Such travel lers miss I he true uses Oa summer vacation, witioh, • it seems to me, shmild bo•spent Under circumstance* as widely different fromone's accustomed pursuits as praoticable. Thus.year correspondent, a toiling man of the desk and the pen,'ltas sought his presort place Of sojourn, bringing. his family and a conga- • nial party or meads to a" plain farm house in the' Valley of the Catskill Creek, and yet 2,0130, feet above the level of the sea. Ascending the Hudson, a voy age whloh every one should take once in 'a while, if only to stir up•the slumbering romance dormant in the most prosaic nature, we land at the town of . Catskill, and taking the primitive mode of convey— ance, best adapted to see thepeountry and enjoy the society of your fellow traveller, ride by stage to— ward the north-west about twenty-five Milos to our: summer retreat, near the village of Potter's Hot. low, Albany , county, in the loyal State of New lock. liere pure mountain- air, sparkling spring water, rich milk, cream And- butter-milk, excellent. bread and butter; mountain mutton, with shun dance of native berries and.ifresh fruit, Constitute a stilatantial basis for recreation in the true.sense of the term. The mountain - sidei are traversed hero andthere by ravines through which,. after a rain, numerous musical and fantastic water falls come rushing down to-the creek. This stream is, a perpetual source of enjoyment to the juveniles, not only in the item of bathing, but In the oonsirric tion of miniature water powers, and in tho search for fossils, for which the Catekill red sand stone is famous, and in the occasional though rather unsuc cessful sport of fishing. The trout streams here away are once in several years almost dried up by excessive droughts, one of which we have had this season. These splendid fairtlien readily fall a prey to depredators, who do not oven leave enough to. keep up the stook. Our enjoyments here are wholly untrammelled by the rules of fashionable life;.the ladies of our party, duringtheis long morning walks, go unencumbered with hoops or long skirts, and In• what they have named wood-dresses (gymnasium dresses), they readily clamber up the mountain sides, or pick their way..romong the stoneaiti the. bed of the creek, with a display of grace and agility quite impossible in the- ordinary too.cumbersorae dress of their sex. Our pie-nie excursions eonstl6- tate a leading feature. Within convenient riding distance are magnificent elevations, from which these glorious mountain ridges, extending . forty miles in breadth, are Been In deeply shaded perspec tive. Truly, nothing is so elevating to the mind awakened to nature's- beauties, as the contemphr tion of these grand old hills, "rook ribbed and. an cient as the sun ;" and probably no place affords a better view of them than this vicinity. In contrast to the mountains, covered with their prime - sal rests, are the many, peaceful valleys, 'clothed in live] green, here and there happily contrasted with the brown earth freshly turned over for the recep tion Of the winter 'rye, while the buckwheat appears in patches of silvery white over the vrwtiegated landscape. .Agriculture, though restricted In this district by the shortness of the season, is far more. productive thaA dwellers in the low lands of our more' south ern country might suppose. Itye,oats, barley, ilex, and buckwheat are largely cultivated here ; gra sing is, however, the chief dependence of the farmer, and better the chief product. It is of fine quality, and is sent in firkins to Now York, where it commands, this season, sixty cents per pound by the firkin. Apples and plums , are the principal fruits, and we questldn whether a basket of peaches has been seen In this township this year ; and yet, Philadelphians are actually living here and fatten ing, forgetful of the peaches which abound amid the intense heat anti murky atmosphere of their homes, 'The politics of this and We adjoining counties is, I-fear, hopelessly "Democratic,l , though it is to be . hoped that few of thesehonestpeople would endorse the sentiment of one of the "oldest inhabitants," who stated on the.atagethat he would rather vote at the coming election for Jeff Davie than for " Old Abe." That some attribute the late drought to oar respected President may account for their proclivities, for their morn crop Is almost a failure, their potatoes email and few In a hill, their oats very short, and their hay not enough. for next win,. .terleleed for Wei; orittere. Noir, who can wonder that, with all this and the heavy taxes to pay, they want a change of Administration 4 One thing they sadly lack—the newspaper. Not a NeW York city newspaper, and only one or two from.Albony, have I seen about the taverns or stores I have been in ; none are for sale in the villages, and, es a necessary consequence, the people are sadly behind the times. TO this, of course, I roust make 80133 e very notable exceptions. Rare, as everywhere, there Is ten intel ligent class, composed of those who industriously keep up with the events of the day; who road the best periodicals, and make their social and business intercourse tributary to their advancement and cal. tura. Among such the writer of this has had the good fortune to sojourn in these mountain retreats, and so he has managed to keep out of the way of that obnoxious species of serpent, the sting of which has been so potent in its'poisonous effects upon the body politic. The Wounded Colored Soldiers and the Passenger tars. To the Editor of The Press: Sin: There are now in the Summit Howe Hospital, West Philadelphia, about six miles from the city, a very large number of colored millions wounded in the sanguinary battles before Peters burg. These men displayed great courage and bravery, and hundreds of their associates lost their lives in the desperate struggle, while endeavoring to sustain the Federal Government. They have been sent here, and it is naturally to be supposed that their wives, ohlldren, friends, and relatives, are anxious to see them, administer to their wants, and alleviate their suffering as much as they possibly can ; but in a large number of cases they find it utterly impossible to do so, being unable to afford a pri;ate conveyance at an expense of six or seven dollars, the city passenger oars re fusing to carry colored persons except on the front platform, a position every woman should refuse to occupy who has self-respect, Women, aged per- Sons, and others in delicate health, are unable to walk so great a distance. I would say, however, some few of our female friends did, a few days, wall[ there and back. We have in this city three societies of ladies foil the relief of the sick and wounded soldiers, viz: The Ladies> Sanitary Society of St: Thomas> Epis copal Church, atlitiliary to the United States Sant tary Society, the Union Relief Association, and the Soldiers' Friend Society. Those ladies, whenever they desire to visit their brethren at the hospitals, either to minister, to their wants or attend them when dying, aro constrained to pay for carriage hire, thus expending teensy that would be other. wise appropriated to the foldlers were they per milted to ride in the cars. The other day a few friends purchased one hun dred watesanelons, several baskets of peaches, can telopes, etc., for the soldiers, but, like all the others, had to go in private cor.veyanoe. Now we do think this is a great outrage, not only upon us but upon the men wbo, regardless of the prejudice they have always encountered in this the ]and of their birth, have at the call of their country rushed forth to aid in putting down the rebellion, and now they are wounded, many disabled for life, aredeprived of seeing those dear to them, beeaiise the directors of the city passenger cars retueartO let adored people ride, which, to say the 'toast, is a 'stigma upon the city of Philadelphia. • We do hope it will not be long before this distinction will be re moved. _ 7 .0 , B. A Speech by Geri. Bari:wide. • • • n: e • . . :•:' i• • • •: CENTRZ HARBOR, N. H., August 80.—General Burnside arrived last night at this place, from the White Mountains, on his way to resume his com mand. His arrival speedily , becoming known, a large number of Citizens and neighbors assembled, and Belknap's Cornet Band serenaded the General, who.responded as follows : MY Fnuterns lam sure you will excuse me from Making sty extended remarks on this occasion tie' cause It is not my habit to address public assemb lies. I am returning from a brief trip, during which I have purposely enjoyed recreation. It will not be amiss, however, for me to say that I have the fullest confidence In th ei ability of the Government to crush out this wicked rebellion. I feel that the day is not far distant when despondency will totally disappear, and the people of the North will see, as we in the field see, that the end is at hand- Only one united effort is needed to enable the Government to move still more quickly. I refer to this, because I have lately witnessed despondency, and been surprised at it. I have beard more grumbling at the North in three days than I have heard in one campaign from the Ra pidan to Petersburg. The people seem to think our armies are Wearing out w ithout any correspond ing exhaustion to the enemy. This is a mistake. Our resources in the field are greater than his. We have three times his resources untouched, and can lose far more than the South and. still break down the rebellion. I repeat there is no cause for despondency. Let every citizen do all in his power and this result is sure. It is not possible that any came do founded in iniquity as the rebellion should succeed ; but Independent of right and wrong, I am sure that we have the strength and will to conquer.

