American citizens are making unusual preparations for celebrating the coming "4th" Nearly $2,000 has been subscribed to defray expenses. The Rev. Dr. Gulick has been invited to deliver the oration. Tables will be provided for 400 guests. The committee of arrangements, we understand, will extend a general invitation to all foreign residents to participate in the festivities of the occasion.
