The Fourth Of July Celebration.

The Fourth Of July Celebration.
In accordance with previous arrange
ments, the citizens of this place and sur
rounding country celebrated the birth
day of our countrys independence in
an appropriate manner.
At an early hour the people poured in
from all directions, and soon our town
was full to overlooking. At about 8
o'clock the stars and stripes were seen
floating magesticaly in the breeze over
the heads of hundreds of merry and
happy freemen.
At 10 o'clock the vast assemblage
crowded around the stand, prepared for
the speaking. The exercises commenced
with instrumental and vocal music, fol-
lowed by an eloquent and appropriate
prayer, by the Rev. B. A. Spalding.-
After the reading of the Declaration Of
independence, by George May, Esq,
r. II. Posey, Esq. delivered spirited
and eloquent Grafton. The speaker
took strong ground in favor OF the Union
in several eloquent sallies, which elected
much enthusiasm, and told too truely
how strong and abiding is the love of the
American people for the Union.
After the close of the Grafton the COM
pany marched TO table some half mile
distant, in beautiful grove, on the bank
of the Desmoines, and partook Of some
refreshments provided for the occasion.
Every thing passed off pleasantly. Po-
litical distraction and wranglings were LOST
sight of for the time, and all met togeth-
er like one great prosperous and happy
American brotherhood. to honor the day
that gave birth 10 a nation of freemen,
and show their undying attachment to
the union frs. cemented by the tears Of
our mothers, and the blood of our fathers,
and handed down to US as the riches,
legacy TO man.
In the evening the young folks repair
ed to the Western Hotel, where we UNI
derstand they enjoyed themselves for a
few hours in shaking the fantastic toe.
Mr.. Patrick gave them supper, which
we heard many say was equal to any
thing of the kind ever got up in these
parts. He is Of the right stripe, and
just the man who understands doing
these things up sbrown.'

Indian Fight.

We learn from the Minnesota Pioneer.
of the 9th ult., that at Sank Rapids,
eighty miles above ST. Anthony, on Sun
day last, 23d inst, about forty Winnie
bago Indians assembled at the steamboat
landing and came 10 Mr.. Poner's ira
ding house and demanded whisky, which
he refused them. A Mr.. Francis, kauf-
man, who was outside. in attempting 10
come in was attacked by several Indians
inside. All the Indians outside COM
menced rushing into the house and break
ing the windows. Mr.. Sommervle and
a Frenchman, in attempting to rescue
kaufman, were wounded. Mr.. 5. re-
ceived several cuts with tomahawk up
on the head, and the Frenchman receiv-
ed blow which broke his left arm, and
a cut with knife in his right arm. Mr..
Potter then interferred, armed with pis-
toll, six barrelled revolver, and two RI
fles. He made seven shots, and killed
and wounded four or FIVE Indians, clear
ing the house. Mr.. Potter then sent Som
srville and the Frenchman, who were
wounded. down to the landing. and soon
after started for the landing himself
Four Indians followed him, he hid IN
the hazel brush. and they passed on
Soon another Indian rode close up to
him on horseback, when Mr.. p. fred up
on him, but does not know whether his
shot look effect or not. The Indian fed.
MI. Potter then came down 10 St. An
thony with the wounded men in canoe,
and is now in ST. Paul. The fight oc-

RIcHLAND, Iowa, June %, 1850.

Messrs. Editors: In looking over your
paper OF June l4th, ] saw a reference to
the Sentinel's remarks upon Mr.. Wrights
speech, calling it ga failure" There
is an old saying, full of meaning, that
"people living in glass houses should not
indulge in throwing stones" In seeing
how anxious the Locos are TO bring
down Mr.. w. from the high position he
occupies as speaker, we are i'm
pressed with the truth OF another old
proverb, viz: "misery loves company"
And il is true that some men are so con.
temptibly mean when in trouble that
they would like TO have all the world
"and the rest of mankind" involved in
the same difficulty.
AS speaker Mr.. w. occupies po-
sition far above the reach of the exceed
ingly small potatoe editor of the Senti-
mel. And in firing at him the Sentinel
displays about as much sagacity as the
unlettered savage does in firing at the
moon, and in the vanity of his heart inn
AGNES that he has made an impression
on it.
But why, we ask, should the Locos
bring up the subject of speaking!-
Surely notin support of their candidate!
We had speech, if indeed it could be
called speech, from Hem; and we have
no hesitancy in saying that it was the
most signal failure that has been made
in the place; and i! has been passed in
silent contempt by the wings: and the
honest democrats are ashamed of it,
If Mr.. w. is no better than HEM, they
would rather have no Representative:
as they say it were better TO have none,
than to be disgraced with such an one as
Hem at Washington. We hope to be
favored with speech from Mr.. w. soon,
when we expect him to finish the work
commenced by Henn-the destruction
of Locofocoism, and to bury its filthy
carcass sodeep tina: Hen cannot scratch
it up again. L. B.

GoLD NEws.-Discoveries of gold
continue to be made in Indians. Gold
has been found in jackson, Brown,
Greene, Owen and Clay counties.
In Brown county, the precious stuff
appears not to be confined alone to the
beds o. creeks and ravines, but tn: veins
lead back into the hills, where il is said,
it is found in great abundance. Compa-
MES are preparing TO commence opera
tons in the hills under fattering pros

The Bloomington Reporter, from
which we CLEAN the above information,
has the following announcement OF the
latest discovery heard Of at the time the
paper was put to press:
Just as we are going to press, we are
informed by Mr.. Collins, that he has
found gold in the north part OF this coun-
ty, on Bryants Greek, in crystal Of

state that many permit being first OBJ

ordinances prevents an accurate report
being made out by the Board, and will

this matter.-Des Moines Republic.
In last weeks Courier we stated that
Mr.. Wright did not vote for the amend

of Public Works, which gives the Sec
rotary 81 for furnishing the settlers on

stated distinctly at the Court House,
that the Bill was reported to the Senate

Their history of the bill, he did not dis
timely recollect. We did not deny that
Mr.. Wright voted for the bill on its final
passage. But what we did deny and
what we now distinctly state is this, that
MI. w. did not vote for the 81 amend
snent Of the House. And we challenge
you to proyeit.
Let il be distinctly borne in mind by
every man in the Valley, that the Repub-
ne nor the Board deny that the Locofo-

Charles Cookery and H. w. Sample,
who acted as lobby members,) are res
ponsible for this Q amendment; that ii
was introduced for the purpose OF
giving the Loco Secretary 81 for ev-

the people caused them to cease exact.

A memorial from Miss Dix, the well

land for the establishment of an asylum
for the insane of the United States, was
lately presented in the Senate, and refer
red to select committee. This augurs
well for the success of the application.
If the public lands are to be given a.

estimates the number of insane in the
