The Ninety-fffh Anniversary of American
Independence.

The Ninety-nhh Anniversary of American
Independence.
On Tuesday next will be celebrated all over
the United States the ninety-fifth anniversary
OF American independence. The forthcoming
will probably be one of the grandest celebra-
tons of the national anniversary that ever
occurred in the country.
From time commencing as far back as the
first anniversary, the Tammany Society, or
Columbian Order, will celebrate the return of
independence Day with their usual en-
thusiasm. The big chiefs of Tammany will
see that the celebration will be one in which
all Americans, and all who adopt American
republican institutions, can take pride.
esquire" Sweeny, ''Boss" Tweed, Jerome
Buck and others will do some handsome things
on the occasion-for which see Tammany Hall
programme for the Fourth. The city au-
thorities are also taking an interest in the
celebration. The First division of the Ma
tional Guard, Major General Shaler COM
manding, will parade, as will be seen from
the following:-

DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC PARKS. June 81, 1871.
AT AT meeting Of the Executive Committee Of the
Department OF Public Parks held on the 26th inst,
the following resolution was adopted
Resolved, That on July a. 1871, there shall be
places in the cty:-Tompkins square, Mount Morris
square, City Hall Park Madison square, Kingsbridge
the display of fireworks music snail be furnished as
usual. The whole subject being referred to the
Treasurer with power.
In addition to the Tammany Hall celebra-
ton and the military parade there will also
be a gala festival on the grounds of the Boule-
ward Club, on the Hudson, including salutes,
liberty-pole raising, an grafton by General
James r. O'Beirne, speeches by distinguished
citizens, and fireworks and bonfires in the
evening. This, undoubtedly, will prove one
of the most interesting features of the cele-
bration of the ninety-fifth anniversary of in
dependence.
Beside these demonstrations there will be
the grand national regatta at Cape May, in
which most of the fast yachts of the New York
Yacht Club, with others, will join. This will
be splendid display-the finest that has ever
been witnessed under canvas in honor of the
glorious day in American or any other waters.
Hence we are ready to affirm that, so far as
the metropolis of the country is concerned,
there is every assurance that the forthcoming
national jubilee will be one in which we all
can do honor aud take pride.

The MINISTERIAL CRISIS 10 Spain is all over,
30 says our cable despatch from Madrid.
The whole difficulty seems to have been origi
mated by Minister Moret, who proved OBJ
stinate on some pet financial measure of his
own, while the Cortes was equally resolute in
rejecting il. The difficulty has now been
smoothed over by mutual concessions. The
threatened resignation Of the Ministry caused
no end Of troubles to the young King, who
shrinks from the possibility of losing bis
present trusty advieers, considering the many
dsngcrs-conspiracies already hatched or In
The course Of hatching-by which be is sur

AN IMPORTANT FAMILY MEETING will be
that OF the Grown Prince of Germany and
wife dhe Princess Victoria of England) with
the British Queen and royal family, arranged
to come off in England in the coming autumn.
Perhaps Prince Bismarck has found It expe-

his amiable wife and the children in order to
convince Her Majesty's Cabinet and people
that no such filibustering programme as that
suggested in the fanciful Battle Of Dorking"

Or THE INTERNAL REVENUE yet in the hands
of collectors, or, rather, not yet paid into the
Treasury, the greatest amount is that col
lected by Andy Johnson's appointees, it OK
ceedng that in the hands Of President Grants
by over million and half and that in the
hands of President Lncoln's by nearly nail
lion. If one fact of Johnson's administration
remains more prominently confirmed than an
other it is the failure to collect the revenue.
1t is failure, too, that will plague US long
after we have recovered from his genial
swings around the circle and his injudcious
tuition and things.

THE FISHERIES QUESTIONS. Minister Thorn
ton assures the American government that
there need be no anxiety among American
fishermen in regard 70 any disturbance by
British officials in the Canadian fishing
grounds. There will be no trouble whatever,
provid ID the Americans obey all the require
ments of the old treaty, the headland con-
struction being surrendered. The new treaty
will soon take effect, and there will be no
more trouble; bnt until then, says the Min
lister, be patient and obey the laws.

Secretary BeTknap's Speech nc Princetou.
The Grafton delivered at Princeton before
one Of the college societies by Hon. VIII
liam W. Belknap, Secretary of War, at the
annual commencement, was production Of
much finish and eloquence, and gave
some striking suggestions of the growth
of the American empire. The orator,
after reviewing the earlier scenes Of
Princeton's classic history, and doing fittiag
homage to the illustrious dead-to Dickin-
son and Edwards and Witherspoon and Car
nahan-wh0se genius and character had
moulded the institution and whose couasels
had safely guided its early course, pointed out
in glowing terms ''the advantages offered in
America for success in life of educated men"
This somewhat novel theme was ably treated
by the distinguished War Secretary. His esti-
mate of the rapid strides of this country in
population and power, aud in all that gives.

gressive and far-reaching mind and the destiny
which awaits the diligent and patient youth

The British Ratification Of the Great
Treaty.

