It should come from one whose information grasps the material interests, not only of New England, bat of the Union: who is familiar, not onlv with manufactures and mechanics, but with commerce and trade; and whose researches extend also to that older and nobler science, the reverent culture of the soil itself. It would be well too, we think, that he should be one who, holding some national charge allied to all these pursuits! can speak the broad and unsectional word which embraces tbe welfare of the whole Amariegn peo- Rle, and welds their sympathies as well aa their iteiesta closer together.

If to these qualities wa can add the orators magnificent voice and port, bis elegance of declamation, and his copious thought and power of illustration, we iball lack nothing: And nothing certainly do we lack; for I now have the pleasure of presenting to yon the fitly chosen speaker of the day Hon. George B. Loring, Commissioner of Agriculture of the united States. Hon. George B.

Loring then delivered aa oration, which is printed on page 2. his hair. Is gray, and Ms face looks older, but there Is the name patrician air; and with the familiar tranquillity and ooUoqulal eaee he begins to speak. He spoke, perhaps, for two hours, perhaps for half an hour. But there was no sense of the lapse of time.

His voice was somewhat leu strong, but It had all the old force and the old music. He was in constant action, never vehement, never declamatory in tone, walking often to and fro, every gesture expressive, art perfectly concealing art. It was all melody and grace and magic, all wit and paradox and power. The critic, himself an orator only second to Phillips in power, cannot enough admire the superb art of the speaker in investing an occasion that is really no occasion of pressing moment with all the urgency of a crisis. Referring to Burke's dictum that the oocasion was the orator, Mr.

Curtis proceeds But here Is an orator without an antagonist, with no measure to urge or oppose, whose simple theme upon a literary oooaalon Is the public duty of the scholar. But be touches and stirs and inspires every listener; and as he quietly ends bis discourse with a stansa of Lowell's that he has quoted a hundred times, every hearer feels that It Is an historic day, and that what he has seen and heard will be one of the traditions of Harvard and of Fh. B. K. Was it not worth while to have procured this sensation, to produce such exaltation among such minds as were there gathered 7 Mr.

George William Curtis parts his hair in the middle, but he has never held himself too fine for use. Mr. Holmes's tribute is printed in the current Atlantic Monthly. After claiming the relationship with the orator by way of a common Dutoh ancestry (Vondel-Wendell), the poet goes on Like our Motleys John of Barnveld, you have always been inclined TO speak well somewhat frankly to let ns know your mind. And the Mynheers would have told you to be cautious what you said.

Or else that silver tongue of yours might cost your precious head. But we are very glad youve kept it; It was al ways Freedoms own, And whenever Besson chose it she found a royal throne; You have whacked us with your sceptre; our backs were little harmed. And while we rubbed our bruises we own we had been charmed. foet, between the towers.

The roof over the centre of this section is eighty feet from the flow. At each corner of this open space la a staircase leading to ths galleries.

The upper hall, aa the gallery at the front of the building la called, is reached by two staircases from the main flow and four from the lower hall. It Is 114x250 feet, with a projection 80x126 feet, and It is estimated that It will seat 10,000 persona. Two staircases lead to rooms, 80x30 feet. Id the towers. The two ids galleries are each 63x420 feet and are open at either aide, thus giving a fine chance for displaying the goods exhibited there, and also firing opportunities fw looking down upon the main floor.

A gallery of the same width aa the others connects them at the southerly end of the building. Leading from this and directly In front of it Is the band stand. The roof and a large part of the woodwork has heen painted a cream colw, with dark brown trimmings fw tbs posts; the Iron trusses are dark rod.

Today has been anything but a day for festivities and prooessiona. But the festivities and processions had their way, though the northeast wind did Mow, and though umbrellas and waterproofs gave a sad look to the streets through which the procession passed; ladder even than those portions of the highways where there were no bystanders. HisExoei-lency of Massachusetts left the State House escorted hy his staff and the Cadets, and after calling at the Vendome, finally arrived at the exhibition building, along with their several Excellencies and staffs of Vermont, Rhode Island and Maine, the city government of Boston mid mayors of other cities, some of the executive committee of the institute, the orator, the chaplain and other dignitaries of the day and the occasion, at about twelve oclock, a full hour behind time. All of the procession were In carriages, except the esoort of polios and military, and all that walked oh foot or rode in carriages found the way anything bnt pleasant to travel. When it was nt sand it was mad, and over all and through all the wind blew and the mist soaked, and It was nt at all pretty to look st or feel.

