4th Of July which We have known and honorcd

ne will have another and more glorious 4th--with
no Yankees to corrupt it, In the meantime don't
forget the pleasant fnet, that despite his own
boasts and those of the miscogiuation press, Mr..
Grant is not spending tho day ip Richmond. No
more than Mr.. Mcclellan spent it there two years
