There will be no delay in the organization of

Message will be thereupon sent to both houses and

reading it will be telegraphed to this CITY, and as
soon as it has been received in full we shall pub.

THE SITUATION.

Affairs on the Potomac do not assume any i'm
portant character. For some days past the rebel
pcsets have been showing themselves about Vienna
and Flint Hill, overlooking Fairfax Court House.
making their appearance by day and retiring at
night No collision, however, has occurred be-
tween them and our troops.
Nothing further from Fort Pickcns has reached
us, nor do we expect any authentic report of the
fsht in that quarter for a day or two, when the
Connecticut will be due, with official reports to
the Navy Department at Washington.
From Missouri, Kentucky or Western Virginia
we have nothing new to report within the last
twenty-four hours concerning the movements of
our armies. The Third Ohio regiment, which went
into service in Western Virginia on June !, under
Gen. Mcclellan, arrived at Louisville, KY, on the
9th ult. from Cheat Mountain. They had been
paid in full. and on their way down the Ohio river
they were met by quartcrmaster who had new
uniforms for every man. They say they have been
rewarded for all their hardships and are now
ready for onward moveme mt towards the rebel
camp.
A resolution was introduced in the Kentucky
House of Representatives on the 9th ult., requr-
ing all the able bodied male citizens of the State
between the ages of eighteen and forty.fve, except
ministers. TO immediately enrol themselves and
form military companies, for the purpose of expell.
ing the rebel invaders from the soil of Kentucky.
Another valuable prize arrived at the Brooklyn
Navy Yard yesterday, which was captured after
three hours chase, the 18th ut., by the steamer
Penguin, while heading for Edisto Island, near
Charleston, s. c. She proved to be the schooner
Albion from Nassau, New Providence, laden with
cargo worth 500, OOO consisting of salt, OIL tin,
fruit. and also the suspicious articles of arms,
ammunition, saddles end cavalry equipments, Of
considerable importance to the rebels just now
When brought to by the Penguin's guns she re-
ported herself bound for New York, from Nassau,
with fruit and salt; but upon searching her the
aidrsonal cargo Of contraband of war was found
on board The officers turn out to be citizens of
Savannah.
South today, we give account from Savannah,
published in a Richmond paper, to the effect that
on the 10Th ultmo Commodore Tatnall, with three
small rebel steamers and one gunboat, attacked
the Union ieet in Cockspur Roads The engage
ment lasted one hour, and from forty to fifty shots
were exchanged.
This account states that falling to draw the foo.
under the guns OF Fort Pulaski Commodore Tat.
nall withdrew, and that there are now six large
vessels inside the bar, and one large frigate was
tcwed over the day previous
II il further stated by dispatches from Savannah
that the Uuion forces had taken possession Of
Warsaw, and that they are preparing to attack
Cart Pulaski.

The Work OF CoNGREss.-Congress meets
to-day. Never, since the days Of the Revolu-
ton, has the Congress of the United States met
at more critical epoch. 1t is no stretch of the
fancy to say that the eyes of the whole country
and Of the civilized world will be fixed upon its
deliberations; and yet perhaps Congress will
have little more to do than to strengthen and
uphold the hands of the administration in the
great struggle in which the country is engaged.
Questions incident to the war will inevitably
have to be passed upon by it. First Of these is
the question OF how to deal with the slaves OF
the rebels. Our views have been clearly ex-
pressed on that point. and we are pleased to
think that they are also the views of the admins
traton. This war is carried on by lis neither
to strengthen nor weaken the institution of do
nestle slavery, hut to uphold the constitution
and government OF our fathers The slaves of
rebels who fall into our hands should be either
employed by the government in their appro-
pirate fields of labor, or should be turned over
as apprentices to loyal men in the South, under
proper safeguards and restrictions. Another
question of vital import will be that of finance;
and, fortunately, we have at the head of the
Treasury Department competent. faithful and
intelligent officer, whose views and suggestions
deserve to meet with favor. In addition to
other measures of pressing necessity, he will
probably recommend the creation of a National
Bank--a recommendation which, we think,
should meet the appreciation of Congress But
we will probably have the Presidents Message
and the reports Of the heads of departments to-
day, and it will then be time enough to com
ment upon them. Meantime it may not be out
Of place to cenjure Congress to rise superior to
fanatical and abolition views, and be governed
only by constitutional and national considcra-
tons. Let Congress do so. and all will yet be

GENERAL. FREMoNr-SAvE lin FROM HIS
FmEsps.-The Hon. james A. Briggs, at the
Opdykc mass meeting at Cooper Institute on
Saturday night, in his enthusiastic admiration
Of Gen. Fremont at the expense of the admins
tration at Washington, permitted his zeal to
outrun his discretion. Gen. Fremont himself,
since he was superseded in his late Missouri
command, has set a good example of silence in
regard to the questions at issue between him
and the government His over jealous friends,
from st. Louis to New York have seized every
opportunity to draw him out; but he has resist
ed their temptations. In this he has shown his
good senac and his friends will act wisely in
leaving him to his own justification in the regu-
lar way OF settling such matters.
