Ep.Nevapa Crry Transcerpr:— Many who expect-d tbe Exposition to remuio open after the 10tu of Noveluber, have nscertuined that the ramor to that effect is gronudless, the Boirds of Finuauce aud the Centennial Commission having definitely decided te gluseit at that dite, sta-, ting as a reasy 1,thet the obstacles iu the way would prevent-the euterprise from being. a snecess, bowever mnoch their, dnchusiow prompts thenr toa different course.
