The celebration of the Foarth in
this city was conducted in a very
pleasant manner throughout. At
midnight the powder salutations to
the day began, waking many a sleepy
head, in the region round about.
Early morning brought a crowd of
people, bent on enjoying the occasion.
About 10 : 30 the procession formed at
the Engine House and moved through
the principal streets in the following
order : Mayor and Council, Chief of
Fire Department and Marshal of the
day, Cornet Band, Hook & Ladder
Co Engine Co., citizens. Under the
pleasant bowery erected near he
Engine House, Hon. J. E. Xorth call

duced G. G. Bowman, Esq., who read
the Declaration of Independence very
clearly and forcibly. J. J. Sullivan,
Esq., then read the address for the
day, which those who heard it say did
him great credit. The Cornet Band
rendered the patriotic airs in a soul
stirring manner, good to hear. The
game af base ball which took place in
the afternoon is mentioned elsewhere.
The ball at the Opera Honse in the
evening was a decided success, and
the celebration throughout was very
creditable to the men who had charge.

All teachers who expect to teach in

The law compels the Superintendent

A new law went into effect the
first of June requiring county war
rants to be held ninety days before
they can be paid, instead of twenty,
as heretofore. This has occasioned
considerable kicking, and it ought to.
There was little objection to the old
law, but to this one there is no sense
and less justice. Why not make it
live years, when the account would
be outlawed? It is evidently in the
interest of capitalists, who will now
have a fat thing buying up claims. ;
Suppose some one should sue the j
county for ninety days' interest? i
