The accounts received of the progress of reorganization in the South from Southern newspapers and the Southern correspon dents of Northern journals, are of a varied and conflicting character. The subject embraces so many interests, and presents so many aspects, that it is difficult to ob tain a comprehensive view of all its bear ings, But the conclusion seems irresistible that the policy adopted by President Jour Forhas been as successful, up to this time, as the most sanguine could reasonably have expected. Among the favorable tokens may be enumerated the general feeling of submis eion to the Federal authorities, the frequent recantations of secession and pro-slavery theories, the practical recognition of eman cipation, and the determination to give free labor a fair trial. All armed opposition to the Federal Go vernment has ceased as completely as if war was an unknown art, and the marshal ling of armies an impossibility. The ma lign predictions of the perpetuation of a guerilla system have been falsified. Where disorderly, spirits seek to disturb the public peace, they are opposed and arrested as promptly by the people of the South as by our own troops_ The fact is recognized that persistence in hostilities is an offence directed immediately against the society in which it is attempted, and not against the United States Government. No plea of Southern patriotism is made to justify fur ther outbreaks. If they occur, they are regarded simply as local riots, robberies or murders, having no relation to Federal polities. We have conquered a solid and substantial peace, which, by a wise and magnanimous policy, may be rendered per petual. Although our armies have done their work thoroughly, they could of course only compel obedience to our authority,. not convince reluctant rebels of the folly and injustice of secession. The logic of the bayonet is addressed to the body, not to the mind. It controls, the acts without changing the opinions. Hence many South ern men doubtless cherish the old convic tions which precipitated the rebellion, as firmly now as ever. But there are, never theless, numerous public and open recanta tions of these heresies. A disastrous, crush ing, and overwhelming defeat is almost as fatal to a doctrine as it is to an army. We have shown that, right or wrong, seces sion is impracticable ; and the American mind is too elastic to dwell long upon exploded theories. All the active, pro gressive, and influential spirits of the South readily perceive that, for weal or woe, that region is bound indissolubly to the American union, and that they must either expatriate themselves, or submit gracefully to a power they can never destroy. Emancipation is practically recognized in every Southern community. There are not unfrequent cases of individual hardship and wrong. It seems difficult in many instances for either party to fully realize that the bond Which was formerly so po tential has suddenly been broken. We read of some old slaves who persistently deny that they have lost their masters; and the provost marshals are called upon to adjudicate complaints, some serious and others trivial, which indicate that some former slave-owners think the right of whipping their former slaves too sacred to be surrendered. But the proclamations of our Generals and 'of the Provisional Go vernors ; the efforts of the officials con nected with the Freedmen's Bureau; the frequent intervention of our soldiers;` the advice of prominent public men ; the readi ness of the negroes to assert their freedom, and the ease - with which they maintain it— have all contributed to "proclaim lilerty throughout the land, unto all its inhabi tants," so effeetttally that no general or serious attempt to enforce slavery is made anywhere. The disposition to give free labor a fair trial is daily increasing. It has succeeded in many instances much better than the experimenters anticipated. The advan tages and disadvantages of slavery are freely discussed. It is no longer a forbidden topic. Its opponents can denounce it fear lessly, and practical suggestions about the new system are not ungratefully received. We should recollect that the South has Many difficulties to contend with, and that the reorganization of her - whole industrial System is being accomplished simultaneous with her political reorganization, and with her attempts to recover from the -debili tating effects of defeat in one of the most gigantic and destructive wars ever waged. It would be much for a nation to do either of these three things in one generation. But we hope she will find in the change she most feared and dreaded, the very agency that will secure her triumph over present embarrassments and her future exaltation. Free labor should be her savior, not her destroyer—a blessing, not a curse. Already, since her citizens realize that they must resort to it, many are giving a candid con sideration to its numerous advantages. They confess that slavery was extremely unprofitable ; and since their returning paroled prisoners have reported that the war which impoverished them seemed to e nr ich the North, they are becoming con vinced that the diverse systems of labor in the two sections are in some way con nected with this diverse result. They have been forced to recognize the practical su periority of Northern civilization, and they are not slow in. attributing it ; to its true cause. Hopes of a. diversified Southern industry are springing up. Northern emigration is sincerely and earnestly solicited in many sections. The advantages of manufacturing establishments and of the development of mineral interests are dwelt upon. The freedmen are offered wages or a share of the crops for their labor. It is conceded that the owners of plantations can derive en hanced profits from free labor; and it is for cibly urged that money thus earned can be realized and expended in increasing the comforts of Southern life, instead of being perpetually locked up, as under the old sys tem, in " a few more slaves." If no new disturbing element arises in the south, prosperity will soon follow peace, and the seceding States will return to the re- Stored - Union purified and enriched by the fearful ordeal through which they will have • I ssed. TRY: WAR PnEss of this week is inte resting, as usual—filled to the brim with 'literary good things. LORD CHANCELLOR oBANIVORTII:. The office of Lord Chancellor is:of .mueh, antiquity and importance in Engl4d. The chief equity judge, he has the appointme4 of all the justices in England ; has the pa tronage of a large number of Crown livings (in the Church) ; has the supervision of all cluu•italde uses in the Kingdom ; appoints all the judges, except, the two chief, justices o f the Queen's Bench and Common Pleas, who arc nominated by the prime minister; is the general guardian of all infants, idiots, and lunatics ; is a privy councillor by his office, a member of the Governinent, and speaker Of the House of LordS; is "keeper of the Queen's conscience," a presumption derived from -the fact that even as late as the reign of JAMES 1., the Chancellor was frequently an ecclesiastic ; and, also, is su preme judge of the Court of Chancery, both as an ordinary court of common law and record and as in extraordinary court of equity. FOrmcrly his income was what he could make, which accounts for the vast fortunes amassed