PHILADELPHIA, May 18th, 1876.
SUNDAY RESTRICTIONS.
It is the nature of man to err hence, what
can be expected of corporations. The fierce
contest between the members of the commit
tee on the merits of the Sunday openings of
the exhibition buildings ended, as has been
published, in a compromise. always evil
dences of weakness.) The people can visit
the grounds on Sunday, but, they can't go in
the buildings. / rs a truthful thfOnicler
must record this action of the committee as
gross error. If the exhibition is an inter
national affair, concessions should be made
to, not compromises with, the bodies cOrpor-
ate of the international system.
1t is an antagOnistic step placed against
foreign visitors and the foreign and Ameri-
can wOrking-men IN this great city of work

THE TONE OF THE COMMISSION.

Nothing is good enough for these iaundiceC
specimens of the genus homo. The women
God bless them, are more felicitOus in thei
conceptions of effort, and "render unto Cse
sar the things that are C8sar's." The Phila
delphia international exposition of the ma
tien's centennial of 1876 is the wonder of tht
century, and yet some people are dissatis
fed.
One gentleman did not receive that exten
sion of courtesy, another this, or that; man,
complain of the unfinished condition OF tht
grounds, their inability to obtain informa
ton from the attaches of the different build
ings. My experience has been that the his
tory of the world, cannot present spectacle
so astounding in its creation, development
and progression, as the centennial exhibition

THE SENSATIONAL.

latter, like the Italians cases of art, are il
