DISPOSITION OF SPACE.

The apporlioument Of space and the disposition Of
exhibits IN the Machinery Hall have been made by
Capt. Albert. The floor manager OF the building is
Mr.. Hurst, and the immediate superintendent IS
confded to four nueers, Messis. Pause, VOORHEES,,
Hubbard and Woods who have charge respectively
of the \. w, \. j., :. W., and S. I. portions. Be
sides this-on the soutl-is the pump annex under
the superintendenco of SIR. Cottcr. The floor space
is divided by the avenues aud aislcs and by the
transverse walks a. previously stated. 1Le foreign
portion Of this Hall occupies about OnefOurh Of ITS
area being nearly included in the eastern half Of the
N L. quarter Of the building. The exhibition u
Great Britain and ireland is about Ouetlr1 Of The
whole foreign space France and Germany each
have about OLc-half as much rs Great Britain. Can
ada, Belgium and Sweden are perhaps next, with
about equal areas Spain and Brazil follow; Aus
tra. Denmark, Russia, Italy, Norway, Chill,
and the Argentine Republic are also represented.
The comparative character Of the foreign and
home exhibits cannot be 50 certainly determined
at present as after a while. The previous ex-
hibitions in London, Paris, and Vienna and the
intimate connection and acquaintance Of manu-
facturcrs on the respective sides Of the Atlantic pre-
clude any extreme and long continued superiority IN
any class Of machines. The steam hanmors planers,
LOOMS steam engines, hydraulic presses, and many
other machines bear 80 close resemblance that a
critical acquaintance or glance at the name is
necessary 10 detect the nationality, unless .IsOn

and is designed to shelter the temporary exhibits of

Summer and Fall commencing with strawberries
and green peas and ending with grapes. 1t will be

on the 9th of June, he was wounded when
close to the rebel works. After partial re-
covery he was placed on a court-martial at
Cincinnati, but as soon as able for field service
he rejoined his regiment at Pulaski, and took
a conspicuous part in the battles of Spring
Hill, Franklin, and Nashville. On the last
day of the battle at Nashville, just as the reb-
el line was breaking on the left, Colonel
Barnes was again wounded by shell. This
was the battle for the Army of the Cumber-
land. When nearly recovered from the eff
fects of his wound, he rejoined his command
at Huntsville, Ala, where the regiment was
placed on provost duty. From this place the
regiment was ordered to East Tennessee,
where it was at the fall of Richmond.
Colonel Barnes was mustered ont with his
regiment, after nearly four years service,
bearing with hin the confidence and respect
of all associated with him. The Ninety-sev-
enth is proud of him, and he of the regiment.
Such is the military record of the Republican
candidate. A man that can go through what
he has, and SO well, deserves the hearty sup
port of the people of the State. Let us give
such majority for the State ticket in Octo-
Der, as will effectually settle the Presidential
campaign.

Gov. TuDEN's back-down on the currency
question is likely to injure him in more ways
than one. The large body of persons who are
afraid that if the Democrats are put in power
an attempt will be made to have the Govern
ment assume the Southern debt, are arguing
that Gov. Tilden will be unable to resist such
an effort should it be made. Even the Gin
cinnati Commercial takes that view, saying
Z" Mr.. lid has already given way to
the demands of the party in the West upon a
question of finance on which he was supposed
to be firm as rock. He has exhibited a
weakness that reminds us of the fatal charac-
teristic of James Buchanan. Indebted to the
South for his election more than he can be to
the West, bis sense of obligation for his own
sake and that of the party, and his hopes of a
second term, to which his letter of acceptance
shows he is not averse, will induce him to con-
sent to the passage of any measures that
will strengthen him in that quarter. The
restoration of the Democratic party, in brief,
means the indemnifcation of all who engaged
in rebellion for the property they lost through
their own foolish attempt to destroy the
Union"
