sPIRITOF THE MORNING PRESS.

The Tntsiiigeneer expresses itself highly
grati6ed at the fact that Col. Benton has un
tertaken to abridge the debates in Congress
so as to brig them within the compass of the
rts1ipg Of the community at large, who are
without the time and other necessaries to en-
able them to master such voluminous accounts
of those debates as are required by the sta'eS-
man. The editor quotes the Coloneis account
Of the proceedings of Congress on the 0r'sinai
fugitive slave law, of which but a paragraph
or two were preserved at the time, though the
subject has of late years proved one OF great
public interest
We have no doubt that properly prepared
sbridssmept Of the proceedings of Congress
since the foundation Of the Government would
prove very beneficial to the country, difusing
as IL would much information enabling the
public the better to appreciate the merits OF
current political questions. Such an abridge-
ment prepared by Col. Peter Force, really the
most competent man in the United States,
would be received with universal reclamation,
because all reading men are aware that he can
be trusted with such a task, being entirely I'M
prejudiced on public affairs With Col. Ben
ton the case is different; as such a compilation
from his pen cannot possibly be aught but an
other effort to cry down the men and measures
of past times that are distasteful to his own
idosy cracies
The Union discusses the Kansas question
elaborately; and refutss the Republican news
paper SANDERS on Southern Illinois, by quo
ting replies OF various papers in that quarter
Of that State to what We quoted yesterday
from the Rochester On. " Democrat! and
similar articles in the rabid Chicago Tribune.
The Union also republishes newspaper regrets
over the result of the election in Michigan,
that is to ostracise General Cass from the
Senate of the United States. This event will
be a great public loss; for all now look up to
General c. as public man Of valuable eXpe'
rience, ardent patriotism, and high character
as statesman far above party in the in
huences under which he acts. The country
at large, and especially tho State of Michigan,
are to be the real losers by the temporary
insanity of the majority of his constituents, as
soon to be manifested in the election of some
ignorant, blatherskiting abolition demagogue
10 the u. s. Senate in his stead.

which showed ingenuity. A gentleman had q

bet on the election, Offering such bet that it
was quickly taken The money was placed
