At nine there wee e very beautiful display of fire
works, of which the following was the programme. :
Grand illumination by large Crystal Palace lights,
changing colour four Woes ; ascent of two large
halloos, with magnesium light an I fireworks; device,
the chequered cross; revolving silver fountain ; the
fall. of Niagara, producing • sound similar to rushing
water. Twenty feet long and f 'Sing thirty lest;
device, the grove of jewelled palm trees; the kaleido-
scope wheel.; dories, the turning sun; special device,
the yacht; Real, serial bouquet.
"Specially Go "Awfully Nice I " were the ver-
dicts of the crowd. The town was lighted up by the
magnesium light., as If another moon had rises; the
fiery cataract was a rushing mass of blazing sparks,
which poured from a great height over 90 feet in
breadth to the ground; the fiery phaanizes rushed
from opposite the King's Statue to the Esplanade and
back I the winning yacht. strop *ad to be Annaeona,
wee pictured—hull, ropes, seas, mains, and even the
water, in shimmering blase of silver-ooloured lighte,
and the last bouquet of rockets lighted up the !rout
and St. Mary-street with an upward rush of myriad
fireballs of all hues. The crowd warn immense, and the
weather fine ; the stare looked mere twinkling specks
above the terrestrial outbursts of sparks, and rushing
trains, and balls of fire.
