When only a day | later the volunteers of the sixth Massachusetts | regiment. thoroughly organized and well | equipped, forced their way with bicodshed | through riotous Baltimore and entered the city | with the marks of conflict in bebalf of the cap- {tal still upon them, that enthusiastic welcome was repeated and redoubled. And when after | a week of suspense and mortal apprehension the capital saw the seventh New York regiment | with glittering bayonets and flying flags march up Pennsylvania avenue tothe inspiring sound ‘of martial music it saluted these fine soldiers as the forerunners and representatives of the nation already in arms in its defense. Anxiety was swept away in an instant by this conc! sive manifestation of the people's inflexible mandate: “The Union and the Union’scity must and shall be preserved!” And the cheering of thousands, wild with joy, gave inadequate ex- Pression to the heartfelt welcome with which Washington greeted this advance guard from the vast army of its volunteer defenders. The scene was repeated when in 1864 Early threat- ened feebly-defended Washington, and Gen. Wright with twodivisions of the sixth corps hast- ‘ened in the very nick of time from the Potomac through the city to the relief of the menaced fortifications in the northern suburbs.

PRESIDENT COMING. Here Wednesday. WASHINGTON, D. TWO CuNTs. |GOV. MCKINLEY WILL NOP BE HERE man's prepara- tion for mortal combatamantie of grass and vines, shrubs and bushes, and, if the sword has not been beaten into the plowshare, at least the wood- work of grimly menacing forts has been converted into fire wood or the building material of negro shanties, Upon the very . spot oc- eupied some thirty years ago by cannon the unconscious picnicking party may lunch with merrymaking. The city itsesf then resounded with the tread of marching regiments, the ramble of supply wagons and of ambulances bearing the wounded the fife, the roll of the drum and the roar of cannou at the navy yard artillery camp und the arsenal. Its encircling hills were dotted with white tents and floating flags, ite public bnild- ings were hospitals, soldiers’ quarters or army provision depote. Mounted sentries were se c corners of the streets with drawn aabers, barracks appeared everywhere and military huts and military tents were pitched in the dust or mud of the upbuilt area. From the eity, as well as from the forts, bristling with cannon, that crowned every eminence, all notable signs of belligerency have disappeared. As‘ut the capital, which is the nation in min- iature, peace has conquered war, and th cations of hatred and combat and fratricidal bloodshed hare been obliterated, 4 from the reunited nation itself, from the mind¢aud hearts of men, may all traces of the prejudices and passions of the war be soon effaced! It is not in the disappearance of military features alone that the veteran will note a change in Washington. At the outbreak of the | allegiance toa state, arousing jealousies in the | war East Washington was in the main abroad expanse of barren plain. South from the Capitol were hovels and brick kiln excavations. South Washirigton in general was an island cut off from the main city by a festering canal and the mall, which was then the lurking place of criminals. In the northwest beyond 7th street and between M and Boundary streets there were swamps and commons and patches of meadow. Gows, swine, goats and geese had the freedom of -the city. Anthony Trollope, who visited Washington in 1362, like Tom Moore, Mrs. Trollope and Charles Dickens, who preceded him, gives an unfriendly but not imaginative description of the city. “Washington,” he says, ‘‘is but a ragged, unfinished collection of unbuilt, broad streets, as to the completion of which there can now, I imagine, be but little hope. Of all places that I know it js the most ungainly and the most unsatisfactory.” Trollope seems to have conceived an especial spite against Mussachusetts atente, which is now one of the finest residence streets in the city, and the vigor of his assaults justifies the suspicion that be was sent on some wild goose chase and found the mud of that street particularly disagreeable. “Massachu- setts avenue runs the whole length picturesque setting of flowers and rich foliage. | Each veteran as he beholds the present capital | may take to himself a share of credit for the change. For, as already indicated, the protec- | tion rendered by the nation to its capital and | the national spirit revived by the war have eaused the wonderful transformation. ‘The relation of the soldiers to this development, which gives to the welcomé of the city an addi- ' tional degree of grateful warmth, may also in- ire the veterans with a stronger, deeper | pride in the beautiful city, which in its rudi- | mentary stages they protected and preserved, and which in its present ebape they helped di- rectly and indirectly to ereate. From its pitiable plight of thirty years ago the capital has become an object of interest, pride and affection to Americans of all sections capital bas warmly | or coffins wrapped in flags, the shrill sound of | of the republic. Iu tho cosmopolitan popul tion of the modern city northerners, south- erners and westernezs are mingled. ‘The latter, not so very long ago in the dependent condi- | tion of residents of rational territory, strug- | gling for greater national attention to their afaite, and for more thoughtful co | of their needs and grievances by a legislative | body in which they had no real representation, | and sensitively resenting misconceptions, bora eration of sectional ignorance, concerning their re- | ze sources, spirit and tendeney, can gympaih with a community who-e present polfiicslly re~ sembles income respects their past, and they should be able to legislate with peculiar wisdom | and consideration for this bit of national eoil, [doing to the capital as they would that the | nation had done unto them in the tines that | are gone. But the strongest kold of the capital upon north and west—upon patriotic Americans | everywhere—arises from the fact that it em- | bodies the national idea. It owes no divided other states. It is the city of the nation, the whole nation. The south is not exeluded by | any means from bonds of sympathy with the | capital The passing of slavery removes the point of greatest sensitivencss that was touched by the existence of a national city and no ab- stract view concerning the relations of atute and nation needs to interfere longer with pride in and affection for the capital of the south, as well as of the north, and east, und west. ‘The city was founded by southerners and the dangers that menaced its infancy were warded off by them. Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Clay, Crawford. Calhoun and Jackson are on the first page of the list of the capital's friends, The west and north have supplied their full quota of notable names to this list, expecially since the war. The great men from ali sections who have delighted to enroll themelves among those who haggJabored hardest to make tho capital worthy of the republic, ggbuke and put to shame the ‘notion which seems to havo gained some prevalence in Congress that the brains of legislators are not broad enough to consider thoughtfully both eapitsl and national affairs, and that it is s‘ate therefore to dicdainfully ignore the eayital. There is no act of the forefathers which gives hospitality—a welcome which contains within | of the city and is inserted on the maps | more convincing evidence of wise forethought itself the aggregated warmth snd enthusiasm and gratitude of all these greetings of the past. | Go there and you will find yourself not only | national city.