Bnt the disagreeable Impressions faded ont when the building was reached. The high roof, the bunting, the parti-oolored domes, and other shelters for goods on exhibition, the moving crowd, made np a gay picture. Workmen were still busy getting things Into place; hammering, sawing and rumbling tracks were heard at every hand. It was not very noisy, however, and, thank goodness no tinkling pianos, no resounding organs, no clanging bells, no rushing waters added their semi-musical tones to the din, and the.spacions halls and aisles and galleries were reasonaMy quiet. Hail I to the Chief resounded through the building from the Medford Brass Band, and much of the noise ceased, and two thousand people sat around, or stood in the galleries or on the staircases, in expectant silence.

Some other hundreds, however, did not sit, nor stood they still. On the edges of the crowd there was sound of busy feet in constant motion, and the voices of minister, governor and orator were, therefore, nearly inaudible, or at least their speech could not be clearly distinguished. Nor were those who were seated in front of the platform much more fortunate. The voices were wafted up among the frame pieces of the roof, and there they stayed. Back of the governor were seated the officials and guests of the State and the city.

Behind them on a higher platform was placed ths band. The speakers forms stood ont against a background of white cloth on which was emblazoned the sign of a fertilizing manufactory. The speakers eyes met st the back of their hearers ths stately marble temple of a soda-water fountain. On either aide were seen trophies of hardware, pyramids of wines and perfumery, working models of pumps and elevators, and down the long nave stretched a vista of glazed cases, in which were displayed dry goods, glass and china ware, guns and cutlery, and a thousand other kinds of goods, wMch served to indicate the extent and variety of the Ingenuity and taste of the mechanics and manufacturers of New England, and the fair was begun. THE MANAGEMENT.

TEE BUIUHNO which has been erected for the exhibition Is os the extension of Huntington avenue. It was designed by Mr. Alden Frink, and la substantial brick structure, 680x408 feet, with two brick towers, 80x80 feet, placed on either side of tho main entranee, and is the largest building of tho kind In the United States, with the exception of the famous Main Building at tho Centennial, Ttye ground upon jrhlclt Its foundation! Ud laid la hard, cottptot land and gravel which rests Upon a solid bed of Olay; the foundation stone from the same ledge as the tone used for the cathedral on Washington street and many of the Back Bay dhnrohes; the walls, which are of brick, are of the thickness prescribed by the inspector of buildings In tee city of Boston, and do not show a crack in their whole length. The factor of strength la four for the Iron work and six for ths wood arork. For of ths large columns mat supports the main roof and portions of the gallery floors Is estimated by ths engineers to have a dead load of roof, floors, of 118J8T pounds; fhs greatest pressure of wind and snow combined, 9S.33T pounds; greatest live load or a crowd as groat aa possible, 81,900 pounds; total, MMN pounds.

It is not probable that all these maximum forces would be In operation slmsltansons-ly, bnt It baa been assumed that they can be, and a form ot construction baa been adopted that will withstand four times the amount of these eombld foroes before yielding, no entire structure baa beau built la the same substantial manner. in ixs construction square feet of lumber, bricks, 4000 perches of stone and 404100 square feet of glass have heen died. The building la surrounded by a fence eight fast high. At about the middle of the easterly Bids and at the Huntington-av-enua front Ueket-offioas, gates and turnstiles have been erected, those at the latter entranee being built upon a wide and substantial platform which extends from ths avenue to the several entrances at that end of ths building. Tbs turnstiles are similar to those used at the Centennial.

The Wxathxb today has been anything but agreeable, all of the discomforts of a northeasterly storm having asserted their presence, with emphasis. The thermometer at sunrise this morning was56; at noon 62. The Order of Dynamitic Irishmen is in session at New York. A presumed secret conclave, all its proceedings are doubtless reported in full to the British Government. This informing" penchant of Irishmen frustrates all their terrible conspiracies against the English.

