srshou or EDWARD tovERETT: s , 'From the Emden Transcript. - We learn from the Boston Transcript that at the Municipal Celebration of the Fourth at Boston the folloWir4 sentiment was proposed in honor of the Federal Senate: ~ 4. The Senate of the United StatesWhon ever it (Evethtt)' speaks disimid and disunion shall hide ditch. heads. To this Mr. Everett replied as follows : aiiirMan and Gentlemen: I thank you for the toast .which has just been given, and for the marked kindness with which it has been received by the company. 1 deem, it a a privilege to be present on this occasion. We all; I think, sir, who had the good fortune to be present at the Old South Church, felt, that it tras good to be' there. [Cheers ] 'We felt that it was good to pause p while from the hurry of passing events, and revise our recol leritions of the times which tried men's souls. I do not know that r have ever attended a celebrationtoonducted in a more interesting manner. The solemn prayers that the God of our fathers would extend his protection to us, the public reading _cif_ the groat _Declaration which has given ,immortality, to the day ; the sweet voices in the gallery, giving assurance that tho sons and daughters were trainineup to catch the spirit and imitate the example of the fathers and mothers ;' this all gave uncom mon interest to the exorcises. [Moab cheer ing.] : It wait also, I own, sir, particularly pleasing to mo to listen to our_young friend on my right, the oratoruf the day, who gave us such' a treat in his ingenious, : manly, and fervid discourse, in which he two very far above OM common places of the occasion, and tainted his great theme with much original and seasonable illustration. , It was eapecially gratifying tome, sir, to witness the brilliant promise he afforded us of adding , new lustre top name en which two generations in s this community have accumulated their honors: [Great cheering.] I believe no ono, sir, who has attended this day's exercises, or is now present, will be dis posed to concur in the opinfon which we some times hear expressed, that the interest of the Fourth of July is on the wane; that it is a worn - out, old .fashioned affair, which has ceased to have a significance for us. For my own part, I value it in no small degree because -- it isl wilt not say an " old fashioned," but Twill say an ancient and venerable institution; [cheers] because its annual celebration for 70 years has already nourished the patriotic feel ings of mots than two generations, and amidst .the perilous convulsions of States abroad, and the rapid march of events 'at home, has left us ono great theme on which political opinion is united; one happy day on which party strife is at rest. [Great applause.] I' trust, sir; that the Fourth of July will aver continuo to bo celebrated ae it has been to-day, understandingly as well as enthusiasti cally ; because it furnishes at once the most instructive and glorious illustration of the Union of the two great principles of stability and progress, on which our Independence was originally founded ; on which our prosperity, at the present day, rests as upon its corner stone; and by whose cordial alliance and joint working alone, the great designs of Providence in reference to our beloved country can be fulfilled. [Much cheering.] I am the more desirous, sir, of making this remark on the present occasion with some emphasis, because there is, on the part of Many—perhaps of most—persons among us; a disposition to separate these .two great prineipler—to take up one to the neglect of the othbr--and consequently in effect to 'do violence to bats. As in all party divisions, so in this ; we throw ourselves passionately into the cause we 'have embraced, push its peculiar views beyond proper limits, overlook ing all reasonable qualifications, and forget that practical wisdom and plain common sense are generally found about half way between the 'two extremes:__[Cheors:]- -Accordingly there are and always have been among us, as in all countries - where 'thought and speech aro free, men who give themselves up, heart and soul, to the reverence of tho past; they can' do justice to no witilioni - ;bitt the wisdom of ages ; and if rip institution is not lime-honored it is very apt by them not to