At the same time all the steamboats and pleasure craft blew their whistles and made a din almost as deafening the saluting. There was a cheering and waving of hundkerchiefs, hats and umbrellas | and the triumphal processionof the presi- dential party was ended The whistles' sent up a cloud of steam, which, added to the smoke of the guns, obscured the view of the larger portion of the river. The admirals of the different squadrons then embarked in steam launches and proceeded to the Dolphin. AU2:30 the merehuant marine was signaled to wet away.

The crews of the men-of- war facea the rails and waved hats and handkercniefs at the noisy tugs and steam- boats us they passed. Several steam yachts saluted the men-of-war with one gun, which sounded like a toy pistol after the big guns of the men-of-war. ‘e whistles of the tugs and steamers kept upa continual tooting and blowing from the time thoy were given per- mission to start until the lower end of the long line of the squadron was reached Vuriety in the Nob The monotony of the noise of the whistles was varied by sirens on several tugs and the fire boats.

NEw Youk, April 27.—The Columbian ball tonight at the Madison Square garden was, in respect to magniticence of decoration and rangement, aud tQ the large number of world-famous guests present, the splendid ever giver fn the new world. Besides the president and his advisc | the chief logislativh body of the United States, and o Spanish grandee, who is the namesake and lineal¢ descendant of Christo. pher Columbus, there: were the diplomatic corps, the admirals and subordinate ofcers of every great naval power in the world, governors of neighboring states and famous army officers. It was, in fact, a gathering of celebrities so gloriously atrayed that the oldest and most traveled guest acknowledged that seldom, or never before, had he over seen a parallel to the gorgeous picture presented. The decorations of the garden were rich and elaborate, eclipsing in their magniticence and elegance, anythiug ever before attempted in the great auditorium. The main entrance had been drx background of pure by, (PR i CHIE cing of smilax and asparagus sprays, and cut fowers and rare exotics were profusely distributed through this ricn, green ground, with many iatricate lights, shining from out the mass of flowers and verdure. A silver dragon with great bulging eyes, zuarded the Madi- son avenue entrance In the center of the gardon thousands of sprays of lilies of the valley formed an arch Upon tho keystone was parchod u suiliog cupid, whose fairy wings were studded with miniature lamps and who held in his hands achain of vari-colored electric lights. The base of the arch was composed of many colored lights, whose hues were constantiy shanging.
