THE RECORD, CEDARTOWN. (iA., MAY 18. 1870 read Ilia addrrHH in rather a low, ful- toring tone, stopping frequently ns if trying to get a hotter control of his I voice. Whan ho announced that the exhibition wns open, and the Atueiicnn ling whs unfurled, tho enthuHiiiHin i f tho mighty crowd boiled ovor, and they gavo vont to wildest cheering and demonstrations. Tito llnllalnj ih Chorus wus then givou, when tho march through tho various buildings began, led by President Grant, Dom Pedro and wifo, and Cabinet. Tho chimes were rung, a salute fired by the nrtellory, and tho buildings wore then thrown open, for tho first Limo, to tho public. Much to tho surpriso of nearly ovory ono, scarcoly rnoro tlinu throo-fouitlia of tho spico allot ted to exhibitors liavo boon taken up, tho passages are choked up with ma chinery that is still uupackod, and tho floors littered ovor with boxes. Fully two or throo weeks will pass beforo everything is in full running order, and for tho present, at least, I advise your readers to postpono their visit. Many persons have como hero, and will go away sadly disappointed on accouut of this Incompleteness. That the exhibition will ho in two or throo weeks tho Attest tho world has ovor soon, no ono doubts, but it should be so itow. It is estimated that fully 180,000 persons wore present at tho opouing, the greater portion of whom wero caught iu thopouriug rain which enmo suddenly up niul continued lor hours. TlioiiRlitH on a C ountry Debate l*lillnilel|ililu t '«>rreft|Minileiice. PniLAOKu m, Pa., May 14, 1870. Tho Centennial Exhibition has boon Opened, end every American may feel justly proud of it. While every build ittg under the control of the Commis sioners is finished and ready, very few of tlioso belonging to piivale exhib itors nro ovi u under way. The con noquonco is that the ground is disfig. tired by great lumps of dirt, lumber and boxes, and the air is filled with the sound of hammors and saws of hundreds of workmen. Wero it not for tho sight of tlieso unfinished build ings, tho groat unsightly hoops of de bris, and the roads cut to pieces by the heavily laden teams, tho exliibi lions would be all that the most scep tical ran di siro. Before another month is pant, howovor, all tlieso de fects will have boon remedied, and cry thing be in perfect working ordor. A better plneo for the exhibition could not have bc< u chosen. Tho 280 ncros of J airmounl Park set apart for it, form n small table laud, about 100 feet above llio liver, and which is di- versified by valleys and green slopes. Almost every available part of the grounds is ernamouted by fountains, llowcis, Ireos, lakes, monuments and pavilions, while across tho valleys and drains oro built beautiful light iron blidgos— nil logt tbor forming as beau tiful u picture ns I have ever seen. A faint id. a of tho ni/.o of the build ings may bo giv n when it is stated that tho main buildings cover 75 acres, and that the aisles, cr passages thro’ Hu in in o 115 miles lot g, and that It takes about tbioc days to go through them all, making n most cursory ex- niiiiu.il ion of the things on exhibit! n. In ordor to add to the convenience of the visitors, a Dai row gauge railroad has boon built around iusiiio of tho grounds, so that for five couUf each one can make a tour of t ;o grounds In about twenty minutes. homo of the engines which draw the cars are quite diminutive, while tho cars are open boxes, so as to give the pttSHCii* gers u full view of llm grounds, nipl mo all nuwlt’ by difioront Ilyins nit ad vertisements. There is also u chair company, Imvii g chairs placed upon wIiooIh, vvh.o’i can be hired with u man to push you about ut sixty cents an h >ur. A visitor Iiuh only to gel iu ono n( there clm.'rs, tell the attendant where ho wishes to go, mid lie will bo inlttui tin iv without ttlO sf/gtltcst CX- cition on hi* pint. Several elevators Iiiivo been erected uilsidn of llm grounds, iu which visitors cm ho ta ken up to what, appears to tin in to bo nu imiueiiso height, and liavo n full bird's eye view of not only f ho giouuu, but Philadelphia mid all the country around.

