PRESIDENTIAL Tour.

COLUMBUS, O., Feb. I3.-The special train
of cars under charge of E. w. Woodward,
Superintendent, left Cincinnati at 9 o'clock.
The admirable arrangements of this road
were the subject of general remark. Among
the guests was Larz Anderson, brother of
Major Anderson. At Milford, Loveland,
MEANWHILE, Morrow, Corwin and London
the train stopped but moment, Lincoln
howing, shaking hands and bidding fare
Il to large crowds at each place. At
Morrow, Superintendent Woodward pre-
sented from the wife of the President of the
Miami road, boquet to Mrs. Lincoln. A t
Xenia very large concourse had assembled
firing cannon with much enthusiasm. Lin
coin addressed them from the rear of the
car, reiterating what he had said before, he
had no speech to make no time to make
one. The train arrived at Columbus at 3
o'clock amid the firing of cannon. Under
military escort Lincoln and suite proceeded
to the State Capitol, visiting Gov. Dennison
in the executive room. After introductions,
they proceeded to the joint session of the
Legislature in Representative Hall, where
they were welcomed by Lieut.. Gov. Kirk,
who delivered a short address, to which
Lincoln responded as follows:
Mr.. President, Mr.. Speaker, and gentle
men of the General Assembly 1t is true,
as has been said by the President of the
Senate, that q very great responsibility
rests upon me in the position to which the
votes of the American people have called
me. l am deeply sensible of that weighty
responsibility. / cannot but know, what
you all know, that without name, perhaps
without a reason why 1 should have a
name, there has fallen upon me task, such
as did not rest even upon the Father of his
nd foalinn INIT f1r
and look for that support, without which it
will be impossible for me to perform that
great task. l turn, then, and look to the
American people and that God who has
never forsaken them. Allusion has been
made to the interest felt in relation to the
policy of the new administration. On this
l have received from some a degree of credit
for having kept silence from other depreca-
ton. l still think l was right In the
varying and repeatedly changing scenes of
the present without a precedent which
/ could eaable US to judge by the past. it
has seemed fitting that before speaking upon
/ the difficulties of the country should have
/ gained view of the whole field to be sure,
I after ALL being at liberty to modify and
change the course of policy as future events
may make a change necessary. have not
maintained Silence from any want of real
anxiety, but I conclude, all we want is
time, patience, and reliance on tina: God
J who has never forsaken this people.
4 Fellow citizens what have said, have
/ said altogether extemporaneously andI now
will come to q close. ..-.'
After the remarks both Houses adjourn
ed. Lincoln made a few remarks to the
crowd outside and afterwards received the
4 citizens generally. A leree will be held
/ this evening at the house of Gov. DennisOn
Lincoln and family are guests of Gov. Den
| nison.

ALBANY, N. Y, Feb 13.-Business is
wholly suspended. The water is in several
of the streets running parallel with the
river. In the northern section of the city
the water is several feet high, and many
families have been driven to a hasty re-
treat. In number of instances families
have been obliged at last to remove by
means of boats from second story windows.
South Broadway, from near the Atlas and
Argus Office down to the the steamboat
landing, is navigable by boats. The Man
sion House is entirely surrounded 5y water.
When the ice went out two men had
narrow escape. They saw the breaking up
of the ice when in the middle of the river,
and ran for Hamilton. There they were
overtaken by the flood aud swept off. They
got upon large cake of ice and were car
ried down, and ran against the South Ferry
Slip, and were saved by means of ropes.
No description can convey an idea of the
extent of the disaster. Steamboats,, pro-
pelers, ferry-boats, vessels, and canal-boats,
were jammed together in a promiscuous
heap of ruins. There is at present no sign
of a fall.
