THE FOURTH. CGeneral Celebration of a De- lightful Day, Tho Whito Stockings Proclaim Their Declaration of Independenees Closing Day of tho Dexter Park Races, : Boenos in the Parks and on the Boulevards, Ovr Country Cousins Luxuriating at the Theafres. An Old-Fashioned Fourth at Woodstock. The Groves of Evanston and the Beer Gardens of Chicago. Riots at Picnics and Deaths in ihe City. Dlinor Accidents, Yesterdny was tho Ninety-oighth Annlversary of that famous documont, the roading of which from tho stops of Indepoadence Inll, Philadel- phin, obangud the destinlos of the Now World— or tho botter part thoreof, The Fourth always brings o high temperature, and juvonile Amori- on finds it necessary to give noisy vent, by ex- plosions of gunpowder, to the patriotism whicl had boen rigidly pent up for s whole yoar. Why 4L 18 necossary for the descondants of the thirty- six fathors. of their country, who sigued the Doclaration of Indepondunce, to manifest thelr thaulfuluoas to God and men for froedom, by tho discharge of pocket-pistols, fire-crackers, and Roman candles, is s bowildering mystery to tho unprojudiced obsorver. Why overhouted gontlomen, brimtul of ontery, shonld DELUGE BUFFENING IUMANITY with a rohash of very old stories, compounded into a drug oalled a Fourth of July oration, is somethiug that any man whoss pulse beata in matural timo is utterly unable to explain. The Doclaration, ltself, ia a very busingss-like affair and does not call for any particulnrly-sulphurous rocognition, - It atated tho quarrel between the Qolonies and Engiand in cloar 2ud conelso terms, &nd, had tho war for indepondence failed, It wonld, doubtless, have been conmigned to tha waste-busket of bistory with very fow regreta.

It waa looked pon a8 60 certain that thors was very littlo betting anywbere, and what was dono waa at odds of four to ono, and even monoy on o Acors of two to ono 1 favor of tho Reds.

If this fqoling could ouly continue, the White Btookings might yet achiove somo credit.
