The managers Of the French Exposi.
ton Of 1873 have notified the United
States government that, II this country
desires to be represented, 1t must take
immediate steps to accept and appropri.
ate the space assigned to II. There must
be some one at Paris within two months
authorized to act for the American gov.
eminent, or the prospect Of an American
exhibit at the Worlds Fair Of 1878 will
be very slender. This is one more Of
the difficulties 10 be met as a consequence
Of tho failure Of Congress last session to
perform the duties expected Of It. The
question Ia, as to the constitutional right
Of the President to take any steps in the
matter without the authority Of a spe.
cial enactment Of Congress. The Cabinet
has the matter under advisement. Sec.
rotary Evarts is in favor Of the appoint.
ment OF a Commission, the members Of
which shall servewith the understanding
that they shall have no compensation
unless Congress shall ratiiy their ap.
pointment. There seems 10 be no con.
stitutional obstacle to this, and mean.
while the President can accept the invi.
tstion Of the French government and re.
turn assurances Of our thanks and good
will. 50 important a matter as this
surely will not be neglected,