Prisoners at Charleston. The Hilton Hoed eorrespondont of the New York Mars gives t he fallowing account of an affair whietr was referred to in• our telegraphic columns yester day: • The steamer G"raseent, Capt. D. Latham, ha ting onboard six inandred rebel prisoners to be pl aced under fire, arrived at this port yes&erday morning. Immediately on landing, Capt. li. Mentisis, fn coca-. wand :of the gnardi. reported to Gen. Foster his suspicions Man attearpt ea the partof Wm. Baxter, the second mato of Ohs vessel, to run her ashore at Cope Roman, with a Mew of allowing tho prisoners to escape. 'The Crescent , left Fort Delaware last gap turoay, under convoy of the naval supplysteanier Ad miral. When oil Cape litiunan, it is alleged, the Ore. scent forsook Tier course and made a direct line for tho shore. The 'mate wart. In charge of the steamer at the time; the captain having gone to his berth. When the Admiral Saw the Crescent'maklng Inland she showed lights aral , seat up reckett, of which the • mate took no notice, although he wa.s informed that signals were being made. The Crescent rarreground at nearly low tide, consequently - at high water she was - enabled to get afloat. While the vessel was ashore It la reported that one of prisonent,LteUt col; Woodford, jumped overboard and escaped by swimming, although thecaptain of the guard suspects' that ho Is concealedron board the vestal. Roth'the captain and mato were arrested, and the latter was pit in Irons by order or Oen. Foster. IL .Is thought 0:let the rebel officers bribed the mate to run the steamer ashore, - but as to that matter as wel I sa other matters attending the whole affair we shall be better informed when the board of Inquiry about to be • Convened shall have made their report.. At present the subject:ls too delicate to warrant speou latton, and I am unwillifig that the parties underar rett should'be made to bear the burden ol' an unfa vorable .'.opinforr., until • the facto of the case are proven-against them. As to the guard, they, were ready AO a maul.° do their duty to-the fullest extent. A striftieye Was kept en the mate, and preparations n ere made to shootthe drat rebel who should attempt to escape. The guard was compose& jprlnoipally, of the 157th 'Ohio Regiment,' hundred-days men, and volunteered • their services on, the the Geis OM, their time of enlistment having expired on the 22d inst. The Admiral signalled to a gunboat in the vicinity, which gunboat ran up as near , the thiecent as passible, in Order tcprepel any attack that the rebels might make from the shore. Fortu nately for the rebels no.hoatile demonstrations were .made. One of the prisoners haS since stated that if the vessel had remained aground as hour or two longer, a considerable force of cavalry would have come down to assist the prisoners ia escaping. The prisoners. are all officers, ranking from colonel downward. A number of them have signified their desire to take the oath.of allegiance. 13NION PRISONERS AT 011ASILESTON fieneral Pain Jones, on being notified by General 1 - 'osier of his Intention to place the 600 on Morris Island, replied that such a course would not excel& rate or impede the action designed, by the rebel an. thoritles with reference to the Union month Charles ton. General Jones declared to General Wessels acid others that the prisoners In Charleston were to 'be considered simply in rritmitu, and he has since Stated that when a proper. place can be prepared away from the city, the, prisoners shall be taken thither.

