The editor, in this article, highlights some international issues. The reports that England has consented to modify the Clayton-Bulwer treaty turn out to be correct. The great aim of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, so fart as it related to an Isthmian canal, looked to the neutralization and perfect freedom of any water way that might be cut. The report of the majority of the Ways and Means Committee of the House of Representatives, in providing a tariff for Puerto Rico, different from that which prevails throughout the United States raises perhaps the most momentous constitutional question which the country has ever faced.