(Our OOircspoudunt goes on to dcscribo all tho buildings., hut us we expect to give a full dosciiption, with cuts, next week, wo will omit it— Ed) Tlie opening day was bright and pleasant, though llio grounds wero 6oft and muddy from tho rains that lind been filling for several days be fore. In 11spouse to the invitations of llio Coutouniul Commit loo, Presi dent Grunt and family, T. \Y. Ferry, Vice President, Secretaries IV.li, Urin- tow, Clmudlcr, Taft, Hohoson, Jewell, and Pievrcpout; i ll of tho Foreign Ministers; all of tho members of both houses of t'ongres ; G.ivoruora of many States; Gcnorals Sbormui and Sheridan; the lvnperorof Brazil and wifo, and too ninmy others to men tion, wore present and took part in tho opening ceremonies. Bishop Simmon I thu twrciw with ti-nclie™ ia llio S'lito. ‘ ... , , , , mat iciuu lie is alruat prayer, niter which tho orchostra a chorus of ono thousand voices, gavo Whittier's Ccutcunlni Hymn. Tho singing was perfectly grand and com pletely drowned the music of the or chestra. Hon. John Welch, President of tho Centennial Hoard of Finance, then nuido u hsiof address,after which the chorus and orchestra rendered Sidney Lanier's Cantata "Tho Cen tennial Meditation of Columbia.” Gen. JoBcpli T. lluwlcy, presidiint of tho Commission, thou, amidst the most iutenso onthu^iatn, presented tho exhibition to tho President of tho United Stall ... Gen. Grant came for ward, evidi ntly very much embar- raosod, and was guv led with the wild- 081 cheering and applause. As soon u.- poaccaud quiet were rostor d. he ’Twne Saturday night. A friend ohkek mo to go with him to a debnfo "J'wiih held iu a fcchoo) house 00 x 20. A largo crowd out. Tho quo a lion was "Which inducesmoro marriages, mon ey or natural atToolion." Tho first speaker camo out on tho sido of money. IIo oudoavorod to provo that there was no suoli a thing gouuiuo love, honco marriages not based on money had no base at all. was an imiigiuutivo subatnneo about us solid as a mixture you would form of moonshiuo, syllabub and tjeu- blossoniR. Very delightful, very enchanting iu tho diltaiicoi Imt not lid enough for two individuals to stand on long enough to got married. Tho next speaker made a speech in behalf of lovo. Evidently his inward rquniutnnoo with llio subject was limited, lie took it up gent'y but did iu l handle ii with care. Ho treated it ns a fish would treat your halt when it saw the end of your hook Tho speakers came on*, in aucocss’on Mien to tho number of about fom teon, first on one side ami then on Hie oth er. Tlieso iq oi chts were rare, but not rich nor racy. Yes, sir I they wore rare—I never beard llio like before. The subject to bo discussed they used as a text to brnch ofl’ on something else. Thoro Wero very few things but were noticed that night. Tho subjects were much more Humorous than thu speakers. Blighuui Young and his wives, opossums, Delay, Essieni cities, mules,credit, elephant's cars, Grant, polities, porsonul matters, general mutters. Time and space would fail mo to tell all thu Hubjcotu upon which levies wore made by thu con funding portion. Suffiuo it to say that more subjects o.m lie thought of, mere that has n > lelovunoy to the ijiiestiou at issue, at a country dobato than elsowlioio in the wide world. Yes, 1 guess there nro enough things said, or subjects thought of, enough systems uiudo, enough spitting duue in olio country debates iu ono night to equal what tho whole Houso of Lords uud Commons would do of the same things in a much longer time. Yet with all the boring and repetition ui.d scraping in the debates they are very interesting. The debating soci ety of which I liavo boon speaking is now in u flourishing condition, but from what I heard about ono of their proposed questions 1 fear it will die of the discusj that killed tho Georgia Legislature—a canine a flec tion. They propose to discuss in the future tho following significant question: “which is tho more profitable to u country, Fieo dogs or pop corn." 1 am of the opinion that a debating society that can stand this question must have a ttrong constitution. Tho Secretary of the aooioty, F. M. L, ia a polite, courteous young umu, and destined to be one of the finest mat bo nd) unsurpassed; ditcipliuariau he In The Overturn! Steamship Line. A coroBpondeut in the Record .sign ing his name * Soudil," says that his "Simou” propose* to ruu a grand Railroad or OrorUud Steamship Lino'' from Baltimore to Sun Francisco. A giand coueopliou thin. Nothing can equal the g outness of this Rail- read conceptual but its lack of Rail road clour tu*.*. I have read of an ivory chariot and horses so sin 11 as to be covered with tho wings of a fly. 1 have heard that Piiydi is pi opuses to cut M*. Athos unto n ataluo of Alcxnndor tho Groat with a river in ono hand and a city in tho othor. I have hoard of a battle’s boing fought in heavens between the French and the Prussians, of the pro posed Atlantic Ocoan bridge, of tho Chicago Hotel, but nothing I remem ber over to liavo read cotncs up to this Railway Ship lino ontorpriso. am afraid that “Scudd" is tho pow< r belli ml tho throne, and that ho seeking to tnnko bis Simon respon sible for his grnndiloquont schemes until ho learns how they aro accepted by the people. Now, “Scud” usks what I think of his “Overland Steam - ship Lino.” In view of tho signific ance of tho thing, of tlm hearing it will havo on national commerce; of llio troubles into which it may plunge kings and quoens (if it were to be complishod) I shall answer him plain ly. And I any as a citizen of this nn- tiou, I inn opposed to it for several ronsons. Ono very small reason in, it can not bo done. There is not money onougli in America and Europe to comploto such a woik as Ibis. An other reason is thu couutiy cannot stand it. It has stood war and can stand it again. Jt has stood the burn ing of its cities and cau stand tire again. It lias stood poverty mid pan* ics, rogues uud shipwrecks, hut .Si mon’s enterprise would sink her, not only into financial ruin, but into na tional imbecility. Aud the national onsideratiou should outweigh all ot!<- rs. No man's love of motley should induce him to iuii his country in debt, and biing trouble on thousands just to have a railroad with a eaual on top of it. It is a pity I hut such men are in Alabama. Dill while 1 oppose Simon's steam boat affair, I admire .Siino:i liimt>ol r . There arose many narrow contracted, dwarfed, pitiable L.inds iu the world, that it is really reficulling to meet on • whore opinions and idem have some size about them. Little views uro i.ot iu Simon's hm, I see. If lie could liellOw his light of view, his depth of conception and his breadth of expan sion upon tho goviiniMiit, without his Rail-Canal, he would be worthy the grntitii'h. of the people. 1*. D. L.
