Celebration at Bunker Hill. Boston,June 18. The fiftieth anniversary of the Battle ol Bunker Hill has passed, and with it a scene of splendour and solemn grandeur wine must ever he fresh in the recollections ol the countless thousands who witnessed it. A more imposing scene has never been pre Rented loan American eye, or a more a f lectin" one brought home to an American heart T and while patriotism has existence, our country a name, and the heroes ol our glorious revolution a place in story, Ameri can bosoms will swell high with the recol lection of this memorable day. Contrary to the indications of the atmos pherc on Thursday, the weather yesterday was verv line. The rain had cooled the air, and laid (he dust. The sun rose in unclmul ed majesty, and a richer and fresher green j impart d additional beauty to the thick shrubbery of the city, and the romantic and undulating landscape ol Charlestown, in the midst of which stands the hallowed height of Bunker Hill. The day was ush ered in hy a salute of 24 guns from the navy yard. And as orders had been given for an early formation ol the procession, the whole town was soon alive by the universal stirring of its own population, the tens ol thousands who had lor three days been pouring into it Irom all directions, and the numbers of the numerous societies which were to form at places previously designated, to join in the grand procession. The troops of the city, consisting ot se veral regiments, were designated to lonn the escort, and paraded in the mall, ami the civil procession lormed in Bark and Bt a ttou-sneels ; and ui icn uVl<mjU, U«c v,1,..1« moved off, passing through many of the principal streets to Charlestown, in the fol lowing orders:— KSCORT.

Tt The mcinhcrs of the several societies all wore their distinctive badges, and different badges were procured for the surviving sol diers f the Battle, of Bunker Hill, ami those who had served elsewhere in the Revolution arv Army. Those who had served at Bun ker 11 ill and elsewhere, wore two badges.— From (he length of the procession, and the sinuous course ot the streets, there was no opportunity afforded of viewing the whole of it at any one time. But by a signal agreed upon and given on the arrival of the head of ilii* procession at Charleston n Bridge it was ascertained that the rear was then passing the Old South Meeting House —be- ing a distance following the streets through which it passed, ol about one mile and a half, fumed six and seven abreast. On as cending and passing round the height culled Breed’s Hill, which was in fact the site ot the American redoubt, and the immediate scene, of the bluodv engagement on the 17(h of June, 1775, a magnificent spectacle was presented to view, as the eye ran along the procession, ami glanced upon the Uniting banners of the several societies, ami ritli) dresses of the various masonic eiders, th -jj burnished arms, embroidered uniforms, and! nodding plumes ol the oHirers and soldiers;! ami last, though not least, die thousands olj well dressed females who tilled every win 1 dow ami Piazza of Charlestown. Indeed ! the windows of every house in Boston fron-|' ting the streets through which the pieces i 1 sion moved were tilled with ladies, and lhe|' streets thronged with people. Aside from] 1 the usual pomp ot a military and civic pro cession, the splendour of this was much m creased bv the clothing ami emblems of the Masonic fraternity, of whom there were from eighteen hundred to two thousand, arrayed in their various udiforms and jewels. I'he deep blue and purple sashes ot the lower or ders, the beautiful crimson ones of the Com panies of die Royal Arch I) gree, and the rich black aprons and sashes ot the Tnn plars, ornamented with silver, combined tot increase the splendour of the display and] heightened die effect. Arrived at the appointed place, the pro | cession was formed into a hollow square, * v.. mar account »»}• the cumber el* Mason* present was and the ceremonies of laying the corneri stone of the projected monument, were per 1 formed in due and ample form, by die M. VV. Grand Master and officers of the Mas-j sachusetts Grand Lodge, assisted by Gen. Lafayette and the President of the Monu nenl Association, the Hon. Daniel Web iter. The moment these interesting and impressive ceremonies were completed, at a given signal the welkin rang with the loud and repeated huzzas ot the assembled mul titude ; for it must be understood, that those who composed the procession, formidable as it was in length and numbers, formed but a small portion of the assemblage. There were in addition, more than sixty thousand freemen, gazing intently, and with throb bing bosoms, upon the solemn spectacle. The procession then moved a few rods to the rear, on the side of the hill where the ißritish troop,s landed to make the attack, j (where arrangements had been made for the delivery of the Address of the President, and the religious exercises of the day, and where seats had been provided for the gen tlemen composing the procession, and for a large number of ladies, forming a sort of semi-amphitheatre. On the lower side of this was erected a temple, orna minted with evergreens of various kinds, with festoons . intertwined with a variety of (lowers. — Within tills temple, upon a platform, were seated the Governor, and other distinguish : ed officers past ami present, several dtstin -1 guished guests from abroad, the leading ’ Committees, and those who were to take part in the exercises. On