Mr. Buchanan-- " The Soldiers

'delightSii'day, , „Tbe weather was really delloiousi
and the - A!.roughaft of the city:enjoyed it even to.
violence, in someinerters , 'The Soldiers' Home,
ns yoti knoll, is a sort; of 'dependency of the War
Department, for which we,are,all indebted greatly
to Jefferson Davis. It a beautiful and retired
spot, and the old veterans: who have fought their
battletffor their - ootintry, come hither to rest their
weary bones before they rest forever in the grave.
Pow of the politicians intrude upon that part of
the - ititisesne • lesoilter to 'the President, And he
smokes his cigar and takes his Madeira under i Ida
Own vino and,fig-tree,,with none to molest or to
I make him afraid, -Mr.:Secretary Floyd, as in duty
bound, acoompanies the President. .

Democratic •Convention , held a few, days, ago in

goadvisekor fellows as evealived, are "used by as
hungry a set of officeatoldera as ever longed •for
place, or sold out for a consideration. These gen:
ery,have petered Mr. Buchanan for patronage un
til, he has conferred it upon nearly all the leading
men of, the State. They have -got their pay, and
are most eager now to show their gratitude. Any
dose the Administration offers to them they will
swallow, and pecompton, minims to everybody
else, is, a sweet dose to them. They are hid by thO
man Appleton in the State Department—a selfish
and .sordid conrtier—and will no doubt, lay
their ob,sequio,us resolutions at Mr. Buchanan's
feet jut as gladly as if they did not know that snob

A BEAUTIFUL` CELEBRATION
Among the:most interesting and appropriate
celebrations' Of our national anniVersary, we can
not omit to refer to that of the Sunday.sohnol of
the Alexander Presbyterian Chitral, West Green
street. This ohurch, and the
,Sunday.sehool at;
taehed to it, aro both the product of 'a few months,
and the latter numbers now over two hundred and
fifty soholani.
The organization and growth of this sohtol, the
programme of the celebration, as well is the oar-
Tying of it out, were mainly the work of the able
and indefatigable superintendent, Mr. Taber.
The performances commenced at ten o'olook and
ended at ono, and consisted of addresses by
the Rev. Doctor Breed, of the Seventeenth
and Spruce-streets church, and the Rev. Doctor
Nevin, of the Alexander ohnroh—both of which
men are fall of eloquence and genius, patriotic,
spirited, and national. Doctor Breed, in refer
ring to our early history as a nation, and par
ticularly to that of the Revolution and our War
of Independence, drew strong-oontsaste i ttnoL.
Washington and Arnold—the one as the guar
dian.angel of his country, the other as Its evil
genius—and called upon the male scholars to imi
tate-the character of the one and shin that of
the other, as ther expeoted to receive the bless
logs of God; or his 'condemnation, or tie ap
plause or *oondemnation of their country.
Doctor • Nevin was extremely happy in his
remarks. He alluded to the part his father had
taken in the last war as an akar of the volunteer's
who marched to the defence of Baltimore:, Ills
uncle also MS a major in Revolution, 'of whom
he felt proud, when standing in the rotund° of the
Oepitol at Washington he saw him worthy the place
'he occupied as one of the deferidere of his country's
rights, worthy to ad mu its walls, as he had adorned
and honored his -country. Ho also playfully al
luded to Mrs. Nevins' ancestors. Her mother, with
others, bad torn up their drama and lent them to
.Washington to bind up the wounds of the soldiers
after the battle.' of Brandywine, for which they
still retain in theft:family Washington's letter of
thanks, es a precious memorial. 'Both gentlemen
strongly urged on their young hearers the neoessity
of love of country and love for the Union.
,The children sang with a right good will, Joined
by the audience, " Columbia," the Star Span
gled Banner," "Cur Country," and other patri
otlo songs, accompanied by a fine volunteer or
chestra, that discoursed In the interim most excel

was ,entertained with' "good things" by the

to. their satisfaction; The scholars, altogether,

having. in their, hands bouquets of choice dowers.

Incompltanee with a general and enthusiastic

before the curtain, and addressed the audience as
follows :

however, taught " Young AmeriOa" that " edge

"local belligerency exhibited itself by fights of

A "bard judgment" is delivered, in one of our
Sunday papers, upon the late Judge Conrad, of
Philadelphia. He is pronounced to !lave been " a
man of brilliant genius, without a glimmering of
judgment; a man of energy, without a spark of
prudence ; a man of sentiment, without the vestige
of a hearts a man of impulse, without a single
unselfish aspiration." This, and much more of the

a 'Philadelphia editor contemporary with Judge

without scenery or musts, and produce "Electra,"
as in old times it was acted on a cart, was not ap
preelated by our depraved taste. "When Roselle

positive ass, and that was the manager.

