THE FoUKrH-was celebrated in this place with
unusual spirit, and in rather an original manner,
every one going it on his own hook, and no
doubt there was as much enjoyment by the masses.
e. specially by the little folks, who amused them
selves by firing shooting crackers and exercising
their lungs, as though the day had been celebra-
ted in the usual way, by firing salutes. parading
through the streets in the hot sun and listening to
a spread eagle grafton from some new born patri-
OF or young fcdgeling, with the thermometer at
95 deg. in the shade. The day was excessively
hot and the only way comfort attainable was
by keeping quiet in shady places where the breeze
had access Some sought comfort BY drinking
ice cold lemonade and eating ice-cream in the sa-
looms But the relief obtained by this process was
only temporary As soon IS the eating and drink
ing ceased the perspiration commenced as copious
as ever. There were not many in from the coun-
try, owing in part, perhaps, to the fact that the
farmers were in the midst of their harvest, but
did not see or hear of but one two cases Of in
toxication during the day. Had there been for
NAL celebration grand scale. as some desired,
provided it did not cost them any labor or money,
there would have been a score or more OF such Ca
ses to record. After nightfall there was consld-
erablc pyrctechnic display and cannonading by in
dividuals and parties. Thu, passed off the day;
every one, doubtless, feeling as we'll satisfied with
the demonstr .tions he made of his patriotism as
though he had witnessed grand pageant gotten
up by the labor and at the expense Of a few.
