PITTsBURG, July This forenoon num-
Der of factory girls in Allegheny city proceeded
to the Hope Cotton Factory, for the purpose of
enforcing the ten-hour law. They attempted
to get the Hope girls to join them but failed.
They succeeded, however, in tearing down a
portion of the fences enclosing the factory. The
Allegheny police came on the ground, and
shortly dispersed them. During the dinner
hour, a large number Of girls assembled in the
immediate vicinity of the Hope Factory, but
made no demonstration of violence. A large
police force have been sworn to enforce order.
The Hope Factory continued work during the
day. The Eagle Factory was obliged to dis
charge the balance Of its hands, in consequence
of the routine of business being interfered with
by those who had left AT the earnest solicita-
ton of the remainder of the hands, the Eagle
Factory consented to run again tomorrow.
Some of the mills were not running. No arrests
were made. There are thirty inches of water
in the channel, and the river falling.

delegation from the two Lodges in George
town, acting upon an invitation extended to
them by the brotherhood in Rockville, left at
an early hour in two of Admiral Resides best
coaches, to unite with them in celebrating the
birthday of our Independence After one of the
most delightful rides | ever enjoyed, we landed
IN Rockville about nine O'clock a. M; but so
far from the enthusiastic reception which "Mer-
curry" (of the Sum imagined we received, we all
felt ON our arrival pretty much like so many rats
let loose in strange garnet; for no man came
forward to welcome us to the village, and but
few to say Good morning but each was left to
seek, as best he could, shelter from the rays
of the sun, and the clouds Of dust that were con
tinually sweeping through the streets, to the
great discontinue of mouth, eyes, nose, cloth
ing, and fine regalia.
The hour Of ten having arrived, we formed
and took up the line of march through the sun
and dust, to the sound of something called
music, (but in my opinion any thing else,) to
the Academy, where we received the Sons Of
Temperance, and escorted them to the grove
selected for the celebration. Having reached the
place, the Rev. Mr.. Kraigle opened the exercises
with very impressive prayer. The declaration
OF independence was then read in fine style by
Mr.. Tredwell, principal of the Academy; and
Dr. Guier, of Frederick City, was introduced to
the audience as the orator of the day and al
though he delivered one of the most interesting
eloquent and patriotic speeches ever had the
pleasure of hearing, he was not once applauded
by any except some of the Georgetown and
Tridelphia delegations.
The Grafton being concluded, we formed into
line and marched back to town, where, after
escorting the Sons of Temperance to their Hall,
we were dismissed, and left to enjoy the hos
pitality of the place at our own expense, for /
have yet to find the man who was asked to eat,
drink, or smoke cigar upon any other terms
The only articles that to be had free of cost
were full supply of dust, and cold water to wash
it down.
At the hour of three p. M, our horses were
hitched to the stages, and at the whoop of our
marshal, brother John Garrett, we took our
seats to return home. Three cheers for Rock
vile were proposed and given in the most en-
thusiastic manner but no man was to be found
in the place to come forward to say Bah to it.
The drivers whip cracked, and we sped away
down the turnpike for our homes. After ano-
ther delightful ride, we reached Georgetown
about six, o'clock p. m, fully determined, on
our part, never to accept another invitation to
60 abroad, until we know where we are going
