The anniversary of good old Independence Day is again at hand. Although our citizens have not made any general arrangements to celebrate, we trust there will be a national salute fired, and that the fire bolls, church bells and all other large bells in the city will bo rung at daylight, to remind the people that tho great national holiday has arrived. Of course there will be the usual destruction of lire works on the part of the children, both great and small. The Order of United American Mechanics have completed the arrangements for their psirado and pic nic, and will bo out in largo numbers. The members of tho Order will form in lino on Market street, at 10 o'clock, and with a bund of music, proceed over the following route: Down Market to Front down Front to Paxton; up Paxton to Second up Second to Chestnut: up Chestnut toThirdjup Third to Walnut; down Walnut to Second up Second to Pine; down Pino to Front; up jb ront to State up State to Third up Third to Broad; up Broad to Pennsylvania Avenue; down Pennsylvania Avenue to North; then take the cars for the pic nic at Hodman's woods.

No tickets have been issued for this pic nic, and no persons outside of tho Order will be allowed to be on the ground. The Firemen's and Citizens' Pic nic, to bo held in Cameron's woods, for the benefit of the Paxton Fire Company, will bo the only public observance of the day, where all who desire to attend can do so. The Big Sixes have been untiring in their efforts to make this pic nic the most extensive and attractive ever held by the Harrisburg firemeu, and we have no doubt they will bo very liberally patronized. Hundreds of our eiti.ens will de Biro Homo kind of recreation, und they will embrace this opportunity afforded tlieni to vmit Cameron's woods and spend the day pleasantly. Cars will loavo tho Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Depot at 8.20 A.

And Directors of the Harrisburg Bridge (Tnmnanv and obtain from them a reply to the resolution adopted at the public meeting in the Court House relative to their resigning the use of the site of the old Harrisburg bridge, for the erection of a new free bridge lhfrpon." Wo have been thus particular in furnishing you with the above resolutions because tney ucline our duty. We shall be pleased to hear fom you soon, and inasmuch as we will be called on to re port to the meeting of citizens, whose servant we are, to avoid any misunderstanding, it is desirable your reply should be in writing.

Yours respectfully, Hamilton Alricks, D. W. Gross, 4c. June 5. 18fiC.

The committee appointed by the Directors of the Bridge Company returned this elaborate answer Messrs. Hamilton. Alricks and D. W. Gross Gentlemen The Board of Directors of the Harrisburz Bridge Company, to whom was communicated vour letter, in which, in pursuance of resolutions of a public meeting i tt i i.

oAik nrn convened in xrarnauurg uu tu ovtu ui last, vou "endeavor to obtain from the Presi dent and Directors of the Harrisburg Bridge Company the present sue ot tne oiu xiarris burg bridge for the purpose of erecting a free I tmJ', thereon, have instructed us to make 1 ThTdirtor r.J p.thh. with the 1 Dinar, niirl in. laudable object you have i in the uiTiuuma ui icunievi vv vv wv ti same liberal and broad spirit which charac terizes yourselves and the generous citizens of Harrisburg, who, by large'contri butions and sacrifices, seek to obtain, for the community the vast advantages of a free communication between the eastern and western shores of the Susquehanna river. This bridge operates as a tax, at the gates of the city, upon most of the necessaries of life there consumed and to the people of the western shore as a custom house tor all merchandise there purchased. The loss to the whole community, east and west of the river, is not to bo measured by the amount of tolls collected, for this tax acts as a shackle upon trade and commerce, and an impediment to the free development and progress of the city and neighborhood.

Wo conceive that an entirely free interchange between the artisans and merchants of Harrisburg and the farmers of Cumberland and York counties would conduce to the prosperity of both, in a degree difficult to overestimate. In a central city, soon to become of great industrial and manufacturing it is of the utmost consequence that all the avenues of approach should be open and free as possible. And, in this connection, it may be that the interests of all would bo consulted by facilitating the overflow of a portion of our growing population to the cheaper shores of Cumberland from tho long and narrow strip of ground which now forms tho sito of the city. As we are all equally convinced of tho benefits to be derived by the community from the conversion of tho present toll bridge into one free, there are some suggestions to which it would bo well to give early consideration. 1st.

