' Chearo was ea fete in honor of the nay mk the event The pablie holiday had beea deereed by the city authorities, nnd the pnblie departments, the Mltools, as well as the public buildings, were elosed, while business of all kinds was generally suspended. The tleeoratiens, especially in the center of the it j, were elaborate and tasteful. The inlnx ef visitors from abroad exceeded the wildest expectations of the railroad psople. It eotnmeneed Tuesday morniug, eeatinHed far into the nhrht, while from an early hour to-day an almost see tin noes procession seemed to pour t of the five central depots until the streets In the center of the city were for blocks at a stretch little better than a swaying mass of pedestrians. Good Mtare and good order were, however, preserved, and no accidents have been reported. A smart shower ittst as the column was. about to move dampened the uniforms but not the ardor of the pantile rs. As esrl? as 9 o'clock the various dL TkiioBB of the parade began to form on m . .MMHigan avenne and the thorough fares adjacent thereto. The in street tons issued by Maj.-Gen. Kelson A. Miles, as chief marshal. were so clear and explicit that no conxu&toa was experienced in forming' the line, hut the turnout of organizations was far in excess of all anticipations, and it was not until 1 o'clock that the rear of artillery rave a signal for the head of the column to move. A division of the city Dolic..V0 strong. tiniW mand of Chief McClaughey, in columns of companies, the first on foot, and those following mounted, led the way Then on nrancinar steeds him n.n Miles and Gen. Joseph Stockton, chief . r ... ... stan, wimi wietr stalls. The second division was led hr a. rarr. intent of United States infantry from ren e Herman, followed by a battery ei umsea states artillery and Gen MUes famous old Battery E, of the First artillery, and behind these came M Jf. m - - xw a BHKance or over a mile the in faatry and cavalry of the National Guard, the various companies re pre seating- every section of the state. The third division was a notable one, being composed of members of the so eteites of the Armv of the Tpnnui the Army of the Potomac and the Army f the Cumberland. Many of the distmgutohed men of thk division warn instantly reeognbed by the crowds and nearMiy eneerea irons point to point A near those that same In for a. mnm than hearty greeting was Gen. Horace rerter, uen. Edward s. Bragg, one of the fasaeus Iron brigade; Senator Davis, of Minnesota; Senator J. J. Ingalk and Henry Wattersou. Gen. Butterfteld. of New York, president of the Society of the Army of the Potomac, also came ia for a share of the hearty greeting. The fourth division, with Gen. A. G. Ducat as marshal, was led by a carriage containing Gen. Grant's widow, and another with Jesse Grant and family, and a third with Ulysses 3. Grant, Jr., and another vehicle containing Judge Gresham, and finally Secretary Noble aad party. Mrs. John A. Logan and family, and the members of the Grant Monument association. Gen. Horace Clark and his staff headed the flfUi division, which was exclusively composed of members of the Grand Army of the Republic Conspkmous in thk division was a little band of veterans, fifty in number, all that survived of Grant's old regiment, the Twenty-first Illinois infantry. A good many of them were aged aad infirm, and some were crippled aad maimed, but they marched proudly between a running cannonade of cheers and shouts from both shies of the line of marsh. At the head of the little eompany a one-armed veteran bore a stand ef colors. They were the selfunit colors that the hero of Appo mattox himself unfurled in front of his headquarters when elected colonel of the regiment The sixth division was composed of veterans and the sons ot veterans, and the seventh and last of civic societies. Prominent in thk division was Chicago pest ef veterans of the confederate army, and the feelings that prompted the men who wore the gray to tern out en the occasion was heartily recognised by the spectators from the beginning to the end of the route. The arrival of the bead of the eolwmn at the bead of the park was the signal far the discharge of guns from the United States steamer Michigan, whieh, with the revenue cutters Feeeendea and Je-hnsoe, were at anchor in the bike off the breakwater.

"W the dirktop oontaiaksg the dkHmgwkhad guesta bail raaabul the base of the monument, Mrs. U. S. Grant, Jesse Grant and his wife and their children were escorted to seats on the right of Judge Gresham, and the immense gathering was called to order. Prayer was offered by liisfcop John P. Newman, after which the statue was presented on behalf of the trustees of the association to the com mission era of Lincoln park and the people of Chicago by Edward T. Tay ior. AS:, uie statue was unveiled a naval and military salute was fired. Hon. W. C. Gowdy inada a speech of acceptance on behalf of the park com miss loners, and Mayor Washburhu snoke for th oltisMas nt CUlaajrn Judge Gresham was then introduced as the orator of the day.
