FOURTH OF JULY.

We Issue our paper this morning, on the SIXTY
ninth anniversary of American Independence!
The long and bloody struggle that succeeded
the Declaration Of Independence, is familiar TO
every school boy, and we have all been taught
to regard this day as national sabbath: day
set apart 10 celebrate the birth Of American
Independence. and to re consecrate the memories
Of our forefathors, those sages patriots, statesmen,
and warriors, whose wisdom, independence and
proves, won for US the liberties which we now
enjoy. Thousands upon thousands Of American
citizens are assembled this day, for this holy pur.
pose-and in listening to the strains Of eloquence
pour'd forth touching those evenlful times (which
tried mems SOULS" and the fervent prayers sent
up to the great Governor Of Nations for our con-
,nued union and prosperity, political divisions
and sectional animositiss are forgotten, and q
unity OF feeling and sentiment pervades this great
nation: ''OUR Country FiRsr-ouR CouHrRr
LAsr--oun COUNTRY ALwAys!'
The Creator wisely ordained every seventh
should be laid aside, and the mind left untram.
meled to contemplate the wisdom and goodness
OF an over ruling Providence, and engage in
such religious duties as are due to the Creator
from the created. 1t is therefore meet that ma,
tons should have Sabbath-a day on which
local matters are to be forgotten, and the citizens
meet together as freemen and brothers. 1t brings
about re union Of feeling and sentiment essen.
,ial to the perpetuity Of the Institutions Of ouI
country, without which we should become es
tranged, and the glorious bonds Of union which
now bind US together be broken asunder. Long
may this National Sabbath be observed.
We embrace this is on opportune time to con.
graduate the country upon the prospect Of con
,inued peace between this country and England.
The Oregon difficulty has been adjusted by
Treaty, between the diplomatic agents OF the
Two countries, and approved by the treaty making
power at Washington-and thus the spec Of war
which has been for some time gathering, is happily
dissipated, and the business Of the country, which
had become deranged and partially suspended, is
beginning to resume its wonted activity, and the
energies and feelings Of the people, which had
been depressed by The prospect OF war and all
its train Of evils. are relieved, and their hearts
made to rejoice at the prospect Of continued
peace and prosperity.
Thanks TO the AMERICAN SENATE!

Population Required

Thus it will be seen that, whilst all counties
having 1921 white inhabitants will have one
representative each, 2,039 inhabitants, will have
one representative each, 2,039 inhabitants will
be dslranchised in each OF the second class oil
counties, 37S9 in each OF the third class; 6,992
in each Of the fourth class; 8740 in each Of the
fifth class; 10,4SS in each OF the sixth class;
1876 in each Of the seventh class; 1884 in
each Of the eighth class; 1922 in each OF the
ninth class; 17.4S0 in each Of the tenth class;
ard SO on indefinitely. In St. Louis about
l7,480 white inhabitants are to be dsfranchised
at the next apportonment, according to this new
organic law, which some Of our city cotempor
aries are urging upon the people for their ratifca
ton! If representation were equalized, starting
on the ratio prescribed for the first class OF
counties, St. Louis would have 16 representa-.
,ives, within small fraction. The white popu
aon Of this county is set down in the State
census at 42,483. Such will be the mode of
apporionment. il the constitution be ratified,
until 1852, when the twothirds rule will begin
to operate, instead Of the three ffths. We give
the following table to show the operation Of the
constitutional rule after 1852, as long as the new
constitution exists, il it be sanctioned at all:

He is much pleased with the prospect on this

DYING TIE DEATH OF THE RIDICULOUS
Senator Allen, Of Ohio, has resigned his seat as
Chairman Of the Committee on Foreign affairs.
He vscated the post because the Senate refused
to go for "all Of Oregon"-up to 81 deg. 40
min. Gen. Cass laid Allen out, and delivered Q
short euogy upon the important service he had
rendered his country-and kindly consented to
keep his position on the committee, notwithstand.
ing he was unable to convince majority Of the
Senate that he was right and they wrong.
Mr.. McDuffie was chosen Chairman Of the

be practically tested by applying it TO few

From the New York Sun, June S.
IMPORTANT FROM HAVANA AND YU,
CATAN

More annexation to the United States.-- Indepen-
dence settled.-NeU government chosen.
The schooner F. A. Brown, Capt. Westbrook,
arrived at Charleston, s. G. on Satu rday last, al
ter passage Of four days and half from Ha-
vana, being, we believe, the shortest passage
on record. We are indebted to Capt. West
brook fol sending Oh our files and letters, which
extend TO the Goth May.
The most important news is from Yucatan
which we annex.
Mexican merchant vessels were constantly
coming into Havna and other ports Of Cuba, in
order TO escape the American squadron.
Santa Anna and Amopte were still at Hc
vana. Tho latter "a correspondent says) will
probably return by the next steamer TO Mexico
doubtful. The Havana papers are filled
with articles upon the lighting Of that city with
gas. The pipes are now being laid. The papers
also contain long accounts Of our hoslilties with
Mexico.
BY the brig Young Gregory, at Havana, six
days from Sisal, we have received advices from
Merida, the capital of Yucatan, which reach to
the l0:h ultimo. We translate as follows: The
old legislature assembly has been dissolved
and new and extraordinary congress was in
session. |, was opened with the greatest so-
lemnity, by Miguel Barbachano, who was ap-
pointed governor interim by the assembly, and
has since been elected governor of Yucatan, by
the Congress. The names OF the other govern
mont officers are also given. The first opera.
ton Of the new Congress was to settle the ques
i'm Of independence. This being done, they
proceeded to the management and regulation OF
all the other matters necessary to the establish
men. Of new government. Three persons
have been appointed on secre, foreign mission,
ria the United STATES! Although the govern
ment did not openly declare that these officers
were to visit Washington for the purpose Of
'nquiring into the steps necessary to procure
annexation, yet this was we'll known to be the
object. This step has found great favor with
the people, and although the mission was via
The United States to some other country, ye, i.
was we'll understood.
