LINcoLN.s FlRsT INAUGURATION
Fears Of Els Assassination, and He Was
Carefully Guarded.

Eears OF Els Assassination, and BE Wa
Carefully Guarded.
Regular troops were posted at inter
7als along Pennsylvania avenue.
Sharpshooters were climbing over the
roofs Of the houses. "A mounted officer
at every corner was ready to report to
Gen. Scott the passage Of the process
sion. Detectives il plain clothes
squirmed through the masses Of peo-
pie. The policemen had been instruct
ed to arrest for 'disorderly conduct"
any person who called Mr. Lincoln an
opprobrious name or uttered disloyal
sentiment. There was much suppressed
excitement, and the prophetic word
assassination" was in every mind.
President Buchanan, whose term ex-
pired at noon, was engaged until half
an hour later in signing the bills that
had been hurriedly passed, but the
congressional clock had been put back
TO legalize the transaction. At last ne
drove down to Wizards and the pro
-eession was formed. The president
and president-elect rode in an open
barouehe; but this confidence in the
people was more apparent than real.
On the front seat were Senators Baker
and Pearce; a guard of honor of the
regular cavalry surrounded the car
riage; beyond were mounted marshals
four files deep. From the sidewalks
no one could accurately distinguish
Mr. Lincoln, Close behind marched
regiments Of regulars and marines,
fully armed. It seemed more like es-
eorting a prisoner to his doom than a
president to his Inauguration. Little
cheering and no enthusiasm greeted
the procession. Every now and then
an arrest for disorderly conduct was
quickly and quietly made in the crowd.
The sunshine was bright, but the
whole affair was as gloomy as if Mr..
Lincoln were riding through an en-
emy's cOuntry-as, indeed, he was. -
