Handsome Testimonial to the Ability and Integrity of Gov, Mathews. Formal Reception to Gov. Jackson and the Inaugural Hop. A Memorable Day, Marked by Pleasure and Characterized by Success. The quadrennial spectacle of how a Governor is made was witnessed in Ibis city yesterday.

The dor is done. The old has been rung out and the new rung in, and today we enter upon the new The inaugural ceremony, with all of its pomp and circumstance, is over and well over. In spite of the hurry with which arrangements were made, success characterized everything and our people have cause to congratulate themselves. The social portion of the ceremony was especially happily consummated The hop was a complete success, socially and financially, and the litany guets of the city who were present will hear awav with them pleasant recollections of Wheeling's sociability and hospitality. One of the most pleat-ant and all'ccting incidents was a testimonial to Governor Mathews, hich must prove to him the esteem in which he is held by Wheeling people, and which he, as set forth in his response, fully realizes.

The proceedings of the day. both formal and social, are particularu-'d below. The Preparations The McLure Mouse otfi-e is a good index of the state of allairs about the city. It whether any important event is taking place in the outside city. Karly yesterday morn it began to exhibit signs of activity.

People gathered there from within and without Wheeling, of the Legislature clustered aliout in groups, carriages rolled to and fro in the streets and the knots of people standing on street, all looked as though they were waiting for something, which I something as the inaugural of GovI ernor Jacob li. Jackson. Major Algernon, Chief Marshal, seemed to be in tifty different places at once and still as many more more demanded his attention. It required considerable time to arrange the long i line of open carriages in front of the McLure Mouse, and still longer to seat in them the personages for whom they were designated. But all as accomplished at last.

The doling Men's Democratic Club, which led the procession, formed at the Court Mouse. Fifty men turned out in iine, ami the Club presented quite liue appearance as, headed bv Kramer's full band, it marched with bjnnersand guidons flying and took its position r.t the head of the column just at 11 o'clock, 1 the hour appointed for a start.

Mr. Mall was willing to thai dis tanee, hut thought the Council had I dignity to maintain. Other members thought that nropei courtesy had not been extended Council in the manner of the invitation, and finally it was decided not to attend Mr.

Wilaou'a resolution to that ell'ert ing adopted: Kcmlrtd, That the Mayor, on behall of the Council of tbecilv of Wheeling, he requested to acknowledge the receipt of the invitation for Council to at tend the Inaugural ceremonies of His Excellency, Governor Jacob B. Jackson, and to express to the committee of ar rangements their regrets that the latei ness of the hour of the receipt of thr invitation has prevented them from making suitable arrangements to attend iti a manner that would not compromise the dignity of the citv; and that not knowing what position, it any, were assigned to them, either iu the procession or at tin- Capitol, they are relunctantiy compelled to decline the invitation. Hut while tins was transpiring the body of the procession, all unaware, had formed and was on its way down Market street. The Procession. The procession got under way, as advertised ami took up its route toward the Capitol.

Arrived at the Capitol, the procession continued to the Fifteenth street front, where the escort drew up and the official party dismounted. A goodsizeit crowd had been waiting in and about the building and the number was rapidly increased at this time. The partv entered the Kxecotire Chambers and the crowd followed and the capacious rooms were overrun, though the main body of the crowd as outside, straining its eves at the balcony, in expectation of the gubernatorial appearance. But while they waited outside, an enjoyable affair was taking place within, which though mentioned on the programme.

was veiled, and was a complete sarprisc to moat of thoae present. A PlMMQt Episode The Executive Chambers were filled to oviitiowinc with and ladies. The Supreme Court, members of the Seuate and House of Representatives, their wives and daughters and the many persons from the city occupied eveiv available inch of space. It was at this moment, the last of his administrative career, that Governor Matthews experienced perhaps aa deep a happiness as at any time daring his career. He waa noticed to present himself the centre of the room, where he found himself, with J.

