Clearfield Republican. [volume] (Clearfield, Pa.) 1851-1937, 1874-12-16


: each one of the Governments of these
' countries intends that its subjects shall
0 take part in the exhibition. In ten OF
/, the countries named Commissioner
{ have been appointed 70 care for the
| articles to be exhibited and in seven
{ or eight it is known that handsome
!, appropriations have been made to de,
! fray the necessary expenses The cor.
respondent referred to intimates that
Austria will take no interest in the
) American Exhibition, whereas Baron
: Schwarz-Senborn, the Austrian Minis
! ter, few days ago, after looking at
D the grounds aud plans, made statements
r as to the applications now on file in
his country for permits and space that
astonishcd all who heard him.
, The Emperor Of Brazil (who had
signifcd his intention 10 be present at
the exhibition is known to have re-
, commended liberal acpropriation, but
, his Parliament las " yet had an op.
/, portunity to take action on the subject.
Brazil has, however, made an applica-
tion for 64,500 square feet of exhibit
ing space, which is nearly four times
the amount that has been reserved for
her in the preliminary allotment Of
space, and was supposed to be quite as
much as she would care to fill.
There is also unofficial, but trust
worthy, information that extensive pre-.
parations for the display of their indus
tries are being made in Austria Great
Britain, Australia, New Zealand, Tas-
mania, and Others Of the Australasian
Islands, and in Canada. In several
countries, moreovcr-in Brazil, Algiers,
Chill and Mexico-national exhibitions
have been arranged for the coming
year, with the understanding that their
choicest products are TO be transferred
to Philadelphia in 1876. The display
of tho resources Of the entire Cont
nent is sure to be very comprehensive
and thorough.
With regard to many of the Euro
pean and Asiatic Governments, il is to
be observed that their appointment of
commissions has up to this time been
impossible, from the fact that their
legislative bodies have not been in ses-
sion. The Parliament of Great Britain,
for example, will not assemble before
February next, and action upon the
Presidents invitation can scarcely be
taken before that time.
am at loss to discover, in view of
these facts, how any fair minded man
could doubt the success of the inter-
national feature. 1t is not reasonable
to conclude that the Governments that
have favorably accepted the invitation
will not take further action. There is
yet year and a half intervening, and
you know that six months preceding
the Vienna Exhibition no decisive ac-
ton had been taken in this country,
and no money appropriated 1t was
IN this view that the dispatch from
Washington was calculated to make
false impression, and since the date of
that dispatch the Dominion of Canada
has officially applied for space for her
people. Brazil has also made, as /
have already shown, a like application
for the enormous space of 81, coo square
feet. And yet another point 80 far
as Spain is concerned, Senior CASTELAR,
has been appointed Commissioner for
that country
And now let me say in this connec-
ton that II is no uncommon thing TO
see intimations that the celebration and
exhibition could have been great sue
cess had it been merely national. No
more palpable fallacy ever came from
the lips Of any one. What would you
think of judgment of man who
would tell you that one of the States
of the Union could make greater dis
play than ALI For that would be
just as sound as to reason that one
member of the family OF nations, in the
matter of arts, manufactures, and re
sources, could present display equal
to the whole.
On the benefit that viii remit to
our country from the exhibition, the
results to England and France are the
best indication. think we have great
reason to be gratified that II was made
means TO the celebration, for we are
