Boston, July 0,1ÎWJ3.
To the Editor of the Prett :
The duiiigs and result of your late State
Convention give great satisfaction to all par
tics iu tills city and throughout tUc State,ami
elicit justly merited praise ou every liand. it
Li hailed as the beginning of the end; for
wheu every Northern State becomes so unani
mous—union upou national affairs will nat
urally follow that ol Slate—the end of rebel
lion is swift and eertaii.. Would that each
State was as prompt to follow iu every good
work as Maine U to lead. Massachusetts
Would do well to meet iu convention upon the
same basis, and the minority would work iu
perfect harmony with the majority not only to
notuiuate but to elect the man best suited to
the limes and people regardless ol his politi
cal complexion. As a change will doubt
less take place in the occupancy of the guber
natorial chair at the coming election, the
present incumbent having served faithfully
aud acceptably two terms, a favorable oppor
tunity is presented for the Republican State
Committee to display their patriotism and
magnanimity. But all this en passant.
The receptiou of the Mass.4jth occurred on
Tuesday last aud was a fine affair, because of
the frequeucy of such occurreuces drawing
less of a crowil than usual, but more select
and enjoyable. Their escort was very impos
ing aud the legimeul looked well and bore it
Bcif with the air of a vetvrau corps, acquired
by nine months' service aud strict discipline. :
The scene upon the Common was heightened
by a large number of beauliful while tents
which had been erected by the Cadets, impart
ing to the area a more military appearance.
After suitable ceremonies the regiment en
joyed the collation spread for them, aud after
wards took up the line of march for their
camp, to be mustered out of service. The
regiment lost abu*it oue hundred men by bat
tle aud sickueas during its service. The 43d
regimeut is expected this week.
The reckless and downward coerse of a
youth but seventeen vears nf wσο v>· «
ed last week by the discovery of au embezzle
ment amounting to upwards of (UUUU, to
which was added the crime of forgery. He
was a clerk on one of the wharves, and one in
whom the utmost coutldcuce was placed, and
that Iro without a previous knowledge of his
character, his employer haviug engaged him
without making the usual inquiries. He was
living at the rale of $IM a day, obtaining the
money by retaining a part of daily de|>osils
with which he was seut to the bank and alter
ing the bank-book entries to avoid detectiou.
He was left alone iu charge of the business
during his employer'* absence, and one day
presented a check to which he had forged the
signature of his employer for several thousand
dollars to a neighboring firm lor payment, and
it would have been paid had they the money.
This passed without investigation, and be was
not molested until lie presented a forged check
for some #10,000 at the Eagle Bank, which on
account of the large amount was held for in
quiries resulting iu his arrest. A large amount
of forged paper was found among his papers.
And all this iu the short space of three mouths !
He was committed for trial.
The receipts from customs at this port «till
make ljostou the second port of culry in the
United States, being exceeded only by New
"York. The total receipts for the year 1802
were but a little less than urtrit inilUona of
dollar». For the tirst half of the present year
Die receipts foot up a little less than three
millions of dollars, viz. : Î2.W4.071.74. Λ large
number of Boston ships have been sold abroad
' the past year on account of extra risks from
rebel pirates, which explains, in a great degree,
the diminution of receipts as compared with
the saine period last year. A new regulation
has just been established at this port iu regard
to the arrival and sailing of vessels. All ves
eels arriving must report to the revenue cut
ter or guardship before proceeding to anchor
age, and transient vessels, that is, those not
engaged on regular lines, are not allowed to
leave port betweeu sunset and »uurise.
The passage of the 23d Maine regiment
through this city on their return home attrac
ted much attention on account of the excel
lent marching and soldierly bearing of the
men. They marched to the music of the
bugle, which added a truly 'martial characU r
to the parade and elicited the plaudits of the
crowds which tiu»d their way. They were re
freshed by a collation at the Beach street l»ar
racks, and then went on their way reloiciug.
(fin tlio .1er· ι «*-! «
., tue}· were loiioweu
by the 25th and 27th regiments so close upon
each other that one had to stack arms in the
ι street and wait till the other had finished
their collation in Beach street, when they
were «erred with replenished tables. They
betli looked finely, especially the 25th. Their
eagerness to be once more on their way home,
now so near, caused them to be so impolite as
to *eat and run," else I should have seen more
of them and would have had inorq to say. I
know their reception at home was worthy of
them.
