The hundred and first birthday of the United States v-~s variously ob served. TIho excursion train wvhich passed1 over the CJharlo tto, Columbia and Augusta Railroad on its way to Angusta, on the evening of the third, was patroniz.ed to a considora ble0 extent. The larger portion of the excursionists got on bolowv Co lumibia, and qnito a crowvd poured into the streets of Augusta in the still air of t~he morning of the Fourth. The weather was intensely warm, but the visitors mnanaged to put 'through the (lay successfully in seeing the sights. Summorville and the comotory were favori to resorts. During the day a match ga~mo of baso5 ball was played botwveen the "Carolinas" of Charleston, and the "Georgias" of Savannah,, thn former wvinhling by a score of 13 to 6. A fire engine was brought out for practice, and the nozzlemoeu amused themselves by turning the two streams against each other. The watery combat ha sted several mnin,. utes, two or three contestants being imocknd dnwn by Vh@ st.e.-t a. no boing Partially denuded of his hirt. .Tn such amusements was the lay spent. All hands were pipod n board at -eight o'clock that even-, ng,,and tho excursionists returned iome safely. No accidents are ro )O1'tOl. An oxcursion train for colored )eo)lo passed Winnsboro on is way to Columbia on the norning of tho Fourth. It was ammed, and at number of pleas ire-seekers were unable to secure )laces on the cars. This train ro urned on Thursday morning. The olored band from W.innsboro )oarded the train on Tuesday and vent up to Charlotte, then down to Jolumubia and back again, furnishing nusic for the occasion. 'Tle (lay was quietly observed in Winnsboro, only one or two places )f business were open, and the chief lesire of all appeared to be to keep rool. One man was heard to say 'Hang the Fourth," while another Vas apparent'ly inclined to felicitate iimnself on the fact that his ancestors yere tories. As a general thing. owever, the people were patriotic, o the extent at least of making a ioliduy of the day. Thus passed the Fourth. Too-Ia-loQ. All day long in Ciarleston on the Fourth the Battery and White Point Darden were thronged by colored ,elebrants, the number reaching several thousand. The chief amuse nont of the day was Too.-la-loo, a low song and dance of Ethiopic )rigin. The reporter of the Journal j' Commncrce found time in the ntervals betweon munching peanuts md chcwing taffoy to give the fol Iowing description of this torpsicho rean display. Ho says : This performance is a somewhat peculiar one, consisting of singing, lancing, walks around, and kissing. A dozen dusky damsels and their iwaius form a circle ; a leader is Ahosen, who sings the song, while the rest join .in the refrain, .keepiug time b)y clapping their hands. A miss tLheni gets into the centre of the birelo, and waltzes around while the thera sing as follows: Lady in do garden, Too la loo Lady in do garden, Too la loo ; Lady in do garden, Too la loo ; Oh I love, too la loo. Then the damsel performs a pas hiscul" while the others keep time Berry nice motion, Too la beo; Nice little lady motion, Too la lo; Oh ! dat's a nice little motion Too la loo ; Oh ! I love, too la loo. There is now a paus~e to give the miss a breathing spell. This ende~d, heo.song is resumed, the circle sing ng : Go choose you a lover, Too la lo; Nice little lover, Too Ia lo; Handsome lover, Too la lo; Oh ! I love, too la loo. Obeying this hint the lady waltzes round the circle, selects her swain, nud the twain resume the dance, ~he circle singing: Kiss your lover, Too la lo; Dat berry sweet lover, Too la lo; Kiss your lover, Too la laoo Oh ! I love,. too Ia boo. At this point the osculatory ,por.. Formnance takes p~lace, the lady -kisses her lover, blushes, and'rotiros to the uter circle, wyhile the "berry sweet [ovei" goes through the same dance lo ,Tlus refrain: ,Gentleman motion, Too la lo.; Berry nice motion, Too Ia Jooe; But he's -a bull-frog motion, Troo la boo , Oh I I love, too la loQ. Then the gentleman goes through ;he process described above, chooses is lover, waltzes with her, kisses ior and retires to leave the lady to -epoat the programme. This was mcasionally varied by tho following rerse by way of interlude and in >rder to give a breathing ispell to he performers: Aunt Betsy dead?1 Yes ma'm. E:owv long been deadi So long, Been to de funral ? .BtyYes ma'm. .Aunt.ev Ana nd1gona To say tlat the day -was :thor oughly enjoyed by the colored peo plo, would be to give a very faint idea of the zest into which they on tered into the sports. There were no disturbances to -mar the festivi ties, and the police had very -little work :to do. Building and Loan Association.
