The second day Of the Exposition
Buildings display passed Off well and
satisfactorily. The exhibitors were more
than busy in making their stalls and
berths and spaces look we'll. About one
hundred tons of articles were put within
the building up 70 six o'clock last night.
Risk & johnson put into the Power Hall
a fine engine Of one hundred and twenty
horse power. That hall is assuming a
splendid appearance, and viii be a
model of mechanical neatness and eff
cheney in a few days. The Ledger's
printing machine was at work yester-
day, and knocked off" sheets by the
score last night.
The Pamela Oil Company exhibit the
processes Through which e~otton-seed
is put in its various stages from the
gin till it becomes clear oil; all
the products are exhibited; the seed
shelled with the hulls and the cotton
that comes off them, the seed cracked,
the seed ground, the seed compressed
into cake. the oil that is pressed out,
both in its crude and refined shapes.
The wax made from il is there. All
these products of cotton-seed, IN their
/ neatly put up condition at the show,
form a subject OF pleasing study 70
those who love to contemplate the
sources Of our wealth. Several addi-
/ tions were made TO the agricultural i'm
plement department. A Memphis ge-
MUS, J.. II. Teal, exhibits a working
model of his pistOn-packing governor
engine, for which he got a patent last
May. It is a great little thing. Vegeli
put in a case Of ladies' and gentlemen's
boots and shoes that left an impression
on every one that bebeld it. The gro
Gerry men and the drug men, as well a
the harness men, did fine yesterday in
displaying their energies and their
wares. Several hundred musical in
struments and some pianos were put in
yesterday. The furniture makers and
the sewing-maehine gentlemen also
busted themselves to great advantage.
Speaking Of sewing-maehines reminds
one Of COOper's three-rooster power n
CINE. He had that infant machine
putting away like fury last right. He
controlled the piston so deity that il
made three hundred strokes per minute.
A sewing-machine was run by il
for half an hour with the most
satisfactory results. 1t is evident
that small machines-engines-Of this
kind are destined to come into use in
households even Of the smallest dimen-
siOns. They can be utilized for propel-
ling fans, rocking cradles, running sew-
~ing-machines, washing, cutting kind
ling-woOd and various other small
things that are so annoying TO those
who hate muscular exertion. Several
cases OF very fine chinawaTe are on ex-
hibitiOn-put in yesterday. The art
gallery was also enriched by a few con-
tributions of merit and some portraits.
The fountain in the center of the hall
will have water to-day. The water
works gave out a supply yesterday eve
ming which has effected, we believe, by
makinga connection with Davis's water
works on the bluff. Last night the
suilding looked very pretty and was
by a great number of visitors.

ELEGANT HARNESS, COLLARS, ETC.
Among the most attractive objects in
he building is the fine display of collars
ly Hudnall & Co. The display COM
all sorts of collars, for drays,
wagons, blowing, buggy and carriage,
md they are of all sizes. Some
made from solid sole leather, and
calculated to last forever in any climate,
thers are made of calf, Others of patent
and some of morocco. The va
iety of material used is only equalled by {
he variety Of styles into which the ma
erial is wrought. Some of these collars :
large enough TO embrace the neck {
d camel, while others are small enough {
o go round the throat Of a goat. The
lay out - is certainly a fine one, show !
lg in a most satisfactory manne all :
hat is done in the production of collars. I
his collar-making is now become a {
Decial business. 1t is engaged in eX- +
lusively by firms who make no other I
art of the gear Of a horse or a mule. +
t is like the boot and shoe business
lOst firms make vast fortunes on it. n
Tence the display that can be made by I
