Captain Armistead gives a graphic
account of tke impressive scene at tbe
inauguration of John Quincy Adams
in 1825. Calhoun was then; Vice
President and Clay was speaker of the
Honse. General Jackson who had
been a competitor for the Presidency,
was also present aad excited great *p*

of Mr. Adams. “I see no accoant of

Bnt th* inauguration of Gen. Harri

that kind that has yet marked the bi<

that ushered in Polk, in' 1845, but the
meodous. The day recorded the
ration of the Whigs to power, and the
disgust of the overthrown Democracy
waa well typified in the undignified
conduct of the oat-going Van Baren,
who reiaasd to appear at the inaugnra-
tiosi or to meet Harrison.
“Tbe day tbe loveliest I ever saw in
Washington," said Captain Armistead
I was opposite the residence of Colo
nel Seaton, editor of th* Intelligencer,
when Harrison came out. He was a
magnificent looking man on horseback.
He took his place in a hollow square
of cavalry and rode that way to the
