Qmud Parade of Fifty TboiUNiad Stromr, tttm Maratilng MmM Knvlewed Uf Ceav Mtantler-lH-Ohlef A I iter, Fwlilnut HrrUH, (attaerwl HhIIw imhI Other K1Um. Rohtox, Aug. 19. As early as six 'look this morning many veterans were already about the streete, and orowda of people had lxgun to arrive in town and to appear oh th thoroughfare in holiday attire. Kvery regular train and nuay special ones arriving bring more than their quota of passengers, and, with the veterans and their Imiliea, the estimate that lOO.QOe atrangsrs will ho In the city to-day, is not eons id u red extravagant. The arrangements are perfect and every thing points to a moat successful demonstration. General Alger lias appointed Comrade John Kyan, of Newton, to bear the headquarters standard in the procession. Mr. Ryan lias seen fourteen years consecutive military service in the United States ami wan with Custer and Reno ami Reno's division when the massacre at Little Dig Horn occurred. 'Hie influx of veterans continued the entire nightt and until the small hours the street were simply packed with humanity. This morning long special trains wore stretching back from all the depots awaiting an opportunity to run in and unload their living freight of visiting Grand Array poets and sightseers. lteforo eight o'clock the roar of canwen from the fleet in the harbor announced that the Dispatch, with Secretary Tracy, Vice-President Morton and -General Sherman on board, was coming up the bay, and half an hour later another salute announced hur arrival in tho harbor. The distinguished gentlemen wore escorted to tfce Vcndome, and subsequently Secretary Tracy and Vicepresident Morton to their seats on the Presidential reviewing stand at Coopley's Square. President Harrison breakfasted at the Vendome early. Shortly before nine o'clock he received the Governor and Stale delegation, and the party took carriages nnd rode over a portion of the parade route to view the decorations. The President was driven through Dartmouth street. Columbus avenue. Chester Park, Washington and ltoylstett streets to Cooplev Square, whero he took his place on the reviewing stand and was soon surrounded by many other notable gentlemen. During the carriage rldo the President was the recipient of many expressions of good will and respect from the crowds along the way. Ih the meantime tho formation of the great parade was accomplished with all possible dispatch on Commonwealth aveHue. Departments wore moving in parallel streets until opposite 'their proper places and coming into position through aide streets. The Common and streets adjacent thereto were black with narehlng hosts, while many thousands ef spectators witnessed the maneuvers from the public garden and every other pet in the neighborhood where 'apace eould he procured. i Jit least an hour before the parade m Vo start the windows and balconies of houses along tho line of march and rows of seats which had been erected en every available space were well filled with an expectant multitude, immense truck wagons, with seats arranged in tiers upon them, were backed up at the junction of all side streets and seats sold at high priees at all places. The sidewalks, particularly on Washington street, ifrem Chester Park, two miles down to Adams Square, contained a surging ttaaae of humanity. The vast crowds -would have been an inspiring sight in tthe absence of the more imposing one ffurnished by the marching hosts. There wm unexpected delay In the formation tr the column, owing to the lateness of the arrival of delegations from suburban places and the difficulty of massing ao large a body of men in such narrow quarters. The line moved shortly after eleven o'clock with nearly fifty thousand men in the ranks. The naval division counted up over 1 throe thousand, and the Sons of Veterans some fifteen hundred more. An interesting feature ef the procession was the Old Guard of "Washington which formed the armed escort for the Department of the Potomac. G. A. U. The veterans were enthusiastically applauded as the line moved from block to block. At 3:30 p. in. twelve States had Kissed, and those marching down were greeted with the distant sound of the returning drums of their comrades from New York and Ohio, but not half of tho veterans had yet fallen Into lino, and -the announcement that there wore 13, -WM) Massachusetts men still standing on the Common behind the more distant posts which still filled Commonwealth avoniio, was the signal for considerable straying, ltut tho crowd held good, And thousands greeted with cheers the .appearance of each now division. Among tho on the reviewing stand were President and Mrs. Harrison; Goneral Sherman, who walked a piece with the boys; Major-Gonoral Schofleld, Mrs. .Sheridan, Mrs. Logan, Mrs. Hancock, Mrs. Farragut, Miss Clara llarton. Governor Flfer of Illinois, Governor llrackott of Massachusetts, Governor Rulkely of Connecticut, Corporal Tanner, Past Commanders Warner, 61 Missouri; Vandorvoort, of Nebraska; Uae, of Minnenot; Wagner and Heath, of I'ennsylva ml, and liurdett, of Washington. Gen' erai Aigor, tomtnaniler-in-uueL wm .attended by a staff of 500 men. The appearance of General Alger, whorotlo a spirited bay, was the signal uor tho arising of Mr. Harrison and 'Cabinet. As each department came In front of the stand colors were dipped hats raised, und In many Instances rous lng cheers ere given for the President. A the posts went by carrying battle dlags, and as their Uttered and torn folds caught the brae7.es, every oceu tant rose and cheered lustily while the antes of the party waved their hand xorcuiets.