by Lord ELnon and others Who had held the office for many years ; but latterly there has been a fixed salary of $50,000 a year, with a life-pension of $25,- 000, on leaving office—which is always done on a change of Ministry. Four peers -BROUGHAM, ST. LEONARD'S Cmtuatss'onn, and WEsmetrity—now receive $lOO,OOO a Year as ex-Chancellors. The Chancellors of England, during the Present century, have been Lord Eroon, 1801; Lord ERMINE, 1606; Lord ELDON, again, 1807 ; Lord finiontrasr, 1827; Lord BROUGHAM 18°0 • Lord L 'IIMIURST, again, 1834; Lord COTTENHAM, 1836; Lord LYND HURST, again, 1841 ; Lord -OTTENHAM, again, 1846 ; Lord Tnuito, 1850; Lord ST. LEONARDS, 1852 ; Lord Citmiwount, 1852 ; Lord CHA7,'MfiFOI2D, 1859 ; Lord CAMPBELL, 1859 ; Lord WEB•rnonv ' 1861 ; Lord CRAN 'WORTH, -gain, 1865. Lord WESTBURY'S successor was immediately appointed. Lord CRAEWORTIR is the new Chancellor of England, and two points are gained by this appointment his pension of 25,000 as ex-Chancellor is suspended while in office, and an experienced and excel- lent Judge, in whom the bar and the pub lic have the fullest confidence, is thus placed at the head of the legal profession in England. The Chancellor is the second subject of the realm, after members of the Royal flonily, allowing precedence to the Archbishop of Cantei•hury alone. The comparative rank of both dignitaries was fixed by Act of Parliament in the reign of REnnv VIII. Lord Cnms - woirrn, son of the Rev. ED MUND ROLFE, a clergyman in Norfolk, who was first cousin of the great Lord NELSON . , and great grandson of the famous and ec centric Dr. Moicsm, physician to Chelsea Hospital, is now nearly seventy-five years old, having been born in December, 1790. Completing his education as member of Trinity College, Cambridge, Mr. RICHARD MONNEY ROLFE was seventeenth Wrangler in 18125 was called to the bar in 1816 ; was made King's Counsel after sixteen years' successful practice ; entered the House of Commons; filled the office of Solicitor Gene ral irom,,.November to December, 1834; re sumed that office in April, 1835, on the re construction of the MELBounzta Cabinet, and was made a Knight-bachelor, the usual compliment to a high law-officer of the Crown ; was appointed one of the barons of the Exchequer in 1839; was one of the Lords Commissioners of the Great Seal, on the re tirement of Lord Chancellor COTTENBAM, in June and July, 1850 ; was promoted to the office of Vice Chancellor in November, 1850, and was made a member of the Privy Council ; became a Judge of the Court of Appeal in Chancery in 1851; was ap pointed Lord Chancellor on the formation of Lord ABERDEEN'S government in De cember, 1852, and held that office until 1858, when . the Derby-Disraeli Ministry was formed. Lord PALMERSTON was much blamed by the legal profession, who had the highest opinion of and fullest confi dence in Lord CsAxwount, as an equity lawyer, because he did not reinstate him as Chancellor in July, 1859, when a new Ministry was formed. Instead of that, Lord CalirrnEnn, then nearly eighty years old, was removed from the Chief Justice sldp of the Queen's Bench to the Wool sack—from a position where his knowledge of common and - criminal lair , suitable and useful, to one where his ae knowledged ignorance of equity made him Oft-times grope in the dark, to the injury of suitors. Lord Chancellor CRANWORTIr was cre ated a peer in November, 1850, on his being appointed a Vice-Chancellor, and took his name from Cranworth, in the county of Norfolk, in - which parish he was born, and his father possessed a landed estate. He is married, but is childless, and his only brother, a navy lieutenant, died forty years ago. The Churches in Tennessee—Concluded. To the Editor of the Press: Sin: In my last, I gave you some account of the course being pursued by the former seces sionists in church matters, and their dispo sition to ignore Northern ministers, and, for the most part, ecclesiastical connection with the Northern churches. In some parts, of the State, however, there is a strong loyal element, made up in part of native loyal citizens, but more largely of immigrants from the North ; and these feel disposed, in some instances, to accept the gauntlet as thrown down by the se cessionists, and to resist the dominant rebel rule, and to refuse the ministrations Of rebel ministers. The issue between uncondi tional loyalty, entire sympathy with the ,Go vernment, and the deliverances Of the churches in the North upon the subject of slavery and treason on the one part, and of condtional loyalty, known as the " Amnesty-oath loyal ty," and sympathy with the rebellion on the other part, seems to be inevitable. The course being pursued by the " Amnesty-oath" party will certainly produce it. In most eases there are many difficulties in the way of the loyal element, getting possession of the church pro perty, which would enable them to concentrate the loyal element and rally the church around this nucleus. Wherever this can be done, it is unquestionably the best course to be pur sued, and it will strengthen not only the church, but the State, and give a Arm basis in the reorganization of society. This has been attempted in several cases in the State, and, for the most part, with the hap piest results. Perhaps the most signal success in this respect, and which is having the greatest influence in directing the loyal reli gious element in the State, is the Second Presbyterian Church of Nashville, (Rev. It. H. Allen's.) The Government having placed the loyal element of the church in possession of the church property, with the aid of the Board of Domestic Missions in Philadelphia, less than two years ago, Mr. Allen commenced to preach in this church ; and he could find but about forty persons who were willing . to own their loyalty to the Church and the Govern ment, and to come together as the nucleus of a loyal church. But, relying upon the justice of his cause and the grace of God, he went forward. He has now a membership of over one hundred; a congregation in the morning service of about eight hundred (all the house will hold;) three hundred scholars in the Sab bath-school; a homogeneous working, loyal people, who are exerting a most happy and powerful influence, by their example and en terprise, upon the loyal religious element of the entire community, and, indeed, of the State. Mr. Allen deserves the thanks of the whole religious people for his experiment, and for the ability qua zeal with which he has prosecuted his - work. :What he has done in the Second church might also be done in the First church—where an offi cer in the rebel army is officiating as a stated supply—and, indeed, I can see no other way of protecting the interests of loyal people, or of reorganizing society in the State on a loyal basis ; I can see no other means of permanent peace and prosperity, than by reconstruction of society, church, and " State machinery;" be• ginning at the foundation, and building the whole superstructure upon a loyal basis. This may seem to be impossible. It is true that it cannot be Cone in a day; it will be a work of tune, but the sooner the proper foundation is laid, the sooner the superstructure will be reared. In another letter I will give you some facts bearing 111/1111 this subject, which I trust niay be worth the con.iicleration of your readers and of Our Attei<lSTllert.

