FIREMEN'S PAREDIL.--The grand display of our
Fire Department came off on Saturday, and it was tru
ly ibrilliaut spectacle. The fore part of the day was
dark and lowering, and many feared that the display
of the nomparries, for which they had made such ex
tensive preparations, would be marred by wet weather.
It cleared up for a short time about noon, but before
the parade was over, a drizzling rain commenced
whichWlLS very unpleasant, and destroyed much of the
beautiful effect of the parade.
The companies met in Liberty street at the hour ap
pointed, and formed in procession in the following or
der
r ens,
r Earle Hose—dressed in Uniform; with banner of a
sr, Engle, in front•
Eagle Engine--dressed in citizen's dress•
Allegheny Engine and llose--vrbite shirts and pants;
fire hats.
Duquesne Engine and Hose—blue shirts and white
pant fire hats.
Neptune Engine and hose—drawn by 4 horses, with
picture of Neptune. Light blue shirts,white pluits and
glazed hats.
Niagara Engine and Hose—drawn by four horses.
Red shirts (with star on the breast,) white pants and
fire Bats.
Vigibustßose--recl shirts, with white collars, white
pants and fire hats.
Washington Engine and Hose—drawn by four hor
sas; white shirts and pants, fire hats.
Wm. Penn Engine and Hose—check sh;rts, black .
pants, citizen's hats.
Uncle Sans Engine—drawn by six ponies, tandem;
white shirts with blue collars, white panu, and fantas
tic four-cornered hats.
Many curious devices were seen in the procession.—
The Duquesne bad five little boys, dressed as papooses,
who looked quite interestinz and on the Washington
stood the very impersonation of a Brave, smoking his
pipe, 'and scowling terribly on the "pale faces" around
him. A member of the Eagle, was armed with a wood
en sword, foe feet long, and strutted along, with all
the superiority of a Gulliver among Lilliputians.
Most of the companies were attended by a full band
of music, and the excellent arrangements and perfect
order that prevailed the wh.le procession, made it one
of the Most interesting displays that has ever been wit
nessed in our city.
THE DEMOCRATIC MEETI2 , G of Saturday night was
roarer. The people were there in their majesty and
strength. Owing to the inclement state of the evening,
the meeting adjourned from BrOUflhUrlq . l. yard to the
United States Hotel, where excellent, stirring -mid cot.-
incing addresses were delivered by Judge
Andre,. Burke, Thomas Hamilton. and:the Hon. John
T. Mason, of Maryland. It must have been d source
of pride to every democrat present, to observe how
calmly and how triumphantly Judge Wilkins vindica
"tea himself from the. mafignant and molt groundless
charges of Craic and his "sutlers." lie hurled de
fiance itt his acetnr2es,and dared them to a public dis
cussion of their principles and their claims to the sup
port of the voters Will they be manly enough to ac
cept his propositionl Not they, we %via venture to
predict.
Tlu fulloaingr,,solution was adopted:
Resolved, That this meeting adjourn W mvel.
at
Broadkarst' , Mansion [louse on Friday evening next,
at 7 o'clock, and thatthe Congressionalcandidates, and
'ho sulotitutes, are hereby invited to attend for the put

to-night, at the Armory of the Hibernia Greens.—
Wilson iAlicCaadless and Andrew Burke, Eqs. will

fact is suffteient to insure the attendance of every bixly.

claiming, "God save the Commonwealth!" There has
been a "revival" in Venango, we guess.

AT the solicitation of a number of friends of all
political parties, I respectfully offer myself to
the consideration of my fellow-citizens for the office of
County Commissioner. That my sentiments may not
be misunderstood, either as to political or private
affairs, I make free to say tat 1 have been all ray life
a consistent Republican, in the true sense of the word.
As the country is somewhat embarrassed in its finan
cial affairs, and the reduction of salaries of public
officers has received the approbation of large majori
ties of the people, the undersigned would not should
he be so fortunate as to be elected, in any manner at
tempt to resist this salutary reform; should it reach
the office of County Commissioner.

To the voters of Allegheny county:—l respect

by a Convention, those of you to whom I am not per
sonally known will please examine_ into my qualifica
tions, &c.; and if so fortunate as to obtain a majority
of your se rages, I shall endeavor by strict attention
to the duties of the office, to satisfy you with your
choice. ALEX Al ELLER.