I can tell them, sad all who are in terested 'in thelfwelfare, that Gen. Foster, so far so be is concerned, will not listen to their etchange as long as our men are confined In Charleston. .Betore this letter reaches its destination, the rebel prisoners will be under rebel fire on Morrie Island. How long they will remain there depends wholly upon the course of the rebel authorities in regard to our men in Charleston. T}llf 111018L8 Armors 11 . 02 BXOECANGE. It hag been said with truth:that the rebel atitbori tiea at liiehmend are exceedingly.anidous for an ex change of prisoners. In order to bring about an ex change, .they do not hesitate to resort to the most Inhuman measures. They are impressed with the idea that the more cruelty they visit upon our sob diers the more likely are they to succeed in accent plishing the desired result. Hence Union prisoners are subjected to the, utmost severity in all things. They are robbed oflolaribits and clothing, and a brute stands over them to. shoot down the first man who dares offer a syllable In remonstrance. The following statements, written by Union prisoners, :some of them lately within rebel lines, and some still confined at Andersanville, tell their own story: Minutes of a Meeting , of the Sergeants Commanding Detachments of Prisoners at Andersonvitte, Ga.: At a meeting of tha sergeants in charge of the va.. none detachments of divisions confined at Ander , sonville, Ga., he for the purpose of taking some notion to properly represent the. present condition. of the prisoners to. our Government at .

