Fourth of «July.
Since our last, tne "gh" i°us Fourth
has come again, with all its brilliant
beauties and thronging memories*
The day we used to meet to hear the
Declaration of Independence reac
fire anvils, sing Yankee Doodle, anc
eat the big barbecue; when our boy
ish heart would so expand with its
patriotic emotions that our bosom
couldn't hold it, and we felt like we
wanted to lie right down and die for
our dear delightful America. Yes
the "immortal Fourth" has once more
dawned upon the land of freedom
and the home of George Washington.
Again the happified hosts, the liberty-
laden millions have assembled around
the mighty ensign, the great striped
rag of Freedom, to worship the deeds
that won American liberty and
spread the brooding pinions of the
Eagle from ocean to ocean and from
pole to sea. That glorious old ban-
ner, the proud object of a thousand
flood-gushing apostrophes, has again
flaunted majestically from the court-
house spires, while the booming can-
non and multiplied millions of human
voices have attuned their inharmoni-
ous bellowings in praise of the heroic
achievements of Seventy-Six. The
unfortunate South—the oppressed,
the down-trodden, insulted and much
maligned Sunny South—the only
portion of God's green earth that
could consistently render honor to
the .Rebellion that severed Columbia's
once happy soil from the oppressions
of British misrule, lies silent and sad,
unwilling to acclaim the glories of a
day that has no longer any meaning,
or repeat exultant hosannas to Liber-
ty while the clanking of the tyrant's
chains is still to be heard in the
land, and the tyrant's hoof is yet
upon her neck. No music, no ban
ners, no feast; no sounding of drums,
no jubilee, in the land whose liberties
are dead and among a people to
whom such things would be but a
inock and an empty, foolish parade.
We still remember the good old
times that were, and how we loved
to celebrate the annual visitation of
our national birth-day with the loud-
est honors we could put in array; but
those days are past, and the flowers
formerly spread by our hands upon
the graves of our Revolutionary
Fathers are now hung by other hands
unon the tombs of those who lost
their lives in wresting from us the
liberties given us by those honored
Sires. And all, too, in the name of
Liberty. Well may we exclaim, like! Goods, Colthing, Boots, Shoes, Hats, Groceries, Hard-

Returning thanks to my old customers and the public generally for their very liberal
patronage for the past four years, I solicit, and hope to merit, a continuance of the same.
