 Receptions In the East.
 Yonkers, Aug. 17.--Mr. and Mrs. Bry- an to-day left the home of John Bris- ben Walker at Irvington, where they rested over Sunday, and proceeded on their journey to Upper Red Hook, where they will spend about ten days. They will visit Mrs. E. c. Perrine, Mrs. Bryan's old school teacher.
 MT Perrine is we'll known republi- can in his district so the Boy Orator Is getting deeper into the enemy's coun- try Yesterday he was among the gold bugs" He went to church with General Sam Thomas, and in the af- ternoon and evening received calls from a score of MT. Walkers gold bug" neighbors Mir. Sewall left Mir. Walkers house at 8 o'clock and took the train that left for New York at Sill His host accompanied him to the station. None of the populace was on hand to see him off. It was intended last night that MT. Sewall should go up the Hudson with the Bryans, but at a late hour the plan was changed.
 The Bryans left MT. Walkers resi- dence shortly after o'clock and were driven to the station, where about thir- ty persons were waiting on the plat form These persons were waiting for the train, however, and not to see the Boy Orator. There vas no demonstra- ton on the part ef the populace. There was not even cheer. The Iryington people became familiar with MT. Bryan during his brief stay there, so his ap- pearance at the station excited but lit tie comment. A few persons who met him yesterday spoke to him and bade him good bye on the train. The news that MT. and Mrs. Bryan were on the train went from one ear to another, and a dozen or more men left their seats and walked through the cars to get look at them As Bryan sat with his wife, Mir Walker and Mir. Cart wright e few men shook hands with | him and were introduced to Mrs. Bry- an, who greeted them pleasantly Af- ter moments inspection of the party | those in the car lost themselves again in their papers.
 ] At Yonkers fifty men were waiting l for Bryan, and when he got off the 1 train they rushed for him and crowd- ed about him. He shook hands all around and Mrs. Bryan did the same. l There was no cheering. About twenty l men followed him to the dock.
 | Mir. Walker escorted his guests to the 1 boat, which left Yonkers few minutes i before 10 o'clock. When the passen- l gers saw the Boy Orator coming there was a rush for the rail. "Bryan,' 1 Bryan" went over the boat Some l one suggested three cheers for Billy Bryan, and about thirty men set up a l weak cheer. As soon as the party was on board the boat steamed away. There were few cheers from the men on the dock. Mir Bryan declined to discuss l Senator Thursten's letter to Senator | Stewart in reference to the charge that l he was the hired orator of the silver men. He said that it would be answer l ed at the proper time.
 West Point Depot, Aug H.--The Boy | orator had to forego great deal in | giving up the trip on a train that stop- ped at fifteen or twenty towns His disappointment was more than assuag- ed No sooner had the boat started than some one suggested a reception.
 Mir. Bryan is always ready for re- ceptioh. so he posted himself with his wife outside of one of the two parior staterooms that the company had set aside for his use About 300 of the pas l sengers, 90 per cent of whom were wo- men, filed by and shook hands with the | candidate and his wife. This hand shaking occupied about fifteen minutes and the rest of the journey MT. and Mrs. Bryan sat in the pilot house with l Captain OdelL General Manager Ol- colt, who was on the Albany looking after the comfort of MT. and Mrs. Bry- an. explained that the reason the com pany refused to stop the boat at lrv- ington was because there was no dock
 ing place there and it would have beer extremely dangerous to have brought small boat filled with people alongside the steamboat.
 Mir Bryan reached Newburg at 12:3i o'clock. A large crowd was on the dock MT. Bryan was dining, but he came out and bowed.
