Vrtss. MONDAY, JUNE 26, 1865. Summer Tours. Opinions vary, of course, as much about Summer enjoyments as they do upon other subjects. People who have fled from the tedium of their own selves all winter, fly from one watering-place to another all Summer, completing the ceaseless round of dissipation. Some find in the democratic gathering of the seaside "hop," or the crowd at the " Springs," a gayety which - they are denied elsewhere. There are many, on the other hand, that feel forced into these known resorts, from inability to find, or leisure to seek, more congenial "Spots. • To such as really require rest and re freshment, who have lived in the push and throng of the street and exchange till over taxed and flagging health demand quiet and repose, we would say, avoid "re sorts-" They, of course, offer a "change," and benefit may be derived ; but the ad vantage gained is too much, as an attack of genuine fever alters a state of torpid semi health into an after invigoration. The re sult may be very fortunate, but One would rather gain the benefit without undergoing the disease. Under present arrangements it is diffi cult to find solitude by the seashore. It is one of the dreams of the poet, never to be realized by the ordinary mortal, inhabitant of cities ; and " the music of its roar" -we et sounds. What a relief it would be if the bane. could be prevailed upon to do something else than " dis course," or if the reportc.-- void allow them to merely play occasionally! It was a pod word once, but if SHARSPHAtiII were a reader of the current news, he would be one of the first to agree that it is "over- 'worn." The grand, the free, the open sea? has a magic power beyond all that has been ever said or sung in its praise. It possesses such revivifying power that we do not wonder at the belief that all life ori ginally sprung from its bosom. Its fresh breezes bear healing on their wings, and haven potency to waft all " cobwebs from the brain," and recreate it into the fitting tenement of strong thoughts and fair, sweet fancies. When ocean's happy influences can be enjoyed without the turmoil and tumult of fashion, it is the grandest of recuperative powers. Fortunately, our railway connec tions place those three great watering places—Atlantic City, Cape May, and Long Branch—within the easy reach of all. There are chance spots along our Atlantic coast, too, where quiet can be found, and they will prove well worth the search. liter us, on the shore of New Jersey, there are small and modest houses, standing near the sea, where that greatest of all charms— a beautiful greensward and fair fields stretching down to the edge of a bluff, be neath which a narrow belt of sandy shore is for hours of the day in shade ; where, sheltered from the fierce rays, the ocean lover can gaze in comfort and ease out over the dancing sunlit waves. And the seda tive pleasures of life at the seaside can be Varied at will by walks and drives through a fertile country. There are so many beautiful places of sum mer resort within the boundaries of Penn sylvania, on mountain tops and in deep-set gorges, by cool springs and fair streamlets, that the Water Gap, Bedford, and Cresson, with all their acknowledged attractions, are merely types of the wondrous variety of landscape in the Keystone State_ The peaceful shores of the 'Susquehanna and Juniata have fair and lovely scenes. Nearer still, Northampton and Carbon counties contain much to satisfy the lover of the picturesque ; the hills rise in beauty around Bethlehem, and hi glory around Mauch Chunk, while in the long line of mountain counties—Fayette, Centre, and many an other—there are deep defiles and grand eminences hardly known beyond the tisane of the districts they adorn. Places that are out of the line of travel, which can only be reached by lumbering Stages, or, harder still, on horseback, escape the notice of our tourists, who offer them selves up as willing victims to the mosqui toes of the Adirondack*, and persist in the search of the unknown along the old sys tematized track by which explorers have been looking for it for years. For there is a fashionable way of being wild and 'adven turous, and even a regular settled method of going a gypsling. To the sincere lover of Naturewe would Bay, you need not seek her among the forests of Maine or the hills of New Hemp thire. If you crave wild travel and adven ture, acquaint yourself first with the length and breadth of your own State. This is the day of great things, and many an American tourist ventures abroad to Bee and examine the famous acenes.of the Old World, with an en totally uneducated for the beautiful and sublime in Nature. He leaves behind him wondrous water falls, gigantic forests, lofty mountains, the glory of an American autumn, grand livers, or that most wonderful of all scenes, Where Nature groups her grandest objects and brings mountain and ocean into one surpassing picture. Europe contains these in their smaller type, but the American who has neglected the study of the majestic forms at home is unable to institute the Comparison. This, in a lesser degree, is the fault of those who employ their summer leisure in Visiting the well•known wildernesses while neglecting the romantic and picturesque near at hand. Pennsylvania has grand forests to be explored that have never been seen except by the woodsnaan, and eaves whose existence is yet hardly more than conjectural, while the lovely transparent mountain brooklets are peopled with the pretty trout ; and the angler who seeks their abodes will find many a nook'worthy of admiration, and many a scene to adorn the portfolio of an artist. THE PRESSES which denounce the Mili tary Commission are utterly oblivious to the national necessities Which authorize, require, and justify the organization of such a tribunal ; and they forget, too, that many of the treasonable criminals who have been tried and condemned in the North during the war, have belonged to real—not fancied star-chamber" tribunals. The secret Councils of the Knights of the Golden Circle have, in truth, partaken of the cha racteristics which are unjustly and falsely ascribed to the bodies which have detected and punished their guilt. These allies of rebellion have condemned, without notice Bud 'without hearing, men whose only Crime was fidelity to the Republic. They have issued decrees for assassinations, and selected villainous executioners, without any warrant or color of law, but in defiance Of all laws, human and divine. They have been at once traitors, spies, and murderers, and have yielded a blind and implicit obe