APPEARANCE OF THE CITY.

Broadway during the day had on its gala dress, and
from every housetop flags and streamers, covered with
appropriate devices foated in the breeze. Below the
street wss lined with people Of all sexes ages and
dtons, anxious to the procession 1t aled past
and crowdng and showing to get nearer view Of the
gaily dressed paiades. The was most envening
for during the day constant stream of soldiers or
handsomely dressed associations, adorned with rich
uniforms and regalias, kept marching and counter
marching UP and down the street. while from every
quarter came strains Of spirit stirring music.
must be confessed however, that some of the music
might have well been dispensed WITH The demand
for bands was so great that every thing in the shape Of
musical instrument was pressed into service Instru
ments Of most questionable and antiquated shape
made their appearance for the first time in public dis
coursing strains the mort lugubrous. Come OF the
horns shrieked dsmaly, while the flutes and other wind
Instruments were sadly out Of tune But, st there
enough of excellent music out to make ample amends
for all these shortcomings The excitement and in.
teret Of the spectators continued throughout the day.
and not until late hour in the evening the streets
cleared Of the curious, patriotic and pleasure loving
multitude
The national standard aoatcd iron, every hotel thea
tire and public institution in the city, and MANY of the
ships 10 the harbor galy adorned with aazs and
stresmeTs OF every description. The streets were for
New York, tolerably clean they would have been
sidered extremely dirty in any other locality, but
citizens have got used to that kind OF thing, and
thankful for the smallest svors in the way OF clean,
or even moderately dirty streets,
The day delshtful--the air balmy spring
like, and the sky without cloud to obscure the
glorious sunlight, II fell upon the waving banners and
dancing psnnons OF the richly adorned procession it
swept through the streets.