The celebration of the ever glorious
Fourth passed off with great eclat. The day
opened warm and promised to be hot, but la
ter ihe sky was overcast with beneficent
clouds, an east wind blew—for the nonce a
zephyr, Ui speak BUternke—in fact the weath
er was in every respect worthy of the day and
the occasion. Owing to the excellent ar
rangements of the police, who appeared lor
the first time equipped in the Philadelphia
and Baltimore style—each with a handsome
club with leathern lenot, suspended at bis left
tide to a neat leathern belt, the day was ush
ered in with less noise than usual, a blessing
fully appreciated by the citizen», and more es
pecially by the sick. They continued their
vigilance throughout the day, thereby preven
ting many an accident and making the day
one of the most enjoyable we have had for
many years. The city was full of strangers,
but a more orderly crowd than was ou the
Common daring the morning and evening I
ι never sa" ■ nunc in uns cuy on a similar oc
I rasion. Tile morning concert by 100 musi
i cians passed oil well. Tile city processior
was escorted by tlic Tremont Zouaves, a bat
talion composed of, and commanded by
youths, and they looked finely and bore tliein
selves like veterans. A Une ilag was presen
ted tliein by the ladies of Dos ton, throu^l
one ol their number In a neat speech, just be
fore the procession formed. The lioston wa:
crammed full to listen to the oration by Prof
Holmes, and to the other exercises. Th<
singing was by 350 children, dressed in white
from the public schools, who were arranged
on asceudiug seats on the immense stage, pre
sentlng a lovely sight, which together with
the decorations and vast audience made one ol
the most l>eautiful and enchanting scenes evei
witnessed. Hut 1 cannot speak at length o!
each exercise. «The oration was of a high aud
patriotic order, and was delivered with a
spirit aud unction peculiar to the orator, the
audience manifesting their interest by frequent
applause and close attention to the end. The
Mayor then read the message of the Presi
dent, announcing the success of our army,
when the audience at or.ee burst forth in rap
turous aud long continued applause, a most
fitting conclusion to such an occasion, and it
is a source of great satisfaction that the day
did not pass wholly devoid of something to
enliven the gloom felt in consequence of na
tional suffering—felt more than ever on the
anniversary of the nation's birthday. Happily
the news increase in importance aud we may
have to thank (!od that our next anniversary
will l>e entirely free from the blight of war.
The regatta passed off beautifully and good
time was made. I cannot give the result ol
each race lor the want of space. Uammill ol
Pittsburg took two prizes, Webber of your
city did well but came just short ôf a prize,
and the '"Monitor," also from Portland, was
withdrawn, for some reason, before the race.
The prizes were awarded by Hon. Edward
Everett, who hapi>ened to be on the judges'
boat at the close of the racee ; his remarks
made the occasion of unusual interest. The
balloons ascended successfully aud had a high
old time. The festivities of the day came to
a close with a brilliant display of Arc-works,
witnessed by at least 25,000 persons, and per
haps double that number. The clcctric lights
upon the cupola of the State House, and upon
a tower at Frog Pond on the Common, were
the feature of the evening, the former throw
ing its light in any desired direction, lighting
the whole Common as if by noon-day sun with
magical effect, and also the entire pit ν nml vi
cinity, and the latWr transforming the Ibun
tain in the I'onil into lire, or imparting to it
the hues of the raiubow, wiih enchanting
power. At the conclusion of the (Ire-work?—
about ten o'clock—the people quietly dis
persed amid the light thrown over all from the
.State House thereby preventing collision ami
disorder, and each sought his own home or
lodgings after all thankful that the Fourth of
July coines but once a year. AbLTROTON.

Tyrant Flycatcher, (Kingbird.)
The lorui, size, plumage and habits of this
bird are probably as well known as those of
any of the migratory kind. This is partly
owiag to the habite of the bird itself, from its
apparaut dislike to everything like conceal
ment.
For many consecutive years a pair have had
their nests iu an appletree in the writer's gar
den, where free from annoyance they have
reared their youug. On the (ill· of the present
month two birds, one a Kingbird the other
clearly its mate from their movement·, but
wholly uulike in plumage, made their appear
ance, and are now busily engaged in making
a nest upon auotlier tree in the garden. There
is nothing peculiar in the appearance of the
male of this pair, but the female is attracting
soine attention by appearing iu a dress of
icltite throughout. When it rests a few faint
specks ot a dull brown are seen upon iu back,
but olherw i >e its entire drewi is white, and it is
spoken of, by those who ha\e seen It as "a
white Kingbird," a· it really is. It is seen
daily by many persons, and those with whom
the writer has s|ioken state l'iat this is the
only instance of the kind coming under theii
observation.
That this bird destroys the ιeorkitiy honey
bee ia not confirmed by the w riter's observa
tions continued with care lor some years, and
he questions the accnracy of the statement. It
may and doubtless docs occasionally feed upon
the ttronf*. but I have repeatedly seen, even
the Kingbird driveu in precipitate rout before
the determined attack of so diminutive a foe
as a single armed liée.
Of the almost innumerable onslaughts w hich
I have seen this bird make upon the larger
kinds of birds, one feeling invariably seemed
to possess his foeman, ana that was oue of in
security and helplessness until lar beyond the
line where this vigilant and fearless sentinel is
doing picket duty. What a Monitor is upon
the ,ocean, the tyrant flycatcher is among the
birds, and a long and familiar acquaintance
with hiin prompts an acknowledgment of his
chivalrous bearing to his kind, and q[ his
innoxious habits, to the merceuary views of
■nan.