dience to an oath-bound conspiracy, which endeavored—fortunately in vain—to veil all its infamous operations in impenetrable Secrecy, and to send its shafts quivering Into the hearts of its victims without a note of warning or an intimation of danger. Tan Promosornaas of France who plead for human rights in the last century, and urged that the downtrodden and oppressed peasantry were made in the image of their Creator and endowed with "certain in alienable rights," encountered prejudices as stubborn and convictions as strong as those which are entertained by a portion of the American people against the colored race. But the degradation and incapacity which serfdom produces is no argument for its perpetuation. • On the contrary, it is the very strongest reason that can be urged for giving every man "a fair chance in life," so that his natural gifts may be improved, and the true ends and aims m hisprisem served. is_• soul, to shut out -toe light of knowledge, confine al aspirations for progress by the narrow bar riers of an isolated plantation, and !Aunt all the natural affections. If any infernal power were to permanently impose upon the free people of the North the restrictions which have heretofore controlled the slaves of the South, all their present intelligence, power, and prosperity would speedily be obliterated, and in a few generations they would relapse into as hopeless and depraved a condition as the serfs of European feudal ism. We trust the reverse of the proposi tion is also true, and that freedom will do as much to elevate the negro.as slavery would to degrade the white man. THE umnakrrOX appointed by the Board of Trade to attend the approaching Com mercial Convention at Detroit, will doubt less embrace that opportunity to impress upon the merchants of the Northwest the superior advantages which Philadelphia now possesses as an outlet for their pro ducts. We lost our old pre-eminence through the superior energy of New York in constructing the Erie canal, and virtually monopolizing the Lake trade. Now, since we have unbroken freight lines running to Chicago and St. Louis ; a grain elevator for economical storage, delivery, and foreign export ; a direct line of steamships to Liverpool; and a magnificent railway connection with Lake Brie, new life and spirit should be infused into our capitalists and merchants, and they should strive to rcnder - our fair city as useful and busy in foreign and internal commerce as she is in manufactures. LETTER FROM OCCASIONAL." WASHINGTON, June 24, 1.865". riain faerdiadiifek 4 4BRIXed4KX Tuesday, the 4th of July next, ought to be bailed with universal and grateful joy. Four of the darkest days in American his tory were the four anniversaries of 1801, 'O2, 'GB and '64, although that of 1863 brightened about mid-day by the double geed news of Vicksburg and of Gettysburg. But the coming Fourth should be made a holiday in every corner of the land. On many occasions we have celebrated vie tories, but this is the only time we have yet commemorated, in a national sense, the' utter downfall of the insurrection and the complete triumph of the 'Union—not the downfall alone, but the destruction of slavery—and not simply the triumph, but the complete, overwhelming, and eternal salvation of our civil and political liberties. Now that our several armies have nearly all been returned to their respective homes, there is a fitness in giving to those who have composed these conquering columns an honorable and a substantial greeting. It is, therefore, a cheering thing to know that all the loyal neighborhoods are preparing to show their gratitude to these noble and self-sacrificing patriots. Although much has been done to alleviate their sufferings and to promote their comfort in days that have gone by ; although millions have been collected and expended to support their families during their absence, and to take care of the orphans of those who have fallen, there remains a precious and a plea sant duty—a duty not to be discharged in parades, or processions, or music, or bonfires, or speeches, but that which is practically manifested in the wel comes of home, in the gatherings of neighborhoods, and in those sweet and inexpressible recognitions between peck, ple of the same age, long separated by the events of war. Thus may a national sen timent and supreme gratitude - be embodied and vitalized and associated, with perma nent 'benefits to those who have so well earned them ; for it should be remembered that what we owe to our great soldiers does not end with their return to civil life. The wounded, the maimed, the mutilated, the bereaved families, are now, and will con tinue to be for years, the objects of our most constant and most liberal care ; while to those who come back uninjured we must turn with grateful hearts, giving to them those posts which they so nobly deserve. Bence, I am glad to perceive that in the State of Ohio, one of the not brilliant civit3ans—who proved himself to be a moat' gallant soldier—has been placed in nomination by the Union party as its candidate for Governor. We cannot too frequently, by examples like this, show that our professions of regard for the soldiers have not been mere profds sions—that we are not a party of words but of works. Whenever a Union convention assembles, and a brave soldier, especially if he has been leounded in fighting for the old flag, is named as a candidate, and he is Qual2fitylby intelligence and good deportment, he should be preferred to all others, and wherever a vacancy occurs in a public office, ,or wherever a new appointment is to be made, if fit soldiers can be obtained they should be honored with a confidence, which is, at the same time, a substantial recognition of their bravery. The Union men throughout Pennsylvania, and the Union men in other States, I note with great joy, are acting upon what is the spontaneous wish of the people, and should therefore secure the prompt action of the politicians.

The pastures are luxuriant. and the Una revel In a perfect wealth of food. Butter is sold at twenty cents per pound generally, and the supply heat fall will be unusa ally heavy. Corn looks fine, but hoeing is rather baokward, considering that the haying season is on. Fai men are cutting their clover this year In the how er, as recommended by the best agricultural au thorities. Fruit in New Hampshire and Blaine will yield emir crop—probably not a heavy one. There are to canker worms in the orchards. Cattle are la One or neitiOn. There will be a great 'number of young cattle kept this year, Owing to the abundance a hay.