That there are now confined In this prison front 26,000 to 30,000 men, with daily accessions of hun dreds, and that the mortal ty aniong them, generated by various causes, such as change of climate, diet, and want of proper exercise, is becoming truly frightful to contemplate, and Is rapidly increasing in virulence, decimating their ranks by hundreds 'Weekly. 8. in view of tie foregoing facts, we, your peti tioners, most earnestly-yet !respectfully pray that some action be Immediately taken to effect our. speedy release, either on parole or by exohango, the dictates; both of humanity and justice demanding ft on the part of our Government. 4.

Of even more Interest fa:maths repulse of General Grant is the invasion of Maryland and Pennsyl vania by the Confederates. The success of the last raid was N complete that it is natural it should suggest another. The Confederates In the present year have not attempted any such - enterprise as. those which failed- In 1862 abd 1863. They do not throw their Whole force under their chief general across the frontier, with the intention of bringing the war to a close by some splendid victory. They know their enemy's strength and their own weakness too well (or that. Their object during the present campaign has been to distract and harass the North, to carry off stores tor the use of their armies, and to encourage them by showing that they are not necessarily confined to the defensive. In the present Invasion the purpose La probably again something of this kind ; but the invasion is certainly on a more formidable scale. The force under the Confederate generals amounts to 86,000 or 40,000 men. One division, acting in accordance with the lamentable precedents which the Federals have set on former occasions, has burnt the town of Chambersburg, and the main body are reported to, be advancing, not, as before, in the direction of; Baltimore or Washington, but towards the. northwest,twith the Intention, it appears, of capturing the important city of Pitts burg. This achievement would no doubt startle the Northern States, and would effectually raise the s pennsylvania 'militia, whom the. State Gro. vernor exhorts ..and rebukes with so little effect. Yet it is not a difficult enterpriite, as Pittsburg can not be more than seventy or eighty miles from the ioint which the Confederates had reached accord ng to the last advices. They are numerous, well trained, probably well supplied, and they are com mended by leaders who have shown their courage and promptitude In many former adventures. There probably exists no regular force to oppose them, and they will have to do only with the Pennsylva nia militia. It may be that in a few days we shall have the news of some more andaolons achievement than has jet distinguished the war.

DEATH n w DIVING APPLUIATIIS.—AII inquest was held on board her Majesty's ship St. George, at Falmouth, on Saturday afternoon, on the body of Samuel Warren, aged 24, a seaman and diver belonging to that ship, who was suffocated on Friday afternoon while diving in Falmouth, harbor. The deceased had previously been a diver on board her Majesty's ship, Cambridge. He Went down from a boat between two and three o'clock on Friday , afternoon in 183,4 fathoms of water, at the spot where the St. George is lying, for the :purpose of recovering a set of boat s crutches that had been lost from the St. George. He selected his own attendants for the occa sion from the ship's company, and arranged with them the signals, which were to be "one pull lass air," "two pulls more air," "three pulls to come sp." About half a minute after he was down he signalled for more air, and more was primped down. 'arren then walked about one fathom and a half, there being about fifteen fathoms and a half air pipes out, when he signalled jo come ttp,..ll2 . palllag an ,out lie had neon about InbUtAte down, and the boat's Crew were . about two minutes in pulling him up. The mouthpiece of the dress was taken off before he was • taken into the boat, and he put his right band across his month. The diving dress was mediately taken off, and Warren was carried on board the St. George ; hie face, ears. nostrils, and helmet were eavered with blood. He did not speak, but gave a convulsive struggle, and died just before he was got on board. The diving dress was a new one, whieh the deceased bad borrowed from the Fa, month Dock Company. It was found , oy eXamin. Hon that the air.plpo had burst 'about nine fathoms from the helmet and that the valve for the out let of the foul air was fastened. This had ocea skated an extra pressure on the tube, and hence the accident Means were resorted to for mote than an hour to restore the deceased, but without any appa rent result. The jury returned a verdict "That de. ceased .was suffocated by over-pressure of air while diving, in consequence of the escape valve of. the diving apparatus being set, and that no blame at tached to any one except the deceased himself."— Western Morning News. - late from Jrkekocio, A GENBRAI;OALL TO Ail®.

