panied by Messrs. Flanders and Pcase and
the correspondents and other gentlemen Of
the party, occupied the other carriages. In
this order they were driven rapidly through
fremont, and Court streets to the Revere
Housc. The busy multitudcs aloilg the
streets, being attracted by the sight Of the
wcllskttown hat and head, turned and gazed
after the swiftly moving carriages. Well,
IN he darned," one representative iattkCe
was heard to say, in the accepted stage idiom
OF New England, "ef amt seen chat fellow
afore," and he thought for an instant then,
slapping the pocket of his star-spangled
breechts; he leapcd two feet In the air and
shouted
lEs,. "BY COL; IRIS OLD GREELEY"
He'tsas ksidtttly in town for the Fourth,
and felt he had already got his moneys
worth. Atthe Revere Hottie Mt. Greeley
and party were received III the private par
Tor, where the Bird Club usually hold its
meetings, by AfhSur CASTOR and Councilman
Pickering, Il obinson, BRITT. and Shepherd.

ctaS:hafhiiier coat, with white vest, and re-
turned to The iarior, where he informally re-
ceiveti d few ftrsonf,I rfieiids. Among these

Massachusetts, and who is ali uiiswefvitis
Grant man; and Mr.. L. w. Bird, Il famous
Radical efeti III this stronghold of famous
Radicals, the godfather Of the Bird Club, and
most genial old gentleman, who, with hts
high collar and stock and higil-ncckcd coat,
looks like tlfe picture of Old Hickory on the
currency stamps, aid number of other dis
tinyuishcd Bostonians.

THE BREAEFAsT PhSsEr
i'm desultory conversation, and at its close Mr.:
Greeley was taken in carriage TO see some
Autographs Of himself. He will visit the jul
bilec at O'Clock. The weather is charming,
being bright but comparatively cool. All
Boston is on the streets conycrging towards
the Coliseum, and If Mr.. Greeley Is at all
popular ut the Hub he will doubtless hear it
from the thousands Of Threats that will greet
him i'll the great lrnjandruln.
The party took lunch ut o'clock, and ut
hall-past 2, half an hour before the jubilee
commenced, they were driven in open car
riages to the great building.
AT THE PRESS HEADQUARTERS.
They entered by way of the press head
quarters, where about Il hundred representa-
tivcs of the press, both men and women, of
all the country, were engaged. They looked
up in establishment ut the entrance OF the
later Franklin into their midst. They re-
covered their senses, however, in moment,
and made great hurrah over the diSlin-
@lisl,cd guest. The Boston digiiitarics
could not restrain them, and they seized
hold of the Philosopher One lady pressed
a bouquet into his hand, which he continued
to carry all through the day, sporting with it
rs gracefully rs a premiere danSc"se. In
reply to the demands of the press men he
mounted rostrum hear the end of thcroom
and spoke.
OVERWHELMING UPROAR AND APPLAUSE.
He was dressed in his black alpaca coat,
his claw-hammcr having Disguised him early
in the day with its uncomfortable weight,
and wore Il modified Dolly Warden vest. His
nrcktic showed little unreasonable amhi'
ton to climb into his left car, but otherwise
he was f,uItlcSsiy arraycd. He carried hi,
the other. As nc appeared. people rose
throughout the whole extent OF the vast
building, little spcckS in fai'-otf corners sud
denly rising iuto dininutyc men and women
and the whole restless sea Of human faces
seeming to rise like Il tide, two and three feet
ut jump. Most of the people stood upon
benches and chcered; others clappcd theil
lunds. The eleven thousand unprotected
females in the chorus, their jaws being tired
ont with singing and eating gingerbread
could only 1lulter tteir handkerchicls
70 all these demonstrations the champion
Wood-CEopper of C.:appGqla made low bows
smiling with happiness, and flirting his boll
quet with the grace of ballet Sirl. The
committeeman had done their reception bust
ness well /; but they placed the Greeley party
in so far that it was hot and uncomfortable Il
tue feet, and rather too low for Il good view
Mr.. Greeley had to move his neck right ant
left to get Il view OF the more popular sing
ers. In his immediate ncighborhood, ant
accompanying hin, were Patrick Donahu'
of the Boston Pilot, Alderman jerks
Francis w. Beard, Bishop Simpson of Phila
deiphia, Theodore Triton, Jesse Fonda, ant
the committee OF reception.
TIE PHILOSOPHERS TASTE FOR MUSIC.
The Philosopher discovered on this occ;l
sion taste for mtlsica strong rs his passion
for wood-chopping. When Madame Peschk;l
Lclltner came on and sang an aria to ono
VcnZano's grand waltzes he WAS SO i'm
pressed that he borrowed an opelsl-slaSs from
Bishop Simpson, threw his gold spectacle:
upon his forehead and surveyed the strong
lunged soneStrcsS with untliSguiScd admir;i
ton for many seconds. When the lriSl
National Band (3 played he clappcd hi
hands and showed his handsome teeth il
evident delight. During the Intervals be
tween the pieces the crowd would cheer hin
and hurIah, and he would rise to hi
feet and bow. At every interval the cheer
ing would be repeated, and crowds woutt
rise in their seats and press over The seats tt
get near to him. OLD gray-headed mel
would lead their boys up to look ut him, ant
one could imagine them sayinS, "See, IN,
boy; observe that great man. Let his lift
he 4 model for your OWL"