HOW THE CITY IMPROVES MARBLE-FRONT CEMETERY. MEMENTOS OF THE REVOLUTION THE BUTTON-BALL TAVERN WASHINGTON'S HEADQUARTERS. EXTRAORDINARY; FEELS OF LIGILTMO. BY " cnirs." The Fourth and Eighth streets and German town cars are yellow in color. This is neces sary to distinguish them from the Green and Coates-streets cars, both - companies occupying the same track south of Green and Coates streets. Some of the cars of each company turn up Walnut street, and others proceed as far south as Dickerson street, in the First ward. In the present sketch we shall confine ourselves to noticing prominent places on the northern portion of the route, the other part having already been exhausted in the sketch of the Green - and Coates-streets Railway, a few da3's since. Previous to the Revolution,John Bull issued an 'edict to preveilt manufactures in this eountry. The colonists, however, "couldn't see it,” and in due course of time they took the bull by the horns, and threvi him from the Pathway of progress. Since then, and more narticularly in the last quarter of a century, manufacturing establishments of every kind have sprung •up all over the land, wher ever Yankee enterprise and civilization 'were manifested. The northern part of our city presents • many kinds of manufac tories ; and, taking a couiprehensive view of the range of suchbuildings, we may liken the entire section to a vast gigantic hall of in_ duStry, where, by the sweat of toiling thou t4ends, honest label' meets with its reward, and carries with it happiness to tens of thousands of households, particularly where the laborer re. iieives a fair days' wages for his labor. A trip On the Germantown Passenger Railway will exhibit, besides magnificent rural scenes, a grand panorama of manufactories, for all pun. Poses incident to the trade of a nation. We here take occasion to say that the horse-cars for pleasure are decidedly superior to those propelled by steam; the lattai, however, being More expeditious for business. The horse-cars make no lees than one hundred and three trips daily between the d epot at Sixth and Diamond streets and Germantown, the northern part of the track extending one mile and a quarter beyond the depot of the steam-ears. ME=IITMM The scenes on Eighth street, north of Coates, consist of a variety of splendid dwelling houses, arta soon there comes before the vision of the spectator the immense piles of bricks and mortar known as the Quaker City Mills. Then, to diversify the picture, there appears ranges of brick-yards, as they are called, that is where bricks are made, many piles of which may be seen ready for the kiln. These arc in stitutions but little thought of by the people, but they form a theme for study. Bricks, until within a few years, were made by hand en tirely, but new machinery is introduced that turns the Itirgin soil into bricks at the rate of one in every second of time. Of course, with such machinery a very large supply of, the building material can always be on hand for the market. Notwithstanding the hitherto high prices, there has been a great increase in buildings, and even this will be emveeded, now that the rebellion is over, and hundreds of thousands have returned from the war to pursue more peaceful avocations. On this part of the route the country is more open, and a splendid view of scenes, in which Na ture and Art are combined, will greet the eye, and present some idea how Philadelphia im proves. The car turns down Columbia avenue to Seventh street, thence northxard to the depot at Diamond street. Mere a (Mang* of cars is necessary: Every twenty minutes, or oftener if an emergency requires, the ear for Germantown leaves the depot at the tap of a gong. The track is double, and continues out the old Germantown road to the lofty, health-invigo rating region of Mount Airy. BEAUTIFUL CHURCH BUILDING Standing on a handsome rural site, to the right of the track, above Dauphin street, will be seen a line, substantial brown-stone church building. This was erected, a few years since, AS an advance improvement in the section wherein it is located. There was more or less +ll6 hnildi.Bl anti it was finally sold for the sum of $iOD, the inemmbrances probably being heavy. P.U116 ITIVB 1.1.711.1.8 . AND AURAL SCONES Although water is conveyed in conduits to this part of the city, in some instances in ad, vane of private improvements,yet there will be observed the primitive pumps that fur nished water from ever-flowing well-spring from time immemorial. The water is clear as crystal, cool and refreshing; much better in quality than that furnished by the corpora tion to the bricked and mortared citizens of the great Republic of Philadelphia. The route here is rich and gay in cultivated fields of corn; cabbage, garlic, cauliflowers, and other specimens of vegetation. The atmos phere "smells like the country." Fine old barns impregnate the air with a pe. culler aroma, decidedly beneficial to weak. lungs. The hills beyond, and all around, pre sent a gently undulating surface; with cattle grazing on their slopes. Grass and clover are abundant. Then, again, the landscape is beau_ tilled with trees of almost every kind, such as fir, pine, cedar, oak, chestnut, walnut, birch, poplar, maple, swamp and weeping willows— seemingly piled up in luxurious magnificence —of the gay trappings of Nature , s different shades of green. We now, at a.moderate speed, descend a glade, then to rise again from the valley to higher ground, to be charmed once more with the romance of the varied seems hat attract the eye. But on we go, passing the celebrated Scott House, the resort of gay and happy parties ; and in a short time, the inn signs, with " enterMinment for man and horse" thereon, announce we are on the southern confines of ITICETOIVN, An ancient village, wherein reside some of the nicest and most patriotic people in the world. A ride through this historical place is not without its reward. The houses, as a gene ral thing, carrythe mind back to several gene-. rations ago. Many of them are substantially built of stone, that would require a lirst-ela.ss earthquake to remove them front their foun dations. Approaching the Nieetown 'Military. Hospital on this, the upper trip, let the pas. senger take a look at an old building, almost hid from view by forest trees, a quarter of a mile to the right. It was in this building, in the year ltS7, when the spirit moved William Penn to speak in the congregation. The building has had additions 'made to it, and it is not, therefore, presented in its original shape. The Military Hospital is one of the modern institutions