The steamers, tugs, and row boats in the city, numbering many hundreds, will move in stately procession round the Bay. Chinese lanterns will illumine the vessels, and a continuous shower of rockets and Roman candles will make a spectacle of fiery brilliancy never before witnessed in Canada. In forts erected in the Bay, a mimic naval combat will be waged, and the conclusion of the struggle will far eclipse any- thing in the line of pyrotechnical display ever shown in Canada. Professor Hand, of Hamilton, has charge of all arrangements. - Trip to IWlagara and LewLstoii This is a most delightful sail, and every one should make it convenient to go. The steamer Chicora leaves Yonge Street wharf at 7 a.m. and 2 p.m., reaching home before dark, so that excursionists are not obliged to be out late, but have a chance of visiting any of the amusements in town on their jeturn. Those who have crossed in the Chicora know the accommodation, etc., on board. The sail up the Niagara River to Lewiston is past explanation — it is simply gorgeous. See Chicora advertisement on p. 10. ^ Huniber Park 3 The steamer Annie Craiz leaves York Street wharf at 10.30 o'clock.
