The special train from New York conveying the Grand Duke Alexis and party passed througn the city this evening, leaving Camden station for Washington a few minutes after six o'clock, Not withstanding the lateness of the hour a crowd of several hundred persons had assembled at the Phila~ delphia depot, and on the arrival of the train they broke forth in hearty cheers, in acknowledgment of which the Grand Duke APPEARED ON THE PLATTORM of the car and lifted his cap several times, At Cam- den street depot still larger numbers were gathered, The Grand Duke appeared on the rear platform of the car und was received by the throag with three hearty cheers und @ tiger, which was graceiully recog ized by the Russian Prince, Count Catacazy said here that Alexis took great interest in everything along tie line of the road, asking numerous questions and frequently express ing wonver aad admiration regarding the people aad couniry. It is the general expectation that Alexis will pay a visit to the Winaus famiiy, the Kcussian railway contractors aad mililonnaires, now ag in Baltimore, but there are as. yet no deiinite arrangements made, : TH GRAND DUKE IN WASH- INGTON. Quiet Arrival and Simple Receptioa of the Ducal Party In the Capital—Description of the Fusvian Ambassador's Residence, the Present Home of the Priuce. ' WASHINGTON, NOV. 22, 1871, The capital to-day bad @ more important work even than to welcome the Grand Duke, aad Wagp- ington nobly performed its noblér duty. But be. tween éavitations to voté for Binckley anid other dis- tinguished Americans and questions as to the com- ing Prince the day paseea off quictly, Binckley, Andy Jonnson’s friend, was one among the many candidates for the House of Delegates of this Dis- trict, and as Binckley did not make a very good poll his friends at least were very doletw in their queries, In many districts Alexis was forgotten entirely, but as night came on, and the success of the Four Million Loan bill for public improvements was assured, there seemed to be something hke @ general anxiety conceruimg tae arrival of THE IMPERIAL SON OF RUSSIA. Everybody Was quite certaim he would be here at six o’clock, and black and white voiers eradually almost got themselves into the mood to forget Binckley and the rest, and to wait for the coming pageant. AT THB WHITE HOUSB there was no stir whatever. It bad already been determined that the Prestdent would receive the Prince in the Blue Room and tuat Mrs, Graat should welcome htm in the Red Room, but beyond this, ex- cept that reporters and other obnoxious persons not m favor with ihe chief of the nation should be rigorously excluded from the reception, nothing was fnaily determiaed, Even the hour of the Prince’s call upon the Executive has Not been definitely fixed, though it 13 understood that the visit to the Presidential mansion will be made about one o'clock. The reception itself will be of the simplest character, and it is not probable that the President will address tne Prince in good Russian; nor, so far as the President js concerned, is it likely the Prince will respond in comprehensi- bie French. So It becomes almost a neces- sity that English shail be the language of the occa- sion, and as most of the people about the White House can speak tolerabie English it is grati- fying that English is to be the language. The Prince Arthur reception, two years ago, is the model for this one also, and as President Grant at that time absolutely refused to let ordinary people look upon Lim while shaking hands with the offspring of royalty the former precedent must be followed now. It is premised by the foes of the ad- ministration that the President, Ike @ poor actor playing betore royalty, does not know what to do ' with his hands, and that he don’t want the news- papers to say ho put them in his trousers pockets at the very moment the Prince asks after Mrs, Grant and the childrea; bul everybody ts anxious io | know how GRANT AND CATACAZY will get along, and novody will know anless Mrs. Grundy geis under the table, This t8 the nuisance about the Whole business, and itis Woat makes tho Prince's visit go Interesting and 80 annoying, Per- haps the junnjest feature of the whole avair is the disappointinent of the army and navy officers. The Prince Alinur precedent was already forgotten by these gentlemen, and tuey looked back to the rae 8 old day of magisterial digoty when Buchanan was President and Japanese ‘tommy, the reputed priace, on bis travels.

At Nowark, Elizabeth and New Brunswick, the chef potuts along (he line of the New Jersey Rail- road at which the train bearing the imperial Alexis and his suite stopped yesterday en route for Wash. ington, the Grand Duke was the recipt- ent of fatteriug ovations. At each place crowds assembled at the depots some time before the expected arrival, and wi the train moved fu the crowd, without kuowmg renity whether the Prince Was on board, sent up rounds of applause, At Newark and the other piaces he appeared on the platform of bis car and bowed courteously wo the Jersey citizen sovereigns, ton af coming glories, Alexis was tie representa. Hive of & mihiary country, He was an oficer in both the Russian army and navy. He came in company with an oiicer= amv the most dis- tinguished in bis tather’s service.

The uiliitary ntle- men Were ready to give th? Prince a nt royal Weicome, but in betng compelied to swallow chetr digappomtment they turned away from the whole affair to disgust. There were consequently no pre- parations whatever in regard to the young Duke's coming, and THE SCENE AROUND THE BALTIMORE AND O1IO DEPOT this evening was by no means a brilliant one, A dozen mounted policemen, who bad done duty all Gay at the polls, were on hand to receive the im- perial party, and afew more officers were presemi to ae back the crowd, which did not attend. Possibly persons were in and about the depol and many of these were passengers avou! to depart by the tram for tne West Of those who were at the station very few were gentiemen of color, these being too busy in exercis- ing their newly fledged rights o° American sove- Treignty to care a red ceni for te son of a sovereign of Europe. Only the members of the press were adinitted within the gates, and when the train rolled mto the depot there was scarcely anything in the surroundings (0 indicate that anything unusual Was gomg to happen. News had been received vy telegraph that the special train containing the Frince and bis party would not be bere till hulf- past seven o'clock P, M., but tie carriages were ordered to be in walting by seven o'clock. Almost at the expected moment the train rin in upoa & side track. About adozen persons wore standing at the place where passengers usually alight, wuen locomotive ‘'322,” adorned with Kussian and Ame- rican flags, and drawing an ordinary baggage and @ Pullman palace car, came in with the nation’s eats, There was no excitement either within or without the building, and but few of those who cume to see went home and truthfuily sald they saw. Just a8 the train was coming in a colored boy, one of the few representatives of nis race who deizned to be present on the occasion, was detected In steal- ing the reins from the express wagon engaged to con- vey the Duke’s baggage to Oatacazy’s louse. As he Was marchod oit by a policeman a wag cried, ‘There goes the Priuce;” and as the trai was in by thig Ume the oldest newsgatherer In Washington plain- tively asked “Where?” Before the interest lu the Fic fot rt had subsided the Duke, Aduural Pos- Blet, Minisier Catacazy and the otier members of the Party, all in travelling dress, passed out of the de- bot. The representatives of the hoteis were all presen, anxious for the honor or taxing charge of 6 Duke’s trunks, and the alstinguished party was headed by one of t iese carrying tne valise, im Which was the Duke's clean shirt for the dinner at the Minister’s house. ‘The fellow had the impudence or curiosity 10 look back in the most quizcicai way at the Prince, who was comiag imiediately bebind him leaning on Catacazy's arm; and the arcum- dificult to auderstand THE FUNNY 8CENE Was the actual coiing of the Grand Duke Alexis, Indeed, the Prince abyhted irom the train aud Walked out througi the crowd in the dimly lighted depot to his carriage before most of those wio caine toget a glimpse of him Kuew what had hap- pened. ‘The carriages engaged io convey tne part to Mr, Catacazy’s house were four ia number, eac being drawn by two elegant horses.
