Philadelphia has.outdone all her pre-.
vious efforts. At an early hour this
city blossomed with flngs, and the
streets were filled with enthusiastic
crowds 1t seemed as if every citizen
who owned flag had hung it out, and
as if all owners of flags were around in
spectipg the effect. .. = t~ Co.,.
When the Southern delegations had
finally formed and began to march out
into the streets, the organizations which
were on the ground to net as. escorts,
and the throng which had gathered to
see, burst out into prolonged cheers
Women waved their welcome from ev-
cry window and every step. For miles
the march was in the shadow of Union
flags. Except the narrow space cleared
for the procession, the streets and pave
ments were packed all along the line Of
march. Sixteen bands furnished the
column with music.
The crowd seemed wild with gladucss;
every citizen appeared to be shouting
as if he deemed il Il duty by so doing to
tell the country that there was loyalty,
enthusiasm, and Union spirit enough
in the city, notwithstanding the late
Convention and Mr.. Johnson failed TO
call it forth.
