With Freedom's soil beneath our loot, And Freedom's banner streaming o'er nil The Distress among the Laboring Classes. The question of providing relief for those who may have been driven from employment by the existing crisis is being agitated among our citizens. We have had a few meetings among the workingmen. Some of them were marked with temperance of action and dig , nity, while in others we could trace that spirit • of demagoguism which is always intruded ; npon the distresses and troubles of the poor. • Many of the experiences related by the speak ers were touching, and exhibited a degree --of privation and to contemplate. Many were told in a spirit of exaggeration, and with a view of creating false sympathy. Bat, beyond all this, it is evident that the subject is one which goes to the hearts of our people, andde serves the immediate attention of the muni cipal authorities. - We have no reliable data on which to base - an opinion of our own. •We have given the subject some attention, but it is impossible to sift any quantity of troth from the mass of ru mors and inferences which burden the co lumns of the newspapers of the day. We read • in Southern journals of the great want which exists in the populous cities of the North—of famine, pestilence, broad riots, and mob law. All. statements like these are prompted by the wish which is lather to the thought. War, whether necessary or unnecessary, will bring evils. When a nation is in a quarrel, it mist neglect the counting-honse and the market. The-burden rests equally on all— the merchant with his argosies and the wea ver with his shuttle. One sees disordered COmmerce and mercantile- failure—the other, idle looms and high prices for food. .• Inordinary times, we have a general system of relief for the poor and needy. In well regulated society, the average of those who are dependent upon the State for support is small, and many of those in our almshouses go from fault, and not from misfortune. When the natural avenues of labor are open, they will be filled ; when, by any unwonted re • volution of society, these avenues become obliterated or swept away, we feel a burden of . support upon us which requires extraordinary efforts to relieve. This is more especially the • ease in our present state of society as seen in the cities. The poorer classes are dependent classes. We develcip capital in large cities; and, to secure its development, the ,energles and time of hundreds must be employed. A -large cotton mill or iron foundry given em !ployment to hundreds and the means of life ,to thousands. So long as the iron trade is "brisk and cotton goods are in demand, these hundreds perform their daily labor cheerfully, and their families live in comfort from year to year. Bat when a commercial panic or a 'ltite of war ensues, these dependent opera tives are immediately reduced to want and hardship. This system of dependent labor is radically wrong. It is an evil—and it may be 'a neces sary evil—but in America, the more a man depends upon his own immediate resources, and the more completely those resources .are under his command, the more independent he is as a citizen. This consideration makes us hail every new invention in labor-machinery as a great, permanent, and positive blessing. Labor is a condition of life, but a democracy should realize independent labor, to develop its advantages. ' Much of the bodily vigor and the mental effort employed in the cotton mill and the iron foundry would be far better em ployed in raising wheat and corn. Many expedients are suggested to relieve the distress now existing. A recent meeting requested, among other things, that Councils Should' pass, without delay, an ordinance 'authorizing the several departments to pro • ceed forthwith to execute such work as must be done now, or at any time in the futtire;-- ouch as laying gas and water pipes and mains, grading of streets, building of school houses, Improvement of the public parks, and such other work as Councils may, in their judg ment, determine upon." ' We quote this resolution because it seems to express the sentiment which now prevails among those who are feeling the effects of these perilous times. The !suggestion is a wise one, and if Councils to-day took mea ' sures for instantly employing ten thousand Men, no one wbuld . more heartily rejoice than ourselves. There is economy in the (life dient—an economy at once humane and time ly. Pipes and mains must be laid; let them be laid now. Scheel-houses must be erected let them be erected this summer. Oar public park is in an unfinished state ; let it at once be pushed to a state of completion. This suggestion, however, is an expedient, and that only. It is a relief and not a cure. It palliates the effect, bet does not remove the cause. This