Now that the great centennial exhibi.
ton is over, the Philadelphia Ledger says
"the absorbing interest must cease, and
the fever of anxiety and the earnestness Of
present occupation be exchanged for the
calmer process Of retrospectiou. The in
cessant activity Of the last six months
never exceeded in this city--never, per-
haps, in any, for 50 long period--may be
followed by a stiffness which will seem al
most solitude. The eager rush Of hui
manity and the crowds in tho great tho
roughiares will cease But not quite shall
we return TO the former status. Still, as
the homely but expressive phrase is, ave
shall be lonely as compared with the last
six months. How lonely win depend, in
a great degree, upon ourselves"

Maryland's Centennial Building.

1t is understood that proposition will
be made to the Park Commissioners at
their next meeting for the transfer of the
Maryland building from the Centennial
grounds to Druid Hill Park, where the
Centennial Commissioners desire it should
be placed as one of Maryland's Centennial
relics. The Centennial Commissioners for
Maryland (Messrs. j. H. B, Latrobe and
Samuel NJ. Shoemaker) intended to sell
the building for 81 900, but there was no
purchaser. A resolution was offered on
the last night of the session Of the City
Council for an appropriation of $4,000,
being for the purchase, removal and re-
erection of the building at Druid Hill
Park, but the proposition was tabled 1t
is stated that the sum of from 81 500 to
$4,000 will be required for the transfer
and reconstruction Of the Maryland build,
ing. The Park Commissioners have at
present no available funds for the purchase
Of the structure, and it is understood that
in that case the Centennial Commissioners
will probably present the Centennial edi-
flee to the Park Commissioners, on the
condition that it be properly fitted up in
tho Park.-.- Balto, american, Wednesday.
