WasttifJOToa Hocsa, 1 Philadelphia, June 2s, J8C1. f ) x This great city, like all others, is at a Stand still point Io regard to its business operations. Tha' wholesale dealori ara doing but very little, tod art not, apparently, aver anxious to do even that. Tbey do. cot expect In make anything this year, and most of them woold ba well satisfied if they clear tboir expenses. Tba retail stores ara the only places where tbera . is any. appearance of business. Tha manufactories are mostly sus pended, and many arc on' half time. Goods are necessarily cheap, as a general thing, but many articles have gone op, especially Son. thero productions. Tha war feeling her Is mocb as with us. There ara but few Southerners visiting bere oovaa1thoogh some occasionally make their appearance, as many ara connected with resi dent! North io business operations. This city Is not free from Secessionists, not open Secessionists, of course, as it would not be deemed either pleasant or prudent to avow these doctrines. All are therefore Unionists. But after all, what ara Northern Unionists with Southern sympathies, bat Secessionists, only waiting a favorable opportunity to declare tbeir opinions openly T Such was tbe course of tbe lories of tha Revolution, few of whom were williog to avow themselves as such. 1 bad a conversation last evening with an old friend, a Southern gentlemao, who bas resided here the last twenty years. He was formerly a Henry Clay whig, and at tbje last election 'a Breckinridge man, and now sustains tha South io all tbeir actions, and yet be would not be willing to be callud a Secessionist. History will, however, assign to all these individuals their proper position. Politicians are in mocb the same position as with us. The old party backs, who have been accustomed to divide tbe offices among themselves and to dictate to the people bow they should vote, under the penalty of being denounced, find that tbe people look with distrust upon office hunters, who, as a general thing, are not tbe best of patriots, and not onfrequently doubtful Democrats, though always loud mouthed in tbeir professions. Tbe proposition now before tbe Councils in regard to tbe leasing, or in effect the sale, of tbe Sunbory & Erie Railroad to the Pennsyl. vaoia Central, for a period of 999 years, is looked upoo with distrust by some who are interested in the Readiog and other roads, which may be affected by discriminating tolls in favor of tbeir own company. A. K. Kapp, of Northumberland, is here purchasing horses for the Army. He par cbased forty Cva to-duy, which will be ship ped, he says, tomorrow, for Wcehington Dull times and tbe scarcity of money baa brought down prices of horses. As mocb bas been said about sold.icra clothing, I examined a large lot of overcoats, just foroisbed by that enterprising firm, Rockhill L Wilson. Lilie everything thot comes outof their elegant establishment, they will bear the test of examination. They fur nisbed three regiments in ten days. 65- Col. Ilendrick B. Wright, of Wilkes barre, has been nominated by tbe Democratic and Republican conventions as a Union candidate for Congies fn that district, to fill tho vacancy occasioned by the death of lion, George V. Scranton. Col. V." right, in a letter of occeptPDca to the Republican con vention, lays : "Our brethren are io arms, exposed to the toils, privationo and hardships of the camp. Tbey are niuviog steadily oo iu the diechargn of the great duty they have voluntarily assumed. They are doing battle for tho very life-blood of tbe Republic, united as a baud of brothers in the ueleoce or tbe constitution and tbe laws. Is there any reason why we, enjoying the quiet of comfortable homes, should encage in either personal or political strife? Our divisions would be pnt a poor example, indeed, to tbeir uoion end good fellowship in tbe held I 11 Ibera ever was a time when tha bickerings of party should cease, it is now. But one seutiuient should occupy the mind of the loyal people of this Uoion, aod that tbe great aud absorbing thought of preserving tbo integrity of tho government aod the crushing out of rebel lion." J3T Hon. Ilendrick B. Wright, waa on Satur day last, elected to Congress from tba 12tb dis trict, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the death of lien. George W. Scranton. He had no op position. Mr. Wright ia a democrat, hut being an uncompromising Union man, and in favor of sustaining the Administration against the South ern rebels, the Republicans of the district declined to make a nomination against him. ireiecH or er.i. i-mr cameho.i.

Id response to the toast of Colonel Forney aod that of tba President, General Cameron rose aod said j , Mr. Prksidknt and Grnti.exrs ofthk St. Andrew's Sociktt, and or thr Skventt- ninth Regiment ti thank yoo for the cor diul manner io which you have greeted the toast in my honor. Sometimes the compli nie.ots oi onr inenas, nowever sincere, are apt to be embarrassing, bat it may be that my Inena, colonel Jforneybasa ngbt to speak for me. IUa ancestors were tbe oppo nents of a harsh, tyrannical aristocracy in the lowlands of ooa nationality, while mine were fighting for freedom and the right in the highlands of another. Great applause.! Our forefathers came to these shores about the same lime, and settled io the same region even in the good old county of Lancaster, in tbe State of Pennsylvania. When tbe tpost for the Secretary of War was proposed, 1 bad fur a moment almost forgotten, io the midst of this pleasant com pany that it bore any allusion to me, and particularly when l icottea to my lett opoo tho form and face of my venerable friend, Col.

