The Fourth.

The glorious Fourth was the merriest day
our city ever saw. The whole town was
ablaze with bonfires, fire. works aud new
fags all the night before, and when the day
was ushered in with the joyful ringing Of the
bells it found good portion Of our people
wide awake and waiting for its coming The
National salute at sunrise, formed but small
portion of the noise made by gun-powder ex-
plosions even at that early hour. The city
presented gay and patriotic appearance
with its profuson of flags flying in numbers
never known before in its holiday crowds of
children bearing miniature editions of the
same national emblem; in the cracking Of
small arms, Chinese crackers, torpedoes, etc,
set off by Young America, and in the general
expression Of good feeling which was visible
on the faces of all who went upon the streets
The day was excessively hot, owing perhaps
to the general stirring up Of the fires of patri-
otc ardor, but the people seemed to have no
idea of being housed on that account, and
went on with the universal celebration in the
good old fashioned way.
At little before o'clock the first public
ceremony took place, on First street, in front
Of the Merchants Hotel, viz the presentation
by the ladies of Marysville of magnificent
silk American flag, to the Marysville Rifles.
The presentation speech was made by G. L.
Fikins, Esq and was one Of the finest efforts
ever made on such an occasion. 1t was full
Of deep feeling and enthusiastic devotion to
tleman was briefly responded to by Lieut.
Coult (the officer in command-Capt. Theall
being too unwell to participate in any of the
ceremonies of the day. Lieut. Coult then
called the color guard to the front and deliv-
cred the flag to Ensign Dougherty, giving
him an impressive charge, to guard well the
sacred emblem. The Ensign then spoke in
substance as follows:
FELLOW SoLDIERs-I have here a sacred
token to present to you; may you ever prove
yourselves worthy of this the only banner
which we, as true American soldiers acknow-
ledge. This flag which has been wrought
| by fair and loyal hands, you pledge your sa-
CFCd HbHof W pTbiccG IDDOulu IL DuI)eu WIlIt
| am Ensign of your company that | should
be called upon to raise these colors in defence
of our countrys rights, and should finch one
inch, then brand me coward or what is
worse, traitor to my country; but if, on the
other hand, it should happen that should
fall by the hand of an enemy in defence of
these colors, feel assured that there are men
in these ranks who would gladly grasp them
and lead yon on to victory and glory.
The ceremony was very impressive one
and was conducted with the strictest pro-
priety.
Promptly at ten o'clock, in accordance
with the programme announced, the process
sion moved up D street in the following or.

which may be among the terrible evils OF the
war
The Pavilion was well ventilated and
sprinkled, and the large audience found seats
comfortably arranged. The exercises were
conducted with great propriety, and were
not too long.
The evening exhibition of fireworks was
livery creditable, and the ball, at late hour,
was an exceedingly pleasant affair
In addition to the general celebration.
everybody celebrated in an independ-
ent and individual manner, and, as we said
in the beginning of this brief report, 50 say
we now, the Fourth was the merriest day
our city ever saw.

TIE WAR AND TIE NEwspAPERs.-Th New
York Herald cf the 18th Of June, says:
1t is supposed by many that the effect oi
the war has been beneficial to newspapers
but this is entirely erroneous. In conse-
quence Of the general sthgnation of trade the
number of their advertisements has dimin-
ished, while, owing to the exciting events
connected with the war, their expense for
telegraph matter and otherwise have largely
increased. 1t is true that they have in most
eases experienced an increase of circulation :;
but, as is well known, it is not by the circu-
Iatlon OF newspaper that money is made
The consequence of this is that newspapers
have been compelled to adopt system of
economy; and as many of these led a hand
to-mouth existence before the war commenc.
ed, they may be considered to be bv this time
in very bad way indeed. As an instance
of the retrenchment to which we allude one
of the Wall street journals has found it neees
sary to reduce its size. But after all the
Northern newspapers are in a much better
way than those of the South, which, owing
to the withdrawal of Government support,
The loss Of advertising, and the non payment
of subscrip ptions. have been dying off one by
one for weeks past, so that their entire num-
beris ere this, very considerably reduced.
Moreover, those that still exist have been
driven TO ell sorts Of shifts for paper as well
rs pap and we read few days ago, in a New
Orleans journal, that to satisfy a demand for
a hundred and seventy-fge thousand pounds
Of paper daily, only seventy-fve thousand
pounds could he manufactured. Thus it will
be seen that the press at the South has shared
pretty deeply in the loss and ruin Which the
rebellion has occnsoned.

Fire Department promptly respopeed. For
a time large confagraion seemed immi-
nent, because of the combustible material of
the adjacent buildings, and of their location
on lefty Hill, difficult of ascent. rendering it
necessary to force the water through long
lengths of connecting hose. By vigorous eff
forts, however, the flames were restricted to
some half dozen wooden structures in the
immediate vicinity. The occupants generally
rescued their furniture, and no accidenls oc.

CAPTAIN CRoMwELL--DEAR SIR: My
brother, David II. Darling, a lad of sixteen,
left home and Joined your command without
the consent or even knowledge of our pa
rents. went from school TO see him last
Thursday, and stated these facts to your
second Lieutenant. Our young soldier re-
TUNED home Friday, on furlough, as he sup
posed, and seeing the effect of his conduct
upon my mother and a sick sister, gave his
consent to remain. But he is very much
afraid you will not think that he did not
promise to return in good faith, OF, to use
his own term, that he has i" backed OUT"
80 he made me promise before l returned
that l would explain it to you.
This, then, is to certify" gentlemen,
that the young Darling aforesaid has not
abated his desire in the least degree to serve
his country under your especial guidance,
although he has consented 10 devote himself
in the more humble capacity of staying az
home and minding his mother. Having
reached the advanced age Of sixteen, he
possesses the strength of Hercules, and sa-
gacity of Tacinaque, Aguliers bravery, and
the patriotism of Washington, whom you
have probably heard mentioned before.
Would that he could add to these a few of
Methuselah's superfuous years, for youth,
though no crime, is very inconvenient in
his case. OF course the advancement oI
the Black Horse Cavalry is materially re.
tarded. and its glory dimmed for a season
but whenever you are at the end of two
years, he is determined to join you. L
thou would'st take me in his place, l would
be very happy to 60. 1 believe not only in
this war, but fighting in general, and think
that if women were permitted to use knock
down argument" it would civilize not only
their mutual relations, but also their treat.
