TriE Opening of the Second Cen TURY OF THE REPUBLIC—TIIE AS SEMBLAGE or Magnates—The Celebration on tiie Fourth of July—Scenes About Town—Re pose Among the Wonders of the Art Gallery. [From our Regular Correspondent. 1 Philadelphia, July 7, 1876. At last the long • expected has come and gone, and we l ave reached our hundred years ; nothing has oc curred in the least to mar the general harmony of the occasion. Our mother land, forgetful of the strife and bitter ness of past conflicts, send one of the fuicmost gentlemen of England to do us honor. Germany, unmindful that we arc annually depriving her of mil lions of her choicest sons and daughters flashes her greeting across the sea, and bids us a nearly God-spued. Our old time cousin and friend, Canada, loving as she does, her institutions and her Queen nevertheless, through her Press Association, —representing no less the patriotism than the intelligence of the New Dominion, —joins in cheers for the you g republic and hoorajs :’ur Yankee Doodle It is especially gratifying that th’s should be so and that nations representing even the despotisms of the world rejoice in success AV heu I closed my last letter, it was on the eve of the 3d of July. The whole city was in a state of breathless expeo tation for the night parade which was to precede the ceremonies of the fourth. Towards evening on the 3d the popula tion residing in the upper portions uf the city and its environs turned their faces towards the scene of the proces sion, Street cars were crowded, horses struggling for life, conductors sweat ing men quarrelling, women screaming, till it really seemed as it the utmost limit af human patience had been reachi. d.— Wagons and carriages, of all characters and styles, festooned with flowers r.nd decked with gay ribbons constantly flit ted by. Arriving at the junction of of Broad and Chestnut streets, the scene defied d<. scrij. lion ; a strubbling mass of humanity clicked every street; po licemen struggled with fate and the crowd,notwithstanding the locust and the majesty of the. law, fate and the croffd generally got the upper hands.— By 9 o’clock the Hue of the route was all ablaze with various colored lights, rockets filled the air by the thousand, Old Giory-.illuminated by C c red glare of innumerable port-fires—streamed out upon the night like a star of hope to the short shouting thousands, who for the time being, were forgetful of everything hut the approaching com pletion of the nation’s hundred years.— in my brief space I cannot attempt to describe the procession and more than to sav it was a grand success ; and as the new clock on the old Independence tower announced the hour of twelve, which sounded Ukc the requiem of the depaited century, the street in front of .lm had, and f**>i* many blocks either way was illuminated with ablaze of glo ry : caution thunder, steam whistles screamed, people shouted, drums boat, small arms rattled, till it really seemed as if the roof was gone up or the bot tom was dropped out,or something dred ful had happened til 1 , finally, complete ly exhausted with their own noise, the ceased and peace reigned once more.— Sleep laid his leaden mace upon the eyelids of weary thousands, and for two or three hours there was comparative calm. With the first streaks of the coming day, howevor, was heaid the low roar of a great city waking into ac tive. busy life. The street Arabs, whose liberty is re stricted through all the rest of the year, set off all sorts of pyroteonic abomina tions, and discharge! rusty old pistols, regardlesß*of the clubs of impotent po*. licemen, or the badges of embryo detccs tives. It was, indeed, a glorious day of liberty, to indulge in cheek and impu dences ihat ordinarily overtake these in* fractions of the code civile. The fourth was ushered in with the usual national salute and ringing of bells The morn was one of the loveUcstof the year : the air was balmy, cool and bracing,—just such a day as every one wished to see. At nine o’clock there was not standing room on Chestnut street: a dense mass of people filled every available space along the entire route. Crack regi ments from every portion of the Union participated in the military display, 'fhe President of the United States was absent; but Generals Sherman ad Sher idan, his famed lieutenants, honored the occasion, and the Vice-President of the United States ably presided in the ab sence of his chief. A space about Inde pendence Hall was roped off atip guard ed by a cordon of police, and no one un provided with a pasz was allowed with . in the charmed circle. I will not in flict upon my readers the ceremonies. Suffice to say there was a poem by Ray aid Taylor, which would be delightful reading when one has plenty of time, under the cool shade of an umbrageous tree, with a cooling lemonade at your elbow, but a sore tria' of patriotism un der a broiling sun, with the thermome ter at 120°. Then came an oration by the Hon* Wm. M. Everts, filling five mortal columns of the Ledger. Even patriotism has a limit, and I inwardly resolved that if I attended the uext cen tennial I would bring a hammock and a slight lunch, so that I could get rest and refreshments bet ween the nets. The great Exhibition was comparatively do at; V ted during ihcalkrnoJU of the fourth. ‘Truth Conquers Alt Things.” The halls looked empty and silent, which, of course, was a gicat dis appoint ment to the Centennial Managers, who expected to take in sixty or seventy thousand dollars, at least,on that day. Toward the