LNTLBVIEW OF THE CITY AUTHORITIES WITH MR. LINCOL®. The city authorities yesterday, after their fare- Well interview with Mr. Buchanan, ied to Willards’ Hotel to welcome the President elect to this city. On arriving at the Hotel they were usbered into one of the — and in a few minutes it was announced that Mr. Lincoln was ready to receive them. Marching —— stairs in double file, the party with the rear ught up ? by the Chief of Police, ho. Goddard, were in- troduced into the presence of our future President. Mayor Berret having been introduced to Mr. Lincoln by Dr. Biake, Commissioner of Public Buildings, proceeded to address him as follows : Mr. Lincoln: As the President elect, under the Constitution of the United States, you are soon to stand in the august ce of a great nation of freemen, and enter u the discharge of the duties of the bigbest public trust known to our form of government, and under circumstances menacing the — permanency of the public, which have no parallel in 1! history of ourcountry. It is our earnest wish that you may be able, 28 we have no doubt you will, to perform the duties in such a manner as shall restore and barmony to our now distracted country, and finally bring the old ship of State into a harbor of safety and prosperity, thereb a the universal plaudits of the whole world. avail myself, sir, of this occasion, to say that the citizens of Washington, true to the instincts of constitutional liberty, will ever be found faithful to all the obligations of patriotism, and as their chief magistrate, and in accordance with the honored usage, I bid you welcome to the seat of Government. Mr. Lincoln replied 28 follows: Mr. Mayor: i thank municipal om pany you, for this welcome. And as itis the first time in my life, beg Present phase of politics has Presented itself ih this co: 'y, that I have said anything publicly within a region of country where the Institution of slavery exists, { will take this occesion to say that I think very much of the ill feeling that bas existed and still exists between the people in the section from whence I came and the people here, is dependent upon a misunder- standing of one another. { therefore avail myzelf of this opportunity to assure you, Mr. Mayor, and. all the gentlemen present, that I have not now, and never have had, any other than as kindly feelings towards you as to the people of my owa section. 1 have not now, and never have hed, any disposition to treat you !n any respect otherwise than as my owa neighbors. I have not now any og! a to withhold from you any of the benetits of the Constitution, under any circumstances, that { would not feel myself constrained to withhold from my own neighbors; and I hope, in a word, that when we shall become better acquainted— and I say it with great confidence—we shall like each other better. I thank you for the kindness of this reception. The members of the City Councils were then severally Introduced to the President elect. to- getber with a few of our private citizens, and after 2 few minutes of social conversation the party re- tired. In intreducing the Chief of Police. (Capt. Goddard,) Mayor Berret pleasantly added. “ the gentleman who attends to the peace of the city,” to which Mr. Lincoln laughingly replied, “1 pe he will continue in bis folly.” Everything — off pleasantly, and the visiters were nota ittle gratified by the ‘ western’? cordiality of their reception. TO-DaY Senator Crittenden bad an interview with Mr. Lincoln this morning, as also did several Repub- lican Senators, and a few delegations from New York and other States, representing various in- terests; but the vicinity of the Lincoln parlors was almost entirely free from the rush of place-bunters with which it was yesterday thronged.

James B. Clay, Sherman, and Henry Winter Davis, of the House, &e ,&c ; and most of our own rey 9 citizens, including, of course. all who consider themselves knowing on ‘“hos«’? a. Davis ae nae Dod — oR justrat re, were ing about , taking sketches of the build! and audience. About § o’clock Mr. Rarey wal. into his arena, an ele- vated earth-and-straw-covered platform, bounded by ropes, and made his bow. He is of good figure, but not robust, and wears neat side whis- kes and a mustache, altogether not quite the stripe of man one would imagine as a horse con- queror. Mr. Rarey commenced his lecture by a descrip- tion of bis experiences in ming, Se celebrated horre Cruiser, the story of which is fasiliar to most age “pe readers, but which was made in- teresting by Mr. Rarey’ imated recital. After some further remarks = lent mistakes in the manner of age | he » Which is natu- rally affectionate and disposed to be friendly, the — horse ae ico henits bet He is of legant proportions, (race horse,) and in a: r- ance aid 1 not come S to the ferocious Cru er of the mind’seye. ‘The lecturer, however, explained that the Cruiser of to-day is a very different look- ing animal from the Crutser of old, who, in his vicious, unhappy state, showed his temper in his eye and motions. but who now expresses the pos- session of a peaceful conscience. Cruiser was now put through a variety of motions, shook bands, or hoofs, with Rarey, went to bed