A""so VI people Collected on the street, an av-
! enue Tor the procession being with difficulty
obtained. AS the marquis with the princess
passed the cheering was immense, and was
evidently much appreciated by the happy
pair, as they were exceedingly gracious and
apparently we'll pleased. In Victoria square.
kandegode street, Beaver hall and Dor
chester street, right to the doors of Windsor
hotel, there was an uninterrupted mass of
people, whilst the windows as we'll as the
roofs of houses were crowded with shouting
loyal subjects.
At intervals along the route various regi-
ments OF militia were placed and as the
governor general passed he received mill
tary salute. When passing Bonaventure
street countless flowers were poured down
upon the vice regal party amid loud cheers
OF the multitude. This arch, the most at
tractive erected, had battlements painted in
imitation of stone, which contrasted exquis-
ltely with its wide expanse of green and
gold. Over the centre was emblazoned,
"Welcome," and above it was an Illuminated
coat of arms Of the city.
Passing into Victoria square the fine
bronze statue Of her majesty came into full
view and excited smile of grateful recogni-
ton from both the princess and her husband.
On passing up Beaver hall, where several
Protestant churches are situated, the party
were greeted with the national anthem, first
by the Zion church choir and next by some
GOO Sunday school children, who were as
sembled on the platform at st. Andrews
Presbyterian church. The iIlustrious visi-
tors we're deeply touched by this exhibition
Of juvenile loyalty. St. Andrews church
was handsomely decorated with everg reens
AMI with the word "Welcome'' in English
and Gaelic. Standing out in bold relief at
the intersection of Dorchester with Beaver
hall, the Montreal Lacrosse club had impro-
vised an arch. A large number of
members of the lacrosse and snow
shoe clubs, dressed in their peculiar
costumes, were clustered on top of the arch,
and added much to its picturesqueness A
massive and highly artistic crown in ever
green's was suspended across the street, and
was conspicuous object on the scene. Along
Dorchester street the crowd became more
tightly packed, until the area around the ho-
tel was living mass. A small but artistic
arch, erected by the CALIFORNIAN society close
to the hotel, was handsomely decorated with
flags, and as the vice-regal party drew nigh,
two Scotch pipers, in full Highland costume,
appropriately struck up the "CampbelIs are
Coming" the strains of which, however,
were almost drowned by the multitude.
AS the carriage with the august pair drove
up to the hotel perfect ovation was accord
ed by the people Who, in their eagerness
to do honor to the occupants, trenched al
most on rudeness in pressing forward. The
police arrangements were imperfect at this
point and the attempt by the marquis tt; adj
dress some complimentary words to the
military authorities, was interrupted by the
uproar of the surging crowd. The marquis
and princess alighted from the carriage and
were escorted into the hotel, where they were
shown to their magnificent quarters.
The troops who were on duty, 5000
in number. consisted of the Prince of Wales
rifles, the Garrison artillery, Engineers, Fifth
and Sixth fusileers, Fifth and Sixth battalion
and Montreal cavalry. AS the various regi-
ments passed in review before the hotel, the
marquis expressed his admiration of the
1ne military bearing and soldierly qualities
Of the entire force, which was under the
of Sir Silly Smith.
After the military display was ended the |!
crowds began to disperse, but the whole af-
Eernoon witnessed throngs of holiday people
moving through the streets patiently await
ing the evening illumination.
All the superior court Judges, foreign con-
suls and members o. the Dominion cabinet
we're present during the proceedings in the
depot, but none of them were formally pre-
sented. An audience will be given the for
eign consuls tomorrow in theWindsor hotel.
The princess, to-day, wore a black satin
mantle, trimmed with sable, with bonnet to
match. She looked exceeding well. and is
the handsomest of her majesty's
daughters. Lord Lorne was in morning
