effect of spirited, wisely conducted and patriotic
celebration, closing, for instance, with magnif.

to bring thousands from the adjacent country to

expended profusely amongst US. Already lie the
"Cockade" town taking the initiatory steps towards
proper celebration there-and meeting of her
citizens was called for last evening, to carry out
that purpose. Shall Richmond, the capitol of that
