A peouliar feature of the proceedings of this anniver- fary of tho Declaration of Independence, was an immense train of Irish civic societies from Newark, Yonkers, As- toria, and all the villoges within « considerable distance of New York. They were worthy of the farmer class, and were decent looking, subrtantial men. They had all maguificent banners ot green silk. fringed with lace, and most of them bearing inscriptions. such as * United we stand divided we fall’ and each bearing a slar.a sunburet. ora harp ‘Che baaner had like George Waehington and Daniel O'Connell shakix ‘hands. and on the obverre Jackson and Montgomery in the same attitude.

RCE ES Uereepnaeen FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT AT THE VANDER- BILT LANDING, STATEN ISLAND. DREADIUL LOES OF LIFE SLEVES SOMIES FOUND, AND MANY MORE M CORONER'S INQUESTS, INCIDENTS, Etc. Ut is our painful duty to record a most awful calamity which occurred on Monday afternoon, at Staten Island, casting 6 gloom over the festivities of the dey, and spread- ing desolation and bereavemen' far and wide. Of those who prefer the enjoyment of e rural retreat mong refreshing ehades and beautiful scenery, to the din and confusion of the city, and its Fourth of July eele- ration, many went to enjoy the glorious anniversary on this delicious island. In a few brief moments many 0° the gay and light hearted pleasure seckers were snatched ‘away by a horrible death—the sounds of revelry and en- joyment were converted into wailing and woo—and whe, Lamentations of widowed busbands and wives, and childless parents, were to be heard on ali sides, The resort of fun and frolio, the ecene of mirth and festivity, became at once as & house of monrning—one might read in every face that calamity of more than common severity had befalion. No subject was though: cf or mentioned but the dreadful accident, ite causes and consequences, ‘The extent of the lors cannot be accureiely cetimated Many diffurent opinions are expretsed, bur all seem to concur that there must be several bodies not yt rese ered—an idea that is strengthened by the fact that -everal inquiries continue to be made for missing relatives and friends.

This very proper suggestion was overruled and the jury satisfied themeelvos with en- quiring into the immediate cause of death which, being well known to all. was very easily determined; and merely taking somo testimony as to the identification of the parties, and the fact of thelr being drowned re turned a verdict sccordingly—“That they came by their deaths by accidental drowning, by reason of the breaking of the bridge.» They have thus not pursed an opinion at all upon what seeme a question of great public interest—whether tho bridge was consteuoted or not with | duo regard to the safety of passengers, and whether due Ailigence and attention were shown In keeping chains, &o.. in proper order, in preventing crowding. and 56 forth. It ix said they considered this more a subject for | the consideration of the Grand Jury It isto be hoped that body will do their duty in the matter. Coroner Ives attended in the afternoon to view the body | of Mrs, Fischer as it lay at the ferry houre. and proceeded tohold aninqucst. The death oc ing on board the boat in the river, the inquiry comes within his province; but as he can only inquire into thut fact, he has no au- thority to go into the original eause of an accident occur- ring in another county. THE © YESTERDAY MORNING. On arriving at the scone yesterday morning, our re- | porter found the painful excitement in the neighborhood scarcely abated. Little groups of people were assembled discussing the subject. and relating little incidents of the frightful affair, as they recurred to their memories on the recevery of their senses, partly obscured by excitement and alarm at the actual momeut, and each trying to make his recollection. or conception of the fact. coin- cide with his companiors. Fearfally anxious foes were een inquiring in 2 low voice for the Coroner, while all eyes Were turned with an indefinsble expression of awe towards the door of a small building, where five bodies of the victims lay; amorg which the seck- ers, tortured with suspense. dreaded to behold the remains of some dear and missing relative, and not finding the object of their solicitude, breathed again and felt an involuntary thankfulness that their sus- pense wasronewed, Articles of clothing. mantles, shawls, arasols, and so forth, were carefully scanned. in the ope they would afford a sad clue to the fate of the lost ones, but little sucecss; and great numbers of sach articles remain unclaimed. in the hand» of the Coroner. The little dend house and its ghastly tenants—of which five remained there—presented a sad spectacle: but the attention of cach new comer appeared to be rivetted by the placid beautiful countenance of the little child, Sarah Jane Little, three years old. It appeared exactly aa if it were ina guiet slecp. while the countenances of the cider porsons had a distorved appearance, aad were, some of them, much di-colored No bodies bad been recovered since the night before, and the dragging had been discontinued since balf past eight o'clock | "dhe boats were runuing as usual. landing the passen gers on the wharf adjoining the fatal bridge, which men were actively engaged in repairing.

