ADDRESS.
The tide of people that flowed to the capitol
to hear the inaugural address vas a perfect
food. Without and within that building all
was animation and bustle trswds of people
not fortunate enough to secure tickets of adj
mission to the senate lounged about, as if adj
mission were to be won by waiting. The
number of passes issued, however, was not
small, each senator receiving five and each
representative two. As soon as the doors
were opened the galleries of the senate rapidly
filed. Many holding tickets to the senate
wing, but not to the galleries, filed the wings
and corridors. The military organizations
assembled in the cross streets about the Capt.
tol park, where they remained while the pres
ident elect delivered his inaugural address.
