The promenade music will be furnished by Gilmore's Band, and the dancing music by Haley's Orchestra. Every one not attending the ball should go to one of the concerts.

His journey from Mount Vernon to Federal Hall, New York, was an o\Mtion th.e entire route. He had a militai'v escort to church, and in the afternoon he received members of Congress and the public. In the evening there was a fireworks display. At his second inauguration, which took place in Philadelphia, the military display was verv fine, and on that occasion was given the first Inaugural Ball. JOHN ADAMS was inaugurated in Philadelphia in 1797, and he also had a large military display. During his administration the seat of Government was removed to Washington. JEFFERSON was elected by the House of Representatives. Owing to the ill-feeling between Jefferson and Adams, the latter did not attend the former's inauguration. The Washington .Artillery and the Alexandria Rifies filed salutes at sunrise and at noon, and had a parade. Jefferson rode to the j Capitol on horseback, — hence the expression "Jeffersonian simplicity," — although he h.id intended to dri\e to the Capitol in a coach and four, but they did not arrive in time. There was no ball given at this inauguration. At MADISON'S two and MONROE'S two inaugurations soldiers of the Revolution had places in the parades. .A remarkable fict is that Monroe was elected the second teini by every electoral vote save one. JOHN QUINCY ADAMS, the next President, was declared elected by the House ol Representatives, although Jackson had received moie votes in the electoral college. His inauguration w.is a magnificent affair and took place in the hall of the House of Represent.itives. All subsequent inaugura- tions have taken place in the open air. T/mr-^^ ^ ^ Mnstorksil IN CONNECTION WITH . . rcctoufi ;|naui9iirationf) # ACKSON was elected by an immense majority to succeed Adams, and the parade at his inauguration was the largest that had taken place up to that time. Jackson was more popular at the time of his second than at his first election, as was evinced by the immense parade on the occasion of his second inauguration. Mr. VAN BUREN had a very fine display when he succeeded Jackson. Everybody has heard of the campaign of ''Tippecanoe and Tyler too," and how it resulted in the election of Gen. HARRISON. The parade was very imposing, consisting of military companies, clubs, and trade displays, log cabins with barrels of hard cider, coons and roosters, stretching out over a mile. It was a very stormy day, yet the General rode bare-headed to and from the Capitol, fr.om which exposure he contracted a heavy cold, and died within a month. It was generally believed by the Whigs, of whose party Harrison was a member, that he had been foully dealt with. The funeral procession was verv sombre and imposing. TYLER, the Vice-President, filled out the term. POLK was the next President elected, and his inauguration was the most brilliant that had occurred, many military and political organizations from the near-by States participating, including the Independent Blues, of Baltimore; Savage Guards, from Annapolis Junction; the Columbian Artillery; the Em- pire Club, of New York; the Jackson and Young Hickory Clubs. Mr. Polk was escorted to the Capitol with Mr. Tyler, and, afterwards, at the White House, he received congratulations' from the public. TAYLOR had the Mexican heroes in his parade, among them being Generals Scott, Wool, Qiiitman, and Gaines. There was quite a number of military organizations in line, and several companies of bovs drawing guns by hand. Taylor's personal escort was composed ol a hundi'ed young men. HnstornesiD ^(£t IN CONNECTION WITH . . f \\iV\o\n naiigurntions ^ N the evening there were three Inaugural Balls, given in different places in the city, and the President attended each. Gen. Taylor died before the expiration of his term. His funeral procession WMS \eiv large, and even larger than his inaugural parade. The funeral car was drawn by eight white horses, followed by the General's horse, "Old Whitey.'' Mr. FILLMORE, the Vice-President, filled out the term. Gkn. pierce, of the Mexican War. was the next President, and was elected over Gen. Scott, his former commandei'. Mr. Fillmore accompanied Gen. Pierce at his inauguration, and, with Mrs. Fillmore, welcomed the Piesident to the White House. The weather was very inclement, yet a large civic and military display was made and many thousands witnessed the ceremonies at the Capitol. A large reception to the public at the White House followed in the evening. Mr. BUCHANAN, accompanied by President Pierce, was next inaugu- rated. The day was beautiful and spring-like, and an immense number of people witnessed the parade, which consisted of military and civic clubs, a good number of which came from a distance. The decorations along the line of march weie vei y elaborate. LINCOLN, the martyr President, came next. He was the first Republican elected to the Presidency. On his journey from Illinois to Washington there was an immense outpouring of the people along the route to shake hands with him, — "Old Abe," as he was called, being immensely popular with the masses. He was elected for a second teim and but a little over a month following his inauguration — on April 14, iSbs — he was assassinated. His luneral was the greatest ever known in history, his body being laid out in state in nearly every large city until it reached its final resting-place, at Springfield, Illinois, JOHNSON, the Vice-President, filled out the term. His attitude was so antagonistic to his party that impeachment proceedings were commenced against him, but they failed. ^ ^ Mnstorkall ^^f IN CONNECTION WITH . . ranous luuinui'iition^ ^! EN. GRANT succeeded Johnson, and was also elected t'oi' a second term. The second inauguration of Grant occuired on one of the coldest days ever known in Washington, and many died from the effects of the weather and from colds contracted at the hiaugural Ball, for which an immense frame structure had been built. After the parade, the officers of the West Point Cadets were so frost-bitten that they had to be lifted from their horses. In the case of Grant's successor, because of some irregularities in the returns, Congress appointed an Electoral Commission, which decided in favor of HAYES over Tilden, the Democratic candidate. Hayes' adminis- tration was brilliant socially. One of the features of the dinners at the White House during his term was the tabooing of all intoxicating liquors. Unfortunate GARFIELD was the next President. He was shot by an assassin shortly after his inauguration, but lingered until September, when he died. His funeral was the saddest and most impressive ever witnessed in Washington. Gen. ARTHUR, who tilled out the teini, was celebrated for his clean, conservative administration and for his great personal charm. CLEVELAND followed Arthur. As to weather, the 4th of March. 188s. was an ideal day, and the inauguration was attended by the largest crowd ever at the Capitol. People came from ail over the country to witness the event. HARRISON was next elected. The day of his inauguration was rav\' and lainv, but there was, notwithstanding, a fine military and civic parade from the Capitol to the White House. The Inaugural Ball was held in the Pension Building. Harrison v.'as succeed by CLEVELAND (his second term). The inaugu- ration was largely attended, and the paiade was very tine. The Inaugural Ball was held in the court of the Pension Building, and was the finest public ball ever given in this country, eighteen thousand people being on the floor at one time. 20th eENTURY Bicycle BURNS KEROSENE.
