Dark clouds gathered fm the heavens, and soon @ thick, heavy and drenching gain shower poured down upon the city, making ead havoc ‘@f light coats, bouncts, hats and clothing generally, and throwing considerable damper on patriotism. It was Seared that this would put an end to the sport * ‘Ser the rest of the day; but the rain, after lasting for @dout an hour, completely “dried up,” and the sky geared off beautifully, leaving the weather much more gee) and agreeable. The celelration was, therefore, Pe mewed with increased ardor, and when night set in every- thing was in splendid condition for the freworks, Roman candles, pin wheels, bluc lights and firecrackers blazed away in front of privato houses, while thousands of people crowded the parks to, witness the grand pyro- fechuic lisplays of the Corporation, ‘The celebration was Kept up moti! the small hours of the morning of the Sth. We give below a full and graphic ‘account of how the day was cok brated, a8 faithfully photographed by our re- porte: THE MILITARY PARADE AND REVIEW. Fair weather is a necessary concomitant of a grand military review, and in this respect our citizens were par- Picularly favored on the Fourth. The sun shone forth Whrough a clear sky, and his rays came down on terra Firma with suflicient force to make everything appear Preazant. Indeed, we could not have desired more plea- sant weather. arly in the morning the air reverberated ‘with the strams of martial music attending tho various military companies and regiments in their marchings and gountermarchings, in golng from their armorics to the Mivision Parade Ground in Fourteenth street, where a general review took place in presence of His Excel- Mevcy Governor FE. D. Morgan, As we stated ‘Wefore, the parade ground was in Fourteenth street, the Fight of the military column resting on Broadway. When mil the troops of the division had arrived at the proper place in line it mustered thirteen regiments of all arms ef the service, and extending over one half of a mile im kength. Tho temporary headquarters of Governor Mor- gan and staff were at the Metropolitan Hotel, from whenco they were escorted by the excellent Washington Gray ‘Troop, Capt. J. M. Varian. His Excellency and staff, in Pull uniform, arrived in Union square ghortly after eight @'clock A. M., and were announced by the usual gaberna- toria} ealote of twenty one guns, fired by a detachment of the Fourth regiment of arti. under the command of Eteut. Damrell. At other points the military ceremonies were truly grand, xnd the svbjoct well worthy the attention of an ertiet. The windows and balconies of the Union Piace Hotel, Everett House, Clarendon Hotel, and the palatia! residences in Union equare, and Fourteenth Street, were filled with the fair forms of a countless num- ber of the beauty and fashion of the metropolis ; the ple- Deians and the less favored of our citizens contented themselves by taxing a sidewall: ylew of the proceedings, ‘and the cma!! beys and the big boys appropriated the @hade trees and lampposts to themselves, from which they might witness the whole affair, The Union park, green with verdure, and the fountain tn its centre in full eperation, throwing up its sparkling jets of pure Croton; ‘the flags on the Louses, the inspiring music of the military ands, und the shouts of ihe spectators, gave the affuir quite s d.gnilied character. The Governor, on his arrival at Unjon square, was re- seived and saluted by Maj. Gon. Sandford, when they pro- peoded to review the troops. The division line was open- ed, arms presente’, when tho Governor and Maj. Gen. Seadferd, accompanied by their staffs, pasved down the Me, the horses at a brisk trot, the regimental bands playing and colors drooping. The review ended, the re- viewing officers returned to the bead of ihe Wjyigion, the Mae was broken into columns by companies, and after p ebort delay marched around Union square and down Broadway. ® Governor Morgan had been a European crowned Read, be could not have created more ¢ nent than he @id at thereview, Everybody was om the tiptoe of ex. ehemert to eco tho Chit Magistrate of the State; and if peed locke or size are integral, or distinguishing charae- teristics by which a crowd recognise the Governor of @ Beste, Governor Morgan may consider himself signaily Dieeved.

A suitable enclosure spade by « chain cordon, aud which served to keep back Wo crowd, was guarded by a detachment of good Booking policemen, in whieh the reviewers were to stand.

TAMMANY SOCIETY CELEBRATION. SPEECHES OF HON. JOHN COCHRANE AND HON. JOHN KELLY—1HE DISSENSIONS IN TH DEMOCRATIC PAR- TY TO BE HEALED—ONE BANNER TO TAKE THE PLACE OF MANY-—HOW IS IT TO BB ACCOMPLISHED? The chiefs, sachems xnd warriors ef Tammany were Summoned to assemble in the Great Wigwam at twelve o'clock, to participate in the celebration of the Fourth— he order of exercises being announced as music by Shel- ton’s Brass Band, the select pieces being “Washington’s March,” “Hail Columbia,” and “the Star Spangled Ban- ner”—an address by Grand Sachem James Conner—the reading of the Declaration of Independence by Brother John T. Hoffman, and an address by Brother John Coch- rane. From twelve o’clock till one the band discoursed music from the balcony, from which also a num- ber of the “governing classes” amused themselves by showering fire crackers and torpedoes on the passers by ; but at the latter hour the attendance of ‘chiefs, sachems ‘and warriors’ was exceedingly slim. Elijah F. Purdy was there—the War Horse of the ‘democracy—so was John Cochrane, its dramatic orator, and so was Priace John ‘Van Buren, its punster and joker {n ordinary. The Sheriff, John Kelly, came in befors the proceedings com- menced, There were also present W. D, Kennedy, D, E. Delavan, Deputy Sheriffs Duniap and Cornell and Douglas ‘The only federal officer whose presence we 0d- seryed was Anson Herrick. The slim attendance was accounted for by the fact that the usual supply of liquids and solids, which has been from time immemorial an ac- companiment of Fourth of July celebrations at Tammany, ‘was not forthcoming. Was it that the office holders will pot pay up their assessments, and that, therefore, the funds of the society are at a low ebb, or that deemed advisable to avoid the unseemly rush to the re'reshment room that aas always charac- Taylor. it was terized such occasions? these reasons may have had their intlueace. them was sufficient.

Both barges were very tastefully de- corated with bunting of all descriptions, and, with the crowded and pleased passengers, formed quite an interest- ing picture. At about twelve o'clock the two barges were towed out into the stream, at about a distance of 400 feet from the shore, and there anchored so as to enable the guests to have a good view of the coming regatta. On board the Common Council barge they had Robertson's band, which helped very much to enliven the scene, by playmg fat short intervals some of the most fashionable and in- spiriting airs. On both of the barges they had a colla- tion for the’guests; but there appeared to be a general complaint of the small quantity of edibles, while, there were plenty of drinks to be obtained on all sides. A per- son who obtained a sandwich was ‘considered extremely fortunate, and there were many who went hungry all the day. ‘The appearance of the Battery attracted unusual atten- tion, on account of its crowded state. From one end to ‘the other there was nothing to bo seen but human beings, and the estimate made by those who were judges of the number of persons gathered on the Battery to view the regatta was nearly twenty thousand. The neighboring piers and docks were also crowded with people, all anxious to witness the races and to cheer on their fa- vorites. The only drawback to the day's amusement was the storm that sprong up, and helped to dampen the ardor of all in more than one sense, Those in the judges’ boat were exposed to it all, and bad to patiently sit and weather the storm, which lasted for nearly half an hour. ‘The small awning over the boat, instead of serving as a protection to thosa Beneath, only gathered the rain, and then deposited it with force upon the unfortunates below.
