SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS

SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS.
The Union, in a very able article, sets forth
the evils suspending banks infict upon the
community, IN the way Of depreciating the
value Of every thing and cramping and black
mailing all classes in the community. The
editor shows, with great force and perspicacity.
that 1.-The measure Of relief" as it has 90 far
been practiced here, has proved aught but a
benefit to the substantial interests of the Dis
trlct OF Columbia. He has no idea that the
individual citizen who has nothing to do with
the banks is relieved from the pressure of
the times by finding all his property deprecated
ten per centum in value through the action Of
the banks
The Infslhgeneer re-pubIishes Gen. Pillow $
able and interesting rejoinder to Gen. Hitch
cock, for which we shall endeavor to make room
tomorrow. 1t shows conclusiyely that the lat
ter is actuated in his statement by intense ha-
tired Of the former, and thus invalidates the
string of accusations Of which his reply was al
together composed. But, in addition to his
able exposure of the motives of General Hitch
cock, General Pillow certainly ,disproves every
substantial point that his antagonist has essayed
10 make against him. 1t il, however to be re-
GREETED that Gen. P. has permitted himself to
be betrayed by the malignity which General
Hitchcock manifested towards him, into showing
temper in this able rejoinder, which will spoil
its effect somewhat with the casual reader The
truth is, every allegation against him made by
Hitchcock was years ago, Investigated by a
court martial that pronounced them all un-
founded, and thus ruined the standing of Gen
Hitchcock in the service. We always regarded
his resignation to have been the result of his
entire discontinue before a jury of his brother
officers in his persecution of Gen. Pillow, which
rendered him perhaps the most Odous man in
the service, and thus compelled him to abandon
it
