    THE celebration commemorative of the completion of the great lines of railway connecting our City with the Canadas and the West, and the establishment by some of our citizens, of a line of Ocean steamships to facilitate and enlarge our commercial intercourse with the Old World, was an event which will long be remembered, and the history of which must form a prominent chapter in the social and commercial annals of Boston.
    It was a celebration worthy of the occasion and of the character of the City by which it was instituted; a jubilee in commemoration of the peaceful and beneficent triumphs of science and skill, appointed by a City distinguished for the intelligent enterprise and resolute perseverance of its inhabitants, and for its faithful maintenance and promotion of all those great interests, Civil, Religious, Literary and Industrial, upon which the well being and progress of a community so essentially depend.
