part of ready made prescription for such
exhibition was made by Comfort 4; Co., of Phil
adelphia. There were also full length wax
figures Of ladies', to display mourning dresses
in what seemed to be the modiste's department
of sorrow, and further along section of miti-

lieye the sombre hues Of woe. Having seen

People who go into the Centennial in the
morning, of course don't want to come out for
dinner, and be compelled to pay again for en-
trance. but desire to get their lunch Oh the
grounds. The propretors of the inside resau-
rants are disposed to take advantage Of this,
and put on exorbitant prices. At the large
places, person cannot get even a slice OF roast
beef and two or three kinds of vegetables with
out being charged dollar Or more. But there
are places where a sandwich and cup Of tea
or coffee can be had at very reasonable rates.
One of these is in the southern end of Machinery
Hall. There are many kindred eXactions inside
the grounds, which are being unwisely practced
by those who have bought privileges, and who
are thereby killing the goose that lays the gold
Ell eggs. One accommodation is abundant and
cheap, and that is the conveyance on street
cars. They run rapidly, regularly, and furnish
good and cheap accommodation.

There is of course great falling off to-day
from the exciting crowd at the opening, al
though the attendance IS still very good. The
day has been clear, with Il cool northwest wind,
making the tour of the grounds very comforta-
ble Yesterday the ravenous crowd cleaned
out all the eating houses and restaurants, and
clamored ior more. | know gentleman, a
member OF the L. 3. Commission, who with his
vile were compelled TO make dinner on pint
of peanuts and two glasses of lager beer, and |
hear that the President and his friends did not
fare much better. 1t is a remarkable fact that
with all the immense crowd not an arrest was
made.
This morning ! visited the Government build
ing, where the various departments of the gen.
eral government make their exhibits. This is
the fullest and most complete Of anything on
the grounds. Here is model post-ofiice, exhi-
biting all the workings of this important branch,
the reception, assortment, carriage and delivery
OF mails, printing of stamps, envelopes, &c.
The Navy department has very full and inter-
esting exhibit, showing the manner ofconstruct-
ing, arming, victuaing, propeling and fighting
of the navy, portraits of famous officers, coils of
corda2e, huge guns, monitor turrets, and ugly
torpedoes. The Arctic department, showing
maps OF discoveries, relics, &c. is yerv interest
ing. Here is Halls log book, kept in the PoIaris
expedition, also the suit Of skins worn by DR..
Kane. his rifle. and other personal relics, with
white bear and walrus skins. An experienced
naval officer was once aSEed what u,,c tho ,,ost
trying time of a naval battle. He replied that
1t was the few hushed moments when the men
stood prepared at their guns, and the decks
were sprinkled with sand to drink the blood as
yet unshed. With some such feeling / looked
upon the terrible array of surgeons instruments
that glittercd in their cases-the torniquets to
compress torn arteries, the sharp saws and gilt
tering amputatng knives, aud all the terrible
paraphernala of the profession. They are use
full when the shot tear through the ship, send
ing the deadly splinters around, when shells
burst, musket and pistol bullets patter like hail,
and swords ceave--but dreadful to look upon
in cool blood.
The War Department shows its cannon and
small arms, with method of making cartridges,
already described. The terrible Calling guns,
that throw rifle bullets by the peck, and can
NOW down regiments at time, were here.
There is shown the stump of an oak tree that

1t is now thought that the Centennial
Exhibition will not pay. While it has
been open it has cost IS, 800, 900; caterers
etc, have paid 100000 for privileges To
earn IS, O0o, 900, even in gross. the receipts
must average more than $50 900 for every
one Of the one hundred and fifty-nine days
Of the show. This would require a daily
attendance of 100, 900 paying visitors.
The investigation of the government