Applause. But bere I am, amid all tbe recollections of other days, end all tbe solemnity of coming events, to join bunds with you io paying this spon taneous tribute to our beloved country. Applause. While 1 thank yoa for your toast to me, I caonot but admire the devo tion you evince for the glorious land of yonr adoption. You represent all tbe clans of old Scotia clans which, at various times, have been divided at home by fierce politiccl and religious feuds, uod yet, iu this country, you have uciled as one man to fight iu the holiest cause that ever excited the enthusiasm of a great people.

It seems that for our Regiment there is nothing to be done but being driven from one Brigade to another! how ufien it has been done I have not taken time to count. There is some consolation to the hoys, however, to know that we are near the enemy and may have a chance for a fracas, and that they are lo be commanded by ao noble a man aa Gen. A ber et ombie, late Colonel of the 9th U. 8. Infantry. We are lying in Camp in a perfect atate of laziness as regards lighting since our march on W illiamsport the enemy have let ua alone, our fellows hare had a pretty good chance for drill, and they have been kept steadily at it ton, It is mighty hard work, with the thermometer at 103 in tho sun. The bovs stand it well, perfectly satisfied, and are getting fat, particularly on the pork and crackers. J he W isconsin Kegiment, in the same brigade with ua, is a crack one, splendidly drilled, and by the way are kept harder at work than ours. Their Colonel is a gentleman, a well drilled soldier, and I believe a graduate of West Point. To show the love ef his men for him, on leaving Camp McC'lure, Cbaiohershurg, tbe Regiment being in full line, preparatory to leaving, lie asked if they would light for the '-Star fpangled Banner," and die for it and him, the whole Regiment to a man fell on their knees and swore they would fight for tho fl.ii-;, protect him and die if necessary. In the action of such men, headed by Col. Starkweather, there nerd be no appre hensions as to the success of our cause. Yesterday (Sabbath) about 4 o'clock in the af ternoi-n, I heard some sweet sounds of music thought the air familiar, went out ol my tent to listen to it and was most agreeably surprised to hear Hint good old tjne "Coronation" being played by tho Wisconsin Band.

The 85th an niversary of American Independence will be celebrated in this place, oa next Thursday, by a civio aod military parade. Military Com. panies, Fire Companies, Societies, tbe Militia and the citizens generally in every part of the county are inviud aud earnestly urged lo unite with us io a grand demonstration of re joicing. The Fourth of July, 1SGI, may be almost as memorable as was tbe Fourth of July, 1776. Oa tbat now hallowed day, the representatives thirteen colonies met to establish tbeir iode peodence; on Thursday tbeir children will meet to preserve it. Io 177C an experiment was instituted, io 1BC1 tbat experiment will he finally tested. Tbe problem before our fathers was, 'can a people unite for tbe preser vation of the general welfare without tba ad juuctg of royalty aud power t The problem to-day is, can these people thus united muio tain their nationality and preserve tbeir iosli. titions from tho ir.Bidioos treason of their own members t In 1776 the arbiter was tbe sword. To tbe same awful tribuoal we appeal in 18C1. Then let us all, realizing tbe perils of tbe pres ent crisis, lay &ide all strifes of party all dif ferences of creed and faith ell disagreements political and social, and, with one consent, re' sclve tbat on the Fourth of July, 16G1, we ill help to strengthen and cheer tbe hearts, aud hold op tha bands of our brava couutry. noeo, who, imitating tbeir patriotic fathers, ara in the field ,a arms battling to preserve, onsul lied, whole and compact, the sacred Charter of Freedom acd tbe magnificent fabric of Gov eromeot which tha same bouored fathers of tba Republic formed and gave to us in 177S. CJr Latest Nkws. Tba U. S. steamer Monticello having lauded a small reconnoit ring party at the month of tbe Rappahannock river, a party of about 50 rebels attacked tbem, killing one and woundiog eight. Oo the side of tbe rebels several were seen to full and a brick bouse wag battered down. The gunboat Quaker City attacked a rebel troop of borse, killing five men aod wounded save ral others. A fishing party of five from Fortress Monroe, were fired upon near Sew all's Point and three of them killed. At three o'clock on Thursday morning, George P. Kane, Marshal of Police, in the city of Balti more, was arrested at his house, by order of Gen. Banks, and conveyed to Fort McHtnry, where he is now held a prUoner. Gen. Banks issued a proclamation naming John A, Kenly, of the Maryland regiment, as Provost Maishal, superceding also the poweis of the police commissioners, who is tj exercise supreme control over the department, until some known loyal citizen is appointed to act aa marshal. The proclamation gives aa a reason for the arrest of Kane, that he is known to be aiding and abetting those in armed rebellion to the govern merit, at the head of an armed force, which he used to conceal rather than detect acta of treason to the government.

