SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS. The Union, speaking of the ‘ Postmaster General and the New York Times,” that paper having charged the Postmaster General with extravagance and folly in executing a law of Congress directing the establishment of an over- land mail route, says that aside from the mere question of responsibility for the establishment of the overland mail, the Times cannot fail to see that it was not a revenue messure. The Unton is convinced that the Postmaster Gen- eral, in putting into operation the route, knew perfectly well that it would entail a serious tax upon his Department; but it was estab- lished for important State reasons. It was in- tended to open up to settlement the great inte- rior of the country, to create highways between the Atlantic and Pacific, and to invite travel across the continent; and, in the opinion of the Union, it is abundantly justified by considera- tions of State poliey. The Intelligencer is devoted to congressional Proceedings and news to-day. {™ The tobacco crop of Ohio for the past year is estimated to be worth $3,000,000. 1" The Central Park skating pond in New York has been visited by thousands of PFrsons, several of whom on Monday, got their ears frost Ditten I> A few nights ago some balfa dozenslaves belonging to Mrs. Barnes, Oliver Johnson, and others, inand about Morgantown, Va., ran off upon the ‘“‘anderground raUroad.’’ icp The Delaware Legislature, it is said, wil Pass the act granting lottery Privileges so as to aid the construction of railroads in the State, Without involving the State's credit. _—— {>> The State Prison Inspectors of New York have made a report in the case of Moore, the con- vict, who died recently in Auburn State Prison after undergoing the punishment of the shower- bath. The inspectors review the facts of the case, arrive at the conclusion that the man really died in consequence of the excessive punishment, and yet exculpate the officers of the Prison from blame. But while the Prison officers are exempt- ed from the penalties of misdemeanor in this par- Ucular case, the Board recognize the danger which attends the unregulated use of the shower- bath in Prisons, deeree its total abolition asa means of punishment, and forbid its use under any circumstances unless by advice and direction of tne Prison physician erent Naval .—Flag-otticer McIntosh, of the U. 8. home squadron, bas been obliged to return home on account of ill-health. Oa the occasion of his deaving various demonstrations of respect were made, both by the residents of Panama and As- Pinwall, and by those who had been under his command. He sailed for New Orleans, via Ha- vana. Midshipmen Eastmar, Blodgett, and Cook return home with him.

They report meeting with British vessels Diadem and Czsar, now lying outside of Greytown. The Jamestown was struck with a Squail in the Caribbean sea, and came very near ending her cruise like the ill-fated Albany inthe same waters. The flag ship Merrimac, and sloop Decatur, are still at Realejo, Nicaragua, but the latter is ex- Pected to sail for Panama in February. The St. Mary’s is at Guayamas, Mexico, and the Vandalia at the navy-yard near San Francis- co undergoing repairs. Both ships may be ex- Pected at Panama soon.

Senator Sue.y’s Letrer —Senator Sli- dell publishes in the Union of this morning a letter, called forth by that of Senator Douglas, which we published yesterday, wherein he ex- Plains in detail all the facts inducing him to believe that Senator Douglas was certainly privy to efforts to procure the insertion of anonymous aspersions upon him in the news. | ™atter was to order the printing of the docu- papers, prepared by the hand of Senator D.’s private secretary. ‘This Seoretary, it will be remembered, was the same who, accompanying Sen: tor D. throughout his late canvass, was the author of the one-sided reports of his dis- cussions with Lincoln, and puffs of D. which afforded the newspaper world | and a number of bills of the extravagant 80 much amusement. That is to say, as illus- trations of the capacity of the stomach of the illustrious Senator from Illinois to digest and be nourished upon puffsso gross and palpable, as that they would have been ‘ ‘thrown up,’’ as too nauseating, by the illustrious Barnum, in the times when, (Senator Douglas not having gone into that line of business,) he (Barnum) was | ° thought to be the most remarkable Procurer of Bewspaper puffs of himself, and detractions of those supposed to stand in the way of the suc- cess of his charlatanism, the country had so far produced.
