NEW BRUNSWICK. (From the St. John Morning Freeman.)

ofthefirat lod ofthe European an Iortli American Railway.

A finer day than the Fourteenth of Sep- tember for such a demonstration as that to which the people of the Province had long looked with so much of hope and unxiety—- the turning of the first sod of the E. St N. A. Railway, the great object of so many hopes and desires, aspirations and labours, could not have been desired. The uns from Fort Howe, saluted the early awn which broke mild, and calm beiniteous, with scarce a breath of air to usher in the greatest day for New Brunswick and its

eople that had ever been witnessed. Every boat and every conveyance had brought in numbers of strangers and guests, prepared to share in the rejoicings. From Halifax and Annapolis and the other parts of Nova Scotis, came hundreds of our fellow colo- nists to express their sympathy with our la- bours nnd their joy at our success. From the Bend and Sackville and other parts of Westmoreland, from Keizt and the other Counties on the Gulf Shore came hundreds to express the anxious wish of those residing in these pet-ts of our own Province, for a more intimate union with us, and their joy at the prospect of the speedy realisation of their long cherished hopes. From Fred- ericton, and all along the River St. John, came thousands to exult and share inthe triumph that had been achieved for all. Every steamer was crowded, some it is said to such excess, that the passengers had not even room to sit down. The Governor and Lady Head came down on Tuesday evening, and were received with the usual honours. The band of the 76th Regt. came down at the same time, as did some hun- dreds of the people of Fredericton, The members of the Executive and several others had arrived on the previous days, and the Hotels were all filled to excess, but the citizens responded to the call ofthe Managing Committee, and threw open their doors to welcome the strangers who had come to share in their joy and triumph. The entire number of strangers in the City on this occasion, which of course it would be impossible to estimate correctly, has been variously estimated at from l0 to 20 thousand.

‘rm: crrv. Some efforts had been made for some days previous tmdecorate the City. The Cor- poration had set men to work to decorate the Bell Tower, and under the superintend- ence of Mr. Mills of the Cemetry, it soon began to wear quite a new appearance and look with its tasteful decorations sur- mounted by the union jack, supported by a sailor. No 5 Engine Company, amongst its other works, erected in Germain Street a handsome triumphal arch, the large arch having a smaller one on each side. This was surmounted by the tldgs of England and America, and bore the inscriptions on the top and over either arch. “ The Rail- way — Europe — New Brunswick—Ameri- ca.” The arch was neatly ornamented and had a most pleasing effect. ’ No. 3 Fire Company had an arch from their Engine House, dressed with evergreens, with g bust of the Queen in the middle and an enormous lion standing at one side. Flags were sus ended across the street at the Custom ouse building, from N o. 4 Engine House, and at various other points, and flags of all kinds were hung from every flag stall‘ in the city and all the vessels in the harbour mounted their colours. It was a great festival; the city decked herself in her gala costume, and the whole body of citizens and strangers thronged the streets and squares, their faces beaming with pride and joy, and their every movement an ex- pression of the feelings that animated them all. ‘I'll! susqunans.

‘At early dawn the redoubtable corps of Odds and Ends began to muster, and in a very little time succeeded in arousing the entire city. We cannot pretend to form any opinion as to their numbers, or to give any descri tion of theiroxtravagsntly gro- tesque an ludicrous costumes, except to any that in these, extravagant as they were, ‘they displayed no ordina degree of origi-

tty and the most singu ar tastes and no- on. They had soon a large crowd ga- tkeredparound them as they rode on their Nfillfhable steeds with unique caparieons, or drove in their still more out-o -the-way vehicles, most complete good hu- mour was dieplayed on all sides.

Soon. afler eight o’clock'thero llecsrue perceptible a hurry’ to and no of.un- bars of the various sodas and Societies that were to form the Procession, and the crowds which had been large front the first glimpse of daylight, and every moment in- croasi , now an tofillthe streets com. pletely.

gine how they could have formed in pro- cession at all within the city. From nine to a quarter-pest ten the se- veral bodies continued to arrive and take up the position assigned them. the head of the Processione forming on Sydney Street. When at length all had taken their places, and the order was given to move, the Pro- cession advanced along Sidney Street, the 4th and 5th divisions deploying on Car- msrthen Street, and passing down James Street, so as to take up their proper posi- tion in the rear of the Procession. In our description of the Procession, it will, perba s, be better to adhere to the order laid own in the programme though this was in a few instances departed from. 1-itsnns. House Canrlrrrnns urn Jotwsns, Marshal. with Banner, and a Workshop in fall operation, r wu y horses. Uniform—l"all dress, white apron, emblems of trade.

This trade made a very respectable ap e. In their workshop, men we“ in the various occupations of the cra , d a sash machine was at full work. Next in order came the ship carpenters. . Siur Casi-an-sans. Marshal. Grand Union Banner, Carried by four Standard Bearers. in Uniform, followed by the foremen, and models of ships from 16 different yards.

This was one of the largest and finest bodies of men in the Procession. The men from the various yards were in uniform, white jackets, trimmed with blue, and caps of various kind, with gold bands, &.c. They bore their axes, adzes, and the various emblems of trade, and their several stand- ards, with appropriate devices and mottoes. The model of the world renowned “Marco Polo,” from Mr. Smith's yard, the beauti- ful model of the “ Guiding Star,” about twenty feet in length, completely timbered, &c., and the ship on stocks, in the course of construction, with the men actually at work, from the yard of Mr. Potts, attracted, and deservedly, much attention. Owing to a mistake we made, respecting the position ofthese bodies, we are una e, at present, to give a fuller description of their several banners, &c., but we can say that they were a splendid body of men and made a ‘liable appearance. Ship building is now the great boast and glory of our city and more beautiful models, or men better able to build ships, to compete with the world, no port could furnish.

They must have endured much coming down the river in the night boat, but this by no means impaired their good looks. They are a fine y of men. They had with them the splendid Hose Cart, built alto- gether by a Frederiction mechanic, and attracted so much attention at the ' ition. , St. "a Companies had their usual ‘ere, decorations, 8t.c., their e ines, one carts and tenders fitted u wit the
