In 1872 what country did the US Congress debate going to war with?

This is a tough one.

The UK and/or Germany were threatening military action
against a Latin American country (Venezuala?) around this time, I think.
The issue may have been debt default.

I did not know Congress went as far to debate war,
although it and the President did invoke the Monroe Doctrine,
and make threatening noises.

I'll take a stab at the UK.
