The Executive Committee on the Industrial Tx
hibition to be held in London has just issued the
following Circular to the Governors and Commit
tees of the several States, which publish for the
benefit of all interested in the forthcoming display
of the industry of all nations.
The appropriation of portion Of our national
marine to convey to Europe the products of Anne
rican industry is noble act, and worthy an en-
lightened age in which the arts and sciences are
fostered by Government. Nothing is better cal
culated to impress other Governments with just no
tions Of the importance of own and our ability
to protect American interests than fair exhibition
Of our works Of art, industry, genius, and skill.
Nothing is more sure preventive Of war than such
an exhibition of the evidences of the blessings OF
peace-nothing better calculated to overcome pre-
JUDGES and tend to the preservation of peace than
such use of our vessels of war; to conquer by love
and make captive the hearts of the people Of other
nations"

disappointed discovering, when late to be remeded

vantages, the Executive Committee is induced to make ano

not be admitted to the exhibition therefore, the Executive

area population would unquestonaby lead very ur-
equal distribution in proportion to the actual demands Of
10 State great Of space such as
would be found entirely unnecessary for the exhibition of its
productions, while that assigned another would be
cumscribed to require perhaps the rejection Of articles Of
value and interest Il is therefore, of the first Importance
that each State furnish early possible estimate Of
the amount of space it viii be able credably fill, recol-
lecng that the character of the articles rather than the guam
tity should be considered.
