At the termination of the review at tho City Hall, Brign- ‘@ar General Hall tnvited several of the staff and officers of the First division to bis reeidence, 207 West Thirty-fourth street, where a coliation had been prepared. Although the attendance was not eo large as at the reupions usualiy ‘held at Major General Sandford’s house on the celebration of our mational independence, yet the division was wel! represented, and the v*moat enthusiasm prevailed. The Sollation was eagerly partaken of by the offloers, whose Sppetites were more than usually keen from tho fact that many bad joined their regiments at anearly hour without breakfasting, After the edibles had been dis- posed of, General Sail proposed—The day we celebrate. Major axtuon (Judge Advocate) responded in an elo. quentepecch, He said that, although we had a large standing army, which was scattered throughout an im mense extent of territory, we must always depend upoa bur militia organization for the mainteaance of proper order and qoictoess among us. A subject Istely presented _ itself in connection with the icterest of the militia, par- Woularly in the city of New York, which seemed to be of She utmost importance, and he thought that was the Proper time to present it to their consideration. They ‘were that Cay celebrating the Declaration of our National Independence, sed they shoujd recollect Voat it was not eseliy gol—ine, that independence was not arrived at withoui a great struggle and a fearful effort. They should femember that the struggle was a severe one, and they should also reco'lect that the time might come when they would be called upon to defend ‘those Mberties «which our forefathers guined for oe io years gone by. What he wished to call their attention to was that the times bad Chauged and ‘ail thinge in the world around bad changed afilitary scrence, like ail other ectonces, was progressive, and he might eay it had progreseed to 4 moa: wonderful extent, Qs an atieotive reader of what ia going Op ia ovwer coun- $riee and io Evrope could not fail to ot . ‘The tavea- ton of steam, or ri r ita application to the moving of large veses #, steamers, Hosting batwries, &>., the inven. tion aleo of improved’ projectiles and of improved fire arm*, bad changed some*hst the nature and sppoarsace of multvary affairs, and they ehould covsider what nader the circumstances was the best for tuem to do.

The oration was, however, omitted, in consequence of the illness of Hon. John Ooca- rane, which was announced too ‘ate to procure a substi, tute.

Speeches Were mace on the political topics of the day. In the evening there was ® spieadid display of fireworks on the sidewalk at the back of the Tombs prison, THE REGATTA. ‘The great Fourth of July regatta, gotten up by the New ‘York Regatta Ciub, at the instance of a Committee of the Common Council, came off prey nearly in accordance with the programme, and may be set down asa marked and decidedly pleasing feature of the day’s celebration. ‘There was & crowd, variously estimated at from 5,000 to 10,000 persone, along the ebore of the Battery enlarge. ment, a ficet of two or three hundred row boats on the water, and countless larger craft of aJl sorta and shapes scattered along the line of the race, and ledun with eager spectators, There was not much of magnificence ip ihe display, but a great deal of fun and good humor in its inciients.

The “blied band” was on board, however, playing delightfa ly some popular airs. The band consisted of sixteen performers, from tne Institution for the Blind in Thirty-third street, led by Mr. Hazlitt, They played dur- ing the afternoon ail the nationa! airs, and many popular melodies and geleciions from operas, in a style which drew from the crowd rapturous applause. We may state here that after September 1 this rea!'y excellent band will be open for ergaxements. At one o’clock a crowd of Indies and gentlemen ame on board the baige, snd afew miuuts later the old steamtug Thiatle took the barge in tow urd steamed off about thirty rods south of Castle Garden, where an anchor was dropped, and al} bands prepared to epjoy themacives, ‘The lager beer was tapped, the bam sandwiches (much as were whilom fed to distinguished Turks) were brovyut out, segirs and “refrcabmenta’”? were handed arouna, and every body soon felt in » humor to wait patieatly ‘or ihe arrival of the race boats, listening meanwhile to the patriotic mnsic of the poor fellows who vould aot Lope to toe the coming eport.

Among the numerous outleta for the throbbing sud en- thusiastic population of New York on the Fourth, ike greea and spacious fields of Jones’ Wood attracted thousands thitherward. The notice published by Messrs.

Th@ mommvnse which were pat oo the live for the conveyance of passengers from aud to tno clty, a8 well as the Second and Third avenue cars, rupping regularly at intermissions of five minutes, were all filled to overflowing, and plied a thriving and a profita- bie trade. The greatest attraction of all the rest, whicn au- perwdaced this great rush of citizess to the Wood, was the announcement that the balloon “Louisa” would be in flatea by four o'clock, and that ‘‘Professor” J. Pasey, the celebrated seronautic hero of forty-eight flights, would agcend upon another voyage of werial discovery. Towards sttervoop, as the bour epirommben for the ascent, there could not have been less than ten w twelve thon sand persons on the grouads.

Flags were bung out every here, and the whole of the fronts of she square {acing Tammany and ,oa Broadway were filled wita au expectant crowd, The €xbibition began at eight o’elock by the discharge of a number of rockets of various colors, bursting out into stars, serpents and baile of fire, Between each dis charge of rockets the band played some beaatiful air, and the fountains of fire sect up tulip-ahaped balls hike tongucr of light, which produced an excellent effvet, ospecially when reflected through the glass of the windows of the City Hall, The appearance in the surrounding gloom was like some of the scence in a “Midsummer Night's Dream.”” The detonating rockets were reovived with much favor. They ascended to a very great height, and buret with the clear sound of @ pistol, sostrering bright sparks im myriads around. The whee) works and Roman candies were exceedingly Dbeautiiul, and the revolving suns and stars, changing from green to red, and biue and yellow Gres, were moet artistically arranged. Some of these douvie revolving wheels have never Deen surpasted in this city. The steamboat, with paddles, made of varie. gated flame, and the large wire, sendiwg out smoke hike incense from a tube, anc small shooting rockets from the sides, were really pyrotechvic triumphs, and were devervediy spplauced by the multitude. ‘The other pieces were ali equally well arrsaged, and there was no trouble nor difficulty at all in dischargiog them.
