The Railroad Exposition.

Chicago, 23.-Tbe national railway
exposition opens IN this city tomorrow
night, and il character and number Of
exhibits, certainly promises to be the
most stupend0us affair Of the kind over
undertaken. In addition to the expo
sition building proper, which covers the
entire block, temporary structure eX-
tending four blocks to the south has
been erected on LAKE Front Park, Civ
ing total exhibit spsca Of 800 by 40
feet. In the main exposition
building ara lighter exhibits, con-"
which enter into the construction of
the railroad, or its equipment, which are
portable. In the y I'd are the locomo-
tives, freight and passenger coaches,
water TANKS, as complete ID detail ~
those which can be found on the road,
and other things which belong to the
heavier part of the exhibition. In The
gallery Of the main building running en-
tirely around it, is the track for the
electric railway. During the exhibition,
two care, capable of carrying
forty people will be run upon it. Other
features are the miniature sleeping and
dining cars, complete in all their details;
the largest, smallest and Oldest locomo-
tivesa in the world, and mammoth sao '
plow used in the Rocky Mountains. The
exhibits in the main building are mostly
in booths, which generally have been
brightly decorated, and ingenuity has
been displayed in the arrangement OF
the contents. The building is TO
be Illuminated with electric lights
throughout, and when peopled
with sightseers the scene promises to
be brilliant. Among yard exhibits
which have already arrived is = Straw
bridge Lion" the first locomo5iye ever
run in America. THE :'Arahian No. l"
which went into eerviceGon the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad in 1884, is also on
display. Beside it is the old coach Of
Tioga, end neither of these bear any re.
semblance to those used at the presen'
day. One Of the Stephenson locomotives,
representing in It's way the infancy OF
railroading, built in 1873, will have 6
place in the main building. AS illustrat-
iDgthe magnitude of the affair, tia man
ayers assert that single exhibitors of loco
motives will display larger assortment
of work than was ever displayed in Sl
previous expositions combined, which
have been held in London, New York,
Paris, Vienna or Philadelphia. They
also anticipate great throngs Aside from
The general public the number Of railway
employees alone promises to be very
great, and as an instance is cited the cas-
Of the Pittsburg and Fort Wayne Com.
panY, which has arranged to send it,
5, 600 employees at the expense OF the
eornorAtion The ertisaasi commitEaf
has taken up quarters in the exposition
building to arrange for the accommodation
of those attending, and to guard sgainst
adverse criticism ss affecting the hospiL.
atty ofthe city.

Senate. Dolph, who takes Growers
place, Is associated with the corporation
of the Oregon and the Pacific system.
Rtddieberser has become known rs
Mahone's lieutenant.
The Democrats reelected ten of
their Senators whose terms expired on
the 4th of March, viz, Morgan, Gar
land, salisbury, Beck, Lamar, Nc
Pherson, Ransom, Butler, Harris aud
Coke. They are all trained Legislators,
and most of them are able men. Glib
son, who takes these at of kellogg from
Louisiana, has acquired an excellent
standing in the House for capacity and
for character. Kenna, who follows
Davis of West Virginia, possesses the
elements for distinction, if they are
wisely directed. Colquitt, the successor
of the late Ben Hill, is not in the first
rank, but he is II sound and practical
man, who will make few mistakes.
Altogether, while the Republicans
have the advantage OF numbers col
lectively, the Democrats are much
stronger intellectually than their op.
ponents. Both parties are deficient in
in great leadership.

OCEAN REVELATIONS.

just outside tho continental plateau,
where the ocean bottom commences to
slope toward the abyssal depths, flows
the stream Of tropically-hcated water
known rs the Gulf Stream, bringing
with its congenial warmth il part of
the fauna of Florida within 60 to 100
New England. 1t is along this slope
that the most conspicuous success has
attended the heeXplorations carried on by
the United States Fish Commission
The ocean bottom is here for the most
part composed of very fine quartz
sand, mingled with feldspar, mica,
magnetic, etc, as we'll as with the
shells Of soraminifcar, and with living
sand-covered foraminifers. Although
the sand is very fine, there is but little
actual mud, so that the current must
be sufficient to prevent its deposition.
Throughout the slope, down even 10
700 fathoms, pebbles and small bould-
ers of granite, syenitc, mica-schist,
etc, occur, probably dropped by shore
ice that has tioated out into the warm
er water and there melted. Peculiar
concretionS of rock formed Of sand
cemented with lime were drcdgcd up
in some localities, and, since no such
rock occurs upon the coast, arc believ-
ed to be of deep.sea origin, possibly the
harder portion Of ground that has been
rooted up by fishes and other creatures
of burrowing habits. In many places
shells are abundant, some whole, some
broken, according to the habits of the
creatures that have devoured their
tenants. Thus some fishes, as cod, had
dock and halSe, swallow their mollus-
can food entire, and disgorgc tho shells
whole after the flesh is digestcd. Star
fishes have no weapons with which to
break the valves of a musseI or clam,
but the large crabs that 1.-Two in these
depths break up the shell to reach the
mollusk, and many fishes do the same.
Any very great accumulation Of shells
is prevented by tho work Of boring
sponges and boring anncIlds. The sea
is popularity supposed to be strewn, at
least in the tracks followed by travel,
with dead mems bones; but such is not
the case. Bones Of any kind, cctaccan
or fish, are very rare, and human re-
mains do not occur. 1t is probable
that the life at the bottom--thc
worms, the crustacca, the Cchinodcrms
speedily consume both the flesh and
bones of all vertebrates. At any rate,
q few ashes and clinkers aud some bits
of coal, droppings from the ocean
steamers, are the only traces OF man.
