SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS.

The Union, speaking Of the threatening as
pect Of affairs in Europe, says that war is sot
80 easy game as it used to DO in days gone
by; that the most self willed autocrat is obliged
to listen to the voice of civilization, and look to
the strength of his purse before he can dare
plunge his country into the horrors of war; but
that an oppressed and infuriate people, who have
no ambition but to achieve their liberty, and
no desire but to avenge years Of suffering do
not always listen to the same prudential con-
siderstions which prevail in the calm council
of a sovereign; and hence the greatest danger
of war at present.
The same paper urges action by Congress, at
the present session, on the bill authorizing the
cities Of Washington and Georgetown to use the
water from the public aqueduct
The Hteihgcncer contains an interesting
letter from its Paris correspondent, and is de-
voted to Congressional proceedings and news
