MY dear Sr--In my note to you from
Charleston, S {. mentioned dona.
ton OF 5 100 from ayoung lady, resident
IN Camden, to the American Education
Society. AS an expression of Christian
benevolcnce, its value is greatly increas-
ed by the fact that this sum was acquired
by her personal industry, as teacher of
youth.
1t is but justice to acknowledge that
without the aid derived from female char
ities, this important society could not
proceed in its operations. If do not
mistake, of the three largest donors to
this society, one is lady; of she three
annual contributors to the amount of S SO,
two are ladies'; and the only individual
contributor to the amount of S 100 annu-
ally, is lady. OF the l29 ministers
who are life members, l02 were constit-
uted such by the charities Of ladies'. AS
the day of Zlon's prosperity advances.
we may confidently trust that others will
press forward with holy zeal, to assist,
or even to excel these "many daughters
in Israel who have done virtuously."

1t is improper to say, that the Lady
whose liberality furnishes at once so
praisworthy an example. and such i'm
portant assistance to the funds OF the A
merican Education society, is relying
wholly on her own industry and the smiles
of Providence for the means of doing
good and for her own support. Is it in
credible that when her Lord shall say to
her in view of her well directed charities,
"Didst thou lack any thing?" she will
answer Nothing !" With how much

INDEPENDENCE.
WEDNESDAY, JULy IL, 1921.

The celebration Of this important and
glorious epoch, has been observed
throughout our happy country, with IL
creased demonstrations of Joy, at the re-
cent anniversary, and in a manner becom.
ing a free people, who value the inesti-
mable blessings which have grown ous
of that suspicious event. 1t is pleasing
reflection, that revolving time, so far from
diminishing our recollection OF what our
venerated fathers have done for us, seems
only to excite our increased gratitude.
and admiration. May that day never a7-
rive, when Americans shall cease to I'd.
member the Fourth ofJuly, and those wof-
thy patriots who pledged "tkeir Kres.
their fortunes, andtheir sacred honor" to
maintain our rights as an independens
people.
In this town the morning was ushered
in by salutes from the forti6cations, the
display Of the "star-spangled banner,''
and joyful peal ofthe merry bells. The
arrangements adopted by the Towns
Committee were carried into operation,
by forming a Procession On the Parade,
which was escorted by the Artillery
Company, under command of Col. RAN,
DoLPH, and the independent Volunteers
under Capt HELME, to the Methodist
Chapel. An excellent and appropriate
prayer was offered to TIE Throne of d.
vine Grace, by the Rev. Mr.. Dunn
the Declaration of independence, (pen-
ned by the ilustrious JEFFERsoN,) was
read III an impressive manner, by JOHN II.
EAsroN-after which. an Grafton was
pronounced by MIR. William ENNIS,
jun. This excellent performance drew
forth the undivided applause and appro.
baton of a very numerous assemblage,
and does the highest credit TO the mind
and talents of the young gentleman, who
contributed SO largely to the qualification
of the public. The performances were
interspersed with excellent music. The
day closed with festivity aid joy-and
nothing intervened to mar the pleasure
and satisfaction, experienced on this re.
turn of our nations natal day.
We receive account from ali paris Of
the Union Of splendid celebrations Of A.
merican independence. III these hal
cyon days of peace and plenty, the graf.
itude OF the people seems tn rise towards
heaven with unrestrained fervor.
Buoys have been placed by the Collec.
tor of this port, on James'.ledge, in the
west passage of Narraganset Bay, and on
the rock called Old Gay at the entrance
of the harbor Of Wexford and Spin
die erected on the Brothers, also IT the
entrance Of the same harbor. Vessels
bound to sea will leave the buoy, which
is placed on the northeast point OF the
ledge, on the s;arboard hand. The
ledge covers about an acre Of ground.

which shall accrue on the came debts in
future, may also be made applicable, IN
like manner, to the extinguishment of the
losses. should they exceed the estimated
amount; and it is the opinion of the com
mittee that these resources, orsthe greater
part of them, should be pledged, in ad
dition to the immediate application OF the
past profits of the bank; to the full amount
of the estimates, for the extinguishment OF
the eventual loss.
The committee are also of opinion that
several temporary charges upon the profits
of the bank, which have been under pro-
cess of gradual extinguisbment by semi
annual appropriations. ought to be immed''
ately extinguished. They therefore pro-
pose,
|. That the estimate OF losses be encreas-
ed to the even sum of D3,5HO,O 900 and be
deducted from the actual profits OF the bank
which have heretofore accrued.s
2. That there be now declared semi
annual dividend of one and one halt per
cent.
8. That the whole premium paid the gov
ernmen for the two millions loan OF lSsO be
now extinguished, that the balance OF the
commissions on the loan obtained by the
bank in Europe in 1919 be now ex'inguish.
ed. and that so much of the unextinguished
balance of the expenses Of the commission
ers tor taking subscriptions to the bank, &c.
as will reduce it TO 10000, be now extin-
guisbed. This small balance may be extin-
gui.hed in January next, and the bank will
then, besides its ordinary and current expen.
ses be encountered only with the payment
of the interest of the loan in Europe, which
will cease after July 1922, the estiDguisb-

auate fund to cover any losses which may
be sustained on the banking houses. which
have been or may be erected or purchased.

be now made, the account of profit and loss

to be appropriated inviolably, together with

ty for these, win always be equally great,
where the population is the same but the
consumption will be less, because the ar
ticle is dearer..
Now when war passes away, and re-
stores the untitled land to the cuitivator,
and rel places the soldier at the loom and
the plough-when the channels of indUst-
ry are choked with myriads of competit-
ors, does it surprise statesman, that out
OF this abundance of labor and product
out of this universe. struggle and rivalry,
should occur common depression of va
lue of the various products of human in
dustry. And if that depression be uni
form, as it will be, unless the apple alton
oflabor be extremely injudicious, who has
right to complain. Ii yard of cloth
can buy as much corn at the present time
as it could formerly, and both be bought
with less money, what does it prove, but
that In times of peace, mankind must be
content with smaller profits and more
equal advances-that the consumption is
never retarded, though sometimes the
labor may prove injudicious.
