The Centennial Receipt.

A Philadelphia paper says: Some persons
predict that there will be five millions of
visitors who will average at least three
ickets each. This would make the receipts
81, 100000. 1t is not presumabe that any
body will be satisfied with a single Wit to
the Exhibition. No one could see a tithe
of what will he on exhibition curing ole
visit, and it is safe to say that it will re-
quire at least five visits to go through the
show, however hastily one may glance at
the thousands of novelties to be seen.
No doubt, all who can afford to do so,
will 60 as often as may be necessary to
"take it all in," and hence it would seem to
be safe to estimate that at least three tickets
will be sold to each visitor on an average.
But how many people will come to the Ex-
hibition it is impossible to foretell. Our
own city and vicinity will furnish many
thousands of ticket buyers. From the ada
cent country almost everybody will come to
the Exhibition. The neighboring counties
will pour in tens and hundreds OF thousands
of people, and New Jersey, Delaware and
Maryland will send armies of men, women
and children. New York city and State
will be very largely represented, and so will
New England, while the great Mississippi
valley will send legions. Even the far-off
Pacific coast will send large delegations.
From the South the attendance will not be
SO large; but even from that section the
people will come by thousands, and it is i'm
possible to estimate the number of people
that the Uuited States alone will furnish as
visitors to the Centennial. The population
of this country is at least 100000 and the

The French Workingmen.

At a meeting of workingmen in Paris,
Louis Blanc closed an address by saying
that it was proposed to send one ehundred and
twenty workmen, two of each trade, to
Philadelphia. The expenses of each were
estimated at $500; consequently the sum of
$4,000 must be raised. The municipality
of Paris has voted one-fifth of the amount 4;
the Chamber will be asked to vote $4,000;
and the remainder must be contributed by
subscriptions.
Victor Hugo closed a characteristic ad-
dress to the workingmen as follows: | greet
you, you who are about to set out for Phila-
delphia. You will see with your own eyes
this immense deed which the nineteenth CEN
tury will see. Go, workingmen of Paris
who know how to toll go, workingmen OF
Paris who know how to fight; tell the new
world that the old world is growing young
Go and bear the great news of the republic
consolidated among you. You are the en-
bassadors of fraternity; you are the ENJOYS
of Voltaire in the country of Washington
you set out from the continent where Jesus
Christ was born to go to the land where
John Brown was born. This bringing to
gether of two republics will not be withou
result. A breath of clemency will eXtenC

Notes of the Exhibition.

A prominent newspaper publisher OF
Canada gives it as his opinion that not
less than $4,000 Canadians will visit the En-
hibition.
A feature in Machinery Hall is an Ameri-
can lifeboat which has experienced rough
service.
One thousand and two hundred parties
have space allotted in Agricultural Hall,
nearly half of whom have installed their
exhibits.
Count C. Liewanhaupt, the newly ap-
pointed minister Of Sweden and Norway to
the United States, has been appointed grand
commissioner of that government.
The committee ON international regatta
have apprised Commodore Ferguson of a
proposal of the New York boating men to
subscribe $1,000 to the regatta fund and to
present one or two of the prizes.
The Third New York cavalry, numbering
three hundred troopers, propose galloping tc

The Netherlands, Etc.

Whoever visits the Netherlands section
will behold, perhaps, the best executed speci-
men of the fine arts in the Main building.
1t consists of a series of scenes from the
most popular works of Schiller and Goethe.
The groundwork is on glass. The moon
shining in the sky, windows reddened by in,
terror illumination, cleaning expressions OF
the human countenance, light contrasted
with shade and everything approaching the
sparkling or the brilliant are introduced
with the most striking resemblance to nature
by means of delicate inlaying of mother-of-
pearl, silver, gold and other precious
substances. The whole is then covered with
glass.

