M- There is class of men who
are unbounded in their admiration of
the Constitution, just at this time, and
insist that that instrument should be
seen by their eyes, even should it in
volvc our National downfall. For the
benefit Of such we quote from an east
ern Democratic paper, the following:
If Beauregard should be found in
Washington to-day, unarmed. accord
ing to the strict letter Of the Constitu-
ton the President could not interfere
with him, further than to have him ar
rested subject to requisition from Gov.
Letcher! To hold him for trial in a
loyal state or district, would be in con-
fct with that clause in the constitution
which says the trials of all crimes "shall
be held in the state where the said
crimes shall have been committed"
Mr.. Jefferson-strict constructiOmists
as he was-approved the sending Of
Burr's confederates from New Orleans
to Washington, to be dealt with. The
constitution will beud before it will
break short of.
