I VI Ttt fp rtsa No. 1,397.] [No. 8, EXHIBITION EXPRESS.] THE EXHIBITION EXPRESS, FOR THE WEEK ENDING SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 15. --•-- PROGRESS OF THE EXHIBITION. Another hwy week has been . possed by the rulers of the (:Lae Palace. The pniwipal work accom plished within the building during the last six days has been the arrangement of the interior fittings, &signed to aid the regulations imposed on those exhibitors and all others who are to admitted pee- witiusly to the opening of the Exhibition. In tbu eastern division of the building. the hnardinga by which the various fon ign eountnes are to kende:mod and separated from ereli other are all set up. In the western half of time structure, considerable progress has Owen made in the tome work, and the various avenues and posh - ors throughout the building are alnutly marked down upon the floor. 'the position. which We to be occupied by Engl►sh and colonial products, and by those of foreign countrit s, on with some trilling exteptions, mapped out with the great. st tummy. A large portion of the north-western division or the building will be occupied by mail • vy. Ilere also on• the cone partnit tits for (*Mon, bother, furniture, and uphol stery, the• slurs• allowed for which is 1:011Sidt sable. In the southAvestern division, woollen manufactures will Ile , upy a large sluts. Agricultural implements, hardware, linen po n ds, and raw roduce of a metallic nature will displayed in the atone same quarter. In the galleries will be arranged the lighter descriptions of fancy wares of all kinds,—producf in ghee, generally, silk, vel vet, lace, and tall kinds of haberdashery. Models of naval arehitecture, specimens of food, and of• animal and vegetable raw poolucc, have platves assigned to them also in the galleries. Colonial productions are to be arranged in a compartment which runs quite through the building front north to south, and bounds the transept on the west. Its frontage on the cen tral passage is over Joao feet. Much difficulty has been experienced in presiding the retwired space in several of the sections. In the spate devoted to agri cultural machinery and implements the executive have found it necessary to culiwee the utmost economy of room, in order to provide' aceomodat . for the whole of the articles which are to he contributed. . . Frames will be provided, on which light implements tine to be arranged, one uhove thy other—and duplicates of the machines will not be received. The shafts of implements worked by horses will be detached. 7•he working capabilities of all agricultural ma chinery contributed, will be tried, and in all cases where efficiency and durability are found to hare been neglected, for the purpose of attaining mere elegance and lightnew, of Mimi and material, njection will ensue. printing of the season tickets has been commenced, and it is expected trait they will be ready fur issue on Monday week. In order to giant against forgery, the design by which they are embellish, d is of a eomplicuted nature, and each plrehuser will be itspired to write his name on the of his ticket, and at the saint time in a hook, which will be kept at the entraner-door allotted to the class of visitors a ho will avail themselves of this mode of admission. Several heuvy mscs have been received during the week, containing elliwignments of front Ba varia, Prussia, nod France. Scarce any of the tone cumbrous mc) sry him been forwarded at present. Contributors to this deportment of the Exhibition must necessarily be aware of the time and labour which will be required to complete the proper disposition of their ruiners in the positions marked out for them, and it is hoped that they arc sutficii.ntl3 impressed with the urgent necessity which exists for their early appearance in die building. On Tuesday lust the Council of Appeal met for the last time, to dispose of the appeals remaining on their paper, and to refer further upplieations to theExecu live Committee. 'Oils mulled, it is antieiputed, vrill sus able again to appoint reprowntutives of the va rious London industries at the various juries by whom the min* are to be awanksl. How these juries a ill be constituted is yet a vexed and unde cided question. It bus been formally declared that local committees will have the power of appointing delegates to represent their accetal branches of in duster ; but how this worse will he shaped finally, in ocher to give a fair preponderance of representa tion to important ChAnets, is. we believe, a point which is still under consideration. It is obvious that Manchester should be repre sented by more jury-votes than a mere manufacturing village; and it undoubtedly is a difficult matter to decide the relative numbers to lie sent to the great central body, but. inasmuch as it is declared that juries will make their reports previous to the open ing of the building on the Ist of May next, the ur gency of deriding this