BOTTLE TELEGRAPH BUs1NBss.-Here-
tOfore we have had but one telegraph of
fee in the city, which has been supposed
to be capable of doing all the business.
Hereafter we are to have four offices in
different parts of the city. The United
States Telegraph Line. which has recently
put up its lines and established an office
on Main street, above the Merchants and
Mechanics Bank, is about to establish two
more, one at the MOLure and another at
the Grant House. The idea is to obtain
the hotel patronage, and render the lines
convenient for the public accommodation.
The United States Company is certainly
manifesting great deal of enterprise, and
appears to be highly deserving of success.

While the transports were waiting for
the war ships the first three days, the
rebels sent down heavy reinforcements to

to assist the fort against attack.

Davis accuse him in the most open and
vehement manner of being the cause of all
their recent disasters, and they in turn are
charged by Jef's organs with destroying
confidence in the ability Of the Confederacy
to achieve independence, preventing full
enforcement of CONSUMPTION and encourag-
ing desertion.

NEW York, Jan. 1.-The Richmond
Wing in an article on England, says she
has no ships that could encounter the Yan
kee monitors with any prospect of sue.
cess, and although she might build such
vessels, the probability is that they could
not cross the ocean. She could not even
break up the blockade, far less send an

therefore hardly worth while to think of
returning to English Vassalage.

The Celebration.

Now that it is settled that we are to
have an appropriate celebration on the
4th of July, we trust our people will
make the celebration worthy of them
selves and the occasion. This peopla
have reason to feel proud of thar Gov
ernment--they ought to feel liberal
Nothing appears more ridiculous than
an attempt TO celebrate a great anniver-
sary without liberal expenditure Of
muscle and money. Labor is required
money is absolutely necessary. FIVE
intend to get up 6 procession with tri-
umphal cars, arches and appro-
pirate decorations, money has to be
spent. We regret to learn that the opin-
ion is prevalent in some quarters that
the $4,000 appropriated by the City
Council and County Commissioners is
all the means necessary to make tha
celebration a success. This we are sure
is q mistake. II may be sufficient to
provide eatables for the people who will
be on the ground to partake of the din
ner, but it will be altogether inadequate
for that and the contemplated decorA-
tons aud fire works. We would
prefer having no celebration at all
to a niggardly one. AS journalists
we think it is unjust to compel rs to
make up, in our report of the eelebra-
ton, regardless Of the wear and tear of
conscience, the want of iberality on
the part of our citizens in their prepara-
tons and arrangements. Nor do we
propose to do so. We feel confident
there will be no necessity for ii. Our
people never have failed in anything of
the kind they have undertaken.
If we have fireworks on the evening
of the Fourth, they must be ordered by
the FIRST of next week. A Fourth of
July celebration without fire. works would
be an anomaly, an abortion. But the
committee do not feel authorized to or
der fireworks until they know where the
money is to come from to pay for them.
We are satisfied if the Committee on
Finance win call on the people the
money win be paid over cheerfully, and
we will be able to rejoice in one of the
grandest pyrotechnical displays ever
witnessed in the city. We hope the
conmittee will not be backward in call
ing on the people. Each man can spare
a little; some can spare good deal and
not seriously feel it Let everybody feel
q personal interest in the matter, as
they ought, and the proposed celebration
will be a grand success
