NEW YORK HERALD, THURSDAY, JUNE 15, 1876--TRIPLE SHEET : "THE EXHIBITION. The World’s Fair Favorably Reported | on in Europe. A Tour Through the Kin- dergarten. Purcapenruta, June 14, 1876, Although the American Centennial Exuibition is ad- mitted to be unparalteled, both in the extent and variety ef the combined displays, is could not, even if a | bondred times larger or more interesting, attract a wingle foreign visitor to our shores without the ossist- ance of the foreign press and the co-operation of its representatives, No matter how mag- nificont on entertainment may be, it attains Success only when thoroughly advertised; atid ap international exhibition is no exception to this oft-tested rule It would be better that every Journal in Europe should denounce the enterprise than | that it should be ignored, for even then by exciting the curiosity, if not the sympathy, of the reading pub- lic, it would be advertised in # way to insure a ree spectable attendance from abroad. It is, however, very pleasant know that, without exception, the foreign press has warmly supported and heartily recommended the mighty undertaking, both editorially and in the graphic descriptions published by its correspondents. he following list of representatives of European jour- nals in daily attendance at the grounds will show that many tireless and talented pens are already engaged in the work.

THE KINDERGARTEN, The various educational systems of the world are well ropresented ai tue Centennial grounds, and a tour through any of the departments will be found both en- lertaining and instructive. To the average visitor not supposed to have made a special study of any particu. Jar branch, but having a geveral interest in the subject, no more pleasant place can be discovered than the Kindergarten now ip operation near the Women’s Pa- Villon, This school or playroom, as it may be termed, 4s located in the pretty Gothic school building erccte by the Woman’s Centennial Executive Committee and the sessions are held every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday worming from ten o'clock until half-past twelve. The juvenile mstitution ts in charge of a ton lady, who came to this city last October, and who, ufler au examination of the Various homes and asy- lums of the city, selected a class of sixteen tiny pupils from the 1pm: of tue Northern Home fur Friendless Children, all of whom were iminediately introduced to the instructive pieasures of the Kindergarten, and Bt the opeuing of the Exhibttion were tar advanced, The system, us originated by Frederick Froebel, of Germany, realiy beginsein the nursery, where the mind of the iniant is Jed onward to a’natural yet Tapid development, which far better fits it inafter life | for the reception of new ideas than could be possible 1 allowed to gam a knowledge oi the him without intelligent direction, In Pp s, beils, dolls and other toys the bave ts first given six balis of the three primary and secondary colors, Aud these give the child bis first idea of difference in polor. The mother or nurse, when the child tires of playing with the balls, takes first oue and then another, and, holding each by the string to which it is attached, swings it back and jorth in some well defined direction and general relation to some other object, such as a spool, a small box, &c. This amuses the child, and, as the motions are made systematically, ne gradually learns the relation of one object to another, and thus gains his first icea of the relation of himself to the world around him. The little one becomes no longer B seitish centre of the universe, but begins to waguely realize the fact that his existence is only apart ofa mighty whole. This isa lesson which many children ot a larger growth only learn by dearly bought experience, late in lite. The little student 1s thus led bn from one icea to another until the age of three years ls reached, when he enters the Kindergarten proper. Here there are no formidable looking text books, no spectacied teacher with # ferrule, no long hours of sit- Hing on a hard wooden beneh; not even an a!phabet is to be found," The lessons are actually play; the cll dren laugh and talk to their heart’s content, only being kept in their seats a litte while at a time. The studies, or, rather, exercises, relate purely to the development of all the mental faculties by such a batural process that the child is instructed without be- ing wearied, and taught while beng amused. Every intetiectual power js brought into constant employment by a coytinuance of the same system which was first used in the nursery, and the clas now at the ground have so far progressed that they seem, if by some mMtuition, to grasp at once apy idea which it may be | desirable to impress upon their min Their play, which is permitied during the session at short inter: vais, consists in {mitating birds, animals, sounds aod motions of all kinds which they hear or peo, Never was seen a more joyous and in- telligent class of litle ones than the Kindergarten atthe Centennial ground i 80 tar as actual, education i& cerned are at loust two years ahead of their lees fortunate companions of the | sameage.

