us, and we have given the above cut so that the
readers of the Herald may know at once which
is the man. Many will remember that on varl-
Gus occasions, when great men have visited US,
and rode in procession through the streets, the
anxious enquiry of Which is he % has been
heard all along the line, and echo only has
answered A." Which is he o. And many man,
woman, and child has gone home wonderfully
troubled with certain doubts as to whether he
| or she had, in reality seen the lion at ALL A
careful study Of the cut at the head OF this COL
umn, will obviate all such difficulty
At nine O'Clock A. NJ, the committee OF the
Common Council will leave here in steam
boat provided for the occasion, and with num-
Der of invited guests in company, proceed to
Perth Amboy, where they are to meet the Presl-
dent, who leaves Philadelphia at o'clock
The guests will remain on board the boat while
| the committee proceed on shore to receive their
honored guest from the New Jersey escort.
| The chairman of the committee will address his
excellency in behalf of the authorities of New
York in general and his committee in particu-
lar All hands will then come board and
proceed to this city, landing at Castle Garden;
where the Mayor and Common Council, and
other officers, civil and military, will be in at
tendance to tender the inequalities of the city.
The Mayor will here make the address recep-
tive; and the necessary forms having been OBJ
served, the President will pass from the Castle
to the Battery and review the troops. The pro-
cession will then fern and move under the d
rection of marshals up Broadway to Astor place,
| through Astor place to the Bowery, down the
| Bowery and Chatham street to the eastern gate
of the Park to the front of the City Hall, where
feu de joie will be fired by the military, as the
President passes to his quarters at the Astor
| House.
On Saturday MIR. Polk will receive calls from
the citizens, at the Governors room, in the City
Hall, in the morning; and in the afternoon visit
the High Bridge, the institution for the blind,
and perhaps make call or two at some other
places of note, far up town. He will, of course,
attend church on Sunday, and Monday will
be escorted to his place of e nbarkation for Bos-
tom A regular programme Of the order in which
the procession is to form and move, will be pro-
mulgated in time to inform the several societies
where they are to report, &C., and 1t Is partlcn-
larly desirable that all associations disposed TO
Join, should report early as possible to the pro-
| per marshals
The police arrangements complete, and all
adventures in the pocket picking line, are
warned in advance. They will be closely
watched, and the chances are, that If their
thievish fingers are found in their neighbours
pockets, they will sup at the Egyptian palace,
without the least danger of injuring their health
from the effects of too rich repast.
Gen. Sanford has issued the following orders,
which are to regulate the movements of the mill
tary, on this occasion:
