THE FRENCH INDUSTRIAL ExHIBITIoN.--The Paris
correspondent of the New York Evening Post says
that the approaching exhibition in Paris promises
to be more brilliant and successful than anti
cipated by the most sanguine three monts ago. All
the continental nations will be extensively repre-
scnted. In Great Britain, only, does the war SC
exclusively eugross public attention TO interfere
seriously with the preparations of the Paris fair
Austria, which had seven hundred exhibitors at
the London fair, will have eighteen hundred here.
Prussia, which has six hundred exhibitors at Lon
don, will have sixteen hundred here; and even
Switzerland viii have more than five hundred,
vouching for the dignity Of her position as man.
ufacturing State.
The United States has the place Of honor in the
exhibition. On entering the building by the grand
entrance, the yisiter will advance at once into the
American section. Gneat Britain win have po-
sition upon the right, and France upon the left
More than four thousand square feet of space has
been assigned TO the United States, aud on the Esd
ofFebruary last the Central Committee Of Amer.
can Commissioners had been notified Of intention
to exhibit by but about sxty-four Americans. The
prospects were that the department would not be
filed up at the time ofopening Il is to be hoped
that this will not be the case. America should be
well represented In an exhibition like that which is
coming of in Paris, and we trust that her citizens
viii be enterprising enough to send a handsome
show ofgoods to the fair A display Of American
productions, manufactures, and inventions, might
be made which would be second to that Of no other
country.
