FOURTH OF JULY CELEBRATION AT NAUvoo-The
following is the programme of arrangements for the
celebration of the Fourth at Nauvoo:-
By the counsel and advice of President Hyrum Smith,
Messrs. o. Hyde, and g. j. Adams who have been ap-
pointed to 60 mission to Russia, will deliver two
addresses upon the subject of holy religion for the
benefit and edAcaton not only OF own citizens but
on that day. The mornings address, by Mr.. Hyde, at
halt past 10 o'clock and the afternoons by Mr. Adams at
o'clock From the circumstances under which we are
placed, this thought far advisable, for all
who wish to be considered saints to assemble for
lgious worship and collectively offer up prayers to
Almighty Col Tor peace and prosperity to attend
people. The giddy and unthinking will doubt resort
to public dinners festivals and perhaps to the ball cham
ber spend their time and money to crafty their appe
te and vanity but truehearted saLt at this peculiar
moment will do it.
At the close Of each address, collection will be taken
for the especial purpose of assisting to complete Elder
Hydes house. that he may be the liberated to
coed his important mission with Brother Adams to St.
Petersburg. He who money to spend on that day can
spend il to the glory of God in the above manner,
than after the custom and actice OF the corrupt age in
which live. 1t is hoped that the band and choir will
favor on that occasion.
Lectures to be delivered in the grove the Temple

Mh,ILLA-The Semanario Filipino" OF 18th
January, received per Consuelo, contains more
minute detail oil the insurrection in Manila. il
appears, that the officer Don Manuel Hermosilla,
Who by first accounts, stated to have been kill
ed was only wouaded, though 80 severely that he
was at first supposed TO be dead. The mutineers
who threw themselves into the water, were made
prisoners by the boats of the Captain of the Por
and of the Custom House. and by some cavalry who
were stationed on shore to intercept them. The
Semanario" does not mention the number OF pr
soners who were in custody, and who, no doubt, by

are sixteen OF the mutineers nineteen were killed
and five wounded.
