the three trains-twO excursion and one regular
in such close connection, without danger. and

SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS.

The Union, in giving the report Of the Grand
Jury upon the election riots, says:
"The report Is commercially brief, clear, and
concise in its statements and is entirely free from
partisan feeling of any kind"
In an article upon % The Northern Demoora-
cy and their Calumniators" the Union says:
Z" IL will not be denied by the extremists of both
sections Of the Union that the record of the De
uninterrupted devotion to the Union, the Consti.
tuition, and the laws-of common dangers, COM
mon disasters, and common triumphs shared with
their brethren of the Southland of heroic, self
sacrificing exeTtions in behalf of the equality Of
the States and the constitutional rights of all the
members Of our glorious confederacy. Exposed
to the malignant and unrelenting opposition of
fanatics and demago2ues at home for the nation
atty Of their views, they have supported the prin
cipleS of their party with aIdOr which could
not be cooled by defeat and fidelity which
aoated not jot or title in the hour of triumph
and confident repose."
The Lpteiiigencer devotes several columns to
the doings at the anniversary celebration on
the 10th instant, of the PHI Beta Kappa Soci-
ETY. Of Howard University, and in so doing takes
occasion to remark:
