Th Anirary of American Independence waa eelebraited la Ihta Cily with onuaual brillianef. Nt w before, bare H Vitneaaee! greater apirit and en thttaairm. ; - T Aaliaeharp ef Cannon nottrtced the dawn of that day hallowed In the affections or Americana, at which time tStblX9fad.f)M..iW?yi from the CapW. " At Sanriae, appropria Religious trrjec wa,iyi!rftrnted at the Preabjrteriaa Church, where neat ndTpatriotie Address wa delivered by Ret. ThoIiai i 8. Cmmell, of the IffBthodiat Church. Thia feature in the oelebration of our National An nirereajry, ii, for aa we know, peculiar te Raleigh, and eertaiuly comporti well with the genioue of onr InatitolioM, and with the auperior obligation that we owe te Ilearen. Ae pure Republican feeling, ui devotion to oar country's interest, can be cher ished in the solemn quietude of the Sanctuary, aa amidst the restleaa crowd, the dust of Processions, er the roar of Artillery. At 11 o'clock an imposing Procession was formed before the Conr House, pursuaul to the Programme issued by the Marshal, and published in our last, which moted iu the prescribed order to the Presbyte rian Churcb. The houae was rilled to overflowing, ' and every eye beamed with triumphant exultation, at the returh of thia " glad day." A Band of Music, stationed in the Gallery, played a National air, after which Rev. Dntrty Lacv addres sed the Throne of Grace. His prayer was pure in style, patriotic in sentiment, and becoming the de vout offerings of a free peoplejojhe God of their Fa thers, and the author of all theii Civil and Religious blexaings. To this eucceeded an Original Anthem, with Music 'arranged by Mr. William D. Cook, which eras sung with fine effect. The Declaration of Independence swu then read by Mr. G. E. B. Sjn-. oeltast, and we certainly never heard it read before in a more forcible and impressive manner. After the singinej of an Original Ode, with Music arranged by Mr. II. I. SotOMONS, the Oratiou was .deUrered by Mr. Wtuiax. 8. Phtast..; Its dial in- gaishiag characteristic was originality of thought, and this, of ilaelf, is no mean praise. Forsakinij the beat en track pdrsued by .moat of Fourth of July Orators, the young Speaker struck out a new path ; and, in stead of dwelling upon the feats of our " glorious an- eeatera," hespoke df the Nation as it 1s, and defined the elements of true National greatness. The Ora besides Its originalilyT had" another great merft all ha eenlimenta were conaerVative. His tribute ts the officiality of the West Point course of instruc tion, to the parity- of our Judicial system, and the integrity of the Old North State, and his just criti cisms en the excess of Party Spirit, the prostitution of the political Press, the tendency of popular feeling to Mobocracy, and the practical results of demigog am, in elevating incompetent men to office, met with .hearty sesponse in every bosom. After a patriotic Air, the immense auditory was dismissed, the Benediction having been pronounced ky Rev. Dr. Wilson, of the Caldwell Institute. After leaving the Church, a Grand National Sa lute waa fired, and the Military, which never looked better, went through a variety of evolutions. la the afternoon, the children of the Presbyterian, Baptist and Methodist Suuday schools, to the. num ber of probably 200, assembled at the - Methodist Chnrch. Mr. Hamden S. Smith had been selected to deliver an Addreaa on the occasion, a task which he executed with equal taste aud talent, fully attaining !h at;h veawUMMi vrhiek he established for himself, ty his performance on the last annual recurrence of this Anuiversary. II illustrated most forcibly the value of Sunday Schools, by which huudreds nre yearly reacued from ignorance, profligacy and crime, and made capable of becoming useful members of society. He enforced tbe vajue or Una institution aa lnetitution in wmoii tne rniianmropisi, as wen the Christian, should feel the deepest interest, and to which he should contribute his assistance. What ever tends to promote the moral and intellectual im provement of society, is an object which should be cherished by the good and virtuous. It is to this yeuug mind, that thia salutary instruction is calcula- M to be commnutcated with the greatest and best ef- 1ecL It is then, that impressions are more easily tnd lastingly made, and tbe amount of good resulting frtra the united eo-eperation of thousands thus eu- Jjed, Sabbath after 8abbalh4hroughoul the country, ia communicating instruction, cannot be estimated. u a secret c arrant, moving sileatly, but