J. Woods, the centre of a cin le. At the same time a magmfictnt tea service ot solid silver was brought in and spread out in flittering array. It consisted of a saiverandtbe various vessels, all haudsomely wrought in polished and clouded sterling silver. Each article bore the initial in old English, and also the inscription: "Presented to Henry M.

Mathews by His Friends, March 4, 18S1." The elegant service was presented by I Senator Woods, who spoke us follows: SENATOR WOOD'S SPIItU. large number of the citizens of Wheeling, without regard to j)Oluical belief, have asked me I to say farewell tj you ou their behalf. This duty is both pleasant and painful. It is because it gives to thtui 1 an opportunity of testifying to their apprecution of the ability integrity of 1 your cihcial career, the kindness and courtesy oi your private life and the 1 hospitaiitv and of your social habits. It is painful because it is cedent to the severance of the warm sjtiai ties which founded upon your advent us, and liave grown stronger and harder to break with each succetding year.

ftetiaii 01 mese citizens i pnrcnt you with this tea set of silver. It is presented as a token, not merely of regard and respect, but of frimdth ip. Iidingbroke once said, long novitiate of acquaintance should precede the vows of friendship." Be assured, sir, that our acquaintance with you has been such that we have no fears in making a public protestation of these vows. "Friendship," said Lord Clarendon, "hath the skill and observation of the best physician; the diligence and vigilance of the best nurse; and the tenderness and patience of )i3 fnfht mother." Our iut'S towards you partake of all these qualities. Friends will watch all your lite and acts with discerning skill and observation, with untiring vigilance and diligence; and with a tenderness and patience which is only surpassed in oucfir another relation of life.

It was Cicero, I believe, who first made an observation on which has since become i "Friem improves happiness and mis cry by the doubling of our joy aud tie dividing of our grief." What a day may bring forth no man knoweth. Into the secrets of the dim future we all shrink from peering. Whatever of joy may fail to your lot in the years to come will, we arc cure, be doubled, multiplitd and intensified by the reflection that it is sharud br hundreds of other hearts. And should the All Wiflt one in His indiscrutable wisdom send to you any sorrow or grief many willing hearts will divide, mitigate and alleviate its pangs. Please accept this gift in the spirit in which it is offered.

May your luture be as blight and spotless as the polished surface of these pieces. We will long your many acts of kindness, friendship and hospitality. What you have been to us and don for us ill never be forgotten. The riAjr forget thcrtiiun Tuition I. it hen.

And now as my term of office has clt.sed, and the trusts with which I have heen honored are about to be assumed by my successor and I am about to find a home elsewhere, and there resume the duties of a private citizen, I can, without being misunderstood, speak "from the fulness of the heart During my residence here I have not been unobservant of the material and social interests of this city. The ability and energy with which her vast enterprises are conducted, the integrity and commendable ctpni of her business men, her public spirit and enlarged charity, and the high standard of propriety, intelligence and refinement which characterize her society are unsurpassed in any city within tiie limits of the I'uion. Here, the thrift and industry of the North happily blending with tiie generosity ami hospitality ot the old dominion have resulted in a society conservative ly progressive, wealthy without ostentation, intelligent without pedantry, hospitable without prodigality, qnietlv noright and pure ithout being pharisaic.

The handsome token, so beautiful in itself, trom political, but personal friends of all political parties, is beyond all value to be associated forever with the most pleasing incident of iiiv life and regarded by my family as a priceless heritage, liut I forbear, for "The heart feels most hen the lips move not. Aud the eye a gentle good bye." A flittering stillness, as heconpluded, was followed by warm applause, and the heartiest congratulations were tendered the Governor and Senator Woodr. A few moments were in examining the elegant testimonial and commenting upon its beauty, and then came a general movement toward the balcony.

