The Court Of Claims, on Tuesday, decided
against allowance Of interest on the claims

of similar character. Cheers upon cheers were
given for Mr. Buchanan which scarcely died
away, when the huzzas were renewed with the
most voclerous enthusiasm for the distin-
gushed Ex-Minister. After Mr.. Buchanan
appeared on the balcony, the excitement was
50 great and the swaying of the mob so heavy,
that IT was with the greatest difficulty that suf
hcient order was restored to hear the words of
the illustrions speaker. When it is taken into
consideration that these outbursts of popular
prediction were spontaneous, springing from
honest hearts, approaching the eminent ser
wees OF their great countryman, the occasion
IS almost unparalleled in enthusiasm.
AT ten o'clock, Mr.. Buchanan was serenaded
at the Merchants Hotel, by the Keystone Club.
The band having played alone, sweet
home" Mr.. Buchanan was loudly called for.
After the excitement among the dense mass
OF human beings had subsidized Mr.. Buchanan
again appeared and made speech.
