the direction of Brigader Gen. Morris.
After entering Castle Garden, which was thronged
with people, the President was formally welcomed
10 the city by the Mayor, TO which he responded in
neat and appropriate speech, which was received
with great enthusiasm. The first division OF militia
ry were stationed on the battery. with an Immense
hrong of speca and were reviewed by the Presl-
dent horseback, amid the shouts and hurras oil the
multitude. The procession then formed, and
full one hour in passing out of the Battery The
parade very splendid, but severe storm Of rain
for time interrupted the evoIutions of the troops
After the storm had ceased the procession took up
it's line of march for the Crystal Palace. Through
the entire the streets literally damned
with the masses of people, and the President was
greeted with cheers, waving of handkerchefs, &c.
At 2 O'Clock the cortege reached the Crystal Pal-
ace, and the President and Cabinet were conducted
to platform the north nave, where were also as
sembled Generals Scott and Wool, Gov. Hunt, and
many other distinguished Persorages from home and

sung by the New York Harmonic, and accompanied
by the National Guard Band.
The President then welcomed by Theodore
Sedgwick in a neat address, to which he replied in
very short address, pleading his inability to speak
at length. He seemed very much fatigucd., The
ceremonies then closed with Handl's celebrated
halleIujah chorus from the Messiah which, sung
by an immense chorus, produced magnificent mu-
steal effect.
While the guests were occupied with viewing the
Exhibition grand concert was given by DOdworth'
and the National Guards Bands.
The palace was not overcrowded none but in
vied guests, and those holding tickets. were
admitted.
The City Banquet, in honor of the President, will
