PHILADELPHIA: 1876. In that it has in it @ little of everything, the Main Building may be compared to a well-stocked old-fashioned country store. Ite scope and variety are very much wider, to be sure, and the grade of quality is also far higher; but the resemblance nevertheles3 holds goc 4, insomuch that each contains as near a8 may be somewhat of everything necessary to meet the wants and tastes of everybody within its range. To visitors from remote points, who rarely have oppor- tunities for visiting the larger cities, the whole display in this bulldisg will be fasci- nating and instractive, but those who live in or pear the great marts of trade wiil fad ln itmuch that they are already familiar with, or can easily see in detail in the im- Tense repositories of all kinds of merchan- dise to Le found In the csaters of tadastry and commerce. Toe bulk of the coatribu- tious from ourown country and als> from the countries with which it has clog3 trade relations, like England, France, Belgium, Germany, Austria, and Italy, are such as the majority of visitors are more or less familiar with, and much or little time may be given to them, according to circumstances or individual inclination. On the other hand, the natural products and manufactured arti_ cles sent by ne various countries with which our commercial intercourse Is not so intimate ought to have the deliberate atteutioa of all. They will be found wonderfally attractive in themselves, and @ careful study of their pecullarities, aided by a “omparison with those of likeor nearly like character from other countries, will’ prove to be a most pleasant and instructive be of spending time. Under the latter head ought to be especially named the exhibits of Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Rassia, Spato, Portagal, Mexico, the South Americaa coantries, India. the Orange Free State, the Hawatian Islands, and the remote aad isolate colonies of Great Britato, Spata, and Holland. Tne contributions of Tarkey and Egypt, and also those of China and Japan, are likewise worthy of and will doubtiess receive much attention. Those of Turkey and Egypt come, however, under the head of relics auc curiosities, rather than modera achieve- ments, while those of Chins and eb geo may be said to illastrats the minor and uaique walks of industry more strictly than the grander and more important results of human effort, which an exposition like this is mainly intended to bring together. Tne time given to their inspect'on may there fore he said to be spent in the gratification of curiosity and taste rather than in the ac- quirement of solid information touchtog the Worid’s activity and rea! progress under the varying conditions of climate and circum- stauce. Taose whose interest or taste inciine them fn the latter direction will find that attention given to the sections representing the other countries specially named wil! yield the most practical and substantial results. a Considering the mediocre quality of a great mauy pictures to be seen in the vari- ous galierles, and judging also from the great number offered for sale, one migut think that most of the foreign artists looked upon this exposition as a mere commercial speculation, rather than an exhibition of art, in its higher aspects. Tae whole of the Austrian collection, for example, is in the market. The same or nearly thesame may be said of that of the Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, and the Argeatin: Repab lic; and a fair proportion of the otner lead. lng exhibits in the same line may als) be bought, The highest price askel for aay of the paintings offered for saie (som of the Englisn pictures 2r2 held to da worth by their present owners, but they are nu the market,) {8 for Matart’s ‘Venice payi g homage to Catariua Cornaro,” watch 1, ex- cept Rothermei’s fearful Battie of Gast! burg, the largest picture ia tas exa.s The figure named for this is $15,000. pext in value in the Austrian exuibit lix’s ** Pan and Bacchantes,” heid at $10 00) Others ia the same room for watch large figvres areaske! are Biaas’ *Cantaur car- rying off a Nympb,” $4,000; Hlavacex’s land- scapes, “ Palatinate of the Rhine,” der the LMapie Tree,” and Biaas’ and Ulysses,” $5,009 each; Cano: with Fruit,” and *; 2,” Sehonn's 6 ofan Orieaial Woman.” Rass’ view “from the J.

As the grade of the English collection is bigher than that of any other in the exhibition, so are the prices named for page gers init which may be bought rather highest, as a rule.

K. LOOKING AT THE GIRLS.—Nearly all the Centennial visitors tothe Treasury depart ment, particularly the nanghty men, will persist in standing at the doors of rooms in which the female Sere are at work. One sentimental youth asked the doorkeeper at the main entrance to-day “if he could go tn and see the girls.” He went in. planted bimself at the door of the currency division feasted his eyes with much evident sat- faction. Itmay be well to remind these well-meaning but ill bred admirers of the beautiful tbat those-giris” are mostly ladies by birth and edueatio: THE PRESIDENTS REPLY TO EMPE2OR WILLIAM.—The President's reply to the Emperor of Germany’s letter of congratula- tion on the occasion of the centennary of American independence, says: ‘Your letter of June 9, in which you were pleased to offer your cordial congratulations upon the occa sion of the Centennial anniversary which we have recently celebrated, was placed in my hands on the Fourth of July, and its con- tents were perased with uafeignei satisfac- tion. Such expressions of sympathy for the past progress of this country and of good wishes for its further weifare as are con- talned in that communication gratifying because they from the of o great Empire with which this Re. public, during the whole century of its exist ence, has maintained relations of peace and friendship, which have been couspicuous alikein prosperity and in adversity, ana have become continually firmer with the in creasing progress and prosperity of both countries. It is my sincere desire that this mutual cordiality and this Lge antes A which bave been the lot of the two countries dur ing the first century of our independeace may be vouchsafed to them during the ceo- tury which is tocome.

Jonathan Norcross, the republican candi- date for governor of Georgia, addressed a mixed meeting at Augusta last night. He charged the democratic party with extrava- ance and incompetency in ee ances of the state, and asserted that State Treasurer Jones had ap; riated from the treasury several hundred thousand dollars under the administrations of Governor Jen- kins and Governor Smith. The crowd inter- rupted the speaker so often that he termi. pated bis address sooner than he intended.

They would be required to give up all Indians that came in from the hostties, who must, give up their arms aad become prisoners. ie desired that ail those Indians on the west side of the river should move up near the post, where they could be Properly looked after. THE INDIANS WANT TO DO AS THEY PLEASE. Grass insinuated tat the agent had been in the habit of letting them go about as tney pleased. But now they were obliged to give up and be treated as slaves, and intimated pretty piainiy that they should continue dotpg as they had in the past—that ie, as they pleased. hetber they will continue to assume this attitude the fature will decide. THERE 1S SUFFICIENT FORCE to quell any outbreak the Indiacs mi make, with the prospect of three additiowsl companies. The only trouble would arise from &@ lack of mounted force. Taree com panies of the Ilia infantry are now en route lo the agency, making the garrison nice companies.
