As ee passed through an exchange of 21 guns took place between the New York and the !More Battery. Onoe inside, the harbor Opened out and a great many shies were in view. These proved to be three fleets of German ships and the Austrian fleet. As we paeseci them the Lintel Delete was fired for each flag ship or senior shin of the fleet and we finally came to &richer abreeet a heavily wooded blu.ff with beauti- ful German houses and miniature castles peeping out amongst the foliage. The bottles looked very odd indeed. just around this bluff appeared the city, just in front of which appeared more German °raisers and men of, war conapielous among them being the Imperial yacht Hohenzollern, a great white ship as big as the Columbite bat built more mealy° and beautiful, the fineet ship in fa.ct I have ever aeon. Even the tops of the two big smoke stacka are polished braes which gleams and glitters in the sunlight, and ae yeerhayennagine, everything about her Was ui kLlad htat as is possible for a ship to be, The next day(Sunday)we saw a great baleen rise from the city and float tomes the harbor and out of sight beyond the hills. With the aid of a powerful pair of marine glasses which I have got I could SCO two men in it.

Teen the continual roar ot gem of 40 time the ealibre, and the great rueh and scream of great masses of metal coming and going, the thud and crush of iron and steel being rent and torn by eteel would mingle with the shrieke and cries of the puny humans who were being crusbed and torn in the devilish struggles of theta reed monsters which they bad created and bought together. The relation of the Columbia to one of these brutes would be like a hound to a bear, While she could run away from or all around one of there, elle would be anni. hilated should she venture too dose.

The following ciaythe Emperoree.ccompanierl by O small ship from each netion, appeared far down the canal, and as he emerged from the mouth into the harbor all the shipa let fly again. In the afternoon as he with some dainty tool gave the last stroke to tbe great work, they all hanged away again., So you see it has been a, nobly celebration. The 21 of May and the 4ela of July are not in it at all with this.Altogether there were 116 ships lying here. Of these 83 were battle ships and craisere, 53 being foreign and the rest German, so you see it was a most imposing spectacle.