war will pass over—peace will come again—and every measure of municipal improvement may be accomplished; but there Is no atunirance that another year will not bring the same calamity, the same extent of suffering, and-the same appeals to our hums ,. - nity and public spirit. The practical measure of relief will be the - .measure which sends: the .dependent labor of ' our over-burdened cities out into the agrictli- I 'Ural districts 'of lhe'West and South, where 'it may become at once independent. There are millions of acres to be cultivated, over whoae fruitful bosom the ploughshare has never traced the winding furrow. There are. thou sands of mon in this city who dig and delve, and spin and weave,—who lead 'a life of priva tion and toil,—who live in unhealthy locall ties,—who have no future beyond the hour and the wages of the honr,—who almost die today, that they and those they love may live to-morrew,—men of active mind and strong frame,—of intelligence and energy, who could at once find employment as tillers of the soil. These men are wanted in the . West,—they are not wanted here. Let those, therefore, who really sympathize with the workmen now in distress, devise some means by which they can be removed to the more inviting and more profitable lands of the Western States. This will be far bete ter than any temporary ordinances of a body of Councilmen. It looks to the future ; and to a future full of attraction to the tree mlnded and energetic laborer. G_ South Carolina We notice that several of our exchanges give expression to the desire, which is almost universally entertained by the loyal portion of the American people, that before the present war closes special pains should be taken to in flict upon the traitors of South Carolina the punishment they have so richly deserved. For many years the politics of that State have been controlled by avowed enemies of the Union, and all the calamities which have be fallen our country were, in a great measure, caused by their constant and undisguised efforts to .destroy the Confederacy. Year after year they have gone on plotting treason, fulminating thunders against our present form of Government, expatiating upon the advan tages of disunion, and disseminating theories which were antagonistic to the permanence of our institutions. Tho constant dropping of water will wear away a etone, and it was im possible that the Secession doctrines invented in South Carolina should bo forever circulated without eventually producing a powerful-im pression. When what she supposed was the proper hour for prating into practical operation the schemes. she bad long cherished had arrived, she did not hesitate to resort to the most ex treme measures, and it was chiefly politicians who had been trained in her school, and many of them men who had been born on her soil, that induced the people of other Southern States to follow her infamous example. Upon her, therefore, rests a fearful responsibility. Most grievously has she offended, and terribly should she be punished for the mischief she baa done. At the present season her climate forms a useful protection, but , when the treats of autumn fall, we shall be surprised if she is not taught, in a way that will never be for gotten, that such treasonable insolence, and such wanton disregard for the peace and pros perity of a great people, as she has exhibited, cannot be suffered to pass unpunished, and that the fall of Sumpter will be fearfully avenged. Several weeks ago her Governor Issued a proclamation setting forth that no more troops would be allowed to leave the State, and quite recently, when the terms of some of her vo lunteer regiments in Virginia expired, they took the first train for home, notwithstanding the strong desire for their continued presence upon the soil of the Old Dominion which was naturally felt by General Baaraxesaif. But all those soldiers, and thousands of others, will not be sufficient to enable the grandees of Palmettodom to carry out their project of keeping the war from their own shores. The Proceedings of Congress The proceedings of Congress yesterday were of an important and interesting charac ter. The tone and policy of those who are disposed to embarrass the Administration, and to prevent a vigorous prosecution of the war, were displayed, as well as the unanimity and determination of those who are anxious to maintain the honor of our flag, and the inte grity of the Union. In the Senate Mr. POLK of Missouri, and Mr. KZNIIKDT of Maryland, and in the Rouse Mr. Buaarary of Kentucky, and Mr. Varsaftnianam of Ohio, assailed the vigorous course which has been pursued by the President. But their at tacks fell upon unsympathizing ears, and only served to prove how fully the freedom of debate is tolerated even at this terrible