AS the time approaches for open
ing the doors ofthe Worlds Exposi-
tion at New Orleans encouraging
from various foreign and
domestic commissions indicate that
the riches of the great fair have been
by no means over estimated. The
scheme has grown so rapidly that
it has been found necessary to erect
additional buildings from time to
time in order to accommodate the
increasing number Of exhibitors.
Three and possibly four of the bull
dings will be found to be larger than
any similar erections Of any age or
country. This fact gives the Expo
sition a pre-eminence among
worlds fairs that will be potential in
drawing strangers from far-away
lands. Those who have made up
their minds to see one worlds fair
have now the opportunity of seeing
the best example that has yet been
devised in America or Europe.
There can be no such thing as
failure now. With abundance of
money in hand, and the largest num-
ber of exhibits ever booked at an ex-
position, and thirty-tive States and
fifteen foreign countries participa-
ting, the management may we'll feel
proud of the success already
achieved. In addition to the pro-
ducts of art, science and industry
of the old world, such as have made
other fairs renowned and attractive
to remote dwellers of the round
globe, the New Orleans creation has
unique features.
The Mexican garden of five acres
will contain one hundred and four
varieties of trees from every par,
Of the Republic. Many of the
woods have a high commercial
value and yet, strange to say, some
Of them are practically unknown ii
the United States. The Mexican
cedar, mahogany, Campeche log
wood, saffron and linaloe, tina
has a perfume that never leaves it
are all trees of great value in com
merce. The timber growth of Mex
leo is practically unlimited, ant
there is boundless wealth in man,
untouched forests awaiting tn
hand of enterprise and industry.
Should the Exposition succeed il
making known to the people of tn
world the riches of the North, Cen
trail and South American forests,
will have accomplished at its close
highly important mission. Blu
what is said of trees may be re
peated in different and more precis
} language of tropical fruits that az
to be brought to the great Exposi
tion. The different varieties Of fig;
t grapes, oranges, mangoes, bananas
4 pine-apples and many rare fruit
e will be shown growing upon plant
t or trees, thus presenting a Tar
: spectacle to Northern eyes. Will
t the departments of forestry an
g horticulture will be the largest "
n seen, the other features of the E,
: position such as the cotton, suga
r mineral, machinery, government an
t livestock exhibits, will attra'
q scarcely less attention.
The actual results already oil
= tanned are quite sufficient for til
t management to base a predictio
n upon, to the effect that the comir

. tennial is to be the largest, mo
y complete and satisfactory of IL

NEWS AND NOTES.

Among the improvements that
are being made in Rugby, not the
least, though perhaps the most un-
pretentious, are those now going on
in Christ Church. 1t is significant
Of the mind Of the founders Of this
Colony, that in the beginning, due
provision for the. spiritual necessi-
ties of colonists far as build
ings and facilities for worship is
concerned-was made. Thousands
Of villages are scattered over this
wide country, in which the ''sound
of the church going bell' never
breaks upon the ear, nor the voice
of melody or prayer, expresses the
aspirations of the worshippers. BY
the terms of the original arrange
ment with the owners of the soil,
the building is available for worship
according to the Episcopal ritual
every Sabbath morning and for an
"open service" in the evening. The
expenses in connection with the
Church are solely those which are
necessary for the comfort of the
congregation, such as cleaning:
lighting, hymnals, etc. The Vestry
of Christ Church is responsible for
the building, and to meet the Incl
dental expenses that arise, an offer
ltory is taken on three Sundays in
each month, the fourth being omit
ted, so that the evening collection
taken at that time should not suffer
This single collection affords the
only resource for that congregation
to pay its share Of the expense in
Cured in connection with its wor-
ship. Extra necessities are met by
extra efforts. By this means ar
elegant chandelier was purchased
last winter, by friends in both con-
gregations, and placed in the
Church. The Vestry recently deter
mined to place a communion table
on the southeast side of the church
to inclose with a neat walnut rail
ing, to carpet the interior, to add I
Dossal, and to place cushions on TIN
step in front of the rails. An &c

Clements A. Markham, Secretary
of the Royal Geographical Society.
who served in the Arctic expedition
of 1850 in search of Sir John
Franklin, has written a letter
apropOs of the recent charges made
against the Greedy party. In this
he says: srhe accusation of murder
and cahnibalism made against the
Greely party is a disgrace to Ameri-
can journals. Decency would have
suggested silence until Greely had
submitted his report to the Govern
ment. There may be a remnant
of truth in the charge. 1t is possible,
but unlikely, that brave men in the
last extremity should have sue
cumbed." Markham draws atten-
tion to the fact that similar cruel
accusation was made against Sir
John Franklin's expedition, and
quotes the noble words of Admiral
Sherard Osbone, who commanded
one of the Franklin search expedi-
ions, "Why attempt to lift the veil
with which the All Merciful has
been pleased to shut out from NOR
tai ken the last sad hours Of brave
men battling with famine and dis
ease?" Markham, continuing, says:
''The American Navy Department
should have controlled and been
responsible for the expedition. The
party should never have been left
without a depot ship wintering
within an accessible distance Of
them. The difficulty of navigating
the channels north of Smiths SounI
was ignored and precautions neg
lected; hence the catastrophe, fol
which there is no excuse. Lieut.
Greely's observatory work will form
a valuable supplement to the series
of observations which were taken b.
the ship Discovery in 1875. Th'
Greedy expedition will bear the tes
of thoro scrutiny. The expedition
are mistaken, however, in stating
: that Beaumont's Cape Brittania wal
visible from Lincoln Bay on the ives
side of Robeson channel. The rea
Cape Brittania is visible from Lin
coin Bay, the most distant visibl
land being Cape May and Noun
&. Hooker. The point which Lock
: wood and Brainard reached wa
= Cape May, not Cape Brittanla
The next land they reached wa
: Beaumont Island with small islam
: between it and Brittania.

The only thing worthy of mention
about the Erening Chronicle, which is
printed in Denver and gratuitously dis
tributed in Cheyenne. il its so-called lin
dependent ticket 1t is called an indie
pendent ticket probably Tor the reason
that it is not an independent ticket Sew
eral Democrats are sandwiched in among
a lot Of Republicans 50 as to break the
monotony and this is all. The publica-
ton is certainly insignificant enough and
but for one reason would be unworthy of
mention at all. The reason alluded to is
that the paper is backed financially and
run in the interest of Schnitger, for Sher-
if, Jeffrey. for County Clerk, and Berg
man, for Probate Judge. 1t is rather a
startling condition of affairs when lifelong
Office holders give even covert e%ountenance
to a split ticket in the selfish endeavor to
ensure their wi retention in office.
