Such au orator it found in Most Kov. John Ireland , archbishop of St. Paul , who will now deliver the oration of the world's congresses in 1S'J3. When the wonderful uproar of applause that greeted this sncoch unfl the aopeurance of * Bishop Ireland had measuroably sub sided , ho said : The time Is most auspicious. Manifestly wo live in ono of those momentous cycles of history , when humanity is casting around for now pathways and girding itself for un usual manifestations of its energies. How much has benu dona since the days of Colum bus 1 Much more will bo done in the now period , whoso approach already brightens the landscape. Ours Is an ago of unrest , ot soarchlngs and drcamtngs. Past achievements have nut wbottea tbo appetite. Wo are today loss satisfied with inventions and discoveries than wevcro when the steamship and the railroad car were moro experiments. Science is more restless iu its Inquiries into dauso and effect tbon when it made Its flrst step beyond the borderland of guessings. Signal victories in thn extension of popular rights nnd of Individual liberty , tbo olovatiou of tbo musses , the enlargement or the sphere of woman , maUo known how much tnoro may bo obtained , and awaken now and untried am bitions. Another feature of the ago Is Its question ing spirit , its tireless Inqutstllvoncas. it puts all things to the test ; it pours into tbo heights and depths , so fni ai to arrive at tbe real facts , the ultimate foundations , content to rcposo itbclf upon nothing also. No pos- 8111111110 escape the vision , and no dlfllcul- tlus affright the hoiirt of man. Ho is emboldened - boldoned by the past and enriched with its accumulated treasures ot knowledge nnd ox- porlenco. Never was humanity as aarinir as it is today , never so ready to leave fur bo- buid tba pillars of Hercules and steer its ships over undiscovered seas. 1 would remark , too , the universality of Its energies and labors. The manifestations of the age can bo reduced to no sluglo force or trait. AU the diverse energies of preceding ages combine in It , and many others barn of itself. All forces , physlcal.bcloullllc , social , moral , uro evoked , and all are challenged to show their beat results. The ago u ready for great fonts. If we are loyal worKers it progress our lines are , In deed , cast amid hopeful surroundings. The futurtVVbut will it bol Material progress , no douut , will continue onward with over-increasing velocity. The wildest dreams scarcely , I boliovu , foreshadow tie ! realities ; nothing need bo unexpected. The travelers to the Columbian exposition 100 years hence will , perhaps , blrdliiie , sail through the air , journeying in a balf-dozcu hours from the Atlantic coast to the city of the northwest on ibo banks of tbo Missis , sippi. Mom unllKely would tbo prophecy of travel by rail , or steam , or electricity have seemed to our forefathers ono century ago. I trust in 1'rovldcuou and humnuitv , und I have conndonco that tbo moral and social forces which now so profoundly agitate tbo world will worn into uu increase of good ness and happiness among mou.Much will depend upon tbo iiilolllueuu-o und zo.u of those wnom position und talent have made tba louden * of thought and action. Seldom In all blstorv did such dcup responsibilities llo upon the leaders of tnolr fellows as there do today. Scarcely ever was humanity pregnant with such momoulous possibilities ; scarcely ever were similar opportunities ottered to accomplish great things. Tbo future will bring no rail- temuiD , There will bo no rosebusn without thorns , co day without the nearness of oven * ingbhudcj , no life without tbo menace of doatb , There will bo inequalities among men , and passion * will disturb the peace of souls. But I do bvh vu there will bo mercy iu thy world , more Justice , moro righteous- uosi. 'I hero will bo more period manhood , moro liberty for tbo Individual , The brotherhood of men will bo moro widely recognized , and its loasous moro faltbfull practiced. Servitude aud oppression vil be banhbod oven trom the darkest thicket of African forests. Ttia boou of civilization will reach all races of the human family ; civil and political liberty will speed across nil boat and oceans. Nations will seu iu ouu another assemblies of orothors , and jHiaceful arbitration will , in settlement of disagreements , taku tbe plae of tbo murderous award.

The protest against unbelief will bring religion into bolder roltof , ana the widening thoughts of man along otbor lines of progress will prove more clearly that ro- llgion Is the need of nil progress , a God is the need ol all being.

From the vice president ot the United States down , the list of brainy and distinguished people that would nearly till an unabridged dictionary , composed the magnificent gathering , not the least interested person * being Archbishop Ireland's fellow churchman , Cardinal Gibbons bens , aud the papal lozatc , Salolli. The conaei-i-atod blizzard , as Archbishop Ireland has been called , displayed in his oratory tory the whirlwind of energy that Is his characteristic and that had onlv a parallel in the whirlwind of applause that greeted him. \\t > tcmnc < l to tliu I'ulr. Preceding all the addresses , the opening Invocation this evening was impressively voiced by Kov. John Henry Barrows , pastor of the First Presbytoriau church of Chicago and chairman of the general committee on religious congresses. The invocation con tained references from Columbus to Islam and , without naming him , to Archbishop Ire land , that challenged quick attention. President Charles C. Bonner of the World's Congress auxiliary delivered the ad dress of welcome , only two sentences long , as follows : "The World's Columbian auxiliary salutes and welcomes the magnificent audience as sembled to witncsH the inaugural ceremonies of the intollcctuul and moral exposition of the progress of mankind to bo made in the world's congresses of 18U. ! The greeting on behalf of the woman's branch of the auxil iary will bi given by its president , Mrs. Pot ter Palinur. " The woman's branch greeting by Mrs. Potter P.ilmer was equally brief and to the point , thus : "J he woman's branch of the VVorld's Con gress auxiliary , representing the marvelous progress of woman during the last four centurloi , unites most cordially In this greet ing and sends congratulations to the loaders of that progress In all the enlightened lands. The salutation in honor of Queen Isabella will bo given bv Mrs. Obarlo * Ponrotln , vice president of the woman's branch of the World's Consross auxiliary. " The salutation In honor ot Quoeu Isabella by Mrs. Punrotin was also a beauty of com pression , as follows : The assistance which Columbus received from Queen Isabella enabled htm to discover and reveal the American continents. The aid which enlightonoii womanhood , the quoou of this now ago , now offers to all mon will otmblo them , especially the tolling millions , to find in their own countries new worlds of intellectual and moral enjoyment , enhanced material prosperity , unproved social condi tions , and the rich fruitage of resulting peace.
