The Uireetor General aud Secretary have established themselves there, and their offices are aUwaya accessible during viuuich uvuri.

Isutlng the past week, on Tuesday and Wednesday, meetings were held by the Boaxd of Management to consider the question of a site lor the Expuaituin Buildings. All the proposed locations having been personally examined by the board, it is stated that only some matters of detail, soon to be settled, are ueedea to be periected, before a decision can be made.

In regard to an exhibition of fruits ananowers: MrSSLSSirPI VALLET) Borticuituxal Society, Cobden, Aug. SO.

l8d. I Jfv Vtttr Mr. Eudno. Your Tar or of the 26ih at band. I am sorry I cannot meet you In Louisville.

1 would gladly do so, but 1 nave a business matter to attena to in Chicago tbe last of next week, and I must go on to Philadelphia on the loth. But I may find it uoestole to ko down to New Orleans late this tall and spend a day or two with von ana tms, i minx, wiu renuy oe tae best thing to do. You will then be further advanced In your arrangements, and we can talk more ot nnneiy. Mvlde is that our society should only undertake the pomologloal division of your horticultural snow the Coral part of It will necessarily be mostly looal, stud can doubt less be belter provided for by a committee of your citizens. I think, however, that tbe floral and fruit exhibits can and should be arranged In the same hall or building, as they compliment each other so handsomely.

One or tne nrst tmngs vo oeciue wui oe the continuance of the poiuologioal exhibit. Shall we try to niaae a show at the opening and by replacing tailing varieties keep it up till the end; or shall there be certain one. two or three months of continuous exhibition or shall the centennial pine of an exhibit xor a ween or so eavoa month of the season be adopted The lat ter plan would seem te be impracticable from the taot there would bo uitlo variety In the exhibits to be made in the several winter months, ily prevent Impression Is that our exhibition should begin about lec 1 or Jan. 1, and be coounuea so far as possible to cover the period of your largest attendance from the country at large. I think we should be a very diversified and liberal premium list, to oil som 12.0UI to plates; which would oe cupy eontebooo to lo.ouo feet of table sur fatc.

te should have largo exhibits from the British provinces and Mew England axd all of onrNorthern, Central and West em fc vales from all of the Pact tie States and from every section of the South that we should get the largest and moet varied semi tropical and tropical exmbit ever made, embraclrg, where possible, plants In bearing, we should have ail transplantable varieties from the Islands. Central America and Mexico. We can also, doubtless, secure exhibits' trow England and Fiance and other European countries. What I want la a grander show of this kind than tbe world has ever seen before. And trus should be made a lesjdinjr feature of your Centennial.

Of course all at this will cost a good deal of money. JLare fruit exhibits cannot be reilSkbiy secureu wiuious uarge prtiuiiuas. The lesson for this is apparent the fruitgrower does nov exhibit as an advertisement of his goods. Tbe Echiblton does not fleet his maiket or his production. But be likes the honor of taking premiums, and to have money enough coin out of tJ pay eotts.

1 think your Exposition medals can be used In connection with or as a substitute for money premiums. Bnt believe that large money premiums must be offered to sectue a great shew, and there will be so many expeuses attending the collecting ef so u.any exhibits, and tbe care of them, and apenie of Judges, etc Estimating In a most general way, I think your board should be prepared to put tio 009 Into this show, aside from the building and fixtures. But that it will pay you well to do so, I bave not the least doubt. If you find yonr board takes liberal views eonoern Jug this we will arrange for a conference In one time. In which the whole matter ean be considered more in detail.

