ALBANY, \. Y, Oct. 27.-Gov. Cleveland
and party left Albany according to pro-
gramme at 10 o'clock this forenoon. At 9:15
the Albany Phalanx, the representative Dem
ocratic organization of the city, preceded by
the Albany City band, proceeded from their
headquarters to the executive mansion for
the purpose of escorting the governor 10 the
depot Great enthusiasm was manifested
all along the streets through which the pro-
cession passed. The Phalanx pa
raded 13O strong, and were attired
in dark clothes and overcoats and high white
hats. Each member carried a cane and
wore on the lapel of his overcoat a large
phaanx badge. On arriving at the executive
mansion they found quite a crowd assem-
bled, despite the early hour and the drizzling
rain. Gov. Cleveland, accompanied by Adjt.
Gen. Jno. G.. Farusworth, Gen. Charles
Tracy and Hon. Simon w. Rosendale, entered
a close carriage in waiting and fell in behind
the phalax which took up the route of march
for the West Shore railroad depot. The
streets, especially Broadway and Maiden
lane, were thronged with people, who re-
peatedly cheered tine procession passed
aloug. When the Cleveland carriage, ac-
compsnied by Gen. Farnsworth, Gen. Tracy
and RoseDdale, arrived at the depot,
the throng passed around him
and it was with difficulty that
the governor forced his way through the
hat in hand, and repeatedly acknowledged
the kindly greetings. He appeared in ex-
cellent health and spirits. The train was
the regular West Shore express, leaving
Albany at 9:55, but it was fifteen minutes
later before it started out Of the station amid
the cheers of the Assem- bled thousands. As
the train proceeded at slow speed through
the streets, the crowds cheered Justify. At
several points in the lower wards the enthu-
siastic Democrats had brought out their
cannon, which belched forth a sonorous God
speed. As the train passed by the large
manufacturing establishments In the lower
wards the workmen appeared in the streets
and in the windows and waived an adieu.
At one point the worlingmen assem- bled,
and two of their number held up large pic
ture of Cleveland and Hendricks, while they
and their fellows cheered enthusiastically.
The first stop was at Selkirk, but only for a
moment
At Coyemans junction stop of FIVE min
utes WAS made.
for the purpose of switching on a car from
the west train. At this point 200 persons
had collected from the neighboring sections
and chcered Justify, while band stationed
in one Of the rear cars played stirring music.
The governor did not appear except at the
car window.
A stop of only second was made at Cox
sake, and here a large crowd had congre-
gated
Newburg was reached at , $50 aud the train
pulled up in front of the station amid the
booming OF cannons aud the screaching Of
whistles of vessels in the harbor. There was
an immense concourse of people in and
about the station, and before the train came
to stop general rush was made FOR the
rear ear, upon the platform of which GOV.
Cleveland stood with uncovered head.
Here also handshaking was continued as
long as the train remained, which was
scarcely five minutes, aud the governor was
repeatedly and enthusiastically cheered. The
demonstration as whole was most impoS-
ing one.
At Highlands, where brief stop was
made, Mayor Haynes and Alderman O'Con-
nor, Of Newark, boarded the train. Brief
stops were also made at Cornwall, West
Poiut, Haverstrsw and Crauston.
At HaNerstraw great preparations had been
made to receive the governors train, and
Gheu it arrived, at 9:45 p. m, il seemed as
though the whole population of the towu had
turned out. The depot was tsstcfully deco
rated from one end to the other with flags,
streamers and Cleveland and Hendricks
notices. At every point of vantage, both in
the depot and surrounding bills, ladies waved
an enthusiastic welcome, canuous were fred
in rapid succession aud men shouted TO the
top of their lungs. when the train came e
stop crowd of several thousand people
surged around the platform Of the rear car
each apparently determined to grasp the
governor by the hand. Cleveland was intro
duced by Congressman Beach as''the presen
governor and next president, whereat th'
crowd set up a Wild cheering. The governor
made no remorks. Democratic club il
uniform was also in attendance, and the
band which accompanied them played
lively air, adding to the din. The train re
mRined there but five minutes, and N oveC
out amid loud cheering.

In the few minutes that elapsed before th,
