I am pleased to hear, from the papers, cially your letter that an in- terest is felt in Was! ton im favor of a Na- tonal or World’s Fair. I have given much attention to this subject, ee hap tb ene way in my power to aid the en! ou ask what has been done in Boston in relation to a National Fair? With pleasure I will give you the rise, progress, and present state of the case. 1 must be a Jittie personal, which I trast you willexcuse. 1 Bad the honor to at Massachusetts at the Pans Exdosition in 1867, and during my stay there, conceived the idea of a World’s Fair in the United States in the year 18:6. In wy letterf to Goxernor Ballock and tothe pa- Pers this idea was promulgated, and also in 4 report to the department I recommended e same. ‘In June of 1565 a public meeling was held in Music Hall, Boston, where the medals and di- Plomas awarded at the Paris Exposition were officially presented by Governor Ballock. This was a very laage and infiaential meeting. At this meeting a resolutio: was ofered rs- newlag my suggestion to hold a fair in this oem and that Washington be the place. Since then @ committee has been appointed, who have corresponded with Governors and other distinguished gentlemen in all the States ofthe Union. Many responses have been re. ceived, all favorable to the proposed object. ‘That committee will soou hold another meet- ing, when some definite action 1s proposed. shailbe most happy to aid in any way in my power to accomplish so grand & purpose; for m my judgment st would do much to bring the states into harmoniousaction, and cement us together as one people. Allow me to say, y experience in the Paris Exposition, I do not think it possible to have an exebibttion next year that would do credit to our industrial interests or accomplish the dbject and teach the lessons desired. To get upa National Fair ia keeping with the growing interests of America, will take munch time. Thereis none too much time to begin now and hold the fair in 1876. Any less tame would fail to accomplish those results necessary to make it @ complete success. I senda copy of my report upon the Paris Exposition, aud an account of the meeting ‘which passed the resolation u which our committee was appointed and {s now acting. i feel sure that Boston. Massachusetts, and New bom pee will be proud to aid in bolding 8 fair if Washineton in 1876, or any other time that should be deemed best, but on that year the national heart could be touched as at no other time, and the East, West, North. and South would come together with the results of their industry, and the lesson ‘would teach is that we are one and inseparabie.
