THE FOURTH OF JULY.

The 85th anniversary morning of our
national independence broke on the world
calm and serene. Not single cloud
darkening the cerulian vault of heavens S
fair dome, and nature seemed to rejoice
in the general anthem that twenty nils
lions Of free people were about to chant
In glad chorus, upon the return of day,
hallowed in the history Of the United
States, as TIE one that gave birth to the
American Republic.
Long before the the first b lushes Of
Aurora, had mantled the eastern holi
zon. or the golden orbed god OF day had
shown his face from his night slumbers,
was the day ushered in by the tones OF
the 10 I'D mouthed cannon, reverberating 9
over the plains, and answered back by
the echolng notes from the surrounding
forests. The interem between the Ma,
tional Salute, which was being fired by
the gun squad. was enlivened by tho
Brass Band, discoursiug in their best
manner some of cur National airs. AS
time were on the streets began to wear a
lively appearance, and hour after hour

OF the county, who had come up, to take

AT 10 O'Clock the procession was form

marshall, assisted by his aids, and soon
the line was put in motion, headed by the
brass band, and after marching through
the principle streets of the village, pro-
eeeded to the Grove, where the exercises
were opened, with prayer by Rev. Mr.
Holiday. Hon. R. McKely then read
the Declaration of Independence, afte,
which John Berry Esq, pronounced tbe
oration. The oration was in keeping with
the times in which we live, and was ad

Effort. and fne production. These ex,

FANTASTIC'S.

Our citizens were refreshed on the fouth
OF July, by the appearance in our streets,
mounted on horseback, of a company Of
originals, whose personals were hid by the
garbs they had assumed, and the masks,
which hid from view their faces 1t was
decidedly the erent of the day, and drew
forth from the crowd, uproarious burst of
applause. They paraded our streets in
real military style. commanded by lis
honor Myor Blaek Face, who gave ev
dence OF being an adept in the work his
men had committed to his hands. Upon
the whole it was funny affair. Men
full Of fun and sport engaged in it, and
they made every b dy feel funny that was
privilaged to look at lem; and added tc
the enjoyment of the day.
