FOURTH OF july ST.4aPEDE-OuT or THE
FRYING PAN INTO THE FmE.--The aspect of
New York on independence Day Is curious
one. The city seems TO have almost entirely
changed the character Of its population, resem-
bling in this respect for the nonce, all the fea-
lures Of captured town. All the regular
residents who can get out Of II are 10 be tccn
ihrongipg The railroads. steamboats, and country
ges-fying, as it were, for their lives, and
carrying baggage or provisions according to
the length of their projected absence. In the
streets all the faces that one meets are those Of
provipcials come 10 the city, curious to say, in
the same vain hope which impels The New
Workers to quit IL. All seek to escape the
ryrotecbpc ard other noisy celebrations Of their
respective localities, and all plunge into another
phase NJ them. The patriotism Of the rising
generation will no. allow any to shirk the
temporary penalty which has to be paid for the
blessings of republican constitution. We
must ALL therefore, take our share Of 1t, with ~
much good humor and patience % we can

THE ATLANTIC TELEgRAPH.-We have no
news az yet from the Telegraph expedition. Let
us hope that the delay may verify the OLD pro
verb. II is TO be accounted for In q measure by
the weather which Is stated to have prevailed
for the last ten or twelve days. The City Of
Washington, which was boarded of Cape Race
on the I'd, reports it TO have been anything but
favorable for the purposes OF the enterprise.
The Indian Empire, which reached Halifax on
Friday encountered a severe gale on the 9th,
which must have seriously retarded the labors
Of the expedition. BY the log of the steamer
Victoria, published in another column,) II will
be seen that up to the 18th solid packs of field ice
were everywhere TO be encountered of the Banks
of Newfoundland, whilst other vessels report
meeting numerous icebergs
From these statements It may be Inferred that
the work of laying the cable had met with
slight delay, which would account for our not
having sooner received newsfrom the Telegraph
feet. It isonly asthe paying out vessels approach
The respective chores that they would be likely to
cross the track of the mail steamers. We may
be without intelligence for several days longer,
supposing the connection in mid-ocean to have
been temporarily postponedi but II IL net likely
that another week viii pass without our re-
eeiying positive news, Of some sori, seeing the
