POLITICAL CAPITAL OUT OF THE
CANAL OR PUBLIC DEBT BILL.

CANAL OR PUBLIC DEBT BILL.
Already we discover some symptoms, on
the part of the Locoloco press, To auepl po-
ltical capital out of the Canal Bill. This |
strikes us as lille strange, il any thing
could be considered strange from such
source-surely the attempt on The part o.
iocoiocoism to claim The merits OF this great
measure; on the passage OF the Bill, as Pc
culiaIly belong 10 the selt-siyed Democracy
| must 10y all be considered ridiculous in the
extreme.
Perhaps there was not much politics in the
ma,ler-except so far as the number of votes
go-which show undoubtedly majority oil
Wings supporting The Bill. But certainly
Locoiocosn has nothing 10 boast on this sub
jeci; and ifihe attempt is persisted in, thus
improperly 10 appropriate the Canal measure
n 10 Locoiuco purposes, we shall now, and
henceforth, resist il, and prove from the re
cords that the Wings are entitled to The cred
ii.
: We are led TO these remarks at present,
from some insinua,ions already ekeing forth
! from Locofoco papers. From an editorial in
ii late State Sentinel, we extract the follow
D ing:
"Our bondholders. seeing the Democrats
of Indiana were favorably disposed towards
;, an arrangement, sent on an Agent who has
. been in The State for the last several months
Il and with whom an arrangement has been
made at the present session of the Legisla-
Il iure, subject to the ratification of our bond
holdes.''
al What sort of visions The bondholders may
q be blessed with, TO see only in Democrats q
IS favorable disposition TO an arrangement o
n their debt, may be judged OF, perhaps frou
r, the following vote, on The final passage OF ih'
i, CluaI Bill We take the list of Ayes and Noe