The jury further exonerates O'Laughlin from all blame.” The death waa a very terrible one. It seems that the iron remrod was iv the murket, and the discharge drove it through the bead of the deceased, passing in at the fore- head and out st the beck, passing out some cight or ten inches, and then remeined im the brain.

Long before the shades of evening had closed in, the impatience of hundreds manifcated iteelf. in the discharge of rockets, which were to be seen arconding from every quarter of the city, from the shipping in tho river, and all along the Brooklyn and Williamsburg shores. the effect, of course, being in a great moasure marred by the mmaining faint rays of the orbefday. The incessant discharge of Chi neso crackers and such smaller fireworks was continued till the shattered remnants of them covered theside walks in large quantities; and the most peaceable citizen who wended his way through any of our etreets must have “emelt powder,”’ and pretty strongly too, the atmosphere everywhere being filled with the odor. The principal exhibitions were IN THE CITY HALL PARK. At an carly hour of the evening an immenze concourse of persons, of ail ages and both sexes, were aseembled in the Park, the whole area being covered by a dense crowd, among which, however, we observed nothing but the most orderly conduct. From sundown till nearly half past past eight o'clock signal rockets were fired from the top of the Hail. when tho most splendid pyrotechpical display was commenced, under the superintendence of Mr, J, W. Hadfield. From the fromt of the centre building and both wings wheels were exhibited, producing overy con- celvabic variety of motion, form, and color; some of the latter were most beautiful. ‘The principal pieces shown were “The Passion Flowor.”” commencing with a vertical wheol of large dimeusions which changed to a beautiful scroll wheel, which again changed to the Passion Flower—formed in lines of bril- liant white lights—technically called “Lances,”’ andjoom- pleted by @ revolving interscction of brilliant jossamine, with centre of whito, yellow, orange, purple, crimson, blue, and green fires, surrounded by a magnificent sun of sliver fire; terminating in a grand feu de joie. This was succeeded bya crimson illumination, of a very strong and «triking effect, imparting a tinge of that color to the entire building. A mechanical piece, of great ingenuity. was the next in order, which. by the combined motions of a horizontal and vertical wheel, represonted the annual and diurnal motions of the carth ; showing the lines in scarlet, green, and purple fires. ‘Thore were several other very fine specimens of pyto- technics, comprising the Flowering Aloc, a ae illmui- nated picor, representing a girandolo; the Gallopade of Serpents, a Grand Volute, exhibiting twelve wheols. of every possible color, concluding with a double radius of brilliant fire. marooned. A most chaste-looking and beautiful production was Tho Crystal Fountain, opening with a sexagon wheel in green ond gold. and changing to the fountain in silver \ances. throwing out jots of fire upwards of forty feet in the air. concluding with u grand feu de joie. A handsome cascade piece, ‘in four changes; the Jewelled Cross of the Legion of Honor; a ecroll of silver lance work. surrounded by revolving suns, and exhibit- ing all the various colored fires ever produced, brought us to the grand finale. ‘This masterpiece of art. opening with a large Grecian wheel, changed to tho Temple of Liberty; most beau- tifully defined by brilliant silver lances—the lines be- ing £0 clearly shown as to have the appearance of a beautiful architectural drawing in fire. The Temple was composed of three large arches; on the centre arch was pluced an equestrian figure of the immortal Washing- ton, which showed very clearly and to great advantage, and was greeted with hearty applause and cheers. In the side arches or wings were the godderses of Liberty and Justice, surrounded with eppropriate insignia. and crown- ed by the Genius of America, Fountains of fire were placed on each side of the piece. throwing out streams of liquid firo; and fire pumps, casting stars of crimson. white. amethyst, purple, orange, jacinth, lilac violet, «meraid and gold ; concluding with a tremendous dis- chargo of rockets. mines. bomb-shells, and flery meteors, Ging the oir with an appearance of the most sublime grandeur, The height of this piece was fifty fect, and it covered the whole front of the City Hall in width. ‘Throughout the exhibition, and alternately with the abovcmentioned eplendid coloured rockets, bomb shells, bengelas, &e.. were discharged, secending to an immense height. some breeking into stars of beautifully brilliant huo and appearing to mingle with those of the firma- went. and for their brief moment of existence to eclipse them ; others into Forpents, showers of golden tain, ke, ‘The exhibition closed about half-past nine, and tho vast crowd having loudly applauded the fluale, quiotly dis- ported.
