For eslght and HIndslght.

II the America pe0ple took sufficient time to
think, they would form Some conclusions about
their own eountry analogous to its greatness
aud quietng 10 their fears. A nation, like in-
dividuais, may profit by retrospect Of the
wonderful past. Most dangers arprehended
would be robbed Of their sting II memory we're
allowed to recall those m t and vanquished.
Mt year az" we wsre apparently ind iffer-
out to the project Of an Tnterna tional Exhibi-
tim. The managers frequently chided the
SHte OH ;ials on this apathy, and feared far
success Of the movement. Until few weeks
bIfore the opening, perSnns visiting the Cen
tennal grouAls expressed Astouishmsnt thai
50 gigantic \ scheme awOke SO little interest
throughout the country. CroAkers prophesied
disgrace, and the hard times, like black rail-
hung over us, as climax to q ur difficulties.
Presently the scene changes. All our for-
wArding interests -railrnad, steamboat, cana Il
were fully taxed to furnish transit for the
wonderful variety Of wares to be exhibited.
Sill later, our people far and near employed
these facilities for visit to the great show
Philadslphia and New York never before had
such an inaux of travellers.
We shall passibly learn by the next Centen
niai that our countrymen never hurrAh before
II iS full time, and then ali together.
The Ceutsn malls thing Of the past, and an
nprecedented success throughout. The build
ings. Of pleasing variety and nice adaptation
" the need. have been sold. and the present or
dsrly appearance OF the Exposition grounds is
similar to lady'S house day or two q after the
greatest party OF the season. II wsuld be a
cause OF real regret II the results Of our ma
tional character and greatness could not be per-
pstuatsd. Happily, the Centennial Photo
graphlS Company, OF PhilAdel Phia. having ex-
elusive authority to use Photography within
the grounds and buildings Of the exhibit
ton, have, fortunately for them and the public,
prepared an extensive variety Of negatives
These including buildings, statuAry. private
exhibits, and other beautiful and striking "b-
jsets.
Their Gaia aloguS is 81 attractive that Il will
provoke our country men md women to possess
90 authentic a collection OF pictures Of the
greatest exhibition ever known. Our people,
however, will especially wish meme nioeS OF lhs
products Of THAR neiRhbOrs, aud Of the whole
land they love the best.
