The streets thus early were crammed with
pedestrians ninety-nine faces out of one
hundred being those Of strangers. The
crowd in this city is undoubtedly larger by
half than on any previous occasion of the
sort but the proportion of ladies Is very
much smaller.

Yesterday Baltimore contributed her full
quota of roughs and plugs, who came In
bv the turnpike and railroad, they were
enabled to travel. Their identity was soon
demonstrated for with their first drinks on
reaching the city they began to belch gu.
their rallying cries, VIGOROUSLY Baltimor-

and they may cause some annoyance De-
fore the city is we'll rid of them.

The procession formed at o'clock this

o'clock moved down by Louisiana avenue
and UP Pennsylvania avenue, passed VIII
lard's Hotel up 18th street, when it coun-
termarched and halted on Pennsylvania
avenue in front of the hotel. The entire

AT WIZARDS.
Early in the forenoon the streets in the
neighborhood of Wizards were crowded by
a large and excited throng, all waiting to
get a peep at the President-elect. The
Presidents Mounted Guard and the George
town Mounted Guard were stationed on
18th street. their left resting on F street.
and MANY amusing incidents occurred
caused bv the efforts of military gentlemen
to keep back the free and independent"
who had come there to see and were not
to be foiled. The crowd seemed to be in a
very good humor, except when some Off
cial trespassed on what they considered
their reserved right when they did not
hesitate to d-n them to unlimited ex
tent About ii o'clock the military formed,
and the hotel presented an animated ap-
pearance-every window being crowded.
little after II o'clock the word was
nassed along the line of infantry on the
avenue and the cavalry on 14th street to
present arms. This was handsomely done.
when the President and President-elect
emerged from the lower Oath street door of
the hotel They were warmly applauded, and

heard not a single remark offensive to the
outgoing or incoming President. This au-
ours we'll for the self-respect OF our cit1-
zens. Mr. Buchanan looked, as usual, dig
nified and at his ease, and Mr.. Lincoln
seemed to bear his honors meekly, and to
he not at all excited by the surgng, sway
ing crowd which surrounded him. Mr.. Blu
chanan's private carriage was first drawn
I'm to the entrance, but from what we
could learn Of the movements going on we
Judge that the Presdent-elect preferred to
make his appearance in an open carriage,
where all could see him, as one was SUBJ
stttuted for Mr.. Buchanan's close carriage.
The President and President-elect took
their seats in the carriage. the military at

same carriage. it moved out to its position
in the line. being preceded by the company
of sappers and miners and flanked on the
right by the Georgetown Mounted Guard
and on the left by the Presidents Mounted
Guard. There was some grumblng at this
ARRANGEMENT, as 1t was almost impossible
to get view Of the President-elect, which

the ma iority of the spectators.
