GREAT CELEERATION AT TREVOR TON. Theie was a huge and enthusiastic cole, bullion at this nourishing place nn llio 4th. Thanks to Ihe proprietor and inhabitants of tho town, a celebration, got up in such a handsome style, and upon such a liberal scale, has been rarely, if ever, witnessed in this part of the country. There could not have been less limit from :t()00 to 40D0 persons present. The piescnce of the ladies, in huge numbers, mlded a pe culiar cbarm l ihe occasion. Many gentle men fiom Suiibury, Danville, and other nei.ohboi ing towns, and disliicts, caine with their families,' ami joined in tlw festivities of the day. Tho Danville Hiass Hand were in attendaiife, and enlivened tho company by their lin music. That handsomn and well drilled company of Tohintecrs, the Sliaino kin (Juar.ls, imnurled, hy their martial bear ing, an. I line display ri miniaiy tactics, a high decree of patriotic enthusiasm. The firing ofailil.ery, from, a lie Id piece, under the management of .uiii'3 Peaii uml his fiiends from Danville, was echoed back from Ihe mountain sides. Tn the eveni-ig lhci- imf a briilTanl dis play of lire woiks, such as had never been seen in the county. W hut wad n;o.;t cheer ing to the heart cl' every fr;iu patriot and philanthropist,' it was a meeting without dis tinction of party, arid itfth 'ut l,p,or. fn the Va3l crowd not a solitary man was bp en in lha slightest degree intoxicated. All was peace, and order, and harmony and a hap py union of patriotic hearts to celebrate the glorious day. , The meeting Was opened with prayer, by the Pev. Mi. Hull, and organized by the ap pointment of oflicers as follows: WM. it MARSHALL, Esq., President. Hi c.h Bf.i.la, Esq., v Juiik Fov, Vice Fresidenls.

This great original char ier of our nauoual rights was listened lo with more than nn ordinary degree of interest, as if Ihe people present were engaged in solemn reflection on the alarming stale of Iho times, on the shameless assaults w hich are openly made upon nur glorious Union, and ns if they derived a solid relief, ns they turned from these foul exhibitions of modern (rea son, to the noble and exalted principles that mi iib'il and governed the patriots of the Revo lution. The rear of artillery, and tho soul stirring music that followed Ihe reading, were in deep and happy unison with the warm patriotic sentiments that glowed in every breast. The Oralor of the day, Robert C. Ilelfen stein, r.s(., then delivered an address, w hich was listened to with the most profound at tention. In matter and manner, it was soinothint; sreaily behind the common order of 4th of July orations ; and evinced a degree of cultivation and talent, which at some fu ture day, may place the author, now a mo de5t. retiring young gentleman, amongst the most prominent men of ihe state. It was altogether a most happy ell'ort, and was re ceived with rounds of applause. The company then partook of a sumptuous dinner which was served up in handsome ru ral style, by Mr. II. f!. Weaver of thu Trev ortou House, under on avenue of shade trees. The tables were altogether 'J00 feet in length, a second and third table were spread, before all the company could be served. After ihe cloth was removed, the Regular Toals were then read by Charles Pleasants, l-'sq., as follows : 1. The day we celebrate, the anniversary of a nations birth a star of hope to the struggling and oppressed disciples of libeity throughout the world. 3 cheers. 2.

But whether, ' a partial loss of self respect, and a transfer or not, I earry within my own breast a con- j of strength to a faction which would have sciousness, w hich no public expression, fa- ! otherwise snrr into speedy obligation. Let vorable or adverse, can hiiliton or improve. For many years, during which I exercised a greater amount of judicial power than per haps any one man in the commonwealth. whatever mat have been my defect.', I trust j I can fafefy rsiy that 1 oppressed no man that no innocent man was ever, through my instrumentality, or to my kno vledge, subject ed to the penalties of llie law that the powers of my o flier? were never made sub servient to schemes of personal nnsrandize meut or poiitieal ambition that llie ship of justice wii.-t nev:r ffii.'ed out of her proper course in order ti'iat her sails might catch Ihe popular breezes. A Judge who would undertake to satisfy ihe demands of sectarian zeal, of popular clamor, or out of door influ ences of any sort, rather than Iho stem de mands of justice and Ihe law who in race for poivularify would forget the end and aim of his high office, which is mainly lo do jus- ! tiee between man and man. according to es- j tablished law, who would defile and pollute j his ermine by the slime of a sordid personal or politic.il ambition would justly deserve, and would most assuredly bring down on himself, a crushing might of infamy: so that go where he might he eonld neveraflerwanls hold up his head amongst honest, independ ent, intelligent men. 1 trust we have no such Judges now ; and that we are not likely to have. At the same lime, it is well enough ir the people, in view of a creat and ap proaching event in the judicial history r.f our Stale, to ponder on tho subject, and that is my apology lor saying ns much as 1 have said by way of answer to the immediate pur port of llie toast. But I gladly escape to other topics more agreeable both to you and myself. There is something exceedingly moral in I ., . , . ' . ! i in- circiimsiances miner wnicu we meet here this day. I am informed, ynd if I had not been informed. I eouM not have believed that the spot on which we stand, was. nUml one yiarnp,, the centre ol a