After wailing until 7 o'clock we were marched j to the cars and embarked for Camp McClure, 1,1.: i I l: via uuuunure aim usrniuurs. iu inarcuiuir Wc have j through Baltimore we had no trouble, they supposing from our dress we wore regulars. There was one expression oT hostility, how ever, and that was by ao old termagant, wbo openod ber door, displaying a Secession Bag, and making mouths at us, but our boys paid no altontion to ber. Happily no one saw her but our company, or tbera would bava been trouble. Id passing through tha city I saw something tbat done a soldier good a 7U( mutde to resemble tbe American flag, and on it tbe "proud bird of liberty," besides tbe Maryland coat of arms. It wag tba prettiest pieca of work, of tbe kind, I ever saw. When our boys saw it tbry could not restrain tbeir feelings, aod gave to mat proud emblem auco hearty cheers as to fairly make tba streets ring aod Secessionists tremble. When we arrived at Bolton statioo tbere was aome deloy, and a gentleman, a strong Union man, showed bis bounty by liberally supplying our regiment with fresh bread and good batter, that is. aa many as could get into tbe bouse. H was, after a pretty bard march, very ac ceptable, aod our boys, to use tbe expression of an old friend, wore "too full for expression" hot spirits, but thanks. W ben wa arrived at Harrisburg wa changed eogines, and after tedious ride arrived at Cbambersburg at 2 o'clock next morning. Yoo bava beard of the fellow, io aleepiug, "bunting for tba soft side of a plank," so it wag with us. Our cars were those used for tba transportation of cattle, aod being too late to march to camp, made tbe beat of it, and alept very soundly, so mocb ao tbat your bumble servant, in sleeping, dreaming of home, gave a kick, aod for bis pains fell off tba bench and received a black eye. At breakfast time tbera wag nothiug lor us to eat, and some of onr boys, getting used to tbe "tricks oflrade," strayed about town, and io their walk were invited in and hospitably entertained by aoma of the citizens for myself 1 bad the extreme plea sure of broakfastiog with W. G. Reed, Esq., cashier of tba Cbambersburg Baok, a very fine gentleman, wbo baa my heartiest thanks aud warmest wishes. Wa were then marched into camp, fixed cur tents, aod after four days hard drilling were ordered to Hagerstowo. Oo last Moo day. 3 A. M., wa again struck our tents aod arrived bere about B o'clock. Oo our way down wa were agreeably surpiised at a email place, Greeocastle, eleven miles below Cham bersburg. It ia a place to take io water, we stopped about five minutes, wheo wa were 'co-npletely stormed with eatables, supplied by tba ladies of tbat place. One could hear tbe rest of our regitneot shooting "a second Suoburv." "three cheers for tha ladies of Greeocastle. besides a "tiger" for those of our place. I tell yon tba ladieg of Suubury and Ureencastla ara held la bigb esliioatiou by tha "bloody llth." Yesterday morning, at 3 o'clock, onr Bri gade, noder command of Geo.Nagle, were hurriedly marched to Williamsport, Md., about seven miles below, a maaaaoger baying arrived with a despatch staliug tbat tba rebels, soma 15.000 strong, were about to attack tba Faderal forcas stationed tbera. Tbera wag oath In support the Constitution and the t'nion and then let him depart in peace. The fellow was most awfully frightened. Yesterday there was one taken with better grit -the t'orporsl of the Guard took him to the guard bourn. When asked his business he gave saucy and very im perfect answers, and swore awfully ha would never take the oath af allegiance to the United tstutes. He was ttieu taken lo Gen. Patterson's quaiters, under guard, but what was done with him I have not heard. If. I bad the sentence to pats on him it woulJ ba "to dance on nothing, with a rope around his neck, and no fiddler tc play the tune, hanging. There waa considerable fun In our company on last Saturday night. A fire occurred iu the town right opposite our quarters. The bovs couldn't get out, and they had an impromptu running of their own. The crv was "down on her Gnodie," "hi, hi " "pasa tbe Washy," now she brings her," "that's tho way, old boy," and then put her back in "the house." I tell you we had a high old time, and Col.
