that his Honor smiled the sweetest bowed sort

blandly towards the row of Councilman. The

upstairs to the rooms Of the Commissioners Of

huzzaed enthusiastically Afterwards the Prince
entered the magnificent barouche prepared for

Broadway to the City Hall. All the streets were
and on all the housetops on every side, like huge
swarms of bees.
The operation Of clearing the streets was en- ex.

crowded the middle Of the thoroug hfare could not
be forced upon the sidewalks, and Were driven
into the side streets. Such pulling, pushing

hammered boy, sitting beside his Honor the
Mayor, and wearing military hat The disap-
pointed ones-those who did not see him-made

Joined the crowd at some other point to try their
luck again. Undoubtedly many thousands from
one end Of the route to the other, who had waited
hours for the Princes coming, departed to their
homes unable to boast hereafter that they had seen
him. Y...>
As the procession passed the Metropolitan otel,
an enthusiastic workingman, carried away by the
excitement OF the occasion, left his post on the
sidewalk, ran towards tie Princes carriage and
extended his hand to his Highness with hearty
salutation. The Prince shook hands with him,
made graceful bow, and passed on. The man
resumed his place on the curbstone, apparently
delighted by the suavity Of the Princes demeanor
and pleasantly unconscious Of the fact that pre-
