CELEBRATION OF THE FoURTT OF JULY.-Ihls
time-honored celebrations which took place day be-
fore yesterday, was Only observed. Many Of the
different military companies and civic societies OF
our city nrned out in their most gallant array and
to add to the charms of the glorious Anniversary
Of our Independence, the sky was bright, and the
sun shone down with golden lustre.. The pro
cession. amidst the strains Of martial music, moved
10 the appointed place of congregation, the Place
d'Armes, where it was joined by a large body Of
the Legion. Amongst the procession, we noticed
large portion of our own brave Louisiana troops,
who have just returned from Mexico, and many of
those valiant soldiers, from other States, who are
daily pouring into our city from the late seat Of
war-but now, the seat of peace. In the process
sion, we noticed Generals TAYLOR and Gaines-those
white-haired old warriors who have, by gallant
deeds. so noby deserved, and who so richly wear
the honors which their countrymen award to them.
Gen. Butler, being absent upon visit to some OF
his relatives in Ibervie, was not able to attend.
During the day, a barbecue took place at Gretna,
at which many distinguished guests were present
and several private reunions Of public men took
place at the chief hotels in the city. Although we
cannot say much for the extent of the procession,
still, all must grant that it made up in patriotism
for lis want Of numbers All hail to the Fourth Of
July, for centuries to come!

The editor and part proprietor Of the Boston
Courier, Mr. Joseph T. Buckingham, has retired
from that paper, of which he has had control since
it was established in the year 1924. For more
than thirty years, he has been connected with the
Boston press, and, during that time, has become
widely known as writer Of great vigor and ability,
inferior to few in the country. However many
may differ with him in opinion, we must at least
give him credit for sincerity Of conviction and hon
esty Of purpose, which the circumstances that have
led to his retirement from editorial life amply
sufficient to prove. He is succeeded by Messrs.
EBen B. Foster, Samuel KettelI and Isaac w. Frye,
who purchased his interest for abe sum, it is re-
ported, of $4,000 Under its new conductors, the
Courier displays the flag Of Taylor and Fillmore.
We extract the following paragraphs from Mr..
