FOURTH OF JULY.

After considerable delay, On the part of com
mittees selected TO arrange the celebration of the
National anniversary, a conclusion has been ar
rived at satisfactory to all parties. The order of
procession and exercises of the day appear in an
other column, and every effort will be made by
the Committee of Arrangements to add to the
proper celebration of the Fourth. As will be
seen, the Hamilton Fire Department have been
assigned a position In the procession, and, we
trust that a goodly number may answer to the
~roll-call and fill the ranks. No silly chickering's
or foolish MISUNDERSTANDING should intervene
TO mar the occasion, but all should unite as one,
and lend every assistance to make this he cele-
bration in our history. We have sufficient pop
~ulation, IL consolidated, to make Il creditable
display, and sufficient funds have already been
raised to defray the expenses incident to the day.
Last year Hamilton was selected as the point for
the celebration, and 1t is only fair that our near
neighbors at Treasure should have the privilege
Of entertaining us on the coming national holt
day. Let us enter into the spirit of the thing,
and have a g-g-lorious time.
Since writing the above. we have met several
gentlemen from Treasure Hill, among them
some of the Committee of Arrangements, and
from them we learn that, In view OF the great
calamity which has visited the inhabitants of
Hamilton, they propose to contribute all the
funds in their possession In aid of those made
destitute by the late fire. This is a noble chart
ty, and in consideration Of the feeling which has
existed between the Hill and Hamilton since the
commencement of the work Of the different COM
Inittees, is certainly commendable. In this con-
~nection. we will say that anything in our power
TO accomplish for the benefit of any in need of
assistance, we are willing to attempt, and hereby
solicit any communication they please to send to
MS for publication.

n CHERRY CREEK.


George W. Doane, one Of the most persistent
and reliable prospectors in Nevada has returned
from q trip to Cherry Greek and vicinity, and
exhibited to US some specimens found by him
self In that locality. We have no hesitation In
pronouncing such rock as we seen, the richest
thai any section ever produced. and Its similar
ity In general appearance to that found In the
Comstock, leads US to the belief that q rich camp
has been discovered. The presence of PARTICLES
OF pure gold and silver, In different varieties Of
rock, prove its richness, and the quartz forma-
ton in which 1t is imbedded, adds additional
proofs as to its extent and permanent value.
George tells us that q great many miners, pros
peetors and spectators are daily making their
appearance in the new camp, and all express I'M
bounded faith In its future. The towns, foun-
dStions Of two of which have been laid, are being
built up with stores, residences, and the various
adjuncts to a mining camp, as rapidly as lumber
can be obtained for the purpose, and present ap-
pearances denote a large camp in the future.
Among the lucky owners of mining claims there
are Hunter A. Briggs. the original locators of the

RaItimore CRltle Market.

BALTIMORE, Feb. 27.-BERF CATTLE
Early in the week there was general ex'
pectatiOn Of lower prices than last week
owing 10 the presence Of but lew Eastern
dealers and the advent Of the Lent season,
bat, perhaps, owing to the advance in
Hogs, and the appearance OF Washington
dealers on the market, that tendency was
checked and there was some little activity
in the market; and though there were
higher figures reslized, yet the quality
throughout was superior 10 the offerings Of
last week, and We cannot quote any adj
vance, considering quality, unless it be in
the middle grades, on which there might
have been slight improvement.
Prices to-day for beef cattle ranged as
follows Best bceves at 50 95a7 G2; that
generally rated first quality IS 25a6 %;
medium or good fair quality 81 25a5 so;
ordinary thin steers, oxen and COWS 50 GOA
4 so; inferior and lowest grades OF cattle
so OOa0 00-general average Of the mar
ket today IS Is; extreme range OF prices
s. 50a7 &c. Most Of the sales were from
81 rs to 6 90 per 100 lbs. OF the re-
ceipts 9Sl head came from Ohio, 80 from
MARYLAND, 81 head from Pennsylvania
total receipts for the week 1000 head,
against / ,SGl last week, and $40 head same
time last year. Of the offerings 737 head
were taken by Baltimore butchets, 13S
head sold 10 Spectators for Eastern mar:
kets, 81 to York county, Pa, dealers, and
112 TO Washington City dealers-total
sales for the week 1,Ol9 head, against / 30
last week, and 1855 head same time last
year.
SHERP-There Is largeincrease in the
receipts since last week, but the demand
has been commensurate with it, and there
Is no change 10 note in the quotations.
The quality Of the arrivals generally has
been Of very good grade. Wequote lair
to extra sheep at Case per ID gross-one
very superior lot, averaging 102 lbs gross
brought 10c. Receipts this week 4d
head, against S54 last week, and l ,4SS
head same time last year.
Hoas-There is some little decrease in
tho receipts this week, as compared with
the light run OF last week, and the pens
are now quite bare, with but little pros
pect oil any heavy run in excess oil the
wants of thus market In consequence OF
these facts prices have regularly advanced
since last week, and now, with higher
prices West and in Philadelphia tho rates
here must necessarily go higher before
any reaction takes place. we quote the
last sales at 81 25a7 GET per 100 lbs net,
and 81 75aS 90 net could be realized for
prime hogs If here. Receipts this week
Bib head, against 0,0S4 last week, and
9,337 head same time last year.
