INrER-OCEANIC CANAL.
EvARTS' SAY.


WASHINGTON, March 9.-Among the docu-
ments accompanying the Presidents message
on the subject of the inter, oceanic canal, is An
elaborate report from Secretary Evarts, in
which he sets forth its entire diplomatic his
tory, the main point of which is that our treaty
with New Granada is still in force. aud the canal
communication, should be accomplished in &C
cordauce Herewith, and with the concurrence
of the United States; that it is in such accord
ance which, under this t.eaty, must
be deemed essential, would be to-day under
the protection and guarantee of the United
States, and both its projectors and the govern
ment of New Granada would be authorized in
certain contingencies to call on the government
of the United States for fulfilment of treaty
oblig cations. Indeed, it is proper to add that
on several occasions the government of the
United States has been called to consider and
enforce its guarantee to the government of
New Granada of its rights of sovereignty,
property and neutrality in the isthmus.
Secretary Evarts, in conclusion. describes the
character of the weighty responsibilities that
devolve upon the United States by reason of
the construction of an inter-oceanic
canal through the Territory of
New Grauada, and remarks
it we'll may be assumed that no contract or
negotiations could be entered into between .
private protector and the government of Co
ton of the United States under the treaty, and
of necessity that private interests and the pub
lie engagements involved in reliance on the
power and faith of this government for their
protection, must be conformed to its rightful
participation and control in any arrangements
that may seriously affect the discharge of ita
stipulated responsibilities.

preamble and resolutions were adopted relative to
the recent decision Of the United States supreme
court in the of j. D. Coles county judge Of this
State indicted in tho United States Judge Riyes court
for failing to put negroes on the jury. The pream-
BILE recites in effect that the decision threatens the

completely under the control Of the United States,
and if followed to logical results will enable the
United States Congress to coerce the State judiciary
well State executive and leg isattve
in all matters, thus destroying the very vestige Of
State sovereignty most alarming doctrine to all who
value the blessings of liberty for the security OF which
the United States constitution itself was established

ators and Representatives in Congress to procure .
repeal of all laws of Congress which tends to the
ercise of pc not delegated to 1t by the constu
ton prohibited by it 10 the States especially Of
that act upon which the decision mentioned was rem