incident to the rebellion. It is eligibly located in one Of the Choicest spots of rural felicity. This whole section of the country is studded with trees, whose spicy nature makes the air fragrant with health. The convalescent soldiers hero have a happy time. As we pass along we observe quite a number of the "brave boys," though some of them maimed for life, yet who appear cheer ful while reclining on the green sward, under the genial western breeze. Here birds are Skipping from branch to branch, amid the um brageous foliage of trees that have weathered a century of storms. it is in suck a Wake Where the tired, bed-ridden soldier may dream of battles and the " loved ones at home far away." Here the genius of peace may spread a magic wand over his green velvet Couch, and Shield him from the rude alarms of war, Here he may awake from his day slumbers to find himself still at home,-for, thanks to Providence, dry powder, and Parrott guns, the brave, good,: and self-respectful Union soldier, from what ever quarter of the country, will always find a home in Philadelphia. We leave the soldier to his dreams, and pass down a deep grade, much below the original surface of the soil. Here the track is fringed on both sides with tall cedars, as comely as those of Lebanon. The youngrobin is whistling in the branches, and the American thrush pours forth its lay to the noon-day sun. The little wren is enjoy. lug immunity amid the tall grass and fences, tree from the danger of strolling cats or reck less boys. This part of the route is really beautiful ; but in a few moments we emerge again from the deep gully, to a still higher grade, where all nature again opens and ex. Ponds into an immense bouquet of rich mag nificence. We now begin to meet with stately man. stens, palaces of repose and afiluence, rich in the developments of nature, recessing seine distance from the roadway, awl m.1.01.111(1.1 with tall i'ores.t trees, to which the tenctor ivy clings for support. In a short time we pass the southern line of Gernaantowu, and are soon Within the historical city. A company market-house will be seen to the left hand. It has a pale, brown-stone front, and it is appropriately beautified with carv ing in stone, of two bull's beads. The appear. :MCC is . neat, but the institution has not met with the success its projectors dreamed of Germantown is a rural city of "magnificent dis lanees,” with ample iresourees to obtain the luxuries and necessaries of life. VEW STORES, ETC There is a rOw of new stores and dwellings being built upon the 21Mill street, and otherS of the same kind. are projected.

The unaccustomed visitor will be sur prised at the immense number of stone walls and stone houses in this section: The mate rial used in the construction was obtained at the quarries in the vicinity, before brick making became a business in this country. some of these building have pent roofs, indi cating more of a scarcity of shingles than stone. Other stone buildings, created at a more recent date, have dollble pitched roofs, and a few ofth ern even shed roofs on their fronts and backs, with windows in the gable ends. The premises of many buildings are enclosed in stone walls, morn than a foot in thickness and ten feet in height. This is all solid ma sonry, in the rough. Machinery was not then in use to polish I;narble or to dress the stone. WAS/UNGTOPOM HBADQUARTERS—ExTRAORDI- On the western side of the track a well-built two-story rough-cast house will attract more than ordinary attention. It is neat in appear ance, and exceedingly strong in construction. The front door is flanked with plain columns, upon which rests a pediment head. This was the atylc of the sixteenth Century in Europe for mansions of the wealthy. This building may be considered a cozy retreat; and it is hallowed with the reflection that the immor tal Washington made it his headquarters in the stormy period of the Revolution. During one of the recent heavy thunder -storms, it came very near being damaged by lightning, .of which we notice a most extraordinary freak, and a thrilling incident Connected therewith. A short time since, after nightfall had set in, a most terrific thunderstorm pre- Veiled. The lightning was vivid, and great streaks of sparkling, branching fire seemed to shower down upon the historical city. An electric stream, or bolt, fresh from Jupiter's fi3rge, struck a tall sycamore tree, a short dis tance south Of the building of which we speak. Those who saw the phenomenon say that the building seemed to be bathed in liquid gold, with comaiseating spears branching all over it. A lightning rod on a dwelling adjacent at tracted some of the electricity—enough of it to prove that the rod was not properly insu lated. An inve4tigation of the effect pro duced by this streak of lightning is interesting. The bark on the northern part of the tree was stripped clear off to the width of about three inches. On the opposite side the bark appears to have been beautifully carved. The marks ore in waved lines, like the two upper sides of a triangle. There are many of these figures, extending one above the other, the entire length of the trunk of the tree. No human skill could perform such a piece of work. At the time this flash descended, a full. loaded passenger car was On-the upward trip, and within fifty yards of the spot where the bolt struck. The lady passengers screamed, the men trembled, and children hid their laces in their mother's bosoms. The passengers be came seized as with a panic, and, in less time than it takes to write about it, they scrambled their way out of the car, from senseless fear alone, and thus subjected themselves to the peltings of as pitiless a sternn as ever tracked its way into the valleys about Germantown. There were several other trees struck in that section, but none of them present as much in terest as the ono we have described. A church building occupies what was once known as the Market Square. It is opposite Washington% old headquarters. On the north ern corner of this lot, a jail was erected during the early history of Germantown; but as Phila. delphia increased in size, a more formida ble structure rendered the smaller one, on Market Square, useless. It was pulled down a number of years since. The Market-square Church is connected with the Presbyterian denomination. THE GERMANTOWN TELEGRAPH The building, in which the Germantown frelegrapA, a liebdonuidal paper, is Printed, fronts the railroad. It is rather an unpretend ing structure, so far as architectural develop ments are concerned, but its surroundings are unequivocally interesting, in