SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS

The Uni0R, treating of Wisconsin nullifca-
ton and legislative falsehoods, gives a history
of the Booth fugitive slave case, and says that
since Wisconsin fell into Republican hands, she
has secured q prominence in infamy-that We
have seen nearly her entire State government,
from the Governor down to the lowest Official,
Including large portion of her late Legisla-
ture, bribed with near q million of dollars In
railroad stock, to further the interests of q
plundering corporation.
The Union attributes the result Of the late
Connecticut election to the trickery and fraud
Of Giddings, Grow, Wilson, Burlingame, and
other 90 Black Republican freedom shriekers
and enemies of the Constitution and Union, "
who eanvassed that State Immediately before
the election, and also to the overweening conf
dence Of the Democrats in regard to the con-
test
The LutelligeReer, treating of the proposed
Southern Convention at Vicksburg, seems to
be skepticsl about its patriotic intentions and
Its representation of The SONfh,' and ex-
presses the opinion that if it is powerless for
good, 1t can at least do no great harm.

III New York, the opposition to the pro-
posed new city charter, now before the Legisla-
ture, is quite fierce. The main objection to 1t 10
found in that section which continues in office
until January 1863, the present incumbents in the
Law Department. the Street Department, and the
Croton Aqueduct Board, together with the City
Chamberlain. This arrangement is thought to be
the result Of political bargain for the benefit of
the ncumbents referred to-
