General Scott and the War Department, in preparing

Resolved, That in the person of Col. Andrew G. Cur
tin, the present Governor of the State of Pennsylvania,
we find all the requisite qualifications necessary for the

indefatigable efforts in organizing the military forces of
Pennsylvania, and in maintaining the Integrity and hon

QSTY CELEBRATION. —A large number of the
citizens of Bradford county assembled, pursuant to notice,
at Rotue, July 4th, to commemorate the Both anniversary
of American Independence. The weather was most de
lightful. At about 11 o'clock the Goodrich and Yonng
American Guards, Military Companies from Towanda,
entered town, and on parade were escorted through the
' principal streets, by a martial band. Each company was
| finely equipped and presented a very creditable appear
ance. At one o'clock the literary and principal exercis
es of the Celebration occurred. The following persons
were nominated and elected to fill their respective offices
in the meeting, which convened near Mailt street, viz :
l'i rsi Ient —OSCAR F. Yt >L T XG,
fire Presidents — Lewis Humphrey,Levi Roanlman, of
Orwell : Daniel Stevens, Calvin Mann, John Towner, Asa
Fuller, of Rome ; and Alvin Whitney, of Wysox.
Serretary —flam lie! Cass.
The Declaration of Independence having been read by
Mr. GATES, ('ol. V. E. PHH.LKT, the Ora-of the day. was
introduced. The gentleman delivered an able and patri
otic address. In the same was discussed at length, and
profoundly, the origin of our national difficulties and a
line of policy, including the utmost devotedness to the
government, for the people hereafter to follow, was sug
gested. Mr. WARREN, of N. Y., having been asked to
sneak, debated the question at issue in the country, in
some pertinent, eloquent and irell-received remaiks.
The audience then adjourned for dinner, to the differ
ent hotels. The business " laid on the table,'" was taken
up and finally disposed of by the adoption of many "mo
tions." Those present at the lower house were next er*
tortain with two songs, the first, "The Star Spangh-d
Banner," sung by Miss I*. H Case, the other, " The Flag
of o ir Union," by Misses Case and Harris. Both perform
ances were greatly applauded.
Having been invited, Messrs. Telford and Allen, the
former Captain and the latter Lieutenant, on behalf of the
Goodrich Guards, addressed the assemblage.
The remainder of the day was occupied at such recre
ations as suited the diverse tastes of the participators—
The military appeared in exhibition drill, and their ac
quittal was alike honorable to themselves and the town
claiming their residence. In the evening a ball was held
at Case's hotel.
Thus passed offthe long-to-be rernemWed celebration
at the pleasant and hospitable village of Rome. S.
ORWELL, Ta., July 3, ISGI.
MR. EDITOR : —Our little town was to-day thoroughly
stirred up by the patriotic demonstrations of the enthu
siastic multitude assembled to raise a beautiful and tow
ering pole which our young men had procured at the
cost of a good deal of hard labor, with a view of throw
ing to the breeze the most imposing banner ever raised
in this region, in honor of the Stars and Stripes. During
the presentation of the flag. which was borne by thirteen
young ladies appropriately attired, with special reference
to the occasion, who were escorted under the direction
of Capt. J. W. PAYSON. marshal of the day, and the music ;
present playing the National airs. The meeting was or
ganized by the election ol ZEBULON FIUSBIK, Esq.,
President, and J. W. Alger, Fred. Gregory, Joel John
son, Isaac Lyon. Cyrus Cook, and James Cleveland, Vice
Presidents, and Carlos J. Chubbuck and K. N. Brouson,
Secretaries. Whereupon, on motion, a Committee of
Thirteen were elected to report resolutions. After listen
ing to short and interesting remarks from Senator I-an- i
don, and eloquent and patriotic addresses from Col. j
E. Smith aud John C. Adams, Esq., which were listened '
to with marked attention. The reading of the resolu- j
lions being called for, their Chairman, Maj. T. Hum- I
phrey, appeared and reported the following, which, on
being read, were adopted :
WHEREAS , In the mighty progress of events now sift
ing the nations, involving changes of vital importance to
the stability of Governments and the well-being of soci- ;
ety, we are forced to the admission that our own insti- j
tutions and Government is in imminent danger of being !
overthrown by armed conspirators, and j