the graceful ap pearance of trees and shrubbery, exotic and indigenous, which are arranged with a great degree of taste. Festoons °Mowers sway to and fro in each passing breeze, imparting to the atmosphere a delicious fragrance. Humming birds, continually on the wing, are busy in visiting these choice beauties of floral crea tion. Here an editor may recline and drink inspiration, fresh from the fountain of adorn ed and unadorned nature. How unlike the sonetion of an office in the interior of the city, where the sun lavishes down his noon rays, amid heated bricks and mortar; where he sheds his beams through unventilated sky lights, until the very brains of a city-editor seem to be in the boiling mood. What is left of the old Buttonball Tavern, that our great-grandfathers and great-grand mothers used to vieit in their younger days, will scarcely attract attention. It, will proba bly be unobserved, unless some knowing-one should point it out. The old buttonball tree still stands. It is supposed to be over two hundren years old. It evidently exhibits the .marks of time. If it could tell a tale, the pre sent generation might know something of the courtships that took place beneath its wide spreading branches over a hundred and fifty years ago. This public inn was a most fashiona ble resort for sleighing parties a century since. Then it was a pleasure to indulge in such pas times. The young men, In-ta - age_ ans., paid some regard to self-respect, and, therefore, respected the feelings of others. here mulled Wine and mulled eider passed around amid the sleighing parties, who were comfortable within the genial influences of cord-wood fires, piled up in immense fire-places. In those days there were no " roirdy" yOung men to disturb their pleasures, nor was drunken ness scarcely ever seen. The people of young Philadelphia were social, and enjoyed them selves in pleasant recreations, summer and winter, at the old Buttonball Tavern, and other public resorts in the same vicinity. The passenger will observe an exquisitely finished marble front of a cemetery, located eastward and fronting on the road. As a spe cimen of workmanship it will hear the closest inspection. In architectural design it is sym metrically beautiful, though plain in its pro portions. The story, in brief, respecting this cemetery is, that, many years since, au artist, residing in that part of the county of Phila delphia, Nvas so exceedingly poor that he gave up all hope of haling WS genius rewarded there. He departed the scenes of German town, made a tour of France, and finally set tled at Martinique, on one of the eastern islands of the West Indies. Here his genius was amply rewarded. He became immensely rich, and appropriated a portion of his means to improve the cemetery. His desire was that he should be entombed at the main entrance thereto. He died, however, before the work was completed, but his desire was fully carried out. After the completion of the wall, or front, his remains were brought from Martinique, and now they lie mouldering in the tomb, with a flat marble slab, immediately at the gateway of entrance. It seems to us that the slab forms one of several steps leading from the road to the surface of the cemetery. The Dunkard Church, - where the devout worshippers congregate to wash their feet and drink their coffee, stands alone in its primi tive. simplicity. The Fair Hill Quaker burial ground appears like an immense mound—with sodded sides extending to such a height above the grade of the road that a view of the interior cannot be seen. The bodies of the deceased, unless buried at' more than an ordinary depth, must Still be above the road surface. There will also pass in review the once famous Hunting Park Course, that a few years since was numbered with the things that were. The large baKin of the Kensington Water Works, to the eastward or the road, will also eounnanci the attention of the observant pabsenger. The Old Rising Sun Hotel still stands in its ancient glory, though the immense business of its former days has departed. It yet forms a pleasant stopping-place for parties indulging in a drive through that section. The ground is very high in the vicinity of the Rising Sun, and from such an eminence a splendid view of the city may be had. The route from this place to the built-up portions Of Philadelphia present many entertaining views, worthy of the photographic art. Seventh street has been opened to Germantown road, and at this intersection the car turns off, and in a few mo ments reaches the depot. Running time from Mount Airy to depot, fifty-two minutes. A change of ears is necessary, and immediately upon the arrival of the passengers from Ger• nmutown, two taps on a big gong is the signal for starting, and away the ear goes down the avenue, thence into Fourth street to the southern limits of the city. The only two buildings worthy of especial notice are the Cohoeksink Methodist Church, and the spa cious hall of the United American Mechanics, that front on the track of the road. Both these buildings are modern structures, and are well proportioned. Thus we close our hasty sketch of us pleasant a ride as we have had on any of the local routes of Philadelphia. A SOUTH.E.itiv correspondent or the New olieuns Pioavune, writing from Georgia, thus describes a preacher he there saw: After throwing his eyes around the house in a threatening manner, lineament with "Ohyou misera ble sinners," ex.pressed in every of his round face, lie went on in a serious voice : c; M y brethren, in order to cheek all idle curi osity, I will state that my name is Elijah Brow ser, from Jessymine comity, Kiutnek, [sniffle,] and I'm free to confess, without fear of sue et,gsfal contradiction, and I'm here to-day to say, and it will at once odour to every intern gent mid reflecting mind, when I make bold to tell you that I have been preachin , now party nigh *Ville on three year, and on an average of ihe hundred sermons a year; that I have preached to the spiel's, to the minus, to the ortlns [sniffle], to the niggers, and to the wood-choppers of county; but never, no never, [blubber,] has 1 seed in all that time So ill-mannered, ro sinful t and delyavell, and devil-hugging a congregation as this one her, sittiu , Wore inc to-day; and I want tb tell the young men and women a sittin' batik there a„, ,, in the inelojun, that comes here a courtin , and a flirtitt , and a Bassin' of notes round the melojun, and a laihn , , and a gigglin , , and a in the face of Providence, that the laws of the State throws around me certain protec tion, and I am goin , to have it.