Tho directors have no power to make, accept or decline, a proposition touching the stock, property and franchises of the company; and preliminary legislation would be necessary to authorize a sale and transfer. 2d. The Harrisburg bridge company, while cniovintr some privileges, are also under ob ligations to tho public and they would be false to their duty should they yield the re rniiininor half of the bridcre. all their niers. their abutments and their franchises, without having first secured sufficient guarantees that the burnt halt will be rebuilt, that any future loss of whole or part would be repaired, and that the bridge would be kept up for all time in nerfect order, and free of toll.

As this is the only communication which the Harrisburg Bridge Company have ever addressed to the public, it may be proper to disabuse the minds of the community of some prevalent misconceptions, by a bnet statement based upon the sworn renorts of the Secretary and Treasurer ho stock was subscribed, and tho erection of tho bridge begun, in the vear 1812. Until 1821 no dividend was declared; the tolls, in auuiuon to tne hiock subscribed at $20 per share, having been applied to debts incurred in the construction. In 1840 one half of the bridge was swept away by the Hood, and no dividend was declared until 1851 the tolls meanwhile, together with proceeds of stock sold, according to act of Legislature at a loss of fifty cents on the dollar (the par value having been and remaining, $20 per share) being applied to the liquidation of debts in curred. For these, and reasons connected with tho large annual expense of repairs, the dividends from the year 1812 to the year 18C0 have averaged only about four and one half (4 J) per cent, per annum. Yet, according to tho charter, they must average fifteen (15) per cent, tor thirty years before the company may bo dispossessed of their privileges.

The stockholders have, therefore, always looked forward to a period, when increasing population and trade might partially reimburse them in increased dividends, for their precarious investments in a property subject to so many vicissitudes of firo, water, ice and wind. Ihat time seems to bo approaching. Nevertheless, the board, desirous of acting in concert with you to tho end that there may erected and maintained at this place a bridge, free of toll forever, would recommend to the stockholders tho acceptance of a moderate valuation ot the property and franchises ot the company. Iberefore, they respectfully request you or the citizens whom you represent, to lay before them some definite proposition relative to the accomplishment of the object. Bv such a transfer, as that suggested, the stockholders may, indeed, subiect themselves to heavy pecuniary loss, but they would contribute to the accomplishment of a great and general public good.

We are, gentlemen, very respectfully yours, R. J. llAI.DKMAM, John II. Biucuh, R. A.

Lamukrtox. llAIMUKliullu. Jun IK lMi A tho committtio representing tho bridge oompany assume that tho dividends of their i "u'iv uicrngH niicen per cent. for thirty years? before they can bo dis possessed ot weir privileges," it is proper to turn your attention to the act of Assembly incorporating the bridge company, to ascertain whether it will not admit of a more liberal construction. Preliminary thereto, if wo explore the intontion of the law makers, we find by reference to our annual appropriation bills, that a vast amount year to year, to aid in the erection of free bridges, and the construction of public roads throughout tne common wcaim.

j.ujjumy of the State has been to make all carriageways free, because it is the true mode of advancing tne interest oi tne puonu. jjjt reference to the act of 3d April, 1809, incorporating the Harrisburg Bridge Company, it i lA.nL.T i 1 Will De discovered mat tne uegisiamre, wiieu they passed the act, confidently expected that link in the chain of our public high ways would long before this have been declared free. (9 Bioren Laws, 152d 5 Smith's Laws, 57th p. and 283d p. No doubt the sale of State stock in the bridge, and the flood of 184G retarded that desirable end.

