FROM PHILADELPHIA.

From Our Special Correspondent
PHILADELPHIA, Saturday, June o. 1856.
The Republ cans here are active; but you can
hardly conceive Of the urgent necessity of having
some Republican daily psper universally read by
the working classer, who peculiarly in this city
constitute the immense bulk Of the population.
am in daily connection with some of the leaders of
the Republican party, AID they feel deeply the
want of such an organ for the cake of the Republic.
Some move should be made to diffuse the truth
smoDg the masses here. All they need is light.
Philadelphia may then be answered for. The
North American, large daily paper, and one Of
the most eminent journals in the country, is wide
ly taken by the mercantile and wealthy classes,
and it will do its duty msnfully in that depart
ment. But then beside that, popular organ-a

though they do not in New York lis needed to
preach Republicanism TO the people at large, TO
the men who live on wages, and have accordingly
the prOfOundest interest ia maintaining the dignity
of their status, and backing down the monster
olgsrcby which buys and sells mechanics and
labOrtrs as it does live stock, and boasts that
it will soon sell the mechanics and laborers Of the
North as il does those of the South. The Sham
Democracy carefully keep this part of the ques-
ton out Of view. Mr.. Cass, in his late harangue
at the Sham Democratic Ratification Meeting Of
this city, enlsred on the relation of master and
servant as esseI tal to liberty TOsuch fathvmless

to reconcile the radical incOmpatibility of Slave

corner stone of liberty, according TO Mr.. Cass, Mr.

No rhetoric can characterize lite selfshness, it's
