:.':11 1 11E DAY AT GIRARD COLLEGE
The Chapter s)f Incidents and Accidents,
MEE
Nervous people were glad when the clocks
struck the hour of last midnight. - To those
wrestling with fever or racked with pain the
cessation of the noise of yesterday Must have
brought- unspeakable- relief,
Everyboady knows that 'yesterday was the
• Fourth of July. Everybody in Philadelphia
also knows that no municipal celebration
marked either its advent or its passing hours.
Everybody knowathat the heats of the tire
4--,.:viousjawdays were abated last .Baturday,_and.
that for a grand military and civic demonstra
tion no more suitable :weather than that of
yesterday could have been desired.
The gray of morning was ushered in in the
usual Fourth of July manner. The proclama
tion of the Mayor prohibiting the firing of pis
tols in the streets was a dead letter the whole
- -- -day.- - The -din , -was—literally -:.pandemoniac.
There was no soldiering, no parading, no any
thing to attract the attOntion , of_ the.- half
grown and over-grown boys that made hideous
both day.and night through all but the more
aristocratic sectionS of - the city. To have ar
rested the one-hundredth part of these peace
disturbers would have filled every station
house in Philadelphia before morning roll
call. -
The .absence of any especial attraction was
shown in, the scarcity, in the streets, of our
friends from outlying districts. - The trains
came into the city even less full. A consider
able Tortion of_Philadelphia is-now.riiralising,
and to get such eople to exchange the retire
ment of a villa for the hubbub of -the -city re
quired something more-than such inducements
- as were offered yesterday.
The\happlest feature of the day was the
Temperance meeting bold in - independenac
Square. Of -this we elsewhere give a descrip
tion. The meeting was not only large, but
very respectable. The amount of good done
by this " Temperance Blessing".is very_large.
Its beneficiaries include people in - every walk
of life. Of these not a few persons of influ
evinced their gratitude by lending every
power to the public exhibition of
vhat has Own from a mustard seed- planted
by Mr. Charles Heritage to the ifimeastom3.-f
a. preartree.
Business was almost totally suspended. In
the walks of wholesale trade no shutter WaS
- open. Even our Quaker friends; who respect
all days alike except the Lord's : shut shutters
o ty-peopl e-d o n't--m a ke- pur
chases on the Fourth of July; as the country
people this time stayed at home the work of
standing behind a counter carried with it as
little of excitement as there is of nutrition in
barley soup. The three o'clock hurry-scurry
at the banks was all done on the Saturday
previous. The three days of grace, by the
3uxta-occurrence of two holidays, were thus
cut- down to one. The result this morning
must have caused every notary to grin with
joy, and start out on a trip that would tax the
pedals even of those much underpaid and
over-worked officials, our friends the letter
carriers.
The banging of crackers during the day
made up in noise for the night's deficiency in
pyrotechnic splendor. The destruction of a
large quatitity of the larger fireworks in Bus
sier's building, a few days before, is said to
Have told in the diminution of the quantity
purchased. Th e e crowd was greatest in Chest
nut street, Broad street, and Ridge avenue.
Scarce a lady was visible all day long, save
those who hastened, in the morning, to get
oat of the city. The river boats were laden
with them,
while large numbers of family
parties hastened early to the comparative
quiet of Fairmount Park. '
The gathering of the little band of veterans
of lsl2 was a suggestive feature of the day.
TheY were not all residents of Philadelphia.
There annually come to join with their com
rades, from other localities, a number of aged
men. Year by year they; like the resident
veterans, diminish.in numbers. Some head,
whitened with the frost of time, is inisseu
from the roll. It is gathered in, and
" When time is told
A mightier 'voice that, the sexton's old
Shall sound o'er the last It um p's dreadful (lin,
I gather them in—l gather them in I"
These strangers among us are received with
heartiest hospitality. In the memory of many
of them, as with the veterans of our own city,
are stored reminiscences that history has not
perpetuated and probably never will.
' The par value 'of all the whisky engulphed
yesterday in human stomach would pay this
reporter's expenses fora considerable holiday.
Alhe day - dragged ' Factories and
shops were closed. 'Workmen were unoccu
pied. Their Saturday's wages were in their
pockets. About every tenth man we saw
down town was accusing some Other man of
bting drunk. The lesser rumnieries took in
money as fast as they could count it. Tin&
customers took down whisky as fast as they
could pour it. Being unable to do jus