But a tree oriage at una pro is but a question of time. ine act oi iouw is nut uw or else the company would hardly have construed it so strongly in their favor. The ninth section requires the onage to De constructed within fifteen years after the passage of the law, and to be built ot wood, iron or other material. It is the tenth section with which we have to do; it enacts that when a good and complete bridge has been erected, the property shall vest in "the company and their successors," during "and to the end of thirty years," to commence from the time when the bridge was completed. We find, also another provision which will aid in putting a construction on the law.

It is, that waen tne tons snail exceed nieen per cent, net annual profit, the excess shall compose a fund for the redemption of the bridge "so as to render it free," "save that there shall always be a small toll, or other revenue, for keeping it in repair." This excess "to be converted into bridge stock or invested in some other productive funds," and the ac cruing product was also to be added to tnis fund, and all "private donations for freeing said bridge" were be invested in like mon ner, and if this fund was sufficient to free the bridge, at a period less than thirty years, says the law, "it shall be redeemed and become free at a period less tlian thirty years. We also nnd, in tne same section, this caretul provisions, tnat "ii tne said iuna shall be adequate to the purpose last mentioned," or in other words, if the public shall the money to pay the fair value of the bridge, the Legislature may at any time, after "the expira tion of the saia term oj imriy years, declare it a free bridge (providing at the same time, the means of keeping it in re nair. and the comnonv shall be obliged to take such sum of money therefor as shall be allowed on a fair appraisement oy aisinter ested versons." The Legislature failed to designate the mode in which the appraisers should be appointed, but it would appear reasonable that the citizens making donations, or the public authorities undertaking the erection of a free bridge, might name an appraiser, and the bridee company name an appraiser, and if the contracting parties could not agree on the umpire, the two appraisers thusnomi nated could name a third person, and those three appraisers, after being, duly qualinea, could assess the present value of the bridge, although it is not the old bridge, but an en tirely new bridge the public necessities seem to demand. In consideration of the western Dortion of the bruise being old and much worn, and as it Is probable all the piers would have to be re built from the foundation, we would not estimate the property ot the company at more than twenty hve thousand dol i nances. But your Executive Committep believe that when a free bridge is built it should bo fire proof as far as practicable.

It is estimated a wire bridge would cost about one hundred and seventy five thousand dollars. We do not think sufficient money could now be se cured to erect a free fire proof bridge without appropriations from the counties of Dauphin and Cumberland: and the commissioners of Dauphin county have informally declined en tertaining a "proposition on the subject; and, under those circumstances, we could not with a good grace call on the commissioners of Tt la 4 fliA ki acii rn nra to say that they were disposed to favor the to give validity their conditional appropriation. Undel an Public op.nion, 4hority of and with the full force of the auJ'V" law, tne commissioners wouio, no uouot, itsc. constrained to make a liberal grant. The late fire was at a most unpropitious time so far as substantial aid should be asked from the city of Harrisburg.

In this connection it is proper to state that the citizens of Dauphin county contributed the handsome sum of more than one million of dollars to pay bounties to volunteers for anything we know xork and Uumberiana counties may have been bled to the same extent. For these, and tho reasons hereafter mentioned, we have not solicited donations, although we have every assurance that a large portion of the fund which would be required to build a lrco nre proot bridge could ue oo tained by subscription. Harrisburg is a growing town, and we ex pect but a few years will transpire before she will double her population and her wealth, and then her position will secure her due weight in the disposition of the finances ot this county. In fact, if the natural advan tages ot our location are improved, iiarns burg is destined to become one of the great manuiacturing and commercial inianu ciucs of the Union. The plot of ground on which the city proper is built, lying between tne canal and the river, averaging nearly a mile in width, and between the Pennsylvania railroad bridge and the mouth of Paxton creek, more than six miles in length, is capable of accommodating a population of a quarter of a million ot people without their being over densely crowded, We have the river shore below town, the liiirh tnhln land to our east of immense rro portions, and around us we have an endless number of the choicest sites for manufacturing Iiurposes, and the public cannot afford much oneer to be locked out by a toll bridge from tho fertile Cumberland Valley and cheap building lots, and the great trade west of the Susnuehanna.