If It be well that man should know himself, it is equally so that our citizens should know Philac elphia. There are hundreds of thousands of our residents who know no more about the city in which they live than miners in the coal regions of the Interior, who delve in darkness the best portion of their days. It purely oharacterletio of Philadelphians scarce. ly to Isnow their moat-door neighbor, although in some localities, however, people seem to know more about, their neighbor's business than they do of their own. In other sections—the city in this particular can be subdivided by sections— Menes of the people are morally social, and, there fore,_ agreeable. They live to make life happy. They cheer each other onward in the great drama of existence, in which mankind make the actors and actresses. The entire city, made up of the good and the bad, is decidedly an Interesting institution, and, as snob, deserves respectful consideration. In order to become acquainted with its beautiful churches, its extensive mills and manufactories, its elegant private residences, its vast docks, its di verging and converging of railway tracks, its scenes of industry, its splendid flower gardens. Its pleasant drives, its rural resorts, gently sloping hills, shady groves, Its craggy bluffs, its graceful vales, luxurious woodlands, placid streams, and the purling dash of its waterfalls, and the many plea sant pictures presented in the dress of summer, the student should avail himself Of a few rides In the local passenger oars. These popular palatal run on time, and generally ", make it." In case of fire, however, they generally do not make it, as the fire. men seem to have the wonderful peculiarity of plaeleg their steamers in such positions as to stop the tide of travel, while they flow another kind of tide upon' the conflagration, perhaps of a shingle or a curtain, a roof or a building, as the case may be, Of late, however, there hes been an evident desire manifested by the great body of are men to obstruct the track as little as possible, for syllich they are entitled to the thanks of the travel ling public. As a general thing, fires are not very frequent, and, therefore, a trip may be taken in the oars of any of the roads. with some degree of cer tainty of reaching the place of destination in a given time. Our object Is to present what may be considered a readable map of the many attractive Moalmes of the great city of Philadelphia, as seen from the cars on Its railways. With this Idea in view, we stepped into one of the new cars of the UNION salmi's' at the Navy Yard, located on the Delaware, in the eastern part of the Second ward. The cars remain but a few minutes on Front street, below Federal, and then proceed down Front to Wharton, thence to Ninth Street. The first object of importance that strikes the eye is the Wharton Market and two parka, in the centre of MOS'olooDOthlt avenue, a wide thoroughfare. These parks are pOOrly shaded with ornamental trees, aro not enclosed even with an ordinary railing, and may, to all intents and purposes, be considered "commons," whereon " Young America" often pursues the national game of "base.ball," or passes away time in pitching quoits. PRESBYTIIP.VM OHURCB The paillailDger will also Obtain a pasting sight of the Presbyterian Church on Third street, within a stone's throw of the track. This ,6 temple i wor ship', makes nO pretensions to handsome architec ture. It was ended nearly twenty years eines, at a time when that part of Third street was simply a country road. The people generally in that sec tion subscribed to the fund for the erection of the building. Its site at that time was a portion of what was known as the Wharton lot (a popular error), whereon "Fourth of July oelebrationen co' ourred In years long gone by. This lot was then owned by the Queen of Spain; but it has changed hands, THE EOM ON THE HILL. A short distance south of this point, as the oar crosses the wide Moyamonsing avenue, the passen ger will observe a yellow house, the foundation of which is five or six feet above the grading of the street. This building was erected more than a oen• fury ago, and in former years had an observatory on top, and was used for school purposes. It stood isolated, and was regarded by superstitions people as a haunted place. Strange sights were seen, strange sounds were heard; Sometimes a scream, then a hurrah, then soft, flate.like MOM, and at other times the notes Of harmony were shrill as the clarionet, Residents Of the " neck" gave the place a wide berth while on the way to market. The stride of civilization has made rapid progress here, and ghost stories have long since been forgotten. There are probably very few of the residents of that section who ever dreamed of living and sleeping in a part of the city once the abode of ghouls. But all around houses have been erected, and flute music, the hurrah of. some jubilant party, have ceased to awaken a solitary echo at the houses on the 1411. At one time this house formed seven echoes, from as many different loeations, Whin tin questionably gave rise to the phantom stories. In the Southwark riots of 1844 quite a number of the leaden balls bred by the military down Third street were flattened against its northern wail. THE WHARTON a TEIBILT CHURCH. The car passes directly in front of the Wharton street Methodist Episcopal Omni, a fine, substart• tial building of pressed brisk. The Wharton lot was yet in its primeval condition when the corner. stone was laid. The building was erected in the year 1845, we believe, and it was just enclosed in early spring. The D window at the south gableend was left open, which little feet came very near facilitating the destruction of the entire edifice. Suddenly, on a warm April afternoon, there came up a gust, accompanied with thunder, lightning, end hall. A whirlwind started—seemingly in the centre of a large field of elover—half a mile south- West of the church. The whirlwind Seemed to verge in two lines, one to the eastward% whleh did no damage, and the other to the nertheast. This vein of the contending elements struck the church, and, in less time than it takes to write about it, tre roof was carried to a distance of seventy yards, where it fell into a shapeless mass of broken beams and shivered shingles. The upper part of the gable wall was forced inward, and, in its resistless descent, smashed a part of the interior work into ruins. A. curious incident occurred during this tremen dous wind. A. little girl was hastening along the roadway, when the wind lifted her bodily and abso lutely carried her to a place of safety. Bat for this it was thought that she would have been ormhed beneath some portions Of the roof. The brethren of the church assembled next morning, and, with the Writ of true Yankee enterprise, arranged to clear away the rubbish, and in a short time the building was cOmPleted, and it now stand's amid large num bora of pretty, comfortable dwelling-houses as a monitor pointing heavenward. It has a neat iron railing in front, and a small stare -yard in the rear. aaw rRESETTBRIAN CHI7IIOB. at the corner of Plinth and Wharton streets a beautlinl sandstone church attracts attention. In general style It may be considered at least Mat+ 14-uticlo—more In accordance with the French style than anything else. It stands, as yet, isolated, but there is evidence of great private improvements going ahead, so that in a few years that locality WIU be built, up solidly. =EI The oar gracefully turns from Wharton street up Ninth, so that two clear front views of this church can be obtained.

At the intersection of Ninth and Ellsworth streets, In the burned district, the passenger will find a oar of this line ready, every few minutes, to proem:id di rectly to the Baltimore depot, at Broad street and Washington avenue. This is a great acmomMedle- Um to the traveller. UONALDBON'S OBBISTERT. The next place of general interest that falls upon the observant eye, is Ronaldsotes Cemetery, extend ing west from Ninth Street, from Fitzwater to Ship. pen street. Mr, Ronaldeon was a wealthy Septa gentleman who lived in that part of the city many years since. Be dedicated that ground forever for burial purposes. It is now pretty well nlled, and, like cemeteries generally, is handsomely adorned with floral bowers; while birds of every plume poles upon their wings or nestle In thebranohes. It seems, at We time of the year, that the dead are sleeping among fragrant roses, thus stripping the grave of many of Its visionary horrors. PRIM HOSPITAL. Bat little need be laid of thls institution, became , little of it only can be seen as we pass on our up ward course on the track. Extending from Pine to Spruce street, on the east side of Ninth, is a long blank wall, made of brick, that carries us beak to the lest century. Its long rows of black header/t i n bespeak its venerated age. Its tall sycamores spread their huge branches at a towering height, where they have waved In many a delightful breeze, and resisted the storms of a century. The large lot extending from Lombard to Pine, on the east side, down to Eighth street, was, until within a few years, a grazing ground for the cattle belonging to the hospital. It was then enolothd in a paling fence, painted white. It contained a number of noble trees, that were not spared by the woodman's axe. This lot contains some of the finest private man done in our city. antenna' Xleartan In an onoloeure formed by a brick wallet Ninth and a r um streeth stands it plata brick betiding, ' where the Society of Friends meat for religious wor— ship.

