Coast Politics.
SAN Francisco, October 31st.-With over
10000 men In line, parading before 100000
| spectators, with q manifestation OF enthusi-
asn that seemed boundless, the demonstra-
! ton of last evening was one OF the most re-
markable and note worthy displays Of the
| kind that the denizens of the Queen City Of
/ the Pacific ever witnessed. The parade it
| self was not only noteworthy on account of
! the number of persons who participated but
| for the character Of those who chose in that
| manner to manifest their regard for Repub-
! lican principles The procession itself was
shifting panorama, with patches of fame and
color so well disposed and so harmonious that
| the whole effect was pleasant and magnif-
cent. The marching was very much better
than is usual to demonstrations of civilians !;
the uniforms were neat and attractive, and
the music was exceptionally good, as
every frst-class band in the city, and
bands from adjacent towns, were pressed
into service. The frequent discharge of fire.
works also assisted in making it more at
tractive and varied to the eye, and the en-
thusiastic cheering of the paraders thrilled all
with enthusiasm, and inspired every true Re-
publican with confidence in the ultimate
result of the election 1t is needless to say
that the spectators were numberless for the
streets for hours were filed with a vast throne
of humanity, while elegantly -attired ladies
occupied the windows. Exactly at halfpast
s o'clock the order was given to march, and
the head of the column on Post street moved
northward up Kearny. At once a storm of
cheers burst forth from sidewalk, from win
dow, and from housetop. At the signal,
flaming rocket, with whiz and scream and
hiss, shot upward into the blue and burst
into q fiery shower of violet, red and
gold. A mimic bombardment began
between the houses on either side
of the way, and fountains of fame
and fiery rain poured in welcome from the
windows, giving the pageant its baptism
of fire. The vastness of the column may
be understood from the fact that, after
concentrating at the junction of Market
and Valencia streets, the head of the column
reached New Montgomery street, the point
Of review ard dismissal, while the rear divis-
ions were still debouching from Montgomery
into Market street. Two hours and a quar-
ter were consumed by the procession in pass
ing q given point In fact. the arrange
ments were of the most perfect kind, and
every one seemed to know his place and
duty. The continued fusilsde of fireworks
along the line was ur speakably magnificent.
! Inter5persed at intervals in the line were
volcanoes spouting unceasing fire aud flames,
aud the transparencies were of endless va
riety.
