THE GREAT EXHIBITION.

ller Majesty and the Royal party at the Palace were,
again at their usual early hour, visitors at the Exhibi-
tion, and examined during their stay the Indian collec-
tion. They also minutely inspected Keith and Co.'s
trophy of silk, which occupies so conspicuous a position
in the nave, and is chiefly of Spitalfield,' 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 3,797/. I Is. were taken at the doors, be-
sides 1751. 7s. for season tickets, and the whole receipts
were 3,972/. les. 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 reduced to is. Thousands who had made up
their minds to wait and go in with the ruck, are 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 ao 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
:tate of intense expectancy. Monday is an idle day
among them, and they will no doubt pour in with an
impetuosity which under the circumstances is not sur-
prising. We would therefore earnestly advise all who
have ss. to spare, and who really wish to see the great
spectacle of the interior well, while everything is still
Iresh, 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 impressions of wonder and delight
which they produce are beyond all price. No one ex-
hausts the attractions of the place; and if any person
teels 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 that afforded a resting
place. The public will bear in mind that on a first
visit to the Exhibition little or nothing can be 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 t
rmi he
an coup
d'cril of the interior. Where the means pet d 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-
tion the capability of their great edifice for accommo-
dating all who maypresent themselvesfor admission, and
they therefore claim the first day of is. prices for expe-
rimental purposes. Barriers are to be erected at theen-
trances to prevent any sudden rush, but otherwise no
limit has been fixed to the numbers they are prepared to
receive, nor has it been deemed advisable to provide for tho
claims of visitors from the country. How s
th.l
meantime
will answer remains to be seen, but in the
some points are obvious; first, that the interior cannot

wherever one pleases is almost a necessary conditiodn of
enjoyment. We trust thet if the building is tou
in-

mission, the claims of visitors from the country will not
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.

erected at his expense within the grounds of the

best mode of constructing economical arid well-adapted
