THE CENTENNIAL.-The Philadelphia
haquircr takes gloomy view of the pros
poets for the Centennial Exhibition. 1t
says:
Extended inquiry among the great manuiuctur-
ers OF New England demonstrates that their inter-
est in tn Centennial Exposition is of the very
highest character. The common reply to tbs ques-
tIun whether or not they intended 10 become eX-
hibltors to the effect that they had thought
much bout the matter. Ii they mean to think
about it at all. or to that the vastly mpOr tan
manufactures of New England are to have proper
representation at the Cen tennial Fair, it quite
time they were not only thinking but dong
1t wouli appear that the further we get away from
Philadelphia, in pursuit of information regarding
the great exposition, the less satisfactory the situa
ton appears. General Coils declares that the
grossest ignorance prevails in Europe in cOnEec-
ton with the enterprise that manufacturers do not
even know that their contributions e to be ad
mltted free of duty. In New England and in The
West and South, IN fact, at all distant points, the
greatest apathy prevailf. Nobody seems to think
about 1t YET
