The Philadelphia "North American" SAYS:

The absdiy and inconsistency of the course of the adj
ministraon admirably hit off in the following from
Prentice;
"The Washington Union says that the wings are for
loose construction of the constitution and the democrats
for a rigid construction of that instrument We suppose
that construe the constitution loosely go for the
provement of rivers and harbors while to consrue il
gidy is go for The digging Of The Ttuantepec canal
Merico."
Another paper pays us the honor of uniting our name
with that of Mr. Polk in the same sentence and repre-
sentng both being in favor of digging this canal by the
funds of the federal government
Anxious we are to obtain the right of 1cay for this
purpose-as we presume the President is-we say for
ourselves (and would risk little in joining him in the
same sentmenD that are opposed and on constitu-
ona grounds to the digging of this of any canal by
the resources of the government of the United States
No such power has been granted to it. directly or ndi-
recy, to dig any canal in the United States, or in the
sthmus of Tehuantepec. We have made this declara-
ton for ourselves before. Why should the perverse OBJ
snacy of opponents force us to repeat the decara
hon We contend that the canal should be made by the
money OF capitalists in the United States or abroad-hat
1t should be made by the contributions of capital
wherever it be obtained-that will be made, or
railroad erected, according the suggestions of
accurate observation and enlarged experience; and when
finished that all nations should be put on an equal footing
of participation in its benefits
