SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS.

The Intelligsneer's editorial to-day il
synopsis of the able speech delivered yesser-
day by Senator Seward.
The Union reviews the speech OF Senator
Seward, saying in the course OF its remarks:
-"At the close of his two-hour's TRADE, in
which he perverted and misrepresented the
positions and the arguments of the Presidents
messages, assailed his motives, and falsely
attributed TO BIN purposes that he never en-
tsrtained, he very complacently assumed that
he had convicted him of high crimes and pro-
ceeded, as lawyer, witness, jury, and judge,
to pronounce the judgment of guilt upon him
as criminal He did not, in so many words,
invoke his friends in the House Of Represen-
tatives to commence an impeachment. but he
clearly intimsted that he was prepared to pro-
nounce verdict Of guilty. All this only
proved that Mr. Seward holds the President
responsible for destroying the bright visions
Of presidential honors with which the triumphs
Of abolitionism in 1854 had battered him. His
assaults upon the messages of the President
left those documents intact, and only proved
the more clearly that they are impregnable. y
