ice gorge at White River junction, VT, of

FOURTH OF JULY CELEBRATION.
"Let Independence be our Boast.' -


There is no way In which the average
American, native or adopted, can better
illustrate his devotion TO the principles
Of the day we celebrate than by
throwing OF the yoke Of the landlord,
aud rs our forefathers did that Of King
George the Third, TO "the inaliena-
BILE rights Of life, liberty. aud the pur-
suit Of happnes," add one other boon
the ownership Of the ground on which
he lives. By reference to our advertis'
ing columns, II will be seen that this gle
rious privilege is offered to those who
will pay most for it, in the sale OF several
charming little lots on Lauderdale street,
which Messrs. TrezeyaDt & Co. will on
our next Independence anniversary,
place within reach Of the successors Of
that band Of worthless who made the
Fourth Of July a memorable, yea,
never TO be forgotten day. And in after
years, when a glowing review Of the in
estimable blessings Of that great day
may have been listened to with rapture
by the multitude, doubtless some among
them will cxelaim in the fulness Of their
joy, Yes and it was on the Fourth Of
July that the deed to my happy home in
Memphis bears date" Long live the
Renublic.

Four Thing. Certain.

First-The Grand Gift Concert, in aid
of the Public Library Of Kentucky at
Louisville, will come off without fail on
the sth of July. This is as certain as
any event can be which has not already
.transpired.
Second-The ten thousand gifts Of
fered, amounting to 100000, will be
paid in full. This is as certain as human
testimony can make it, The money is
in hand, and both the management and
the bank are irrevocably pledged to a
full drawing by the following certificate:
OFFICE OF FARuERs' AND DRovERs' BANK,
LOUISVILLE. KY, April Z, 1873.
This is to certify that there is in the
Farmers and Drovers' Bank, to the credit
of the Third Grand Gift Concert, for the
benefit of the Public Library of Ken.
lucky; FIVE hundred thousand dollars,
which has been set apart by the mana
gers to pay the gifts in full, and will be
held by the bank and paid out for this
purpose and this purpose only.
r. S. VEEcH, Cashier.
Third-All the tickets will be sold.
The difficulty is no longer to sell all the
tickets, but rather to have tickets enough
to supply the demand. There are not
enough for all, and therefore those who
come first will be first supplied.
Fourth-That the result of the great
drawing will make some rich and many
happy, and that all who held tickets will
have a fair and equal chance for the
great gifts.