Before the rebellion distracted the inhabitants of the land, each of the graduating classes of this great institution numbered over three hundred. The graduates represented every state In the Union. The institution is in a flourishing condition, and now that the national strife IN over, it will probably increase in its usefulness. As we pass along, the Watuutstreet Theatre, orL ginally built for Blears. Pepin a Breekard, circus managers, now being modernized, appears in the moving panorama; next, that immense arehlteotu ral pile of strength and beauty, the Continental— opposite width are the magnificent marbled stores of the Bard estate, and the gmcefullooking Girard House—and then, to the left, above Chestnnt street, we behold the stately forms of buildings recessing some forty or fifty feet from the line of the street, and recognize in them the Unfeersify of Pennsylva nia, the oldest medical institute in the PAM*. Per. suing a northward course, all solidly built up with stores and dwellings, we reach Spring Garden street, and turn to the west. Tide is a wide , thoroughfare, and remarkable and interesting for its handseme edifices, public buildings, churches, and fine western perspeotive view. Passing by several sections of market.honses, we behold to the right, near Twelfth street, the doubled tower Church of the Assumption of the Catholic sect. This building has a browtesatdstone front, and presents a cam• mending appearance. Its towers are on the front, and upped with the emblem of Christianity. This section of the city is really handsome. The wile brated IS one of the most beautiful public buildings In Philadelphia. It was erected by the Native Amer!• can party, and it may well be considered a hand some monument to the energy and taste of that shorblived, though active political organltatien. At present the coaling of mastic has peeled off in many, places, and this fact will not favorably tem press the spectator in regard to the powers that be, for permitting so handsome a building to remain In snob a scaly condition. The steeple which Our. mounts this edifice is high, and from it a fine view of all Philadelphia can be had. The tone of the elock-bell here is very shutter in sound to that at Independence Hall. The first stcryof the AMC tore Is used as the office of the Spring Garden Gas works, and for police purposes. On the opposite side of Spring Garden street we behold the T. hihnuts =THEBAN 0111111011. It Is erected of brown sandstone, and hail a very tall and slender, though substantially-built steeple. The church has been built without regard to ex. pease, and It may be truly said to be one` of the handsomest temples dedicated to religions worship In the city of Philadelphia. We may also statethat on this section of the street, In the centre thereat - , there le a splendid park, with monuments 0( 90.1 sheikh fountains statuary. gramlilOtS, all sur rounded with an ornate Iron railing. < MS Improve ment was made by private subscription, and It really serves the purposes of a well-eultivated font garden, to all the splendid private mansions on both sides of the square.

At the Intersection of Broad street there are two large buildings, one the Spring Garden Institute, the ether Broadway Hall, where a considerable num ber of Odd Fellows' lodges assemble. This tact is made known by the algnificant lettere r. 0. of 0. F. standing out in bold relief above the base line of the eves. The institute on the oppesite corner is attrac tive for his handsome proportions. While admiring Its beauty, the eye will voluntarily lest upon a splendid pile of architecture a short dlatance to the north and fronting on Broad street, and this will be recognized at once as the Central High. School. oitse lug Broad street, there will be seen an immense range of foundries and factories; forges in full blast, and the busy hum of industry will bring With it as sociations of prosperity and happiness. From this scene of activity, we soon reach Eighteenth streets where may be seen the Silent "BAPTIST CHUEOH, with a high steeple, pointing towards the dome of heaven. The church building, and smaller edifices, for the use of schools, prayer meetings, &0., are built of brown sandstone, with low eves, from which steep slate roofs spring, thus giving the entire struts tura a sort of Gothic appearance. This is a new structure, that will attract more than ordinary attention in this Improving neighbor. hood, and as we look westward from this point, there opens out to view long ranges of splendid dwellings of uniform Sloe, with beautiful flower gardens in front, - enclosed with embellished iron railings. The city here, it may be said, is semi rural, and ten degrees cooler, on an average, than in the more compactly-built portions. The church was dedicated yesterday, 25th instant, by Bishop Simpson. The Pairmount Iffarket.house, a large and airy building, may be seen on the left, a short distance above Twenty-second street. This market-place is well attended. Here all the luxuries and necessa ries of life may be obtained at lower rates, so we learn, by ten or fifteen per cent., than at some of the other houses whore competition is about the same, and the demand greater. The car now turns, up Twenty-third Street, and here the grade is upward, and pretty heavy. The horses, as a general thing, walk up this kill, and thus the passenger can have a slow view ot the en- Chanting perspective. Splendid dwellings and fault less flower-gardens will oast most beautiful visionary photographs upon the retina. From this point we catch a glimpse of the Eastern Penitentiary and we behold the finely-moulded building known as the Northern Home for Friendless Children, standing at Twenty-third and Brown streets; farther to the northiglird, the ROUSE of 'Refuge; and a littleto the right, an immense nataind, with paling-fonoe on top, foreshadows the gisat basin of the Spring Gar den Water Works. We new tarn to the left, and proceed out Brown street. The depot of the 001 n. patty is located at this turning point. It is a very large, substantial Structure, and has all the conve- niences necessary for o extensive an establishment. From the depot the double track 15 downgrade, and here scenes of great natural beauty will arrest the attention. The view Is full of splendor. To the &.01. Train, studded with trees of almost _every shade of green—pretty buildings, towers, and Cupolas, and other signs of progressive civilization, form a pleasant contrast, as though- dOttillg3 or Streakings of light in the vast picture; to the weal, where the upper outline of a gently-rising hill teens to unite with the horizon, the stand-pipe of ths West Philadelphia Water Works rears its lof4 head. It is from this pipe that the reltidents of the West End receive their supply of theaqueous that is first forced into the immense perpendicular reservoir by a couple of cornisb. engines. The NV face in this region of the city is high ; In some places being ninetyiive feet above high-water mark, Standing in silent eontemplatioe, the lover of natu ral scenery will be attracted by the murmuring water breaking over Fairmount darn ; the scream- Jag of locomotive whistles will remind him of the progressive age in which we live ; long trains of oars will pass up or down before his vision, bringing or taking the produce of sections very remote from each other. A step farther, and we are within the edge of Fairmount Park, the oar going close to the main gateway. As we write