It fs to be an immense building and tsgoing tofur- nish an excuse for every great congress, conven- Uon or assemblage of people to meet in that city. One faction, possessing an apt idea of good bust- ness principles, want to give the enterprise a ‘boom by having the President lay the corner-stone on the occasion of his visit. He 1s to review the Procession from that point, and they think it Wouid be a clever thing to.
