The Fourth Of July was ceiebr aicd at
four different places we believe in the
county,north 81 east of Belmont, south Of
Birmingham and also in This town We
could not be at all places, and as it suit
cd our convenience best, we slaid al
home. We are informed ;hat the cele-
bra,ions north and east Of Belmont
were quite spirited g. the orations excel
lent. From that south OF Birmingham
we have not heard. The celebration
here vas altogether an of-hand affair,
got up on the short notice of some two
or three days. The Grafton by Fly.
Rocket Esq, was in handsome style,
and highly creduabe to the speaker,
considering the unusually short notice
TO prepare for the discussion Of asubjcct
which is in a sense so triie and hack
neyed. The speaking over; the citi-
zens (of whom we suppose not far from
three hundred were presenD repair cd
TO the dining room at HaIles Tavern.
where a sumptuous dinner, with an
abundance Of "nic-nacs" and wines
was provided by the worthy landlord
and in the evening ball came off,
when the young and buoyant and beau
tiful "trippe1 the light fantastic toe"
and mingled together in gay enjoyment
of the waltz, promenade, & enchantmenf
ofihe sylphine scene.--A thorn among
the roses, Of course it would have been
impudent in US 10 have staid to see it
out-but we are informed BY our Ariel
that the fourth of July lasted until Fri
day mornng-which will cause some
change in the Cesarean reckoning
