Spirit Of the Morning Press.

The IntclIigencer discusses the question
of changing the present duties on imports,
in well considered article superinduced
by the extent of the existing surplus
The editor makes capital defence of the
interest of the American manufacturers
as involved in this necessity for changing
the tariff: Upon the subject of the duty
on railroad iron he says:
I'VE presume the iron interest of the coun.
try would probably, under all the circuInstan-
ces OF the case, not object to reduce one half
the present duty On railroad iron which would.
at the present European cost Of it, be equal to
almost IS per ton with the proviso, however
that the duty in any event should be less than
that rate per ton in case of a decline in Euro
Pean prices. This would be great boon TO
all the railroads now projected or in progress
and with which they no doubt would be fully
satisfied
The Union's leader is devoted to the
recent manifesto of Messrs. Bronson and
O'Conner. The editor takes very strong
ground against the position assumed by
these gentlemen, as being against the vir-
tual pledge to forget and forgive under
which, he insists, they took office. He
pleads eloquently, the obligation on the
President to know no distinction between
the different factions of his supporters in
November last, provided they continue to
adhere to the Baltimore platform, and de-
nounces all, as factious, who insist on a
different policy.
The Sentinel comes to the rescue Of
Messrs. Bronson and O'Conner, exhibit
ing traces of sympathy with the Hards,
as deep and strong as that which the
Cn'on manifests for the Sofs. The editor
