TUE CAAELliSS WOKD. BY TitK IION. JIKS. NORTON. A word is ringing through my brain : It was not meant to give me pain ; It had no tone to bid it stay, When other things had passed away ; It had no meaning more than all Which in an idle hour fall; It was, when first the sound I heard, A lightly-uttered careless word. It was the first, tin;only, one Of those w hich lips forever gone Breathed in their love?which had for mc Rebuke of harshnessat my glee; . And if those lips were here to say, "Beloved, let it pass away," Ah! then perchance?but I havo hoard The last d? ar tone?the careless word Oh! ye who, meeting, high to part, Whose words are treasures to some heart, Deal gently, ere the dark day# come, When eartli hath hut tor one a home; liOt, musing o'er the past like me, They leel their hearts wrung bitterly, And, heeding not what else they heard, . Dwell weeping pn a careless word. Correspondence of the Courier. LONDON. APRIL 25. Yon innr well imagine, Messrs. Editois, from what you see in the London |i?j.ers which I send yon hy this steamer, that there is little else thought of here hut the Ureal Exhibition which now engrosses the attention of every one. I exjierieiieed, however, a fending of disappointment ?t the first sight of the Crystial Palace? a feeling similar to that felt on approaching the Pyramids of Egypt; hut this feeling was succeeded hy one of astouishineut, oil a nearer view of the exterior of the immense structure, and more on entering it and beholding its vast tironortion and dazzling sneiidor. I shall not I?I - t attempt a description of it, for no description can possibly come up to the reality; Its dimensions, however, are?length 1848 ft. Width 108 Height GO feet The Transept 108 feet high. Iron Columns 3*230 ft. Iron (orders *2211. Iron Hearers 11*28. 3-1 miles of Cutter. 1)00,000 feet of Glass. Gallery *21 feet wide. Site 18 acres. The contract is for ? <0,800, or ?130,000 if the building is retained. Through the kindness of friends, I have been enabled to visit the building rej?eatedly, and although every thing is in comparative con lit ion, and thousands ot workmen busily engaged * incompleting and decorating the edifice, and in fitting up and arranging the multifarious objects intended for exhibition, yet a very good owning is afforded to examine those massy ones, many of which tire already in their places, that are likely to attract universal attend mi. It has been officially announced, within a # 4 PtfliildtiAn %irlll Itu nn/lllOll lew oays, uini m? d?iimihi?ii ? by Her Majesty, tlic Queen, on the first day of May, the time originally named for the purpose; and although there is a vast deal to be done, to get every tiling in readiness, there is uot the least doubt that this intention will be carried out. It is supposed that there may be some fifteen thousand persons present in the building to witness this imposing and grand ceremony, admitted by tickets at two and three guineas each, which will alone furnish a handsome proportion of the expense of its erection. The subdivisions of the building have been judiciously made to accommodate all the various nations which have intimated their intention of submitting any of their works of art, manufactures, or products at this great international fair. The western end of the palace is appropriated to the reception and display of the works of British artists and manufactures; ine easi ena to those frorrrthc United States, a:?d the intermediate divisions to the nations of the East and of Europe. France and Germany are liko to take the lead in the beauty and elegance of their pro L. duct ions, whilst England will probably be but ' little, if any, behind them in this respect, and will most likely exceed them in the substantial value and durability of many of their fabrics. It is not to be expocted that our own country is at all prepared at this early period to compete with them in the finer descriptions of manufactures or of objects of art, but in many of thearticles of utility and general use fdlness, I think we shall be able to compare advadtageously with any of thorn. In agricultural implements, the display of which will - * * ' *-"? UM eKnll IFAVIr be large anu uiijhwuj^, ?v.j vawuu any ami all of and in various other de soriptions of manufactures, if we do not excel j we shall at least he enabled to c< in pa re ven j respectably with tlieni, considering that on country is as yet but in its infancy, altliougl that infancy is a herclean one. On my firs i visit to the exhibition, I naturally looked I'o 1 ? -i 1*1 i i.?. those particular injects, which i *m-? n.n i been sent front our own C'itv ami State, am | conspicuous among the number, were the Cy press ('aiine, ami the little Pony Phu'tnn, wliicl itml obtained the premiiiin at the Fair last an j tiiinn in Charleston; and in a lot of bags of Cot toil from the South, the name of "W. (lamp ton," and W. Seabrook," were conspicuous It will till a l'trgu volume merely to cuuuieraN . the names of the various articles which will be j on ex' ibitiou, and any at enipt, therefore, tc I d.'sctibe litem in a letter, woahl be useless The collection oi S .tunlay, in lite depart ! nient of the arts, will be very large, and lltt | number there are many more beautiful than j have ever seen, with some few rare exceptions P>ut the number of I'roir/c figures will exceed beyond all comparison, any which have hete tofore been collected together for public exlti lion ? two or three are pnilieulaily good am imposing?one, a collnssal I.ion, moulded it brass; another a ISronze \uiazoii, mounted up . 