Our Nations birth was again commemora-
ted on Wednesday Of last week 10y the people
of this village, without the distinctions of par
iy, and in manner appropriate TO the occa-
sion. No toasts were drank, no salutes were
fired, no brilliant display of fire works, and yet
the occasion will long be remembered 10y ma
ny grateful hearts. The pupils Of the Sab
bath School connected with the Congregation
al Church, together with good number of the
pupils of the other Sabbath Schools, assem-
bled at the Congregational Church. with
large number of spectators both old and young.
This interesting audience was addressed by
Mr. Thomas III. Palmer of Pittsford, in a man
ner appropriate to the time, and peculiarly a
dapted to give a right direction to the affections
and minds of the children and youth Rev Mr..
Steele of Castleton, followed Mr.. Palmer, and
among other suitable remarks, urged upon the
audience the importance of fixing the attention
of the children upon the scenes and principles
which were the characteristics of our success
full contest for independence. Rev. w. Mitch
ell also addressed the audience upon the sub
in manner well fitted 10 do good. The time
between the addresses, was filled up by vocal
and instrumental music from the Choir and
the Union Band. After these exercises, the
several classes with their teachers were form
ed in procession, and with various banners, in
scribed with mottos suited to such an occa-
sion, marched to the beautiful grove in the rear
of Mr. Reeds Hotel, where the whole partook
joyously of the "cake and cheese" and "cold
water set before them. After the refresh
ment, the procession returned TO the village
and dispersed, greatly delighted with the Gel
cbration.
Ifsuch celebrations of the Fourth OF July
were more frequent, the early impressions up
on the rising generation, of independence and
rational liberty, would be more correct.
The Fourth was celebrated at Windsor by
about 10000 Wings. AT Vergennes by about
! 5000.
! About 10000 Wings assembled at Stu alton,
and were addressed by Hon. Daniel Webster,
upon the subject of the Sub-Treasury and the
currency. Hon. Inland Hall was nominated
for Congress, and Hon. w. Henry for Eec-
| tor.
! AT the Wing District Convention at Royal
ton Hon. ii. Everett was nominated for Con-
gress, and Hon. A. b. w, Tenney, for Elec-
| tor.
The Fourth was celebrated by the Tories,
British we suppose) at Burlington. The
Sentinel says, "before noon it was estimated
that the number in town was not much short
of one half the number that attended the late
boosted Wing State Convention" The Sen
tinel, of course, will take his own estimate OF
the number at the wing convention, for his
guide; so we need not be alarmed at this tory

"RUTLAND COUNTY IN THE FIELD

We find under this head, an article 10 the
Patriot Of July 9th, in relation 10 the Van Blu
rem Convention at Clarendon Springs. The
Patriot says, "The number present is set down
at from l,000to 1900" Now in the rIghf
reading ofthese figures, as tn ey stand in the
quotation, the Patriot would be within the truth
as they should correctly be read, from one to
twelve. But ifihe learned editor intended his
renders to understand that the number was
from one thousand TO twelve thousand, the
statement is not true, as the lowest number
would exceed the truth by about 500, all coun-
ted .Tcries,-whigs, women and children

iuni,y for correct information, give their opin.