be honored at all. A'hey forgot that the tall Oak Wll . B once an acorn, and that Elio oldest things had a _ beginning. _[Cheirs-]--This class of-men-re ceived a few year's ago in England the.desig nation of "conservatives," from their dispo sition to maintain things just as they are. Recently, in this county, they have keen I called by the rather ;unpromising mime of "old fogies," the origin and precise import of which aro unknown to me. [Cheers and laughter.] Now, sir, these benighted individuals, straight laced and stiff necked as they aro, err only in pushing a sound prinoipls to extremes; in obeying ono law of our social nature to the neglect of another, equally certain and impor tant. The reverence of the past, - adherence to what is established, may be-carried a great ;deal too far, but it is not merely an innate feeling of the human heart, but a direct logi cal consequence of the physical and spiritual constitution which our Creator has given us. [Cheers:] The sacred 'tie of family which, reaching lifieltward and forward, binds the generations of men together, and draws out the plaintive music of. oar being , from the solemn alternation of cradle and grave—the blank and White keys of lifo's harpsiohnid— Isenaatiorg—the magical power of language, which puts tpirit in communion with spit it in distant periods and climes.; the grand sympa thies of country which lead the Greek of the _"present day to talk of " the victory' which we gained' over the barbarians at Marathon— [eheers]—the mystic tissue of race,' wovenfar back in the dark chambers of the past, and which, after the vicissitudes and migrations of centuries„wraps up groat notions in its brand mantle,-[cheers]—those significant expres sions which earrjr_volumes of meaning in a word—Forefather, Parent, Child, Posterity, Native Land ; these all teach us not blindly to worship, but duly to honor the past, to study the lessons of experience, to' scan - the 'high counsels.of mad in his great aseociations, _lloihose counsels have been developed in den btitatione, in laws, in maxims, in' traditions, in great undoubted principles of right and wrong, which have been sanctioned by the general consent of those Who have gone before us; dm tracing in human institutions some faint reflection of that Divine wisdom which fashioned the leaf tht unfolded itself six weeks ago in the forest, on the pattern of the leaf which was bathed.in the dews of Para dise on the morning of creation. [Enthusias tic cheers.] - These leelinge, I say, sir, are just and nat ural, The princi ' ple's ,whieh prompts them lies deep in our nature; it gives birth to the dearest charities of life, and it fortifies some of the sterneetvirtues. [Cheers.] Bin these principles and feelings are not the wholetif our nature. They are a portion only of these sentiments which belong' to us -as men, as pa. triote, as Chrietiana. We do - not err when we oherieh them, but Whim we cherish and act on them exclusively, forgetting thaetherre is other aloes of feelings anti principles ent though not antagonistio—which form an. other 'side to : our wonderfully complicated existence. This is the side to' which an opposite class in the community devotes itself exclusively. They are the men of progress," or, as they sometimes call themselves, in imitation of similar designations in most countries of Eu rope, .f Young America." Either from natu ral ardor of temperament, or - the, fervid spirit of youth, or impatience caused by constant meditation on the abuses which accumulate in most' human concerns in' the lapse of time, ther : get to think that everything, which has existed for a considerable time, is an-.,abuse; -that Consequently to change is, as a matter of course,' to reform—te. innovate, bf necessity, - eon improvement. .They do not consider that if ;this , 'notion ie carried too far it becomes suicidal; it. rundowns their own measures, and ketifies the next 'generation in Sweeping away their work us remorselessly as they aro 'dieposed , to sweep away the work of their predecessors, [profit cheering.] Now here again, sir, the error is one of ex. eggerrition.only.- Young America is, a viiiy toneit folloviL4e Meats well; but like other ... , ,,youngfolhe Ile ts ebeittitnes a little too much en' :a .htirry;.'

