SPLENDID PARADE-FREMESs WELCOME
The most splendid parade that our citizens have
Witnessed for long time came oil last night, on the
occasion Of the reception Of DLIGEST HOSE Con-
PANY Of Philadelphia. The night was the best that
could have been selected by the smplest fore
knowledge, aid the boys were consequently in the
best of spirits, aud tur1ed out with full ranks. A
finer body OF men could not have been selected
from this or any other city, and more decorous,
orderly and quiet parade We have never witnessed.
Engineer Eichells ard his Assistants performed
most excellenty the responsible and lsborious duty
ofiorming the procession, and nothing like collision
or coEfusion occurred. We made out the line as
follows, though it is possible that some Companies
were out whose names and numbers escaped US.
The line was formed in the Park, and marched down
Broadway in the following order:

ENLARGEMENT OF THE CAPITOL
II The Committee on Public Buildings Of the
Senate, having been authorized by resolution Of
that body, " to invite plans accompanied by est-
mates for the extension Of the Capitol, and to al
low premium Of five hundred dollars for the
plan which may be adopted by the Committees on
Public Buildings of the two Houses Of Congress"
accordingly invite such plans and estimates, to be
delivered to the Secretary Of the Senate on or be-
fore the first day Of December next
1t il required that these plans and estimates
shall provide for the extension Of the Capitol,
either by additional wings, to be placed on the
north and south Of the present building, or by the
erection of separate and distinct building, within
the enclosure to the east Of the building.
J The committee do not desire to prescribe any
condition, that may restrain the free exercise OF
architectural taste ard judgment, but they would
prefer, that whatever plan may be proposed may
| have such reference to and correspondence with
| the present building as to preserve the general
symmetry of the entire structure, when complete.
Although but one plan can be adopted, the COM
mttee reserve TO themselves the right to form such
plan by the adoption of parts Of different plans
submitted should such course be found necessary; in
which event, the committee also reserve to them
selves the right to divide or apportion, according
to their own Judgment, the amount of premium to
be awarded for the whole, to those whose plans
may in part be adopted, according to the relative
Importance and merit Of each part adopted.