either side of this ' temple were wings, extending forward at 1 ar, angle of about forty-live degrees, to the distance of two hundred feet, covered yvilh sol cloth, and provided with seats for the ladies. Anil 1 need not say they were all • filled. The seats for those who lormed the [procession, were upw mis of sixty, capable of holding two hundred persons each, and these were also tilled ; so that there was a seated audience, (or rather, there would uve been, if all would have done as they should,) of about (ifeeii thousand persms. The exercises were commenced hy a pi ous, fervent, and patriotic pray r, by die Rev. Joseph Tluxter, Chaplain ol Col. '■ Prescott’s Regiment, who was in the battle of Bunker Hill. The following beautiful j hymn, written for the occasion, by tin Rev. John Pin pout, was then sung to the tune ol j J Old Hundred : * O, is not this <i holy spot ! ’ i ts Hi*’ high place of Freedom's birth:— ooil o!‘our fathers !is it not The holiest spot of all the earth? Quenched is thy flame on Horeb’s side : \ The robber roams o'er Sinai now ; Anl those old nun. Ihy se* rs, abide 3 No more on /ion's mournful brow. But on Ihii hill thou, Lord, hast dwelt. Since round its head the wur-oloitd curled, And wTHpj'«d "tir fathers, where 'bey knell, In prayer mid buttle for a world. H •re sleeps their dust; His holy ground, And we, Hie children of Hie brave. From the four winds are gathered round, To lay our offering on their grave. Free as the winds around us blow, Free as yon waves below us spread, \\ i ri i.r a | le. thni long shall throw lis shadow on their s ered bed. But *n their deeds no shade shall fall, W bile o’er their couch thy sun shall flame . I I bine ear was bowed to hear their call, * And (hy right hand shall guard their fame. ; The President of the Association, (be lion. ■ Daniel Webs'er, then rose and pronounced j ; an address of more than an hour’s length, a sketch of which 1 h ive not time to give.j even if it were allowable for a reporter to ! lay his rude hands upon so splendid and polished a performance. He commerced \ witii a rapid and glowing allusion to the, three great epochs which distinguish the his | lory of our country. Its discovery, its set-j (lenient, and its revolution ; of which latter, one of the most splendid events, was the action fought on he ground where we were assem bled, — He noticed the cause which had brot’. us ogetlier— in erect a monument in com memoration of the gallant action of this day -50 years since—and to manifest to succeed ing generations, that we were not unmind-j lid of the bh ssings which were purchased at) ihe price of so valuable blood. He then ad-1 dressed with feeling eloquence the survivors j'i of the battle, at toe close paving a finished! tribute in the memory of Warren. He next ] , addressed the survivors of the revolution,! and spake in person to the man who yet a-|i live, has passed uncoiitaminaied through the j" vicissitudes of a most appalling revolution, | who all-gloriously rode out that tempest in, i which empires swung from their moorings, 1 and who thrice in his eventful life, has bo- I held a nation bending in lowly gratitude be- c ifore him, ami pouring out at his feet the u niversal tribute of heartfelt admiration. i These addresses took up rather more than j half ol the discourse. Mr. VV. tlien pro leeeded to some ot die n flections to which the occasion naturally led, particularly whenr considered in connexion wiiliits effects mil other nations. II • deliniuted with the dis (crimination of the statesman and die elo- / iqnence of the orator, the present political state of Kurupe, the bearings of the politi cal question which is there tit present atiita- ’ ted, and the controlling power which Provi- >■ deuce has assigned to ihis country, over the civilized world. He com bided bv nrgi.g the high patriotism, the devoted love of country, to which these considerations nat urally incited us. I'he address was deliv ered in clear and audible tones of voice, (and with great effect, uoiwi.hstanding the j orator labored under the fierce blaze of the -mi pouring the whole time deectly upon i His nncovei ed head. The bursts of applause often compelled him to pause, and the con clusion was lollowed by long and continued cheers. The following hymn, by the Rev. James Flint, written tor the occasion, was then su tig : Tunc—“ St, Martin's ” O glorious day ! that saw the array Oi freemen in their might, . t . When here they stood, unused to blood, Vet dared th’ unequal fight. The sons are met to own the debt to their father's fame ; .And here they jduce the column's base i o bear their deathless name. ’ Pis not that here the victor’s cheer K-ung o’er the falling foe, — That e rtli here drank ol many a rank The hle-bluoJ’a gushing How . The pledge here given to eanU and heaven Freemen to live or die Tins gives their fame its sacred claim To immortality. To (Soil, who willed a stale to build, llased on the rights ol man, Glory w« gi.e, who this duy lire i'o hail th’ accomplished plan. ■ A concluding address to the throne of grace was otter ell by the Rev. Jam s Wal ker ; alter winch, the following Ode was sung : Tune—“ Ye Mariners of England." Why hangs the sword unhonoured • Why sleeps the weary gun > And why your eagle told his wing, As if death's work wen; done I It is, that on this -hi red hill Vour gallant father* hied, And your shore Never more ‘ hull hear the Hostile tread ; Then treasure till liic’s latest hour The memory of the dead.

