SPIRIr or THE MORNING PRESS.

SPIRIT or THE IuOhNINo fh6CC'
The Union moraliIes over the gradual dis
appearance of the North American Indian race
and argues to show that those who are wasting
their tears over the blacks Of the land might
turn the current Of their philanthropy in that
direction to great advantage.
The IHteiiigenceT, stirred up by the demurrer
OF the Alexandria Gazette to its persistent eff
forts to lull the South into dream of the en-
tire security Of its institutions, reiterates its
doctrine that abolitionism is but bagatelle
after all, and again classes those at the South
who most earnestly counsel Southern unity
against the step by step encroachments of the
spirit Of anti-slavery, with the ultra abolition
"agitators" Of the land. With the Iutelligen-
Ger we deplore the existence of spirit Of un-
easiness under the Union, at the South. The
remedy we recommend for that state of things
Is earnest efforts on the part of journals posses
sing the influence Of the Inteilieeneer, to weed
out of the North the state of things producing
1.-THE persistent determination of a moiety of
the voters of the latter to destroy the main fea-
lures Of the Constitution of the United States by
precedent, for the aggrandizement of their own
section. Our respected friends share "no panic
fears" concerning the march of Abolitionism
Yet they must know that in more than half the
non-slaveholding States of the Union, the STEP
ping stone to popular favor is, now, to be conf
ded in as being most bitterly hostile to the
South and least willing to accord to that section
the rights guaranteed to it in the Constitution
of the COnfederacy. They must know, too, that
in more than half the non-slaveholding States
the obligations Of the Constitution relative to
slavery and the laws enacted to carry out those
obligations, are already dead etters-yet "they
share no such panic
