were'diepiayed in the large` windows and illumi

house was one mass of miniature flags Interspersed
witVolnetere of variegated lamps.

really beautiful. . - - -
The house of the PhoMix Rose OomPany, .on
Zane street,' above Seventh; was also - handsomely
illuminated. • - • • -
The vicinity of the display of fireworks, - on
Spring Garden and - Broad streets,. presented • a
'very creditable illumination. Many -large build
ings, public and private,.made a.very handsome
appearance ; but among those most deserving of
mention, we may instance Odd Fellows' Broadway
Hall, which bad a beautiful design on Broad
'Street, some fifteen feet Icing and ten feet high,
representing Franklin experimenting with his
kite.' Beside him are placed his bottle and keys,
while his kite is cleaving • the okiesand toying
with • the lightning, as it is wooed along the phi
losopher's hempen string. By the side of Franklin
Stands his ; son ' the solitary, but yet interested,
Spectator, of the great experiment. Above the
transparency are words, "This is the locality
where Dr. Franklin first caught electricity from
the olouds—afterwards „harnessed by Morse, and
placed-within the power of- Man ; and the perse
verance of Field causes this day's rejoioings." On
Spring Garden street was another beautiful trans
parency, suspended from the same hall, wall the
cable surrou nding each division of the globe, and
.above the motto—.,!'The'world in the bonds 9f
Friendship, Love, and Truth."-
Along the line .of the Sixth street railroad a
large number of.private.houses were handsomely
illuminated, and the same la doubtless trueof many
other Wanda.
On Sixth street; the trio most noted points were
the Model. ding establishmeista of Mr. Henry A.
Bower,.on Ate corner. of Green, and that of Mr.
Geo. 0. Bower, OD the corner of Vine. •
The large manufactory of Masers. William H.
Horstmann Sons, on Mellor. of Fifth and Gherry,
also presented a very attractive and novel device.
As the-reader may imagine, from' what we stated
some . . twenty odd pages of manuscript ago, the
hour at which we write is such as to preolude a

city', by early breakfast time. -There are, doubt

. THE FIREMEN'S PROCESSION.
The line of procession was - formed in Arch
street, the right resting on Broad, and commenced
marching at about eight o'clock It presented a
very, heautiful and imposing appearance, although
we regret that the turnout was not as general u
was expected. The pronession was interspersed
with flambeaux, hundreds of torches, banners,
transparencies, flags, and bands of music. As it
advanced it presented the appearance of an H. ,
'laminated moving forest.
The firemen were all handsomely equipped. We
noticed in the line the following companies:
The Hibernia Engine Company, preceded by a
band of mulct, 62 men. -
Good Intent Hose Company, 32 men.

various banners and devices.
FIEBVirORES. , ' •
• The grand display of fireworks took place in the
evening, at Broad and Spring Garden streets. The
display were a very brilliant one, and wia•wit.
"pissed by' an immense throng—far exceeding in
nimbeit the gathering in Independence Square.
Broad and Spring Garden 'thesis, for many
squares, were a perfect Mass of human beings, and
as the different pieces lit up the scene, the sea of
beads - presented was perfectly a:ldeal/filing. The
only..drawbaek to the-pleasure of the .entertaln.
Ment z Was the length of time intervening between
the pieces-presented, and the pressure of the •
crowd., When it is taken into consideration that
the throng hi thld vicinity was *flee that -in the
square to-day, and that Chestnut street Was a
perfect jam,. whilst Aroh and Market, and other
thoroughfares were almost equally crowded, come
Idea, and yet a very Imperfect one, may be formed
of the immensity of the living tide which ebbed and
dewed upon this gala occasion.
- The fireworks closed at fifteen minutes past
eleven o'clock, and although mon, women, and
children bad stood front dusk; there was, an/La
rentlY, no diminution in the pleasure of witness
ing the varied and interesting display;
From the Evening Bulletin, of yesterday, we
extract the following-fine gauzes, by our distin
guished townsman, who uses pen and peneitteith
equal success:
THE CABLE
LAID BY TOR " AGAIDINNON" AND " NIAGARA ~
BY T. BIIC*A2fAR READ.
Me fit the grand old kingly flame, '
Of which the kluelest poet Mugs,
Should eastward bear Jewel' track flame,
And link It to the land of hinge.
'Tin well Niagara, whose renown
With Freedom mingles evermore,
Should westward lay Its burden down,
And chain the world to Freedom's shore
'Ti. done ; the angry sea consents—
The nations stand no more apart ;
With clasped hands the continents
Feel throbbing' or each other's heart.
Speed, speed, the Cable; let it run,
• A loving girdle, round the earth,
-Till all the nations 'neath the sun
Shall be as brothers at one hearth:
As brothers pledging hand in hand,
One Freedom for the world abroad;
One commerce over every land;
One language and one God:-
Poetry by Telegraph.
- The literal Oorreotness of the verses oomposed
by Mrs. Stephens, as received by telegraph, and
published yesterday in Ten Panes, is very sur
prising—not a word Ls omitted, not a line injured.
Now, by previous inventions, however satisfactory
in many resPecta,"mistakes in a lengthy message
were almost inevitable. But the agent of the
Associated Press was supplied with this poetry by
the "Higbee Instrument," used by the American
Telegraph Company, and be bad no trouble with
the rhyme. To receive 'poetry correctly by tele
graph is indeed most' imrprising. We saw it,
printed as it was by the telegraphic apparatus
which transmitted it, and therefore speak of this

