SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS.

The InteIligeneer was not published to-day.
The Union contains letter, without sig
nature, from its witness to prove the truth Of
its previous revelations concerning the decls-
rations Of Mr.. Newton, the Pennsylvania Fill
more elector, whose integrity, it contends,
Fremont essayed during the canvass to seduce.
This witness, whose name is not divulged, re-
peats his version Of the affair, with full par
ticulars Of Mr.. Newton's statements made to
him, and alleges that another gentleman who
was present confirms his account to the letter.
We also find in the Union full and very
thorough exposure of the impudent attempts
of Edmund Burke, of New Hampshire, again
to foist himself on the Democracy 1t will be
remembered that when there was a prospect
of the national success of Know. Nothingism he
was hand and glove with IL. lending it his
cOuntenance in various ways to compass the
defeat Of the Democratic candidates in his
State. Subsequently, his name has appeared
among those "cracked up" in the newspapers
as 1t men to be called into Mr.. Buchanan's
Cabinet. He is not the only one of like kid
ney, politically, who is being gravely urged
by foolish people for a similar position, as
strange as the fact may appear in these com.
mon sense and practical days.

"LIBERALITY OF PHYSICIANS. 1T has al
ways been said that physicians would dispar-
age any remedy, however valuable, which
they did not originate themselves. This has
been disproven by their liberal course towards
DR.. j c. AYERS preparations. They have
adopted them into general use in their prac.
tice, which shows willingness to contenance
articles that have intrinsic merits which de-
serve their attention. This does the learned
profession credit, and effectually contradicts
the prevalent erroneous notion that their CD.
position to proprietary remedies is based in
their interest to discard them. We have all
ways had confidence in the honorable motives
Of our medical men, and are glad to find it
sustained by the liberal welcome they accord
to such remedies as ayers Cherry Pectoral
