OPENING DAY AT THE CENTENNIAL.-The
dennlte announcement of the programme
ot the opening Centennial exercises has
been published. The programme is vn.y,
properly, to be simple and brief. TO
attempt 10 copy the ceremony and display
OF European nations would be foolish. and
long and elaborate exercises, which would
only delay the anxiety of people TO inspect
the wonders of the exposition, would be
lll-tmed. The whole of the exercises will
not occupy more than As minutes,-unless
ths President INDUCES in a speech MANY
times greater than he is in the habit Of
delivering. He will. of course. have more
TO say on this occasion than usual. but he
Is not likely to be very extended in his
remarks. The programme includes the

music. For the opening he will have an
orchestra of $50, and the cantata will he
sung by 800 picked voices. The best cbor-

Times, that contract has been made with

AN ODD PRoPosITIoN.-A correspondent
OF Ete'y Ereniag writes from Odessa as fol-
lows An effort has recently been made to
consolidate the congregations of the Metho.
dist and Presbyterian churches of this town.
This step. was inaugurated by the Presby.
terIans who find themselves too small in
numbers to pay minister's salary. owing
to the removal from the town of some Of
their members. The Methodists have shown
no disposition to favor the change, as their
numbers at present quite meet all demands
upon the church. AS a town we hone TO
know that there are enough true Presbv.
terlans to support the worthy Rev. DR..
Crowell; if not, then it is a small honor
that will be paid to the historic Drawers
Church and its founders, who built up and
sustained it years ago. ''''''
