Pnll Accotmt of the Varioxis Erents on the Programme. 1 It w.is a mosi beacitfal morn- j ; ing. Tbe sun rose in all the | ' effalgence of his attribotes as the \ j acknowledged god of day. The | light, tieecy, clouds whieh ain’^ i tioated over the northern and • I eastern horizon gave promise of a day most glorioas, but whieh is of ! usnal occurence in this lovely i capitai city of the Paradiseof the | Pacific. Natnre pnt on its most | charming aspect to witness the j tningled horrors of antiqaity as it passed by. The hoais rolled I on and, as the day god had been j ; but little over foar hoars old, ; his beams fell upon a military combiuation as it passed by. The uoon honr approached weather j still g!orious and a Palaee reoeption soon passed by aml the ! event, at high noon. heeame-like the roar of the salates and end in j smoke. As more aslant became the beams of the glorious sun, the I. X. L. raade holiday with heavy' sales of fireworks whieh, ! like the oratorical display advertised for this eveniug, will, ! ere the day god agaiu lifts his bright face to loeal eyes, become also, like tbe other events, a thing of the past.
