But tho want of unanimity concerning the holiday was apparent. The banks, most of tho Government offices, and a few private offices were closod, whilst tho commercial community, in tho abscnco of any local holiday fixture, stuck to the routine of business. Evidently trade was not so brisk as usual, and storekeepers wore heard lamenting the loss of sucli a glorious day. CELEBRATIONS ELSEWHERE.