fane Man who once refused to
swear l'or the very same reason,
the police made no more arrests than they
Could help. if in danger of being run over,
they chocked the chaps on a marketstall, or
hung them on the pavement of blind alleys.
In this manner they evinced their philosophy
philtisophy that teaches thein'to do nothing
involving fatigue that doesn't involve either
pay or the gratification of pique. As two
,. thirds of the swipey people were their OWII
countrymen, another reason for their eleinene3
in the matter may perhaps be. pot down - under
the head of the feeling that. makes us won
drous kind.
Sunset found a good many wearied people,
a good Many, lacerated fingers and scorched
faces, and people squatting on stools of repent
ance iu every f.lireetion. The places of amuse
ment that were open were, as usual, full.
While one class of people avoid the 3 theatre on
a holiday as they would avoid Bedford street
at any time, a larger-class rarely visit the the
atre on any other, The din in the streets ceased
early. The supply Of fireworks and gun
:powder seemed to have given out. As the
clock struck 12 the night was no noisier than
the night before. The fe'W people oirthe side-'
walks were prolonging their homeward way
by executing isosceles triangles upon the

At the Union League House.
Covered all over with the nags that make
its usual holiday dress, the Union' League
House looked very handsome, and it was
thronged with members and visitors through
. but the day. At norm, a large number
sembled in the reading-room to hear the Dec'.

intervals during the afternoon.
. In the evening the Broad street facade of
the house was brilliantly illuminated with
gas, and a vast crowd of people assembled in
the street; filling it from Walnut to 'Chestnut
street, to witness an exhibition of fireworkS
• prepared by Professor Jackson. The band was
stationed over the grand entrance. The win
dows and the fiat roofs of the wings were filled
with people', among whom were many ladies.
Towards nine o'clock a succession of splen
did rockets were discharged, along with Ro
man candles and other minor pyrotechnics.
Afterwards, there were several fine, showy
Catharine wheels. Then came the grand dis
play of an ornamental piece, in the midst of
which appeared the words "Union League."
To this succeeded one dedicated to Washing
ton, one to Lincoln, and one, larger and more
brilliant than all, to Grant. These were all
magnificently, successful, •and they were re
ceived With shouts of applause from the vast
.multitude, which afterwards rapidly dispersed:
Dleetink iu Independence square.
In the afternoon a large, mass-meeting was
held in Independence Square, , under the
t auspices of 'the Temperance' Blessing. Hass
ler's band was present and furnished excellent
music. The stand for the speakers was hand
somely decorated with - Hags. - Robert M.
Foust, Esq., presided.

Col. Vm. H. Maurice then recited the De-

Charles Heritage, Chairman of the " Tem

which it is staled that 1000 persons have
,igned the pledge-book. There have been
distributed 70,000 tracts, of Which number
05,000 were printed by the Blessing and the
remainder were contributed by the American
Trltct Society and the Bible and Tract Society.
The expenses since last report, March 8, 1870,
have been 5325 The donations during the
came time have been 4 .. , 1.0.1 70. The expenses
of the Blessing over receipts, to date, have
been ' . ..t.51-1 10. The report then says :

