TH PARIS EXPOSITION.

The Commissioner of Agriculture
has published circular, in which
he says That in pursuance of The
authority vested in him by an act of
Congress, he has undertaken 'to
collect and prepare, as far as practi-
cable, md with as little delay as
possible, suitable specimens of the
agricultural productions of the sew
eral States and Territories Of the
Union for exhibition at tho Paris
Exhibition. He therefore proposes
to accept from any source specimens
of native fertilizing materials, of
vegetable products of every de>
scription capable of ready preserva-
tion and exhibition, and of materials
manufactured from such products.
They will include intermediate
products Of the methods of manu~
facture, which may be so arranged
ns to show, as far as possible by
means of them, the processes in
volved. The classification of mate.
rials adopted by the department.
is ns follows
First Native fertilizing, materials.
Second-Raw products of the
States and territories, to be ar
ranged with special reference to the
locality of growth or production.
Third-Materials, raw and manu>
factured, to be especially arranged
to illustrate the metho ls of utiliza
tion and manufacture of agricultural
products.
Fourth-Plans or methods of
farming, irrigation, fruit culture, &c.
Fifth-Working models of ma
chinery and apparatus employed in
the utilization of agricultural pro-
ducts.
Expenses of transportation to
Washington must be prepaid by
contributors, but for packages the
weight of which will not exceed the
limit allowed by law for mailable
matter (four pounds) tho department
will furnish on application postage
to prepay expenses of transmission
through the mails. After the arrival
of goods at this point, tho depart
ment will take entire charge of them
until their return to this country.
The exposition will be opened May
/, and it is therefore necessary that
NIL material for exhibition shall be
delivered hore before March 3. Par
ties desiring to contribute material
should therefore communicate the
fact at once in order to avoid furth-
or delay.

The Growth of Interest in Dogs.

If anything were wanting to convince
tho skeptical as to the high status of the
dog in this country at the present day, it
would only be necessary for him to at
tend one of the dog or "bench" shows
which are held in all the principal cities.
Although Englshmen have always been
more enthusiastic over these four-footed
friends than We, yet even there a great
revival occurred some fifteen years ago
when "bench" shows became common,
and rivalry led to closer study and great
improvements in all popular breeds. The
fever finally spread to this country, but
was at first confined almost entirely to
dogs used for sporting purposes, such as
the setter and the pointer; and it was not
until the occurrence of the show given
by the Westminster Kennel Club in New
York city last spring that the merits of
the transporting classes, and their right
to prominent position at dog shows,
was fully recognized. 1t was but just
that this should be so. We cannot all be
sportsmen, and the owner of pure mas
tiff or St. Bernard, or even diminutive
terrier or pug, may take the same pride
or pleasure in the possession Of his or
her pet and companion, as the sportsman
does in his bird dog. Had we ever
been blessed with Lsndseer or Harrison
Weir in this country, it is possible that
our knowledge Of the various breeds Of
dogs might not be 80 limited. As it is,
We are obliged to go to England for our
authorities and for our standards of ex-
cellence. There is but one breed of dogs
that can be said to have originated in the
United States, and that is the Chesapeake
Bay retriever, and of course the ancestors
of this strain came from Great Britain,
although how and when is a matter of
uncertainty. Our best dogs q speak of
the classes about which am writing are
all either direct importations or about
one or two generations removed from
such, and nine out of ten persons who
are describing to you the excellencies of
their pets will say with pride that he
or his sire or dam, was imported from the
kennels of So-and-so. In few years all
this will be changed. We are importing
the best, and with careful mating there is
no doubt but that we shall equal or ex-
eel the productions of our English
cousins. They are coming TO US for their
short-horns; we may yet send them dogs.
A gentleman who breeds St. Bernards
told me recently he could almost guaran-
tee that there would be fifty entries Of
these dogs alone at the Westminster Ken
mel Club show which occurs on the 18th
of May, ls7s.-Wm. n. THeston, in
