SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS. The Union explains that the union-ef ‘abo- litionism and Know Nothingism at the North is steadily progressing, and details facts show- Ang that Senator Seward is rapidly obtaining the entire mastery of the coalition. The Intelligencer publishes a translation from the Vienna Ost Deutsche Post, of the Ath instant. explaining the circumstances un- der which so large a portion of the Austrian army was not long since withdrawn from ac- tive service, and indirectly taking ground against the allies, the journal quoted from be- ing « semi-official organ of the Austrian goy- ernment. The Intelligencer seems to regard this publication as an important step in the history of the war, and as likely to make a breach between Austria and the Western powers. Boring. The inevitable “E. Meriam,’ of New York, who keeps bothering the liege with all Borts of meteorological observations and sta- tistics of every description that one can make neither head nor tail of, is now expatiating upon the “heated term,’ which, he says, commenced on Monday, July 9, and still con- tinues. He says this heated term commenced with a sudden rise of the water of Lake Erie, in the Buffalo harbor. We cannot undertake to say what connection there was between the ise and fall of water in our harbor and the weather on the Atlantic coast; but here it continued cool—unusually cool forthe season— for six days after that phenomenon occurred. ‘We wish Mayor Wood would have E Meriam incorporated into the Farmers’ Club. That Ainstitgtion is an awful nuisance, and Meriam, With the best intentions in the world, is an- other. If the club cannot absorb Meriam, then Meriam must be made to swallow the elub—the two can no longer be endured as in- organizations.—Buffulo Commer- cial Advertiser. The Journal of Commerce has a trick of publishing the silly tucubrations of this de- yanged man Meriam, to the infinite amusement of those who derive fun from seeing the cau- tious and disereet “sold."’ Really it is a question which is the fuuniest—the crazy quis- sicalities of Meriam published in the Journal of Commerce, or the- gravity with which that Journal spreads them before its readers as mat- ters of public importance and interest. ges Soweruixe New.—There is a society in New York called ‘‘ The Boot-blacking Associ- ation.’’ The proceeds arising from the busi- ness are appropriated to the aid of the‘ now neglected colored boys’’ of that city, and for ** providing them a means of support and edu- cation."’ The attaches of the association are provided with a suitable uniform, by which they can be distinguished from ordinary boot- blacker: PERSONAL. ++++Hon.

Tag Sxaxe Stony a Huxsve.—The New Hampshire Statesman says, on the uthority — of s neighbor | WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP. | Mr. William D. Crampsoy.—This individ. Ral, recently removed from # $600:per annum place in the Treasury Depattment, published estefday, wherein he &ccounts for the appearance of the card pub- lished at his request in the Star, with the view of relieving him from the imputation of identification with Know Nothingism. In his last. publication he takes occasion to say of his denial through the Star of his identificition with the Know Nothings— ‘* Colonel Washington, the Assistant Secre- tary of the Treasury, who- seems to. be the champion of foreigners and Catholicity in that department, iaformed me that I must publish a card denying the soft-impeachment, or suffer the ¢ uences. I had & large family wholly nding on me fot support, to whom my pay of $600 per annum was almost indis- pensable; and although a member of the American party, aud glorying in the fact, yet, as I was not a Know Nothing, I felt that could deny belonging to the latter with a sae conscience, as there was ne such organization. “Mr. Wallach, the editor of the Star, of- fered to write the card for me, to whieh I con- sented. When he had written it, he read it tna hurried and confused manner, so that I did not understa’ t. He took the card with him, and on subsequent reflection, fear- ing that there might be something improper in it, I went to his office and asked to with- draw it. He told me I could not withdraw it, as he had sent it up stairs for publication. When I read the card, I deeply regretted that I had for a moment consented to any publica- tion, and still more, that my case had been used as a channel through which to attempt to pour odium on the American party.”’ * * * * * * As we are alluded to by Mr. Crampsey, we have to say, that he sought us to have the publication’ in question made, and we wrote the card for him at his request, probably after our own suggestion (to save time,) and made just such statements in it as his explanation to us of his peculiar position warranted, and then real it over to him twice with as much delib- eration as our business engagements warrant- ed. It will be hard for those of common sense to read what Mr. Crampsey says above con- cerning his -‘ conscience,’ without coming to the conclusion that though an active and earn- est partizan of the party called Know Nothings as he now declares himself to be, he labored to create the impression on the minds of his superiors in office that he was not identified with it. We take it for granted that his re- moval grew, for the most part, out of a disin- clination for his peculiar style of -‘ conseience,”* as developed in his assurances given thoze around him in the Treasury building, who probably were well aware that he ras a mem- ber of the party they designate as Know Nothing, which he denied. We sincerely re- gret that he ever applied to us to publish for him a refutation of the imputation upon him of Know Nothingism. but are by no means sorry that we coupled it with such compli- mentary remarks concerning the Know Noth- ings as have at length induced him to make a clean breast of it. There is to be no question hereafter as to where Mr. Crampsey stands in polities. It was our object, when applied to by him, to accomplish this very end. Who desires next to be helped out of a similar scrape? England in our Law Courts ted States District Court, before Hon. Judge Hi t= ment of the trial of the Crimean expe- Titioniste.