afternoon matters brighten ed a little, and people began to come in who had been to the celebration down totrn. At two o’clock the Catholic T. A. B. made its appearance at the gate, several thousand thronged to aisist in the dedication of th-e T. A. B. fountain: and right at this point one of the most stupid things was done that I ever heard of on any public occasion. As the cession entered, the police seized every door facinu Memorial IJall, and with their bludgeons prevented anybody from going in and out for nearly an hour and a half; they were as-much prison ers as if they had been in the station hause,and it was not till the last T. A. B. had passed that anybody was allowed to go out. By another stupid arrangement, the fireworks at Fairmouut Park were not set ofi till long after dark, though it must have been evident to the managers that a storm was impending, and they were finally let off in a shower of rain, when thousands wero drenched who might have enjoyed the fireworks, and have been snugly in their homes, if they had been set off at the proper time. However, the day p issed off, as a whole, successfully and pleasantly, with fewer accidents than might have been reason/, ably expected. On the evening of the fourth Dorn Pedro and the Empress at” tended a reception at the mansion of Mr Drexei, the great banker, at which werealso present Sir Edward. Thornton, the British Ambassador, and Generals Sherman and Sheridan, Vice-President Ferry, Gov. Ilartranft, and distinbuish ed representatives of the Foreign Com missions. The army of the Cumberland has had its reunion this week, at which touching resolutions were introduced to the memory of the brave Custar,untime ly death is so universally deplor’d. It is with a feeling of in evpressible relief that I turn from the. tumult of the past week to find an hour of peace in the noble Gallery of Arts. I feel that this is the opportunity of my life, and, once past, it will not come back again. I pity ilie man oi woman who can look upon this wonderful collection and not, feel Uttered bv flic contact. There are many stolid and innorant people who come to this Exhibition, ana 1 have yet to sec the first one from whom something in the collection did wring out an urm bidden cry of pleasure and surprise. I have a higher opinion of my kind for the last few weeks, —they are better than l gave them credit for. The col lection 1 ecame too collossal for one duild ing,nnd a second one had to be put up, larger in area than the first This an. nex, as it is culled, is. full of priceless gems of art. Near the south door is the statue of a child listening to the ticking of a watch, most delightful conception, beautifulla worked out; and not far from it, ouo of thosemarvellous creations that wreath the sculptor’s brow with undying immortality. It is the Flight of Time, by Barzuglia/if Milan. Time is flying past ; be clutches his hour glass, and will not he stoped ; a female has seized and endeavors to im pede his flight, luthe pecdsrut,hlessly on ; her fingers are buried in his flesh ; the rush of the wind, as he toarsalong, sweeps back her garments, that seem on flutter in the wind. The plumag on the wings of time, and the drapery on t’ne female figure, are miriceles of art on ly seen on in a life time. Tell your readers not to forget the splendid Italian mosaics,—rich land scapes of the ruins of Rome, equal in splendor of color and tin to the finest pictures in the eollectiot. And beware of French restaurant! all within the grounds charge the most extortionate prices So I warn all people coming to the Exhibition, —if you sec a sign hav ing anything French about it, givo it a wide berth. Dr 'adbrim. Be Eeouomienl. Take care of the pennies. Look well to your spending’ No matter what comes in, if more goes out you will al ways be poor.

Ilaj'es is a candidate whose weakness and unimportance are his principal re commendations to the Republican party. His record is brief and .-light,though he is fifty-four years old. lie was an Ohio lawyer, served for a time and the army, was twice sent to Congress and thrice elected Governor of llhio—beating Bill Allen for the office last fall. In the army he was a seivicoable effieers : in coDgrcss-he was one of the obscurest members; and in the governor’s office he has performed such routine of duties as was required of him in a way that ex cited do particular comment, llis name in congress or elsewhere has been ident ified with no policy, or measure,or action of any kind. He lias no marked powers that have been brought into play ; lie lias no strong points of character ; be has been but a lucky man in polities. When ex-Govcrnor Noyes nominated him in the convention Thursday he mentioned as one of his most distinguish ed qualifications that lie was a man against win m nothing could he said These points of Hayes’ eharrter, and these features of his career, are inter esting enough: bui they do not prove him to be a lit man for President in times when recommendation of a strong er and more positive kind are required. Above all, Hayes is no reformer. He is not the man to clean out political corruption, to destroy the desperate Rings which have got hold of the coun try, or to do anything'to obliterate the abominations of Grant ism. He is a man who, in the Presidency, would run the machine in as easy and unobjectionable a way as he could, but lie would run it in the old rutt; and this is about the worst thing that could be said of any man who desire to become the success or of Grant.—A".

