PEACE AND PROSPERITY. Louisiana’s Efforts to See and Be Seen in 1876. It Must Be a General Reunion of Americans, We give to-day a third mstalment of letters con- taining tne views of Governor Beveridge, of Illt- nois; Governor Jacons, of West Virgint: nor Porter, of Tennessee, and Governor Kellogg, of Louisiana, in reference to the Philadelphia Exhibition, Though somewhat diverse on gen- eral matters, the leading idea throughout is that, Jor the honor of the country, the celebration must be successiul in all respects. Governor Porter | says, “This celebration ought to draw all. the States togetber, and ought to be tne means of dissipating and forever blotting out the curse of sectionalism and sectional feeling.” ILLINOIS. A BRIEF, POINTED STATEMENT RY GOVERNOR BEVERIDGE—‘“‘THE FITNESS OF THINGS.” SPRINGFIELD, March 31, 1875. Ihave had the pleasure of a orief but practical | interview with Governor Beveridge on the sub- | ject of the great Exhibition to be held next year | in the Quaker City. The Governor spoke with a certain reserve, but said sufficient to indicate thas | he was willing to help forward the movement | much more than numerous members of the Legis jature, “I have called to ascertain for the HERALD your views of the Centennial Exhibition.” THE GOVERNOR'S REMARKS, “As [have already stated in my Message upon the subject Iregard the Centenntal as a fitting occasion for an exhibition which shall jastly reflect the growth and development of the country in the arts, manufactures and inaustries, its resources and its progress in all that constivates high olvili- zation, To this end it is proper that {llinols should be dily represented, and for this purpose the Commissioners appointed under the joint resolution of the General Assembly to represent | the interests of the State at the Exhibition have asked, and in my Message I have recommended, an appropriation of $10,000, Lhe amount is scant for the purposes contemplated, but when the Centen- nial is nearer at hand and public interest is more enlisted in the project possibly an additional ap- propriation may be made, The feeling upon the subject is at present rather languid, and it is pos- sibie that at the present session no appropriation will be made, though the amount is so small that is now asked that tne prospect is favorable. A HINT TO THE LEGISLATURE. “I have not recommended any appropriation in aid of the erection of the Centenntal building ‘at | Philadelphia. I do not think the State of Ilimots should be asked to contribute to that, It (the building) is in the nature of a local enterprise for the benetit of the olty of Philadeiphia, and if aid has to be extended at all perhaps the general government should be called upon. “The Linnois Commission is headed oy Mr, Joho P. Reynolds, of Chicago, who represented this State at the Vienna Exposition, and has been in- timately identified with the great Chicago Exposi- tion. In bis hands it may be assumed Iliiuois’ representation at the Centennial will be arranged jor in a satisfactory manner. And now,” said His Excellency, “is there anything else the HeraLp wants to learn ‘rom me about it?” WEST VIRGINIA. GOVERNOR JACOBS ANXIOUS, BUT IN DOUBT— THE STATE LEGISLATURE MUST PROVIDE THE WAYS AND MEANS. CHARLESTON, March 31, 1875. Leaving out the patriotic spirit which animates and enilvens the breast of the average West Vir- | ginian, the chance afforded by the Fniladelpnia Centennial to exhtbit the mineral resources of tuts | infant State makes thatevent a matte: of con- siderable concern and still greater interest here. To develop these great resources is the grand problem, the solution of which agi‘ates the minds ofall West Virginia patriots and statesmen, con- | sequently the eagerness with which they embrace the golden opportunity aforded by the Centennial of 1876 is strikingly observable. GOVERNOR JACOBS’ VIEWS. In reference to this matter a reporter of the HERALD called upon Governor Jacobs to ascertain bis views. The Governor was found at his resi- dence, seated near a bright coal Ore, in the quiet enjoyment of a pipe, the fragrant wreaths of smoke testifying tnat the weed he used was a product of the sacred soll of the Mother State. In reply to various inquiries he said that though he strongly favored the great aims and objects of the Centeunial, he had made no reference to it in | bislast annual Message to the Legisiature, whicn vody be was glad to state was avout to pass a law Appointing three comumisstoners, whose auty it will be to see that West Virginia ts properly rep- resented at the Exnibition. Hon. A. RK. Boteler, of this State, a former member of the United States Congress, is one of the Vice Presidents of the Centennial, and as he 18 @ great personal friend of the Governor he will havo the moral aid aad support of the Executive | in all he undertakes in its bebaif. “Individually,” said the Governor, in explanation of his position, “I strongly favor the Centennial; but I deemed it proper and politic not Lo advise the Legislature on | the subject, but rather to let that body act for | itself. I wish the State represented, but I think | the jegislative branch of the government should | control the matter. An appropriation futiy ade- quate to the means spd financial standing of the State wiil be made, to insuro a first class repre- sentation.’ Tae Governor added that West Vir- ginia would make @ show that would surprise even the great iron and coal State—Pennsyl- vania.

