CELEBRATING THE NATIONAL HOLIDAY
PIc-NIcs AND EXcURsIoNs-BAsE BALL.
&c.
Religion being paramount to patriot
ism, in the minds of our good people.
Sunday, the glorious fourth" was allow
ed to go uncelebrated, but as soon as
Monday morning was ushered in, the
noise and fun began:
The din of cannons and pistols cor
tlnued until day was well advanced. and
then the fire crackers and torpadoes kept
upthelr distracting racket until night
fall. Very few pistols on cannons were
tired during the day; but they were sue
cesstully substituted by immense fire
crackers, which exploded with a noise
equal to that produced by large can
non.
At an early. .hour in the morning peo-
pie We're astir. and starting out in all di-
rections to enjoy the day according to
their. different notions Of propriety, Phil
adelphia, Jersey, and various points in
the surrounding neighborhood, claimed
the presence OF many, while others at
tended the pic-nics which were held at
Rosendale and.the Shuetzen Park. The
base ball match, which came near not
being played, also drew large number
to the latter place. st. Mary's T. A. B
Society excursion to Mt. Cuba drew an
immense number OF persons to that beau
tiful place, and the remainder of our cit
ixens remained at home to keep the city
from being entirely deserted.
In the evening, fine displays of Are
works were made in various parts Of
the city, TIE largest and best being made
by Mr.. John M. Scott, No. 500 W. Fourth
street, and attracting large crowd of
observers. Councilman Thos. johnson.
No. 5l2 W. Third street, also made fins
display about 10 o'clock.
Altogether, the day was celebrated in
q very appropriate manner. The usual
drunkenness prevailed, but fights were
not SO frequent as formally, The revel-
ries were continued until late hour, ,and
it.was not until early this morning that
the city resumed its usual quiet.
During the day the fire department
was repeatedly called out, and the police
frequently had their services called into
requisition. Various casualties also oc-
CURED. all these events will be found
recorded under appropriate heads, and
perusal of them will give an idea of what
it costs, aside from pecuniary considera-
tions, to celebrate the national holiday
in q large and populous city.

School at Annapolis. visited this city

Mr.. Francis Barry took several Of

TIE CARTAGE OF PEACHES IN New
YoRK.-We find the following in the
New Sun of Tuesday:
The Hon. s. Biggs and MIR. HIN.
Willetts, representatives from a con-
vention of Delaware and Maryland
peach growers, met, delegates from the
Washington Market Cartmen's Asso-
ciation last evening, to discuss the
propriety of lowering the price of cart
age on peaches in baskets. Mr.. Charles
W. ldell presided. Mr. Biegs said that
Mr.. Willetts and himself had been en-
powered by the Peach Growers Aosso-
citation to ask for reduction of the
rates of transportation. The railroads
had already made concession, and he
hoped the carriers would do
likewise. The peach crop this year
promises to be the largest ever known.
IL is estimated that six million baskets
will come to the New York market
from the Peninsula. Mr., Biggs said
that the cost Of transportation is so
great and the profits so small that
many Of the growers must suspend un-
less they can do better this season than
IN the last two or three years. Last
year it cost about % cents to get their
peaches into the market, and all they
got was about 10 cents basket. They
ask the New York carriers to reduce
their charges from four to three cents
Il baskets. Mr.. Lusk, an employing
cartel, replied that his association had
decided TO meet the proposition half
! way They would take crates ut six
cents, a reduction Of two cents, and
charge as formerly for baskets. lie dc.
tailed the dangers and inconvenicnccs
which carmen experienced in loading
and delivering peaches. lie said that
they do better when tho crop is fair
one than when it is very large. The
carriers suffer several imposilions from
the railroads, one of which is in the
rates of ferriage. Six cents d load
more is charged for peaches and mark
ct truck than is demanded for pig iron.
Messrs. Schneider and Mccarthy ex.
planned how the carriers found it more
profitable TO carry baskets at the rcgu-
lar rate. MI. Willctts wanted the three
and a half cents for baskets and seven
cents for crates. The carriers replied
that they were not authorized by their
association TO concedc a reduction in
the price for baskets, as they could not
afford to carry them for less than four
cents"
