The Philadclphians have for some time been
engaged in getting upa Centennial celebra-
ton of the Declaration of Independence. Doubt
less the motive that prompted the idea was a
good one, but now comes circular calling up
on all patriotic citizens, without, We suppose,
reference to race &C., to subscribe ten mtllton
l,ars, in order to make the affair "a success,
AM that Philadelphia -the city that is to reap
all III, advantages, or the State of Pennsylva-
MIA. may not seem selfish, or appear to contain
all the patriotism in the land it is graclousy
permitted that the people Of any and all the
other States may become participants, and take
o, The stock as much as they may see tlt Stock
Is to lie issued and subscriptions regularly made
as 10 railroad companies or any other regu-
i;,rly incorporated association, and quld pro
ana given;for though many have found, to their
sorrow, that patriotism-the basis upon which
the stock is issued, does not pay, yet, OF late,
immense fortunes having been made out Of
that commodity, in offering this pecuuiary in.
iucement stimulus is given to the aD1oi
,,rtrin. How much of this stock is likely to be
taken in Virginia we DO not know, but we
should think if Philadelphia wanted to get ur
big show for her own benefit, she should
be patr;otic enough to foot the bill ofexpenses
and then make handsome sum besides. At
least we don't think our people will have any
objection to letting her try it, and, when II
comes off, if any want to go to see the show,
Of course they will. when they get there, take
as much or little Of the stock as their patriotic
feelings on the occasion, will permit. Until
then there will be no rush, for the stock BY
our people, we feel sure, and Is is a long way
otf-longer than we, in this section, can lay out
Of our little surplus change, though we are
