THE HERALD AND the VIENNA EXPOSITION.
[From tho Evening Man, May 81

The great Vienna Fair was yesterday formally
opened II any one doubts the fact let HIM read
II he can-the immense mass Of dispatches, In
English and German, which describe the opening
cercmoaies, In the HERALD to-day. This recklessly
extravagant Journal whose enterprise takes the
most eccentric directions sometimes, is nearly
filed with the dispatches OF Young and Yates in
English and OF Auerbach and Muhlbach in German.
Such newspaper was never printed before and
may not be again-at least we don't see why even
the HERALD should continue to give such volume
OF dispatches in regard to any exhibition what
ever.
It is evident, however. that the correspondents
had hard work TO NIL out the space their descrip-
lions were to occupy. There was really not much
to describe. The Exhibition is formally open, but
1t is In chaotic state, and months must eapse be-
fore Its full gories will be revealed and before Its
myriad attractions will be 80 arranged that visit
ors can make profitable study thereof What it is
to be remains to be seen, and until the LIST OF June
at least intelligent criticism will reserve its
verdict N

GREAT ENTERPRISE. -
The extraordinary enterprise OF the HERALD In
procuring, at great expense, some seven columns
Of telegraphic correspondence from Vienna for this
days paper makes an era In journalism. 1t IL the
mOSt eAJenblVc buu SUCCESSFUL enterprise o. the
kind ever attempted by any newspaper, and the
costly achievements u supplemented by the novelty
OF translating the whole narrative into German,
and 80 furnishing to-day sheet eagerly read both
by Americans and Germans. The HERALD lays
leaffrom Fatherland before the immense German
population Of this part OF the world.
From the same.]
It's fortunate thing for the American readers
OF the HERALD that their parents were rich enough
TO provide them with German tutors while they
were children. With what mingled emotions they
must have gazed upon the columns Of that.jsurnal
this morning, renewing the dead but unforQott4n
days when they puckered their little mouths over
lcn haoe this and Ic habe that until the study Of
German seemed to them nothing but conspiracy

from the Newark journal, May IL
The HERALD does nothing by halves. 1t proposes
to .do" the Vienna Exposition, which opens to-
day, 10 q manner most novel and lavishly expen-
sive. It has secured as special correspondents
Edmund Yates. who win write from the English
standpoint John Russell Young, from an American,
and Berthod Auerbach and Louise Muhlbach, from
German. The stories OF the two latter are to be
printed in German nrst and the next day trans.
lated into English All the reports are to be trans
mtted BY cable, This win assuredly as the HERALD
well remarks to-day, '1llustrate, In striking
manner, the perfection to which Journalism can be
eventually brought under the enterprise Of the
American press and with the aid OF the electric
telegraph.Y Such really marvellous enterprise as
this astonishes even American newspapers and
newspaper readers, ana as for the novelty and
originality Of the idea nothing need be said. t
