 ST. ALBANs, Vt, Aug. 25.-The train bearing President Harrison and party left Saratoga at S:30 o'clock this morning. Short and felicitous speeches were made at all stops until this city was reached. At Castleton the train began moving while the president was speaking. A shower of bouquets, golden rod and sweet pea blos- soms were thrown after him, many falling short of the mark upon the track At Rutland General Veazey of Rutland and Aldace F. Walker of Chicago joined the party. The train reached Brandon at 1:15 and ex-Governors Ormsbee and J. w. Stewart and G. c. Benedict of Burlington and c. c. Forbes of St. Albans entered the car.
 On arrival of the train at Middlebury the throng was large, and great enthusiasm was manifested. Ex-Governor Stewart in- troduced the president.
 At Middlebury the reception committee from Vergennes, consisting of J. K. Hines, J. D. Smith aud Herrick Stevens were re- ceived by the president. When the train arrived at Vergennes the crowd was in joyful mood, the influence of which upon the president was reflected in his speech. Being introduced by Mir. Proctor he said: My 1 have had as you know from the end of train. But it has seemed to me, this morning that these Vermont towns are travelled travel % %tLaughterI Perhaps Per % it s' is because se your state is not very large and you have had to y put your M t, towns close together in order to get esting story of the origin of this city of Yer gennes. suppose it was one of the earliest in- stances in the history of our country, if not the very first, of city being constructed upon paper before it was built upon the ground. [Laughter.[ That has come to be quite familiar practice in these late days of speculation, but it is singular that city charter and the ample corporate limits of one mile square should have been given to se1re fS h af the all the thoughts of Ethan Allan ana and his contem- n state and in the richer glory and higher greatness of the nation of which you are part.
 At 12:46 Burlington was reached. Sen ator Edmunds, Mayor Hazletor, Seward Webb and committee of citizens met the president Carriages were in waiting and the party was driven to the home of Sena- tor Edmunds, where luncheon was served. Among the guests of Senator Edmunds were the president and his party, ex-Min- s. Cannon, G. G. Benedict, Mayor Hazle- ton of Burlington, General Beck, MT. Proc tor, ex-Governor Stewart, B. B. Smalley, E. 0. Smith, w. Seward Webb, Aldace F. Walker, General William Wells, ex-Gov- ernor Woodbury, c. w. Woodhouse, Gen eral J. G. Mccullough and Elias Lyman.
 After lunche ,n the president was taken to the public square, where the people were packed in mass. Advancing to a small platform he was introduced by Mayor Hazleton and spoke briefly.
 Great enthusiasm existed everywhere in Burlington, and every building wore some emblem of patriotic welcome. After concluding his speech, during the delivery of which Senator Edmunds held an um- brella over him to screen him from the direct rays of the sun, the president re- entered his carriage and the procession made it's way to the landing, where boats were taken and the party were rowed out upon Lake Champlain to Seward Webb's yacht Elfrida. which lay about two hun dred feet from shore. When the presi- dent reached the yacht presidential sa- lute was fired by the crew and like sa- lute was fired on shore. Promptly on | schedule time, 3:30 p. m,. the yacht began | to move, amid great cheering from the l crowd on shore. The object for landing was l Mauquam on the eastern shore of Lake | Champlain, but detour of ten miles was | made, thus extending the trip by water to l fifty miles. The water was unusually rough and the wind was strong from the northwest. All sat on deck, the president reclining easily in chair on the starboard side of the ship in the stern. He greatly enjoyed the exhiliaration of the trip and viewed the scenery of the Green Noun, tains on one side and the Adirondacks or the other with much interest. The Elfrids reached Mauquam at 6:30. The special, which continued on it's way from Burling ton to Mauquam met the party at the lat ter point and proceeded to St. Albans. Ar irving here at 7:10 throng of people were waiting at the station.
 The presidential party were taken il carriages to Governor Smiths house o1 the bluffs about three quarters of mil, from the station. Chinese lanterns, jus lighted, surrounded almost every resi- dence. The picturesque town seemed ik one vast illuminated park. Every build ing was decorated. Thousands of person were massed on the sidewalks. Here an' there were groups of little girls dressed il national coiors, who waved their brett salutations to the, president The seen was striking and splendid.