NaswviLee, April 2, 1 lealied upon Governor Porter and at once pro- | ceeded to lay belore him the object of my visit, which, { told him, Was to ascertain what action he proposed taking on behal! of the State witn re- | gara to the Centennial celebration at Philadelphia, Q. In which there was some reierence made to | Lasked him what be thought of the celebration and be replied as follows :— Governor PonteR—I am greatly in favor of it and anything eise woich will have so great a ten- dency to exalt the nation ana to show forth her progress during the hundred years of her exist- ence. This celebration ought to draw ail the | States together, and ought to be the means of dis. | sipating and jorever blotting out the curse of sectionalism and:soctional feeling. It ought to cultivate @ broad spirit of unity and brotherly | kindness, Ip its Participation the war and all its | subsequent evils should and will be obliterated, and we shall move along through the next cen- tury as strongly ywemented together in the one common object okperpetuating a republican gov- ernment, CORRESPONDENT—Will you take any action with regard to having Tennessee fully represented * THE QUESTION OF APPROPRIATIONS, Governor Porten—I received a letter from A. T. Goshorn, Director General, recentiy, and have been Somewhat troubled as to what course [should ptrsue. The qnesvion resis npon the fact as to whether the State will have the ability to furnish the tioney to-meet the demands of such an under+ taking. There is now, you know, @ hue and cry allover the State abous its financial condition, | ‘This is an imaginary trouble on the part of the | peopie, There is no inability om tie part of the | State to meet all the demands made upon it. There ts no doubt that there are many men in the State who, by reason of the panic of 1873 and the drought of last season, are in a desperate strait. Much of the clamor proceeds from them. They are using ail their energy to meet their liabilities, and are, therefore, opposed to anything having & tendency to depress them, though it be of a light nature, But the cry has been so persistens that all alike proclaim “hard times.” For inscance, a farmer in my county came (o me tie other day and complained of “hard times.” I asked him whether ne owed anything. He replied, “No,” Whether he bought as much and lived as well as he ever did. He said “Yes.” “Well, then,” I satd, “you have very little togrieve you.” CORRESPONDENT—Will you recommend any ac- tion on the part o! the Legislature relative to the Centennial celebration? Of life, The coat of arms and some of tne products of each State occupied a conspicuous place on the tables, The private boxes were beautifully orna- mented witn bunting, moss and flowers, resom- bling minature hothouses. In the art gallery of the hall was @ representative of the ship Dartmouth lying in Boston Harbor. Two boys, dressed in Indian costume, were sta- tioned on board the vessel busily engaged in throwing miniature tea cuests overboard. Gri!- fin’s wharf was shown to good advantage, and also the old stone buliding abutting on the dock. in the distance was a sinall vessel lying at anchor, whica served to represent one of tue ships wuich sailed out from the suore into deep water. Beside the thirteen tables in the main body of the pall there was tne national table ina recess at the Tear of the stage. 1c occupied the most prominent place and was built in the shape of a star. in the centre was a large figure, at the base of which were four other figures representing the promi- nent trades ot Pittsourg, iron boiling, mining, blowing and blacksmithing. ‘Tne noral Governor PorrzR—Not until after the discussion | decorations of this table were simply exquisite, of the financial problems is over. CoRRESPONDENT—W hat will you recommend ? tne iragrance filling the hail. THE COSTUMES OF THE CONTINENTALS. The costumes as a ruie were rich, lovely and Governor PoRTsR—An adequate appropriagfion | quaint. The sweetest of giris were attired iu some for the conspicuous display of Tennessee’s im- mense resources. A CHANCE FOR IMMIGRANTS. OCoRRESPONDENT—Then Tennessee will be en- abled to make as great a display as any other State in the Union ? Governor Porren—Yes; and I am decidedly in favor of placing her conspicuously in the fore- ground, and so far as my ability extends it will be done, There is no State in the Union that has greater resources than ours, We have ores of the greatest and the richest variety. There