ItARENT SQUARS TTIE DIITTONIIALL TAVERN MARBLE-FRONT ON3XETERY PROMISCUOUS JOTTINGS THE CITY. • CAMP CADWA.. LADBR AND OUR RE *roman Sormans.--NO city in this Union has ever givens warmer' welcome to soldiers de parting from, or arriving here, than this, our good old city of Brotherly Love. In the mid hours of night, ladies have awakened and left their couches to administer to their wants. The wounded have been eompasionated with and, in short, nothing has been left undone to tender most kindly to their necessities. It is a delicate subject, perhaps, for us to dilate upon, but at this Mitten seems that something should be said, yport..the occurrences of the past few days. OW*. Cadwalader for some days past has been likened unto a pandemonium. Regiment uponioginient has arrived and been quartered there.' Some of these men consider that they have been .mustered out of service, and dc. mand their, ;pay instantly. No good soldier is thus exacting, but then there are those who forget military discipline, and will not await even until the rolls aremade out. Do not some of these men, brave as they may have been in the three years' service, recollect that this Government might have held them to the full expiration of their terms The leniency that the Government has bestowed upon them should be, and, we are glad to say, is appreciam tea. by many of the soldiers. The brutal attacks made upon the garrison troops have not been noticed heretofore, in the newspapers of this city. Many a brave fellow, who has faithfully served his country, has been cut down because some fiend gave him liquor, which drove him to desperation. On the otherhand the garrison guards, equally as brave as those who opnosed them, have met with serious wounds. TILE 7Trf RKGIMENT HANCOCK'S COurs: —The soldiers of the 7th Regiment, Haneoek's Corps, have been quartered at Camp Cadwala der for garrison duty. It was amusing, when they marched up Ridge avenue, to listen to the comments of the women. One lady said: "Oh, pshaw ! them ain't no soldiers; look at their new flags and new uniforms I" This ex pression was carelessly made, but little did she who uttered it think of the feelings of many ladies present who recognized among these brave fellows those who went as boSom friends of 'their husbands, fathers, and sons, who were slain in the war. The old Pennsylvania Reserves, who held that rocky ground at Gettysburg, amid the murderous lire of the veteran rebels, who thought they were lighting 'militiamen, and were not fully apprised of their mistake until the cold steel of Pennsylvania boys met them, and then in dismay they fell back, crying "These are the Reserves, and not militia!" Men who represented other States, and fought bravely in many engagements, are with this regiment - ; in short, no man but he who has fought three years wears the charm of honor. They are sent here as soldiers, and as such will obey their orders to the letter, with out fear or affection. To obey their orders will be but to uphold the Government ; and, of course, these brave men will exercise mercy in the discharge of their onerous duties. THE AMBuwaccEs.—The sol diers who have been wounded, and dragged over corduroy roads and miserable slush-pools from the fields that they have bravely fought over, in what are called United States ambu lances, express great surprise when they are lifted into our firemen's ambulances and taken to their respective destinations. The United States Government never haveneglected their patriotic sons, hut in some instances a conflict Of orders, or red-tapeism, has occasioned some delay in the transportation of brave and suffer ing men to hospitals. Our citizens, with a view of remedying this defect, and alleviating the condition of the martyrs to their country's cause, established a hospital opposite to the only depot - where the brave fellows could be landed. There kind ladies and humane men ministered to their wants until the firemen gently placed them into their ambulances and cautiously deposited thorn inn bed inthe hos pital. Chief Engineer Lyle is frequently called upon to furnish ambulances to remove sick and wounded soldiers, when. it is not really necessary. The Government ambulances are in ninny cases sufficient; but, just think of an old Philadelphia hreman arriving after three years' service, and finding an ambulance with the name of the old company emblazoned upon it ! The moment he is lifted into it by his old fire companions the lethargic leaves him; and no doctor in Philadelphia, famous as OUP good city is for medical service, can ac complish by nostrums what the fire ambu lance has done. These ambulances have been an institution of Philadelphia, and well may our citizens be proud of them, "Knock, and it shall be opened unto you," says holy writ, and that is just the ease with our fire-engine houses. Any manner of suffering is alleviated by them, and it in universal with all of them. Gar soldiers are nearly all home, but is there neta necessity:to keep up the ambulance sys tem? Let us cite aniinstance. Yesterday, a pretty child, twelve years of age, was kindly talking to a little one near her, when a train of cars backed down and struck her in the leg, causing a very painful wound. A. noble fellow, who witnessed the occurrence, ran for the Globe Engine ambulance; and in a few mi nutes; kind-hearted men lifted her into it, and she was soon placed under the care of the skilful physicians of the Pennsylvania Hos pital. Now, what a difference to the old-time Manner of performing such things It was, that a crowd would gather around, look., syni athize, and some women might cry; a few men might get a settee and after hours of agony get, the patient to the hospital; and, mayhaps, find it was dead when they arrived there. The ambulance system does away with this style, and it is as gentle as expeditious. TILE TWENTY-EIGHTH AND TWENTY- SilliTTL—We learn by a telegram received yes terday from acting Quartermaster J. 0. Peer ing, of the 2Sth Regiment P. V., that transpor tation has been secured for that and the 29th Regiment. The regiments will leave Wash ington at about 1 o'clock to-clay. They are ex pected to reach Philadelphia at 4 o'clock to morrow morning. These regiments belonged to the "White Star , ' Division, The 29th is the one that planted the Stars and Stripes on Lookout Mountain ; and the 28th is the regi ment that captured the first cannon from the rebel horde. STILL THE BOYS ARE MARatince, HOME warup.