grand display of fireworks, last evening, was
witnessed by thousands of admiring spectators
on the spot and throughout the city The
pieces were prepared by Major Mordeica,
commanding the Washington Arsenal, for the
occasion, and were displayed in front of the
Presidents house, on Monument Square, and
approved by the President as an appropriate
closing tribute TO the day, he being present
witnessing the brilliant scene. Mr.. Thos.
Brown was the accomplished pyrotechnist of
the evening, under the general direction of
Mr. VIM Ashdown, master armor and ma
chinists OF the Washington Arsenal The
closing piece was brilliant representation of

sun, and displaying the immortal words
