Ia GRADUALLY changed from simple informal
c,eetinr TO Mr. Blaine by q few hundred friends to
a Grand spontaneous welcome from the Republican
marty Of this and other cities and States was mani

Of ndcinitcncss about some features of the parade
INIT enough has been determined upon to enable
one TO get fair idea of the reception down the
hay and the review in the city.
TIE RECEPTION At QUARANTINE.
These as has already been announced, will take
Mace on separate days. Unless something uneX-
neced happens Mr. Blaine will arrive in the lower
hay on Wednesday morning. The Associated Press
station at Fire Island will give notice of the City of
New-York's appearance that the news will be
known here about three hours before the vessel
reaches Quarantine As it is high water about
$50 a. m. Wednesday, there is no reason fo- any
detention unless the steamer is considerably be-
hind time, something that is altogether unlikely.
The Starin steamboat Sam Sloan which has
been placed at the disposal OF the Republican Clubs
Reception committee, Will DC lying AT ioi ~ i0'
North River from daylight on Wednesday She
has been reserved for the members Of the Club, the
National Republican Committee, the officials of
The National Republican League, the Republican
State and County Committees officials Of the Union
Tcarue Club. and a number of invited guests,
incIndinr Levi p Morton, Senator Evarts eX-Sena-
TOR Warner Miller Governor Foraker Of Ohio, and
Senator Quay The Sam Sloan VII Carry 800 pco-
Me but to avoid all overcrowdng the Committee
will only take about half that number Other steam
boats may accompany the Sloan. but the idea OF
a naval parade has been abandoned, owing to the
fact that suitable boats could not be obtained By
the various clubs.
If the CITY of New-York arrives as expected the
Sam Sloan will start from her pier at IL a. M and
90 down 10 Quarantine. Health Officer Smith
win be on board and as the Custom House authorl-
ties have offered Mr.. Blaine the courtesics Of the
Port there will be nothing to prevent him and his
family from going Immediately from the City OF
New York 10 the Sloan. lie Will be welcomed
oil board the steamboat by President Bartlett OF
the Republican Club
The Sloan will then come back TO the city The
place where it will land will not be made known
until the morning of Mr. Blaine's arrival and then
only to those on board the steamboat This Is
done to avoid crowd at the pier. From the piar
Mr. Blaine will be taken directly to the hotel
p-csunablv the Fifth Avenue, where he usually
stays VIXEN in town.
In the evening he Will be serenaded by sew
eral workin glnen's societies and other organlZa-
tons and it is hopd that he will make speech.
The parade itself VIII take rlaee Oh the following
night All the details of this procession have not
yet been arranged nor is it likely that they VIII
be until the final day. new clubs are constantly
reporting and asking for places IN the line. ms
however, is the general plan of the march: The
head of the line will rest at Fifth-ave and
- Fifty-ninth-st, moving from this POINT down ohe
avenue past Mt. Blaine the reviewing stand
which Will be erected to-day at the Worth Monu-
mont The various portions Of the parade viii
form in the side streets east and west but III
which rardcular thoroughfare each division Will
assemble can only be made known by special
orders from the Grand Marshal tomorrow or next
day The different divisions will not be deslg-
mated numerically, but by such names as the
Pennsylvania division, the Brooklyn DIVISION
the New-England division, the Republican Nation
al League division the Veterans division, ETC.
etc, so that every one can understand at once
who compose them.
ONE OF TWO DIVISIONS WILL LEAD
General Jackson has not decided which division
will lead the line following Immediately behind
the Grand Marshal and his staff. but it Will be
either the Republican Club the Pennsylvania
division The reason for selecting the keystone
State men would be that it is understood that
they want to go home that night and by being
first they can get OIL in time; They VIII mafci
past the stand and keep right on down 10 lIt
Desbrosses or the CortiandG ST. ferry, anS