resistless! y, and gradually diffusing fertility and beauty as it ad- I!nees, till all the complicated ramifications of so- wty shall feel and enjoy the blessings it bos produced. The deepening ahadra of Eveuing was the signal for repairing te Capitol Square, which bad been tastefully illuminated with variegated lamps. The light waa still, and the lights abone mildly amid the foliage ef tha majestic Oaks. Not less than a thou and paraoua were present during the evening, all of whom aaamed greatly to enjoy the Music, the O rttioa, the Firt-Works, and the Balloon ascension. At 8 o'clock, tha Mecklenburg Declaration of Iu- waa read by Mr. U S. Smith, and an Sl.VOtXTAXT. the to whom, our community is greatly indebted for hie unwearied efforts to contribute to tboir gratification oa all public occasions. Much praiae ia also due (a Mr. O. A. Buck, Chief Marshal, and bis Assistants, Messrs. Root aud Man it, for tba propriety of the arrangements, and the or der with which they were carried out. ' CORRECTION. The name ef the Rev. John A. Bingham, Profes sor of the Latin Language in the Caldwell Insti Tura, was accidentally omitted among those on whom tne Honorary degree of Master of Arts, waa confer red at "the late Commencement of our University. O Ws must decline the insertion of the Marriage communicated from Mocksville, being nnaecompa nied by a responsible name,. RAIL ROAD MEETING. The citizens of Fayetteville and ita vicinity, inter ested iu the Construction of a Rail Road from Raleigh to that place, and through to Camden, held a meet ing on Wednesday last, to take the aubject into con eidaratioiij end adopt sqme measures to begin the work. We have not beard the result. THE INDEPENDENT. This paper, heretofore printed in this vicinity, has been removed to Wilmington, where it has made its appearance in a new and enlarged form, and promi ses to continue a powerful auxiliary iu the defence at Whig principles. r ., ID" Alexander W. Hogan and Daniel Bulla, are Senatorial candidates in Randolph Comity ; and for the Commons, Messrs. Alfred Drawer, Zebedee Rush, E. Birckhend and Isaac White are the candidates. All of them are Whigs. I resurr s hands ample to meet all demands. Lib eral allowance has beun made to cover all payments or i unoer, supplies, aud contingencies of all kinds. v 'i Ad rel,ta ,,,B present condition of the Road, both the Road it-elf and the Machinery have been much improved since it became the property of the State. There have been a few slight derangements of tha Train, but no accident of a serious character ; and it may be asserted with truth, that derangements ol the Train from every cause have been of le frequent occurreiiee than on any neighboring Road. Besides ordinary repairs of the Road, which have beeu carried aa fur as the true interests of ihe- Road sef-med to require, There has been much done of a pennaneot character; such aa making extensive al terations in the Bridge at Gaston likewise of .the Locomotives, putting under them 4 driving wheels instead of 3, as heretofore, thereby rendering them """ wuoiesH ana permanent. J lie sum already ex GLORIOUS OLD JOHNSTON ! Wa have the pleasure of atating, lliat a Ticketfor the Legislature, has been brought out iu this Coun ty, which, we should think, it would be impossible to defeat. We shall therefore lookout for a glorious re sult from this County, iu August. " Tis not in mor tals, to command success," but we know our gallant champions will " deserve" it. The meeting took place at Smithfield on the 4th of July, where it is said, there was the largest col lection of people ever seen there on such an occasion. Dr. J. T. Leach presided, and Messrs. Needham B. Stevens, and Blaekman Lea, acted as Secretaries. aJFhe following Resolutions were T adopted unani mously ; and ordered to be published in the Whig papers of Raleigh t ftetolted, That the Whigs of Johnston, reDOsiiirr special confidence in the ability, lofty Patriotism, and thorough W hig principles of our preserit worthy I . A- li, ... aim cnicieui uuveruor v ji. a. uaAHAS, will give him a'eordral ansj hearty support at the coming Au gust election believing as do. that the Interest or the euate, the whole State, could not be put into a. Dler or worthier bands, Rrmlrtd, That the Whiga of Johnston, in the sin cerity of their hearts, believe, that the principles of tne party to which they belong, tend to the produc tion of the happiest results to our Country at large, aud oer State in particular : Therefore, we feel it to be a duty, to select from