WEDNESDAY, MORslss, July 70, 1851.

....:M ARTINsBURG.,.~

Tuesday Of last week the anniversary o
our national independence was celebrated By
the sabbath schools Of our town. The morn.
ing was bright and beautiful, and at m early
hour hundreds Of the 9 infantry Of Martins.
burg neatly dressed in their holiday sui',werc
seen hurrying to and fro, eager for anticipa.
ted enjoyment at The sylvan retreat selected
FOR The exercises Of the day. About 9o'clock
the schools were formed into procession at
their respective places Of meeting and con-
Quoted to the public square, where after an
appropriate hymn bad been sung BY the
schools united, composed Of between four
and Eve hundred children with their teach
ers, the line was formed under the marshall
ship Of Col. T.. p. Hunter, and proceeded
to the grove ofthc Hen. G.. j. Faulkner, about
q mile south Of town. Here everything that
could eonduce to the comfort and pleasure Of
the children and the large coneourse of la
dies and gontlenon assembled, had been pro-
sided by the. committee of arrangements.
On arriving at the grove the President of
the day D. Ii. Conrad, Esq, assumed bis
position, aud announced the order of exerci-
ses. Pray r was then offered by the Rev.
r. A. Fink another appropriate hymn be-
ing sung BY the children, Mr.. Conrad made
o brief address to the children, full Of excel
lent sentiment and sound advice, Nh. Conrad
having concluded, the children. we're intro
duccd and performed the parts assigned them
in the exercises of the day, singing, ~recita-
tons, &C., doing great credit to themselves,
end teachers. The morning exercises of the
children being ended, Peyton Il. Harrison,
Esq, was introduced, aud delivered an ad-
dress replete with sound sentiment, beautiful
in conception, pure and chaste in d~iction, and
ab~undantly worthy tie speaker and the &C.
casicn.
After Mr.. Harrison's address the children
in the order prescribed repaired to the diu-
ner tables, which by the generous libcrality
Of our citizens had been abundantly supplied
with every thing that could be desired );
which seemed to be highly appreciated and
judiclously appropriated by the little partic-
ipants. Dinner being over, and the wants
OF all both great and small, being well sup
Piled. all again collected around the stand
to listen to further excellent exercises BY the
children, which being concluded the Rev.
WIN. Evans addressed the audience. Mr..
Evans speech was highly appropriate and ell
oquent, thus closed the exercises of this de-
ligntfal day, all seeming pleased and happy
that this mode of spending the fourth Of
Jnly had been adopted.

and while it has many os the picturesque
qualities Of our capital city, it has the adj
vantage Of a view Of immediate cliffs of great

offers liberal inducements to settlers, and thai
already many lots are sought for. La due

main Pacific road will pass near the falls

this beautiful spot in the i%sterior, elevated

LABOR LOST.

To many of the soldiers Of the war of 1872,
who Voluntarily left their homes and business,
and marched to the defence OF Baltimore in
1872. the general government has most lib-
eraHy given forty acres Of land-and this is
considered an ample rccompense for services
considered most essential at the time, and
which cost the individuals who thus pafriot-
ically came forward for the protection Of the
: beauty and booty Of our city from a ruth
less foe. more money than the land given is
worth in the market. About forty dollars is
about the estimated value placed upon pat
rio.ism by our rnlers-whilst one hundred
aud sixty are no: deemed more than adequate
to compensate the very men perhaps, against
whom Americans had to contend, for honor
ing this country with their presence.
We see that some Of the soldiers of 1912
are petitioning Congress for increased COM
pensation. 1t is labor lost. Most of those
old soldiers will soon disappear from the
earth and be forgotten. Indeed. they are
now only remembered as old iogies who were
foolish enough to risk their lives to defend
their country against a foreign foe; and cur
rulers seem to be in no temper to be remin-
ded of past services. To petitions for com.
pensation they are likely to receive the re-
ply of Richard to the Duke of buckingham.
to whom ho was indebted for the throne which
be occupied-'I'm b~usy-thou troublest me
I'm not in the vein.' Congress is not III
the vein to grant an act of justice to Amer
leans, but willingly bestow the public land
upon foreigners who never performed the
slightest service to the country.
We hope that the veterans of 1912 will
cease to importune Congress on this subject.
To msny of them no doubt. a hundred dol
lars would uuc a most acceptable relief; but
il should BIO dispensed witA, sooner than be
received from those gho wD1id grant 1T grId
gingly. Our country will. at some future
period, require the voluntary service OF pat
riots but the treatment received by the sol
diers Of 1872. will have Its influence in cool
ing the ardor Of those wha may then feel dis
posed to volunteer. lpgratitude always has
its reward and so it will be in respect to
the ungrateful return made for the services
Of the soldiers of the jast war with Englsna.
The Scripture says. that the meat Of the
children should not be given to the dogs;
but our rulers do not act upon this principle f;
for they had rather east the meat TO the
dogs than give it to nourish those who have
helped to preserve TO them a eountry over
which 10 rule. But the end is not yet
Time will produce wonderful changes. and
among them the expulsion from power Of
those who are counting tho support Of for
eiguers by donations Of public land. whilst
Americans who sbouldered their muskets in
the hour of peril, are passed by with neglect
and contempt. The day of reckoning will
come. when the remnant Of tie soldiers of
1872 will at least have the satisfaction to as.
sist in bunting the iugrates from power, and
placing better men in their situations .-BaH.

VERDICT OF THE JURY.
Coroner Chalmers held an inquest over
four Of the bodies on the night Of the acci-
dent. The jury met yesterday to agree up
on their verdict, which they rendered as fol-
lows
After fully considering the evidence in
the late collision case. the jury ind-lst
That the special orders issued TO conductors
running excursion and other trains between
Baltimore and a point on the Susquehanna
Railroad known as Riders Switch on the
day Of the 4th Of July last, should have been
more explicit on the occasion. I'd That
YIN. Scott, conductor, wes running without
due precaution aud QUE Of time; therefore
the jury view the catastrophe as one origi-
mating from negligence Of the erossest posi-
bic nature, and that the Susqueianna Rail
road Company is highly ceusurable. aud
should be held ameuable to the next Grand
Jury of Baltimore county for causing the