The parade as a whole was favorably ow me a tod upon, and eaok notable feature watt very generously reoelved. Viewed from Franklin Square the Grand Army parade was a magutfieent spectacle and was witnessed by fully ten thousand people. The two grand stand on both sides of the square were completely tilled long before the time assigned for the column to appear. The grand arch at the head of the square, profusely decorated, wa the center of attraction, especially to the eyes of the veterans, bearing, as It did, a finely executed representation of the battle of Gettysburg.
As the parade appeared in sight of the grand-stand at the square, the air resounded with cheer upon eneer by the impatient crowd, and when General Al ger came tn sight he was greeted with prolonged hurrahs and deafening ap pi a use, and handkerchiefs and hats were waved until he passed out of sight The procession was a magnificent spec tacle from this point, the line of march reaching nearly two miles Ih a straight line. The decorations in this vicinity were elegant. Hie parade was nearly six hours in passing the square. The following is a brief resume of the parade: At 1:40 p. m. a squad of mounted po lice, immediately followed by Com mandcr-in-Chief Aiger and staff, made their appearance in Adams square. The Commander and staff were received on the stand by General llutler and others. Hardly had he taken his position on the reviewing stand when the head of the procession oame in sight Generals Alger and llutler stood side by side, sa luting column after column as t Innpassed. After the long march which the veterans had undergone, they braced themselves for a good appearance as they passed their Commander, and they did finely. Post No. 5, of Chicago, gave the first cheer at the call of 'Hurrah for our next. President!" and It was elven heartily. Next came a call of "Three cheers for General llutler" from a Wisconsin post, and they were also given with a will. In fact, both were heartily cheered throughout the pass ing of the procession. On the appear ance of the Tonnsylvanla posts, with their torn battle flags, rousing cheers went up on all sides. The entire parade was a series of ova tions from all the departments along tho line of march. Tho largest post in tho procession was Post No. 5, of hynn, which numbered 725 men in line. All the past commanders, of this post are living, sixteen of whom marched on the staff of Ii W. Hall, the present commander. General Alger arrived at" Adams square the end of the route at 1:43 p. m., and the last carriage at the end of the procession, entered tho square at 7:80 p. m. The parade was rive hours and thirty-five minutes in passing.'. The Presidential party was repeatedly cheered as the various divisions went by and responded with lifting of hats and waving Of handerchiefs. At least fifteen thousand people availed themselves of the opportunity to see and hear the distinguished persons who were announced to lie present at the joint reception of the Grand Army and Woman's Relief Corps this evening at Mechanics' Hall. Itefere six o'clock crowds began to gather, and long before the doors were opened thousands were anxiously waiting and pleading for admission. About eight o'clock the doors were thrown open, and the spacious galleries and floor were quickly filled with veterans and their ladies representing every State r in the Union. Notwithstanding their long and fatiguing march in the day the veterans awaited the arrival of the distinguished guests with more patience than could bo expected. Finally Commander Schley, U. S. X., and staff, came upon the platform, being followed soon after by Mrs. Mary Morris S. Husband, tho famous war nurse of Philadelphia; Mrs. Willenmeyer, National president of the Woman's Relief Corps; Miss Clara llarton, president of the Ued Cross Association; Mrs. Mary E.,Knowles, Massachusetts department president; Mrs. Cheney, National secretary; Mrs. Lynch, National treasurer; Mrs. Nicholas. National inspector of the Relief Corps; Commander Innis, of the Department of Massachusetts. a Soon after nine o'clock General Alger, Commander-in-Chief of the G. A. It, entered and received