As usual, all Railroad apd Steamboat Transportation Lines wii put their rates to Chicago aud return on hard-pan basis, selling coupon tickets to the Exposition. On many of the lines, gentlemen, familiar with the business, are making arrangements to run general ExeursionsJ which have heretofore been proflta ble te "those managing them, and cheapened the cost of transportation to the Excursionists. As to the Exposition itself, we are assured that extraordinary "efforts and very large expenses have jbeen made by the managers to render it in all important departments the mast instructive and far the most attractive, display, of its Glass in America. The local pride of Chicago is fully enlisted in the work, and it is safe to say that no visitor will be disappointed.
