SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS. The Union, of Sunday, in view of the day, heads its columns with a Fourth of Jaly article. {t further discusses our inter-Continental af- fairs, and suggests a more vigilant police over the Indian tribes 7 In reference to the difficulty between Sena- tors Gwin and Wilson, the Union says the con- duct of Senator Gwin was as completely ap- proved by every member of the Senate, with- out distinction of party, #8 that of Mr. Wilson was emphatically condemned; but because the members of that body were unwilling that the disgrace of Senator Wilson should receive any further publicity, the entire proceedingsin the Senate in reference to the dispute, have been excluded from the Congressional Globe. The Inte/ligencer of yesterday discusses the Fourth of July. te WASHINGTON NEWS AND Tae Sevexta Recinent New York Vot- unxtecrs.—We understand that Col.

Cumming’s Mormon guard, when he visited Provo, consisted of How- ard Egan, John Kay, Fayette Worthen, David Candland, Wm. Kemble and Col. Kane. In view of such details as these, it would seem dificult to doubt that the Governor was mistaken in sup- vsing bis own tnovements in the V ‘en so entirely free of espionage and restraint.

At an carly bour in the morning business of nearly every kind was almost entirely suspended, and every one—young and old, male and female— seemed only disposed to give themselves up to the celebration of the occasion inthe most spirit= ed and rational manner, and all betook them- seives to the points where the exercises would be most Jikely to please their own fancy. ‘The chief and most interesting feature of thé day's exercises was the grand Union Sabbath Schoo! celebration in Jewett’s Grove” Early our streets were literally thronged with young souls wending their way to their various schoolreoms.
