AND COUNTY MONDAY, A PHIL. 9, I860. jgg* Interesting reading matter on our fourth page this morning. WHO IS REALLY INDEPENDENT. The sudden overthrow of the institution of slavery and the consequent introduction of tree labor muBt, necessarily, be succeeded by some important changes in the industrial economy of the Southern Stales. Among the many interesting questions which present themselves for solution in the consid eration of this subject,not the least important in its bearing upon the future weal of our people is the inquiry what class or classes will be, in the future, independent? Some years since our attention was called to an old statute passed in the days of William Penn, by the Legislative Council of Penn sylvania, in which idleness is characterized, in good Saxon English, as being “tfifc mother of all sin.” It was the philosophy of those early times in Colonial history, in fact, to regard it as a man’s duty first to serve and honor m his Creator, and next to be skilled in some_ craft or business, so as to avoid coming on the community or the Government for sup port. The acquisition of learning even was regarded as but of secondary importance.— A citizen, it was held, might be a good cit izen even though he could not read latin authors itw^re original, but not, if he wanted the ability to maialain himself. The last was absolutely essential, the first,^is a gen eral rule, was not. If through thrift, energy and industry, the ordinary citizen acquired a competence, then the study of the liberal arts might be properly undertaken. But, till then, the first duty of every one who was not heir to a large estate, was to learn some business. It was in this way that our fore-fathers not only in Pennsylvania but in the colonies generally, took care that their children, when grown lip should not he driven from want or incapacity, as many of *the present day are, to dishonest courses. We have made great advances in many things since that time, but we doubt if, in this particular, we have not gone back. Not that our generation attaches too much im portance to schoo's and books. It is impos sible to have books, readers aud teachers in excess. But those old times certainly sur passed our own in the dignity they imparted to labor, aud on the public opinion which expected every man to have some craft or profession by which to earn a livelihood. Education '■'‘•as then considered to include some things {yhore than book-learning and parlor accomplishments, and was regarded, in its true sense, as the forming of the entire character. The first requisite for the respect able citizen was that he should be able to maintain himself, because without this ability be could not be really independent and was liable through violence to full into evil habits. Hence the child, from earliest infancy, was. taught to look forward to a life of active work hs the highest dignity of manhood. Hence every citizen, whatevei his rank, “ pulled ht the laboring oar,” each in bis own sphere, it is true, but not the less industriously for that. There were no drones in those days. The class of men with which modern society abounds, the class that lives only for show, luxury or pleasure, was utterly unknown. The rich did not consider that their wealth entitled them to spend their lives in selfish idleness. The j>oot were not tempted to look on labor as disgraceful, and to prefer comparative starvation to comfort and independence. Atpresent it is different. In these times a false notion extensively prevails that if labor is not absolutely disagreeable, it is at least a mark of gentility to have nothing to do. Under the influence of this absurd and mis chievous idea, hundreds of parents previous to the war who bad acquired but moderate fortunes were bringing up their children in elegant idleness, forgetting that that estate which supports one household will not sus tain those of a dozen .descendants, and that even if it would, wealth may take wings, as indeed it has, and fly away. Even parents who have no fortunes at all, have brought up their sons in idleness. “It is vulgar,” they say, “to put them to a trade.” And thus a plentiful crop of shiftless, purposeless, va grant, good-for-nothing young men, have beeu annually turned loose on society, to in feet other young men by tbeir example, to live parasitically on the community, and to die in disgrace. He only is truly independent who is master of his own fortune. No man is master of his fortunes unless he has learned a handi craft, studied a profession or acquired habits of business. Such a man, even if he should be rich and afterwards become poor, as has been the case with thousands in the last four years, can never be otherwise than inde pendent: for be is secure ol bis daily bread, can keep out of debt, and need fear to look no fellow-being, therefore, in the face. We desire by this tone of remark to im press upon the minds of Southern parents, rich and poor, that iL would be better for modern society if it cultivated a healthier public opinion on this subject; if it insisted every child should be brought up to some thing for a liviDg; if it honored the worker more than the drone, and rated the hooest laborer above the rich and idle sensualist. with regard to the suspension of the writ of habeas corpus. If the Secretary of "War should not obey the Chief Magistrate in withdrawing the forces of the United States from the rebellious States, as they are called, President Johnson (like President Jackson in nearly similar circumstances, when Secretary Duane, the 1 then Secretary of the Treasury, was dis placed and Judge Taney was appointed to i succeed him) will not permit a subordinate j officer of the Executive Department to stand ‘ in the way of the execution of his ordets. ; A reconstruction of the entire Cabinet is ] almost certain to follow, and heads of de- i partments appointed rendering the adminis tration a unit. If the Ridical party, carrying out its partizau designs, should determine not to pass the appropriation acts they may bring the government to a dead lock. In the struggle for power, such laineutable consequences might follow. It would be the office of patriotism in thal case, to bring the question of constitutionality before the Supreme Court as speedily as possible. It is a fortunate circumstance that that coutt is now in session. It has lately sfibwn its independence in the liquor case? by decidiug in favor of Massa chusetts and against Congress in the case of the license laws. We have not the least doubt that the federal judiciary will decide that the Executive has acted in conformity with the constitution in declaring that as war no longer exisls between the States (Which is simply a ques tion of fact) the writ of habeas corpus must be restored and military tribunals aud martial law abolished.
