THE GLORIOUS.
TIE DAY WE CELEBRATE" HAS COME
ROUND ONCE MORE.
Notable Decrease in the Amount Of Gunpowdsr
Burned in the Preliminary Exercises, bat
Lively Tina This MOrning-How To-
Day Will Be Spent.

Up to midnight last night the indica-
tions were that this particular Glorious
Fourth would be characterized by
diminutiou in the amount OF guupowder
aud manufactures thereof, as they say
in the tariff bill, consumed; by a pro-
portionate falling of in the number OF
accidents and incipient CONGREGATIONS,
and by 8 corresponding increase in the
gross amount of real pleasure and en-
joyment.
But about FIVE minutes previous to
the awful hour when graye-yards yawn,
etc., a very fair amount OF racket was let
loose in the community, and for the
sixty minutes or so next ensuing people
who were awake in the business
part OF town were entirely willing
TO agree with the late and la
mented A. Lincoln that very
erroneous conclusions may be drawn
from seemingly sound premises. This
sudden fear of the usually noisy Fourth
was brought into being by the scattered
explosions of few of the ordinary ire
crackers Of commerce. At first 1T was
no bigger than adlcer hat; but as Smith
& Wesson revolvers and jackson crack
ers joined in, the premonitory symptoms
of a feeling that an error had
been made grew with astonishing
rapidity, and as few gross OF the new
patent fire crackers, which have the
energy OF feld-piece stored up within
an astonishingly small space, joined In
the tumult and disorder, the misgivlng
crystalized into a certainty with sud
den Jolt which fractured many bright
hope Of "a quiet Fourth" into very mi
mute fragments. and henceforth the
worst was 10 be feared.
