Lowell is yet a child in years, but has arrived at the full size of manhood. Everything seems to be prosperous here now, several mills have been built or enlarged during the past year, and many of our permanent citizens have built for themselves good substantial buildings, that are an ornament to the | city. The city government has been quite active in | improvements, having purchased two fine public | commons at an expense of over $30,000, and being | about to expend $25,000 more for a house of reform- ation for juveniles. Last year the experiment of paving was tested at the small outlay of $1,500, and this year $3,500 have been appropriated,and are now beiug expended for the same purpose. Our mills flourish well, and mechanics of almost all kinds find ready and constant employment at good prices. We have been a temperate city for some time back, but the suspended decision on our “ license law” is doing much mischief here. Hitherto prose- cations for selling the ‘“‘crittur” have been nume- rous, and many fines imposed, which just about broke up the cursed traffic. Law is now ata stand, and the rum-sellers come out like a swarm of bees. Rum is sold every where, and ** dog holes’ parti cularly are as thick as the sands on the sea shore.— Jn one street [can count along ina line eight mi- serable holes, that deal out the poison like water, without fear or favor. A majority of our citizens, however, are strong on temperance, and they are making constant and useful efforts in their cause.— | They ought to have alittle law to aid them. Great rogues have not made many daring efforts in our city of late. Some two or three years ago, an attempt was made to rob one of the banks, which attempt failed. On Wednesday night last, a_ still more daring attempt was made to rob one of the counting rooms of one of oar corporations—the Locks and Canals. This is the wealthiest company m Lowell, having once owned all the water power, and most of the land in the city, which it has sold at — prices. apeanatl the rogues expected a great haul. They entered the couuting room by placing a plank over the canal from the bridge into one of the windows, and blew off the door of the safe with il The door was double, and daylight came efore they could complete the work. The discharge shattered the furniture some, and was distinctly heard at some distance, but it being near morn, no- thing was thought of it. Had they got the inner door open, they would not have found much within. No clue has yet been found to the robbers. — This is the glorious Fourth, and our ty is full of strangers. Our two principal streets, Merrimack and Central, are crowded, so that it is difficult to getalong. ‘They look some like your Broadway now, but with ten times as many, and much pret- tier girls abroad. Inalmost every city you see in the streets more males than females, but here the tender sex have the upper hand by three to one ; aey are the ‘upper ten thousand” in petticoats. t looks odd to a stranger, but stillhe likes it well. Our girls are all young, and generally very pretty, most of them in their teens, or not far enough out to cease to be candidates for marriage, and when you see them abroad with their hosts, dressed well, (and none dress better,) looking so sweetly, chatting so cheerily, and smiling so enchantingly, you almost think you are in fairy-land. Oh, how lucky it was for you, Mr. Bennett, that when you visited Lowell. three or fouryears since, you took Mrs. B. with you. The new post office law operates well here, and people are inclined to patronize the post oftice now Oar Post Master thinks the income will be much re- duced, and has already turned off his head clerk But then as he expects to be turned off himself every day, and the {clerk expects to be Post Master as soon, it all goes off wellenough. The scales invent- ed by Dr. Fox of this city, are now in tse” at the st office until the oe scales are provided. hey are a beautiful model, and quite ingenious, and ought to have been adopted, but were too expensive. The weights consist of several half ounce weights, fastened together, but so that they can be raised a little from each other. As many of those weights are raised as half ounces are put into the other scales. ¥ We have a great temperance celebration here to- day. The procession is now forming. Col. Joseph Butterfield, one of our deputy sherifis, is Chief Mar- shall. He has been a staff officer in the tented field for many years, in former days, and sits a horse nght wall; and is also popular as our County Trea- surer. He is thorough cold water, and goes for its bountiful application internally and externally, as well to the individual as the great body of the com- munity, and he reads the !Herald, too, as regularly as the week passes. These you will think excellent qualities. No doubt he will read every word of this letter, and wonder who wrote it. The procession is a tine one, and would be much larger were it not for our muddy streets. The City Guardsand the Phalanx, two first rate companies, now in most excellent trim, do escort duty. Then follow along line of men—next ladies and gentle- men together in good numbers, then a host of