TSuch is the scarcity of vessels in our harbor that one of those ex pected from the north, has been taken up, we are informed, for the transportation of Cotton to Liverpool at Ijd per lb. Freight to the north are proportionality high—lj , cents per lb, has been agreed to be paid in aj New-York packet expected, and 1$ could 1, probably be obtained by a vessel at the wharf. We understand from passengers, tha’ thei] continuance of the wind in its present cptar- , ter, lias caused a current along the coast to the north of two miles per hour. Under these!] circumstances, it wt.i not surprise us if we i should liave to report some of our packets, as j was the ca*e with a vessel a lew years ago— “ ail Summer from Se v-Vork." flie want of means of transportation, is one among the , causes of the present languor in the Cotton ■. market.

JIUGVSr.fi : TUESDAY, JULY 5, 1825. ■ Among all the productions of this sea son of excitement, there is perhaps none so j extraordinary as the letter of Major An drews to the displaced Agent. Even the iEssays of Justice and X. Y. Z. issued [from the South-Carolina press, are thrown i into the shade by it. VVe were told that iMajor Andrews “ from his high character," i possessed the confidence of the Executive, and although we had never heard or read lof this gentleman before, it was hoped that Georgia would receive courteous treatment, at least at his hand. The proud expres sions of the Secretary at War were unkind enough—but we were wholly unprepared for this attack from a subaltern of the De partment. In his letter to the Agent an nouncing the determination to suspend him. Major Andrews ha* openly censured the Le gislature of our state, and declared an im pression in relation to the evidence collec ted by it, wholly incompatible with the cha- racter of a judge which by his appointment ( he was railed upon to sustain. His course was a plain one, and should not have been mistaken. If as he says, he believes the late nge.it innocent of the charges preferred a gainst him—neither civility to the authori ties of Georgia or any other cause should have induced him to suspend the \gent, and whatever may be Ids impressions or opinions, they should have reposed in his own bosom, until the investigation was complete. He -•fainly stepped aside to find fault with - on the part of this state— smallest necessity for it, vhe is not warranted \ i die President.— gislature was ne < -Agent was not res- Gem e has said in print e had no right to call et'ence. Her business charges and collect the ng to the request of the ivernment. This has been their publication, it. was un m the nature of things. The proceedings were public, and use find their way to the press, ecu otherwise, and the Iteport had eip secret conclave, and submit- , o great, privacy and caution to the •States Commissioners, we should not ss have been blamed. We should then heard of an inq isitional investigation ■ecret plottings against the. Agent, Sfc. ius prejudice is like a two edged sword, & \ zounds in whatever quarter it may be mov ed. Hut it was proper to print both the Report and the Documents accompanying it; lor die. State of Georgia has been cen- - Biired—the odium nl (he recent unhappy events in the Creek Nation, was sought to be fastened upon her public servants, and it was the duty of the Legislature to spread thewhole matter before the people, that they might form an unbiassed and correct judg ment. H the report had gone abroad "with out the evidence, there might have been cause for complaint; but the evidence up on Winch that Report was founded has gone with it, and the people will decide whether the conclusions of the one are authorised by the strength of the other. At all events it was not for the Judge of the Agent's care to complain—it was for the Agent or his advocate to da so. It is “ cau*e for sur prise” as well as regret, that Major An drews should have expressed himself in such terms before the trial as to give room for a propheci/, whether it he true or false ot that “ decision which must inevitably re sult” from his investigations. We have no disposition to stir up the blood’'" of our citizens. The fever of the moment is high enough—but we must say that we are not well treated by the conduct of the United States Officer, and we hope the President will disavow it and make the pro per atonement, 1 i In conclusion we will add that although |the President and the Secretary of War a' l exalted chaiacter”—to use (he j major’s words—and reliance may be pla ced upon their justice—their character is not higher or more exalted than that belong ing to Governor Troup and the Legislature ;of Georgia. There is no man in Georgia, who desires the punishment of the A"ent if he be innocent of the charges against him— but—b.r Heavens’ sake—let the trial be a fair one both lor G ■ o-gia and for fii in . V c shall when more at leisure sav a word or two upon ,1/r. King's Resolution "i 1 18 l )ra,s ‘‘ ,! . find, in a latitude where we least expected it to be. We may also hereafter notice the South-Caiolma Bulletins issued bv Justice and X V Z although these last are so full of ridiculous misrepresentations as to make them worthy ol no Other destiny, than to be added as an appendix to the next edition of Mr. Pauld ing's JVew Munchausin.
