Albany, the city that values its customs, like its H houses, becauee they are old and inconvenient; the city, ‘in-which progress, like locomotion, is up-hill work; in which business, like its intelligence, is dull; the city where legisiative debating means ‘oratory, and lobbying means buying an Assemblyman with a drink; the city ‘which hangs on to and is supported by the Capitol, like 2 wkite-tail by a kite; the city whore excitements are squabbles between Governors end sub-oflicials: the city whose iphabitants ae so Duteh that four P, M. means bed-time: the city where many railroads connect but none stop, bocaube no passengers WOuld ever consent to remain there; the city which Is turved-into an annual Venice by freskcts and fisods; the city where.newspapers state what they wish and not what they know to be true; the city where secret his- tories abound and Thurlow Weeds reside, bat never re- Main at ‘home; in short, the capital of the State of New York—was deserted by the Prosident elect and his suite yeaterdry morning.

Mr. showed himself to the people, was greeted with Seomendons cheers, and remained upon the platform to pdmire the magnificent Cohocs Falls, which, swollen by the recent floode, tumbled over the procipices in varying fleets of foam. At the Waterford junction, by some dexcrous raliway proceed igg®, a rpecial car for the Troy delegation was placed into the train, and the party then proceeded to Waterford, where they were enth asiastical- ly received, At Troy the first stoppage was made. The im- anense Union dep2t was crowded and surrounded with peo- plo and tho cheors wero deafening. Probably eight thousand persons wero prosont; and as quite baif this umber wore ladies, the scone was as beautiful as it was Moposing.

M. THE PARTY ON BOARD, The train consisted of two passenger cars aw@ one car ‘for the beggage of the party, which was kimdly taken in charge by the Manhattan Express Company. In tho forward car were the reporters of the leaéing journals, Aldermen Barry, Smith and Cornell, and Councilmen Ste- venson and Hall, of the New York Oommittee; E. Dela- field Smith, 0. W. Brennan, John Kyser and Daniel Cono- ver, Fsqra., of the New York Republican Central Commit- tee; a representative of the Young Men’s Centra\ Com- mittee; C. J. Rodgers, of the Republican Union; 0. E. Gavit, of the New York Wide Awakes; a mem- United States Army; Major Lamon, of Ilincis (who was only equeered, not ruptared, 4n the crowd at Albany), and others of Tesser note. Vice President Vail aud Superintendent Smith, of the Hudson River road, were on board, and the train was in charge of the Hon. Samuel Sloan, President of the company. Bob Lincoln, the “Prince of Rails’’ as he is called with earcastic rail- lery—for Bob thinks of nothing just now but segars, aud wouldn’t be a Prinee on any terms—represented his father in the forward @ar, and indulged in all sorts of uprearious merriment, tho. New Yorkers being only too willing accessories, assistants and to often ringleaders. Fun, conversation and the new York papers made the time pass very pleasaatly in this car. In the special car were Mr. ani Mra. Lincoln and their suite, persova) sketches of the members of which will be found elsewhere. Martin J. Townsend, Esq ,a Chicago delega‘e, and a great friend of Thurlow Weed, wag also on board, but Mr. Lincoln was 80 unwell and fatigued that he seemed to take very little inte- rest in political conversations. Mrs. Lincoln chit-chatted with her friends, and seemed ail life and enjoyment. Major Hunter, with his dislocated arm, looked yery pallid and fatigued, and slept heavily during most of the journey. It was plain to seo that the Lincoins are com- mon sense, home-like folks, unused to the glitter and tlutter of society. Towering above all, with bis face aad forehead furrowed by a thonsand wrinkles, his hair unkempt, bis new whiskers looking as if not yet naturalized, his clothing illy arranged, Mr. Lincoln sat towards the rear of the saloon car. Putting preju- dices a-one side, ne one can see Mr. Lincoln withoat ro- cognizing in hima man of immense power and force of character ond natural talent. He seems so siacere, so conscientious, #0 earnest, 8° simple hearted, that oue cannot help liking him} and esteeming any disparage- ment of his abibties or desire to do right as a personal insult. What will he do? all are asking Mr. Lincoln says that he has not yet determined; he cannot determine until he shail get all possible light upon the enbject; but he is sure that be will say nothicg * ineon- sistent with the constitution’ —his favorite phraso. Will be favor Weed or Grecley? Either Weed or Grecléy would give a small fortune to know. Liacoin does not keow himeclf as yet, He agts very cautiously and balances favor with favor. If he is closeted with Grecley one hour, he gives, soon, an hourto Weed. If he takes Greeley’s arm, be walks up stairs by Weed’s side. If ho cines with Weed’s Governor, he sleeps at Greeley’s hotel. Tiowcan Lincoln know which to choge, when to know would be to decide upon bis policy, and that he keeps un- decided? With the rare argumentative and logical pow- ers; with the great telf-porsession and self con- trol; with the intimate knowledge of puli- es and politicians, and with the un- common, homespan common sense which his friends claim for him, Linooln seems a man to act and decide for himself, and pot be entrapped by cither of his dear f who, like the fabied spider, would be glad to cat is Presidential @y. Ho scems tremendously rough, and tremendously honest and earnest. J.iacoln taiks excellently and with ease upon any topic, and tells astory with consummate tact. He seldom tells stories in his public speeches, however, When first in Congress he adopted the hifalutin style, but has since changed this for that Spartan eimplicity of manner snd dic- tion which all great orators bave preferred. Of late, alko, he tes fewer startes than usual in conversation, pecimen of what his swries are—and for them ho great popwar reputation—ho said, ono day, ‘I onco knew a good, souad churchman, whom we'll call Brown, who Was OD 4 committee to ercct u brivge over a very dapgerous and rapid river.