young ladies, making a tirstrate show and attracting great atyention—next the Rechabites in full numbers, and last, as usual, citizens generally. Banners and fine bands of music are scattered along the procession. The numbers out are large, the day overhead first rate, the procession long, and every thing goes off well. I donb not it will have an excellent effect just at this time. The procession will move to a tine grove near Gorham street, and then several cold wa. ter and patriotic speeches will be made. The whole company will dine in the second story of the new Prescott mill, which has no machinery init yet— The room is something near 300 feet long by 60 feet wide, and affords every accommodation desired. It will be a regular old fashioned ‘ house-warming” for the new mill, and wit and cold water, and beau ty not brandy, will be the order of the day. With such a start the mill must do well. There isa great “ stew” smiung, the Lowell De- mocracy about the Post Office. There are candi- dates enougli in the field, but no one has been selec- ted. Probably they, or some of their friends, give the President such characters of the difierent candi- dates, that he begins te doubt about the standing and character of his party in Lowell. Most any one of them would do well enough, and some one would soon be appointed, if they would keep quiet and let each otheralone. We hear it is settled at Wash- ingion, that two of the lately most prominent candi. lates are put out of the question, and who will be the lucky .man, President Polk himself dont yet know. i Post Master Robbins has taken the letter adver- tising from the democratic paper, and given it to the Lowell Daily Courier, the Whig organ. This is not much grumbled at by the Democracy, as the editor of the Democratic organ has just got a good place to | the tune of $1,500 per annum in the Boston Custom | house. This creates a little jealousy, of course. There 1s trouble brewing with the Democracy of this State, cliques and parties spring up among them- selves, which strive to devour each other up. The Custom House has soured a great many, and got Marcus into difficulty. It is said that a clique of half a dozen about the State has governed him in his appointments, which are in some cases very unhap- py ones, and this has turned the ire of the other cliques against our poor Ex-Governor, the Collector. How he will get out of the serape, nobody knows, as to make peace, he must fill a great many mouths. _ Gen. Jackson has not yet been publicly honored in his death, m Lowell. Our city government unanimously refused to get up funeral obsequies. Some of the Democracy, Post Office candidates and others, have, however, resolved to do something in the matter; and it said that Robert Rantoul, jr., now District Attorney of the U. S: for this District, is to deliver the eulogy. | A Sue ABOLITIONIST RUNNING AWAY wiTH A Mu- LATTO FeLtow.—The Norfolk Herald gives the fol lowing amusing account of a runaway match :— young woman trom the North, said to be about 18 yea! f ngaged as ladies’ waiting.maid in one of the h tel: t city, eloped with a likely young mulatto fe! los waiter in the same hotel,anda slave of the propri tor!

On their arrival at Baltimore, ‘Miss —— and | servant’ were duly registered in the {ticket office of the | Philadelphia railroad line, and departed the same morning for the North, where, among her friends, the ‘servant’ is now, most probably, flourishing in the character of the ‘husband’ of Miss —, and ‘The Evening of the Third and Morning of the Glorious Fourth—The Fourth in this City—The Orator of the Day— Appropriate Ceremonies. The Mayor, at an early day, having issued his pro- clamation, by authority, that no fire crackers, fire | balls, or tar barrels could be burned in our streets, on this national oecasion, sundry persons, ‘ too nu- merous to mention,” or to arrest, not having the fear of said law before their eyes, did, with malice and sport aforethought, set fire to sundry millions of fire crackers on said Mayor's steps, and at a few other public places in this city—and, not content with giv- ing such salutes, they burnt several tar barrels, mere- ly out of compliment to the Mayor, and threw fire balls until their arms **ached.” This they kept up until three o’clock, with an occasional alarm of fire, just to rouse out the firemen ; when, to have a bon- fire “worthy ofthe occasion,” some wicked person set fire to a barn in the south-eastern part of the city, which was consumed. A barn adjoining, was also one half burnt. Thus the whole night was made hideous. ‘Tne Fourth went off, otherwise, very tamely, in this city. The bells were rung at sunrise—no na- tional salute was fired by our city fathers, and even our State House was left unadorned with the new and beautiful State flag, which act shows the reve- rence that our Comptroller has for the day—a real old blue-light federal feeling. Nothing would have been done, except as above stated, had uot a number of young and patriotic gentlemen, through whose veins flows the blood an spt of °76, determined not to let the day ‘* pass off by default” unhonored. They therefore invited, on the 2d instant, Seymour N.