The last honors hail been paid to the retiring Governor, and all eyes were turned toward the rising sun. The Inaugural Ceremony net as the hands of the Capitol clocks approached the figures twelve, the retiring and incoming (iovernors stepped together npon the platform in thetvntre of the west balcony of the Capitol, and were greeted with prolonged cheers from the orowd below. The time occupied by the testimonial incident was sufficient to allow a larsre multitude to congregate on the Capitol pavement, the sidewalk opposite and upon the steps and at the windows oi the adjacent dwelliRgs. The Young Men'a Club had countermarched and were drawn in line facing the balcony, while the band had taken position upon the upper balconv'and was filling tbe air with mnaic. When the official party left the Executive Chambers, it iu preceded and followed by dense crowd, which filled the corridors, racked the balcony, throned the wiudome and overflowed into the square On tke balcony standing room was at a high premium, and the two Governors, when they stood upon the platform surrounded by the ladies and gentlemen, had scarce breathing room.

Preciselr at high noon Governor Mathews addressed the crowd and said: "Ladies and Gentlemen and Fellowcitizans, 1 have the pleasure of now presenting to you the Hon. Jacob B. your uext Governor." 1 Governor then, in a full round voice, delivered his inaugural address. full xt of theinaagura) address will bti found on the third At the conclusion of the adiliess.Gov.

A lew congratulatory words from the Judge announced that from a private citizen a Governor had been made. Chief Marshal Alderson announced that the exercises of the inauguration would conclude with Rev. C.

P. Masden otiered a brief and fervent supplication, invoking the blessinir of the Almighty upon the uew Executive, upou his administration and upon theh'tate in the persons of its people. This closed the exercises and ihe crowd, after three cheers, to disperse. The new Governor was surrounded by his friends and after Lurried congratulations, the party reenter, their and the procession returned to the McLure House. Tho Uecept.cn was held in the Senate Chamber, beginning as soon alter nine oYiock as the guests began to appear.

Governors Jackson and Mathews received the respects, the former with a happy mingling of atl'ectionate regard and the warm cordiality for which he is noted, and the latter with the courtly and polished easo of manner hich is characteristic ot him. The presentations were gracefully made bv Hon. K. Cracraft and Capt. George If.

Moll'ett. The reception was continued until 11 o'clock, by which hour every person at the Capitol hail wished a pleasant and prosperous administration for the new Governor, and long life and happiness to the retiring one. The Senate chamber was prepared for this occasion, the result rellects the greatest credit upon the skill and taste of the ladies under whose direction it was done. The llo.jr was clear of desks and all other paraphernalia of legislation, and was a perfect dJawing room. The desks of the President and clerk werrf fairly buried under masses of dark evergreen, relieved and there with bright (lowers.

The walls, chandeliers and windows were profusely decorated with and hunting was gracefully draped about the windows and over the galleiies. I'pon the walls were numerous wreaths and other designs wrought in fancy paper, the panels on either side of the President's chair being respectively decorated with a horseshoe and clover leaf of the loveliest natural flowers, the designs being emblematic of the wishes of good fortune for the new administration. From the reception room guests drifted naturally and easily to the other end of the hall, where the music and mirth disclosed the presence of the ball room. The Inaugural Kail. Tin- inauguration day wound up at with the grand hull iu the hall of the House of Delegates.

IJut such a change! livery trace of the toilsume work that for the past Hix works has marked the hall had disappeared and in its place was all the fairy paraphernalia of tlie ball room. The glittering lamps lit up a scene of unusual brilliance and beauty. Papers, books and defks had vanished as fT In magic and left a smooth and level surface of linen that ot itself fairly tempted to the dame. F'ewers, evergreen and hunting were disposed wherever grace and taste could dictate, combining to dec a room that as all the fondest Terpstchorean could desire. At half after ten o'cloc all doubt of the success oi the ball bad vanished, and ttic hall was comfortably filled with an admirably made up company.

