strength at any cost. Thus the watchwords of ‘‘America for the Americans,” and the “squatter sovereignty” aud ‘manifest destiny,” are the engines of the democrat. He is for ering every- body, whoever he is, and letting him have his own way— slave owner, squatter, and everybody else, so long as they will keep together, and make Americaa great and upited ple. Let us forestall, then, if we can, the reign new democratic President, and settle our Cen- tral American dispute betimes. AMERICANS AT THE QUEEN'S LEVEE. Admittance of an American in a Yellow Vest Refused at the Queen's Levee—Mr. Dallas ieaving the Palace—Conduct of the Queen, {¥rom the London Times, June 26.) When will Americans learn manners? Who shall teach our transatlantic cousins how to behave? Here is one of them who tried on Wednesday, in defiance even of an eti- quette modified to suit his countrymen, to parade his re- publican person before the Queen, at her levee, in a frock coat, black peckeioth, and one waistcoat. The thing itself was trivial, but the object was unmistakable. He wished to have it to boast that he had compelled the Queen to forego the usages of her court in this especial beboof. He tried to accomplish this national feat under the wing of Mr. Dallas, who, when SO pg “4 to, supported bis countryman and left the palace ina pet. ‘Well, after all, we suppose her Majesty will continue to hold levees inspite of Mr. Dallas’ displeasure. It is scarcely worth while toconfute the absurd pretensions of who, with the most irritable touchiness as regards themselves, combine the greatest disregard of all decorum towards others. The Queen of England says to her subjects and to strangers who visit her in her own heuse, “I am happy to see you all on state occasions, but if youcome you will find me gorgeously arrayed to do you honor; return the compliment, then, and come in your best."’ She tells her guerts, in fact, as hundreds of ladies and gentlemen ia this country are in the habit of telling their friends, “This is a “full dress party,’ ’” thereby implying that all who do not choore to observe the rule bad better Lag away. What should we think of a fellow in private life who, after accepting au invitation to a set dinner, at which everybody else wore full dreas, presented himself in a shootin, id shepherd's plaid trousers? In all such @ portent appear on the horizon 's hall, it would never rise to the wu; re- room, for the butler would ib} show him to the door. Now, this is what the Queen's master af the ceremonies very properly did in the case of an American who, in a frock coat, — vest, and bisck neckcloth, chose to present himself at her Majesty's levee yesterday. He knew the usage of the court, but be preferred to withhold from the Queen and ber august compeny the compliment which every gentleman would bave rendered. ir American cousins must really learn Me good old proverb about ‘doing at Rome as they do at Rompe,” and, though they may live at home tn the iy ment of all liverty or license of dress or undress, they must, when they virit these communities, either disguise themselves and their republican preyudices in decent at- re on occasions of state solemnity, or forego the great- est delight on which a true republican can feast his cager eyee—the sight of a live Queen oa her throne. (From the London Globe, June 26. An unpleasant little acci¢eut happened in the circle of the court on Wednesday—an accident not less lamenta- ble because itis Taughable. A gentleman entered the palace yesterday for the pu ‘of being presented to the Queen, but bis costume did not conform t those ex- ceedingly' simple regulations which anybody can ob serve, and there were some other irregularities in the case, The gentleman was an American. There has been every disposition to put.a liberal construction upon the requlremeuen of the court when Americans have been in question, since it has been felt that the natives of the transatlantic republic have been placed under some dif- feultie certain rules which their government has thought Mit to ado nd any irregularity that dif not torce itself opbn the notice would passed But there were certain traits in the costui gentleman’who was hero of Wednesday's adven- ture which were somewhat too ob vious to be overlooked. ‘The frock cont might possibly be what it was represented to be, the uniform of some office in America, though it was not known to the authorities at St. James’ Palace, The eye of criticism might also glide lightly over other portions of the gentieman’s fress. But the yellow vest would not suffer the eye to pass it, and the biack necktie was ofa kind to challenge attention where the regulation requires white neckcloths. Tt was absolutely necessary, therefore, that the master of the ceremonies should inform the gentieman who then presented himself that he bad not yet completed bis toilet in a manner to conform to the rules for bis admission, All who know the master of the ceremonies Will presume, and will presume correctly, that this intimation was made with the utinost consider- ateners and courtesy. It aj red, however, to give weveb offence, which manifested itself in the indignant jui.guage of the American, and we fear we must allow in ti © indignant tone of his voice, the more remarkable from the subdued tones which are customary in that region. It if rot for us to pry into the resources of the carpet bag; imagine that a retirement of fiteen minutes might have enabled the visiter to amend his cos- tome. The republican, however, took fire; he would not give way: be claimed admission in bis “uniform” as , and when that right was not acknowled Noted upon St. James’ the penalty of his Persons have before at- ment. So for the matter was tempted to force their way into the palace in costume not permitted by the regulations, and they have been pre vented.

