GLORIOUS DAY FOR ST. LOUIS AND
THE STATE.-THE PEOPLE HAVE
COME
We cannot believe that any friend of HAIR
R1soN could, in Ills most sanguine moments,
have anticipated so glorious day-Such a
turnout of the people-aS was witnessed on
Tuesday last in this city. Every thing was
auspicious. The heavenS-thea ir-the earth
all seemed to have combined TO assist in
doing honor to the services, the patriotism
and the virtues of WIN. HENRY HARRISON.
Never have we seen so much enthusiasm
so much honest, impaSsioned and eloquen1
feeling-displayed in the countenances, and
bursting from the lips, of freemen. It was

when they were about TO cast from them the
incubus Of polluted and abandoned party
and when they could look forward to better
and happier days in store for them and for
the country. The city itself bore, in some
respects, the remarkable character OF Sab
bath day. By the Wings, and even among
the Democrats, there was little work done.
The doors of all places of business were clio
sed and nothing was thought of on this carni-
val day, but Joy and gratitude. We noticed

occurred.
Preparations had been made for the recep-

The proper committees, at Mrs AsnLEY'S resi-
dencse. The extensive Park was so arrang-
ed as TO accommodate the throng CT persons
who were expected. Seats were erected for
the officers of the day, for the Speakers and
for the ladies. At the hour appointed by
the Marshal OF the Day. the people common
ced to assemble at the Court House. and sew

While this was going on, the steamboats, !
bringing Delegations from ST. Charles, Han |
nibal, Adams county, ILL.,, and Alton, arrived
al the wharf, with banners unfurled to the
breeze, and presenting most cheering sight.
The order of procession, so far as we have