Now, sir, this was the wisdom of the men of '76, This is the lesson of the Fourth of July ; this the oracle which speaks to us from the shrines of this coneocrated hall. [Greet cheering.] ,If we study the writings of the men of that day, We find - 64 they treated the cause of civil liberty not only as one of justice and right, of sentiment and feeling but also as one of history and tradition, of chartera and-laus. [Choirs.] They not only looked to the future, but explored the I net. They built wisely and skilfully in such sort, that after times might extend the stately front of the temple of freedom, and enlarge its specious courts, and pile its stories, arch above arch, gallery above gallery, to the heavens I [Groat cheers.] But they dug the foundations deep down to thooternal rock—the town, the school, the churches—these were the four corner stones on which they reared the edifice. [En thusiastio cheers.] if we look only at one part of theirWork— if we see them poring eyor musty parehments by the midnight loop—doting the year books against writs of ossistancetlisputing them selves hoarse about this phrase in the charter of Charles 1., and that section in a statute of Edward 111., we should be disposed to class them whistle most bigoted conservatives that over threw a drag chain round the limbs of a young -and ardent people. [Cheers:] But, gracious Heavens! look-at them again, when, the trumpet Bounds the hour of resistance; survey the other aspect of their work. [Great cheering ] See these undaunted patriots in their obscure caucus gathering, in their town modem in their provincial assemblies, in their Continental Congress, breathing defiance to the British Parliament and the British, throne ; march with their raw militia to the coodiat with the trained veterans of the Seven Years' War • witness them, n group of colonies extemporized into a confederacy, entering with a calm self possession into an alliance with the oldest monarchy of 'Europe; and occupying - as they did, a narrow belt of terri tory along the coast, thinly peopled, partially oleared—hemmed in by the native savage, by the Alleghenies, by the Ohio and the lekee— behold them, dilating with the grandeur of the position, radiant in the prospective glories of their career—[etach cheering]—oasting abroad the germs of future independent States, destined, and at no distant day, not merely to cover the face of the thirteen British colonies, but to spread over the territories of France and Spain on this continent—over Florida and Louisiana—over New Mexico and Califor nia—beyond-the Mississippi; beyond the Rooky Mountains—to unite the Atlantio and the Pa cific Oceans, the Arctic and the Torrid zones, in one, great net work of confederate Repub lican Government. Contemplate this - and you will acknowledge the men of Seventy-dg to have been the boldest men of progress that the world has ever seen. [Enthusiastic cheer in These are the men whom the - Fourth of July --invites-ns to respect -and -imitatethe Otisee and the Warrens, the Plantains and the Adamees, the—Patrick Henrys and the Jeffersons, and him whom I may not name in the plural number, brightest of the bright and purest of the pure—Washington himself. [Rapturous cheers.] But let us be sure to', imitate them, (or to strive to do so,) its all their groat principles, in both parts of their noble and comprehensive policy. [Applause.] Let us reverence them as they reverenced their predecessors—not seeking to build up the future on the ruins of all that bad gone before, nor yet to bind down the living, breath ing, burning present to the mouldering relios ^of the dead past—[cheere].- - -but deducing the rule of a bold and safe progress from the records of a wise and glorious experience. • [Great applause.] I am trespassing unconscionably, sir, upon the time of the company. Go on I" Go on 11 But I Will, by: your leave, add one further reflection. We live at an era as eventful, in my judgment, as that of Seventy six, though in a different way. We have no foreign yoketo throw off ; but in the discharge of the duty devolved upon us by Providence, we have to carry the republican independence which our fathers aohievedovith ell the or ganized institutions of an enlightened commu nity, institutions of religion, law, education,. charity, art, and all the thousand graces of the highest culture, beyond the Missouri, be yond the Sierra - Nevada ; perhaps in time around the circuit of the Antilles ; perhaps to the Archipelagoes of the Central Pacific. [Great cheering.] The pioneers are on the way; who can tell bow far and how fast they • will - travel? Who that compares the North America of, 1753, -but a century ago, and numbering tint a little over a million of souls of European origin; or still more, the North America of 1753, when there was certainly - not _a fifth . part of this number; who ,that compares this with the North America of 1853 —its twenty-two millioneof European origin, and its thirty-one States, will -venture to as sign limits to our growth—will dare to compute the time table of our railway progress ; ,or lift so much as is corner of the certain that hides the crowded events of the coming cen tury? . [Great cheering.] This only wo can Plainly see—the Old World hi' ;oohing to its foundations. From _the Gulf of Finland to the Yellow Sea, everything is shaken. The spirit of the age has gone forth to hold his great review, and the_linge of the earth are moved. to meet him, at his coming.