Very truly your. Parxks Earls. The following extracts from the report of Commissioner General More head, on the Lt'tusvllle anu Cincinnati Expositions, now In pros rces, are given He thinks that the eagerness with which infoimatlt concerning our Exposition is sought by ex ni tutors at louisviiie, maioates that we will have the most thorougund complete exhibit ever made In the United States. Tbe teneral display of agricultural imple ments at lnisviiie is deemed to oe the best ever made, bnt that those devoted to the prod nets peculiar to the cotton States form but a tinail fraction. Of the floral and borticul rural display, he says: There is nothing better calculated to make an Exposition attractive tuau a airplay of fruits and flowers." "Alter tbe eye has become weary with the slant and the ear deafeued with the turn of the machinery in motion, there is ot Ling so soothing and grntirring to tbe Exposition visitor than a tasteful display of green plants, blooming flowers, mid cascades and grottoes.

Tuia feature ean be made more magKiHceut at Ne Orleans tlan has been possible at any other Exposition ever held in the wuaid, aud iuauy 1 cittern" people with wjioui eott i ave manifested an eager anticipation to hold it." 1 AiMied the Exposition at Cincinnati for two mi nly. It has many features worthy of itt itetiou, notably the compact, harmonious una tasteful arraugetuem and group 1) Of Its exhibits Perhaps the lo jst in Mr live part of this Exposition the exhibit i vaiioas metal working machinery in motion, which Is said to be the best ever made in that brateb of industry.

The police arrested Bat or day moraine a negro who gave his name as Charles Mathorin, but who Is supposed to ha Nelson le lisle, an escaped convict.

The arrest was made opon sfc.fiiciou that the negro Is the person who stele the. horse from Joe Turner on Sunday' last. Mathorin was taken to the Chiefs office, where he was questioned by Chief Rovfley aud the uetec tlves. lie asserted jntsicrvely tltat hebad given his real name, aud that he was not tie convict. He was then sent to the r'arish Prison for ldenlitlcnyon there, aud the officials of the prison decided that he was not Io Lisle.

Six or seven years ago De Lisle was tried and convicted of horse stealing, and was sentenced to the Penitentiary for rive year. Some time futer be made his escape, but was rccsptnred aud rt back to Baton Kooce to serve the remainder of his term. He attain inade his eepe, and haa up to tbe prcetnt remained at large.

It was originally bnlU 'ST nee of a nrm ex gaged ia business WW11 West Indies, and was for many years sO0" pied by Messrs. Uzardl A Co. It was thVn an oia fssnionea, one story structure, erected after the Spanish style of architecture, its walls were two feet thick and rested on a granite foundation. The roof was heavy and covered with tiles. In the gradual march of laaprorcnnent another story was added to the building, and it became an amusement hall one of tbe largest of the kind In the city a the time known as "Lav Salle d'Harnvonie." Pending tbe construction of the old Cns totn Hoose It was rented by Mr.

James Freret, then Collector of the Port, for Government purposes, and the business of the customs serviice was for some time carried on within Its walla. During the war the building was partially destroyed by fire. It was then the Iroterty of the Marque to family, who, as they did not care to attempt its restoration, agreed with the Deutsche Club, then a wealthy social corporation, that in consideration of Its being rebuilt they should be pern iitd to occupy It rent free for twelve ears. Under the auspices of the club the ball was rebuilt and handsomely fitted. The club occupied it for a number of years, but finally the opening of the concert saloons in tne vicinity damaged the location as a place for social gatherings to snob an extent that the building was leased to the Screwmen's Association as a place of meeting.

Tbe association continued its tenants for nearly nine years, when a project was orn.t lor lt purchase. Steps were taken to raise tbe necessary lands and as they ae cumulated they were deposited in the southern Bank. By the failure of that in stitution the funds were of coarse consider ably diminished, bat nowise disheartened the members of the association set to work with a will, raised the required amount, and in 1882 purchased the hall for 640u, cssh. As has already been said, the repairs Just completed are extensive and thorough, and reflect the greatest credit apon the contractor by whom they were made, Mr. Wm.

McCubbln. The building has been handsomely painted throughout and the Interior walls newlv olastered and kalsommed. The apertures for. ventilation have all been ln ereeaea, ana nre escapes, leading rrom tne upper to tbe lower gallery, have been pat In. New committee and reception rooms and offices have been arranged, ana the ball room and large meeting room enlarged and handsomely 'refitted.