mild, uncultiva ted, uninhabited region. Its lofty mountains, its deep gorges, its inaccessible forests, its eternal barriers against in the shape of culture, and improveement. An adven turous angler, like myself, may have found his way here, once in a w hile, to catch trout in these tin tain streams: But he would lake good care lo bring with him his grub, his skillet, his knapsack, nnd above all his long boots for a sojourn amongst the reeks and rattlesnakes. For the country furnished neither meat, nor drink, nor diy lodgings, except what nature, the forest and ihe streams supplied. The admirers of natural sjenei y. no doubt saw remelfiing very peculiar and very interesting in the size and shape, and relative position of these mountains. In the constitution of man, the best quali ties of the heart, nnd Ihe noblest facuhies of the mind, a! sometimes cencealed under a ragged and foibhUhug e.'.terior. These mountains conceal, under a most rugged sin- face, vast treasures of mineral wealth. Ti.'. touchstone of individual euterprie l:as been applied. Behold Ihe results. They till Ihe mind of a stranger with w "i;der and amaze ment. Within that short rpace ef one year, a llourkhiug, liuyn has already jprmig into existence, alieady numbering some SOU scuts. These coa! veins of unsurpassed lliickness and c.xreut, aio already giving up their long locked up tieasures. A sul siautial la.'I road Irom this point to the Susipu hanna, a dis tance af some 13 miles, is rapidly progressing towards completion, and' will toon !-o in reail'V.ess to transport this hitherto cencealed, or at least neglei-led trei'snie, lo ihe market of thu era board and l!:c interior. In the l.ir'-u crowd of people asseiiibl.nl here, cveiy trade, occupation, profession, and pun nit in life are represented. It is very evident I licit) is eniployn;?l t now feroiher people, besides li.e hunter r.nd the angler, good roads' have supereeeiied ihe eld indian paths, and home market is furnished for iho produce of the neighboring vallier'; such' are tho results w here the magic power of individual enter priso is brought lo bear tipon iho doimant and impel ishabh) wealth of Ihe mountains of Pemir'ylvania. This mineral wealth, cou pled witS hot other resources, justly entitle her to bo considered the richest slate in the world :' wMlo the many sterling trails of character in her population, coupled wilh her past history, give assuraneo of her con tinued prosperity, of "her fidelity lo all her obligations" and of her unwavering devo tion to the I'nion. The JJdge here made a slrong appeal in beluilf of the Union in vein of tho danger antipathy to each other, were only marching by diir;.rcnt roads to the same point. If (what (Jod forbid,) they should ever effect w hat is the natural result, if not the special aim, of Iheso flagrant proceedings to. wit,: a depopertion of tho 1'nion they could then rush into each others arms. But it would be liko the meeting of condemned and penitent felons at Iho gallows to weep in unison over the wrongs they had done tho inno cent blood they had shed the valuable lives they had sacrificed and tho whole train of horrors that follow in the wake of so onnalu; nil and infernal warfare upon the dearest ties of country and of life. The Judgo then sharply rebuked the poli cy of those political leadeis, whigs or demo Iheso northern fiinntfos and "higher la.V people form a party by therrielvesl nnd let them art by lhemselve.''. ind see where they Will come ont. They never could form of Ihemsi Ives, a corporal s guard fn our steadfast old commonwealth. Let the patri otic, men of both the great parties whig and and democrat ic -"tonrh nnf handle not tho unclean thing." But let them act upon Ihe manly determination, come what may, to stand op for the Union, the Constitution and laws of the country. The Judge concluded by offering 1 lie fol lowing sentiment : , Tile Trevorlnn coal bttsin. The deeper yon dip into it, Ihe more it will yield. May it yield enough to qtteneh a considerable i his ft on the part of its enterprising proprie tor nnd miners. Hugh Bellas, Ksq., was then called upon ' lll! company, and entertained them wilh some lively, humorous, and highly inslruc live remarks. This venerable gentleman rpoke with all the energy and vivacity of a young man. He was here about a year ago, when tt'e first rtep wad taken--when the ground was first tirolten fcy ihe Trevorton Coal Company. He expressed his astonish ment lit what had been effected in the mean time, and could not have believed it. had he not seen it will: his own .eyes. He trusted they wculd go on as they had begun, and lh.it in the end their eutrpiise might bo amply rewarded. One rule they , had adopted, would insure their success. They have carried on their extensive operations noon the plan of paying as tliey go. In this I way, when their improvement" arc cnmple j ted, theie are nn debts left lo swallow up the subsequent profits of their investment. lie was rejoiced that, while they were do ing so much lo develop the physical resour ces of Ihis coal region, they had adopted, and had succeeded in enforcing the most wholesome measures to, proleri and promote Ihe moral condition and improvement of the population Ihey had introduced. Formost amongst these regulations is the exclusion of ardent spirits, and.l!:e irrevocable decree, that expells the inebriate fre:n their employ ment. Such a course mn: l lead to the hap piest remits: one of which has been to se cure comfortable fcomen le many poor fami lies, vvl.o wrnld otherwise have been with out them ; for Ihe wages, applied to this pur pose, would 'uive been wasted on anient spirits..
