July 4th (search for this): article 1
Fourth of July. This national anniversary will pass by under circumstances novel and strange. It cannot be celebrated in the usual style. The condition of the country does not admit of that. We have a war, in which the very people who asserted their independence on this day, eighty-five years ago, are struggling, the one for the maintenance of the principles of that independence, the other for crushing them to death. The day is still to us a day memorable for the assertion of principles we revere, and mean to defend with our lives and the last drop of our blood, while to them it should be a day of mourning for the liberties which it proclaimed, but which they have lost, probably forever, in order to force the yoke of tyranny upon the South. It is to be regretted that one of the incidents of the present struggle is the inability of our people to celebrate this day according to usage — indeed it would be inappropriate at such a time to undertake to observe it in that manne

r to force the yoke of tyranny upon the South. It is to be regretted that one of the incidents of the present struggle is the inability of our people to celebrate this day according to usage — indeed it would be inappropriate at such a time to undertake to observe it in that manner. But it is a sufficient tribute to it that we are engaged in the maintenance of the principles of human rights and liberty it announced, and that we are ready to sacrifice our lives and all we have in the effort. Could the departed sages of '76 behold the scenes of today, they could desire no better evidence of devotion to their acts and principles than is displayed by the people of the South. Today, when the North meets in Congress to approve tyranny, to sanction usurpation, and sustain a war of oppression and desolation, we are at our guns ready to resist that war, and to triumph or perish in the struggle for the principles of the unanimous declaration of the immortal Congress of 4th July, 1776.

He was about 30 years of age, and married his wife in the county of Nelson, where she now is. After the remains were prepared for burial, they were carried to Bosher's Hall, where a guard was kept over them all night by Lodge Francaise, F. M. The funeral will take place this evening at 4½ o'clock from Rev. Mr. Baker's Church, (Grace.) Among the rumors connected with this melancholy affair, was one to the effect that deceased had been seen going towards the laboratory smoking a cigar. Several persons declared that they saw him going thither smoking, a short time before the explosion was heard. Is is said that he was not in the habit of smoking.

His assistant, Mr. Clayton, was found in a reclining posture against a post, doubled up as if he had suffered a fearful contortion. He was perfectly insensible, and so remained up to a late hour last night, but it was not ascertained to what extent he was internally injured. Drs.

It is certain, however, that a cigar was found in the pocket of his coat, which he had pulled off and hung on the wall of the interior room, where it remained until after the explosion. Mr. Laidley was late of the firm of Laidley & Robertson, druggists, Franklin and Fourth streets, and at the time of his death did business alone, on North Main street, square above the Second Baptist Church. He was an estimable man in all the relations of life, and a valuable citizen. His untimely death is much deplored. It has only been a few weeks since that a pound of detonating powder blew down the private dwelling of Mr. Edward T. Finch, chemist, and caused his death, in this city.--Both gentlemen were working for the benefit of the