We will now direct your attention to the renlv which the committee, authorized to speak for the Harrisburg Bridge Company, made to the resolutions passed at your late meeting, and tfaus bring our duties to a close, Thev sav. as vou have heard read, "the di rectors have no power to make, accept or de cline a nrovosition touching the siock, pro perty and franchises of the company, and preliminary legislation would be necesary to authorize a sale and transfer." Under those circumstances negotiations might be con sidered useless. Perhaps the directors are right in the posi tion assumed in their answer, yet we are all familiar with a case in which the directors of another cornoration in our city, having a larte eanital. after a meeting of the share holders, sold out botlthe real and personal nronertv of the shareholders, and the fran cbiscs of the corporation, in the face of the remonstrance ol some ot the sharehoiuers; and the purchasers are now in possession and are runninj; the machine. As it is ac knowledged, however, that there are matters of great moment connected with the proper oiiriuu.atioii ot the movement in lavor oi a lree bnuire.

which renders legislation lnuis nensable. vour committee ask to be dis charged from the further consideration of the subject. Hamilton Ai.ricks, no. VV. Cowdkn, I).

Much sickness, undoubtedly, with children and adults, attributed to other causes, is occasioned by worms. The "Vermifuge Comfits," although ef fectual in destroying worms, can do no possiblo in iurv to the most delicate child.

This valuable combination has been successfully used by physi cians, and found to bo safe and sure in eradicating worms, so hurtful to children. Children having worms require immediate atten tion, as neglect of tho trouble often causes prolonged sickness. Symptoms of worms in children are often over looked. Worms in the stomach and bowels cause irritation, which can be removed only by the use of a sure remedy. The combination tor ingredients usod in making Brown's Vermifuge Comfits is such as to cive the best possible effect with CURTIS A BROWN, Proprietors, New York.

No jar can interfere with the harmony of its working and no sudden shock can damage its machinery. Every piece is made and finished by machinery (itself famous for its novelty, as well as for its effectiveness) and is, threfore, properly made. The watch is what all mechanism should be ACCURATE, SIMPLE, STRONG AND ECONOMICAL. Except some high grades, too costly for general use, foreign watches are chiefly made by women and boys. Such watches are composed of several hundred pieces, screwed and riveted together, and require constant repairs to keep them in any kind of order.

All persons who have carried "ancres," "le pines" and "English Patent Levers," are perfectly well aware of the truth of this statement. At the beginning of our enterprise, more than ten years ago, it was our first object to make a thoroughly good low priced watch for the million, to take the place of these foreign impositions the refuse of foreign factories which were entirely unsaleable at home and perfectly worthless everywhere. How well we have accomplished this may be understood from the fact, that after so many years of pubho trial, we now make MORE THAN HALF OF ALL THE WATCHES SOLD IN THE UNITED STATES, and that no others have ever gives suoh universal satisfaction. While this department of oar business is continued with increased facilities for perfect work, we are at present engaged in the manufacture of watches of the very HIGHEST GRADE KNOWN TO CHRONOME TRY, unequalled Jy anything hitherto made by ourselves, and unsurpassed by anything made in the world. For this purpose we have the amplest facilities.

We have erected an addition to our main buildings expressly for this branch of our business, and have fillod.it with the best workmen in our service. New machines and appliances have been constructed, which perform their work with consummate delicacy and exactness. The choicest and most approved materials only are used, and we challenge comparison between this grade of our work and the finest imported chronometers. We do not pretend to sell our watches for lett money than foreign watches, but we do assort, without fear of contradiction, that for the same money our product is incomparably superior. All our watches.

of whatever grade, are fully warranted and his warrantee is good at all times against us or our agents in all parts of the world. CAUTION. Tho public are cautioned to buy only of respectable dealers. All persons selling counterfeits will be proseouted. JtOBBINS APPLETON.
