TUESDAY, JULY 7, 1835.

CELEBRATION OF THE FOURTH OF JULY.

By the friends of the Administration, at M'Makin's

In pursuance of public notice, previously given, the glorious Anniversary of our National Independence was celebrated at the above place, in a manner worthy the day, and the descendants of our ancestors who won it. The day was a delightful one, and harmonised with the associations which its recurrence ever calls up in the minds of the millions of American freemen, who, on this great festival, offer up the incense of their thanks at the shrine of the Goddess of Liberty, for the blessings which they enjoy. The Celebration was well attended. and the proceedings, throughout, were in accordance with the occasion which induced the coming together of so many warm hearted Republicans from the City and Country. A large table was tastefully spread under a pleasant arbour erected for the purpose, which was profusely covered with the luxuries of the season. The arrangements were creditable to the host. .At two o'clock precisely the numerous company took their seats at the table. Dr. Mount presided—E. S. Haines, Esq. officiated as Vice President, and Louis P. Day, Esq. was appointed Secretary. Among the distinguished guests were our late worthy Representative in Congress, Hon. R T Lytle, & J. B. Nevitt, Esq. one of the Vice Presidents of the Baltimore Convention. The reception which the company gave Mr Lytle showed that there had been no falling off among his Democratic friends and constituents, in their confidence and affection for him. Mr. Lytle addressed the company twice, once in response to a sentiment drank in compliment to him, and again to express his sentiments upon the Ohio Life and Trust Company. We have heard Mr Lytle frequently upon the floor of Congress, but never heard him to better advantage than upon this occasion. The other principal speakers were Mr. Read, and Mr. Sommes of the Navy. The remarks of both gentlemen were very pertinent and well received.

The company dispersed about half past four—quietly and orderly. The proceedings in extenso will be given to-morrow.

The Draymen of the City celebrated the Anniversary of our Independence, by marching through the streets in procession. They were very neatly and uniformly attired, and all mounted.

The German residents of the city, also, had a procession. which we did not witness, but we are informed that they made a very respectable and imposing appearance. There is something peculiarly gratifying in these manifestations of respect, by foreigners, for a day hallowed in the remembrance and respect of free-born Americans.
