Senator Eaton,s Resolution.

Senator EatO II, as chairman of the Com
mittee On Foreign Relations, has for
mulated proper expression of national
sentiment, and Mr.. Hoar has been no less
happy in proposing an addition, without
which European powers would have a
just right of dissent. There is a cool i'm
pudence in the Colombian government
assuming that it has the right to make a
concession for an interoceanic ship-canal
without submitting the question to our
Government, in view of an existing
treaty. NJ. de Lesseps is no less impu-
dent, and far more adroit in securing the
late Secretary of the Navy as his attorney,
through which he has been able to de-
ceive the French people into the belief
that he has the support of the Ameri-
anGoyernment," and thus obtain mon
eyed support among the ignorant. The
passage Of the Eaton resolution, with the
addition proposed by Senator Hoar, will
assure Europeans that we will not permit
complications to grow up on the Isthmus,
and that our people feel sufficient inter-
in the subject of an isthmian transit
TO insure its early completion, and having
a common benefit.
