 the Cheers of the Populsce In Greeting
 the wearers of the BIae-Tho Rush Will
 Begin In Earnest To-Day.
 Pittsburg. Sept. 9.-The arriving hosts of the c. A. R. played havoc to-day with Pittsburg's reputation as a lat ter day champion of the Purttanical Sabbath. In the morning the strains of "The Star Spangled Banner" March ing Thro' Georgia" and "Auld Lang Syne" rang out on the air, mingling with the chimes of old Trinity as they summoned the worshippers to the doxology, while 1t is to be feared that many pulpit exhortation was tenn porarily drowned tonight by the cheers of the populace in greeting the boys in blue from all points.
 The in-pour commenced soon after day-break. when a Pennsylvania train of six sections brought in the advance guard of the department delegations from California, Montana, Nebraska. Wisconsin, Illinois and Indiana. Not withstanding the early hour detach- ment of the National Guard, with an ample representation of the citizens reception committee, was in waiting, and the western veterans were escorted to their respective headquarters with honor and dispatch. Throughout the morning and afternoon the regular trains were packed with visitors, although the bulk of the solid delega- tions are not booked to arrive until to- morrow.
 The department of the Potomac ar rived tonight and headed by the Old Guard in the big fur shakes, marched down Smithfield street amid frantic cheers from the crowd that packed the thoroughfare. The first arrivals of the Michigan contingent, who came in lit tie later, met with an equally good re ception. So did the various posts from the surrounding points in Pennsylvania and Ohio. In point of numbers the ar rivals to-day were fully up to expecta- tions.
 Tomorrow the rush will be on in earnest. If there is man, woman or child in Pittsburg or Alleghany tonight who does not possess gorgeous badge declaring for Louisville as the location for the next encampment, it is his or her own fault. To-day the small army of Louisville citizens committee have been scattering them like snowflakes,
