ordinary interest by our citizens as the day upon
which the Japanese Ambassa Tors, the guests ofthe
Government of the United States, were to pay
Baltimore visit, before showing themselves in
Philadelphia New York In anticipation of
the event great preparations had been made by the
City Council to make their stay here, although
short, of the most pleasant and interesting cha
racter. The morning broke clear, cool and plea
SAINT an atmosphere well tempered for the pro-
ceedngs which were to attract the attention of the
whole population. At an early hour the streets
alive with people ofevery Glass; moving to and
fro, some to take part in the pageant about to fol-
low, and others anxious to gain accessi Bile points
to view a spectacle unknown hitherto to the city

programme of the route which would be taken
by the procession having previously been made
known, the streets along the were gaily deco
rated with the American and Japanese flags, and
other appropriate devices Along all the thorough
fares the crowd was immense, greater perhaps
than on any previous occasion in the history of the
city. The whole population seemed to have been
bent on one common object. and people of all sexes
coors and conditions wended their way to the ave
nues where sight of the strangers could be advan
tageousy had. Baltimore street, being most cen.
trail, densely packed either side with people,
The windows of the storehouses, dwellings and pub
lie offices crowded with ladies' and where the
storekeepers could not accommodate them inside,
platforms built of packing boxes and counters were
erected on the sidewalks, to afford all an op-
portunity to crafty their curiosity. House-tops
and chimney tops were made available by the male
sex to take observations of the proceedings below
One, indeed, could hardly imagine a more compact
mass of human beings than was seen yesterday on
Baltimore street, between Eutaw and Asquith
streets-a distance of over mile. Notwithstand-
ing this great outpouring of the masses no trouble
or disturbance worth mentioning marred the en-
joyment of anyone With but few exceptions
everybody seemed determined on self-gratifca-
tiOn, and to try to give other people little trou
BILE possible.
THE DEPARTURE OF THE EMBASSY FROM WASHINGTON
1t having been announced in Washington that
the Embassy would leave that city yesterday at an
early hour, the thoroughfares surrounding their
quarters at Wiards' were thronged by an anxious
crowd, all seeming eager to have farewell glance
of their distinguished visitors, and of their kind
and atfable attendants. The steps leading to the
entrance Fourteenth street, from which they
were to proceed to their carriages, completely
beseged, and it with great difficulty the police
enabled to keep sufficient space open through
which they might pass. The attendants were the
first to come forth land as they moved through the
hand of each was seized in turn by those on either
side, mostly children, who with their merry voices
sung out pleasant 'good bye" which was respond
ed to in a courteous manner by their departing
friends. The attendants having all been seated in
four large coaches, the four ambassadors were es-
corted by the Naval Commission to open barOuches,
and the line moved up Pennsylvania avenue to the
street at the foot of the Capitol and from thence
the railroad depot, where they took special train
for this city.
THE ARRIVAL AT CAMDEN STATION.
Long before the train bearing the guests was
expected to arrive, crowds of people were seen
vending their way towards the depot grounds of
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad and by half-past
nine O'Clock some twenty or thirty thousand hu-
hnip harya toI
avenues leading to the Camden street station
Thousands finding that it would be impossible to
get near enough to the train upon its arrival to
catch glimpse at the japanese, moved off and
stationed themselves on Entaw street, which
became packed with human beings, from Camden
to Baltimore street At five minutes of ten o. clock
a gun, fired by detachment of the Eagle Artillery
Company, which was stationed on lot near South
Eutaw street, announced that the train was in
sight, when mighty rush of thousands was made
towards the depot buildings. Not more than a
minute elapsed before the cars came along almost
at full speed towards the Camden street station.
Here scene of wild excitement ensued; men, wO-
men and children, white and black, sent up loud
huZZas and screams, and ran towards the train, as
if they might be anxious to throw themselves
under the wheels of the cars which contained the
strangers. The train passed through the depot
buildings, below Conway street, and stopped i'm
medately in the of the building, on Conway
street. The platforms, here were in charge of
detachment OF the police, under Deputy Marshal
allowed to get upon them. By this admirable ar
rangement the visitors not annoyed as they
embarked from the cars, and, conducted by the
aids of the Mayor, they proceeded quietly and in
digniied manner into the hall of the station where
together with the Naval Commission having
them in charge, they greeted in a cordial
manner by his Honor Mayor Swami. With re-
markable promptitude the guests were seated in
the conveyances assigned them, and in about
twenty minutes the procession moved. The lnde-
pendent Greys, Captain }. Lyle Clark, and the
Law Greys, Captain Thomas Bowers, both in full
ranks, specially detailed as Guard of Honor,

of march. Both companies looked exceedingly
well, and performed their duty in a becoming
manner.