Rents are rising in this city, both for dwelling-houses and stores. This is justifiable, as the advance in material and labor makes it far more expensive to build at this time than last year. Bnt landlords should not so put up rates as to drive out good tenants, and the latter should consent to such an adjustment of rents as the enhanced cost of the materials in building reasonably warrants. Mb. Booxw alter, the Democratic candidate for governor of Ohio, took the trouble durirg the last presidential canvass to call the men in his employ together for the purpose of informing them that although he should vote for General Hancock, they could vote for whom they pleased." This was an impertinent act, and the major part of the employers probably did better by taking it for granted that thei workmen would act as they chose, without special leave.

Independent workingmen are not wont to crave permission to exercise the rights of freemen. The attempt to make political capital for Mr. because of his assurance of freedom of action to his men will amount to very little. Self-reliant citizens will not fancy the idea of admitting that the power of controlling their ballots is lodged in the hands of anybody but themselves. Boston as a Manufacturing Market.

Dr. Loring, in his brilliant rhetorical exhibition of the giant strides made by American manufacturing, fitly begins by stating one of the important practical effects which, it is hoped, will flow from the display which, opening here today, will be continued from year to year. This is the establishment of a permanent and central market for machinery and manufactures in the city of Boston. No greater material good could befall our city than the recalling of that business which by virtue of locality should never have been permitted to go elsewhere, Boston is the natural seat for transacting that part of the manufacturing and mechanical operations of New England included in disposing of the products of its mills and workshops throughout the United States and the world. Any exhibition that will assist in bringing back to Boston any portion of the trade which should never have been diverted from it appeals warmly to the public spirit of all who take pride in the growth and prosperity of this municipality.

A Dong Sxxr Forward. The statute enacted to enforce the provisions of the fourteenth amendment to the United States constitution has proved practically inoperative in the city of New York. Colored persons have been unable to procure entertainment at hotels, not so much because of a personal dislike to the race on the part of the landlords as on account of the objections made by their white guests, who, of course, make up in overwhelming majority among the travelling and tavern-abiding public. Means to circumvent the law are easily found, the readiest being those habitually used by innkeepers in the case of other patrons whose presence in the house may be for any reason obnoxious to guests or landlord; it is only necessary to charge an exorbitant price, and the guest takes the hint and departs. This state of things has oftentimes been the cause of much genuine distress among decent colored persons, who, being driven from respectable hostelries.have been compelled to seek for warmer welcome at aecond or even third class taverns.

Nor has itheir presence been desired at reading-rooms, or other resorts of an elevating character, only those haunts of a disreputable sort -have opened their doors to the colored youth of the city. Unable to contend against these unbecoming prejudices, the colored people -of New York are making an effort to raise funds for building a large hotel of a good class, in which accommodations shall be within the means of yonng men of moderate and which shall contain the rooms of the association already established, and known as the Colored Young Mens Christian Association. They expect to make such a hotel pay all the expenses of the association, even with the reading, room, lecture-hall and other attractions that they desire to add to what there IS IT THE TURNING POINT! The outside public has no other recourse than to acoept the statements of the physicians attending upon the President. There is no reason why they should not possess the confidence of the country, as their conduct of the extremely difficult case committed to them has not been such as to weaken faith In their professional capacity. Millions of people tacitly recognize the truth of this as sertion by reproducing In their own feelings a counterpart of the hope or anxiety the physicians Infuse into their daily bulletins.

Everybody knows that sustained spirits form a remedial agency which cannot be spared in a sickroom. It is half the battle far the patient to believe he will recover. President Garfields abiding assurance of his ability to pull through" has been a large component of that fortitude and endurance no amount of physical suffering could en tirely master. His touching letter to his aged mother, written before the recent relapse, for the purpose of quieting her fears, evinces the Presidents unconquerable conviction of his restoration to health. Next, as a healing fao-tor, to this encouraging mental condition of the President, and the strong purpose to live, is the buoyancy of Dr.