this, there is a solemn stillness of Nature all around. The atmosphere is cool ; it is delightful ; it is pure ; no breeze, how ever, le stirring ; not a leaf is moving; and the sur face of the Schuylkill is like a gigantic mirror. Bat there come the sounds of harmony, the music of the" band, awakening many and many a pleasant echo, and transferring, so to speak,. the listener to the happy land of dreams. It la falmoot like the abode of fairies; there seems to be enchantment in the shady boughs of the stately cedars, the tall and graceful pines, the broad elms, or the expitnalve oaks, as birds are hopping, skipping, or flying from branch to branch, making the air vocal with their sweet songs. It is here that toiling millions may resort, and pass an hour or two In ease. It la a place ti m e a few years since - was generally unktioWA to the people of Philadelphia. It was a vast store hong° of natural magnificence, labia comma- Lively few—the rich—had the ready means to 'un lock ; but now the great Union Railway, and one or two other companies that shall receive due atten tion, hard placed the key in the hands of the whole people—prise, seven cents each. Thus we conclude the up-trip. We now ask the reader to return with us on the DOWNWARD TRIP, 110t112g, as We Pus along, the trivet prominent plaelee worthy of especial attention, until we reach the Navy Yard, from which wo not long ago started• As W"e. enter Wallace street, and a little before this, a much olearer view of the frowning walls and towers of the Eastern Penitentiary Is obtained than on the upward trip. At Sixteenth and Wallace a cluster of handsomelptinished dwellings, studded With Splendid flower gardens, and seemingly Con- SPRING GARDEN HALL EPHITiO 6.4.11D821 M. M. CMI7IIO/X. NATURAL BOBNEMY mated with iron verandas, painted green, Sag sett ease, opulence, and happiness. Canary and mockingbirds cheer the scone of beauty, and a die. play of American flags, Borne of them stilt draped, indicate the patriotism of the inhabitants of this pectin of the oily. What a contrast this Dietara presents to others on this route that we shall MUM presently. Passing down Wallace street we reach the depot of the Germantown, Norristown, and Chest• nut Bill Railroad Company, where the oar halts for a minute for the accommodation of any passengers who desire to proceed to Other parts of the city. This is an admirable arrangement. We now pass on, under the guidance of a skilful driver and clover conductor, until reaching Frank lin street, a much older thoroughfare than some folks dream of. Turning southward, we observe the Jc With Synagogue, Beth El Emelh, above Green street; thee, a little farther OD, a number of houses, whisk, from their black "headers," indicate they were erected more than a century since. Emerging from the long row of bricks and mortar, there presently comes up to view the beautiful Franklin square, with its tall shade•trees, weeping-willows, and playing fountains, casting rainbow tints upon the sparkling water-drops, as they descend by myriads into the basin. After flanking the square on the left, we push on, down Seventh street, where the activity of business is EOM on every hand. The Jewish Syne. gogne, Nevi; Israel, that can boast of an eminently patriotic oongrogation, is a modern Strad:are, hay log been erected so lately as the year MD. The corner•atone was laid early in the month of May in that year. Below Aroh street, a white marble building on tho east side,. that makes no particular Pretensions to embellished architecture, will be re cognized at the SECOND PBEISBYTBEIAN CHIIROII, the congregation of which,- years ago, worshipped In another building located at Third and Arch streets. Their present church building is neat and Convenient in its constraction. but IS more in keeping with the architecture of the last century, than the handsome cosmopolite order, If such It can be called, of the present day. We now pass on, and in the long panorama we observe the Guardians of the Poor Mee and build ing, just above Zane street; then we mime to the venerable Episcopal church, called the IMIS2=3 where most of the religiously inclined theatrical an tors and actresses worship on Sunday mornings. It is a very old structure, and carries us baok In the imagination to the days of long ago, when our grandfathers were little children. The principal elfloe of the Phfladelphia Gas Works Indents the line below Market ti th o e u e v rtt oo e i n t t e, o t f il t e o m en s t r y . feet, more or less, w. ble banding Will be recognised as the y„. Farther on at °hesitant street, the new building for The Press Of/ice is being built; while directly opposite on the east able, was once the site of Barnum's Museum, totally destroyed by fire, fourteen or fatten years ago. It is now occupied by a large edifice known as Swaim's banding, of panacea notoriety. Directly In this vicinity, as we shall enumerate, are many institutions of local value and general Interest. Here we see : The Grand Division eons of Temperance, No.llB Seventh street, Union Benevolent Awn Mlle% No. it% Penneylganla Bible Society, N. W. oor. Walnut and Seventh. Philadelphia Bible Soolety, do. do. do. Board of Malone, P. E. Ohnroh, Walnut, above Seventh. • Divinity Students and Society, do. do. do. Pro. Epis. Society to Promote Christianity Among the Jews, 7cB Walnut street. 4'M - female Tract Society, 708 Walla anat. Episcopal Rooms, in same building. Philadelphia Society to Promote Agr!sultan), ire Walnut street. As the car passes along these planes the pagan. ger will see Washington square to the left hand, one. half cf which la compassed by the Union track. Going around this handsome public breathing spot, a church building, erected In accordance with the true principles of architecture, will attract some at. tention. This is the First Presbyterian Church„ built many years since, and Is remarkable for its ilnely formed steeple, and the superior clear tone of Its bell. We are now in Seventh street again, and if the question be asked, what is that large press•brlak building at the southwest corner of Seventh and Spruce streets I the knowing conductor or passen ger well reply, that is the St. Joseph's Female Or. ?liana , Asylum, connected With the Catholic Chunk. This Institution is large and well ventilated. It has a clever•sized yard, but is not ornamented with trees. At intervals the orphans, who have a home here, are taken to church. Their appearance on the street, as they pass along in line, the tallest ones first, and so on down to the extreme left, all uniformly dressed and scrupulously clean and neat, Is at once interesting. ECICNBB OIT ANOTEBE BIND This part of the route, almost to Federal street, does rot present as pretty pictures as those we have hastily described, but they are equally as interest. ing—decidedly FO to the philanthropist, the moralist, and the humanitarian. We are apt to think that not many of the people of Philadelphia are cog'. rant of the real condition of society in this Section. Here we find for several Squares, sayfrom Lombard to Fitz waterstreet, the abode of poverty, wretchedness. and misery. White and bleak, old and young, reek leg in the pestilential atmosphere of ram, rags and rills, abound here like so many roaches in a dirty house in Liverpool. The habitual drunkard Is a monumental temperance sermon, as long as he Jana ta:le in this vicinity, there are volumes of such ser; mane. It is a rum neighborhood, With a dirty lase Work of narrow alleys and courts, fringed with rags and filth. Here may be seen the pine officers, with rattans In their hands, switching beastly pee. arerwmte, uouronevo alleys and della, or rum holes, BO as to keep them fromthe public streets. There we observe four or five ragged colored women wrangling about a bottle; at another view we ob. serve blear-eyed white women performing a dance - of the demons ; and ragged children shout with laughter, while oaths and imprecations shock the moral sense. As the Shedding of human blood may cause some timid hearts to faint, yet all should be stout enough to bind the wounds of bleeding taxi inanity. So ought the moral reformers of Philader phia visit these pieces often, and instead of trimming off the dead branches of this tree of evil, root it out by the patent sttompextractor of brave humanity, and in its place erect a House of Correction. What a great blessing such an institution would be to this unfortunate class of human beings, steeped as they now are in poverty and crime! It would be to them as much of a . 