Celebration of the Fourth of July at
Girard College- •
•
The pupils of Girard College celebrated the
day with,patriotic spirit. The,Declaration of
Independence was, read by Robert J. Johio
son, a member of the graduating class, and an
oration was deliVered by Win. A. Hatch; A.
M., an officer of the College. We regret our
inability to give the whole of Mr. .Hateh's
oration. We can only give its concluding
passages: • . • •
Most of you well remember the enthusiastic joy -which
followed the surrender of Leo at Appomattox, when
strong Men in the streets forgot alt the proprieties and
dignities-of life, and danced, and laughed, and cried and
embraced each other like children, all intoxicated as
n-the-excitement-of-t hat-happy-moment:-
Something like this no doubt followed the termination
of that long, hard, doubtful struggle ,of the infant
against the giant, when success of unexpected propor
tions crowned the almost despairing effort..
Dot yictory and peace found the new nation still feeble
. --:Witheiut government, eiererlitirdehed by debt, weakened
by internal dissensions and disturbed by political feuds
more bitter than wo have ever seen in our day. and, I
trust, than we shall ever see. Yet, in spite of all these
discouraging and almost oyerpoweriug circumstances
for there were men in those days superior to circum
stances, who in the darkest hour never knew despair-a
government was established republican:in form, and
that, too, upon the broad, deep, enduring foundation or
civil and religions liberty.
Endming ? Yes. The splendid fabric of our Govern
ment nay fall. piece by4tece or be overwhelmed in
•-common:rniff-.1 ntime, missiles chrolesslicor wantonly.-
thrown may chip- away the solid block: Insigniflcaut
parasites mice feed, thrive- and grow on the dissolution
of the very rock
Sc'cial convulsionser the force of hostile invasion may
overturn the walls of the superstructure? In one grand,
awful crash. Still the foundation will remain as firm,
as solid, as endming as truth itself, and on this basis
may be erected tawnier and yet another - structure of
government, each more beautiful, more permanent,
. more perfect.thanite predecessor.... . _
The youtneltehublic established On ill itildimatton be-
lan to grow slowly at first, then more and more rapidly.
ts youthful-strength was first tried is d_war with its
old-time enemy for commercial rights, in which we
gained inuch glory and some advantage. Then in the
invasion of poor, weak Mexico, wherein we . gaiued little
glen y - and much shame . •, , .
Rutin spite of all our national growth, In spite ofall
, our national glory, in spite of the soaring of our tin
Gould bird, of our 4th of bonstings, we were still in ,
national childhood when-the dark clouds of war again
overspread our lewd-this time not for the in etatenatice
of unsettled rights, nor for doubtful advantage. but war
for our very existence. -It was to -determine whether
the - republic was a rope of sand, or a strong indissoluble
union of independeM yet mutually dePendentstates. Y• 11
have all seen and till rejoiced in the happy termination,
..ef that terrible struggle, and some of us older ones Oman

That. struggle gave the nation the right to put on the
toga wiriiis, thus symbol of t perfect manhood.
No longer a child, the nation stands up in the con

That proud title of citizen brings with it important
privileges and also important duties. t,;ubmission to

and, an you will he a part of the government no well as
one of the governed, see to it that no ono reproients your
voice Who does not also represent truth, honor and
devotion to tin, highest good of all. Let uo party fealty
or political jugglery blind your eyes to the true charac
ter of the man who seeks the nation through your vote
or influence.
And above and beyond nll these ordinary duties of
the citizen comes the highest, the best demand. which I
pray God may never be made of you, but which, if made,
I know you will respond to as bravely, as cheerfully,
as faithfully. as did your fathers and brothers Whose
bones now lie scattered from the Potomac to the Itio
Grande, some of whom are remembered in the marble
yonder. The national life is of more value than the in-.
this Wid's life ; the national honor should be at sacred
as your own. The rights of the nation are the citizen's
rights. Defend then the national life as you would de
fend your own. Guard her honor as you ought to guard
your own. even at the expense of life: Maintain her
rights, for in so doing you maintain your own.
In the afternoon the boys were refreshed
with an abundance of ice cream and cake, af
ter which the battalion of Girard thillege
Cadets had a dress-parade and drill, under
the command of Major Henry Oliver.
At 9 o'clock P. M., Prof. Stephens gave a
beautiful exhibition of fireworks. Through

were enlivened by music by the College band.
• Lincoln Institution. •
The boys of the Lincoln Institution cele
brated the day by a picnic excursion to Tor
resda-le, where they spent the day very plea
santly, in bathing, fishing, and out-of-door
sports, including a base-ball match between
their two clubs, the " Manitoba"„ and the
" Active," which was won, after an exciting
contest, by the Manitobas, on a score of 24 to
211. The-day passed off without accident or
mishap, anti the boys, who turned out nearly
their full number of one hundred and twenty,
returned home soon after dark, in high glee
over a most successful and rational celebra
tion of the Fourth. •