When the ball was at its height, the scene was one which miuht well have inspired the descriptive pencil ami drawn djwn the devine alllatus upon a writer. The rattle of silks, the rustleof satin, the glitter of jewels, the blaze of the gas and the sweet pulsing of the music were all in keeping with an occasion graced bv the wealth, tlie beauty ami the intellect of theSiate, in honor of the man whom the people delightj-d to honor. Here was no wction but the State, ro creed but friendship's. It was a rare sight. nic wMBLura raorut, in spite of all expressions to the eon trary, were there in full force and this I end of the State well sustained its reputation for fair women and gallant men.

Among the gnes's were many of our best society people, represented in the persons of grave middle age, reviving by such scenes the memories of the past, ami in the young, in the tirst Hush of life's social enjoyment. THE STATE WA8 WSLI. especially that portion the population of which has heretofore called Gov. Jackson a townsman. The delegation of ladies and gentlemen from Parkersburg was conspicuous from various commendable reasons, and not less so were the representatives of other localities.

THE TOILETTES wtre unusually elegant, both in style and material, and the display of taste was no less remarkable. The costumes of three or four of our Wheeling ladies were the subjects of admiring comment during the evening, and the Parkersburg ladies were arrayed with that richness and taste for which they are famed throughout the State. A nutnbe of ladies appeared in demi toilettes, or walking costumes, the studied neatness and simplicity of wliirh formed an admirable foil to set off the brilliant reception dresses of the others. Many wore bright colored hats, from the broad Gainedtorough to the briiuleas turban and still otheis varied the bead dresses with gay ostrich so and becoming when properly chosen. The display of jewelry, while quite rich, was not ostentatious and over done.

Diamonds spark led and pearls glimmered in every direction, but not a lady in the room deserved the criticism of jieing overdressed. ine gentlemen who in the dancing were clad in foil evening dress. as a rale, though quite a number conventionality and donned the equally gracelnl frock, were invariahly worn, though discarded at supper time, contrary to a dictate of fashion, which that gloves once worn shall be continued through the ereniog, renewed aj often as THE OAXCIXQ began at 10 o'clock, and from the half couples who first took the door, the number swelled as til the room vu comfortably filled. It was fortunate in this respect, that the company was just large enough to permit every one to dance aud yet avoid a jostling, suffocat- ing crowd. The amooth linen formed a splendid dancing surface, and over it the dancers glided lightly in the en- trancing waltz and graceful lancers.

Kramer's full orchestra furnished the music and produced suck strains as only it can. The music was new and well selected and its perfect cadence was complimented by most of the participants. The programme of the dances was as follows: Grand Manh. jIU. Quadrille, rolka.

Quadrille, Waltz, MaaJriiW, Polks, re. Walu. YiryluU Reel. TUB SITPKR was spread in the chamber of the Supreme Court, and was conducted with a degree of excellence fully in keeping with the other features of the hop. Mrs.

Ziegenfelder was the culinary architect, and hud designed a bill of lure which was found entirely satisfactory. A well trained force of waiters facilitated matters, and is a not unimportant matter on an occasion of this kind. Supper was announced at 11 o'clock, and from that hour until 1:30 the Kpicurean delights of a well stocked table contested the Tcrpsicborean pleasures of the dance. At the latter hour the dancing was resumed, and held undisputed sway until a reasonable hour this morning. TIIK IIOI' WAS A SITCfSS and a rare one at that.

It was admirably managed and the perfection of the details had much to do with the success of the evening. Where everyone is pleased and carries away pleasant recollections of an atlair of this where all is pleasure, without drawback or blunder, then must it be a success. Such was this. And so closed a day which will he memorable in West occasion which belongs to the State and was of the occasion of hich Gov. Jackson should be proud, which liov.

Mathews should remember uith profound pleasure and which was a credit to the city of Wheeling. BELLAIRE. Kocioty Mutters and General Nik Business wasreported dull throughout the city yesterday.