The British Ratification Of the Grcat
Treaty.
The London Gazette announces that the
Publications Qhe United States and Great
Brittany of the Treaty of Washington were
exchanged on the 18th inst, and that COM
missioners will shortly be named on the part
of England to carry the stipulations into
effect All British subjects having claims
against the United States are requested to
prefer them within six months from the first
meeting of the commission. So far so good.
Now begins the real work of the treaty-the
work of the several boards of arbitration pro-
vided for.
First of all, however, in reference to the
Northeastern fishery arrangements and the
reciprocities entered into in connection with
our navigation of the st. Lawrence canals,
her Majesty's government will have to bring
Her provincials of the New Dominion to a
ratification. Those provincials have no better
opinion of the treaty than has General Butler.
They think that in the matter of the fisheries
the treaty gives them up to the ravages Of the
Yankees, and Butler thinks that the effect of
the treaty will be the ruin of his Glouces-
ter fishermen in Goldfish, halibut and mack
erel, even in their own waters and
their own markets. We presume, how
ever, that, with Her Majesty's provincials,
British loyalty will rise superior to local
prejudices and objections, and that there will
really be very little difficulty in bringing
around even the warlike Nova Scotians and
Prince Edward Islanders to ga happy accord"
with the imperial government.
There is another matter, however, upon
which the interested parties are doomed to a
crushing disappointment. We refer to the
matter of those bonds of the so-called Confede-
rate States cotton loan, and to the holders
thereof. Those unfortunate men seem to
think that the provisions of this treaty cover
these good-for- nothing rebel cotton loan bonds !;
but this overdrawn conceit is great mistake
Those bonds are thrown out past all redemp-
ton by the constitution of the United States
fourteenth amendment), and there is no help
for them. They are really worth no more than
ship which has gone down to the bottom OF
the sea without insurance. But still, as
drowning men will catch at straws, the holders
of these rebel cotton loan bonds are bound to
try their chances under this new treaty Walk
in, then, gentlemen, but don't be too proud.

A DISPUTED YACHT RAoE.-The owner of
the yacht Columbia, Mr.. Frank Osgood,
claims that the yacht Madeleine has been
wrongfully awarded the prizes in the regatta
of the Brooklyn Yacht Club on Tuesday last.
He asserts that there has been gross error
in timing the arrival of the two vessels at the
home stakeboat, and asks that the same be
corrected and the award fairly made. No
doubt the protest of Mr.. Osgood will receive
proper attention, and if it is discovered that
the grounds therefor are sufficient his claim
will be allowed. tits a pity that mistakes of
this kind should ever occur when they are
so easily avoided They tend to mar the
pleasures Of the race; they sometimes beget
i'll feeling and often cause unpleasantness that
should never exist. We hope the present
little difficulty will soon be cleared up to the
satisfaction Of all concerned.

The New French Loan-Its Wonderful
SucCcsa.

The New French LOUn-lts Wonderful
Success.
We learn by cable telegram that the new
French loan has been covered and the SUBJ
scription lists closed. Not only was the
whole amount required raised, but facts go to
prove that had it been double the amount it
would have been as easily obtained. The
French people have responded grandly to the
call of their country. Even the peasants and
servants, and those who are dependent on
their daily toll for living have come forward
with their hard-earned savings and placed
them at the disposal Of the nation. Acts such
as these reflect the patriotism of q people far
more than the noisy bellowings Of demagogues
in town meetings. Severe as have been the
disasters of the French nation, and Inundated
as it has been, the people have, by this dis
play Of their patriotism, shown disposition
10 repair the former, and, in prosperous
future, to drown the recollections of the
latter. The prompt manner in which all
classes came forward proves that the French
people have every confidence in the future of
their country. A people 80 thoroughly i'm
bued with a spirit of determination and
patriotism will not hesitate to make any
sacrifice to redeem their country from the
position to which she has fallen, owing to the
disasters and losses in the war with Germany,
and, later still, In her struggles with the
wretches who famed the revolutionary fame
in Paris into blaze which threatened the
capital with humiliation. Give the French
masses-and by this we mean the whole ma
large towns, but the whole population of
France government which will secure to
them peace and the pursuit OF. happiness in
honest, industrious employment and they will
prove themselves capable of regenerating their
country by developing her vast resources, cul-
tivating her untitled fields and setting
in motion the whole machinery of in
dustry throughout the length and breadth
of the land. This is the mean
ing of the outfowing of the savings
of the people to meet the demands of
the nation. 1t displays a love of country
which redeems many defects Of national char
acter. While other nations are compelled to
go abroad and depend on foreign countries
for the necessary moneys to meet national de-
mands France comes forward to help France.
We see in this manifestation the first step
toward the regeneration Of nation which,
after disastrous foreign war, had to encoun-
ter domestic troubles which ct one time
threatened to engulf it in general ruin.