in the straw with Rarey, &c., &c.,in the most docile manner Next was introduced a handsome chesnut horse that had been sent toMr Rarey for experiment- we He was described as not eminently vicious, but as baulky in harness and under the saddle. The animal was permitted to walk about for a few minutes to get the hang of the gas-lights and the idience. The lecturer then to manipu- late the bead and fore of the animal with light caressing touches, an having established a food understanding, adroltly aepped up the near fore leg in the manner so many times described Meantime Mr. Rarey was carrying on the work of his Jecture in desultory style at invervals of his work, and hereabouts k occasion to ridicule the assertion that he affected his control over horses by using drugs, the ofl of rhodium, &c. He thought that tying a bottle of oil to the nose of a Tefractory boy would be quite as likely to prove effectual as the same process upon a hore. In taming the horse it was necessary to give him time to try his strength with theoperator. Kind- ness, patience, and perseverance were the requi- sites The horse is so constituted that he will continue only a brief lg to offer resistance when he finds it ineffectual. Noticing the methods variously resorted to to subjugate the horse, he mentioned that the shyness of the animal under treatment about having bis head touched, was occasioned by the fact that its owner, having tried various means of compelling him to move when baulky, had bit the horse’s ear severely, occasioning the sensitiveness to touch witnessed! Mr. Rarey concluded his usual strapping, throwing, and taming his subject, and then proceeded to give some useful lessous in the | shard manner of mounting a horse with as little leverage as possible, and showed by experiment that It is easy to set foot in the stirrup and effect a seat, while the saddle simply rests upon the horse’s back without girt! -fastening: How to start a horse “‘ vot wont go,’? was next shown. Thi simply by drawing on the rein to the right or left, and turning him ina circle, a compulsion he cannot resist, until he gets dis- gusted and concludes it pleasanter to “go ahead.” A plain snafie-bit and single rein was recom- mended for breaking horses to the saddle Considerable amusement was now created by the introduction of a couple of Shetland ponies, one of which, weighing 77} pounds only, the lecturer supposed was the smallest full-grown horse in the known world. (Mr. Rarey here Picked the pony up in his arms and carried bim across the arena, causing great laughter.) Mr. R. said he introduced these ponies to ill ite the influence of climate upon animals. There w: no doubt that the ponies of Shetland had deterio- tated from the horse standard in size solely from the severe climate and poor fare they had been accustomed to for centuries. There was no telling how small they would grow if taken yet further north. [Laughter } Mr. Rarey next introduced a young horse, the Property of W.T. Naylor, of thiscity. A letter accompanying the horse, read by Mir. Rarey, stated that it was an unbroken colt, never yet backed. Several attempts had been made to mount him, but the parties had always been thrown. Rarey bad rather a time of it to get his inevitable straps upon this colt, who kicked up before and behind with no little vim Mopping bree she ge Les se handkerchief, and re- urning wi uoflaggin; itience to his charge, the great Merse-tanee a Est had bis sublect oa three legs, and after some puzzled wonderment the animal tarned a penitent look towards his conqueror, saying unmistakeably, ‘Its no sort of use, Mr. Rarey, 1 cave,” and down he wilted into the straw, and from thenceforth was a horse of another mind. . Mr. Rarey’s lecture was conclusive and sa' factory we F pbingemae' to every mind present. the value of his system of training. He was ened to throughout with the closest attention, and the disposition of the audience to applaud inces- santly was only restrained by the repeated requests of the lecturer, as the noise was calculated to dir- turb an animal so sensitive and nervous as the horse. Mr. Rarey gives one more lecture on Friday nigbt, when he will havea number of the most vicious animals procurable, to experiment upon. TuEatTER.—To-night the popular Ledger story dram: The Hidden Hand,” with Miss Gougen heim in her celebrated part of ‘‘ Capitola,” is the attraction at the theater. On to-morrow night, the occasion of Miss Gougenheim’s benefit, will be presented Bourci- cault’s affecting drama of ‘Jeannie Deans.” This charming comedienne bas performed most accept- ably here, and deserves a handsome benefit The pis, of ‘‘ Jeannie Deans” is a adaptation from Scott’s celebrated novel, ‘« The Heart of Mid Lotbian,’’ and will be brought out with all possible historical fidelity and attention to local coloring. The colebented | trial scene, for instance, will be reproduced in strict accordance in grouping and details, with the well known Scotch picture illustrative of that striking chap- ter of the tale.

The President entered the room Socomeresied by Dr. Blake and Hion. Horatio King, Pt General, and pro- ceeded to bid farewell to the several officers and clerks.
