MIR. Peabody's Celebration OF the Fourth
OF July.

This event (says the London correspondent Of
the New York Commercial -4dps5tissr) passed off
with the utmost briiancy. The entertainment
included concert and ball. About seven or eight
hundred invitations were issued, OF which more
than half were to Americans. tets given IN the
same rooms last year by the Peninsalar and ORR
entail Steam Company Zone OF the largest and most
prosperous establishments in London) to the Ne
paulese ambassador, was considered the handsomest
affair of the season but although the expenditure
on that occasion profuse, all the arrangements
on Friday last were of a much more perfect de-
scription The concert commenced at half past
nine, according TO programme, which comprised
the leading artists OF her malesty's theatre Dane
ing began eleven Shortly after thathour the Duke
of Wellington arrived, and was warmly received.
Among the other members of the nobility present
were the Marquis of Ely, the Marquis of Clan
ricardo, yiscount Torrngton, Lord Gieneg, Lord
Charles Russell the Earl and Countess of Beehive,
Lord Dudley Stuart, Lord Marcus Hill, the Count
Of Eglintoun, sc. From the city there were
the Lord Mayor and the Lady Mayoress, and the
Governor of the Bank Of England Several OF the
judges also attended In the list of foreigners there
were the Duke of Valencia, (Marshal Narvaez,
the late Prime Minister of Spain,) Count Pulzky,
(late Hungarian Secretary OF State,) Countess
Pulzky, and others. MIR. Golden, and the veteran
reformer, Joseph Hume, came from the House OF
Commons, with large number ofother members,
of all shades political opinion. The Crystal Pal
ace also had its representatives in Mr. Fox and
MIR. Paxton. Indeed there has rarely In LONDON
been more interesting assemblage, or a meeting
from first TO last effective and animated II was
three O'Clock in the morning before the crowd be-
gan perceptibly to diminish, and it was nearly five
before the party was really over.
The decorations Of the ball room in the
most excellent taste. Portraits of the Queen and
Washington were placed at either end. and a bust
of Franklin occupied pedestal Congratulations
on the happy idea which Mr.. Peabody had thus
carried out, and which will be rendered more
memorable from its occurring in the year of the
Exhibition, poured in from all sides. He has for
some time been regarded in monetary circles as the
leading representative of your country, and he
could certainly have rendered no greater service
to both nations than that of causing them to blend,
for the first time after seventy five years of sep
aration, in a common recognition of the Fourth of
July, and of the blessings it has conferred both
upon themselves and the world.

HONESTY AND PovERTY IScoMPArIBLE.-The
Richmond Enquirer the organ of the elite Democ-
racy, in noticing the Democratic nominations in
California, says:
''It is a curious fact that two brothers, William
and John Bigler, should be running for the office
OF Governor in two great States on the Atlantic
and Pacific, Pennsylvania and California, and
with the brightest prospects, of success. They are
of poor but honest birth, and by their talents, en-
ergy, and merits, have raised themselves to po-
stion of mertng the confidence of free, sovereign,
and mighty States"
Upon which the New Orleans True Della Ia
Democratic paper) remarks;
'Poor but honest, ehl We did not expect to see
this in the leading Democratic paper in Virginia.
II seems that in the opinion of this socalled Demo-
cratic editor, poverty and honesty rarely al
lied. Fie upon such Democracy