To tux Eviron or tux Hrraup:— On the 26th day of January; 1876, ! made application for space for an exhibit at the International Exhibition in Philadelphia, Atter which I received a communica- Mion from Director General A. F. Gosborn, wherein it stated that ‘my application for spaco was received and registered, It will be examined, and when the space 1s allotted you will be duly notified. Tho register num- ber of your application ts 7,963, Have the kindness in any future correspondence relating to your proposed exhibit to mention this pumber.”’ In tho month of April | was duly notified that I bad been allotted spaco in Memoriai Hall, second story, gallery No. 10 The latter part of April I forwarded my exhibit in accord- ance with the instructions aa stated in a formula for the guidance of exhibitors, in shipment, &e. I also appoisted an agent’ in Philadelpbia—in fact, carried out to the letter all ruies and reguiations laid down tor the information of exhibitors. On the 22d day of May 1 visited Mr. John Sarta‘n’s office (the Chief of the Art Bureau), for the purpose of seeking information. | was iviormed by his representative that he could not bo | seca at present, being engaged. I was then informed tbat my exhibit bad to pass ac ommittee, and that such committee had not made their report on my exbib: although he thought that i that im cage it had not been pase of the fact in the course of two weeks, since which 1 received a blank form for the information of the Judges of Awards, which 1 immediately returned, filled up as requested, and from the tact of several parties having of late returned from | the Exhibition, and informed me that they had seen. my exhibit hung in Memorial Hall, it seems very strange to me, and appare: will to yourself, that on the Soth of May, when my agent sends in an applica- tion for a pass, the application is returned to him in- dorsed as follows xhibit declined tor Art Gallery,” accompanted with a communication, “That the exhibit sont is declinod ag unsuitable for an art gallery.” Why, then, wag it hung there? I applicd tor space for an exhibit styled “Penmunship."’ On the 8d Inst. I wrote a letter of grievance to the Director General and to the Chiel of the Art Bureaa, both ot which I marked ‘per. sonal importance.”” Up to this date | have not re- coived any reply whatever, 1 would also state that shortly alter £ bad made application for space I re- coived a circular irom Messrs. Ureyer, Simpson & Co., | of Philadelphia, soliciting the agency of my exhitit, Upon communicating with them as to their terms they Tesponded and at the same time sent mo a blank form of Exhibition application for space, upon the left hand | corner of which there was stamped in a conspicuous manner the initials of said firm (D.,% & Co.). Was it because I looked to the interest of my purse, and did not employ Dreyer, Sinipson & Co, as my agents, that I have been so unjusily dealt with? Can you throw some light on this subject? HENRY LEOW, No. 38 Howaxp strege, New York, June 14, 1876, FOURTH OF JULY CELEBRATION. The citizens of Fort Washington and Washington | Heights held a meeting on Tuesday evening, at the rooms of the Library Association, and made arrange- | ments to celebrate the oue hundredth anniversary of our national independence. It was decided that a din- ner will be given at Sheddler’s, and that thero will be a display of fireworks in the evening, HOW RON. WAS SHOT, The saloon of Farrer & Lyon, in South strect, was on Tuesday evening the scene of a shooting afiray which will probably termmate in the death of a promi- neut Seventh ward politician, Deputy Sheriff Stephen HL. Rogan, of No, 162 Henry street, who is employed in the Order of Arrest office. From the facts in the case, a8 developed on the examination before Justice Wandell in the Tombs Police Court yesterday, it would scem that John O'Toole, keeper of a sailors’ boarding house at No, 52 Oliver strect; Jim Curran, alias «‘Bullet,” a sailors’ boarding house keeper, of No, 4 Hamilton strect; John Mangin, alias “‘Muggins,” a sailor runner; Edward Laifey, a shipping agent, of South street; Mickey'Fay, an ex-clerk of Fulton Mar- ket; Michael Costello, alas “Strong-urmed Mike;’ a sporting man, and a pumber of others were drinking together in the saioun and O'Toole was | intoxicated. Ronan drove down to the Fulton ferry 10 @ carrige and entered Farrer & Lyon’s saloon, Ho was ball drunk and very excited. When he saw O'Tovle he ran up to him and said, “You cow- ardly , What do you want to talk’ to me for? You are talking behind my back.”’ He then struck O'Toole twice in the face, and O'Toole immediately drew a five-chambered revolver and fired. The bail entered Ronan’s right vreast. He staggered for a mo- ment and fell against the bar. One ot the barteaders named McKenzie supportea him. Officer MeWouneil, of the Firat procinct, who heard the shot, rushed in and Jound O'Toole wita the reverver in his band and ar- rested him. Ronan tore open his shirt and, showing the wound in his breast, suid, ‘That's the 1 who shot me.” Ho then refused to mike any comptant against O'Toole, and in the New street station retused to allow the police or ambulance surgeon to examine his | wound, and demanded that he should be taken bome | to his Tesidence, which was done, O'Toole, against whom there are several indictments in the District At- torney’s office ior swindhivg, and who is known in the Fourth wardas ‘Justice’ O'Toole, from his habit of representing himself as a Marino Court justice to sail- ors and detrauding them, when arraigned belore Jus. tice Wandell said that he acted in seli-detonee, aud t he had oniy purchased tho revolver an hour belore, in- tending to present it toasea capiain, He was com. mitted, without bail to await the result of Ronan’s injuries, THE HAVANA DEFAULTRR, The s' hips City of Now York and Wilmington arrived in this city yesterday from Havaua, but neither of them broucht Ricordo Monocul, the fugitive Spanish | Collector of Taxes at Havana, who is accused of appro.

