AMERICANS AT THE WORLDS FAIG.-The
London correspondent Of the New York Adver-
tiser says
While our agents have been treated with
every civility, they have been greatly disappointed
by the expense and the severity Of the examina-
ton Of our goods. SO FIR from the goods be-
ing admitted to their counters without cost, the
expenses of forwardnl, of transportation. OF
labor, Of bonding and of inspection, have been
very great. FIVE sllillings sterling being charged
for the latter item alone upon each package.
Many Of our more beautiful goods are greatly
injured An exquisite model of the New York
Exchange. which WAS greatly admired before it
vas packed wass broken to fragment on the PMS
SAGE. Some articles were injudiciously sent, NJ
J think. As samples of binding, Moore's and
Byron's works were sent, articles absolutely
contraband, since. in the language here, the edi-
tons were prated. Although at first positively
refused to pass. yet upon the ground that they
were sent rs samples of binding alone, and with
the cheerful assent of Mr. John Murray, they
were admitted This, it must be allowed, was
generous.
II has been feared by Americans here that the
articles contributed by our citizens would not
do us justice ma n nation. One cannot vet tell
what the comparative merit Of our country will
be, side by side, in this strife of the peaceful
arts, with the old nations of the earth. But I
feel sure that We shall not fall far behind. In
many specimens Of what will come under the
head Of raw MATERIAL have seen abundant
evidence 10 day that our show will be rich
