THE M. L. A. EXCURSION. NJ. L. A
excursion party reached the Centennial grounds
at 2.3O Thursday afternoon. The heavy train
delayed progress somewhat, and they were
two hours behind time. They were, however,
fully compensated for the delay, as it afforded
them grand sail in the morning at the lower
end of the Sound and in the harbor of New
York. The various points of note were viewed
with great interest, being to very many new
experience. Upon arriving at the Centennial
grounds. the headquarters of the party were
located for the time at the Grand Exposition
Hotel, but that as are all other hotels, was
crowded, and on Friday, the most of them
took up quarters at private houses, both in the
immediate vicinity of the grounds and in the
city. All are greatly delighted with the trip in
spite of the crowded condition of all means of
conveyance to the great show.

Resignation of Rev. VIM. Il. Hayden.

besI2nau0n OF HSev. w M h Hayden.
The congregation of the New Jerusalem
church were surprised and grieved yesterday
morning by the announcement from the pulpit
by their pastor that pext Sunday completing
the twenty sixth year since the commencement
of his ministry in Portland, the need of rest
from his labors obliged him to tender his res
ignation. The long service of Mr.. Hayden, his
great ability and peculiarly amiable and ex-
emplary character, have endeared him to the
community at large as we'll as to his own peo-
pie, and his decision will excite lively feeling
of regret among all our citizens. His infu-
ence has been largely feltfn all good works,
and his opinions have had great effect upon
the movement of public sentiment on religious
matters in this city, an effect which has re-
f1ected most favorably upon the denomination
to which be belongs. In the earlier days of his
pastorate his evening lectures attracted such
large audiences that seats were difficult to OBJ.
tain. He is undoubtedly one of the best if
not at the head of the preachers of his church,
and his success in holding together and build
ing up 30 considerable society under all the
discouragements and misfortunes which they
have been obliged to encounter, must be a
most satisfactory reflection for him in closing
his labors here.
We trust that Portland will still retain him
as citizen, as his loss would be deeply de-
plored by the many associations with which
he is connected, especially the Fraternity Club,
of which he is an honored and valued member,
and Portland society can lily spare man who
has become attached to it by SO many links of
affection and esteem.
