We givo hero a substance of his remarks, as raado up by tho reporter of the Boston Journal: 4,Ile commenced by greeting his hearers upon their piesenco at such an occasion as this. It whs proper that hero on old Puritan ground such a scene as this should bo witnessed. It showed that a chango was coming over the public sentiment whi.b hud loo long restrained a healthy public wjtnl of recreation. The old Puritan who, it had been supposed, had a face cast in granite, and a heart but little softer, had none of these things it is true, but it was from no distaste of proper amusement. He himself was a Puritan, and the son of a Puritan, but he loved pictures, ho loved flowers and music, and was no enemy to -amusement. The old Puritans had some thing else to do besides inaugurate parks and plea-uro grouuds?they had their freodom to inaugurate, their schools to establish, their government to erect, and nil this left but little time for recreation. They had taste and love for proper pleasure, but little time left from their sterner duties to enjoy them. (A.pplause.) "Wf, however, were enjoying the fruits of their labors and efforts, and have lime for these things. We have sprouted; not fllll ariiwli it ! ? fnia K.i? .. 111 i p._ , .. ... uv, uui own v?0 11HVO sprouted. (Laughter.) Wo have tiino to enjoy ourselves, and we sin if wo don't do it. Enjoyment is one of the necessaries of human life, and it is much better for us to givo the young a good wholesome pleasure than to have thein steal impurities. They will have it, and if not given it will be stn len. (Cheers and laughter.) Give our youug men and young women proper out doors pleasure, and we shall have fewer diseased bodies, fewer puny frames and pale faces. Wo shall have more mothers and moro babies, (laughter,) and the latter, that are now lilies of the valley, and soon go un-liei the valley, will thou bo more robust; they will then live and thrive, and grow up to be men and women, such as men and women should be and were meant to be. lit* wanted to see such men. lie did not belicvo that a saint could not ho a good fat robust fellow, nor did ho believe that a pinched visage was an evidenco of morals, lie wanted men to be strong and healthy on purpose to be moral and virtuous. Tlio devil, in his opinion, had ten times the chance to hit a man who was always complaining of his stomach ami livor, than be J.ail to hit one who was whoie and sound. Therefore ho wanted whole men, strong men, men who had no dyspepsia to complain of, who had no neuralgia racking their systems. Both were hut only other names for devils, and to cast them out he wanted out door pleasures and exercise. [At litis moment the shrill whist!#* r?f' . ? pas.sitig locomotive drowned the speaker's toice, and he waited. "One at a lime,'' fcaid he; "I give it tip! I am fas', enough to heal many tiling*, but a locomotive wan never one of tlieinl" (Groat laughter.)] The speaker then said he would pass j bom men and women to the other animal* ?*t' mention.

He would lo God that ho li could strike tho rapacious eagle from our "I country's coiu, and substitute for it the gi horse. Tho eagle is the thief of the air, as cl the lion of tho forest. Your horse is the ju 1 only honest man amongst them. (Ap- ri plauso.) The speaker said he was uow at the show; nml ho was very glad lie had come, lie had been urged and entreated to stay away, and not lo oncourage any u such scheme.

This train is com j,, posed of eight cars.

The dining room car is a lj( lilllo cfuf d'eevre of comfort and ingenuity. et The interior is of carveJ oak wood, the win- g, dows and pauncls are surmounted by es lr cnlcheons, enlivened with gilding. The \ furniture is also of carved oak wood, cover- p( ed with yellow, red, and gold embossed t|, leather. The terrace car is simply n floor, w enclosed by a rich iron balustrade, and cov- g( ; ered l>y a roof supported by twisted col- :p| umns, surmounted by eagles to form the h0 capitals. Reaches of carved oak wood are a, placed all along the railing, covered with embossed leather, col responding to that of yf the dining room, with magnificent curtains of Auhusson tapestry, which can at pleas w ure bo drawn entirely around the cars.
