the vast crowds on the sidewalks and the moving
mass IN the procession in strange but gorgeous hght
and fantastic shapes.
The numbers in the torchlight procession reached
fully %. 600 men, The head had turned into Broad
way before had leftIts position ofrendezvous
at Fourteenth-st. and Thrd-ave. No mounted men
were permitted in the line Tor fear that the horses
would be frightened by the unusual display and
only few hacks dragged along the wagons bearing
supplies of fireworks used during the march. The
composition of the procession was certainly neon
gruous and cosmopolitan. German singing
bands followed the American militia; German
Schiitzcn corps and Irish temperance societies
We're in adjacent divisions; trades unions, civic
associations and secret societies moved in one body;
the Ancient Order of HibeInians and the Posts OF
the Army of the Republic were in close company,
while Spanish, Swiss, French, and Italian associa-
tions were combined in the same division. The hour
was not favorable to a display Of banners, but the
glare of the tOrchghts and the light OF the hres
and fireworks Int up those carried so that thelr
legends were clearly discemible. The entire march
was past enthusiastic crowds, whose general ENJOY
ment extended to those in the parade, so that VI
passing points elaboratey illuminated or decorated
the long-continuod oft-repeated shouts and cheers
were almost deafening.
The most interesting feature OF the ceieDra
ton was witnessed after midnight in unlon-square
As the procession reached this point each division
was massed in the park inclosure its bands being
grouped in the part of the plaza fronting ON Seven
teenth-st and facing a large platform erected for
the German singing societies which were to sing the
hymns selected for the occasion. The result was
that the entire nine divisions were grouped III the
park, and the bands combined in one grand
orchestra of not less than 400 brass instruments,
with n chorus of 600 voices. Around the entire
square the crowd OF spectators lined the sidewalks,
kept in place and in peace by platoons Of poice,who
had early guarded the square from intrudeIs. AZ
each corner of the square the pyrotcchniss were at
work, and between the airs, which were played ana
sung discharged their batteries of rockets amid the
huzzas of the great crowds around and within the
park. At the hour OF midnight the ringing
of bells in almost every church Of the city was heard
above the din of rockets and the music OF the bands
and chorus, and moment later the deep rover
berations OF the artillery in the forts of the bay and
in various parts Of the city added to the sounds with
which the new era was Ushcred III.

midnight ceremonies at Union-square were OF
