g I .Dcar Gazelle :——Suppose our wise fore-
. fathers had not signed the immortal Declara-
ration on the fourth of July, but through some
lobstinacylliad omitted it until t.he seventh or
eiglitli, what a dull. monotonous day yesterday
«had been. But thanks to their wisdom and
promptness (which, by the way, they did not
will to their hcz'_rs) we can now look forward
every. year with exciting anticipations to the
next. fourth of July. Orations are written
(or copied) promptly by the first of June ; toasts
are ready buttered and almost cold by the time.
Readers of the Declaration practise daily in
their antics from New Years; dinners public
are cooked by people private; witticisms are
hunted up and learned by heart; throats are
prepared,.and cheers stored up for use; feet
are drilled to keep pace with military proces-
sions, liy racing with engines daily; powder-
mills are rumbling, and paper rags tumbling,
all to celebrate a single act.
Now think ye, these enthusiasts, who shout
and agonize so, contemplate for a moment, the
glorious achievement oftlie original Fourth-—
the pure, devoted patriotism of those venerable
Sigiiers? Hence the t.hought I i
As nearly all the railroad companies carried
‘for half price, the neighboring towns were
pretty cuinerously represented here yesterday.
Oflcourse, the day passed off gloriously, pro-
cessionswere formed, cannons tired, and druriis
pounded. \Ve will suppose that the Oration
was a master-piece, that the dinner was a tri-
umph, and the t.oasts perfect paragons——it will
be just as well as though we heard and tasted
all.
The evening display was magniliccnt——we
did see tliat—tlie exliibitioii did honor to the
managers, to the city, and to the day they
were designed to commemorate. They‘ were
prepared by I. & J. U. Edge, Pyrotechnists,
New York.
The incidents ofthe day make enough for a
chapter. The morning was dark and misty,
auguring unfavorably, though the afternooii was
fine. The appe.ai'auco upon the Green of the
miniature, carriage that the Queen presented
to Tom Thumb, caused some coimnotion and
such a rush that the carriage, horses, driver
and all were completely swamped. Tho, Gen-
eral held his hourly levees in this city yester-
day, and not a little excitement was created in
the evening about. eight o'clock bytlie appear-
ance of the little fellow upon the shoulder of a
gentleman, who was wedging his way through
the crowd to his hotel. Of course the Gen-
eral's face and shoulders were veiled, which
only served to increase the irresistible curiosity
to behold his littleness. \Vlien the tumult «if
the evening had nearly subsided. the woaried
city was aroused by the cry of “ Fire! Fire!”
from a thousand throats. By dint of persever-
ance and tremendous lungs, the alai-mists suc-
cceded in getting two bells to ringing and one
engine in motion. It seems that- some mis-
chievous urchin, passing before the College
lmildings,liad tossed a lighted pack of crackers
into a student’s room. The bed-clothes ca uglit
fire and hence t o alarm. Fortunately, the
flames were extinguished immediately, though
with considerable loss to the strident.
A little girl about ten years old. through some
carelessness, had her br=rins blown out at the
cnnnon’s mouth, yesterday afternoon. _ Upon
viewing the awful spectacle, two men fairited
and her mother was carried off the Green al-
most a maniac. The murderous gun was very
properly taken to the lock-up and silenced for
the day. P.
Tm: Aiiric EXPICDITION has been heard
from by letter dated the 7th of June. \Ve
make use of an extract published in the Tri-
bune. The progress of the Expedition to date
had not equaled expectation in consequence of
head wind and heavy weather. In a gale on the
25th ult. the Advance parted company wit.li her
consort. On the 6th, the southern cape of
Newfoundland was mirde, and at the same
time several icebergs were fallen in with, and
on the 7th the Advance was surrounded by
some twenty of them.