The great audience who listened to him were highly entertained, and manifested their approbation by frequent and repeated outburts of applause. The ladies, too, God bless them,who graced the occasion with their bright eyes, manifested their patriotic feelings for the orator, by the numerous wreaths and boquets thrown to him. — For what more could Clay, Calhoun, Webster.

Mobile. (Correspondence of the Herald.} Mosiiz, June 28, 1845. Terrible Fight with Bowie Knives—The Weather— Health of the City, §c. A most bloody affair came off here this morning, about three miles from the city, between two young men; their names are John Bagley, of New York city, and Leonard Wilson, of Richmond, Va. The dispute arose as follows: It appears that they crossed blades about a month ago, when they were arrested, and held to bail in the sum of 3,000 dollars; Bagley left the city for Tuscaloosa, where (with the aid of his late employer,) he embarked in the window shade business, bought a small house and work shop, and a piece of ground, besides two or three negroes. On the 21st of June, Wilson was seen in Tuscaloo- sa, drinking with some persons, and was heard to say, that he would be revenged on Bagley, for some injury that the latter had done him; and on the night ch the 22d of June, the work shop, and house, and three negroes, with about 2,000 pair of window shades, were all consumed, and as he was not in- sured, the loss ruined him; in the course of the day, after the fire. somebody conveyed to Bagley the in- telligence of Wilson’s arrival at Tusc loosa, and how he hud threatened Bagley, for some injury which he had done to Wilson. Hagley, immediately went in quest of Wilson, and upon inquiring for him at the tavern mentioned, he ascertained that Wilson had left for Mobile; Bagley concluded that he must have fired the house, or instigated the act; and in company with fis late employer, started for Mobile, and arrived but three hours later than Wil- son; and on inquiring at the house where Wilsouw put up, they learnt that he was home; Bagley went in and was showed up to his room. When Wilson saw him we was thunderstruck. tae accused him of arson for firing his premises, and he did not deny it; he then. ire him his choice, either to go to prison, or to it him; the weapons to be bowie knives. Wilson accepted the challenge, and they met this morning on the Stone street road, and after slashing at one another for about a half an hour, in which Wilson was cut piecemeal, his second inter- fered and it was ended; ‘ley’s late employer acted as his second on the occasion. Bagley is an enterprising young man, and a per- son of some genius as a painter; he has great talent for the stage. | was up at Tusealoosa about three weeks ago, where a number of young men formed a Thespian Club for their amusement, during the tediousness of the summer. 1 was there, and saw Bagley perform, and he displayed talents of no mean order. The weather is Wleedthil warm in this vicinity, and the farmers are complaining of the want o rain. The city remains healthy; indeed, it is the opinion of a great many, that little or no sickness will be prevalent this season; and they are of the same opinion in the Crescent city. P. S. I have since learned that Bagley has left for New York; also, that Wilson has died of the wounds he received in the duel. Bagley, although a north- erner, is one on the southron principle, (i. e.) bow- .e knives, and being an expert fencer, received but i slight wound in the arm, as I am informed. . Varieties. * Mr. S.
