The vast crowds of strangers whom a determination to witness the Inauguration brought to the Seat of Government, has already considerably thinned, and what remained of it was less visible yesterday than it would have been in consequence of the spell of cold and keen weather which set in on Thursday night. A great many strangers yet remain, however, and of these a considerable proportion will, no doubt, remain until after the end of the extra session of the Senate.
Among the very many distinguished strangers whom we have seen in the city, within the last three days, ought to be mentioned the honorable Gov. Morehead, of the State of North Carolina: Ex-Governor Owen, of the same State, and Ex-Governor Ritner, of Pennsylvania.—National Intelligencer.