4 blessing in disguise" as the fall of Charleston, Savannah or Richniand was to the Rebel Government and its deluded people. As the ear passes along, the eye will be attracted by the beautiful Episcopal church, en Catharine street, above Seventh, north side; while directly op. polite the vision will take in the fair proportions of the House of industry, an institution of very great merit. This assoolation Is thobest OrallPhiladelpbla Charities. It furnishes food and clothing for the miserable, degraded poor, of which we have just briefly spoken. Tens of thousands of the lower order in the seals of humanity congregate at this place, on the *old days; of winter, to receive soup and bread. It will continue in its usefulness until there shall be erected a House of Correction, when there will be a great falling off in thh number of applications for charity soups. The great probs. bility is that hall the money expended on this 'natl. tution, in its erection and maintenance, would be sufficient to pay for the building of an institution for stringent corrective parses, blended with moral melon. Upon reaching the interseetion, where PaSsynnk road ferns an acute angle with Seventh street, a ear for the especial convenience of passengers will switch off and proceed to the Baltimore depot via Ellsworth street, already noticed on the upward trip. This branch-track takes in its circuit Chris tian street, where it turns into the main track at Ninth street. The arrangement is a clever one. It is decidedly a very great accommodationko the people up town or down, who desire to easily resell the depot. above mentioned. There is no extra oust for this. The Conductor will give a cheek to each passenger who wants to reach the depot. Keeping on the main track, the oar Will turn eastward with Federal street,. and continuing down will pass the southern part cf the Union Burial Ground, wherein many of the residents of old Southwark repose in death's long sleep, amid Waling Waukee, roses, and honeysuckles. On the next square below, the south front Of the extensive Works of Messrs, Merrick & Son, founders, will pass before the vision, and then comes the youngest, and most beautiful of our public squares, named in honor of Jefferson, the author of the Declaration of Independence. This square was known as the Miller 101, it being the property of Colonel Miller, of the United States Army. It had been cared to the corporation of Southwark for many years, for purposes of a kciblio Square, in the Ant place for the Rosen sum of about MAO, but li araamor purchased until a short time before 0011- solidation. The Native American party controlled the affairs of the district of Southwark, and mils lug the fact that the consolidation of the various munieipalities was simply a question of short time, purchased this lot for the sum - Of 390.000. /liras then worth 3181,000 for building purposes. There Was much factious opposition to the measure at that time, but the Corporation, possessing a share of the spirit of Young Amadei', pushed on regardlesa of all opposition, and now the people of the South ern part or the city can boast of a really beautiful square, worth nearly a quarter of a million of dollars. Its trees are so planted and so vigorous in growth, that they form a Cartes of arcades that Orin a continuous shade upon its graVelled walks. 00103LIIBION. Passing down Federal street, we observe the main entrance to the Navy Yard, an institution too well known to elaborate especially In this connection. The car here stops, and this part of the agreeable journey ends. When it hl considered that the whole of this trip can be enjoyed for the small sum of only fourteen cents, no reasonable being should allow himself, or herself, to remain in ignorance of the beautiful proportions and splendid localities and enchanting scenes proverbial of the great city of Philadelphia. HALF AN HOUR AMONG THE BREHM.— The run was shining down, the other morning, in a style that would have done honor to the sweltering regions of the tropics. Beneath its torrid beams several hundred rebels, who had taken the oath of allegiatce to their native country, trudged their way from the .Delaware wharf to the depot, in West Philadelphia, where they awaited transportation. Among the motley crowd were a number possessing natural intelligence, though uneducated. From the excessive heat, they might have supposed they were already in the "Sunny South," and that under such a high temperature it would be Impossible far Northerners to be the coldhearted barbarians they had been represented to be. The repentants pre sented a varied picture for philosophical contempla dun. Some of them were decidedly sullen, and at times exhibited a morose disposition. Others seemed to regard matters and things as they found them,with a degree of philosophy entirely creditable. Numbers wen. loquacious, and their speech indicated the pa. coliarities of various 100a11ties of our country. Among that crowd was a tall Individual, with gray. tis bine eyes, sunken Cheek, sallow complexion, and long yellow ish hair dangling down his neck Ho seemed possessed of natural intelligence, but was deficient in point of education. In hie speech he was remarkably ane. We will attempt a, de scription of the soen o that o ccurred, exelusive of its profanity. Among the spectators wee a gentleman remarks,- ble for tae eraphatiO style in whioh he Kama er. gement on the different topics of the day. He eyed the crowd of rebels for some time, mingled haired them, and finally Singled out the tall, yellow -haired tudividual above alluded to for a little especial eon venation. "You're a Smith Carolinian, I inippellel" Said the Sprtator. To my native eountry," replied the repent ant rebel Your native country t Were Ali boll/ there I" Weal, I was." "Then the whole country is your native country, and not simply South Carolina," responded the gentleman. " Waal, I donttknew about that ar, stranger ; YOU fellows have licked us like "Don't say that, six. for you are entirely Mlie taken," replied the interlocutor. " Waal, I don't know what you call a ; If we dideit get it, then I don't know what a tickle' is ; why, sir, we're tore out root and branch, and smashed down like Yirginny tobacco la a press." "Now, let me tell you," responded the dialogist, "the North has only brought you fellows back into the Union ; the North did not invade the South merely to thrash you; the North took