THE GREAT EXHIBITION,

Her Majesty and the Royal party at the Palace were, I
again at their usual early hour, visitors at the Exhibi-
tion, and examined during their stay the Indian collec-
tion. Tney also minutely inspected Keith and Co.'s
trophy of silk, which occupies so conspicuous a position
in the nave, and is chiefly of SpiteMeld.' manufacture.
As the time draws nigh for the fall of price from ss. to
Is. the rush of people anxious, while yet they may, to
see the wonders of the Crystal Palace in peace and
comfort, increases every day.
Yesterday 3,7971. 11s. were taken at the doors, be-
sides 1751. 7s. for season tickets, and the whole receipts
were 3,9721. 18s. In the presence of such popularity
one cannot contemplate without some misgivings the
arrangements for the 26th, when the charge of admis-
sion will be redueed to Is. Thousands who had made up
their minds to wait and go in with the ruck, aro now, at
the last moment, changing their minds and wisely re-
solving upon a little extravagance for the sake of a
comparatively quiet inspection of so much grandeur.
When the masses take possession of the interior, it will
be well nigh impossible to see anything, for even at pre-
sent the difficulty is sometimes sufficiently great. They
have been waiting for more than three weeks in a
state of intense expectancy. Monday is an idle day
among them, and they will no doubt pour in with an
impetuosity which tinder the circumstances is not sur-
prising. We would therefore earnestly advise all who
have Os. to spare, and who really wish to see the great
spectacle of the interior well, while everything is still
fresh, and before the novelty has altogether subsided,
boldly to face the expense and to make good use of the
two days which remain before King mob enters into pos-
session. They will never grudge the outlay. The com-
pany alone are well worth it. As for the building and
its contents, the first impressicns of wonder and delight
which they produce are beyond all price. No one ex-
hausts the attractions of the place; and if any person
feels himself " used up" there, it is because the excite-
ment is too much for him—not because it falls short of
his expectations. Yesterday the nave was quite a sight,
from the crowds of people who thronged it. They
could not tear themselves away from that enchanting
promenade, and when, with walking up and down, they
were fairly tired out, they filled every vacant seat,
and at last perched themselves on the edges of the
counters, or on any other space tbat afforded a resting
place. The public will bear in uaind that on a first
visit to the Exhibition little or nothing can the seen
in detail of its marvellous contents. The mind and
the eye have both enough to do in comprehending the
general design and in becoming familiar with the coup
d'ceil of the interior. Where the means permit and a
strong desire is felt to examine the collection studiously,
that preliminary inspection should at least take place
before the masses are admitted. After the 26th there is
every reason to believe that the Crystal Palace will be
the " World's Fair" in earnest. The London and North-
Western Railway Company calculate on bringing
1,600,000 people to see it, and other companies are no
doubt making their arrangements for a proportionate
number. What the influx of foreigners may be it is
impossible to calculate, but they have yet to come, and
we may now look forward to an influx of strangers un-
precedented in the history of the metropolis. In the
midst of this excitement the Royal Commission seem at
a loss what steps to take. They are unwilling to ques-
tionof their great edifice for accommo-
datingmillet; present themselves for admission, and
the
all capability
they therefore claim the first day of Is. prices for cape•
rimental purposes. Barriers are to bo erected at the en-
trances to prevent any sudden rush, but otherwise no
limit has been fixed to the numbers theyoawrethpisreaprarraendgteo.
reoeive,norhas it been deemed advisable to provide for the
claims of visitors from the country. H
ment will answer remains to be seen,but in the meantime
some points are obvious; first, that the interior cannot
comfortably accommodate more than 60,000 people;
secondly, that there are about 30,000 season ticket
holders, many of whom will undo'abtedly exercise their
privilege of entry, the masses notwithstanding; thirdly,
that the

the great majority of the inhabitants of London are
orderwaiti tongfor the reduction of the entrance tee to Is. in

probablyreigoerg and people
block up the
place both againyst fo-
people from the country until their own
cswiosity is gratified. Rules have, we hear, been laid
down for the orderly circulation of visitors in the in-
terior, but in practice the:e will be found extremely
difficult of observance, for people won't be much dis-
posed to move to the left when an object attracts them
on the right—and in sightseeing the privilege of going
wherever ono pleases is almost a necessary condition of
enjoyment. We trust that if the building is found in-
adequate to accommodate the numbers pressing
will
notad-
mission, the claims of visitors from the country il
be lost sight of or sacrificed, and the more especially as
it would be very easy to come to some arrangement with
the railway companies by which justice may be done to
all classes.
Prince Albert visited yesterday the model cottages
erected at his expense within the grounds of the
Knightsbridge Barracks, and intended to illustrate the
best mode of constructing economical and well-adapted

although not actually included in the Exhibition, must
be regarded as a part of it. When the work is com-

We are glad to announce the safe arrival of the Nep-
tune steamer from St. Petersburgh, with 113 packages
on board for the Exhibition. Mr. I‘l'Cracken, the agora,
is actively engaged in landing and forwarding the goods
to Hyde-park, and; we shall soon have an opportunity
of judging what illustrations of their industrial products

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
EPSOM, THURSDAY.
After the " gathering of all nations" on the Derby
cs,av, the Downs yesterday presented the appearance of
ft desert, the muster outside the stand beieg quite as
scanty as it was within; it was, in fact, confined entirely
to roan of business, wink.° wishes Mr. Dorling con-
.sult;ed by getting through the list with a cupidity that
enobled thaw to leave the course shortly after half-past
font-. The :,port, although of little interest, was mode-
rat eiy good. With retort nue to the great day. we ere
glad to be onubled to state that it passed off without
c02,1.-ete;iips of any kind beyond the conventional breaks
down and broken panels. The arrangements on the
Brighton line are spoken cf in the highest terms, and it
certainly is creditable to the secretary and his subordi-
nates, [Lat. some fifteen or sixteen thousand people
shocid have been conveyed to and fro without confusion.
There is a good show of racing on paper for to-
day, end the Oaks, from the extraordinary alteration
in the position of the favourites yesterday, consisting
in the disappearance of Aphrcdite and the elevation of
Breba to the premiership, excites very considerable in-
terest. Breba's recommendations aro entirely private;
