The associated bakers wore light shirts trimmed with blue, and black pants and neat white aprons, which gave them something of the appearance of a society of Free Masons. Bebind the ession two colored men led two white horses, nessed to a li: in which was an immense loaf of brea » decorat with petite flags and wreaths of flowers, which attracted universal attention and wonder. The loaf was at least six feet in length, and of propor- tionate circumference, and excited great specula- tion as to the manner in which it was baked. The afternoon proved unfavorable for the bakers on account of the rain, which began to fail shortly after they paraded, and continued through the night, but they doubtless —— to have a a time beneath the ample shelter of Loeffier’s eons. ht wagon Sea Batuinc.—We are much ogee to hear, from recent visitors, that the cid and favorite watering place, Piney Point, is still under the slirection of Mrs. Dix,whese kind attentions have been experienced by all visiting the place. It is only requisite to add, that time has no! only added to the beauty of this charming location by the growth and extension of foliage and shade, but the oysters, planted in the lagoon extending on the north of the premises and attached thereto, Lave increased and fattened, and now afford an abundant supply, fresh from the water each morn- ing and evening. Those who remember the Planting of these oyster beds should goand realize what planted oysters are susceptible of becomin; If well-provided fish and fowl, elegantly prepared, can be obtained on the Potomac, Mrs. Dix will serve her guesis to their entire satisfaction. Cool and airy rooms, clean linen, a fine sandy beach, with bath houses for bathing, for the ladies, and accessible fishing for sport, are among the objects which recommend Piney Point to the seekers of Pleasure and health. Tue Gariearpi Fastivat, held at the Park, Seventh street, on Monday last, was very nomer- ously attended by those of our citizens who sym- pathize with the cause of Garibaldi and his fol- towers in Italy. The different German and Italian associations assembled en masse, with appropriate banners, and marched through the streets, pre- ceded by bands of music, to the place of ren- dezvous, where an immense multitude had as- sembled to participate in the festivities of the eceazsion. Speeches were made, national hymns sung by the societies, national airs played by the bands, and the whole affair passed off in the most delightful manner, and a considerable fand was realized. which will be transmitted without delay to the “Great Liberator,”’ in whose behalf the fes- tival wasevoked. At a late hour the party re- turned to their homes, weil pleased with the occurrences of the day.

It isa candiestick or candelebra, intended to support the three lesser lights. The base is constructed of ware ffames of red cedar—their dimen- sions 6,11, and 12% inches; so arranged as to the 47th (eaten ot Euclid. The smallest square on the right oy Pointing South is inlaid With white bolly and black walnut ona X,=, |. A larger square pened to the West, press. with oak, in which is inserted the letter . The largest square, raised on the hypothenuse extendin; — contains the Master’s capet, bor- dered with vai ated wood, in the centre a star. On this base is set an irregular i le oe tore, na pine, representing a square plumb ai evel; thetberiet side of the tight angle resting on the base, the longest side against South, the hypothenuse Northward. On its apex is poised a celestial globe of red cedar, upon which are de- lineated the zodiacal signs the various con- stellations as they appeared in April last. Beneath the globe are three scrolls, forming a triangle, to bear the lights, carved with pomegranate and lily work. On the points of these arms or scrolls are the candle-sockets, the Eest one representing an Ethiopian lily, the West a heliotrope, the South @ inorning Bioty Between the celestial globe and the light on the South arm isa figure of the sun in {ts meridian splendor; on the Western arm is a representation of the moon in her sil vi radiance; against the hypothenuse, of the Nor side, is the representation of the great lights rest- Ing on two parallel lines outside of a circle in the center of that circle a lag tn harmony with the sun and moon. Beneath the celestial is placed the terrestial globe, made of different kinds of wood, so as to have the sppesranee of a map,with lines of long! tudeand latitude, &c.

The large aquarium at the south door of the Museum contains a young alligator, sent here from Georgia; avery fine specimen, now about four feet long, and very bealthy. He is visited by numbers of visitors daily, and i great curiosity to persons who have never seen any of bis tribe. He is fed peaulaely, and,may possibly live to attain his full size ¢ has an astonishing appetite for toads, Ayes seme &c., and his meals afford diversion for his rs and those who may be present.

The name by which they are called at the Insti- tution is cyrin, or cyrene.