crisis. The fact that they were listened to at all is, in itself, one of the strong est reasons that could be given why the tyran nical conspiracy, to which they are endeavor. ing to render aid and comfort, should bo crushed, for wherever the insurgents obtain power, one of their first acts is to destroy all freedom of opinion, and to severely punish and persecute all who dare to oppose their wicked course. The House passed the new loan and reve nue bills by an almost unanimous vote. Their provisions are explained in our telegraphic despatches, and the patriotic citizens of our country will doubtless freely respond to the financial appeal about to be made to them. War Telegrams. In times of war, it cannot be expected that the reports of skirmishes and battles should equal in authenticity the ordinary publications of affairs, unconnected with great national crises. Hence, the reader, at eras similar to the present, mast not expect a degree of vera city approaching the communications incident to a time of peace, when the avenues to in formation are open, and the facts of notice free to inspection, narration, and transmission. The newspaper press has been blamed, since the beginning of this civil war, with the publication of unwarranted and baneful mes sages. With a few indifferent exceptions, the items as stated have been free from fraud or alteration. The major ?art of the same have been forwarded through the Al sociated Press, and published substantially as received. Intelligent readers will, of course, discriminate between tidings thus for warded in a season of great excitement 'and tidings transmitted in . a state of peace. To enter into an explanation of the difficulties incident to collecting and collating facts and rumors of battles and sieges, will , not make oar meaning clearer. In a long connection with the Asaociated Press and its tried agents, we have to say that its news matter is gene rally reliable. So far as our own despatches aro concerned, we have no excuse to offer. They speak for themselves. When right, we claim that intrinsic veracity which, amid so much of sensational and fabricated matter, becomes a virtue of more than ordinary note ; and when mistaken, ask that forbearance'and charity' which an impartial public always af ford. • - ireiinisasii feature of the High School Clornmencement of this State is the offering of its efforts and profits to the cause of the volun teers. For the past throe months, a tried officer .has been drilling the children of the public schools in the elements of military practice. The young ladies of the Normal and Grammar Schools have subscribed their abilities to numberless concerts for tho relief of the wives of soldiers. And now, the crowning act of the system is the donating of the receipts of the Boys' High School Com mencement to the families Rua dependents of the Philadelphia regiments, whose protectors have gone to the war, upholding the loyalty and honor of this Commonwealth. With such lessons from the young behind them, to what deeds of valor shall not the active and the manly be whetted! ti The child is father of the man."

Intelligence from McClellan's Column. BucituAssou, July 10.—A messenger is just in from General MaMalian, who reports that the enemy are very strongly entrenohed less than two miles from his camp. Gen. McClellan direoti that the forces within a radius of forty miles shall join his column at once. The Indiana Fifth will leave here early In the morning, and the Ohio Tenth will be recalled from Glenville, and proeeed to join the main column, which is now about 9,000 strong. After the messenger got under way he heard an exchange of shots: Despatolies from General McClellan intimate that he would attack the position of the enemy to morrow.

(Corressondenee of The Press.] • ` WASHINGTON, Jaly 10, 1801. nave you ever thought what would become of any man who, in the convention of Southern trai tors, should rise and denounce the policy of Jef ferson Davis, and avow, his determination to em barrass the operations of the traitors' army ? How long would snob independence be tolerated, or be permitted to go unpunished ? In the Ame rican Congress men are to be found who not only sympathise with Seeerslon, but boldly avow their determination to realet the preparations for the defence of the Government and the Constitution, and to refuse to sanotion the 'nurse which the President was about to take in the premises. If there is one prerogative more glorious than another, which distinguishea this country from foreign Powers, it is the freedom of the press and the freedom of speech. The widest license le allowed in the non slaveholding States to men of all parties, 'in the utterance and publication of their opinions ; but, on the other hand, It is resisted or restricted