Boston, June l7.-Few of the three
hundred thousand inhabitants of Bos-
ton, or Of the one hundred thousand
strangers who We're quartered on the
city last night, needed the clangor of
the church bells or the thunder OF the
salutes of the cannon to arouse them.
At sun rise to-day the whole town was
astir, and the whistles of the locGmo-
tives that brought heavily laden trains
in from the suberbs had already begun
to resound across the causeways on the
north and south OF the city. All the
freight business on all the railroads
that enter the city is suspended to-day,
and their passenger-carrying capacity
is taxed to the utmost. As early as 8
O'clock some of the troops began to as

raration for the great review of the
entire. body of active Massachusetts
militia by Governor CASTOR, and the
sidewalks, and even carriage ways, in
all that neighborhood, We're densely
thrOnged. Ihe decorations of the
Common and all the surrounding
streets are wonderfully effective
no Puritanical neutral tints OF
color. Balconies, flagstaiis, arches and
pavilious, and even the trees, are all
rcsplendent withgay and brilliant red,
white and blue. After an early break
fast have walked over the latter part
of the route which the procession will
follow before it reaches Bunker Hill.
The decorations of Washington street
extension from Cornhill on toward
Charles river bridge is as effective rs
hat around the Common. The ell
trance of the bridge is spanned with n
blue arch, and appropriate inscriptions
appear there and at various places
throughout Charleston, informing
strangers of localities in their relation
TO events of the battle. But | notice
comparatively few sentimental mot
toes. The arch is inscribed, "Charles
River-Brltish ships-of-war lay in this
river, and cannonaded Charleston at
at Muulton's Point.n There is an in
scription pointing out the landing
place of the British troops, and giving
the hour of their disemharkment, the
-redoubt on I5reed's Hill where the
monument stands, the line of rail
fence sloping to the Mystic and the