This fellow is, without doubt, 711 a manuals sujet,

they might learn the process of breaking stone or
making hats at Sing Sing, would ventilate our

The eighty-second anniversary of . the Declara
tion of Independence has teen duly commemorated
in Philadelphia. The n&tional holiday has had
two-fold character, Its occurrence on Sunday
blended the aspirations of patriotism with the
spirit of devotion, and nearly all of the oity
churches were graced with the presence of our
volunteer soldiery. The Press, of Monday, con
tained a full account of the religious demonstra
tions of the day previous, and we now present re
ports of the political, social, and other celebrations
of the anniversary, together with a record of the
acoidents and inoidents of the occasion. At sun
rise, salutes were fired by the Washington Grays,
the Marion Rifles, and other companies. In fact,
nearly all the bells about town commenced &jubi
lant peal, and between the firing of guns and
, cannon, the, jingling of hundreds of bells, and the
popping of myriads of crackers, the glorious occa
sion was welcomed In with noises which were far
more vigorous than harmonious.
Young America was on band at an equally early
hour, and blazed away as gloriously as ever. All
the bunting in town was of course displayed, and
from steeple, tower, mast. rigging polo, and chim
ney top, the stars and stripes• ttoated'in the fresh
morning breeze. The weather was truly delight
ful, and we never saw the national holiday en
joyed with more apparent zest. While viewing
the unusual number of appropriate decorations that
had been gotten up in every ward of the city, we
were gratified by the' refiection,.that in Philadel
phia, at least, where American Independence was
born, the ardor of the sons of patriotic sires has not
is Streets "e't an early hour in the morning
commenced to wear quite a lively aspect. Every
body was dressed in holiday attire, and appeared
to be determined to enjoy the day to its fullest
extent. Some who believed that , saltpetre will
explode gave numerous practieni demonstrations
of the faith that was in them, while others started
away' from the sight of brick - walls, "tasking the
pure air which blew over the hills and over the
rivers. Every train which left - the city carried
its crowds, drawn by locomotives decked with
flags, and carrying pictures of " the signing of the
Declaration." The Wissahickon and the shady
lanes about Germantown were visited by portico
en foot, parties in carriages, and parties _on horse.
back, and Very many persons revelled in the quiet
delights which the fields, forest, and flower's of
forded them. Others were doebtpg and- whirling
along the quiet road in buggies and f' east crabs,"
raising a considerable dust. and fancying they cut
a tremendous swell. During the day-the State
House, as usual, was a great'aentVe: of .attraction
Independence Rail was visited by. thousands of I
persons, being in name and foot, the it,Mecoa !of
freedom " The chamber was constantly thronged
with citizens with thole wives mad little ones, who
took advantage of the appropriate season to pay
the world•renowned Hall a visit.
THE '• CHEAP" CELEBRATION.,
Common Council celebration came off in the
chamber of Common Council at noon. There were !
quite a number of members of Select and Common
Connoile present ; but all the seats and standing
places were occupied by citizens, who were at.
traoted to the spot' by the newspaper notices of
the affair and by the airs performed bye fine
band of music stationed in the chamber.
- At noon the meeting.was organised by calling to
the chair Mr. Robert Kelton.
The ohairman referred to the glorioua '6OO/1140D
which heti caused the convocation upon .this in ,
torestlng spot, 'and after expressing his-regret that
the gentleman who it was intended should :preside
-one not present, he introduced the Rev. Thomas
H. Stockton, who read appropriate portions of the
Scriptures. Rev. John Chambers then delivered
an impassioned and patriotic prayer. After the
religious portion of the exercises had concluded,
the hand performed a national air, and Mr.
George F. Gordon then delivered 'an oration.
After more music, the meeting in Connell Cham
ber adjourned.
THE MEETING or TOE DEMOCRACY IN Tile SQUARE.
The Democrats had their usual meeting in In-.
dependence Square. It was not so welt attended
as upon many former similar occasions. Ron.
Thomas B. Florence presided. A largo number
of gentlemen were named no Vise Presidents and
Seeretnries. There was a band of music stationed
in the square during the time of the meeting.
After the reading of the Declaration of Indepen
dence by Mr. Thomas E. Harking, an able oration
was delivered by Mr. Charles Ingersoll.
After the annotation of Mr. Ingereoll's oration,
Senator William Bigler came forward and made a
speech. Mr. B.'s address was of a political oho
rector, and gave umbrage to some of his hearers.
The Senator attempted to defend his official course
at Washington,
- Hon. Thomas 11. Forsyth then read the follow
ing resolutions:

