The President delivered, an orafeion suitable -to the occasion in the. Hall iof } ]$rrora,.;. The weather:was splendid, and lajrgecrpwds took part ih the fete. At- the. beginning of the proceedings an ex-soldier named Perrin fired a blank cartridge at the' President while he was leaving the Elygee. He was promptly arrested and stated that he merely fired his rifle in order to attract- public notice to a grievance, He alleged he had' been tin justly punished, and his wife and children we're starving. An excited crowd tried, to lynch the man, but did not succeed, ; . , t> „ President Carnot in his speech yesterday, at the unveiling of. the memorial tablet, said the exp3rience of a century WjPMJd, prevent France confiding her destinies to one man. 1 The authorities have ordered' the closing of a' panorama at the exhibition 'containing the portrait of (general Boulanger. The English and American courts are well advanced, but all ' others ' are incomplete. Crowds are flocking to Paris for the exhibi* tion. , „ , , / There was an, enormous gathering to-day to witness the formal opening of the exhibition, and Paris appeared in her most brilliant array in honour of the occasion. . (President Carnot was. escorted through, the streets by a squadron of cavalry, and at intervals salvoes of artillery were fired. At the exhibition itself there was but little cerentony, and the proceedings were conducted without any great display. The Premier,,!^..T^rard, delivered an address, expressing, the, gratitude 'of France for the , lipmage . done to her by 'foreign nations in assisting to make the exhibition , superior to all preceding it, The President,^ .his speech said the exhibition marked the completion of,, a. century of progress. r. Visitors would be able to judge whether the calumnies aimed at France were •correct. 'He" extended a hearty welcome to all thejr guests,, and concluded by saying that these great festivities of labour enabled nations to ,ap|)rp^ch' and understand' one another, and cement'tHe peace of 'the world.
