facilities ; in the rise, progress and development of the com- mercial, manufacturing and industrial interests of the city ; in all these varied achievements the citizens of Albany have illustrated that Napoleonic spirit to which I have referred, and grandly done whatever they have undertaken. The success which attends this magnificent celebration of to-day is only another evidence that you have faithfully performed what you undertook to do, and demonstrates what Albany can accomplish when it is fully aroused and its old Dutch blood is stirred, especially when patriotically assisted by Irish enthusiasm, German zeal, Yankee ingenuity and the kind efforts of those of every other nationality -- American citizens all - who are proud to call this venerable city their home.
In all the years of its past history, this city has been com- paratively free from pestilence ; it has escaped the horrors of famine ; no great adversity has overtaken it; its citizens have enjoyed the blessings of health, prosperity and abun- dance ; kind Providence has watched over its destinies with tender care, and it is peculiarly fitting, in the light of these manifestations of Divine favor, that the people should give thanks to the Great Ruler of the Universe, and that we should mingle our prayers and rejoicings together :
" Let the heavens rejoice and let the earth be glad."
" Let the floods clap their hands ; let the hills be joyful together."
" Let the field be joyful and all that is therein, then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice.
" Let the sea roar and the fullness thereof; the world and they that dwell therein."
GLORIOUS MEMORIES OF THE DAY.
Every expression of rejoicing this day given is an evidence of your gratitude for all these blessings; they are also your tribute of respect to the many heroes who constituted your early settlers. Every bell that rang out on this morning air was in remembrance of the virtues of those who secured your chartered rights in the days of 1686. Every rocket that shoots up into the heavens is in honor of the soldiers who periled their lives in defense of your city behind the barri- cade of old Fort Orange. Every cannon that belches forth its thunder tones speaks praises in behalf of the brave men and earnest women who have preserved for you the priceless heritage of your city's freedom during the past two hundred years. Every banner that is grandly spread in the breeze,
381
every beautiful decoration that adorns your homes or places of business, every display of your citizen soldiery, every im- posing procession that is formed in your streets, every gun that is fired, every bugle note that is sounded, every flag that is unfurled, every song that is sung, every eloquent word that is uttered - all these are the tokens of your ap- preciation of the achievements of your patriotic Revolution- ary sires, of the inestimable value of municipal independence and chartered rights, and of all the glorious memories which cluster around this Bi-Centennial Day.
As the orator concluded, the large assemblage rose and applauded.
In response to repeated calls from among the audience, and which soon became general, President Cleveland, addessing them, said :
" CITIZENS OF ALBANY : I came here to-day as an invited guest to a family reunion. I desire to be modest and not mingle too freely in the congratulations and celebrations which belong more properly to you. I do not wish to sound a single note of discord, but I have heard so much of the Dutch, and of this being a Dutch city, so much talk of the olden time and of its customs, that when I remember that I dwelt two years among you, I wonder whether I am in the right place or not. At the risk of creating discord- ance, I will say that in my time Dutch was not the language of the town. The people spoke English, and to me words in English of kindness that I shall never forget. I am glad, however, that you got your charter. When I lived here I think you also had a charter, but, according to my remem- brance, it was a charter passed by the Legislature of the State in the first year I spent here and approved by me. I must not detain you longer, but I cannot refrain from express- ing to you my appreciation of the kindness with which you have received me, and from repeating the homely and old- fashioned wish - may the citizens of Albany and their descendants see many happy returns of the day."
He was followed by Secretary Bayard, who said :
" LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, CITIZENS OF ALBANY : I thank you most profoundly for your kindness in thus recog- nizing my presence among you. I came here as the friend
382
and companion of one whom it is my honor and pleasure to assist in the administration of our public affairs. It is my further pleasure as an American citizen to take part in the commemoration of honorable American traditions that so frequently take place in all parts of our country, and I rejoice to see them so worthily celebrated here. I have something in my traditional ancestry of the blood of the early Dutch founders of this city, and I thank you for the opportunity of saying so."
Secretary Whitney being loudly called for, re- sponded, saying :
"I will occupy but a moment of your time, ladies and gentlemen, in expressing to you that which must be the common sentiment of every one present inspired by such a beautiful day, by such a gathering of people, and by the interesting exercises at which we have been present for several hours. It is an additional pleasure to have the opportunity of thanking you for the courtesy shown us and of saying that I shall bear away grateful recollections of the reception we have received this afternoon. Nothing more than this expression, I am sure, is called for from me."
The programme ended with the audience singing "America," in chorus with the orchestra and Bi-cen- tennial chorus.
THE LEGISLATIVE REUNION.
THE REUNION A DECIDED SUCCESS - A LARGE ATTENDANCE.
The legislative reunion proved one of the most notable of the many features of the grand celebra- tion. Parlor fifty-seven at the Delevan house was thronged with members and ex-members of the Leg- islature.
AN INFORMAL REUNION.
The informal reunion was a most enjoyable and agreeable affair, and it was the unanimous voice of those present that Albany had added greatly to her
383
renown for hospitality. The members reviewed the procession from the spacious appartments assigned them, and subsequently were escorted to the rink by Col. Parker and the Troy Citizens' Corps, where they listened to the interesting exercises. At the close of these ceremonies they returned to the Delavan. In the evening they paid their respects to President Cleveland and Governor Hill at the capitol.