the good old flag of the Union there, and asked you to come under Its protection; you refused, and the North went at you, and, alter pretty herd fighting, have brought you under that flag again. This is ail the North has done. The North said that the Ualoa should not be divided, and this doctrine is fully maintained by American arms and American valor." lip this time the;argument beganto:inorease in interest; other rebels gathered around, and atten tively listened ; they looked upon the strange gen tleman as though a sort of demigod had paid them re visit, and that words of wisdom were dropping from his lips. "Guess that are loader must be a Congressman," said one rebel to another, aside. "He's one on km say how," said another; bat he don't look like an abolitioner." "NO, I guess lie ain't ono on km critters no hew," responded a third ; " but he talks pooty." "I like them ar eentiments, and when .I get to Red river Pll express 'em as me own," said a rough , lacking customer, with bushy whiskers. These are specimens el many side remarks that prevailed. "Well," continued the gentleman, "now don't return to your homes with any false notion about the pee* Of the North. They are your friends ; they will assist you" if you will only show a disposi tion to assist yourselves in Industrial pursuits. Yon must go to work, love the good old flag, and, if neces sary, you must ght for it, and not against it." "By —, stranger,. you speak like a man; we never will fight against the old flag." "Nor the Union 1" " No, sir, never ; we are for the Union against all enemies; we've been enemies to ourselves." "You have been misled by false teachers, and you must guard against them ; you must thick for yourself; but never array yourself against that good old flag; [here he pointed to one floating from the station the depot ;l you must put all your Jeff Devises down under your feet, and not permit them to trample you in the duet." "That's so, by chimed in several. "D JeirDavis ; if ,the Government don't hang him we will, if we can only get a chance." It really seemed that these men would have in- Teff Davis, or any admirers of the 001,00 "..ee" bae_an opportunity have bean given them . By the time - nor etelAgue Was con. eluded the rebate gave unmistakable evfoeove or the change that had overcome the spirit of their dreams, by actually giving three cheers for the United States, and death to Teff Davis. Verily, the world moves • THE FOunTH or JUDY.—The coming anniversary of American Independence will be celebrated In a style never before equalled. City Councils have not yet acted finally upon the bill before them for the celebration on that day. The Union League will celebrate the day by a grand meeting at the Academy in the morning, at which the Declaration of Independence will be read and other interesting exercises take place. In the even ing they will have a grand display of fireworks at Penn square. There will probably not be so much noise from firs crackers as on former celebrations of the day, owing to the high priors of those articles. Fire•oraokers aro seven dollars a box wholesale, and retail for twenty or twentptive cents a pack. The golden dragon brand, the celebrated ()Illness crackers are evenuiore accoutre. A dollar a pack is the pride of the huge crackers that make a noise like a pistol. A pack of them contains just ten. Double-headed Dutchmen, the great cracker used before the war, are now obsolete. Four years ago they were freely purchased for two cents each ; now they would be twenty-five. Pin-wheels are two cents, and large ones are three times the price of last year. Roman Candles are two dollars and a half for a dozen, and all other fireworks in propor tion. ARRIVAL OF THE STARS AND STRIPER.— The United States steamer Stars and Stripes ar rived at this port, on Saturday, from the Mat Gulf squadron, having left Key West at 5 P.lll. on the 17th inst. This vessel has been in commission nearly thirty-three months, during which time she has performed efficient service on the blockade of the Florida coast. She was last on the blockade at „St. Marks, Florida, and participated in the own. bleed malltexy and naval attack made on that place by General Newton, in Marsh last. The passage from Kay West was very pleasant. On the 22d inst., off Gape Henry, boarded the mall steamer Evening Star, from New York for New Of. leans, and received a supply of late papers. The health of Key West was very good. There had been no cases of yellowefever reported up to the day of sailing. The Powhatan, Dale, /no, and Tal lapoosit, were in port on the 17th inst. T. 11.3 officers of the ship are: Acting Volunteer Lieutenant Commanding— John Sherrill. _ 'Acting . Neater and Executive Offloer—Henry Welton. Acting Asa Matt Paymaster—. Tames Winter.

PALE OF GOVBENIMIT Honswa—uh ria turday afternoon the first sale of Government horses, which has been held in this city, took place at Wash matowstreet wharf. A worse place for a sale could scarcely have been found. The enolosure was so small as not to allow room for the horses good or bad points to be seen, and the sun poured its most intense heat into the enolosnre, and there was no place of escape [rem it. The auctioneer, previous to commencing the sale, apologized tor the want of aecoMmoeatiOns lie h ad not known until the pre vices day that it would certainly take place, or better arrangements would have been made. There were all sorts of people present—fops, with eye glasses across their arliVocrailo noes ; oysterman, hucksters, millomen, puffy fat men, with the perspi ration rotting from them in streams ; thin men, who didn't mind the heat ; Jerseymen, Delawarlans, and Pennsylvania. farmers. The bidding was quite spirit ed, and it MU! thought that the horses brought more than they were worth. Nag No. 1 was trotted out a few minutes after ten o'clock, and was a bay, ten years old ; he was started at $2O, and knocked down for $52 No. 2, a bay, eight years old, sold for $33. No. 3. a bay, ten years old, was knocked down for EL The prices ranged from six dollars to one hundred and fifty dollars. Thesix-dollar nag was a broken.down gray, that had evidently done the State some service. Ile was spavined, had the heaves, and was blind of one eye. a large gray nag was knocked down to a Georgia contraband, who said that he had come "all de way from Georgie to start business in die here town," and he was bound to have one of Uncle Abe's horses.

PENNSTIMAXIIA. BARGE CLUB.—On Satur day afternoon there was a gay and lively time on the placid waters of the Schuylkill, above the Fair mount dam, on the occasion of the housing of a beautiful barge, butt by Messrs. Lnffbery St S'onS, for the Pennsylvania Barge Club. The fraternal feeling existing between the several boat clubs was exhibited in the decorations of the various houses, from which flaunted In the pleasant breeze the gay colors of, the respective organizations. The differ ent clubs were out with their respective boats, and the reception of the new comer among them was lively, agreeably, auo interesting. The attractions to this part of the oily are great, and Increasing. The police regulations are excellent, so that tbe citi zens may resort thither and enjoy the many pretty wises on the Schuylkill or the hillside Without mo lestation. FIREMEN'S /TEM.—The 'United States Engine Company expect to resolve their new steamer early in the coming month. The machine being constructed by the Portland Manufaoturing Company, of Maine.

