Carriages with the President Of the
Day, c. J. Lansing, Esq, the Orator OF
the Day, Rev. II. D. Lathrop, Reader Of
the Declaration OF independence, Conrad
Wicgand, Bsq., and the Chaplain, Rev.
Mr.. Shaw, were also in the procession,
which was brought up by citizens on
horseback, under the marshalship Of H.
c. Blanchard, Esq.
The Marshals Of the Day were dressed
in a regulia that would have done credit
to the Grand Marshal Of the city Of New
York. Their horses were literally
covered with gold and silver lace.
After the procession had paraded
through Telegraph, Blanchard and Main
streets, down to lower Gold Hill as far
as the Imperial mill, and counter
marched the latter street as far as the
Tunnel Road, it proceeded to the Pa
yilion, at Fort Homestead. The interior
Of tho building wns neatly decorated
with evergreens, flags, ETC., and nearly
all the seats were covered with canvass;
while the building was airy and pleas
ant for the literary exercises OF the
occasion. The seats in the building
were nearly all filled by ladies and gen.
tlemen, and by the time the Car OF State
was emptied Of its fairy load, the officers
of the day, the musicians and the out
side crowd had gathered inside, the
Pavilion presented rs comfortable, as
handsome, and as patriotic an appear
ance for the Fourth Of July, as it has
been our pleasure to witness, 10, these
many years.
The literary exercises. opened with a
very neat, chaste, and really elegant
address by the President Of the Day, c.
J.. Lansing, Esq. After which came
music By the brass band, prayer by the
Chaplain, reading Of the Declaration,
with some excellent Introductory re-
marks on the same, by Mr.. Wiegaud
singing BY the State Car children; a
poem, by Capt. Wier, Of American City;
music, vocal and instrumental; IN Ora
ton By Rev. Mr.. Lathrop, etc. We
shall endeavor TO find roof in the NEWS
tomorrow for the Poem and Oration.)
Thus passed the Fourth Of July, 1867,
in Gold Hill-iu all soberness, candor,
honesty, and patriotism. The local,
our home. celebration was a success;
and when another year rolls around,
with the continued blessings Of health,
prosperity and honest, patriotic hearts,
may the same success attend our second
attempt TO celebrate the Fourth Of July
in the town Of Gold Hill.