Bliss, which has given way only once to depression. Dr. Blisss ever hopeful bearing is an incalculable element of help both at the White House and among the American people. What dense clouds of gloom he has driven away from the public mind by his cheering interviews, when the community was just on the point of despairing of the priceless life which still clings by the frailest of tenures to its earthly tabernacle. Dr.

Blisss complete trust in the Presidents vitality has braced the popular heart in moments of the deepest anxiety. The Presidents case has now reached about this point, if accounts, official and semi-official, can be believed. His wound is half healed, and the statement that no farther trouble of consequence can result from the bullet has the quasi-indorsement of some of the distinguished men professionally oaring for the President. Such a description of the present state of the wound cannot be meant as an exact diagnosis. The proper interpretation of the language would probably be that blood poisoning or other fatal effects cannot hereafter supervene from the Injuries caused by the deadly missile.

Making all due allowance, and renewed grounds of hope still remain, inasmuch as the rapid progress of the wound towards a healthy state leaves the physicians to bestow their undivided attention upon repairing the shattered digestive system of their patient. The bulletins show how far they have succeeded in this, and how the life of the President is upheld. This mornings official narrative is more encouraging than ever, representing the temperature of the body as normal, and his pulse as considerably diminished. FORTY YEARS PROGRESS. Dr.

Doring is never otherwise than eloquent, but the most eloquent portions of his address made at the opening of the New England Manufacturers Exhibition are those in which rhetoric hss no share. He presents certain statistics, the figures of which tell a story much more vividly than words can present it, no matter what skill were em ployed. In a series of tables he shows the prices of labor paid in different epochs at various places, and from these tables several interesting deductions can be drawn. It appears that in the cotton and woollen mills of Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts the advance in wages has been from SO to 100 per within the forty years ended last year, and that within the same period the daily hours of labor have been reduced from 11 hours in New Hampshire, and 12 hours in Massachusetts, to 11 hours in Maine and New Hampshire and 10 hours in Massachusetts. 'Within this period other notable advances have been made which cannot be entirely expressed in figures.

The social condition of the factory hand has been generally raised, thanks to a liberal provision of public schools and other means of intellectual advancement; the em ploymentof yonng children has been stopped; the system of savings banks, greatly extended, has lent its aid in encouraging the workman to set aside some of his earnings against possible contingencies the production of goods has been largely increased and their quality much improved. These last material advantages have been due to the Influence of a protective tariff, which has also exerted an indirect effect on the improvements noted in the operative's condition. Nor is it possible to indicate in figures the great advances made in machinery and mill construction and in the taste displayed in the designs for printed and woven fabrics which have been accomplished in less than half a century. Borne other figures included in the statistical portions of Dr. Dorings address have a special interest hereabouts.

In a list of twenty cities in the Union Boston occupies the following positions: Fourth in the number of manufacturing establishments and average daily wages paid for skilled labor; third in the average daily wages paid for ordinary labor fifth in the amount of capital invested, number of hands employed, amount of wages paid and value of material consumed and goods manufactured. There has been some danger of certain of the most excellent and characteristic things in and about Boston drying up with dignity and dying of dpcorum and self-oonscionsnesa. But this will not happen so long as any of-the salt of the elder and really active and producing era of Boston culture is about. The selection of Wendell Phillips for Phi Beta. Kappa orator at Cambridge this year elicited expressions of horror from many, which were followed by solemn "We told you sos after the orator had dealt his dynamite around.

But there were many others, it appears, who daed and even enjoyed the magnificent philippic. Among these, as their published encomiums testify, were such men as Rev. James Freeman Clarke, Mr. George William Curtis, and Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes.

Mr. Clarkes glowing account of the occasion as a unique and preoioua experience has already been printed. Mr. Curtiss has just appeared. In the Editors Easy Chair of Harpers Monthly.

Mr. Curtis declares that "the great commencement event of the summer was Wendell Phillipss oration at the centennial anniversary of thaven-erable Ph. B. K. at Cambridge." He dwells on every incident as a delightful memory: Mr.

The House of Commons is still the highest example in the world of the practice of the free democratic-republican self-government which it introduced into the modern world, whether we look st its illustrations of statesmanship in constructive legislation, at its individual leaders, at its freedom of debate end equality of democratic spirit, or at its order and discipline.