the removal from the h ills of Congress of this dancer

that while the great buslnens interests as well as the tu

that we havareneou to be proud of that calm and vies

Mr. .Forsyth' did not read the resolutions in a

ME CO N OF TUE IYASII/NOTON GRAYS.
This sple id corps of citizen soldiery, com
manded by Captain Parry, after an early parade
on Monday morning, proceeded, in a steamboat
chartered expressly for the occasion, to the Pirb
House on the Delaware. Here they spent. a most
delightful day in gay sports of all kinds and the
eroyment of the charming breezes and sunlight.
The Delaware and the Schuylkill, as nape',
offered the °berme of a bright sky and a cool breeze
to the lovers of boating, fishing, and swimming. -
The Delaware was gay with flags and pennons, and
white with bright sails during the entire day.
Kensington was all afloat in beautiful little craft,
which glided over the glittering current' with a
grace no words can match. Southwark sent out its
quota, and the passengers on the Burlington and
Wilmington boats saw many a sloop filled with ,
some club of youths euphoniously styling itself
"Blond Tubs," "Buocaniers ," "Ran
gets," or some other cognomen equally outlandish.
The Schuylkill about Fairmount bad thousands
of vieiters The boats plying to Laurel Hill and
the Falls were crowded, and the river was covered
with row-boats and skiffs between the dam and
Columbia bridge,
TUE FIREMEN—AN INTERESTING OCCASION.
. . .
The members of the Monumental Hose Company,
of Baltimore, who passed the national holiday in
this city, were handsomely entertained by the
members of . the Philadelphia Hose Company and
the Good Will Engine Company. The members of
the Flifornamental are a noble Set of men, and,
judging from their appearance, are well calculated
for effeotive servioe to time ofneed. They brought
with them two handsome testimonials, erne intend
ed for the Philadelphia and the other for the Good
Will, whiob were presented on Monday. The for
mer is a collection of the photographs of the Balti
more company, most magnificently framed, and
forming altogether as beautiful a piece of art as we
ever had the pleasure of inspecting. The presen
tation took place at the bonen of the Philadelphia,
in Seventh street, and drew together a large num
ber of persons.
Mr. Roberts, of the Maryland House of Dele
gates, presented the. testimonial in some remarks
highly complimentary to and well deserved by the
recipients. He spoke of the Philadelphiatte fore
most among the enterprising of our city fire or ,
ItitiliVi'Wttartiart**lgiffrairr u t t et-rst2.!. h , e g" d
between the firemen of tho sister cities. -
Mr Brown, of the Philadelphia, received the
testimonial on behalf of that company. As a fer
vid and eiequent speaker. Mr. B. has few equate
among the young men of the oity, and his really
vigorous address on this occasion well sustained
his reputation. His allusions to the past history
of the fire department of this city, its many dan•
emus iris's and noble triumphs, and the good
feeling of emulation which had been thereby en- '
genriered, called forth the most cordial applause.
At the conclusion of these highly interesting exer.
oises the members of both companies, accompanied
by Herring's excellent band of musts, proceeded
to the City Market house, inliroad street, between
Race and Cherry, where a handsome dinner had
been prepared for them by the members of the
Good Will Engine Company.
• The tables wore filled with every delicacy of the
season, and presented a rare appearance oflaxnry.
Ample justice wan done to the "good things"
which had been so liberally provider', after which
photograph likenesses of the Monumental Hose
and a number of its members, were presented to
the Good Will Company by r Rodgers, and re.
°Dived by Mr. George R. Smith in some pertinent
remarks. A number of toasts were prowled and
enthusiastically received. Mr. Bra wn. of ticePhila
dolphin Hose, was called upon for a speech, and it
is needless to state that he agreeably entertained
all present by his rich flow of language. Cheers
at frequent intervals were given with a hearty
rood will for the company that had prepared the
dinner. A number of the members of Select and
Common Councils were present at the festive
board.
In response to complimentary sentiments, elo
quent addresses were made by Messrs. Edwin For
rest Miller, secretary of the Board of Directors of
the Fire Department, G. It. Smith, Mr. Rodgers.
Mr. William Dunn, of the Monumental Rose, and
others One of the speakers advised the members
of the "Monumental" to exert themselves to pro
cure the introduction of the local telegraph into
Baltimore, as it would greatly advance the inter
ests of the fire department of that city—a sugges
tion that was received with deafening deem The
Good Will was referred to by all of the speakers
as the strongest company in the city, and by nti
morons philanthropic deeds deserving the name
which they hod so appropriately adopted.
Dist evening the members of the Monumental
partook of a supper at the Falls of the Schuylkill,
furnished by the Philadelphia. The Baltimoreans'
will return home to-day, having enjoyed " a good
time generally "

ACOLDENTS, ba
About eight o'clock, on Monday morning, a se

the lower end of Germantown. An old lady,
named Mrs. MAI, eighty years of ago, was In her
garden, when she received a pistol ball from some
unknown hand. The ball entered her breast, and
her attending physician has been unable to ex.

result of recklessness.
About saran o'olook on Monday evening, two
boys named William and Henry Fritz, aged re.