in the slave States; and not only this, but its exercise is pun ished sometimes by confiscation and expatriation, ' and not unfrequently with death. It should be recollected that the men most active in assailing and embarrassing the Administration In the present crisis, are from the slave States; men, in foot, who would join in a wild hallo against a Northern oiti. sen speaking his sentiments in their own section. They plant themselves upon what they call the un constitutional acts of President Lincoln, and while doing so are stained with the shame of having trampled the very Constitution under foot of which they now profess to ba the supreme oonservators They declaim against the war as us }act and one], and yet are known to have approved the wands. lons coarse of the Southern leaders who rendered the warlike preparations of Mr. Lincoln necessary. by being the first to attack oar oommon flag. 1 confess 1 have been surprised to see snob men as these taking their seats in the Senate and IR the House. They ate here professedly to serve two masters—one the Southern Con federacy, to which they are sincerely de voted, and the other the regular Government of the United States, to solidi they are sincerely op posed. It is a startling commentary upon snob conduet that the Secessionists in the present Con greas insist upon being permitted to attack the Union, even when they know that the Richmond Convention expelled almost unanimously every member of that body who had taken ground against secession, and were standing forth in Western Virginia, and in other parts of the State, as the champions of the Stars and Stripes. That there are patriotic, unoonditlonul Union men from the South in the present Congress, Is tine. Ido not believe that Mr. Crittenden is willing to en dorse Mr. Burnett's course, and I am quite sure that molt Representatives as Jackson and Dunlap. from the same State, will be found unreservedly in favor of mantel-tag the Government at all hasarde. So with the entire delegation from Virginia, and so of all the members but one from Maryland and one from Miasmal. You will per ceive, therefore, that the discontents in the House will soon be reduced to a powerless minority. This fact has, no doubt, impelled the majority to treat them with silent contempt ; but if they can effaot a division between the friends of the Government in the National Legislature, they will have opened a breach through whioh they may be able to intro duce a series of inoonoeivable disasters. Qadte an effort •is making by experienced military men to inciace the three-months volun teers, at the expiration of their term, to re-en list for the war. These troops have been admi rably disciplined, and will constitute splendid ma terial for new regiments. Many will doubtlesa return to thdlr homes, but it is oonfidently_believed that a majority are ready to remain in the service under new commanders. The New York Sixty-ninth,,the Irish regiment, under command of the gallant Ccl. Corcoran, closes its three months' service on the 23d of July. This noble regiment has performed prodigies of labor, and, if an opportunity had presented, would have wonderfully distinguished itself in battle. The fortifications at Fort Commis are works that will always remain a monument of their disinterested services for their adopted country, and will be held se a permanent defence of the city. Quite a num• ber of army appointments have been made from the ranks of this fine regiment. A. few days ago captains' commissions in the regular army were tendered to Lieutenant Colonel Nugent and Tho• mu Franois Meagher, Esq. The first to ge out of service will be the ad vatic'," or Twenty fifth regiment of Pennsylva nia, Col. Cake commanding. Five companies of this regiment, you will remember, were the first to reach Washington in response to the President's proolamation, being one day ahead of the Massa ohusetts Sixth. They reaohed here badly uni formed, and almost entirely unarmed,. and they were weloomed with the heartiest joy as the avant courier of the deliverers of the'capital. — A num ber of fine fellows have been appointed from this deserving corps ; among othere, that specimen Sol dier, Unpt. McKnight, of the Ringgold Artillery, of Reading, who has been appointed a oaptain.in the-regular servioe. When they return to Penn sylvania they deserve a hearty welcome at the bands of the people. General Scott speaks in the warmest terms of the manner in which the veteran Major General Pat terson conducts the division of the army under his command. The most extended seooess that has yet befallen ear arms was that achieved by Major General Patterson and his division. Mach has been said in depreciation of this true soldier and accomplished gentleman, and many sinister donbta were thrown