the West Indies, from which many thou
sands Of visitors will surely come. and
then the countries OF Europe and of Asia,
and even Northern Africa. 1t cannot be
deemed extravagant to predict that, at
least 100000 of people Including our
own citizens) will visit the Centennial; and
if they buy only two tickets each, the re-
ceipts will be s3000,000. But this estimate
is far below that made by many Of our citi-
zens, who have given this subject much
careful thought, and who forsee, from
present indications, wonderfully large
multitude here next summer, and their be.
lief is shared by so many that Centennial
stock is said to have "stifiened up" very
considerably of late. Those who hold it, il
some cases, we are informed, have refused tc
sell it at par, and the chances dre that specu.
lators will soon be found buying up this
stock. There is feeling of pride among
Phil 'dclphians in respect to rcimbursin2
the Federal government Tor the conditional
appropriation lately made OF Sl,50o,0Go
and the belief is becoming pretty general
that the Center nj2l commission will be en-
abled to repay this sum, even altcr having
satisfied the stockholders and Others.

COST OF THE BUILDINGS.
The Centennial Grounds.

The ground selected for the site OF the
Exhibition in Fairmount Park is west Of
the Schuylkill river, and north of Girard
and Elm avenues, on plateau ninety feet
above the river, heretofore known as Lans-
downe. The boundaries of the Exhibition
are South, Elm avenue, from Forty-frst to
Fifty-second streets west, the park drive to
Georges hill, with the concourse north,
Belmont drive from Georges hill to the foot
of Belmont; and cast, Lansdowne drive
from Belmont to Forty-frst street. The
whole of the Exhibition being inclosed,
thirteen entrances have been established
along the boundary drive, which it has
been suggested might appropriately be

the hand of the enchantress has scattered
thickly over them the little pale pink and
violet flowers of the Virginia cress, and the
delicate cups of the wild anemones. In
patches of white down in the rayine, be-
tween the Art Halls and the Horticultural,
the tender wild vines are beginning to show
sill cry leaflets, and, hid almost among the
gf -.sses and-oh, that I should be con
pelled TO write it---the dark green blades OF
the wild onion, lie the star-shaped flowers
which the children call the Star of Bethle-
hem. The naples have glory OF reddish
green leaves and the white beeches of silver
green, and the willows have no perceptiblc
leaves vet, but show simmer of emerald
green All about the walks and on the pro-
iections Of the two bridges The birds hep
about cheerily, and chirp as if this was
their Centennial indeed and not ours
There are s3arrows, and red breasted robins,
and finches green and yellow; and there are
some gorgeous blue birds with flame red
edgings to their wings and tails. Perhaps
the art of man has enticed them in such
numbers to the vicinity of the Hortieul-
tural, and they come to steal the seeds which
Mr.. Mingey has so industrously planted in
the parterres. Such would be the verdict
of farmer, but for my. part l can only be-
lieve that they come to swell the general
Joy, and to admire the magnificent display
Of hyacinths which will be in their full
bloom and glory on opening day.

The Old Guard.

Amoskeag Veterans, from New Hampshire,
the Boston Light Infantry, from Massachu
setts; the Providence Light Infantry, from
Rhode Island the New Haven Greys, from

Georgia.

To thank Thee for the era done,
And trust Thee for the opening one.

The fathers spake that word Of Thine
Whose echo is the glad refrain
OF rended bolt and falling chain,
To grace our festsl timo from all
The zones Of earth our guests we Call.
Be with us while the new word greets
The old world, throneing all its streets,
dwelling all the triumphs won
By art or toll beneath tho sun;
And unto common gord ordain
This rivalship of hand and brain.
Thou who hast here in concord furled
The war flags of gathered world,
Beneath our western skies fulfill
The Orient's mission Of good will,
Ard, freighted with loves golden fleece,
Send back the argonsuts Of peace.
For art and labor met in truce,
For beauty made the bride Of use,
We thank Thee, while withal we crave
The austere virtues strong to save,
The honor proof to place or gold,
The msnhood never bought or sold
Oh mako rhou us, through centuries long
In peace secure, and justice strong;
Around our gift of freedom draw
The safeguards Of Thy righteous law.
And cast in some divirer mold,
