CONGRESS.

The Congress of the United States is now in session-its action will materi- ally affect the interest of the whole Southern country, and many hope, set tle and fix our condition beyond the interfcrence of men and parties. Yet we apprehend that the passion of party is still in too lively exercise to allow a calm and dispassioned consideration of national questions. Radical hatred to the South is~so deep seated, that not withstanding, wisdom should charac- terize the deliberations of Congress, and the good cfthe whole mtion should be their chief concern; prejudice is in their mind, and old measures will be re-canvassed and new ones devised to throw upon the South an additional burthen of wrong, aud.render the fu- ture to us more gloomy than the past. The great work of settling the recon struction of the Southern States, in ac- cordance with the plan by them devised, rests upon the present Congress. The different States of the South having voted upon themselves convention, must after presenting constitution to the people, submit it to Congress and await their action in the matter, before taking their place in the Union, if a place be allowed them. The much talk ed ofimpeachme ent plan must take form during this session or die out entirely. This setting of Congress will be looked upon with interest by the whole coun- try North and South. The North. through its action, looking for the es- tablishment of permanent political party the South for decided action for or against her prosperity.

ENGLISH TRADES UNIoNs.-Thc Trades
Union Commission, which brought out such
startling revelations at Sheffield, has COM
menced its investigations at Manchester.
The troubles have been principally with
the building trades. The brickmakers
struck against machinery, and destroyed
bricks and machines. They trampled
down whole yards Of newly-moulded
bricks, and threw nudes into the clay, SO
that it could not be handled. They wonld
not allow bricks Of any kind to be brought
from q distance. The bricklayers also
made mischief, and SO intertered with the
free course OF trade as to raise the rents of
the whole district. At the same time that
these revelations are being made at Man.
chester, the Stavely GOLFERS have held a
meeting to celebrate their successful
strike against the trades unions. They
have struck for free trade i'll labor-the
right of every man to take his labor to
market and sell it for the price that suits
him. 1t is settled that men may combine
to raise their wages, but they must not at
tempt to force others to join them. The
unionists, however, do not agree to this
doctrine. 1t is struggle-a warfare,
they say, between labor and capital, and
the minority Of workipgmen should be
forced to take part with the majority

PETERSBURG, September 10, 1867.

PETERSBURG, September 10, 1861.
The first bale Of cotton of the new crop
was brought in yesterday. 1t was grown
by Dr.. w. r. Miller, of Wake county, n.
c., and was sold to-day at thirty cents per
pound. 1t is on established usage in all the
cotton markets to pay premium on the
first bale, and 1t also commands several
cents more than the market price. The pre-
MUM is paid by the commission merchant
to whom 1t is consigned. In this case
Messrs. Todd, Pugh s Co. were the con-
signees, and they presented Dr.. NJ. with a
beautiful silver cup. The cotton also
brought about twenty-five dollars more
than It would have sold for at the current
market rates.
The Hastings Court Of this city COM
menced its quarterly term to-day. The
civil docket is said to be heavy one, en-
bracinr a large number Of new cases; and
the commemorative docket is also full,
consisting of three felony and thirteen
m;sdemeanor cases-some Of them exciting
n good deal Of interest.
The accounts from the pcighboring coun-
try represent an unusual prevalence Of
autumnal fevers. Until within a year or
two past our climate has been remarkably
healthy at this season. AS we are now
going through heated term almost as OPP
pressive as the one we had in. July, it is TO
be feared that few persons will escape an
attack; and nothing can arrest the preva-
lence OF the disease for at least three or
four weeks to come, which is as early as
we can look for biting frost.

The asepurt on RituaIism.

LoSpoN, September !, lS67.-The Ritual
Commission has made its first report-a
very mild onc-againSt the VeStments.
They examined a number OF witnesses,
who all agreed that these vcstments, how
ever important as symbols of doctrine,
were not essential. Then, if not essential,
why not abandon them, they ask, when so
many are opposed to them ! The answer
OF the Ruualsts is: "Those vestments
and ceremonies are certainly not essential
no more is the flag essential to the soldier,
but the soldier will die for his flag, not
withstanding." But the commission has
not touched, and dare not touch, the real
heart Of the controversy, which is doc
trine, for on that the whole Church Of
England, bishops, clergy, and laity, are
divided into two camps; and this diff
ference cannot be reconciled. The Ritual
lists in heart, as well as the Ritualists in
practice, believe in the doctrine Of the
Real Presence: the anti -Ritualsts deny
it. The Ritualists believe that they have
priests, affairs, and o sacrifice; the anti
Ritualists believe only in ministers, tables,
and commemorative ceremony. One
party declares that the Church Of England
is and ever has been Catholic, holding the
same faith with the Eastern and Western
Churches-as one in all essential points
with the Patriarch Of C0nstantinople and
the Pope of Rome. The other party vio-
Iently contend that England is Protestant,
and holds neither with Rome nor Constan-
tnople but is allied, rather, if anywhere,
to Calvin and Luther. 1t is the battle Of
Professionalism and Popery being fought
out in the heart CT the Church Of England.
The Ritualist party, it must be allowed, is
the soul of the recent revival in the
Church of England. 1t has faith, energy,
devotion. 1t is the party of progress
Opposition rarely dminiShcs the zeal OF

mcnts, lights, incense, &c, without any
declaration respecting doctrines, would be
as absurd and useless as the EccleSiastica
Titles bill Of Earl Russell; and England
will never again allow her religious faitf
to be made by act Of Parliament. The
end of the contest will be religious liberty
for England and for Ireland. The Irish
establishment will 60 first and soon. II
cannot outlaSt the next Parliament. The
glaring INJUSTICE Of maintaining national
church for one fifth Of the population Of a
country cannot be defended and when
the English church is split into two OPP
posing factions, fighting each other on if,
reconcilable points Of doctrine, the dis
senters and indillerentists will be in the
majority, and State church, which the
State can no longer control, will, with the
