THE GREAT PARIS EXHIBITION.
New York Herald.

New York Herald.
Between the great exhibition and private
and public fetes the Parisians are about as
gay az human surroundings will permit.
The great concert hall of the Trocadero has
been thrown open, and is said to be a fine
thing in its special way, as we'll az a great
adjunct to the exhibition. Our own section
is complete at last, and our exhibits are said
to crafty the French in many respects. The
appreciation Of possible purchasers is always
a good thing, and when We hear of Califor-
mia wheat being as highly thought of as
California gold we see that world shows are
useful to the people who have wheat to sell.
They delight, too, in our sleeping coaches,
and they need them very much on European
railroads. Amid this pleasant hum Of adj
miration over our products and manufac-
lures the suggestion that q little more money
some forty thousand dollars-is needed,
comes upon Us without a very great shock.
As it 10 absolutely necessary in order to in
sure u national presentability all through

not only give, but give ungrudgingly. Cen
eral Grant has eaten two more dinners given
in his honor, but We are afraid from the
way he is losing flesh that the French cuisine
does not agree with him as we'll as White

for the general . return to his eight years

would oppose seeing the prescription carried