THE LATEST PARTICULARS COKCERNING THE SHOOTING OF JESSUP, {From tho Denver News, June 10.) A few new facts came to hight, yesterday re- garding the duel fought on Thursday at River Bend, between Albert Jessup and 0. Davis, cattlemen. In yesterday's News it was stated that the nature of the difference botween thom hed not transpired. A gen- tleman who arrived from River Bond yestorday gives a different version of the affair. He says that Jessup and Davis were drunk, that being, unfortunately, the to common condition of the tormer, who had beon sent out hore to reform somo years since. Davis end aberder got tuto a row and Jessop took the herder's part, when Davis suggested a resort to arms, und Winchester rifle as bis weapon. Jessup said y wanted the Coll’s revolver which hung at his side. The two walked away, and in three mioutes from the time they leit the station wore shooting at cach ov An eye witness says that Jessup was so drunk that be reeied put, and two of his three shots were fired up in the air, Davis, who is a crack shot, had an easy task be- fore him, and tt is thought bo purposely Hired wiid the first time and devberately drew a fine bead the second shot, biting his target jast where he aimed. lt was little eige than an assussination, Davis is sti at jarge, and a reward is to be offered for bis capture.

BEDUCTION OF RATES FoR PASSENGERS AND FREIGHTS—-HOW THE TROUBLE STANDS. The quarrel among the great railroad companies as to freignt rates and passenger fares still continues, and was marked yesterday by @ still jurther reduction at certain points of its route by the Erie Railway Com- pany. During the past ten days the fight, which had been so long coming gradually to open hostility, has been growing warmer and warmer, Until a few weeks ago the Grand Trunk Company had been generally con- ceded by the other trank companies the privileze of charging higher rates on account of its routes being longer and the road inferior to its rivals; but the New York Central opposed this concession, and insisted that if the Grand Trunk Company could charge $25 85 from Chicago to Boston the New York Cen- tral was also entitled 10 do the same, The Grand Trunk rosonted this as unfur and reduced its rases in token of its defiance, The New York Central was then obliged 40 follow, and, of course, the Erie and the Penn- sytvania roads were also compelied to yield, The iirst | reduction of the Grand Trunk was to $22 for passen- gers from Boston to Chicago, and the New York Cen- trai toilowed with a reduction ot from $22, the old slandard rate, to $15 to or from Bostow $17 to or from New York. The Bric, however, considered tht there was $2 of a difference beiween Boston and New York anv reduced the fare according!y, \oreimg the Now York Central aud the Pennsylvania Central to follow. ‘Then the Grand Trunk suil further reduced fts rates ‘o $14 between Chicazo and Boston and again to $12, and the New York Centrai was obliged again to follow, bet ony coming down to $17 aud $16, and’ eub- soquently making the tare $15. ‘he princi- ple, however, tuat the Grand Tronk Company should wot charge more for its passenger freight than the other companies did was not sustained, and the quarrel (hen became one between the Erie and the New York Central The rate to Chicago had yesterday come down to $1 Nothing had been ard either at the ofliges of th w York Central, the Erie, or the Pennsylvania companics lMst evening to moke it probable that A STILL FURTHER REDUCTION woeld be determined upon during the night, For a few days after the reduction to Chicago bed first bcon made no change 1n rates occurred iu any of the inter- mediate points, but the Erie compeny soon reduced the fare to Buflalo trom $9 26, by successive gradations to $5, putting the round trip at $9. The otber com- panics have not yet come down so low as this, nor have they toliowed Eric's lead in the reduction of the rates in New York to and trom Utica, Syracuse, Oswego, Anburn, Genova, Canandoigus ana Rochester, which Went Into force yesterd: In regard to treights there has been a great redec- tion going on gradually since March last, Freight ts row carried between Chicago and Boston at 20c. per ewt. During ihe past wo weeks there bas been a still further reduction of westward bound freight, from 75e. to 2c, per cwt. onthe rst three classes and in tbe last two from 45¢, “to 16, There 1s no opinion ventured by the railroad officials as to when the war now going on shall cease, 1 companiesure