ST. LOUIS, July 6.-Indspendsnos day
vas more generally observed yesterday
than it has been for several years. There
was no public display, but every psrsoa
seemed intent upon . celebration Of hi
own. Business vas almost sntirsly s0A.
pended, and the day Was devoted %
pleasure and hilarity. 4 national saluAs
was fred at o'clock In ths morning, e.
ter which there was military procsssioe
by some newly organised companies
steamboat and railroad excursions, and
picnics so numerous that the city seemed
almost depopulated. Many Thousands Of
people went 70 the country 70 spend the
day. At 4 o'clock in the afternoon .
salute Of one hundred guns was fred, and
at night the streets were oil ablaSs with
bon6res and fireworks Of oil descriptions,
and all classes, ages and sexes, joining
in the jubilee with unusual ssst and spisiG
Several accidents occurred during the
serious. Among which were the danger.
ously wounding Of N. A. Field, while sit
ting in her house, by . stray ball from Q
pistol fred by boy In the street, and the
severe injury ofa boy by IN accidental
discharge Of three barrels Of . pistol the
balls entering into his thigh and shattsr.
ing one of his hands. During the after.
noon, carpenter shop on Sixteenth street
took fire from Are crackers. The flames
spread TO Ave two story buildings des-
troying them! The total los was about
$4,000, partially insured. The buildings
werc mostly tenement houses, and the oc-
cupants were spending the day In the
country, but returned at night 70 ind
themselves homeless, and their furniture
ruined. Two or three other smsli nres
occurred during the day.

Sterling Advice.

A lady makes some sensible suggcs-
tons, in II London journal, on the
subject OF marriage or celibNcy, few of
which We annex, and say that there is
Il good deal of tuthin them:
"Whcn girl marrics she ought, to IL
certain extent, to give up hemcquaint-
nncos, and consider the company of her
husband the best company she can
have. The young wife must learn cook
ing carefully, il she does not already
have n good knowledge oft. There are
many excellent cookery books, but she
must not follow them implicitly My
own plan, for some time after | WINS
married, WIS to take some recipe given,
and note carefully what ingredients
could be dispensed with. The second
time l generally managed it at half the
expense. A useful plan is to keep n
blank book in the kitchcn-tablc drawer,
and whenever deviation from the
orthodox cookery book is made, to jOt it

ed your hands ; let the book he finger
marked rather than lose nm idea. You
will thus learn more of household econ
omy than il You trust to memory alone !;
and when your daughters grow up, what
fund of practical information it will be
for them
"T0 great extent, the cclibacy Of
our young men is owing to the way in
which girls are brought up. Through
mistaken kindness, mothers often them
selves do what they ought to make their
daughters do. Let them teach house
keeping on fixed, mcthodical plan, and
they will then learn their history, French
and music all the better. It is natural
and right that mother should wish to
see her daughters well educated and even
highly accomplished ; and it is n mistake
that good and careful education should
unfit a girl for the homely duties oil, cook
ing, busting, etc. On the contrary,
those duties would be better performed
il mothers would, at the same time that
they seek talented instructors for their
daughters, impart to them some of their
own culinary talent; there would be
more wives and marriages. Little girls
should be taught, rs early ms possible,
TO perform simple household duties
neatly; and rs they grow older, let
them become gradually acquainted with
the theory Of housekeeping in such IL
manner that, when they are married,
they will be able to adapt themselves to
their circumstances, and be useful MS