—Yesterday morning, the gallant 95th Pennsylvania reached the Cooper shop, where they were bapaCial guests, There were Ave hundred and seventy-five enlisted men and twenty-seven officers. After partaking of a sumptuous breakfast, they took up the line of march and proceeded to Camp Cadwalader. Their appearance at the saloon and on the "tramp," awakened a great deal of enthuai-. WILL Yesterday afternoon, the sth New York Cavalry, five hundred and seventeen enlisted men and. forty-two °liners, reached the sa loons, and were equally divided between them. When we left those celebrated. institutions last evening, the 6th New York Artillery, one thousand and sixty-one men, wore ex pected to arrive some time in the night. We were informed that about six-thousand soldiers en route between Washington and Philadelphia, may be expected to arrive within a few days. In the meantime voluntary contributions are solicited to keep the saloons in full use. GRAND GERMAN FESTIVAL AT NNW YORK —PHILADELPHIA CITA3IPIONSHIP.—A telegram was received last evening from New York that awakened an unusual degree of excitement among our good-natured, enthusiastic, and impulsive German citizens, particularly those residing in the upper section of the city. It seems that the prizes, consisting of a hand some silver goblet and a beautiful banner, were awarded to the Philadelphia Samger bend and Mannerehor Societies. The grand trial concert was held on Tuesday night, and was attended by en immense audience of the Most intelligent music-loving people, ama, tears and professional musicians. The midi , enee paid the closest attention to the entire Performance, and it was there the generally expressed opinion that the prizes lay between Dull - WO and Philadelphia. Give Philadelphia a " fair shake" at anything—for loyalty and patriotism, mechanics, professions, general intelligence, music, and all the arts, base ball, cricket, ac.—and she will always hear away the palm. Philadelphia for beauty, wealth, law and order, stands highest among the cities of the world. The Germans may wen feel proud of their musical triumph at the New York concert. PATRIOTICALLY NAMED.—The barges Feinandina and James L. Davis, recently pur chased at Government sale, by Messrs.

Information was lodged at the Central Sta. tion last evening of an instance in which a man robbed his benefactor of the swum ,of $3OO. The loser is John Walker, who keeps a store on Coates street, above Fourteenth. It seems that about four weeks since a returned sol dier, who belonged to the 97d Regiment New York Volunteers, was received at the residence of Mr. W., until such times as he might dad employment. Last evening, during the ab sence of Mr. Walker, the ingrate stele three hundred dollars from a small box. in the closet, and took his departure with the funds for parts unknown. It was a heartless robbery. [Before Mr. Alderman Beitler.] AN IMPORTED TH/Er. A German named August John was before Aid. Bender yesterday, upon the charge of being one of the party that has visited the houses in the rural districts, and stolen therefrom quan tities of silverware. A number of articles with the names of their owners engraved upon them are at the Mayor's office. [Before Mr. Alderman Balder.] /T WAS TRACED. A sailor sojourning along the river front met with one Catharine McGowan, who re lieVed him of his watch. The police of the Fifth ward were notified, and the consequence was that one William Reilly was arresod, upon whose person was found the watch. Catharine and William were sent to Moya mousing to answer the charge. (Before Mr. Alderman Massey.] AN INCORRIGIBLE REPROBATE. Some years since a boy, calling himself Wm. Davis, was sent to the House of Refuge. The managers of this institution turned him over to Mayor Henry, Saying that they could not keep such a boy as,ho was. Now, this put his Honor in a quandary, and suggested to his mind whether or not the House of Refuge was intended for good or bad boys. If for good boys, he could well see how the boy Davis was excluded, but if lie was a bad boy, he thought R that the efuge should have kept him. The Mayor, with his usual generosity, turned the boy over to Lieutenant Harry White to retain until he could examine into his case. The Lieutenant, who 18 MO major domo of the old Spring Garden District, treated the boy with all possible kindness, and finally let him loose. What was his surprise may be imagined when he upon whom he had devoted so much kind ness, appeared before him yesterday upon the charge of attempting to commit a larceny. A boy that was too bad to be kept in the Douse of Refuge cannot be expected to be a good member of society ; hence Alderman Massey sent him below in default of $lOO bail. [Mcfore Mr. Alderman PIWI.] A LITTLE BEYOND THE TRAMP No one, we opine, will object to the tramp of the brave soldiers who have so nobly vindi cated the cause of their country, but, then, there are a few who drive through the streets in a reckless manner, regardless of the lives of pedestrians. Soldiers have not met with the beautiful and elegantly dressed little Children in their tramps that the pretty city of Philadelphia produces, but they should recollect that many of: their compatriots in arms have these little ones about their pre mises, and should drive slowly. We will not give the names of some who were arrested yesterday, because it might reach the ears of their mothers and sisters, who would natu rally ask: " Oh, why' did you jeopardize the lives of poor children?"

The Grand Jury came into court yesterday, anti made their final preseatineat as follows : .21 , the Honorable Yudges of the Court of Oyer and. Terminer and Quarter Sessions for the city and county of .Philadelphia The Grand Inquest of the Commonwealth Of Pennsylvania, inquiring for the city of pima delplua, for June sessions, 1805, respectfully Present that they have, to the best of their ability discharged altlmsiness brought before them. They have acted upon 080 bills, of width 251 have been ignored, and 401 have been re turned as true bills. The Grand Jury have, during their session, visited the Ahnhouse, County Prison, House of Refuge, and Eastern Penitentiary. They were highly gratified with the evidence of general efficiency in the mann. =Lent of all these institutions. The good order and clean liness observable throughout are sufficient guarantee of the competency and fidelity of those having charge of the various depart ments. The Grand Jury recommend, as a number of the Grand Juries have previously done, the necessity of a House of Correction and Em. plop:tient, believing it would have a tendency to diminish crime. The Grand Jury take great pleasure in tendering their thanks to the officers in at tendance for their gentletnatily deportment and promptness in all matters pertaining to their position. Judge Allison complimented the Grand Jury upon the faithful manner in which they had discharged their duties, and dismissed them from further attendance ou the Court.