The land bill just passed Is a monument of well-balanced conservative legislation moulded by (he joint efforts of men diametrically opposed to one another In every interest, public and private, social and political. Gladstone and Salisbury, North oo to and Bright, and half a dozen other masters of debate are unmatched by the parliamentary talent of any country. Nor does any parliamentary body worthy of comparison with the House of Commons contain such elements ms the Home Balers, the obstructionists, and individual eccentricities such ms Dord Randolph Churchill, the enfant terrible of the Tories, Dabonchfere and Brad-laugh. The House hss been, for the moment, untrue to its character for magnanimity and fair play in keeping Bradlangh out of doors though not in throwing him out when he proposed a test of force and will probably take the back track at the next session. Bnt Its patience, dignity and self-control under the exasperating annoyance of the Irish members who have been only truthfully pictured in Punch's illustrated parliamentary chronicles as half-tipsy pigs, more than redress the balance.

This fair play to a despised handful of really unworthy members hss been the more admirable because their swinish behavior was aggravated by the circumstance that the efforts at reform which they have obstructed were wholly In the interest of their peculiar constituents, locality and section. What makes this combined breadth and sternness of order of the House the more and specially to be admired is that there is se little of what might ha called personal decorum required or expected of the members, who sit with their hats on and otherwise conduct themselves as if they were In a corn exchange or stock market. A pretty handsome exhibition of the soundness of British politics is the House of Commons. Close to the ground, elevated on no stilts of false dignity, giving every man a fair fighting chance, assuming no airs of superior sanctity or patriotism to cloak mean and corrupt motives, unsparing towards silliness, cant, and affectations of any kind, it breeds a manly stock of men for British politics worthy of the fathers of English liberty, and ally able to maintain British prestige with British brawn. Not in Mr.

Gladstone's Programme. The Herald seems to think that Mr. Gladstone hss backed down because he did not go on and smash the House of Lords. It was to be expected that both Tory and Hibernian haters of Gladstone would jump at the concessions made in order to clinch his great legislative feat as a surrender and try to dash his triumph with a strain of defeat. Bnt this partisan outcry will soon pass, is already ashamed of itself in fact, while the tend bill remains, and will stand the enduring monument in history of Gladstones practical wisdom and services to bis country.

A land bill was what he was at, not a political triumph. Unlike his great rival. Beacons field, and unlike most of our American politician, Gladstone treats party warfare as a means and not an end, and Jbe is a great enough man to dare every now and then what would horrify mere party politicians as the rankest indiscretion. His surrender of tne Transvaal before British valor had wiped ont the stain in Mood," was a memorable instance of his sinking mere popular politics In the greater purpose. Hi treating with the House of Lords when he might have let the rising whirlwind of Radicalism grow till It swept that obstruction out of existence is only another- exemplification of the same grand breadth and calm of mind.

The London correspondent of the New York World, by no means a partisan of Gladstones, cabled yesterday, The Lords' amendments which the Government concurred in yesterday ware not very important ones, hut the Lords seised the opportunity to declare that, while they protested against the antilandlord principle of the hill, they were satisfied with the concessions nude by. the House of Commons." The Parnell! tea and their sympathizers are making the greatest outcry because the amendment of Parnell (which Mr. Gladstone accepted probably out of compliment to that leader), shutting off pending evictions, is cut out. But as Ireland will be under the new law by Saturday next, it was of comparatively little importance. The World editorially points ont that Mr.

Gladstone (who is a Conservative by nature and a The comprehensive speech that befita the inauguration ot this interesting sxhibltioa of th manufacturing and mechanical industries of New England will be spoken by other and euue eloquent Ups than my own.

It suggests yet far more the spirit that animates it all, the eternal spring of human genius that that exoands outward and upward to master thn very globe, and the lmmor-trnity of the growth of mind. Two handled and thirty-eight years ago the colonies of New England met in this Boston town to form a union for defence and common protection. Hero today they meet again in the persons of their governors and representative men of bnsiness, fearful no more of neighboring or foreign foe, not to avert by common array tne perils oiinvadlng war, bnt to stimulate by common enterprise the Industries and arts of peace.