WHEREAS, Believing, as we do most solemnly, that the
present rebellion of a portion of the people of these Uui- j
ted States, against the Federal authority is without any j
adequate cause, that it is a crime of the deepest dye, not j
only against the Government aud the laws, hut against :
the moral sense of the world, and # j
WHEREAS, Believing in the clear and undenial right of
the Government to assert and maintain its own dignity,
and that in the crisis now upon ns it is the solemn duty ;
of the Chief Magistrate of the nation to take care aud se- i
rure proper obedience to the laws from all the people in |
all the States, and being fully convinced ol the justice of j
the war ol defence now being prosecuted for the main
tenance of the laws, and the preservation of our liberties,
therefore
Resolved, That a portion of the people of the United
States having deliberately placed themselves in an atti
tude of armed hostility to the Government, have by so
doing forfeited all their rights under the Constitution,
that they are no longer our brothers, in the common ac
: ceptation and use of the term, as applied to citizens of the
1 same nation, but are straugers and aliens, entitled to no
j consideration at our hands, until they lay down their
j weapons, and return to their loyalty, and we will stand
| ready to welcome them back with a fraternal greeting,
whenever they show the evidence, and do the works
| meet for repentance.
Resolved, 'ihat whilst we acknowledge it to be thedu
j ty of good men always to pray for evildoers we cannot
! find any place in our hearts for sympathy for traitors
with arms in their hands, and we look with sorrow upon
the doubtful lnvalty of those men who would excuse the
wickedness of this attempt to destroyus as a nation ,by allu
sions to bygones or party strifes of the past,we will neither
encourage the unreasonable railings of abolitionism, nor
look with any favor upon the faltering patriotism of
those who cannot or will not in this hour of the coun
try's peril, rise alove and bury in forgctfulness all the
differences nt the past.
Resolved, That we see unmistakable indications in
many quarters of an attempt on the part of disloyal syin
| pathizers with traitorous conspirators to thrust upon the
I country, under the plausible dodge of pacification, some
| dubiously doubtful scheme of compromise, in which we
, sec nothing but danger and dishonor,
j Resolved, That the overwhelming expression of the
j united sentiment of the people of the loyal States, who
have se readily responded in men and money, without
j stint or measure, to the call of the President, is a suffi
| eient guaranty that the nation has determined aud ex
-1 pressed, by its united voice, that at all hazards and at
every cost, the country and her institutions shall he pre
served, by maintaining inviolate the Constitution and
he laws.
Resolved, That the action of National Administration
in the treatment of this rebellion meets our unqualified
approval : that we hate increasing confidence in the
ability, skill and patriotism of Abraham Lincoln, that in
onr opinion he has chosen fur his constitutional advisers
safe and able counsellors, that here under the old Na
tional emblems ot* our pride and our power, we pledge
our services to our country aud promise to rally around
our leaders, whenever the need of the cause shall de
maud.
Resolved, That wc have undiminished confidence in
our Senator and Representatives in the National legisla
ture, which assembles on the morrow, and we dejurc
them to shut their ears and nerve their hearts against
the words and machinations of the doubtful men, who
may attempt to divide us, by proposing sugar-coated at
tention to rebels, and to vote at once the money aud
the muscle needed, that the strong artn of the Federal
power may be in a situation to make itself reqiected at
home, and honored and feared abroad.
Resolved. That this war of restoration should be push
ed to the direst extremity, it need be, that traitors may
be brought to speedy and condign punishment, that
crime may IK- suppressed, that order and good uoverit
m.'iit may be restored to every section of the land.
On motion, it was unanimously voted that the resolu
tions, with the proceedings of the meeting, be published
j in the county papers.
On motion, a vote of thanks was tendered to the speak
ers, also to the Leßaysville and Orwell Brass Bands,
which were present, and enlivened the occasion with en
tertaining music. Z. FRISBIU, I'res.
