ANDERSON, The number of Firemen from neighboring cities, was - - 1,072 The number in the New York Department - - 3,003 Total, 4,075 The Procession was so long that it was impossible for all to meet at the Battery, or even within two miles of it. While one branch, therefore, were moving into the line on Broadway, by marching towards the Battery, another in the procession were marching up. In this double line the different Fire Companies passed and re-passed for three-quarters of an hour. The citizen firemen paid marked respect to their guests, and one another as they passed, either by moving on with their heads uncovered or by raising their hats. Surely, we thought, with Croton water to extinguish a fire, and such a body of men to use it, New York will never suffer again from a conflagration. FIFTH DIVISION.
