Nkw Yoiik, April 28. When the sun rose over fuir Munhuttan on this day of days In her history of patriotic pa geants he found a cloudless dome awuitiug him. It was the day of honor to Grunt, the general, tho American, the dedication of the 8500,000 monu ment and tomb New York city hud prepared for him, and the celebration of the 75th anniversary of his birth. The ceremonies proper began at sun rise, when from the tall flag polo near the tomb was unfurled the immense American flag furnished by the Daugh ters of the Revolution, which will fly ulght and day in fair weather and foul, until tho winds bhall have worn it away and the bunshave faded its colors. At the same time the marines on the warships were piped to quarters and alighted from their carriages ut tho monument stands und took the places assigned to them in readiness for the oratorical and musical ceremonies at 10:30 o'clock. Vast crowds had arrived at the tomb as curly us eight o'clock und till who wero fortunuto enough to possess tick ets entitling them to scats on stands took their places in the gaily-decked structures and prepared for tho long wait that was to ensue before tho ar rival of tho notables and military pageant.

Tho tokens wero reverently laid on tho sarcoph agus by Gen. J. P. Gordou, while his comrades stood by with uncovered heads. Tho exercises commenced with tho singing of "America." A solemn sileuco then fell on tho dense crowd as tho venerable Pishop John P. Newman in voked tho blessings of Heaven upon tho ceremonies. A mighty cheer arose as President McKinloy moved to the speaker's stand to deliver his address. Ho was introduced by Mayor Strong. As tho president removed his hat, cries came from all sides: "Put on your hat; we'll excuse you." The president, however, stood with bared head, de spite the uipplug wind that swept across the exposed stand, and delivered his address as follows: Follow-Citlzcns: A great life, dedicated to tho welfare of tho nation, hero tluds Its earthly coronation. Eveu 11 this day lacked the 1m presstveness of tho ceremony aud was devoid of pageantry It would still bo memorable be cause it is tho nulversary of tho birth of ono of tho most famous and best beloved of American soldiers.

His Individuality, his hearing and speoch, his slinplo ways had a flavor of rare and unlquo distinction and his Americanism was bo true nnd uncompromising Hint his iinmo will stand for nil time as tho embodiment of liberty, loy alty and national unity. Victorious In th work which under IMvIno Provldenco ho waa called upon to do, clothed with almost Hmltlcsa power, he was yet ono of tho pcoplo; patient, patriotic and Just. Success did not disturb tho even balance of his mind, whllo fnino was pow erless to swervo him from tho path of duty. Aa great as he was In war, ho loved peaco nnd told tho world that honorable arbitration of differ ences was tho best hopo of civilization. With Washington and Lincoln, Grant has an exalted placo In history and the uffectlons or ULYGSES S. GRANT, tho people. To-day his memory Is held Im equal esteem by those whom ho led to victory and by those who ncccpted his generous tcrmjr of peaco. Tho veteran leaders of tho bluo and tho gray hero meet not only to honor tho nnmo of tho departed Grant, but to testify to tho llv rcality of a fraternal national spirit which has. triumphed over tho dlfcrcnccs of tho past and transcends tho limitations of sectional lines. Its completion, which wo pray God to speed, will be tho nation's greatest glory. It isi right, then, that Gen. Grant should havo a memorial commensurato with his greatness, nnd that his last resting placo should bo tho city of his choice, to which ho was so attached, in life, and of whoso ties ho was not forgetful, oven In death. Fitting, too, is It that tho great, soldier should sleep bosldo tho noblo river on. whoso banks ho first learned tho art of war, and of which ho becatno a master and leader without a rival. Hut lot us not forgot tho glorous distinction., with which tho metropolis nmong tho fair sls torhood of American cities has honored his llfo and memory. With all that riches and sculpt uro can do to render tho edlllco worthy of tho' man, upon n site unsurpassed for magnificence, has this monument been reared by New York, as a perpetual record of his illustrious deeds In. tho certainty that as tlmo passes around It will, asscmblo with gratltudo and rovcrenco and ven eration men of all climes, races and nationali ties. Now York holds In its keeping tho precious dust of tho silont soldier, but his achievements, what ho und his bravo comrados wrought for mankind, are In tho keeping of 70, 000,00.) American citizens, who will guard tho sacred hcrltago forever and forever. Mr. McKinley's address was followed by thoso of Gen. Porter and Mayor Strong. Almost every reference to Grant in all tho speeches wus wildly cheered. Tho land parado was waited for af tor tile conclusion of the ceremonies. Tho sky became overcast with clouds and tho wind increased uutil it almost howled around tho trees. Suddenly in tho cloud of dust from the south, between tho two black lines of people, who seemed to meet in the perspective, camo tho nodding plumes of tho sol diers. On they marched, an endless lino of white and red and bluo and gray. First passing on tho west sido of tho monument oval and returniug on the north road under tho monu mental arch, theypussed the president in review, und then back agalu into tho black background of humanity and tho white clouds of dust. Surrounded by his cabinet, his generals and his. friends, President MeKinley stood and reviewed tho grandest military pageant, ever seen in this city. Thero were reg ular soldiers, regular sailors, national guurdsmeu of tho sea aud laud forces,. Grand Army veterans, confederate vet erans and tho striplings who, in tho future, may fight as gallantly us their fathers did. As flvo o'clock, tho hour at which; President MeKiuley was to goon boarci MRS. JULIA DENT GRANT, the Dolphin, approached, the crowd oo the pier where ho was to embark grew larger and larger until several thou sand had assembled. They greeted tho president and his party with a. cheer which was re-echoed from hun dreds of steamers which, having come up the river in tho naval parade, had taken positions in rather inconvenient, proximity to tho Dolphin. Tho presi dent set foot on tho deck of tho Dol phin, tho presidential salute of 21 guna was fired, and the fleet of steamers, blew whistles until the sonnd of the firing was scarcely audible.