out that he was too slow for the great duty assigned to him, and yet he heti displayed a promptitude and ao tivity and a courage that redeited the highest credit upon his Old companion. in:aiine,' General Scott, who selected him early in the campaign, and upon the State of which he Is an honored citizen. General Oadwalader is also entitled to the warm est praise for the manner in which he has obeyed orders and looked niter the comfort of his men. Same painful rumors have boon in circulation, to the effect that General Johnson, of the traitor army, bad repulsed the division under Major Gene. ral Patterson, but it is not Credited at the War Department; and General Scott himself does not hesitate to predict that the troops of Wise, and Johnson, and Garnett will, in a short time, be caught in the circle which is rapidly closing around them. ' VCCISIONAL. The Policy of Kentucky. Correspondence of The Pr#as.) WASHINGTON, July 8,1861 The air is hot with war rumors, and all aglow with the fierce mid-summer heat. When Paul conbridge threw down the head of Austria in mid battle, he exclaimed, " Some fiery devil hovers in the air, and pours down mischief!' Would that we. while oppressed with the dun smoke of rumor' and inhaling almost the very sulphurous breath of battle, mild also say of "the chief Instigators of this rebellion, ' Austria's head, lie there." "We may have the military coil around the neck of tkis treason, but the axe of public retribution and the sword of justice are still suspended. Until they fall we cannot expeot peace, and every indication points to the: assurenoe that the popular voice, stifled "for a time, will soon make itself heard along the Southern verge of Mason and Dixon's line. When it is heard it will be more potent than the tactics of General Scott, " more ter rible than an army with banners." We begin to feel its pulsations on the b fro. the West, as nt they acme wafted to us, with " a low, deep hare, like a nation's prayer, with its rising swells and falls." Gathering strength while pro gressing, like the mountain avalanche, there must oome utter destruction and terrible retribution to those who have so convulsed the country. Up- springing from the mountain fastnesses of Virginia and Kentucky, and from among the head-waters of the noble streams which irrigate the State of Ken tucky, thousands are prepared, at the whistle of Congress, to garrison each glen, and beat bsok the Secession forego, which have been hanging along Its border like wolves ravening for prey about a battle- field. There need be no apprehension that the active measures of the Administration will not be readily approved in locations where, heretofore, there has been no marked exhibition of sympathy with Mt. Lincoln. Ills political antecedents will be forgotten in deserved admiration of his present patriotic and determined efforts to conquer peace by crushing out every bud of the hydra of Seces sion. The President's message is meeting a hearty response from those portions of the Border States where the liberty of speech is not interdloted. From Kentuckians who are here in Washington the assurances are proffered, With ,entire onside's!. ty, that Mr. Lineobes policy will be sustained, and his reconunendations for a vigorous prosecution of the war carried out to the full. • Indeed, those who have been disposed to cavil and to question the sincerity of the patriotio devotion of the State of Kentuoky to the Union can have but little in formation as to the true position of the loyal' eons or tee immense prtssure of adverse circumstances against which they have. so reeolutely contended. The parricidal blows which the once favorite eon of Kentucky struck at her integrity and honor were ISO furtively dealt that great mischief was worked before the eyes of Kentucky were opened to the monstrous defection of Mr. Breokinridge. The same Legislature which, when it fret eon_ vaned some eighteen ' months ago, cleated . him to the United State. Senate by 'its: fell Democratic voter wag, at the late . stages of its extra endow, overwhelmingly opposed to' the policy of Becuslon, which he has labored so, earnestly to bring about, as a desolating curse to his liberal, trusting, and loyal conslltiteney. fore his designs were fully exposed, the State had take* her position on- the ground of neutrality, which, u originally interpreted, was an evidence.' of the high oonstitutional stand determined upon. 1 Bat under the more recent efforts of Governor gottin to distort it to the purposes of disunion,' It has lieeomwodlou to the Union men of the State,: and Justly 'obnoxious to the severity of eiritioleas levelled at it In the Preettient'e . reoenkxnesuige. ,Na num, except those engaged in the secret ma- ChilllgitAll of-the pestilent conspiracy to drag Ken.