The streets of depthless mud and blind- ing dust are now in large measure concretedand fringed with thousands of shade trees. In the matter of smooth streets the capital is fore- most among the cities of the world. Broad Pennsylvania avenue, with its rough cobble- stones of the war times, has been converted through the skillfal use of asphalt into the finest | parade street that any capital can boast. the veteran treads concrete instead of cobble- stones. and when the work of erecting pubiic bai along it in accordance with the original plan, already revived and initiated, chall be fully accomplished, and its surround- ings thas acquire suitable dignity and im- pressiveness, this historic avenue will rival in all respects the famous streets of the capitals | of the old world, whether the boulevards of Varis, Unter den Linden in Berlin, the Ring we of Vienna or Andrassy street in Buda- sth, Massachusetts avenue, where Trollope jered in the mud, displays today asa en residence street ive architecture.

It may be that our republic has its material symbol. Ihe close relation between the nation’s city and the patriotic national sen- timent has been noted. Sincere and entbusi- astic love of country is what keeps alive the modern republic and gives it prosperity and glory. Both capital and nation have planted the roots of their existence in this patriotic sentiment. The Union and its peculiar resi- dence und part property, hallowed by-every association which can keep patriotism alive, rest upon the same «npports, The imagination can readily conceive that the spirit of nation- ality, the soul of the Union, is enshrined in this exclusive territory, and that if over its peculiar existence shall be extinguished the event will be a foreranner of the dissolution of the Union. All through the doubtful stages of the civil struggle the sound of the busy workman's tools was heard in the Capitol building, cheering evidence of the national confidence in the re- sult of the warfare, and the cannon from tiles of forts annonnced the finishing touches to the magnificent dome which poises and oats lightly ia tho air its white lines of curving, swelling beauty.

John Palmer, the commander-in-chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, received the greetings of hundreds of old soldiers this morning at his headquarters at the Enbbitt. ‘The fact; that the mander of the entire forces of the Grand Army bad arrived gave to the scones about the Ebbitt a degree of animation that affords a fair type of what the subsequent days of the week will be.

If no war threatens—which may God | graut!—the grand army of peace will take the field, enlisting the youth of America in defense of the republic against the national perils of avarice and corruption, and calling upon them for the same patriotic bravery and persistence in well-doing that is displayed by the soldier against an armed foo. ‘The undying patriotic spirit of the Grand Army will live in the hearts and minds of sll true Americans, hardening their muscles for war in a righteous cause and developing for peaceful times another Grand Arnty by which Lows equally effective shall be delivered against ils that menace the republic, the creed of whose soldiers shall be that it is sweet and pleasant both to live and to die for one's country. 5 ‘Today the Union's city and the Union's army | hands in the warm, fraternal of travel and the great strain 1 has been ‘upon him.

He showed no trace of the futigue ha butions, and blue pants. In deference to the weather he had donned a white vest, and in the lapel of his coat he wore a single red blossom.
