CELEBRATION OF THE FOURTH
OF JULY,
At SPURLOCK'S SPRINGS.

As it is common to say something, in
regard to the Celebration of this day
have thought proper to pen you a few has
ty remarks, in relation to its celebration,
at the above place.
Considering the short time that the citE,
liens had to prepare for the occasion, (be-
ing only three days, and then behold the
actual preparation that had really taken
place when we met, was really astonlsh-
ing, and reflects much honor on the PEG.
pie of the neighborhood, by whom our din
ner was given, particularly the female
part, who, with almost unparalleled des
patch, had prepared large quantities o.,
cakes of every description, tarts, pics, &c.
&c, which, to behold, appeared to be the
work of month, instead of two or three
days. The managers on the occasion, W.
Firth, Lee Wilson and II. Burris, also, de-
serve much credit for the manner in which
the whole was conducted in a word, moth
ing was wanting to render the whole com
plete--the delicious SAVIOR from the va
rious viands, the sparkling of the liquors,
and the harmony and good feeling which

tenance, to beam with joy; when to
our great disappointment and sorrow, there
came up shower of rain, just as we were
gbout to sit down at table, and of course,
the appearance of the different dishes
were materially injured by exposure to the
rain--the ladies, however, finished dinner.
when VIC all repaired to the stand, to hear
the grafton, by DR.. A. H. Hall. 1t has
seldom been our lot to witness so much
attention as was paid to the orator, while
speaking, his youthful appearance seemed
to have enlisted the feelings of every one
present, for his success The talent dis
played, and the eloqucnce of the out-pour-
ing of his powerful intellect, while they
secured the applause and admiration Of
the company, agreeably disappointed all.
The Grafton being ended, the company a.
gain returned to the table, when the fol-
lowing regular toasts, prepared by COM
mittee, composed of the following persons,
viz: i. Smith, w. Gardner, and J. F. Ram

The matin bells are pealing,
From tow'r and turret gray;
And fairy steps are stealing
O'er'beds of breathing bloom, away
Awake from golden slumbers,
That claim thee, love, from me;
Let music's soltest numbers
Unlock the spell that hangs ocr thee.
Oh! fly with me,
Der land and sea,
Where steps may rove,
And hearts may love
Where nesting sweet,
mid boughs that meet,
OF tangled vine,
Or eglantine,
Our cot shall rise
Meath roseate skies,
Where Love, unmatched, may breathe her sigh:
My gallant bark is lying
Beneath thy lattice, dear;
And epicy gales arc signing,
TO wait inee to Loves rosy sphere,
There's freedom on the billow,
And music in the wind!
Then, Ellen, quit thy pillow,
Those silken braids of jet to bind
And fly with me,
Ger land and sea,
My long-denied--
My p!ighted bride:
In myrtle shades,
And mystic glades,
Where Tasso roved,
And Petrarch loved
Well wing away
The golden day
Oh! fly with mei-away!-away
