WashingtOn's Inauguration.

The people of the City of New York
are already preparing for the celebration
of the hundredth anniversary of General
Washington's Inauguration as President
of the nited tates, which occurred on
the 10Th of April, 1899.
New York was then a city of about
thirty thousand inhabitants, and occupied
only the lower extremity of Manhattan
Island. Trinity Church was regarded as
being cup town." and the rest of h
island was pure country farms
and neutrality-suspicious., with here and there
villa Of some prctensions to elegance.
Nevertheless, the committee having
the coming festival in charge will find it
difficult to equal the brilliant and be-
coming pageant which the men of 1888
arranged for the reception of the Presi-
dcnt-clcct, or the impressive ceremonial
which accompanied his taking the oath.
Washing on Irvings description of
them, in the fourth volume of his
biography Of The Father of his Country,
is written with peculiar warmth and
fiuency. for the author was a boy six
years of age when the Inauguration oc-
cured, and may have witnessed some of
its striking scenes. He could remember
being presented TO the President by his
nurse, as a child who bore the name of
Washington, and he could recall the
thrill Of pleasure which he experienced
when the great man placed hand upon
his head.
The New YORK committee could, no
doubt, find suggestions in Irving's glow
ing narrative The water pageant was
mcmorably fine. At lilizabethport, IN
New Jersey fifteen miles from the city,
the Committee of Congress met General
Washington, and conducted him to his
scat on "a splendid barge" built for that
great day, and manned by thirteen mas
tcr-pilots in white uniforms, commanded
by Commodore James Nicholson, re-
nowned for his gallantry and enterprise
in the Revolutionary War.
Other barges followed, draped in col
'rs, and as they moved along the pro
cession of boats continually increased IN
number, until a grand flotilla swept on
toward the city, saluted as it passed By
Every vessel anchored in the harbor
One joyous ,noment Irving describes as
though he had seen 1t from the window
Of his fathers house. Amid the general
gaycty and enthusiasm, while from every
ship came the sound OF martial music or
the thunder of great guns. one vessel
was silent and did not display single
Tag.
This was the s parish man-of war Gal

rated until the Presidents barge was
