LETTER from Ohio.
CINCINNATI, Oct. 9th, 1871.

SAID that some people have been compelled
t. walk the streets Eli night for want of a
resting place These crowds have been at
tending what we call " The Great Expo
sition, which is to close tomorrow. In
comparison with the Paris Exposition it is

largest EXP. sitIon ever known in this country,
that in the Crystal Palace ~ New York
City not excepted, we think it entitled to its

il is held, covers four acres and every foot Of
space available is occupied by the exhibition
OF some product Of American skill. At night
when crowded with people and brilliantly
lighted visit to it Will repay a long journey,

five thousand. Almost Every conceivable
thing that Is manufactured or used in mauu-
acturing is displayed one Of its balls, and

For example one hall is devoted t. flowers and
Giants, and no greenhouse in the land can
b iast the odors Of more varieties, or choicer
specimens In tbs hail, at one end, j. a large
restaurant, and though the harmony between
che different uses Of the hall may not be
