The p: occasion i>f tho workingmen of this citv to-night was not only large as to num? bers, but brilliant in appearance.

The line was about a mile in length, perhaps the largest and most imposing civic procession ever witnessed in this city. Some of the trades, such as carpenters, gas litters, boiler and steam engine makers, bia. '., smiths an'1, painters, gave practical exhibitions ol' their respective vocations, while the printers worked oil" a short poem in advocacy of the eight hour system. A ship, full rigged, with men on board, was among the prominent objects of interest. Thousands of spectators lined the streets through which the procession passed. The workingmen halted before the City Hall, where addresses were delivered to the im? mense crowd in adv? i acy of thc eight hour svstcm. -Correspondence Ballimore Sun. THE RELEASE OF JOHN MITCHELL. The release of John Mitchell having been granted by the President, on an application of the Fenian Congress at Philadelphia, presented by a special envoy, the Congress decided that a deputation should proceed to Wash? ing-ton, to give expression to the thanks of the organization. Accord? ingly, Colonel W. li. Roberts, of New York, President of the Senate, and B. Doran Killian, of St. Louis, as special delegates, accompanied by Mr. S. J. Meany, of Toledo, proceed? ed to the White House and were given an early interview. On being introduced, Colonel Roberts address? ed the President as follows: "MR. PRESIDENT: I have the honor of being delegated by the Convention of Irish-American citizens, assembled in Philadelphia, representing large social fiasses in thirty States and Ter? ritories, to wait upon your Excellency and express to you how deeply they feel the act restoring to freedom a man whom they love and venerate for j his self-sacrificing devotion to his nativo land. They remember nothing I of John Mitchell's American career. They can never forget that he risked all a patriot should for Ireland. I am sure, your Excellency, the American J/Owin^ itu. UHVU HW V<I?IOV ww H^Uv the sympathy they feel and the friend? ship we believe they entertain for their lellow-citizens of Irish birth. We, sir, are not unconscious of the fact that we have found in America, liberty, justice and an asylum." President Johnson replied in sub tance as follows: "GENTLEMEN : I am glad to learn that the steps which have been taken in the matte1-"referred to have met i with the approval of the gentlemen who have sent you here. As you, sir, i delicately remarked, we coidd not re? member Mr. Mitchell's American career; but we were anxious, as a mark of respect and compliment to the large section of our countrymen with whom Mr. Mitchell Mas pre? viously identified, to yield to their expressed wishes in that regard." After some further conversation of a friendly character, the delegation withdrew. AN IMPORTANT CASI:.-In the United States Court yesterday, a motion was made by General J. C. Ramsey, of counsel for Dick McCann and Reuben Roddy, now held in prison at Knox? ville for trial by the State courts under indictment for murder, l'or a writ of habeas coitus to take the ease out of the State courts and place it in that of the United States. Messrs. J. C. Guild and Baxter Smith are as? sociated as counsel with General Ram? sey, and in consequence of the ab? sence of Judge Guild. General Ram? sey moved that the Court hear the argument upon his motion on Wed? nesday next, and it was so ordered by Judge Trigg. The ground upon which the motion for a habeas corpus to take the case out of the State courts is rested is, that the rebels j were recognized as belligerents; that j McCann and Roddy surrendered under the agreement between Sher- I man and Johnston-being the same as that under which General Lee sur? rendered to General Grant-and that they were paroled and have since ob? served the terms of their parole, and that whatever acts they committed during the period of their military service, were by the order ot' superior officers recognized and treated as bel ligerents. Upon these grounds the counsel of McCann and Roddy will contest the right of the State of Ten? nessee to try their clients. This is one of the most important eases that has come before the United States Court here, and in its issue is involved tho mooted question of thc right of a State to try a rebel soldier or officer for crimes ho may have committed against the State laws in the discharge of duties assigned him by a superior; in other word.-., whether the agree? ment under which the rebel armies were surrendered protects those who accepted the parole as long as they observe its conditions. i NasJiv?le D'utpaich.