Cunning men are always suspicions, they know they are cheats, and seem to act as though everybody knew it.—Bil lings. A Family Pyramid. The Louisville Commercial says a party of colored individual took the Southwestern railroad to visit home rel atives near Laker’s Fort, Kentucky. Cpon arriving at the depot, the afore said party stepped out upon the platform of the car p-eparatory to getting off the train, which was passing the platform at the depot. The conductor, seeing the danger they were in, hallowed to them not to jump out. The old negro said : ' l I isgwii eto get off here, wliFe aian: you can’t fool ,me ; l is rid on these here things before to-day,” So saying he leaped from the car up on the platform, and it being covered with sleet, he skated off and fell upon the ground below. The old woman followed his illustri ous example, and over she went on top of the old man. The girl, who weighed about throe hundred pounds, followed her mother and became the capping stone, so to speak, of the perch,though if an artisan had seen the pyramid lie would have thought the base of it hud been turned up. % the next time the train stopped, the old African presented himself at the cod of the platform much Tatter in ap pearance than when he made his exit. The last we saw of him he was railing at the top of Lis voice : ‘••last like a woman ! always wants to visit in bad weather! An’ now I’sgot to sue do white folks of this train in ue Federal Court for my damages and rights. lam going to do that very thing, if God spares me aud 1 ci.u get a lawyer.” A robber who was recently arrested for breaking into and cutering a- city store told the officer that it amused him to see folks put two or three strong locks on their front door and than fasten the back door with a small but In Advance. Stunning in Debt. I dwell on this point, for I would de ter others fioui entering into that place of* torment. Half the young men in this country, wiili many old enough to kilow better, would go into business —that is into debt—to-morrow, if they could. Most poor men are so ignorant as to en vy the merchant or manufacture*,whose life is an incessant struggle with pecu niary difficulties, who is driven to con stant “shinning,” and who, from month to month, barely evades the insolvency which sooner or later overtakes most men in business ; so that it lias been computed that but one man in twenty achieve a pecuniary success. For my own part I would rather be a ccn v ict in the State prison, a slave in a ri.ee swamp than to pass through life under the liar row of debt. Let no young man tnis ju’gc himself unfbitunatcly, or truly poor so long as lie lias use of his limbs and faculties, and is substantially free from debt. Hunger, cold, rags, hard work, contempt., are disagreeable, but debt is infinitely worse than them all. And if it had pleased God to spare ci ther or nil my sons to be the support of my declining years, the lesson which I should most earnestly seek to impress upon them is, “Never run in debt.” Avoid pecuniary obligation* you as would pestilence or famine. If you have but cents and can get no more for a week, buy a peek of corn, parch it, and live on it rather than owe a dollar ! Of course I know that some must do busi ness that involves a risk, *ud must give notes or other obligations, ar.u I do not consider him in debt , who can lay his hands directly on the means of paying, at some little sacrifice. all he owes; I speak of real debt—that which involves risk or sacrifice on one side, obligation and dependence on the ether —and I say from all such, let every youth humbly pray to God to preserve them cvxu more. — llor race (freely. Street Scenes iu Papeete Taliiti. There arc no such things as pavements, sidewalks or gutters, and everybody travels in the middle of the narrow streets. You pass along and step aside, now to avoid running into a crowd of Kanakas holding a confabulation, row to avoid stepping on an old native wo* man who is squatting in thc'Sireet,intent upon drying some t ffiaeco with a match prepar tury to having a smojte. Fur tiier on, at a corner, is a crowd of men and women hovering around the stump of a cigarette, which is successively smoked and tossed around on the grouud for iho next one to take up and have a whiff at. On one side of the street a Ci inaman, with nothing cy but a pair of big logged breeches, leans against a doorpost, gating into vacancy, ponder ing on the wise sayings of Conficuis of planning a five cent swindle, on the other side a dufky yud sits, on a rock playing a fragmentary noise on a cracked accoracon. Next door, is a Chiueio barber shop ; the customer on the front porch sits bolt!- upright on a stool with nothing to support him but his thin back, while the 1 nk-jawed ar tist plies the tort me. —O.n the- other end of the porch there arc two or three native women lounging, for John is popular with the native Idles, not be cause he is handsome,, but because he makes an exemplary husband; for rot only does he do his own aud thc-ir cook ing, but he washes for them, too, and leaves them, to cat, sleep and sm.okv in undisturbed indolence. The next is a a gscup of half-naked boy s tossing pen* nies at a cork set up with one or more coppers on it. This is a favorite amuse ment, not only with boys, but with the mustached Kauak >s. fu the Q.uai de Commerce the scene is somewhat rn.re bu.sinesu.dike, —Vessels are discharging and loading, natives with ban dear tgtc . re rushing here and there with, freight.