is no limit to its coal, its tron, its marble, plain ana variegated. Timber of the first quality and of every description grows here’in the greatest abundance. The products of the soil are un- equallea. We can raise anything we want, and if we desire make three crops in ono season. We have no gold mines of any consequence, but we have plenty of lead, copper and silver and other ores, It is not egotistical in me nor aD overweening love for my State to say that she could eclipse Pennsylvania in a display of her resources, They have been comparatively un- known, simply for the want of capitai to develop them. CORRESPONDENT—Do you not think that such an exhibition of Tennessee’s wealth as you propose would be worth a score of immigration bureaus? Governor Porrer—I must admit thutI do, [am thoroughly satisfea that if Tennessee should make the exhibition it ought we should have such a stream of immigration to itas she had néver belore known, and that is just what we want. If we bad more of it property would soon increase to suct* a valuation as to make even vhe much-valked-about State debt an easy burden to carry, Besides, our climate is so mild that our winters are comparatively light—so much so that instead of having to build big barns, they do up North, cattle are turned out to g the dweilings instead are built large and open, fora Tenaesseean believes in having plenty of pure, fresh atr. LOUISIANA. GOVERNOR KELLOGG AND THE BOABD OF COMMISSIONERS—A LITTLE WORK BUT NO Par. ’ New ORLEANS, April, 1875. Governor Kellogg has manifested considerable Interest in the Centennial project, and appears to regret that bis rather lively experiences iu office have heretofore prevented him giving the matter the attention and support it deserves, He had purposed recommending a liberal appropriation in his last annual message, but through some oversight the paragraph was omitted. A bill had been passed, however, appointing a State Board of Managers, the appointment of which be haa already filied. These positions were purposely made offices of honor only, without emoiumedt, in order to secure a proper representation and to divest them of any political character. From recent conversations had with Mr. uynch aad ovbers who have taken prominent parts in ths project he believes Louisiana would be well repre- sented, particularly in her two great staples, cot- ton and sugar. He thought, wven the time ap- proached nearer and the present chaotic condi. tion of society bad settled down, that the 10, would be willing to make any reasonable appro- | priation necessary to secure a proper aud credit- able representation at the Exposition, A‘ all events, any measure calculated to contribute to- ward its success would have bis cleeriul aid and co-operation. As usual with everything lately, there has bew~ quibbiing between the politicians as to the object o1 the commission, H, Bonanza, one of the first commissioners appointed, writing to ex-Governor Haba, said:— 1 have been appolnied one of the three commis- stoners ander act No, 99, approved Marca of which, luaderstand, you are the author, Th proviso “toat nothing in this act shail be so cou- Strued a3 to render the State lable serted to exclude certain unworthy competition.

To this ex-Governor Habn replied :— You are wrong in supposing me to be the author of the act unaer whien you and Mr. Lawrence have been appomnted Commissioners for the veantal Exoioition. The btll when offered In House struck me as another attempt to create oflces.

Provided that nothing in this act contained shali be 80 construed as fo render the State liaole for any pay or expenses tur said Commissioners or any persons em- ployed by them. My fist impression as to the real object or tne act Was strengtnened when I ovserved the origina- tors of the measure finaily vote against it because it contained my amendment. Men like yourself and Mr, Lawrence would not have besn selected or appointed as commissioners if pay or expense had veen allowed, Some dead beats snd buminers, ubidentified With the State or with any respect- able society, Would have foisted themseives on Governor Keilogy tor these positions. jate the State on the adoption of my proviso, and belleve toat you and ail good citizens will agree, on reflection, as to 1t8 propriety, To make @n appropriation would have an unfavorable effect on the remaining appoimtunent, and perhaps lead to the displacement »y some shenanagan of the two decent ones that huve been made, PENNSYLVANIA.
