Some ,nil friends warned me before starting from
Liverpool hot 10 run the Ii>k OF geoopizng at the
foot o. The sea ellis OF The Bay of Fundy lest stray
cannon shot IRON one OF the contendng squadrons
should put an abrupt termination to my geological
lsbors. By that time, however, had begun to have
faith in tie peaceful Issues OF British and American
negotiate MS, and was not easily alarmed. Now, ut
Last, come again, and hear sounds but those OF
harmony and peace. We, at least, who are engaged
IN tins Industrial Exhib ton, may regard ourselves
a. memlers OF great peace association, though few
OF us may indulge any sansulne hopes OF the futnra
cessation OF wars Would that we could follow the
noble example set by the gIea est people OF anti
guilty WHO gave sale pass 10 all who attended the
Olympic games and more especially 70 the ENJOYS
or commissioners sent to represent each State. War
was not allowed u Interfere with the celebration Of
those festivals, and the truce lasted for month.
lave ofen wondered, when reading the history of
those olden times, that the Olympic games should
have endured for eleven cetur and that SO many
OF the leading taesmen and lawglvers Of Greece
should have attached such importance to then to
award Tecu lar honors 10 those citizens who carried
oil the prizes. But philosophical historian OF our
times Mr. Grote, has solved this problem, and shown
that there was d,eIer meaning in these multitude
nous gatherings than appeared to q cnrsOry OBJ
server II WAS not for the encouragement VI athletic
exercises or chariot racing that they promoted
these festivals. The games embraced many Il
the objects Il our modern exhibitions. We hear
Of prlzes awarded to the inventors OF new
musical instruments. We are told Of the re-
citation OF new musical compositions, as well
this th re much OF the saue business transacted
as is cslied here in W all street or on Change in
La dor. There was much buying and selling, aud
commercial transactions, and. advertising at tim
when tbeIeWeIe no hewspai ers, and all this between
the citizens Ct States as far distant from each other
II We reckon by tine, before the days Of steamboat
ard railways, as are row Europe and America. Bu
neither the Amusement and instruction afforded by
tLese meetings, nor even their commercial bearing
were the sole or even tie principal ends achieved By
such periodical gatherings Greece was divided, hks
the United States, into multitude Of Independent
c. mmonW ealtbs and cities each jealous Of her Stat
Ri hts, each ayerse to ceut riiZaton, but not pre-
vented like the members of your confederation, from
warning one with another 1t was the aim, says
GrOe Of the leading politicians Of Greece, to give to
tie people OF States politically discovered opportu-
mites Of exchanging courteses and hospitalites, Of
G. mlaIine The progress they had made IN knowledge
and civilization ana. above ali, Of cherishing senti-
ment OF Pau.Helenc unity Gentlemen, your chair
man. in proposing the last toast has eulOgised the IL
ustrious Prince HON he has styled the originator Of
the first international exhibition that Of London, in
1851, and you have responded to the toast with an
enthusiasm most grateful to the feelings OF every
Englishman here present. The London exhibition
had more cosmopolitan aim than that of cOmbinjn q
together The States OF one great confederacy, ort
nations, politically independent yet speaking inee
attempt to establish an exhibition in which natA "
differing in language, religious creeds and p0litl
institutions should cooperate in friendly rivalry
arena where all should compete for distinction ins
and in the fine arts, and IN their application to man
featuring INDUSTRY. If series Of industrial exhibi-
tions on such cosmopolitan plan can be SO arranged
as not to interfere one with another let W. hope that
they may acquire perpetuy and last not for eleven,
but for eleven times eleven centuries II
