DAILY COMMERCIAL.
BALTIMORE, MD.


From letter dated at Bombay, India, we
gather the following account of a State pro-
cession of a novel character:
early on the morning of the exhibition.
the roads leading to the grounds were com
pletely blocked up with elephants of all sizes.
For time, the unwieldly brutes seemed hud-
died and jumbled together in hopeless confu-
sion, and unavailing were the utmost efforts
Of the masters Of the ceremony to range
them in proper order. They We're soon how
ever relieved of their difficulty; for the chief
commissioner, having very opportunely ap-
peared, led off on his tall elephant, followed
by Brig. Gen. Shubrick and by the Magpore
Raah. The scene now became exciting and
tumultuous, and, according to the local chrOn-
icer, spirit of go-aheadism seemed suddenly
to have possessed the elephants. Restless
and almost intractable, they vigorously pushed
on in the wake of the chief commissioner.
The officers who held the bridge redoubled
their eXertions, and, at length, by their lusty
vociterations, and the Iorcible interposidon Of
their own elephants, compelled the whole herd
to marshal themselves in single file. The view
from the exhibition grounds of the long line
OF huge quadrupeds slowly, and as it were,
with measured tread. vending their way over
the bridge, and thrown in strong reIieg0 against
the morning sun, was particularly striking,
and transported the Imagination back to the
days of the Great Mogul when all the resources
OF the East were brought into requisitioI, in
order to minister to the imperial vanity