GENERAL GRANT AT THE tr/irOle-LEA.GUE Rotrew.—On Saturday, from eleven to two O'elook, General Grant received the members of the 'Union League and their families at the League House, The reception took place In the reading-room, on the second floor. Visitor!! Were admitted through the main entrance on Broad street, passed up the easternmost aide of the grand Stairway, WU& Wes divided by means of a rope, entered the reading room, pasted the Geneva, and returned down the western side of the staircase, through the rear entrance, into Sansone street. The Sat terieeet band was stationed on the rear veranda, and discoursed beautiful music during the reception. The restaurant did a large business, every teat and table being fatly occupied. Visitors were tetreinetd to General Grant by Morton Molfieletel,Ese. The General gave each one a hearty shako of the hand, and did not appear at all fatigued by the operation, which was so often repeated. Ile was accompanied by his two sons, and Colonels Badean and Porter, of his stall. In dm afternoon, the general was present at the Children's Concert, given for the benefit of the soidiene liome, at the Academy of MAO.

The general gracefully bowed, ana the wreath was put round his neck. The scene was, indeed, a pretty one. DEDICATION OF THE SPRING GARDEN M. E. CIRITEOH.—The Spring Garden elethodiet Episcopal Church was dedicated yesterday morning to theserviee of the Almighty. The buildieg, which Is one of unusual beauty, is located at Twentieth and Spring Garden streets. The chtlrell Was crowded in every part during the different services . held in it during the day. In the morning the Rev. Alfred Uookinan, the pastor, took part in the services. Ile was assisted by Rev. Bishop Simpson, who preached a sermon from the latter clause of the fourth verse of the fifth chapter of first Epistle of John. The subject was Christian Faith." The speaker treated At generically rather than theologically. The wide sphere of knowledge Is opened by faith rather than by experience, and as knowledge gives power, so faith Imparts the else manta of all intellectual and moral triumph. This was illustrated by referring to Cho effect of doe trinal views In giving steadiness in exeltemente, whether by physical or Intellectual causes, and to the presence of education, which carries thought to distant lands and ages, and calls up as actors the departed good and great to the means by which the student, the poet, and the statesman attain emi nence. It was argued that If God established this law of elevation in other departments it must extend to our . spiritual being, and that if man is elevated to moral purity, it must be by faith. The facts connected with Christian experience were then reviewed as illustrating the same law. The discourse defied with a comparison of the re halve influence of infidelity and Christianity. A collection was then taken up in behalf of the church enterprise, when a large sum of money was realized. In the afternoon a meeting was held in the same place In which clergymen of different persuasions participated. and in the evening a sermon was de. ilve: ad by Rev. Dr. Durbin before a very large au dience. The cornerstone of this beautiful structure watt laid about two years since, and althceigh its walls have been reared in troublesome times, much Otte- CM attended the progress of the work. The an dience chamber is lighted by gat from the ceiling. There are galleries extending round the audience room and one immediately back of the pulpit, in which it is intended to place a first class organ. The cost of the church will probably reach the.stun of $55,000. EXPLOSION OF A LOCOMOTIVE HOU.Ru.— Shortly after five o'clock on Saturday morning, °emotive number twenty six, named, Admiral Da• pent, that had brought a tratnof troops from Wash ington, exploded while on the return. The engine belonged to the Philadelphia, 'Wilmington, and Baltimore Railroad Company. The explosion oo• curred on the trestle-work, not far distant from the Moakley Almshouse. There were only four per. suns on the train at the time, consisting oL the en gineer, hit assistants, and the conductor. The Dollar exploded with a loud report, which was heard at the distance of four miles. It was supposed to be that of a piece of heavy artillery. At the time of the sad atiair, Marshall Hen,ssey, the chief of the Almshouse was standing on the portico of that in stitution. He Immediately hastened to the scene, followed by parties carrying blankets and stretch ers. Drs. Parry and Ford, resident physicians, fol. lowed at once, to render all assistance that might be necessary. William Clifford, the engineer, was badly scalded, and had one of his legs broken near the ankle. The other three escaped with slight bruises. The engineer was removed to the hos pital at the Almshouse, where he received every attention. Though very badly nun, It was thought that he would recover. He was oheerful, and talked quite rationally for some time. He said that he noticed a want of water In the boiler, and just as he Ur-sad the pump on, as he bad often done before, the "critter," (to use his language) "blew up." The force of the explosion was downward, and the trestle work was more or less damaged. Workmen were employed at once to remove the wrecked engine and make the neces sary repairs to the trestle work, which objects were accomplished In a short time.'.Signal men were also stationed on the road at convenient distanCes, to prevent any further accident to trains approach ing either way. There was no delay in travel, of any moment, owing to the explosion. DEsTitucTivE Ffitff.—A destructive fire broke out on Saturday morning, between three and four o'clock, in the extensive saw factory of, Henry Diston, on Haydock street, below Front. The facto ry, four stories in height, and extending from Hay dock to Laurel streets, contained a large quantity of valuable machinery and much material, besldni finished saws. The lire spread with such -rapidity, so coon enveloping the entire building In flames, that no attempt was made to save the contents. Though early on the ground, the firemen could not work as effectively as they would have done, in Con sequence of the condition of the walls. Chief En gineer Lyle, under an apprehension that the wells would fall, whiohthe result showed was well found ed, ordered the firemen to keep out of their reach, andlio one was Injured. The saw factory was de• stroyed, and the contents rendered valueless. Mr. piston's loss Is estimated at 550,000, which 10 portly covered by insurance. The fire extended tO a large building on the west of the factory, which was occu pied by 'Wllmarth Es Brooke as a flour mill, and the upper part by Mr. Piston, for storage. This build. lug was almost destroyed, and the flour and grain Were either burned or damaged so much as_tobe of Milo value. The saw factory was owned by Dlr. DO WD, and the flour mill by Mrs. Sarah (Holten. The loss of the lady, which is put down at 815,000, fully covered by insurance. Nessra. Wilmarth & Brooke, whose loss is about $7,000, are also fully insured.. The entire loss will loot up to $72000. While the fire Wail at Its height it presented a grand spectacle. The roaring and cracking of the flames, the taxi. rumble sparks that were carried into mictatr, the ilininination of the whole northern notion of the city, all gave to the scene a grand aspeot. The fire continued to burn until long atter daylight, and on Saturday evening, about hall past nine o'clock, it again broke out and created another alarm, but no further damage was done.
