Celebration.

We are informed that union celebration of
the fourth of July, will be held on that day in
the beautiful grove of Stephen Lloyd, Esq, by
the different Sunday Schools of our borough.
1t is with feelings of great pleasure that we
make this announcement. The commemoration
of the birthday of Freedom, should be part OF
the nature Of every American citizen, and there
is no better method of keeping up the hallowed
remembrance than by teaching The rising gen
Grafton its meaning and instructing them TO val
ue the liberties which took their embodiment
from its date.
- The place selected is one of the most handsome
in the neighborhood for festivity of this kind
1t is convenient to town, and the very home Of
verdure and shade. We hope general interest
will he felt in this pleasant little movement, and
that much real enjoyment may result from it.

Weight of Opinion.

There has been a prodigous effort among some
men to create the impression, that the doctrine
of the unconstitutionality of the Missouri Com
promise was a creation of recent origin. To such
the following, from the EUeIsiHg National Argus,
may afford some matter for reflection:
Three Democratic Prcsdents-J Jefferson, Ma
Olson, and Monroe-thus speak of the Missouri
Compromise:
This Missouri question. by geographical
line of DIVISION" said Mr. Jefferson, is the
most portentous one that l have ever contem-
plated"
. I must own,'" said Mr.. Madison, &" that
have always ltaned to the belief that the restIic-
ton was not within the true scope of the Consti-
tuton.''
1.-The proposed restriction to the territories
which are to be admitted into the Union, ;" said
Mr.. Monroe, IF not in direct violation of the
constitution, is repugnant to its principles. "
The unanimous opinion Of these eminent sta
tesmen is entitled to considerable weight"

Nebraska and Rnoyy-Mothlngs

1t cannot have escaped the attention ofthe pub
tic that, from the moment the House of Represen-
tatives struck out the Native American amend
ment Of Mr.. Clayton from the Nebraska bill, the
opposition to that bill by certain portion Of the
Northern press became more fierce, and the Wilt
fication of those who advocated or supported it
became more intense. This fact, in connection
with the recent amendment ofthc know nothings'
standard, indicates an important movement now
going among the fire-eaters and the fanatics
of some sections ofthe country. This movement
is nothing less than an amalgamaton Of two of
the most proscriptive and intolerant clements
which have ever entered into the politics Of our
country-we mean the spirit of abolition and Of
Native AmeIicanism OF this fact there is now
not one particle of doubt. The right of the
people, and Of the whole people, to control their
own matters by their own suffrages, is denied by
these miserable fanatics not only upon the soil
of Nebraska but on the soil of the Southern Sta
ties, so far as the slave population is concerned,
and upon the soil of the free North in attempting
to eXpariatc all citizens of foreign birth, or to
prescribe to them such terms OF probation as
would be equivalent to denial to them Of the be-
nefits of free institutions. This is the issue
now being prepared by these nuIliferS and
secessioniss. Let the trial come.-

Hon. Joseph r Chandler.

For some days it appears to have teen under
stood in the House Hall, that the head of this
learned, patriotic. and very able American sta
esman is to be offered as a sacrifice TO proprtiate
the spirit of Native Americanism in the next
nominations for Congress. in Philadelphia. 1t
vii, be remembered that nc Is a mem bcr-a strict,
conscientious and dcyout one, too-ofthe Roman
Catholic Church. though born in the United Sta
tes of an old Puritan stock, we believe. To our
Washington readers we need hardly remark that
Mr.. Chandler has worked his way fairly TO the
top round of the ladder of Congressional diStinc-
ton, having quite as much weight in the hail as
any other member who can be named Ills eO-
uuence strong mind, and varied attaInmentS,
have earned for him a national reputation, of
which his city, State and party throughout the
Union, were heretofore supposed to be proud, in
deed So, the news that he-rcally the leading
Wing of Representa.ives-is to be brought to
the block under the axe Of the latest 'rfanglc" Of
popular opinion-for worshpping God according
to the dictates Of his own conSciCncc-iS freely
discussed among the members with the Tnanifcs-
tation of very general disgust.-H ash. Star.
We have no means of knowing what is the in
ention Of the allies with respect TO the omina
tion of Mr.. Chandler, but so far as the Know
NothIngs are concerned it is certain that he can
not be supported by their members. Still, despite
all their hostility the institutions Of the coun-
try Mr.. Chandler left Washington and partici-
,,atcd in campaign which had for its object the
election of a member ofthat society ofthe Mayor
atty Of the city, and who is pledged to carry out
their most ultra and offensive doctrines. If the
poiscncd chalice be returned to his own lips, it
will be but even handed justice. We have had
more than one occas on to command Mr.. Chand-
Ter for his zeal and ability in defending the inte-
rests of the city, and therefore the more deeply
rep,et tn he comDelled TO crticise this derclctiou
from the path of duty. Mr.. Chandler consorted
with, and aided and abetted that party, which
according to it's precepts would disfranchise all
those who differ from its members in religious
faith and practice, and the consequences of their
triumph must be upon those who won the victory
for theIn.-EUening National argus.