most important part of the great sehemeis obvious. The Renal Agricultural Society, acting in concert with the }Loyal COIIIIIIIsNiOIICM. have issued a notice to the effect that no agricultural implements can be received after the r.teth dice of March; and that on the first day . of April they will proceed to adjudicate be tween real applicants fur admission to the Exhibi tion. The gnat effort which has to be made, in order to carry out the pledge that the building will be opened to the public on the Ist of May, is to get all the heavy raachinery uu the ground as soon as passible, so that all the flooring (*kWh must remain to an unfinished state till .the heavy goods are in their proper plums) may be finally laid without delay. The importune of attending strictly to the rules laid down by the authorities cannot be too strongly impressed upon exhibitors. The materials for the construction of the engine house arc already on the ground, so that the build ing can be proceeded with immediately. It will stand upon the ninth-western side of the Glass Falao—and thence give steam (to the extent of one hundred horse power) to the models included in the great exhibition. Its steam will print off copies of a newspaper, work all kinds of looms, and in fact, do more at once than steam from any single boiler has ever accomplished. A meeting of the Manchester local committee was held yestenlay (Friday) in the Manchester Town ball, to consider the pimprietv of applying for an extension of time, Mr. fhonuus'Earley, president of the Manchester Chamber of Commerce, occupying the chair. A number of gentlemen on the various Ruh-committees expressed their conviction that great numbers of exhibitors would be put to much inconveni e nce, in order to get the ar ticle* which they wished to exhibit ready b y the day which the RovatCommissioners hadfixedasthe latest time at which they . could be admitted. They be lieved if an extension of time were not granted, many parties would be compelled to withdraw their appllcations for spate, and thus the object of the Exhibition would be in a great measure defeated. Mr. Henhouse then mused—" That this meeting re quisite the Executive Committee to extend the period for the reception of article's in each department, at the building, to the Ist of April next, the local com mittee giving a pledge that the whole of the articles shall be delivered there on or before that day, and that our secretary be instructed to confer per,onally with the Executive Committee upon the subject of this resolution." Mr. Fairbuira, C.E., having se conded the resolution, it was carried unanimously ; Manchester is not the only applicant for .• more time. The flowing are the more important facts of the week from abroad : Oar Paris correspondent says: " You may remember that in their sitting of the 4th instant, the Central Jury appointed to select the objects of French contribution discussed a demand from the Lyons manufacturers that the articles sent by retail dealers should be excluded, and decided that such articles should be admitted, but under the condition of the name of the original manufacturer being attached, as well as the name of the contributor. Well. it stems the Lyons people are greatly dissatisfied with this arrangement, and the chamber of commerce of Lyons, as we learn to-dae, immediately declared thin it would have nothilig to do with the Exhibition. A Lyons journal adds that the greater part of the manufacturers there have given up the intention of exhibiting in London." _ _ . The Mourfinfr contains a decree of the Minister of commerce, the tint article of which reaervca to the French embassy in London all questions of an inSer national kind respecting the London Exhibition. The second article creates a commissariat of the French government in London, consisting of a com minsary-general,! M. Sallandrouse de Lamornaix, of an active and of an administrative service. The first is to attend to the transport of objects, &c., and the second to their reception and classification. M. Stein. Councillor of the Royal Board of Engi neers, has been appointed by the Prussian govern ment as principal commissioner to superintend the delivery and arrangement of the goods which will he sent by the different :stated belonging to the Zollve rein for the Exhibition of Industry. M. Stein is accompanied by M. Nuollens, jun., acting decretary, and M. Gneehlin, engineer. Already considerable transports of articles for the exhibition have arrived from different states of the Zollvcrein, which comprise a population of nearly 30 millions of inhabitants. The Sardinian government have granted to the exhibitors for the approaching exposition the royal war steamer Governolo, commanded he Captain Count di Fermium, for the conveyance of file objects of Sardinian produce and industry to be exhibited. The Governolo sailed from Genoa on the fith lust. ArrAnxrus TO BE EXHIBITED. SELT-ItEGINTEIVING INSTUUNIENTS.

