Rufus Holmes, president of the Hurlhurt National bank, and the wife of MT. James Welch, of the firm of Welch Bros, both of whom died the same day, was very largely attended.

 - 1he Election Pardde.-A long train of cars wheeled into the stations of the west ern end of the Conn. Western road We'd nesday morning, taking on three or four more cars at Canaan, but until the train arrived at Winsted, the passengers for the excursion in the nine or ten.cars could have easily and comfortably been seated in three. The train arrived in Hartford, with twenty six cars, all welt filled, (exoept thirteen or fourteen of thenil and a little late Had the fact that tickets for the round trip could be bought for one fare, been generally known, a full turnout from this end of the road would have been the result. A few 6xs bills is indeed ecoasonaiea1 advertising, in one way of viewing it, but they will not take such train of Western. Connecticut into Hart ford, as was taken by Conductor Eggleston on his excursion trip last summer. > ii
 The trains on other roads came into the city heavily loaded, and more particularly so were those on the Hartford, Providence & Fishkill road train after. train coming in, loaded their full length to repletion. On such an occasion Superintendent McManas is always equal to the emergency, and be- ing well prepared and advertised, was amp. ly rewarded.

Many of the stores and dwellings along the route were elegantly decorated for the occasion, and everything and everybody seemed to vie with all else to make general and grand good time. At II o'clock the First Regiment formed upon the Park, and soon after the Second Regiment, which had assembled on State and Main. street, joined them and the line was formed ready for review. The Cover nor and Staff were escorted to the Park at noon, where they were welcomed by na- tional salute. After the Governor had re viewed the troops the line was formed which consisted of 8 platoon of police 1; two companies of Horse Guards of 13O men twenty-four companies of infantry QiS5 men).; His Excellency, Governor h. gersoll in an open four horse carriage, ac- companied by ex-Gov. Jewell; Brig. Gen. Crawford and staff, 9th Regt c. N. O.. :; First section, light artillery of New Brit ain; Lieut.. Governor and State officers |; Speakers of the House; ex-Governors and Governors of other States invited guests i; Sheriff and deputies; Judges of Court i; members of the Senate and House of Rep resentatives !; City Government; citizens.
 The troops were ably handled, and evinced laudable amount of correct training, and save the scientific twist ofathe Manchester company of infantry, who came around into line once, that very cor rectly resembled an OK yoke, not flaw was discovered in their department. There were nine bands and four drum corps in the procession. The American Band, of Provi. dence attracted most attention. Their music was much admired. Colts Band also played unusually well, and altogether the music was in keeping with the occa- sion, and as we said toward the commence ment of this account, the celebration of the inauguration of our chief state executive was indeed brilliant success We shall publish whole or part of the address next week.
