The Republican procession ofto-night
| IS by far the grandest, most brilliant
and enthusiastic procession of any that
has ken place here in the present po-
litical campaign, Not less than fifteen
! Thousand men on foot bearing torches,
/ i've hundred horsemen, and one hum
ldred and d fly vehicles took part In the
/ parade; and oleWer than one hum
dred thousand Witnesses crowded the
busy streets, all ablaze with the IRE of
cannon, rockets and the swinging
torches, giving aid to the marching
hosts in round cheers for the cause that
they SO fifty represented. Cincinnati
| has not been SO awakened before to the
i vast duties that rest upon a great city
| like this as 1t has been within the last
two or three days, when preparations
were being made for the great demon
| stration of tonight. Men have been
''up and doing" day and night to ses
cure display that would be creditable
| to themselves, to the city, and to the
cause; and this even is but foreshad-
| owing of the grandeur and extent of
the display that will be made next Sat-
| urdRy, when we expect delegations
from neighboring cities and towns and
| a full turn out of our own people, such
as has not been seen in this or any other
campaign.
The procession tonight was fully
uniformed and most of the capes worn
by the men were stamped with the

In the land, the seal of the greatest po-
ltttcal party our country ever saw. The
music was abundant and excellent.
Every bras57a and martial band in the
neighborhood was called into requisI-
ton, and seemed to give more than or
binary life TO the music they were dis
Icoursing. There were, perhaps fifty
bands in line. The transparences were
countless, and no pains were spared
and their notices were pointed and
we'll selected. Following are few of
them: democrats have no hopes and
will suffer no disappointments,"

strength of the Republicans, and en-

crisis. We have not heard of a single /
accident occurring to any one, in or out
of the ranks, and have reason to be-
lieve that no disturbance to either party
will be given in the future, after the adj
monition given by the public press
here. We sincerely hope SO, at least.