all at variance among themselves, aud arc watching each, other for some now development with cot At anxjety, When one moves all have got to move, especially in regard to the traflic 10. ai Chicago. ‘Ihe reduction of the freight rates was forced upon the great roads becaase the Baltimore and Ohio road was sweeping away at reduced rates all the freight from Chicugo to Baltimore, where the Grana Trunk Company took charge of 1t for ita desti- nation, It 38 claimed that the passenger rates did not muke so mudh Gifference, still no one company could aiford to aliow a riyal to outstep it in public favor, MASTER CAR BUILDERS. ‘The tenth annual session of the Master Car Builders’ Asfociation was opened yceterday morning im the Grand Central Hotel. Mr. Leander Garey, President, oc- cupied the chair and Mr, C, A. Smith acted as secretary. Every railway car manafacturing company inthe United States was represented. After the meeting waé called to order the President said:—‘‘To-day the question is, How cheap is it possible to transport the products of tho farm and manufactory trom the producer to tho consumer and pay a fair interest on the money im- vested? Cheap and rapid transportation aro apparently no hearer accomphahed than they @ when wo met Inst year. One year ago hoped for a year of general prosperity for the wholo country, while the result has been a large shrinkage in business and prices. Railroads and their employés have felt this shrinkage more keenly perhaps than any other extensive business enterprise, and it 1s our duty, realizing the facts stated, to assist wiih ail the knowl. edge our combined experience affords juce the cost of construction and repairs of cars as a means to accomplish the desired end. Dead weight as compared with paying weight should receive careful considera- tion, Our cars should be built as light as possible. The following resolution was then offered and adopted :— Resolved, That it is the sense of this Convention that a train brake for freight trains is practicable, is oxceed- le, would save large amounts in coxt of repai ‘and destruction of car wheels, could be applied at n moderate cost, and we recommend sich united.action ‘on the part of the managers of our respective ronda as will speedily cause ite adoption, Reports were then read and accepted:—On draw bars and baffors, brakes, car repair statistics, freight car trucks, car wheels and ventilation. The Committee on Ventilation reported that 1,000 cubic fect of fresh air per minute for each sixty pas- sengers during all seasons of the year 18 the least amouut to be considered a8 suflicient. ,This is only from one-half to one-third of the amount requisite for petfect salubrity, and in warm weather the supply may be increased indelinitely, according to the changes of heat or the demand for comfort, jo best way to get that air is by wickets over the ond sash and wickets over the dome. Good ventilation must be free from cold dratts, The sessions will close this evening. Many of the members of tho Convention are going to visit the Cen- tennial Exhibition. The models of cars, brakes, &c., shown at this Convention are worthy of general at- tention, THE STEWART ESTATE. A CLAIMANT OF A SHARE IN IT WRITES FROM NORTH CAROLINA—HIS PEDIGREE AND INTEN- TIONS.

FINAL COMPETITION FOR POSITIONS IN THE CENTENNIAL TEAM—NAMES OF THE SUCCISS- YUL COMPETITORS. The final day's shooting to decide the selection of twelve marksmen—eight for a team and. four as re- serves—to represent the United States in the inter- national Centennial match, occurred yesterday. The agony 1s over at last and the team selected. In accords ance with the first orders issued by the joint com- mittee sixteen of the leading shots were selected from all competitors on the uggregate scores of two days’ shcoting over tho 800, 900 and 1,000 yards ranges. The competition, however, proved unsatisfactory at the start, as the sequel has shown, and, instead of six- teen, twenty-four were at Orst selected from the entire number of competitors. Two more days were ap- pointed for a further test at similar distances, and then sixteen were selected, fifteen of whom have been shooting for the past two days to determine who the twelve composing the team and reserve should be, This matter was decided on the aggregate scores of the two latest competitions, being the record for four days at 800, 900 and 1,000 yards, fitteen shots being allowed at each of the first two Tanges and twenty at tho last mentioned.
