THE Great Fair - american Display. - The
London Daily News of the 2Sth ult, has the fol-
lowing:
During the two days which closed the past week
both the contractors and the exhibitors had made
great exertions to complete their preparations for
the advent of the Great Industrial Show; and
when the gales closed on Saturday evening the
result was sufficient to all doubts that the
lst May would dawn the finishing touch
given to the building, or the competing products
OF the worlds ingenuity and labor were duly mar
shaled and arranged for the coming trial.
The American display, which Thursday was
very backward, was Saturday all but completed.

mands the main vista, now emblazoned the
American national arms-the eagle, with the motto,
Pluribus ULum,' covering the stripes and
stars, (now numbering thrty-one, the new plan
ct California being represented)
The placing OF the national arms of the States
in position prominent, and the large extent OF
space claimed and allowed, proves that there was
an intention the part OF that country to contri-
butte much more largely to the Exhibition than
they have done, and the vast difference between
the purpose and the act is a matter to be regretted
whatever may have been the cause. Since our
previous visit however, several additions have been
made.
The most prominent of these is winter sleigh

It's silken cushions to be carried across North
American SHOWS, cheered by the merry peals o
silver bells which hang it's dashboard
Some remarkably light and handsome whee
carriages have also been added to this department
of foreign industry since Thursday, all o. them de-
serving attention, and evlncing that in locomotive
machinery, the taste and ingenuity OF the Amer
can builders is quite equal to those of their Eu
Topean competitors.

views of the merchants and manufacturers to ap

to the treasury, however, will not suffice to cove
the expense OF the latter.