a soldiers' welcome, and soon after a shout announced tho arrival of General W. T. Sherman, his brother Hojt Sherman, and Miss Florence Itarker, the first National president of the Women's Relief Corps. Department Commander Creasey at last called the meeting to order, introducing Department Commander Innes as the first speaker, who briefly welcomed tho visiting comrades on behalf of the Massachusett) department General Sherman was the next to be called upon. Ho was considerably fa tigued after the day, and spoke reluc tantly but succeeded in arousing much enthusiasm among the boys. Just as General Sherman had concluded his reremarks, tho Presidential party oame Into the hall. President Harrison was followed by Governor Itrackett, Vice-President Morton, Mayor Hartland and others. They were enthusi astically received. After the applause had sulnided ex-Commander Creasey Introduced Governor Itrackett who ex tended the welcome of the common wealth in an eloquent manner. Mayor Hart then welcomed the visi tors to the tty of ltoston. Mrs. Wlttonmcyer then spoke of tho Women's He ller Corps. General Alger, In behalf of the Grand Artnj, tendered their thanks for the kindness and reception given them. Following General Alger, Wesident Harrison, was Introduced an Comrade Harrison," and said: Mr, Ciuikman and Comraib or the (iRAM) iKMV OF THB KHI'L'HI.10; I liHVti ImpreMluNt both pleasurable and painful us 1 Imve looked upon ttm xrest prows, filon of veterans which swept through the strents of this historic capital to-day; pleasurable In the contemplation of o ntHy fdct-s or ths who Hnrl txetliiT the ptsilli andglorl of tn ureal strKKl tor the Union: MentM or a mmirnltil rt hs 1 thought hew ftohtom w nhonM awt axlt.

St Louis Republic THE SPEAKER'S HOBBY. MU MMtt Set en tho t'Mutage mt thm Imki Force 1 till. That Speaker Keed is in many respects an able man no one will deny. When on the floor of the House he was a roady and effective debater. His language was simple and vigorous and he nevor made the mistake of talking too long. As presiding officer he has added to his reputation in a certain way. He is remarkably quick la his decisions and never loseshishead. Whenever he has gone wrong it has been with malice aforethought In other words, thoil"' J he has mental attributes that quality bias lor the place in the highest degree. he is lacking In the moral attributes that are indispenslble to make a man a good Speaker. He is as conspicuous for unfair treatment of his political opponents as bis predecessor waa for absolute impartiality. He is as tyrannical as llismarck, and would limit the function of the House to the simple duty of asserting to his decrees. It is now reported that Mr. Reed has determined that the Senate shall pans the force bill before adjournment Ho k credited with saying that he will keep Congress sitting the year around in order to accomplish his object. He has set his heart upon having a law enacted that may lie used to cripple the Southern Detnocrata. Though he approves of an outrageously high tariff, and therefore gives his sanction to the McKiniey bill, that measure is to him of secondary importance. Possibly ho may have doubts ef its advisability. He must certainly know that there is considerable uncertainty as to the wisdom of passing It in its present shape. Hut tho force bill he regards as the salvation of the Republican party. He knows, as we all know, that it will result in rioting and bloodshed. His judgment is that this will arouse the feeling of sectional hatred to which his party has long owed Its existence, and which ho thinks is still strong enough, Under prop er management, to prevent a return of the Democrats to power. It is true beyond a question that the animosities that were fanned to fever heat by the war have net yet died out The bloody shirt elected Harrison. Hat it must not be forgotten that every year is adding to the list of voters hundred of young men both in the South and In tho North who are not divided in sentiment as their fathers were. They were satiated with war talk long ago, The Southerners admit that they were beaten and that they ought to have been beaten.