Abraham Lincoln has consented to retire from the field as a cam , diddle for re-election. A number of the Chase or Radical Republicans have been here a day or two, endeavoring to operate upon this Convention. Sena tor Pomeroy, of Kansas, has figured prominently in this movement. Last evening Senator Sprague, of Rhode Island, arrived from Washington, and brought the intelligence that Old Abe bad oonaented to de cline. He brought the official document as proof of that decision, or agreement, on the part of Lincoln. The whole p arty, with Sprague, left for Joliet, 111., this morning, to consult.

Various reasons, po litiml and military, are,. assigned for this decline, btrt - the powerful reason.' appears to be , financial" one. The export of gold has fallen. to , merely nominal amount, rod while the eaporta have been steadily increasing the Imports have. decllnod, point lag to a_ protracted reduction, of the exports of specie. At the awe time, the ,payment of interest on the September and November bonds is supplying Sufficient for the requirements of the customs duties. For the time, therefore, there is con siderable surplus of gold over the demand, and the price naturally declines.. With the prospect of this condition of the market being more or less protracted, It is quite possible that a further decline may be realized ; and ahould any important military suc cess be achieved, the probability would be greatly strengthened. Political reasons are also assigned for the fall in gold, but in these we do not think much reliance can be plaoed. It is believed that an effort is about being made In New York to lower the gold quotations on the announcement of the Chi cago nomination. If it should meet with success, one staple for political oratory will be manufactured with effect in the coming campaign against the Government.

The three days' later news from Europe by the New York, Bremen steamer, advises a continued i large business on the Continent in 5-20 United States bonds, but lower figures, owing to a pressing supply for the moment. The /omit% flaws , cientinues 118 surprise at the course of the Hutch and Germans in buying up our stocks, and buying the more freely as the price goes down ; but the illibeitd money writer for that journal acknowledges that the de mand goes on without abatement. The lowest quo tation for 6-20 s from abroad to-day, and the unset tled market for exchange for the Boston mail, caused the price to recede to 1116;4.10X cent. The main difficulty for the present market is in placing bills on London at anything like steady or satis factory rates.. The import trade, in plane of being encouraged to remit freely on the heavy decline of 20 lq cont. in gold In less than a fortnight, are rather holding off for still lower figures. The job bing trade, from the same feeling, are limiting their present purchases of foreign - merchandise from the importers.

The parcels brought to London by the weekly steamers and transmitted to FrailrJort are absorbed as fast as they arrive, at prim; which yield a good profit to the importerS. Each successive fall seems to be regarded by the existing holders almost with gratification, instead of dismay, since they apparently entertain no doubter ultimate payment in full, and consequently consider that each decline simply enables them to Increase their acquisition of securities forced off by the Ame ricana at a tremendous sacrifice from the momentary pressure of. circumstances.

The instance of the State of New York refosing to continue the payment of its dividends in specie was alarming but as such payments at the, time of the creation of the debt were not, perhaps, actually. stipulated, but merely implied, the measure did not constitute as open violation of 'definite contracts.