But Lhave my doubts about abutment on the infernal side. You should see Ligcom’s facical coutortions atthis point. “So,” Linooln added, “when politicians said they could harmonize the Northern and soutbera wiogs of the democracy, why, I believed thum, Put [ had my doubts about the abutment on the Seuthern side.” The story which lincoln began to tell ja Iniinna, the other ; but which was froken off by the de parture of the traia, is equally epropos:—'‘There was a man who was to be nominated at @ political convention, and bired a horec.of a livery to jenracy there. horse wae so confoundedly lp. a the chain moved off, aznid coneluced the story at the man arrived too nen¢é pominated and pajour When ho arrived home he raid to the stabloman, ‘This mal of yourta @ne animal.’ ‘Do yeu think tainty, but never = him toaa undertaker.’ ‘Cndertoker! why sot’ if the horse wore ect to @ beans, resurrection day would come Before ise reached the cemetery.’ ‘Se,’ cone'ded the Presi cout, “of my journey goes om as thig alow rate it be reeurrection day before £ reach the Capital.’’ Such are the stories with wiih Lig. colp deligh @ lus friends w the mood coer sokiom.

Mr. Lincoln was informed that this was the city which gave the first republican majori- ty from the seaboar:!, and was briefly welcomed by the yor. Taking his place vpon the platform which bad been erected, and turning around several times to view | the immense throng, Mr. Lincoln finally faced that part of the throng over which the national flag was | displayed, and “ame the greatest number of ladics were gathered, and spoke as follows:— SPEECH OF MR.

(Iavghtor.)

(‘Hurrah.”) I believe with you, I believe in sticking to it, and carry. ing it through; and, if defeated at one election, I believe in taking the chances next time. (Great laughter aad ayplause.)

The engine waa a new one, used on this cccasion for the first time, It was beauti- fully decorated with flags and streamers, one of the latter bearing the word “Constitution,” which is the name of the engine. Another new locomotive called the “Union,” had drawn the party from Albany to Poughkeepsie, from which place the “Constitution” brought them to New York. The train parsed up to the rear of the depot, on ‘Thirtieth street. It was with diffloulty that the police restrained the crowd from following and pressing upon it, ‘The enthusiasm at this stage found vent ia loud cheers. THE DISEMBARKATION, No time was lost in the disembarkation. Tho gata who had been invited to places ineide the building formed themselves into two Ines, between which the President and hia suite would pass, Mre. Lincoln with ber children drove down in a private carriage to the Astor House. Thé President, escorted by Jnige Davis, of Mjnois, and Colonel Sumuer, walked through the building out to Thirtieth street, whero tho car risges were im waiting. His appearance was the signal for aloud burst of cneerirg, accompanied by vay- ing of bandkerchiefs by the women. The party wero foi- lowed by those who had been admitted.to the depot. Mr. Lincoln immediately entered the tifa! open baronche which had been set apart for him. “It is the same which was used by the Prince of Wales on the ovcasion of his re- ception in this city, and was yesterday drawn by theweame six black horses that were brought into requisition at the royal visit. While the members of the party were en- tering the carriages, a number of curious individuals crowded into the Presidential car, ani gavs it a very minute inspection. Seme want ed to know which chair or settee Mr. Lincoln had gat upon, in order that they also might ait upon it, Unable to procure that information, they de- liberately proceeded to carry out the intention of sitting upon all of them, so that thus they mizht comfort them selves with the assurance that they had certainly sat upon the right ore, THE ORDER OF PROCESSION The scene was very animated all the while that the party were entering the carringes. Cheering and waving of hats and bandkerchiefs were kept up without inter- ruption. The preparations being completed for the departure, an immense outburst of cheering and in creased confusion among the crowd announced the start of the prosession. First came a squad of mounted po- lise, followed by a platéon on foot, extending tho whole width of the street from curb to curb. Tn a carriage fol. lowed Superintendent Kennedy and Captains Leonard ana Dilks, of tho Police Department. Next the Common Council Committee, which had proceeded to Albany to tender the hospitalities of the city to the President elect. These were followed by the Presidential carriage, in which sat Mr. Lincoln, Judgo David Davis, of Illinois; Colonel E. V. Sumner, of the United States army, and Alderman Cornell, Chairman of the Common Council Re- ‘This was surrounded by a cordon of policemen. The carriages which followed contained the members of Mr. Lincoln’s suite and the These carriages kept close to the curb stone on either side of the street all along the route, A large wagon of ‘Wescott, Dodge & Co.'s Exprese, containing the baxguge, ond drawn by six bay horses decorated with plumes, brovght up the rear of tho procession. There was no military escort, no band of music, nothing to enliven the occasion, except the cheers of the spectators, which, how- shall not fail; but withont your sustaining hands | sure that nether I vor any other man can-hope to mount those difficulties.

