would administer TO him the oath of Office.

an impressive manner Mr.. Edmunds admin
istered TO him the oath of Office.
Mr.. Edmunds addressed the Senate In q
few wellohosen words of farewell as its pre-
siding officer, taking occasion, however, to
might be doubted whether Congress could
congratulate itself ON being the best example
OF y Legislative body conducting Its business
with delberation, care and decorum. IL was
the fault Of large bodies that measures
OF great Importance, requiring much time
for proper consideration were brought under
discussion so late, that II was not possible TO
deal with them with intelligence and oonse-
quently they were enacted hastily into Jaws.
He then In warm terms thanked the Senate
and its officers for their courtesy and kind
ness. and retired from the chair.
PRESIDENT ARrHURs PROCLAMATION.
The Chaplin here offered a prayer Of un-
reasonable length, at tho close of which Vice
President Hendricks delivered few opening
remarks In voice which, though low, was
clear and audible. He said u was some years
since he was connected with the Senate, and
| he might not at first be so familiar with the
rules as he should be and would have TO lean

MAJESTY or rHE AMrRIcAS THEORY. Z
| Here was witnessed the majesty of the
Simplest, yet tho srandest; the quietost, yet
the most imposing scene that tho records OF
the world can show.
The Chief Ruler OF great Nation resigned
| his power, laid down his sceptre and returned
| TO private life without murmur or perhaps
thought otherwise. His successor mod.
estly took up the relns OF authority and
quietly assumed the sovereignty delegated
him by the voice of his follows.
Such scene was never witnessed in any
other country. The spectacle was a grand
one. The immense platform built out from
the central portico, was literally packed with
representative men In front, stretching from
the extreme northern TO the extreme south.
ern limits OF the Capitol building, and east
ward from the porticO to Fifth or Sixth
streets, southeast, the crowd was packed
closely together.
MAGNIFICENT sIdHr. '
Atleast l5O,UO0 people were there. II was a
sight the magnitude OF which has never be-
fore been witnessed IN Washington. s
Il was 1880 when the Pre'dent-elect, ac-
companled by President Arthur, was escorted

10000 people caught sight OF him the air, for