011 a powerful horse, and attacked by a fero i cious tiger, which has fastened itself upon tin | hreast and neck of the noble animal, whilst tin j Amazon is in the act of plunging a javelin it I tiie bead of the tiger; these are admitted 011 al hands, to lie amongst tin.1 most imposing am i tea u Li fa I objects in the whole exhibition ? tin i former is from .Munich, the latter from Herliu; there are likewise, i-. the same gionp, two stag; as large as life, which are equally the object, of general admiration. I'm hi the depaitmenl i of the arts, pie eminent above all thers, will lu , found tile ma b'e statute of the great 5>lave|by oin i gifted countiyinan, Powers. It wi'l probabh i be recollected that the one exhibited in Allienj ca was a copy by the same eminent artist, tin. the oiiginal having been sold to an Kngli>li j gentleman, who kindly sends it to the exhibi j tioii ? be values it so highly that an offer of a J veiv la-ge sum, made to him by Prince AlOci l i for it, lias been declined. Foreigners admitted by privilege tickets tn j witness the development and arrangement ol j the various objects to he exhibited at the Fair, have hitherto been excluded from that portion ofthc building assigned to the subjects of( real i?: it:*.in, lint to-day I was permitted to take a stroll through :t. As might be expected, the exhibitors in this division are i:t a greater state of forward less fort.ie display than other u itioiis many of wltooC a; tides have but very ree.-ntly readied Fugl tilt I, and they are indeed upon a very 1 irgc a id i npo.-i.ig seal Tile moat disti-iguishod m iiiufactui iug concern* throughout the three kingdoms have lifted up the most showy stalls and subdivision - i:i tiiespaeeallolled tliem, ami decorated thorn i:i the hamlsomestmanner,in which to display tlieir various lainies, and tin j effect will be to give them a decided advant j age. The display of conches and carriages . is most extensive, embracing every description j of carriage, whether useful or oriiamrutal, that ; has ever been seen, and t.'ie various maker; ilii-o.ur.Hii ilie kiiiotloni seem to have snared mi | labor or expense in produ dug them tot subolau; lial as well as (lie most gaudy vehicles lliat can 1 well be conceived. 'lln* c<mse.|uoilcc is, thai this department will extvod i.i nuinb.-rs al I -asi all thai will be olfered lor iiissj?.*cti??n bv all lac oilier nations represented at tile Fair. Tlieii specimens, also, of locomotive engines ami passender cars, will be enabled to walk over tin. course, as I see none present from any othci country ? those on exhibition ol lbitis.i lain ic.are indeed beautiful specimens ol the maiiuiuctill ing art. The immense Telescope of L >r<l Itoss will also adorn this division of the palace. It lias been thought, considering the immense number employed in the erection of this gigantic edifice and the manner and mode in which it is constructed, necessarily exposing them to accidents, it is fortunate that hut twu lives have been lost i:i the whole operation.? The last of these fatal accidents occurred a day or two since. A man engaged in repairing some of the glass work of the roof lost his : balance, and falling through the floor below, was almost instantly killed. Some difficulty lias been found to keep the roof of (he palace from leaking, the materials of which it is composed being so liable to contract and expand ? the consequence is, that the goods are very liable to be damaged, and to prevent which some of the exhibitors have erected over their respective divisions a canopy of transparent oiled silk or paper, which serves not only to secure them from any falling drops of water, but from dust also. To remedy this difficulty, however, as well as to prevent the too strong rays of the sun upon the sloping roofs ot the edifice from creating too great a degree of heat within, the contractors yesterday commenced covering the entire roof with glazed white cloth, which will no doubt have the desired effect. The government and people generally, have evinced a commendable disposition to afford all the facilities possible, to enable strangers to witness everything of an interesting charnctei in and about London on this occasion; and the American Ministor, who is called upon by most of our countrymen, on their arrival, is ever rea dy to extend his advice and assistance in any and every way in which ho cun afford them aid. The number yet arrived is not so great as it was generally supposed would be presented at the opening of the fair, but there is very little doubt that we shall bo fully represented before it is over. The official programme of tho ceremonies to be observed on the opining of tho Great Exhibition, by her Majesty, will be found in the London papers of yesterday morning?they will no doubt Le of tho most grand and imposing character, and the immense assemblage of tit teen thousand ladies and gentlemen, liesides, , I suppose, as many thousand of attendants ; who will he admitted as exhibitors to the cxliii liitinri and their assistants, all congregated uni der one immense roof, where a very large prot portion of those will he ahle to see each otlir er, and the distinguished parties appertaining to I the Court and of the Diploina'ic Representatives I of the various nations present, will present aspectaele, I should suppose, unsurpassed by any thing of the kind which has been before seen in the woild. The ex Queen of France, relict of Louis i Pit turn-:, with several members of her family, j were present at the Crystal Place yesterday, and of course, attracted much observation ? . what a sad change in their destiny, from the : ..1 ...I L,I>A . .iMili.il nvnr flip ei .Iwiirlnrs nf j tin* Palace of the Tuilleries. The busy note of preperation is every where j heard in making arrangements for opening the i various places of exhibition am! amusement . which are specially dedicated to what is here I termed ''the season/' commencing with May . day. It is predicted that the season this year will Ih? a short one - that the noliility and genI try will he away to the country earlier than i usual, to avoid the noise and bustle which Loii. don is expectnd to present when it shall be . thronged with foreign visitors.