Proposed modification of the Tariff.

The Committee of Ways and Means of the
House, it is said, have agreed to report bill
for modification of the tariff, upon the basis
suggested by Secretary Guthrie. The bill con-
tains five schedules of rates. In the first sched-
ule the old one hundred per cent. duty on bran
dies, liquors, &C., remains unchanged. We now
receive three millions duties annually from this
source. The second schedule rates the duty at
twenty per cent. This includes all the articles
which, in the previous tariff, vary from twenty
five to one hundred per cent. 1t also includes
iron, sugar, manufactured silk and hemp. The
per cent, and the fifth five per cent, and en-
braces nearly all the articles in the existing tar
if, but reducing to fifteen per cent. articles
which now pay twenty; to ten per cent articles
which now pay fifteen, &c, &c.
The twenty per cent. schedule includes raw
silk and some descriptions Of medicines and dye
stuls. We now receive over seven million dol
lars duties upon manufactured and unmanufac
tured silk. The lists are very full, and fifteen
per cent. is placed upon all uhencumbered arti'
cles.
Salt, which under the present tariff as an emu
merated article pays twenty per cent, is to be
admitted free Of duty. The tree-list takes in all
the articles now admitted free, well as many
articles now in the lower list Of duties. 1t also
includes certain Gyeslufs and medicines.
1t is estimated that this tariff will yield reye-
nue. of about forty-five millions.

Cuba.

The Washington Union, in the course OF an Cd
torial on the Alricanization of Cuba, says
. The statistics Of the slave trade show how
quietly the coasters of Great Britain lave looked
upon that horrid traffic so far as Cuba is concern
ed. The United States have vigorously arrested
and annihilated the African slave trade with he-
people since 1905; and England, who Processes
to be so anxious to put end to it between Gu
ba and Brazil, refuses to consent to the acquisi-
ton of the former by this country, although fully
aware that such acquisition Is the only way
effcctuaily and forever to annhilate that traffic
In proof of this, witness the fact obtained from
unimpeachablc records now before the British
Parliament, that, with all the boasted vigilance
of the English cruisers sent to annihilate the slave
trade. there have been carried from Africa into
the Island Of Cuba forfy-thTee thovsald four hun
dred and atncty-Hile negroes. This number COM
priscs those only known to have been introduced
into Cuba, Estimates based npon the highest
authority, show that the negroes clandestinely
carried into Cuba from Africa, from 1871 to the
present day amount TO the number of about fifteen
thousand sUery year The number imported in'o
Brazil for the same period, was three hundred and
twentY fre Thousand sir hIaadI ed and trenty-fre.

Acquisition of the Sandwich Islands

In connecting upon the probability that ncgo-
tiations have been resumed by our government
for the acquisition of the Sandwich Islands, and
the prospect of their successful termination, the
Detroit Free Press says:
''Should the administration neglect favora-
bic opportunity to obtain these islands, it would
be Justly liable to the charge of want of wise
forecast. We have hitherto shown that the is
landers cannot long maintain an independent gov
ernment-that they are dwindling away-that
they will, within comparatively few years, be-
come extinct as a race. The islands must pass
into the hands ofsome one Of the powerful nations
of the earth. Such being the case, what is the
interest and duty of the United States ? Is it to
let England, or France, or Russia possess them,
and hold them as a commanding naval station {?
We apprehend not.
The day i'll come when the commercial inter-
ests of this country will be as great on the Paci-
fic as they on the Atlantic-when our trade
will be more valuable with the nations of the far
east than with the nations of Eurere When
that day does come, the possession of the Sand
wich Islands will be Of the utmost moment, as
aflording not only position which will give us
the naval supremacy of the Pacific, but as fur
nishing depot for coal for our steamers and of
supplies for every description that will plough
the great ocean, as halfway house between A
merica and Asia.
- We have no fear that the administration will
neglect its duty in this relation President Pierce
came into office with misgiyings as to the con-
sequences Of acquisition of territory-such ac-
quisitions must, in the nature of things,
strengthen--not weaken us-as one of the great

SOME MORE Know NoTHINGIsM-Th Know
Nothings are multiplying in all quarters, and
among all sorts of people. 1t seems that the CO.
lored race have caught the fever at Harrisburg.
and instead of being considered thick headed"
as formerly, the faculty now pronounce them to
be empty headed, perfect ''Know-Nothings.
A family from the far South passing through
there lately with a fine portly woman servant,
had an excellent opportunity OF ascertaining the
extent of their diseased minds. On Sabbath
morning about breakfast-time, the woman dis
appeared in the twinkling ofan eye, andalthough
there were a number of fcolored servants near, not
one of them knew anything of departure or of
her whereabouts. All every one had taken the
fever in its most alarming form, and strange to
tell, DIR. Rutherford, usually promptly physi-
clan, refused attendance the plea THAT it was
a very safe disease of the brain--that the less
these poor untortunates knew, the less they would
have to answer for. -