The most unfortunate part of the matter is, that the American Minister identified himself with the ridi- culons obtrusion on the part of his countrymen. can weil understand Mr. Dallas’ difficulty. Every American in offic is open to the claims of avy “citizen’’ that chooses to obtrude himself; and men who have not firm nerves sometimes give way before the assertion of these @aims, Ry some unaccountable oversight, which we, of course, are notable to explain, this citizen had been suf: fered to accompany Mr. Patias to St. James’ ° ina ceetnme which any ng person must have known to be inadmicsibie. Sir. Dallas and the excluded gentle man stood together in the ante-room; there was, as is usual on such occasions, some kind of discussion; the Miniter nd doubt felt yexod, displensed, sorry that the thing should have bappened; in the flury he no doubt lost Lis self possession for a moment. and inatead of bidding bs companion good bye, with a hint to dress bettor next time, Mr. Dallas most unluckily chose the course of taking bie own departure with the retiring countryman. Itis wot for us to polat out to the American Minister the duties of his o1 towards Americans. The master of the ceremonies maintained the regulations yesterday, aud there, we cenceive, the matter ends, so far as we areconcerned. It did bay \, however, that Mr. Dallas had a specific duty to perform thatday. The name ot a dietingnished American gentleman bad in due course been submitted to the Lord Chamberlain for presentation to her Majesty. and we presume that that gentioman was ready to be presented. Wo are quite sure toat Mr. Datlas conld not intend any disrespect to her Majesty im absent ing bimeelf at an hour when be had given reason to ex ct his presence; any consequence of that kind must pave been forgotten by the honorable gentleman in the hurry of the moment; but his duty to his countryman unquestionably remained wnperformed.

We understand that the facts of the case as to the con- tretemps at the Queen's levee on Wednesday are these:— Mr. Dallas and his diplomatic subordinates were in their ordinary diplomatic costume, The United States Minister was accompanied by the Profeseor of the Mili- tary Science in one of the United States professional esta- biisbmente. This gentleman wore his ordinary and proper uniform, consisting of a military frock coat, white waistooat, and black stock, such as he presents himself in before his military superiors, and that he es- pecially selected this as the proper ccstume in which to appear at ber Majerty's levee, for presentatlon by the Minister of his government. On being refused admission by the Master of the Ceremonies, Mr. Dallas retired with him, not in anger or disgust, but with great regrot at the oceurence. It is proper to add that her Majesty, on being informed of the difficulty raised by the Master of the Ceremonies, at once directed the admission of the gentleman in question. | Self to the rules with which the noblest and most powerful Unfortunately, however, before ‘ke Queen's gracious font brosian, axe weauirnd So commaty. pie Spe role, of di Ai 1 dicey could be delivered, the party had left the meg ys ly offend the fe “of others; at [From the London Post, June 27.} if the Americans want a rule for , there are Frverybody is by this time aware of an occurrence that | fW better ones than to endeavor to rather than took place at her Majesty's levee on Wednesday. As it yt i special observation. evidently arose out of the indiscretion or ignorance of an individea), we abstained from giving publicity to this un- pleasant affair; aud we are the more satisfied with hay- ing taken such a course, as we have now reason to be- lieve that the United States Minister lost no time in offer- ing apologetic explanations, aud that these have been accepted. {From the London Chronicle, June 27.) Another deterrima cavsa belli is now added to the Cen- tral American aud Enlistment disputes. - The frock coat, black neckcloth and yellow calimanco question, casts into the shade all other subordinate political coacidera- tions! Mr. instead of quoting Puffendorf aud Gro- tius to establish the Monroe principie, and to prove that the United States is the least designing, the least aggran- @izing Power in all creation, must now invoke the genius of Moses himself, in order to settle satisfactorily as arbiter elegantiarum, not the destinies, but the fashious of the courts of Europe. Upon reading the list of presentations, at the Queen’s levee on Wednesday, we were struck, at this joncture, with the absence the of Amevican Ambassador, Mr. Dallas, and bis attaches. A contet rary, however, has explained the cause of this remarkable circumstance. It seems that some American gentieman, whe, we suppose, is frem old Kentuck, or is a downright down Easter, ‘presented himself at ber Majesty's levee in a frock coat, black neckcloth, and yellow waistcoat, having complied with the other usual preliminary apology for the insolence of this very free and easy diplomatist is certain to be.made ou the score of repubji. can simplicity. We are not inclined to allow much validity to this reasoning. There are probably no people more vain without reason, aud more ostentatious without taste, than the wealihier class ot Ameiican citizens. In most of capitals the representative of has aesociated that embassy with such a character for lavish pomposity, that no man of smal! or even fortone ventures to undertake it.
