All Nations Except Oeriany Repre, sented---France Far Ah'ead---Whal America nxhibits. [ Corre.pondene Xcw York Icrakl. ] PAuIS, May 1.--America, while not comparing with Hollatd, Bel giun, France or England in n1ag nitude, nor with China, Japan or Italy in richness ac4 boauty of special objects, still gives an honest, comprehensible and representative exhibition. FBverythiig is gootj -not, not as in other exhibitions, a more advertising contest between pianos, sowing nachines and reap prs, but representative of the genite and progress of the country. While the American sees how much more his country could do he feels that in most things we holti our own with the oldest and richest among the nations. WHAT AMERICA EXHIBITS. You will note, if you scun the catalogue carefully, that in the eight groups into which the ex hibits are divided America holds a prominent place. In works of art we are not strong, but Ohio teaches the masters of the ceramic art what she can dQ in painted porcelain, That shows that the arts are find ing a home in the prairies. We have some engravings from Boston aend New York. I suppose the sewing machine makers could not have everything their own way, and so many of them remain away, and the country which gave the world the sewing machine only sends us one or two. BOOKS. In books and paintings we are strong. Plain people, satisfied wit.h the Lord's Prayer in one languege, will be surprised to see that 4mueri. can industry has ar4pli4ed it into 500 different languages. The author of this work is a Philadel phian, with the partly Russian and partly French name of Ivan C. lMichels. Of books and papers there are forty exhibits. One frm presents American chromos, and it would be interesting to have tho real sentilfonts of a French art jury upon what our friclds in Bosi ton have done in the way of chromo lithography. The Harpers, the Appletons and the Lippincotts and other great houses take part in the show; but we miss other houses who, one world think, had done something worthy pf cgpsideration in a world's exhibition, Ther. is, however, a difference between more pedlers and shopmen and merchants strenuous for the honor of their country. In stationery and ink we hiave fifteen exhibits, nearly half from New York. PHOTOGRAPHS. In photographs Newv York does not do so well, having only three exhibits out of eleven. One misses tile honored name of Brady. We note, however, that the West comes to the fr.ont, althlough a photo graphic collection without the California picture of Yosenite only faintly expresses tbo resomgreps of American art. MIUsIcAL IN8TRIJMENTS. In msical instruments America is strong, although neithler Steinway nor Chickering is present. Perhaps these houses have enough money ; but let us hope there are as good fish in the sea as have ever been caught, especially when we s.ee pianos from Baltimore and organs frony Vermont and violins from Philadelphia. We should like to see a good old-fashioned banjo one that could thrum out "Uncle Ned" and "Dixie's Land" to per - plexed Frenchmen, but it is not here. The banjo and the bones are so thoroughly A merican that their absence is noted. The spread of musical taste, and let us hope also musical cnlture, are so imarked in America that we have pianos and organs frQm Petrlit to Cambr4|lge porp As might be ezpoe6td we coine ont asrrin in deRstre Out of that we know how to bite, but here again we miss what would be of immense value-a collection of surgical and medical achievementq during our war. It is generally bel'eved that during the war wq made great advagces in Inedicine, and especially in surgery. Now, when all of the great nations of Europe, excepting France, prepare to cut each other's throats, we might show what we did to heal the wounds of our own war. Still, it naay help emigration to throw out the impression that in America the science of medicine and public relief means alone taking care of the teeth. SCANT EXHIBITS. In mathematical and philosophi-t cal instruments we show the worl4 some iicroscopes and spectacles. In maps we are strong. We have dQno good things in furniture, but they are r}ot soon in this 1ehibition. A vashstaud, some chairs, a glase castor and a billiard table sum up all we can show the French. I aIq glad to see Virginia in tllis group, if she only sends a washstand. 14 glass and decorations we do little or nothing, and in pottery less than nothing. With clays and colorq enough to revolutionize the taste of the world, we might show a profound and an original advance in the cerampic arts. But we havQ only two oxbibits, and these more in the way of imitatione of Pariat statuary. We have a modest dis play of carpets, two exhibits-one from Yonkers, the other from Mas sachusetts-and yet all the world knows we make fine carpetg. WQ have only one display of cutlery, which shows that we have not found all the uses for our iron anc coal. In gold and silver we might do better, especially an we have passed the Silver Bill and Mr. Sherman proposes to redeem all the greenbacks in gold, But we fail in this department. There are some gold pens, son;e fligree work and a gQod collection of Til any'i jewelry, The American Watch lornpany shows what we can dq with watches, but thiq is a n}eagre display considering how we have wrested the watch indnstry fron our Swiss frien4s and made the American watc. one of the Eq ropean articles of commerce. Hero was a chance for our protectionist friends, but with characteristic spllshness they missed their chanc, GAS AND COAL. In heat and light we are strong, and we show the uses we make of gas and coal. ThesQ Egropea>aq have not quite ma4e up their painde as to whether gas is a poison or not, and so they have much tq learn. in stoves, gas Axtures, lamps and furnaces we have eleven 4., 9f ft94n fron New York. MISCELLANEQUS AUTIOLES. In this group we note the Dise trict of Columbia. I am afraid our foreign friends will think that our perfumery is all made in Tqlqdo-4 that tcjwn sending the only 4.meri.. can contribution to that fragrant group. ,We do notlhing worth men.e tioning in leathMr and toys, but since Brazil is not here, as she wais in Vienna and Philadelphia, with her birds and flowers in featherd we are glad to see a sample Qf what < we can 4o in the form of decora-r, tion all tie way fron4 St. Augustine, 1ilorida.. FAnx Toos.-Farml tools are seldoii worn out, but more often t become brittle by exposure, and thus break or become rickety, Ploughs, cultivators, horse rslkes, etc., are simply varnished when' sold, and a few months of use reinoveos this.