— [Cheers ] The bond Aids holds the great .- powers of Europe together in one political league,-is strained to its utmost tension. The catastrophe may for a while be staved off, but to all appearance they are hurrying to the verge of one of those conflicts which, like those of Pharsalia and Actium, affect the condition of States for twice ten centuries. [Sensation.] The Turkish Empire, encamped but for four centuries on the frontiers of Eu rope, and the Chinese Monarchy, contemn° , rary with David and Solomon,*are alike arum= l ' toting. While, these events arc passing in the Old World, the tide of emigration, which has no parallel in isie,,,ry, is pouring westward across the Atlantic, and eastward across the Petit - to, to our shores. ' The real political vitality of the world seems moving to the new ^-hemisphere, whams condition and fortunes it devolves upon us and our children to mould and regulate. [Great cheering.]' Sir, it is a grand, let meshy a &ileum thotight„ well, calculated to still the passions of the day, and to elevate us above the paltry' strife of parties. [Applause.] It teaches us that we are -called to the highest, and I do `-verily believe the .most momentous trust -that over devolved upon one generation of men. Let us meet it with it corresponding temper and purpose, with the wisdom of a well in _ atruoted experience; with the foresight and preparation of a glorious future ;,not on, the narrow platforms of party;-policy and tempo: rary expedieney,.but in the, broad and com prehensive spirit' of teventy.-eix: ' [Great and icing Continued cheering.] , Snoeic(oo Strcies.---A young german, 00m : od *oiiy, (* . oilman, bomuki . o.ed spioide itreek 'll"...i'liliedelphin, by fiaturdaq.

It seems that these Baltimore Germans have lield a convention, and " organised to advise the German voting community of Baltimore , how to cast their votes at the next eleotions." They have, their secretary, inquired of .each of the candid Ittee now before the people of BaltiMore for office, whether he ." ie convinced of the justice and necessity of their organization," and if he " openly pledges himself to represent them in Congress, etc., according to the laws of equal ity . and justice, without any preference to native horn American REMUS OE.

After partaking of a most plentiful collation, the company were seated in order to engage 'more prirtieularly in the celebration of the day.

AOADEitT, July G. For the " herald." A PROXIMITORY LAW. To be successful in securing the enactment 7 of .such laws as will prevent the improper use of intoxicating liquors, it is very necessary that all ultra and untenable ground Should be abandoned by the advocates of the temperance reform dperally. . While dlenholie liquors .must be had, and cannot be done without, it is worse than useless to proscribe the manu facturer, and identify him with the keeper of the dram-shop. The manufacturer of alcoholic liquors claims, 'and justly too, that the same protection be thrown around his business that the law affords to the manufacturer of fire' arms, restricting it to ifs legitium'e uses. With' this protection, his business will be relieved from the odiuni that at present attaches to it, and the best men and not the worst, will be encouraged to engage id it. The following resolutions have been sanctioned by many of our most substantial, common sense temperance men, and are offered as expressing the sentiments of a largo portion ofthe friends of temperance in Pennsylvania: 1. Resolved, That in the present state of the arts and se ences, alcoholic liquors can not, and ought not to be entirely dispensed with. 2. Resolved, That the manufacture of alto belie liquors for the purposes übove'specitied, is as honorable a business as any other branch of manufacture, and that it should be BO pre• tested by law, as that all classes of our citizens may engage in it,' without thereby becoming obnoxious to the moral and religious, and without forfeiting their claim to the favorable cOnsideration of their fellow eitizens.• 3. Resolved, That the enactment of such laws. as will restrict the sole of 'spirituous liquors to their legitimate purposes, suppress-, ing their use entirely as a beverage,cvill meet with the acquiescence, find secure the vigorous support, of the friends of the temperance reform generally. 