A POOR SHOW OF MACHINERY.

considerable portion of the Exposition buiId-
ings is given up to machinery and to the exposition
of mechanical Industries. There are two large
rooms full of steam-engiDes, pumps and other
machinery, and besides there are TWO rooms called
galleries of labor" in which the practical work
ing of certain industries is exemplifed Ii seemed
to me that the exhibition in this department was
not very creditable one though it was better than
l expected to Recent statistics which arc
presumed to be correct state that out of a ponula-
ton OF about 2S,0O0O00 people, not over half a
million, counting in women and children are en-
gagged in manufacturing industries; and every one
knows that even i'll tie manufacturing industries
to the greatest possible extent, but the very re-
verse. In one of the galleries of labor the proc
ess of slk-makng is shown from beginning to
end, from the worm up, but even in this industry
which engages more persons than all the other
manufacturing industries of the country put to-
gethcr, there appears to be wofn lack of labor
saving machinery. The Italians turn out some ex-
cellent fabrics OF silk and these fabrics are shown
to good advantage in the Exposition but they turn
them out in slow and clumsy way and failed
to see anything at the Exposition that will suggest