The partisan strabismus which leads Governor Ma gain, 'looking through the mediuni of Mr. Breekinridge's Interpretation, to interpose ob jealous to the rightful occupation of Kentucky 6°ll by the representatives of the Federal Govern. ment, either civil or military, would enable him to effectually blockade the Ohio river from one ex treme of the State to the other, for the sovereignty of the State extends to the Shores of Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois.• No such policy was intended when Kentucky proclaimed her neutrality; she meant to take no part for es against the South, but to leave to other States the task of compelling ob.- dienoe among those who were in rebellion. This position may be attacked, and it is difficult to de fend it; but many allowances must be made for the peculiar condition Kentucky, and the Intl mate social and domestic relations subsisting he. tween her and her neighbors of Virginia and Ten nessee. No army , of Kentuckians could meet Ten nesseans in battle without opposing relatives and friends ; no sword oonid be turned against Virgi nians without shedding kindred blood. No picture drawn by the master hand of fihakspeare, depict ing the horrors of civil war, could be half so terri ble as would be the awful reality brought about by internecine strife between the three named States. And yet, in the hellish brains of Southern demagogues, such oonasquences are disregarded. But the people of Kentucky are now thoroughly convinced of their proper policy, and of the duty which they owe to themselves and to their 'country. If they have appeared lukewarm, it was not from indifference, but from the necessi ties of their position. They hoped, even against hcpe, for oonoiliation ; they trusted that a neutral policy would invite, from their immediate neigh bors of Tennessee, a .corresponding spirit of for bearance and :moderation. In • this, they have been mistaken, and now Kentucky stands, shoulder to shoulder, with the loyal States, and her Repre sentatives in Congress will vie with the most seeking in voting , men and means to put , down this un natural war, and crush out utterly and forever those terrible heresies which hare corroded the pillars of our national greatness, and gone so far towards bringing It, dishonored and crumbling, to overthrow and anarchy.

The vartridge 'Explosion. The cause of the explosion of the cartridges in the limber chest of the Second Rhode Island Light Battery has been olosely investigated, but, so far, without satistaotory results. The limber contained six black cartridges, six solid shot, and six minister shot. The horses were passing altivrly on level ground at the time of the ezplo. slon ; and if no external application or MAW were used to cause ignition, the limber or its con tents must be in some way defective, and those in charge are constantly liable to instant death.

Mr: Bias, of New York, offered an amendment that in six months after the re.establishment of the authority of the Uoit , d States, the standing army be reduced again to the footing of the act of July, 1816.

He said it was quite evident, from the manner in which the peo ple rallied to the call of the Government, that the strength of the country was in the volunteer militte. He also wanted to make war on the har pies who are busy around the daps! tments, and wanted to save the treasure of the Government as well. from being stolen by the rebels and filched by false friends. Mr. Hzutinnir, of Maryland, wished to enter a protest against the suspension of the writ of habeas corpus by the President. He thought it entirely without wariant of law, and was not prepared to vote for the resolution in all its parts. As helm opposed to ooeroion, he could not sustain all these evraordinary measures. We must take oars not to violate the Constitution in the efforts to ars tain it. .

Mr. Ketaninr, of Maryland, said he was still more opposed to coercion now than before. They might fight for twenty years, and not reconstruct the Union. lie saw no reason for any suspension of the writ of habeas corpus. Mr. Wixom, of Massaohusetts, said the organi zation of the band of traitors in Baltimore, who murdered brave men who were going to save the country, was a sufficient justification for the Presi dent. Mr. KENNEDY replied that no man lamented more then himself the ortourrente of the 19:h of April.' It was a sudden mob, but the police sup pressed it; arid no man did more to suppress the mob and Save the soldiers than Marshal Kane.

Mr. Hamm, of Oregon, said be was willing to support the President. He was for carrying on the war till the flag of 'the Union floated everywhere, and peace was restored fully; then we should not need a large army. Mr. Ficasminan, of Maine, proposed to modify the amendment so as to read, " That, nothing here in contained shall anthorlse any permanent in crease of the army or navy," which was accepted. After a further dirctission the amendment, as modified, was agreed to. . . Mr. Foxe . , of Missouri, proceeded to speak at length in opposition to the resolution. He refer red to the momentous character and preparation. for the war, which were monstrous in their charac ter. The President,.he said, made this war, when Congress was the only power which oonid make war. He contended that the President could, by' proclamation, -create insurrection;' he the arbiter of whether insurrection existed. The Con stitution says that no, preference shall be given to States in the matter cf fevenue. yet the Pleti dent ban gone far beyend that, and blockaded the porta of several of the States. • Farther, the Presi dent had increased the army when there was no law for it. The President had also suspended the writ of habeas borpus, which even the King of 'Ragland could not do honored the Chief Jus tice of the United States for hie opposition to this assumption of authority. It is justified by the plea of necessity; but no necessity has been aboyln. Neoessity was always the tyrant's plea, all' the world over.
