FERNANDO WOOD is an able demagogue,
who never hesitateS to sacrifice the right to
party exigencies; and when he rises in his
seat to oppose Democratic measure it may
fairly be presumed that the measure is not
only very bad but highly inexpedient as well.
He is now vigorously opposing the reductions
in the diplomatic and consular appropriation
bill, contending that any weakening of our
consular service will prove injurious to our
commerce; and there can be no doubt that
his views reflect those of the great CONNER
cial city of New York. One of the Demo-
cratic promises has been the encouragement
of the revival of American commerce, and one
of the first measures they have introduced
has been blow at that commerce-a blow
so deadly that their great northern strong
hold rises in revolt against the measure,

In the Olden Time.

In the old Dutch times the limits of the
park in New York city were known as the
Vlacte or Flat, and was the scene of many
Paas and Pinxter festival. 1t was early
consecrated by martyrdom for the liberties
of the people. On dreary, rainy day in
May, 1851, the infuriated people gathered
to witness the execution of Jacob Leisler,
the last Dutch governor of New York, who,
with his son-in-law, Jacob Milbone, was
hung on an accusation of treason. The
scaffold was erected just about where the
Sun building now stands, upon Leisler's own
grounds and in full view of his country
seat. "What have DONE" said the fearless
patriot, as he stood up to die, "has been but
in the service of my king and queen and
for the Protestant cause, and for the good of
my country" AS the drop fell the populace
rushed forward with shrieks and cries to
snatch some relic of their martyred leader,
and not long after they had the pleasure of
following his remains in state to burial in
Garden street church---the attainder of
treason having been revoked. Leisler and
Milborne were the first victims of oppres-
sion and the pioneers of the men who gave
their lives for freedom century afterward.

Main Exhibition Building.

This building is in the form of a paral-
elogram, extending east and west one
thousand eight hundred and eighty feet in
length, and north and south four hundred
and sixty-four in width.
The larger portion of the structure is one
story in height, and shows the main cornice
upon the outside at forty-five feet above the
ground, the interior height being seventy
feet. At the center Of the longer sides are
projections 416 feet in length, and in the
center of the shorter sides or ends of the
building are projections 216 feet in length.
In these projections, in the center of the
four sides, are located the main entrances,
which are provided with arcades upon the
ground floor, and central facades extending
to the height of ninety feet. The east en-,
trance forms the principal approach for
carriages, visitors being allowed to alight at
the doors OF the building under cover of the
arcade. The south entrance forms the
principal approach for street cars, the
ticket offices being located upon the line of
Elm avenue, with covered ways provided
for entrance into the building itself. The
main portal on the north side communicates
directly with the Art Gallery, and the main
portal on the west side gives the main pas
sageway to the Machinery and Agricultural
Halls.
Upon the corners of the building there

agricultural building. These ravincs are
being sranned by ornamental bridges five
hundred feet long and sixty feet wide, for
convenience of access. Carriage roads, n
railway and foot walks will pass over them
The Horticultural building is designed in
the Moresque style of architecture of the
twelfth century, the chief materials ex-
ternally being iron and glass; supported by
line marble and brick work The building
Is 3o3 feet long, 1913 feet wide and seventy
two feet high to the top of the lantern. The
main floor is occupied by the central con-
servatory, 230 feet by eighty feet, and fifty
live feet high, surmounted by a lantern 17O
feet long, twenty feet wide and fourteen feet
high. Running entirely around this con-
servatory, at a height of twenty feet from
the floor, is gallery five feet wide.
On the north and south sides of this
principal room are four forcing houses for
the propagation of young plants, each of
them 100 feet by thirty feet, and covered by
curved roofs of iron and glass, which, ap-
pearing upon the exterior of the building,
present very fine feature. A vestibule
thirty feet square separates the two forcing
houses on each side, and there are similar
vestibules at the center of the east and west
ends, on either side of which are apart
ments for restaurants, reception rooms,
offices, etc. Ornamental stairways lead from
these vestibules to the internal galleries
OF the conservatory, as we'll as four
external galleries, each 100 feet long
and ten feet wide, which surmount
the roofs of the forcing houses These
external galleries are connected with
grand promenade, formed by the roof, of
the rooms on the lower floor, giving a su-
perficial area of about II 900 square feet.
The east and west entrances to the horti-
cultural building are approached by flights
of blue marble steps, from terraces eighty
feet by twenty feet, in the center of each of
which stands an open kiosque twenty feet
IN diameter. Each entrance is beautifed
by ornamental tile and marble work, and
the angles of the main conservatory are to
be adorned with eight attractive fountains.
The corridors connecting the conservatory
with the surrounding apartments open fine
vistas in every direction, and the beauties
OF the surrounding park, with the river
flowing in front and more than 100 feet be-
meath the building, add to the attractions.

Horticultural Building.

The city of Philadelphia made liberal
grant OF money to provide for the horticul-
tural department of the Exhibition an ex-
tremely ornate and commodious building
which is designed to remain in permanence
as an ornament of Fairmount Park. This
structure is located on a terrace bordering
the Schuylkill river, a short distance north
OF memorial hall, and has commanding
view OF the Schuylkill river valley and the
northwestern portions of Philadelphia.
Romantic ravines running down to the river
are on either side, separating it on the south
from m ?mor rial hall and on the north from
