THE LITERARY EXERCISES.
4 Multitude Of People Look on with
Great Interest.

New YORK, April S0.-In front OF the
platform of the sub Treasury building,
where the literary exercises connected
with the centennial celebration took
place. sea of heads greeted the eye,
and an about the spot, from Broadway
10 William street, and as far as one could
see dOwF Broad street, eager, thronging
humanity was packed The special
stand from which The speakers
addressed The people was built
directly in front of the statue
of Washington, which stood ma
iestically forth above all. Washington S
statue itself stands in bowerof national
c0lOrs and devices One especially no.
tceable feature Of the decorations is a
large presidential flag sent from Wash
ingtOn. where il was made for the occa-
sion at the Navy Department. The flag
is 10 bv II feet, and is artistcally draped
on the front of the building.
While the services in ST. Pauls Chapel
were being held Tie Twenty second
Regiment band, under the leadership Of
Patrick :. Gilmore, gave a concert at the
sub-Treasury. The band began the pro-
gramme at about Q clock, and continued
until the literary exercises commenced.
The President and his party were due at
10 o'clock, but il was a little later when
thew arrived. The literary committee
escorted the President from 81. Pauls
down Broadway to Wall, and down TO
the sub-Treasury.
As the Presidents carriage passed
along the crowded thorOughiare the
waiting multitude on ibe sidewalks
cheered again and again, until his way
seemed To- be a triumphant proe ession
greeted with one prolonged roar OF
cheers. The President reception at the
sub-Treasury was most enthusiastic.
As soon As Gilmore caught sight of.the
Presidents carriage he lifted his baton
and the full Tweniy-sec)nd Regiment
band played "llail TO the Chief During
the playing of this the President alighied
and was escorted TO his seat on the plat
form. The members of his Cabinet
grouped themselves about him, and the
other invited guests were seated near.
As soon as all we're arranged and quiet
was gained Mr. Elbridge !. Gerry,
chairman of the committee on literary
exercises. stepped TO the front OF the
platform and addressed the assembly.
The Rev. Dr. Richard = Storrs then
made an impressive prayer. lie con

pie, we must needs own. conferred upon
him his divine right 10 rule. All the
more, therefore, because the circum-
stances of his era were 80 little like our
own. We need 10 recall his image, and
if we may. not only TO commemorate but
TO reproduce his virtues. The traits
which in him shonc pre.eminont as our
own Irving has described than iirmncss,
sagaciy, an unmOyable justice courage
that never faltered and most of all truth
that disdaincd all articles These are
characteristics in her leaders, of which
the nation was never in more dire need
than now Such was the hero, leader,
ruler, patriot. whom we gratefully re-
member on this day. We may not repro
duce his age. his young environment, nor
him. But none the less we may rejoice
that once he lived and led the people
led them and ruled them prudenily. like
Him, that kingly ruler and shepherd Of
whom the psalmist sang, With all his
power God give us the grace to prize
his grand example and, as we may in our
more modest measure, 90 reproduce his
virtues
The service concluded with the reces-
siOnal hymn.
The Presidential party was then es-
cOrled by the ycstry 10 the West porch.
where the President was received by the
Centennial Literary Committee. The