Tho propellers on the river screamed and whistled their congratulations. Tho | ever, though continuous, were not exceodingly enthu- sinstic, In addition to the President's family, the following per- sons constitute his suite :—Lockwood Todd, Dr. W. 3.

At Dobb's Ferry a little girl was dreseed as the Genius 0 America, At the Orphan Asylum the children were drawn up in frontf the track, and though it was no Bamed in the time table, Mr Lincoln, with his custom kineness, bad the train stopped a moment that tne chi . dren might see him. Atall of theso places flags waved and either cannon or guns were fired. Private carriages were drawo up along our splendid suburban residences. ‘The passengers on the special train packed their knick- knsckeries togeth realy for digembarkation. Mr. Lincoln allowed himself to be brushed, gave his hair an extra turp, arranged his whiskers, of which he is unjustly proud, and tried to lock his prettiest. The New York Committe bustled about. The people of Man- hattapville and up-town looked at the train oo silent, and at last, gem in time—three P. Af. train gli¢ed into the new depot, and Mr, Lincoln was roady for his reception i the metropolis, THE PRESIDENT ELECT IN NEW YORK. THE ARRIVAL. Tho anticipated arrival of the President ciect in the city of New York did not produco so much interest or excitement among our citizens yesterday as euch an event would naturally be supposed to create. Outward indications would hardly have led a st to suppoeo in the morning that anything unusual was to happen, aniess a display of figs floating from numerous public ‘bulidings might have suggested the idea. Certainly, at noon, One would not have imagined that in afew hours the chosen Ghief Magistrato of the country was to ITPRSONAL SKETCHES OF THE MEMBERS OF SHE SUITE OF THE PRESIDENT ELECT— WHAT THEY ARE, AND WHAT THEY ARE LIKELY TO BE. ‘Lhe military portion of the cortege consiste, dret, of COLONEL E. V. SUMNER, U. 8. A. Colcrel Sumner has gerved in the army over forty years, having antered the Seoond infantry in 1818. At the formation of the First dragoons he was transferred to that regiment. Most of his life has been spont in the eaddle west of the Mississippi river. Te participated inthe wholo of the Mexican war, At the battlo of Cheru- buseo General Scott paid him the high compliment of necigning him to the command of another regiment—the mounted ritiee—although « ficld officer of that regiment was then on duty with it. After tho war Colonel Sum- ner was placed in command of the Department of New Mexico, and at the formation of the four now regiments, authorized by Congress in 1855, ho was appointed colonel of the First catalry, the position which he now holds. Some rigalry arose botween this regiment and the Second ‘agoode , of which Gen. Harnoy was then colonel. Harney tried to injure the repntation of Col. Sumner for courage, but was forced by him to seek sholter under the protecting wing of ex-Secretary Floyd. The humane services rendered by Col. Sumner durtog the Karsas troubles are well remembered.

This crowd took up its position on the sidewalk in frovt of the aepot. A pile of lamber in a lot opposite afforded accommodation for a largo number of people, many of whom were women, A long fence was likewise thoroughly fringed with men and boys. All the wisdows and roofs of the vicinity were filled w.th spectators, while the streets were thronged with a motly crowd. The appearance of the police, an hour or more before the tine for tho arrival of the President, cavsed coneiderable confusion ainong the people. The ren were running to get out of tho way, the women to jrevent the crushing of them. selves and the children. Superintendent Kennedy was pereonally in attendance at the depot.
