The CROWDS STILL CoMIso.-The trains
yesterday were very heavy, and several cx-
tras arrived, one being q through train Of
eleven crowded cars from New York. The
train bringing In the Western mail, includ-
ing Baltimoreans, had about six hundred
passengers, and probably twice that number
will arrive from the West tomorrow. The
trains were composed Of, all told, about sixty
cars, aud Il Is thought the number of passcn-
gers was over four thousand. 80 rapidly
did the trains follow each other after night
that there was a continuous crowd passing
through the depot for several hours, and the
amount Of baggage brought kept the en-
ployecs ut work until an carly hour this
morning-thorc being on one train no less
than three hundred pieces. As may be sup
posed, In this great crowd there wero num-
bcrs Of the light-hngercd gentry seeking an
opportunity to ply their vocation, but our
detectives were on the alert, and spotted"
some and prevented them from preying on
the crowd to any extent, although there were
