| | WHOLE NO. 6887. MORNING EDITION—FRIDAY, INDEPENDENCE DAY. Its Celebration in the Metropolis and Elsewhere, ACCIDENTS, &e., Siew, dee ‘The day passed off as usual. So far as we have heard, ‘there was so trouble, no riot, no disturbance of ‘any sort, There were quite s number of accidents here and elsewhere, the particulars of which we give. Apart from these, all passed off quietly and happily. An occasional shower, with thunder and lightning dur- “ing the day, cooled off the atmosphere, laid the dust and added somewhat to the celebration. ‘The military display in the city was brilliant, but we.re- agret to hear of an accident toGem Hall by the falling of ‘his horse on Broadway. New York cantarn out the Snest military division ever seen on parade or {n actual service. In tho evening the rain interfered with the fire- works; the thousands in the Park tried to keep dry un- ‘der umbrellas, but they failed in their efforts, The fire. -works are postponed to Monday. ‘The Liquor law went into force, as the Legislature directed. Every one who felt thirsty slaked his thirst as casual, They did #0 in Brooklyn, as well as in New York. ‘They did so everywhere. There was no trouble—no ar- rest, no seizure. We have not heard the opinion of the Carson Lesgue, but everybody else seems satiafied with ‘the operation aad effect of the law on the first day. APPEARANCE OF THE CIfY. The glorious Fourth was celebrated in the city with great éclat Wecnesday. To be sure the weather was not as propitious as it might be, but what did young New York care for that?’ There was a certain amount of fireworks bought, and, rain or # hey must be explo- ded, if mot in the Park orin the streets, why then on ‘the housetops and frem ihe windows. And terrible was the racket the juvenileskept up. From “morn till dewy eve,’’ the alr was reconant with the dim of firecrackers, and the explosions of guns, pistols and the smaller sort ‘of fre-arms, while at intervals the booming of cannon was heard to heighten the effect. This continuel during the day, and at night the city seemed almost on fire, #0 continuous was the stream of rockets, Romsa can iles, &e , shot up im mid air. This was kept up until Night's candles were burat out, And the jocund morn Stood tiptoe on the misty mountain top. The weather during the morning was very fine, but about noon asmart shower came up, which sent the pleasure seekers scudding to their homes. The after- moon was ehowery at intervals, and Heaven's artillery, thundering in the skies, came into competition with the detonations of firecrack- ers and squids, and at length withdrew disgAsted from the unequal conflict. ‘The city in the morning had a very brilliant appsar- ‘ance, as every hotel and place of amusement was gaily adorned with flags and patriotic devices, as were also the abips in the harbor. CELEBRATION OF THE SOCIETY OF TAY MANY. In accordance with the custom of the Tammany So- ciety, or Columbian Order, since its establishment in 1789, the anniversary of our National Independence wa® celebrated in the old wigwam. There was, as usual, a large number of persons present beside the members of the association. The room was decorated with the emblems of the various States, and the banner of the Ocier was dispiayed behind the platform which had been erected for the Sachems and other officers Shelton’s band, which was engaged for the occasion gave additional interest to the proceedings, by the per formance of some of their best music. About half pas one o’clcck, the Sachems and officers, wearing thei ‘badges, and preceded by one of their number, bearing the cap of Liberty, entered the hall, and after marchin round it once, took their seats on the platform. Th Grand Sackem, Lorenzo B. Shepard, Esq., came forwar and addressed the meeting as follows:— —The revolving year hag brought ns, one) f which “we are most Justify proud.

The military display was not so fine this year as usual—not that all the regiments did mot rospect the or- ders of their Major General, for they did, and as a gene- ral thing madea véry creditable appearance; but the difficulty was, that anticipating » warm day, many of them did not parade, and from this cause several of our bent regiments looked much thinner than they should bave done. Besides, the general order mate it appear 4s though they were to be under arms in the hot sun four bours, and in view of the numerous caces of coup de solcil Intely eocutring, the delicate and sickly men did not feel disposed to run any rink. These causes all combined belped to make the perade this year compare unfavorably with those of former years. ‘There was not over 3,000 men out in the Division yesterday, when the usual pumber is over 5,000, But though the military turnout was ae that of th people to view them was not, At whatever place they appeacede eager crowds followed them, and oa the line of the appearance of the streets was brilliant im the aires eo windows of the houses along the route were filled with well dressed ladies, to wi the glit tering spectacle as it swept past.
