SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS

The Union argues to show that such riots
as have Of late years taken place in Balti-
more, Louisville and New Orleans, wherein
the rights of citizenship are ruthlessIy trOd-
den under foot, initiate amazingly against
the progress Of the cause of civil liberty in
Europe. That is doubtless true, as their
tendency lie to shake the confidence OF really
enlightened liberals In the capacity OF man
for self government, which experiment Is be-
ing tried here under far moro advantageous
circumstances than ever before IN modern
timer. The Union also comments on the fact
that in New Haven and Brooklyn, the hot bed
of political religious teachers, the vote against
Fremont was overwhelming The editor (of
the UniOn) judges from that fact that in
stead of helping cause, the interference of
churches and parsons in politics tends surely
to bring it into disrepute with the great ma
.jori.y Of sensible and patriotic people
The InteLIiRsnceT says:
"The outrages committed some months ago
at Panama on the railroad passengers crossing
to the Pacific, doubtless directed the attention
Of our Government to the propriety of devising
some means by which to save our citizens from
similar outrages in future, as we'll as to rem
der the transit Of the Isthmus a safe and I'M
molested route for all travellers whatever.
With view, We presume to effect this import
ant object, our Executive has, as we under
stand, been negotiating with the Government
of New Granada for a cession or transfer Of
the jurisdiction or sovereignty of tract of
country on the Isthmus, embracing, of course,
the line of the railroad, and how much more

banditti which infest Panama and its neigh

that power in our own hands would certainly
be very desirable, if il can be effected without
compEcating or involving the exterior rela-
tions and responsibilities of our Government
to an Objectionable extent. We simply state
the fact of the negotiation, however without
touching on the political aspect of the subject,
of which our knowledge Of tho details of the
matter are too imperfect to permit US to speak
We have reason to believe that the InfelLi-
geneer correctly states the purpose of the
Government in the brief article quoted above,
which, the reader will perceive, is in keeping
with the article from Panama paper pub
lished in the Star few days ago. Up to this
time we have RETAINED from abiding edito-
