The utter callousness with which the

Spirit Of the Morning Press.

The Union explains at some length the
circumstances causing the publication of
the letter from the pen of General Jeffer-
son Davis recently first appearing in the
Washington Sentinel. In the course of
this article the editor sets at rest the ques-
ton of the Presidents personal position
with reference to the New York difficulty,
Is follows:
The letter of Colonel Davis from which
the extract above is taken, was not written
with any expectation that it would ever find a
place in the public press. 1t was written in
the freedom and frankness of private CORES
pondence, and has been made public by one
of those accidents which frequently bring to
light great discoveries and great truths Its
author was not conscious that he had given
utterance to sentiments which would excite
admiration; but. in responding to the inquir-
les of personal friend, his only wish was to
unbosom himself, and confde to him the whole
truth as to his own position. In accordance
with that generous and unreserved confidence
which exists between him and the President
he handed it to him for perusal. The quick
perception and noble heart of the President mt
once saw and appreciated the value of the
sentiments so succinctly, so truthfully and 30
comprehensivoly laid down. and he at once
endorsed them As sound and patriotic. In
the franhness OF his nature, and in obedience
TO the noble and patriotic impulses of his
heart. the President expressed to Colonel
Davis bis high appreciation not only Of his
sentiments, but of the clearness. force. and
simplicity in which they were expressed, and
advised him to retain acopy. 1t was the copy
go retained in accordance with the suggestion
of the President. which was shown to the cd
itor of the Sentinel, and which subsequent
events have brought before the public. y
The Intelligencer, by way of enlighten-
ing its readers upon the condition of things
existing among the Harmonious, quotes
anti-Administration demonstrations from
the New York National Democrat, the
Richmond Enquirer, and the Washington
correspondence of the Journal of Com
merce.
The Sentinel discusses the denominations
of Free-Soilism and the beauties of indie

independent (no-party) papers.

The Sun comments at length upon the
proceedings of a recent meeting at Boons-
bOro', Md, called to consider the action
of the jury who recently acquitted Robert
Swami at Hagerstown, Nd, of murder.
The editor makes wholesome comments,
indeed, upon the tendency of such verdicts
IN such atrocious cases.