EPPNOT OP THE WEIRDO IN THE MINEit9-PORTY- FIVE THOUSAND TONS OF COAL 502.11, • The New York Post of last evening - says: The auction sales of coal to-day were to have comprised not far from 100,000 tons. The Penn sylvania Coal Company proposed to sell from 204000 to 60,000 tons, and the Delaware, Lacka witna, and Western Railroad Company, 50,000 tons, being the whole of their estimated re ceipts for the month of Afigust.

One young man who was pay ing attention to a respectable girl, found out that she was often absent from home, and it was rumored among the old ladies 'neat' by that She was probably a visitor at the " Freb• Love Circle," mat that a young man who owned a fast team was often. seen on. the road (late at night) leading to the house where the circle held its sessions. On Thursday evening' last, a number of young men were determined to take sonic of the visitors at the circle by surprise., and stop the young girl from meeting the fast young man at the circle. Tey visited the premises, and hid behind a barn, near the house, and at about 11 o'clock the couple were seen to come - from the house and getinto a buggy, when the" surpise party" made a rush for the team, unharnessed the horse from the carriage, placed the young mall upon his bare back, and made hint ride a dis =lee of some two miles to the •outskirts of the town, where he resided.

SM./mettles IDEA OF IT.-Editor of Press: Your passenger railway sketches induced me to take a few rides on some of the roads to observe things for myself. Allow me to ex press, through your columns, my delight and astonishment at the marks of improvemon and progress everywhere perceptible in and about your city. Returning to it on a brief visit, after nearly four years , absence, I find myself an utter stranger in places which wore formerly familiar to me, so great has been the change wrought by the advancing spirit of the age.. Imposing business edifices and stately mansions now stand upon ground not long since either entirely vacant or occupied by inferior Structures. Around Girard avenue, buildings have gone up eeemlngly by magic—some of a superior order of architecture, surrounded by yards and gardens filled 'with beautiful flowers and choice shrubbery. And, then, passing away from. the various Squares —now in their glory—to Fairmount, evidences of "progress' are witnessed still more palpable and wonder fah I no knowledge of a place of resort in our country where a fewhoursmay he spent more. pleas.antly and satgfaetorily.

Passing on to Laurel 11111, beauties Of Art and Nature strike the eye of the beholder with peculiar force, and inspire feelings of mingled pleasure and solemnity.

The stock market exhibits_ no signs of im provement, nor would it be reasonable to ex pect any activity while so many business men are Out of town, and with the indisposition on the part of those who remain to do anything for the present beyond what present necessi ties require. The market, however, is not to say in a state of stagnation , as is generally the case at this period of the year, and the few sales making are at ilrm, quotations. Govern ment loans attract a good share of attention; the five-twenties at 105, and the Ms at 107%; there was nothing said in the ten-forties. State securities are inactive and dull ; a sale of cou pon lives was reported at 92. There is a mode rate movement in city sixes, with free sales of municipal and new at 9234—a slight advance ; the old are steady at about 90 1 4 The railroad share list was rather weak; Reading closed steady at 50; Pennsylvania Railroad declined I A, and Camden and Amboy I ,4,—the latter sell ing at 1`2934; Northern Central sold at 43%. Company bonds continue very dull, the sales being confined to Elmira lives at 72, and Le high sixes of 'Si ot ; a lot of Allegheny county coupon 'ayes sold at 723. Canal stocks continuo very ; Wyoming Valley sold at 55; there were no other canal stocks disposed of. Of the coal stocks there were further sales of Fulton at 534, and Big Mountain at 4R 3 '. The oil stocks are still very much depressed, and prices weak. The conduct of some Southern merchants in coming promptly forward to pay old de.bts off, contracted before ;the rebellion, is frequently mentioned in Northern papers. Several in stances of the kind have occurred in this city. At Boston, it is also said, several traders from Virginia are searching for their creditors. One of these, who was indebted to a merchant $l,OOO, paid the amount in gold with interest. Another paid $3,000, and other sums of greater amounts, all In gold. In every case the dealers contend that the debts were contracted upon a specie basis, and should be settled upon the same. New business relations with the South are becoming quite common, and many old associations are being renewed from day to day. There is quite a brisk demand for cloth ing, household furniture, and agricultural implements from Virginia and North Caro. ling. Southern business men say that there are many millions of gold stowed away in the cotton States, which, when order is estab lished, will be brought into circulation.

They are literally stocked with gold, silver, precious stones, marble, gypsum, salt, tin, quicksilver, agpluiltum, coal, iron, copper, and lead ; asking only for an amount of labor relatively equal to 'that expended on California, to yield four hundred millions per annum in gold and silver alone, and in the other minerals, which will be: mined as soon RS transportation is provided, at least iialf that SUM. These results 'are not merely in the possible of the far off future, but they arc near enough to answer the exigencies of the present generation. Apopulation of thirty millions, which, during the last half century, has doubled its numbers every twenty-three and a half years, with all the industrial en ginery and apparatus of the age at command, animated by the spirit of adventure and spurred by the faith and hope which work wonders, will be found sufficient for the iteldereMent of still greater things than the most sanguine persons venture to medial. Even the States called the older, in the last census decade, increased their wealth vastly more in amount and but little less in per cent age than the comparatively new ones. Ohio, first settled seventy-seven years ago; appreci ated 130 per Cent.; but Now Jersey and Connec ticut, both two centuries under culture, en- Inmeed their wealth in as great proportion in the same time, and Pennsylvania made au in crease of 00 per cent. upon her large capital of $72:1,000,000.