among ourselves, men of tried and hrm Whig pnuciplea to represent us in the next Legislature. Ketolv4d, That we have the utmost confidence in Jesse Adams, John McLkod and Asiii.kv Sanders, and therefore respectfully recommend them to the free Voters of our County, as Gentlemen every way qualified to advocate tAeir interests in the Legisla ture of our State at its eamiag session, viz : Mr. Ad ams, iu the Senate, aud Messrs. McLeou and San. deks in the Commons. THE RAIL ROAD. In the last "Standard" there ia an article, in which the Editor endeavors to oeutrsvert the cor rectness and weaken the force of the Slaleroaut which was published by us a few numbenbabk, prepared by the Treasurer of the Raleigh and Gaton Road, ihow iug the Receipts and Disbursements for the last five months. - IfVill be seen, when the facta are more particular ly stated, that in thia attempt, the Editor of the "Standard" haa failed and that ha haa preferred charges, by innuendo at least, against the Officers and Commissioners of the Road, which are unjust and unfounded. Iu the Report of the Treasurer, there ia no " flourish of trumpets," aa ia asserted by. th " Standard," but a plain statement from the Books of ' tba Road, which the most illiterate reader ef that print could have easily understood, had the Editor chosen to have published that Report even by the side of his own misrepresentation and erroneous com ment. The Books ef the Road are open to the in. spection of th most suspicious and incredulous of.the Editor 'a friends, and even he, upon application, will be afforded very opportunity to detect any error, which may bavs been fallen into by the Officers of the Road. We challenge the Editor to such Invest!, gntion, and to a full aud scrutinizing enquiry of the, Officers of the Road, (we mean the I'refiident and Treasurer, who are of his own party.) It will beseeu, upon examining Mr. Vass' Report, that the Receipt of the Road, after deducting alt that was actually paid tor expenses during the lost five jnonlhs, amount to $12,093 50. The Commissioners, before directing the $7,200 to he paid to the State Treasurer, niude particular en quiry as lo tliej, amount of outstanding debts against the Road, and reserved enough to-discharge every li ability contracted since the Iioad has been under their management. All the uflkee and laborers are p.iil quarterly or monthly, if they desire it. It is true, the payments iu the month of January amount to but $457 ; but, it should be remembered, that when the Uoad, on the 1st January lust, came into the hands of the present managers, it was without funds, and that the pay of the officers and laborers, not being due. the expenssaof January were sot paid till the month of February, which is clearly shown by the Report. The "Standard" says, the public are curious to know, how it is that the Road has become all at once so nrofitable, whereas it paid no income to the State for three years previous to January last. -This. can be easily and sati.'factorily answered.

WAtHntoTON, June 80. Mr. Buchanan ha taken leave of the Stata Department, and thi dav wa nominated for one of tb Judge of the Supreme Court, for the Cir cuil of Pennsylvania, pairs. Westatedin our last, in a -basty paragraph, that the surplus was applied to old. debts, but we learn thai this was an error, theurplus profits liaving been ex clusively applied to, tbe repair of thtjtoad, wilb exceplinrT U I HUUSAND DOLLARS, which were paid into the State Treasury, before the sale of the Road. We place this amount in Capitals, because the " Standard" again asserts, in the face of truth, that nothing Was raid by the Road brfort the sele. Whatever may le said by the " Standard," or his complaining friends to the contrary, the Road is, at this time, in better repair than it has been for four or five years past. The Editor insinuates that this Report was made out to deceive that it was issued on the eve of our Election, " to keep the present dynasty in power" aud he expressly charges that " Governor Graham, alarmed at his impending doom, ordered this Report to be made out te suit his own convenience, and lo appease the public wrath." In all this, there is not one tittle of truth, and the Editor has yet to learn the character of the two worthy gentlemen (members of his own party,) who have the immediate manage ment of the Road, if he supposes thrm capable of lend- try. -M was a poll tux, 'and the people, of Ohio would not pay 11. j ticso articles were in Use by all the people, add most used by the poor. .
