To-day is the lhiFiy-ihird ami
,ersary Of The entrance of tht
Pioneers into this valley, and the day
Eil be celebrated as it has never
bgen celebrated before. Sufficient
bs. been seen from time to time tC
Indicate the progress made, and &c
sbow the magnitude Of the under
taking; hat few ever had any idea
that Il would assume such magnlf-
csut proportions, be 20 complete, or
rPpresent such a diversity OF pursuits
and industries. Thousands and
thousands OF dollars have been eX-
pended by the participants, and no
donations have been asked from any
ouarter. 60 that if it had been a
failure each individual or association
OF individuals could have attributed
the failure to DO one tut themselves;
and in view OF It's unguestloned sue
cess, they carry off the h0nOrs. This
is not said ID detract from the credit
due the indIlstigable workers Of The
general committee, who have spared
neither time nor l2O0r IN the general
.upe!gisIyn and IN the direction OF
lie ciand affair, ard t. whose unur-
ing efforts It's success Is vastly cue.
Below we give a iist of the several
departments Of the procession, which
details The striking features of each.
In view Of It's being gotten up
before the pr0cs ssion, though
neither pans ncr labor have been
spared t. make il as full and reliable
rs eau be, It IS possible that thsre
may be sou Inaccuracies IN il, aud
s0me may ave been omitted, or not
received the pace 10 which their
eh1rls are enut.ed. All this, how
ever. can and will be remedied; and
the following description has the
merit OF being more complete, and
more reliable, while 1t Is out with the
procession, than could have been OF
tanned by a passing review of the
grest pageant as it will move along.
I,wll also enable the public to gsIn
some accurate idea of many things
lhst would not be cOmprehended By
numbers. AtJhis hour in the morning
tue SKY ls nearly c.oudless, and there
s no apparent possibility Of a storm
before night.
