THE EXHIBITION AT VIENNA IN
1873.

The Emperor OF Austria sanctioned as early a.
the Winter OF 1871 the project OF holding an inter-
national Exhibition at Vienna in 1879, and ap-
pointed an imperial commission to carry out this
project
The members Of the Commission held their In
augural meeting soon after their appointment and
issued their programme. His Imperial Hlgness the
President, in his opening speech, congratulated
the Commission upon the suspicious event which
they were met to bring about Two decades Of
years had elapsed, he said, since Prince Albert to
whom civilization is so much indebted first sug-
gested those peaceabe contests Of nations in arts
and industry which designated by the appela-
ton international exhibitions and which may
not be appropriately compared to the Olympiads
OF the ancents. He rejoced in the recollection
that Austria had taken an honorable part In
the Exhibitions OF London and OF Paris, and that
her productions gained for her the exclamation OF
their august Emperor, II am proud OF my Aus
trial. He pointed out the advantages to be de-
rived from this great social gathering, the stimu-
lus it would give TO the various industries OF tho
monarchy and the eevating character 1t would
have in connecting the nations Of the world, and
making the centre OF Europe the battle field Of .
rivalry in the peace productions OF the earth.