air wee misty, and the wind roughened the sea, and when
-I thought of all that we have paned through, of hopoe
thus far disappointed, of friends maddened by our rever
ses, of the few that remained to sustain us, I felt a load
at my heart, almost too he•iy to bear, though my con

Nett Bin—Being under the impression that you con.
eider a Passenger Railway in Chestnut and Walnut
streets a desirable Improvement, (sad, indeed, that
your disconnection from that enterprise arose merely
from an unwillingness to associate yourself with any
new projects,) you will much ob`ige us by an expression
of your opinions upon that subject, inasmuch as It has
been stated In some quarters that you entertain doubts
of she present expediency of that improvement.

To Dr. DAVID JAMUL
PIIuLADELPIIIa, August 81, 1858.
GENTLEUNN—I have Just received your emninunien.
tion of the 28th (net , in which you desire an expree
szon of my opinion upon the subject of a Pasaenger Rail
way upon Chestnut and Walnut streets. That my vlewe
upon this question will panne any particular weight or
Importance, I can hardly suppose; bat inasmuch as
you have asked .or an expression of them, you can have
them for what thj y are worth.
I am not now, nor have I been at any time, inter
ested as a stockholder or otherwise in any of the Pas
senger Railways non built, or proposed to be built, in
this city. I have, however, given the subject much re
flection and consideration. weighing their advantages
and disadvantages to all concerned, with great care, and
the result is a firm conviction of their great benefits
and usefulness, not only to the public. brit also to the
owners of property along the routes traversed by them.
The opinion which I have formed in regard to Passen
ger Railways generally, I consider peculiarly applicable
to Chestnut and Walnut etreets. Chestnut Street Is
now the great artery of the city, into which are poured
the great roue of the public, for either amusement or
business. Our largest hotels. our finest buildiege, and
our most extensive retail stores, as well as the courts
and public otibma ' are located upon this street. The
result is a arowd of pedestrians, of omnibuses and vehi
cles of various kiode, that frequently render it almost
impassable. Will a Passenger Railway increase or di
minish the oonfuslon already existing there? I firmly
believe that it will greatly lessen it. In the first place,
the convenient: well-appointed car, moving with little
noise, in one direction only, and alwals on the same
line, will take the piece of the lumbering, inconveni
ent and noisy omnibus, now occupying nearly the entire
street, to the serious inconvenience and annoyance of
nearly every person having bus'nese there. The omnl
bun has been a useful vehicle, but it has had its day.
It is notoriously more destructive upon our atreete
than all other vehicles combined ; and in addition ; the
jar made by it. upon streets where it is cooetantly raw
ning, shakes our dwellings to their foundations. Chest:
nut and Walnut streets, by reasou of them ' have be
come the most unpleasant thoroughfares In the city to
travel upon with a carriage or light vehicle
If Chestnut street is to preserve its present position
and to remain the great thoroughfare of the city, it can,
on y be done by keeping up with the improvements o
the day in regard to travel, This le a matter I consider
of serious moment to the ,owners of property upon it
Travel will go where it finds the greatest facilities.
Every convenience you afford of this nature increases
the number of passengers. If you deny the public these
faollitiea on Chestnut street, they will in time go to
those streets where they do find them, and eventually
Chestnut street will lose the advantages It now enjoys,
and they gill bo transferred elsewhere. Not In a day
nor a year. perhaps ; but, in my opinion, the revolution
will not be the lens certain.
Edo not deem it necessary to notice, in this connec
tion, the many objectione that have been, from time to
time urged againyt Passenger Railwaya., A year ago it
'light have been proper to do so ; but now it Is suffi
cient to point to the practical operations of those now
in use. The reedit has been to dispel all the prejudice
and imaginary evils attendant upon them, and to satisfy
every candid man, that for cheapness, expedition, and
comfort, in travel upon onr streets the Passenger
Railway can have no rival—while the Inconvenience to
the property owners along the mates is not one-tenth
of that experienced tot years put from the omnibuses.
And I have no doubt the day In not far distant, when
owners of property, who now oppose the railway a' In
jurious to their interests, will see their , tears entirely
dispelled, and, perhaps, regret (if their opposition
should be snceensful) that they stood in the way of a
great public improvement, alike beneficial to the pub
lic and themselves.
Very respectfully.
