Emphatic Denials of the Story that He Has Been Paralyzed. Quite an excitement was created in town this morning by the publication in a New York paper of a story to the effect that Mr. Blaine had had a stroke of paralysis and that he was now convalescent. He went out driving Mon- day, but did not leave the hotel yesterday. | This morning the paralysis story was erphat- ically denied, both at the State department ard al the Normandie, Mr. Blaine would receive no cards or callers, but his private secretary, ‘Mr. Sherman, told all who came that there was no truth in the published report. “You can make the denial positive,” he said, ‘there is nothing whatever in thestory. It is a canard.” Mr. Walker Blaine Dentes the Story.

GRAND CIVIC PROCESSION REVIEWED BY THE PRESIDENT AND HIS CABINET—SOME OF THE | MOST INTERESTING TABLEAUX AND FEATURES IN THE LINE—MAYOR GRANT'S ADDRESS. New Yong, May 1.—The great event of to- day and the last in the series of centennial celebrations to commemorate the inauguration of Washington, was the civic parade designed to illustrate the industrial progress of the coun- try during its century of national life. ‘The splendid naval and military demonstra- tions of the past two days, surpassing any of their kind ever witnessed in the new world, seemed not to have satiated the appetite of the people for sight-seeing. From a very early hour this morning crowds began to gather at | all the places along the line of march from which a view of the parade could be had, and by 8 o'clock the side- walks all along the route were well fringed with the waiting throng. The stand soon be- gan to fill up with ticket holders, and the open spaces in the vicinity of the President's re- viewing stand at Madison square were es- pecially crowded. Befc the the parade to move, every available site had been pre-empted along the line of march and the windows and doors, as well as the sidewalks, were well filled with spectators, The parade was under the management of Gen. Daniel Buttertield as chief marshal, and the smoothness with which the program was carried out showed the excellent result of his careful attention to details during the elaborate preparations which he has been making for weeks past. Early this morning the streets leading east and west from 5th avenue 5th to 59th street were alive with ‘deleg: from the various organizations which were to comprise the procession, and the work of dis posing them in proper ‘position rapidly pro- ceeded, so that when the order to start was given each detachment fell into line without lay or confusion, All the streets in this inity were kept clear of traffic, a large force of police having been detailed for the purpose of preventing any interference with the forma- tion of the parade. The President was escorted from the resi- dence of Vice-President Morton to the review- ing stand at Madison square, which he reached a few minutes after 10 o'clock, THE PARADE STARTED at 9:30 a, m. from 5th avenue and 57th street, the column passing down the avenue. As its head reached 27th street Mayor Grant, with the rep- resentative delegates for the civic, industrial. and commercial societies and organizations of New York, who had been stationcd in that vi- cinity awaiting its approach, moved and took the lead until the President's reviewing stand was reached. The vor bore an address, which, on reaching the stand. he formally pre- sented to the President amid great applause from the multitude and the booming of a hun- dred-gun salute from the naval vessels an- chored in the North river below 59th street, MAYOR GRANT'S ADDRESS, To Benjamin Harrison, President of the United Stales, Aprii 30, 1859: ‘The undersigned representation of the civie, commercial, industrial, and educational organ- izations and bodies of the city of New York, on asion of the centennial eclebration of the inauguration of Ws ent anew to the President of the United in his oificial capacity, their allegiance to the government. constitution, and the laws, with their congratulations w) of a centary of constitutional the progress made in that centy [Signed.] Hven J. ws Mayor of City of New Yor Davies Burrenvirep, Chief Marshal, ary.

The column then proceeded down the avenue op the grand stand with bands playing and flags waving in honor of the President, who courte- ously responded to the salutes of the various organizations, A continuous cheer from the ranks, with a general response from the admir- ing throngs, added excitement to the scene 2s the gay procession aad past. First came a detail of mounted police, which swept the street clear from curb to curb of all stragglers. A battalion of police on foot followed, escort- ing the chief marshal, Gen.

They were accompanied by the 7th New York Highland regiment veterans. The nish Scheutzen Bund and the Centennial sharp-shooters followed with two Swiss ta- bleanx—Helvetia, with twenty-two living fe- le figures representing the Cantons of the Swiss republic, and an alpine crag with mois and the historic group of Tell defying .

The chief ele- | meut of interest in this division, and one of the | most striking features of the whole parade, was [the series of allegori tableaux, devised mainly by Joseph Keppler, of Puck, and which possessed great ic merit aside from their | appropriateness to this occasion.

In their general {plan of construction these tableaux were modeled upon those of the New Orleans Mardi Gras carnivals, and many spectators who had ed the famous southern exhibition pro- nounced to-day’s float equal in magnificence to anything they had ever seen, THE KAPPLER FLOATS, Tn the first float, by Lauber, German immi- | gration to this country one hundred years ago, was constructed in an amusing fashion with similar immigration to-day. The next showed the German heroes of the Revolution. De Kalb, Stenben, and others. The next, and one of the most admired ¢ud applauded,represented “The emigration caused by the revolution in Europe, 1845.” It contained hving models of the famous men who were driven from Germany on ac- count of their liberal ideas and sympathies with the masses in the general uprising that signalized that era, As the crowd recognized the familiar faces and forms of these heroes, some of whose originals are now ——. our foremost citizéns, loud shouts of approbation burst forth. On a pedestal in the center of the group was a figure of liberty, and around it were figures symbolical of free rt a free press, and religious freedom. Next in order was a float which was loudly Sage On it was Washington's carriage, the inside of which were gazing out of the windows representing George and Martha Washington. The e was escorted by German societies. Another tableaux of great Reoner and merit was one representing the achievements of Ger- many in science.

Loxpox, May 1.—I have seen the Grosvenor | and the new galleries, and no picture in either is more challenging than Sargent's Ellen Terry as Lady Mackxth, It is not well hung, but has a distinction about it which would arrest atten- tion anywhere. It is very coarsely painted, but there is a curious skill in the way in which great masses of green paint resolve themselves at the proper distance into Terry's famous beetle-winged gown, There isa real touch of inspiration in the artist's catching Terry's ex- pression of mingled triumph and remorse, The other pictures of Terry are common-place be- side it. It hangs in the new gallery, which is the old Grosvenor under a new name.
