The Japanese have fireworks made expressly
to be let of by daylight. The following descrir-,
tion of them is taken from, an account OF receRt
festival in the Yokohama Herald: 1.-THE aecondl
day was occupied with exhibitions OF the in
genious daylight fireworks, Of, the manufacture
Of which the Japanese appear to be the eols|1
masters. As usual, these consisted mostly OF:
bombs, which, exploding high in the air.;
discharged sometimes various colored jetssi
OF smoke, and sometimes closely foldeai
packages Of wire and paper, which unfoldea
themselves into parachutes Of great bulk and
symmetrical design. They were sometimes fish,
which swarn leisurely through the atmospheric !
to the ground or snakes, which writhed thenu- /,
selves away over the tree-topa or great birds,
which hover Hte-like and notionless, for an in.
credibly long time. Occasionally they took ths |
shape Of cottages, temp1es, human beings, mig.
nifcd creats Of Daln1ios, trees, aud Aowers,--:
almost any thing which . lively Imagination
could suggest. The smoke-fgures, however,
we're the most amusing. One Of the most frs:
quentiy attempted WAS q cuttle-hsh, with BODY
Of thick. fuiginous black, and arms6of Ightar
huea- OF course the Illusion WAS very brief, tha
wind not allowing the smoke to remain untlial
turbed for more THIN feT seconds but n 49,
it lasted it Was perfect.