4. Resolved, That the present license system for vending intexlcartng liquors . is.a very great evil, and that ue et.udidate for the Legislature should be sustained by the pcople,'who is not favorable to the enactment of such laws'ns will prevent tho sale of intozicating liquors entirely as a beverage. lekesburg, Pu., July B. B. - 1 NEW VLLLIII KW AKE; 1 To answer to a call for the purpose, a npm ber of the independent voters of Newville and vicinity, met on Thursday evening, July 7th, 1853, in the lower behool-house, to organ ize and unite for the purpose of doing away with the present licence system by a prohibit ory law. After an eloquent and spirit-stirring' address by Irev.J. Evans, the followingrirur- - ocedings were had, yiz..: Jowl WAoNtut was chosen President, D s . Sind:it - and L.-11. WIL LIAMS, Vice Presithdits, J. R. IRVINE, COITCS• pending, and W. R. LINN, Recording, •Secre taries, end Joseph LAtiontan, Treasurer. Messrs John Moore, Esq , A. Richards and J. Stough, were appointed It committee to pro pose resolutions expressive of the views and ftiture course of the amciatton. 'After con sultation they presented' the following pream ble and resolutions which wore unanimously adopted: 'Whereas, The practice of drinking liquors as a beverage, has long been admitted the occasion of drunitennees, and the prolific cause of crime, paupertim, and mental and bodily suffering, and Whereas, All the efforts strenuously and perseveringly made for the last twenty-four years have failed to accomplish tho removal of this evil, and the discontinuance of a prac— lice so fraught with evil consequences, and Whereas, The total prohibition by law Of the sale of 'ardent spirits, as a beverage, is believed to be indispensible to the success of temperance, and Whereas, It is an admitted principle in all free governments, that the law-making power emanates directly from the people, and is to be exercised for their• benefit, it follows nines sarilly that it is -both their right and their duty, to demand the repeal of any existing law whioh in its operation conflicts with this design, and to demand the enactment of such . laws as will in their judgment promote •the well being of tho community, therefore Resolved,. That wo owe no apology to any political party, when we declare our fixed de termination to vote for no man for the legisla ture who does not unhesitatingly identify himself with the :success of our_ cause, ilud pledge his best effisrts to promote it. -Resolved, That from all the indications of Providence, and the general musings of the people throughout.the lengthprind, breadth of the land, wo feel bound by °Very motive of patriotism and moral obligation, to sulfur-tic party ties or party proscriptions to-dissuade or intimidate us. for a moment in our efforts for the suppression of the liquor traffic.„ Resolved, That we highly approve the noble stand heretofore taken, by our good oltf Cam-, monwealth in the suppression of lotteries and other pernicious practices, and feel thereby greatly encouraged m our efforts for the sup pression of inteinperanee, which inflicts upon the community more evils than all -the others combined. Resolved, Til9.i we cannot admit the rulers Bev of the oblootion urged to our cause by sume at the pretended ft-leads of temperance, viz.: " That it is too pure and holy"a cause • to t:e . .mingled, with politics." Aceording to Webster, "Po.iltics is that part of ethics which consists in the regidation and government of a. nation or State, for the preservation of its safety, peace and prosperity." if intemperance is inimical to the safety, peace and prosperity of. the State, which is admitted by nil, then it is a pert of politics to remove it, and it is a proper subject of legislation. Re.elsed, That in view of the success that 7 has attended tho prohibitor:) , law in other States, we are encouraged to 'buckle on the armor of truth and philanthropy, and by the blessing of God upon our efforts, not put it off until our beloved COQIIIIOIIIVOIIith j 8 redeemed from the incubus of the present licence system. Resolved, That as all party issues, which have heretofore produced and kept up political antagonisms, seem, at least for the time being, to be put to rest, wizt ? can see no reason why 'the honest friends of good morals should not kola* their party rigor, if by.so doing they can effect so great a deliverance from the bondage of the bottle and tho bar—room. Resolved, That while our polltiCal sympa thies shall in all other matters oontiuuo with our respective parties, yet, on - this tae, and at present ,all absorbing question, we shall feel bound to sustain the man who will most zeal— :. ously promote it. • Resolved, That wo solicit the so operation and aid of all lovers of sobriety end good morals, in our.-county Und ' throughout , tho 'State, in this work of reform, and spurn the. slanderous cant that would repreeentA'enn . nylvania as not yet ready for the repeal of a drunkard making, eabliath breaking license law. , • Bc.roived, _That tso hail with pride and plea sure the oo•operation of the .