The above extract from the Herald (of New York) proves the entire complicity of the British Government with the efforts to fillibus- ter against Russia from ports of the United States, for belng a party to which Pettinger is now under indictment in New York. It is not enough, it seems, that the British Government should design and attempt the execution among us of plots for the vivlation of laws of the United States, but it seems she is actually ap- pearing through counsel in our courts in de- fence ofher instruments. These things may be remembered to advantage. The Hon. T. L. Clingman.—This gentle- man is on the stumpin his district of North Carolina, battling Know Nothingism with his accustomed vigor. Yesterday we received under his frank a short address from him to his constituents, upon the subject of Know Nothingism, from which we make the follow- ing extracts, by way of enabling the Szar’s readers to understand precisely how Mr. C. is pounding the moral treachery : “ Their Grand Council, recently assembled at Philadelphia, it appears claimed the right, not only to change the nature of the obligation of vaths already taken by members, but even to release them in some instances entirely. They haye arrogated to themselves the power to authorise their members to violate the solemn oaths they have already taken, and, to use their own language, commit perjury, and thus actually practice the dispensing power over crime. which they have been charging on the Catholics of the United “Be this as it may, fe must bear in wind, as iy tained in my speeches, that the great moral principle of the order is falsehood, us its great political principle is hostility to the right of self government now enjoyed by the American pane. They are striving to carry out this x principle by depriving the citizen of the right to vote, in all elections, according to his own judgment, and subjecting him to the con- trol of a set of secret political managers. ‘This is the direct object of the mouvement, and indicates its political principle. But the means by which they seek t carry out this purpose are those of deception, fraud and hy- pocrisy in all their phases. They are attempt- ing to dethrone rrutH from her high seat and elevate falsehood in her stead. They are striving to overthrow the moral system of the Creator of the Universe, and substitute in its place the policy and practices of Satan, the “Prince of Darkness and Father of Lies.” ‘These, therefore, the two cardinal maxims of the new petty, ebnstitute an insuperable objection to it. Even if the measures of gov- ernmental policy they profess to have in view, were ever so desirable, their adoption in prac- tice could not atone for the destruction of our present political system and the general cor- ruption of public and private morals. But in faet their programme of measures as proclaimed ty themselves has nothing to commend it. atever it asserts of truth consists of propo- itions that nobody in the country dealer, ends. *I know that many good men have by artful misrepresentation, and even by direct falsehoud, been induced to connect themselves with the order.

Per- sons of wealth and leisure may be expected to attend more closely to the education of their offspring than those of limited means, whose business or household engagements occupy their time almost exclusively. The habit of | that elass. in Boston, of sending their children | to those institutions, resuits in making them | the pride of such persons; while here, as in most other communities, it is by no meanscom- mon to find them taking the interest in public (free) educational establishments, which those manifest whose children must attend them, or go for the most part uneducated through | books. Thanks to a seore of teachers and gentlemen, who have for many years past man- | aged these institutions in this city, ours are alteady fuil of promise of the future. We greatly desire to witness the very speedy ful- fillment of that promise, and sincerely beliey- ing that if our fellow citizens generally, would make up their minds to send their children to them, it will be fulfilled in half the time other- wise to be requisite for their perfection, we take the liberty to urge on them thus to follow | the excellent example of Boston, in this respect. | List of Patents—issued from the United | States Patent Office for the week ending July | 24, 1855—each bearing that date: | Cephas Applebee, of Lyndon, Vt.—For im- provement in machines for cutting sheet metal.