It was attended by up wards c1`;400 persons, each more or Ic-a interested in the Great Exhibition. The French government had thmwn open one of the amphithertres of the conservatory known u Conservamire des Art:, et Mkier.," and M. Schneider, Minister of Commerce. had deputed N. Sallandnume, the Government Commissioner in London, in order to give all inbormation seen explanati ~,, • which might lx• required at his hands, while the several branches of industry were re presented by delegates. M. Mathias, a member of the committee, having read at the meeting the latest instructions published by the Minister of Commerce, hi. Jardinc:, another member, explained the object of the meeting of the Union, which he said, having been consti , toted some five months ago, had met on starting with cold ' ne,s and vaccillation. At this very time, though the l was finally and successfully constituted, doubts existed still, and many parties, from hesitation or ignorance, shrank from joining, and they had met for the purpose of dispelling those doubts and explaining away all objections that might be raised. A desultory debate ensued, which. bearing upon the several decisions And proceediugs which have appeared in our columns for the last six months, was summed up by M. Sallandmuze. Raving recurred to the early ins‘true- Lions issued by the Royal Commission, hr expatiated upon the several eoncessions in behalf of foreign exhibitors granted by the commission, anxious to meet the wishes of the French government and their commissioner. This;:an nounrement having been received with general satisfaction, M. Sallandrouze proceeded to answer all the questions put to him with slut tact and practical knowledse w filch he ha. derived from a long experience. On M. Sallandrouxe con cluding, M. Pagnerre, our of the delegates, proposed that the meeting should express its gratitude for what had been already done by that gentleman, and express their full con fidence in his ability to support the interests of the French exhibitors. The assembly having given their assent by three rounds of applause, adjourned to Thursday next, to devise upon final measures to be adopted previous to Feb. 20. MEMORANDUM ON; RE-OPENING TILE QUESTION OF SPACE. It has been reported to the executive committee that in .11110 I:a:WS, whilst the claims of applicants Mr spare were under examination by local committees or by some of the metropolitan sectional committees, the vouchers for space were lost or mislaid, and consequently have not yet reached the executive committee. Requests have likewise been pre ferred to continue to receive further vouchers fur space in eases where the original amounts of space were not fully allotted when the souclient were sent iu ; and further re quests have been made by exhibitors to be allowed to ex change portions of the space allotted to them with other partiz; and exhibitors having space allotted in two classes have made application to change the relative quantities in each class. The executive committee regret that at this late period it is impossible to entertain any questions which tend to re- o pen the question of space. It is necessary to remind exhibitors that, strictly speaking, the 111th lit De cember was the lust day fixed by her Majesty's commis sioners for receiving vouchers of space from Meal commit ' tees, and that the places fur each of the 30 classes have aettally been Bid in •he building. To re-open the question at the present time would be tantamount to disturbing the boundaries of the 30 classes, and might jeopardise the open ing of the exhibition. m asv-- At the same time, the executive committee will clo their utmost to meet those cases where, in consequence of the voucher not having reached the executive committee, an applicant for space may have been excluded from no fault of his own. Any application properly certified by the secretary of the local committee as having been made and duly sent by him to the executive committee before 31$ October will be examined on its merits, and if found to be proper will be admitted conditionally on space being . avail able when the actual arrangement of the articles is in pro ress.—By order of the Executive Committee, M.

Several specimens, more or les-ornamental, of the syphon filters recently invented by Mr. Bird, of Birminigham, will have places in the Exhibition. The action of all filters is nearly the mime. The object to b• attained is to :distract the small particles of matter which are mechanically sus pended in water, and this is done by rousing the water to pass through strainers of different materials, of various degrees of fineness. The action is alto gether mechanical whether the materials employed 44 strainers be sand, powdered charcoal, or, as in the case of Mr. Bird's filter, pulverised quartz. They are generally arranged in layers of varying degrees of coarseness, from the size of small gravel to that of the finest sand. If the finer layers he ton thin, the water will not be sufficiently clarified; if too thick, the action of the filter will be slow. '1 he rapidity of action, however, depends in a great mea sure rat the pressure of water. la filters of the ordinary construction the pressure is nut greater than • few inches, and it is continually diminishing us the water flows through. The peculiar advantages of Mr. Bird's filter are its portability, and the attainment of almost any pressure of water. In shape it is like an elongated bell, being only ' four Mille, in diameter and seven inches high. Into the top there is inserted a flexible metal tube, to which a stop rock is fixed, near the end. This vessel is filled with the filtering material, and w lien required to be used must be plated inverted in the water to be purified, with the tube hanging down on the outside. When the air is withdrawn front the pipe the water flows down it by syphonie action, and is forced to rise through the body of the filter. The pressure will be proportioned to the length of the pipe below the level of the filter, and Wright, with little incon venience, be increased to the amount of fifteen pounds to the square inch, by placing the ceased in a cistern or bucket near the app of the house. At a much less pressure than this, however, it will purify one hundred gallons of water a day. When we saw it in action, very muddy water was rendered brilliantly clear, and flowed in a small stream, with a pressure of not more than a Not. • -•- The science of meteorology lets derived immense advantages from the invention of self-registering instru ments, by means of a hich the variations that occur during every moment of the day and night may be correctly retries tend. without the nos-teisity of having attendants constantly watching.
