THE MASS MEETING.
LhLjE-ZZ
A Good Ready Made for Another
Start.

Agreeable to the call of the presi
, dent and secretary OF the genera
committee, which has been actin,
heretofore with view to celeb1a
ton on the Fourth OF July. there wa
good turnout lasG night, at thj
Federal Court Room. The meeting
vas called to order by General Bane
and Colonel Sells elected chairman,
with Christ pher Delhi and I. Trun. he
as secretaries. At the request OF the
chair Gen. Bane stated the 90
ject for the call, which is substap-
TALLY as published in these colnmns
a couple OF mornings ago; and be
also moved that it was the sense OF
the meeting that a celebration be
had. He spoke 10 bis motion, as did
others, the tenor OF the remarks be-
ing that il a general celebration
could not be had, it would be at least
as general as al desired; every person
VINO felt patriotic enough TO come
forward and celebrate the national
birthday OF the rtpublic, no matter
what his politics. religion or color
migst be, Was heartily III tied and
the warm haud OF good fellowship
would be extended to him. At this
poin; 1t was urged that, while no one
was opposed to q celebration, it
would hardly be proper to expend the
money that had been subscribed for
this new celebration, when the whole
tone OF all the meetings had been,
and under that tone, though not ex-
pressed, this money had been do
mated, that the celebration, il had at
all, should be general one. Il was
therefore moved and carried that
those who had subscribed heretofore
be fully released and that an entirely
new subscription list be started. The
motion OF Gen. Bsne that we do cele-
brate was carried with pretty general
unanimity. as did every motion favor
ing the celebration. a motion that
there be no procession was lost, and a
subsequent motion that there be a /
procession, made that the question
OF having such q display might be
thoroughly discussed, VAS referred tol
a general committee, already ap-
pointed, in order that this committee
might consider the matter, Inquire
into its expediency and act IS its
judgment should direct.
The discussion was very free and |
brought to the surface d great deal of
overlooking patriotism, which in such |
occasions stands as a synonym for
noise; and all points made of a |
patriotic nature were loundly ap.
Dlauded. Those present were with
very few exceptions, if any, of one
mind for celebration OF whatever
Kind, so that it was a celebration,
While every effort will doubtless be
made to have it as general and excel
ent 40 possible. A motion made by
Ir. Smell also carried that the general
be instructed to invite the
jlty Council, all the secret and other
ocieties, clubs, mechanics and other
associations, and the business men
to join at their own expense.
