Fire Department Parade.? 77le Fire Boys Jfake a Qooil Ditploy.?The Fire Department of this city turned out yesterday in force, in a parade throngh the streets of the city, preparatory to participating in the ball given at Washington Hall last night The procession formed nt Capitol Square at 2 o'clock, at which place Kramer's band discoursed several popular airs for the edification of the members of the Legislature and a large number of citizens previous to tne moving of the procession, which formed on Chaplino street, right resting on Sixteenth, and passed over the following route: Up Sixteenth to Wood, up Wood to Fifteenth,- down Fifteenth to Eofl", up Eoff to Twelfth, down Twelfth to Market, up Market to Fifth, down Fifth to Main, down Main to Twenty-Fourth, up Twenty-Fourth to Chapline, down Chapline to Thirty-Third, up Thirty-Third to Eoff, down Eoff to Thirty-Seventh, up Thirty-Seventh to Jacob, up Jacob to Thirty-Third, down Thirty-Third to l''ofl', up Eoff to Twenty-Fourth, down TwentyFourth to Chapline, up Chapline to Twentieth, down Twentieth to Market, up Market to Sixteenth, thenco to place of beginning.

Following and bringing up the rear came the Eighth Ward hose reel, followed by a number of members of the Fire Department on horseback, in full dress uniform. The processiou was a very creditable one, and the present fire boys may well be proud of their first success in this line. TIIK HALL in.the evening was a grand success. Chief Eccles and his stiff were present in their new and glittering uniforms, and added much eclat to the occasion. But besides the Chief and his staff there were present the full department, all in brightand gorgeous uniforms, and a jolty crowd of dancers, who seemed bent upon keeping up the enjoyment the whole night long. Kramer's "unrivalled orchestra furnished the dancing music, the floor was in lino condition, and it was nobody's fault but the dancers if they did not thoroughly enjoy themselves. Diiriinr the evening numerous members of the City Council, city officers, a,.d the outside world generally dropped in to enjoy tlio gay and festive scene. The mirth anil merriment incident upon an occasion of this kind wag continued until quite late, anil the only cessation of the evening's happiness experienced was when the company present marched to Laramie's restaurant and partook of such a collation as only Laramie can spread.
