The day set apart for the inauguration
of a new Governor came in cold, rainy
and thoroughly disagreeable. This may
account in a large measure for the fact
that the crowd of out-of-town yisitors
was much smaller than had been expected
by the managers of the occasion. Still
there was a fair crowd in attendance, and
the streets of the busy city of Atlanta
for a time took on a holiday appearance. Whitehall
The procession formed on
street, opposite Trinity church, about
10:30 and shortly after 11 o’clock moved
down Whitehall to Alabama, up Ala¬
bama to Broad, up Broad to Marietta,
down Marietta to Pryor, thence up to
Peachtree to the intersection of Forest
avenue, where the infantry came to a
halt. The Governor’s Horse Guard, com¬
manded by Captain John Milledge, pro¬ of
ceeded out Peachtree to the residence
the late Walter 8. Gordon, corner of
Peachtree street and Ponce de Leon Cir¬
cle, where they halted and saluted Gov.
Gordon as he entered a carriage drawn by
four horses, lion. W C. Glenn, mem¬
ber of the House from Whitfield, and
sixth district, occupied -8 .sL'ivic-L-PL scats in the Tl'jjlyr
car¬
riage with Governor Gordon. The pro¬
cession then moved down Peachtree to
the
Arriving at the capitol, the infantry
formed on Marietta, opposite the build¬
ing, and the Governor’s carriage, followed
by the Confederate veterans, in command
of Col. Lovick P. Thomas, the Govern¬
or’s Horse Guard and the Ilill City
Cadets of Rome, Captain Charles Coth¬
ran in command, who arrived at 11
o’clock, moved up Marietta street to the
entrance.
The streets were lined with people who
cheered lustily as the procession moved,
and Governer Gordon, ever and anon,
rising in his carriage and lifting his hat
in acknowledgement.
After the address Chief Justice Jack
son admini-tercit the usual oath of oflice.
The President handed to the Governor
the great seal of the State, who in
entrusted it to the custody of the Secre
t a ry of State.
President Davidson then proclaimed
the Hon. John B. Gordon Governor and
commander-in-chief of the army and
navy of the State of Georgia for the en
suing two flic years.
When ceremony was over quite a
number of distinguished personages
gathered around Governor Gordon and
expressed their congratulations. ex-President Con
spicuous among these were
Hayes, who shook him warmly by the
Jiand and complimented the inaugral ad
dress.
Immediately the joint session wa» dis¬
solved, and as soon as the Senate retired,
the House outside, adjourned. Marietta
On the on street, be
tween the capitol gathered and the custom house,
a large crowd to witness the
last of the military display. But they
were doomed to disappointment. The
rain bad band dispersed the military and driv
en the to its quarters. Still the
crowd waited until the carriage drawn
by four white horses, which had been
standing for some time waiting for the
Governor, was driven rapidly away, and
the platoon of mounted police foil wed.
The occasion came to an end without
display, and all went home mi the rain
and with little ceremony.
The Governor’s Horse Guard scored a :
grand success in the dining given by that
command to the local military and the
State troops who took part in the inan
gial exercises.
The dinner was given in one of the
stores in the Brown block, on Wall
street, opposite the depot. The three
floors of the store were used, and long
capacity tables were placed in them. The seating
of the three floors was six hun
dred, and while the feast was in progresf
every chair had an occupant.
The grand military ball at the Kimball
house was one of the most brilliant af
fairs of the kind ever given in Atlanta.
The Kimball, at 9 o'clock, was in a
blaze of light. Every floor of the arcade
was illuminated. The ball room never
looked more beautiful.
guests, who began to arrive al
9:30 o'clock, were so numerous that they
not onlv tilled all the ball room, but thev
filled all the floors of the arcade aud I
many of the adjacent halls. The uni

brilliancy of the scene, as also did the
