together at the village, About eleven O'Clock, pro-
cession was formed at Mr.. HARRELLs Store, and
marched down to Mr.. SoUTHERLIN's house, where a
large number of ladies seated. After the order
of the day had been announced by the marshall the
Mecklenburg Declaration was read by E. T. PIC
FORD Esq., the National Declaration of independence
by R. BANNERMAN, Esq, and an Grafton delivered by
DR.. BARKER We had no bells to toll, no cannons to
fire. in honor of the occasion but it did SEEM from
the countenances of the auditory that they still heard
the tong of the bells and the roaring of the
that marked the celebration of the day in 1884 after
the ratification of the treaty of 1885, which crowned
revolutionary struggle by restoring peace to the
nation.
Thus has the seventy-ffth anniversary of Ameri-
independence been celebrated by the people OF
the United States and Territories in union and in
peace. May each succeeding anniversary be cele-
brated in the same manner, until time shall be no

The following remarks of Falkner, upon the pro-
perties of mari as a manure, will be opportune to
those who may not have his work, but have mari
beds upon their estates. He says
50 Mari is very valuable mineral manure, the OPP
Grafton of which has been little understood, though
it has been used from the earliest times Even with
in these two three years it has been regarded as
an improver of the soil, by afording carbonate of
lime, which is limestone in state of minute division
but the German chemists and particularly Sprenge,
have made the Important discovery that it owes it's
chief virtue to the presence of saline substances as
it is found to contain sphate and phosphate of lime
and potash. Whenever, therefore, mari can be had
at a convenient distance, it must prove valuable
manure most lands and should alwt Us be used in
preference to any other earth for making eomposts,