Accidents.
About 1 o'clock, yesterday afternoon, a child
named John Shinn, aged 6 years, had the
sight of his eye destroyed and was severely -
burned about the face, by the explosion of
shboti lig crackers', on Frankford Road. •
Yesterday evening, a colored lad, named'

--BASE _BALL.
Athletic vs. Mentuni-7,ll'he Athletic Vie-
toiiolis,
Yesterday afternoon the first of a series
of base ball games for the champion
ship was played at Fifteenth and Columbia
avenue, between the Athletic, of this city, the
Ypresent champions, and the Mutual, of. New
ork. - Over4:ooo . persons were preketit; - which
was a small number considering that yester
day was a general holiday; Among the specta
tors were a number of the New Orleans fire
men, who exhibited great interest in 'the
game. Mr. Boineieler, the umpire, - Made
several erroneous decisions, which-is
some
thing unusual for that gentleman.
Game was commenced at 315 P. M.; and
the Athletics, having won the toss, sent the
Mutuals to the bat. Hatfield made first on a
clean- hit over short, while Eggler .went out.
at first and Patterson on a fly to Sensy. Nel
son got his base on a wild.throw by Pratt, and
himselfrand=Hattield±in_ini
sent a fly to Schafer. For the Athletic Reach
..aud 'lslcßride both sent out flies that .were
taken. Malone, Fisler and Seusy all
,got on
bases next, but the former, in trying to run in,
was put,...out.:_ltithe second pgs Marti n
118 of Thre - Islutnal - ,7bgth - ixrade - rtins
Wolters and Swandell going out at first and
Eggler on three strikes, leaving Hatfield on
second.
In Ibis innings the Athletic did some .fine
batting. Fisler 'Made a second base hit, and
6ensenderfer a home run. Schafer sent a foul
,to C. Mills. Radcliff', Bechtel and Pratt got
their runs on fi muff and wild throw of Nelson.
Reach sent a fiy to Patterson,and Fisler on his
second_, bat struck a foul. In the_
_third iss
uing Nelson, of the was the only
man who got a run, and in the fourth a wild
throw of Pratt to first helped them to one
run, - Egg ler - also - getting' one — on - a -third-base
hit by Patterson.
The third innings for the - Atliletic resdlteff
in a blank, and the fobrth in three runs, one
of which, by Reach, was a home run on a long
hit to left centre. Malone, while running
home from third on a hit of Fislor, slightly
interfered with the ball and was decided out.
Schafer tipped a foul and Bechtel a fly to
Eggler. The fifth innings resulted in one ism
for the Mutual, whidh'.an erroneous decision
of the umpire on a.loul - 'bound taken by
Bechtel gave to them. The .Athletic, on the
contrary, by some strong batting, ran up a
score of nine, Reach, Malone and Sensenderfer
all snaking home runs, Pratt asecona base hit,
and several others fine first base strikes. Two
muffs marked the inning, and both made by
Nelson at third base, and, as each counted a
run, it had a bad effect.
In the sixth innings Eggler was the only
member of the Mutual nine who made a run.
Patterson made a fine third-base hit, but was
left there by Nelson, leaving him by going out
at first. During this innings the Athletics
madeAhree runs, Sensenderfer making his
thircnome run, Eisler a second-base hit, and
Malone hitting a bounder to right. Schafer
and Radcliff both puffed up flies, and Bechtel
sent a foul to C. Mills.
In the seventh innings E. Mills,, Swandell
and. C. Mills 'scored. This should have beet
a whitewash had net Reach muffed C. Mills
at second, as one man was already out, and
Wolters, who followed C. Mills, sent afoul to
Malone. Sivandell sent. and C.
Mills on a third base hit, and got his run on a
wild pitch.. In this inning the Athletic were
:-ltunlted. Pratt being forced out at second by
Reach and Id cßride, and Malone going out at
lirst. In the nest innings they could get but
one run, which was made"- by Sensenderfer.
Eisler going out at first, Schafer on a fly, and
Radelifi on a foul.
The eight innings resulted in a blank for
the Mutuals, Nelson being left on second,after
a muff by Radcliff. In the ninth innings they
managed to get three runs by safe batting, C.
Mills;Swandell and Hatfield each scoring. The
Athletics closed the innings and game for two
runs, one by Bechtel and the other a home
run by. Mcßride. .
