THZ INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION,

The interior of the building presented a magni-
ficent appearance yesterday, crowded as it was, at
the fashionable hour, with the largest (belt-Brown)
company that has yet been returned. Every part
of the building appeared •to be full and busy, and
the Eastern platform was especially thronged by an
audience collected to bear Mr. Diikn's concert,
which, happily, on this occasion met with no Oppo-
- from the organ. Whilst we stayed a selection
from Norma was played, and it weaned to obtain
cordial acceptation from the souipaby. The various
jewel cases were also terribly beleaguered by fair
asisilanta—so much so in the case of the Koh-I-Door
case, that the polioe were obliged once or twice
to clear a passage through the nave. Mr. Hancock's
beautiful collection was also almost unapproachable,
so attractive were the diamonds and the sapphires,

visited on its younger members.
IL Ronher, the French Minister of Agriculture,
has arrived in town for a month's sojourn, during
which he will give the building end its enceinte a
careful inspection with *view of Waring • 1•11911
for the information of the Emperor. r t is whispered
further that the visit of IL Rouher has another
object, namely, that of making arrangements for an
early visit from the Emperor himself accompanied
by the Empress.
In the evening Ear(( Gresville and the royal com-
missioners gave a snide at the South Kensington
Museum, to which nearly 4,000 of the elite of the
fashionable world and all the foreign notabilities at
present in town were invited to meet their Royal
Highnesses the Dishes of Cambridge and the Pan-
MS Mary, and her 'Serene Highness the erred
Duchess of Mecklenburg Strelitz. The whole of
Use courts and gallery were brilliantly illuminated
and tastefully decorated with flowers for the recep-
tion of the company. The newcourt, in which all the
rare " loans" w h lob lave recently been got together by
the indefatigable exertions of Mr. Cote,was a powerful
object of attraction. It avoid that the objects of
art temporarily accumulated in this department
reach the almost fabulous aggregate value of two
millions sterling. The Sevres china exhibited is
the rarest end most valuable in the world, and
there are also collected here for the first time all
the specimens that exist in England of the famous
" Heeri•Deux" ware of which there are only fifty-
time pieces in the world. English collectors have
contrived to secure twenty-three, and they were
all inspected yesterday evening by the company at
the soiree. Three military bands attended, abun-
dant refreshments of the most luxurious descrip-
tion were provided, including hot-house grapes at
Ids. a pound, and nothing was left undone to make
the fate the moat successful of many season&
