samneted swept from che White House grounds
into Psnnsy5vania-a then for the first time he
saw the dome Of the National Capitol looming
above the haze mile away. Beside him sat
the commanding figure OF President Arthur,
serene amid disappointments and premonitions
Of inpending desth. since verified, and acquitted
IN the minds and hearts Of his countrymen Of
arranging the pitfalls which brought about the
downfall of his party.
Then. as to-day; vast multitude Of jabilant
shareholders in political Triumph had gathered
~ witness its fulAlment, but 1t was the cause
ara NOT the leader that aroused their enthusiasm
ana satisfied their iongines. The element of
aoection, Of personal devotion, Of admiration
for 4 great part wen played and great services
faithfully rendered, could not enter into the
demonstrations which hailed the fruition Of hopes
hong deferred. And through an appeared the un-
welcome evidences of SoBd South once more
in the saddle, and many symptoms of popular
chagrin and distrust.
To-day, the reioicings ever the restoration of
the xreat party Of loyalty and progress have
found constant stimulus in the elevation Of
the gallant soldier, the skilfu party leader, the
wise statesman, the steadfast patriot the student

which President Cleveland and his successor were
swiftly transported to their earliest destination

years ego, marred by the uncongenial elements
and, vet thereby rendered in some respects still

and the generous spaces which border and in
frinee upon the driveway were oyerhung with

and point fiuttered the simple but patriotic decora-
sion Of flags and bunting.

fortunate as 10 acquire share Of the very limited
space allotted to the distinguished multitude, hao
previously witnessed the last throes OF an expir-
ing session. which, it must be said, died with ul-
precedented ease and eomposure. They had seen
the hands of the venerable clock turned back, noo
once. but thrice. hy the hands Of the still more
venerable Bassete from solar to Senatorial time
and various other picturesque and suggestive IN
oidents had made the hours Of waiting short But