THE MUNICIPAL RECEPTION.
BRILLIANT SCENES IN THE MAGNIFICENT SENATE CHAMBER-THE DISTINGUISHED GUESTS PRESENT.
The municipal reception was held in the evening in the senate chamber in honor of President Cleveland and Secretaries Manning, Bayard and Whitney, and was the most pleasant kind of an informal gathering. The seats of the senators and reporters had been removed, leaving the entire room unobstructed for the occasion. Palms and ferns decorated the lieutenant-governor's desk as well as the clerks' circle, giving a tropical appearance to the room. Shortly after nine o'clock the President and ex-Mayor A. Bleecker Banks appeared, followed by Secretaries Manning, Bay- ard and Whitney and Governor Hill and staff and Mayor Thacher. The President, looking unchanged since his residence in Washington, seemed in the best of humor, and received his many Albany friends with a warmth of greeting characteristic of his easy man- ner. For over an hour and a half the stream of callers continued, and included State officials, mem- bers and ex-members of the Legislature and prominent guests of the city.
387

RECEPTION AT THE FORT ORANGE CLUB.
The subjoined invitation had been quite generally distributed : "Fort Orange club, reception. The honor of your company is requested at the club-house, on Thursday evening, July 22, 1886, from nine until twelve o'clock. Bi-centennial day of the city of Albany, 1686-1886."
A very delightful reception was so given to Presi- dent Cleveland and Governor Hill at the Fort Orange club at the conclusion of the public reception to the President in the senate chamber. It was half past ten when the President left the capitol, and on his arrival at the club-house he found most of the members had already assembled. The reception here was of an entirely informal character, and the invited guests included only gentlemen of prominence visiting in the city. No ladies were present, and if the scene lost the charm of their conversation and the brilliancy of their toilets, it was made necessary by the limited time at the disposal of the President. An orchestra rendered appropriate selections during the evening, and the decorations were artistically designed and excellently carried out. After all present had paid their respects to the eminent guests, in whose honor
389
the reception was given, the President and Governor were ushered into the supper room, where an elabo- rate collation was served. The table was decorated with the exquisite art which has made this club famous wherever its hospitality is known. Flowers and ferns served to bring out in stronger relief the glitter of the crystal and silver and the beauty of the viands. One novel feature in the decoration was the individual bouquet holders at each plate. These were in the form of lions, of porcelain, drawing a small vase upon wheels. On the face of the vase was an excellent photographic likeness of President Cleve- land. All of the guests preserved these holders as mementoes of the occasion.

THE DEPARTURE OF THE PRESIDENT.
The festivities were hardly opened when the Presi- dent was obliged to make his adieus to his hosts of the evening. Shortly after midnight, with Secretaries Bayard and Whitney and Private Secretary Lamont, he left the club-house amid the heartiest god-speeds. He was driven to the West Shore depot, where a special train was waiting to carry him to Washington. President Cleveland expressed himself as delighted with his brief visit. He always cherished the fondest memories of Albany, and was both surprised and pleased to see the royal and enthusiastic manner in
392
which her Bi-centennial was celebrated. Secretaries Bayard and Whitney also declared themselves charmed with the hospitality of the city.
THE PYROTECHNIC DISPLAY.
A VAST CONCOURSE OF FIFTY THOUSAND.
The spectacle witnessed at Washington park at night possessed merit and attraction for every one. No better spectacle had ever been seen in Albany. A crowd of immense proportions greeted the first rocket with cheers. Long before the time for the affair to commence a crowd surged around the ropes strung up to enclose the space set apart for the pieces. A careful estimate showed that there were fully fifty thousand people who witnessed the scene. The police had the greatest difficulty in keeping people out of the enclosure long enough to get started. Only by telling those next to the ropes that they were in great danger could the crowd be kept back. At first only the common council, the police and the press were allowed to go within the rope, but this bound was soon overstepped. By dark everything was in perfect readiness, all the pieces mounted and set, and no delay was experienced in getting the display started. The first pieces, though of minor importance, called forth immense applause. The shells began their flight into the air, and when the showers of beautiful colored balls of fire, the gold rain, the floating animals commenced to be evolved from them, the crowds settled down to enjoy the scene.
393
The four great pieces, Dongan handing the charter to Schuyler, the landing of Hendrick Hudson, the city coat-of-arms, and Niagara Falls, were excellent. Their beauty cannot be told. Raised up at a height of forty feet, they could easily be seen by every one. The applause for them was universal. The different displays numbered one hundred and seven.
After the spectacle was ended the vast crowd started down the hills. All the avenues leading in that direction were blocked for an hour and a half.