The Interior work, in plaster and paint, consists principally of hard finished plaster, skillfully kalsommed, and contrasted with wood work grained to imitate light colored oak. The association la In a flourishing condi tion.

an oiviiicaA cnmmnnrtiea demand that a hie to be sacrificed shall be see rinsed swiftly snd without needless psln. True, various iiations nave ainerena opinions as now this may best be accomplished, but the American and English Governments have decided that hanging is the most merciful. As compared with the Spanish Instrument of death, the garrote. It ia questionable whether or net hanging Is the most merciful. A bungling executioner may In either case cause unnecessary tortures.

With these subjects, however, this paper has nothing to do. Tbe writer desires simply to set terta the various modes of crucifixion aa adopted by the ancients, and to ahow what terrible suffertsgs the wretched malefactor had to undergo before death came to bis relief. Hours and days of unmitigated torture a thirst wbleh was nnquenohable a prolonged suffocation a horrible gasping for breath, intensified only by a moment's respite the bites of the vultures of the air, ana the stings and borrowings of insects; the burning of tbe rays of the noonday sun. and the cold, clammy dews at midnight tell us, in awful language, of that diem iros, from a repetition of which the present day Is happily delivered. In comparison, our present capital punishments are most merciful, and the vindication of Justice most humane.

Tbe most primitive form seems to have been an opngbt tree, to whloh the viotlm was either bound or nailed. In Ezra Ti. 11, It Is ordered that whoever shall alter his wotd, let timber be pulled down from his home. and. being ret up, let him be hanged thereon, and let his house be made a dang Mil for this." Titus had no time to add a hotlzohtal beam when crucifying 600 Jews a day for months.

He simply drove a pole into the ground, to whloh the victim was lashed, and he was left to die. Slaves were generally punished by having a "lurca" fork) slipped over their necks, to which their arms were tied, and this was boisted to tbe top of a pole and secured there by a rope fitting into a groove. This device evidently suggests the more recent cress, to save time and as being more artistic It was nana! to nail tbe hands, bat to bind tbe feet. It is erroneous to suppose that a single spike secured both feet to the cross, one foot in front of the other. A spike was driven through each foot, sometimes to a support axed on the cross lust bereata the plantar surface of the feet.

Additional cruelty was sometimes practiced by the victim being seated on a spike or "Lorn' (Justin Martyr), tboah at times a piece of wood was so placed that be nub. ht rest on it. The nails, aided by Intense heat, soon piod need gangrene. Although the culprit writhed in agony for some time, it la doubtful whether any long continued activity of the body could be maintained. Tbe weight of the intestines, gravitating downward, produced intussusception.

The circulation was Impeded, the viscera pressing on the veins. The lungs could not be emptied. Insects got Into tbe eyes, nose, ears and wounds. At nightfall the bones of the legs of those still living were broken, ostensibly to hasten death, but la reality to gratify tbe spectators, who were brooming sated. Death (rtrerally resulted from ganarrene of wounds, displacement of viscera, regurgitation of blood through the valves of the heait, pericarditis and paralysis of heart snd lougs.

In many cases death was accelerated by hunger and thirst, the violssl tnosorbeat and cold, or the attests of ravenous birds and beasts, and in others designedly accelerated by burning, stoning, soflo cation, breaking the bones or piercing the vital organ." Adam Clarke, Commentary on Matthew," chap. xxvlL, T. Sfi.) According to Origen, Tiraothens and Maura, a married pair who suffered about the year 26, under Diocletian, remained for nine days and nights on the eros. ex hotting each other, and expired on tbe tenth c'sy. By order of tbe Emperor Max lml an.

in tbe year 397, seven Christians at Samo sata were subjected to long tortures three of tn ni were tsken down from the eros while yet slive, and the Emperor, hearing this, ordered hnge nai's to he driven into their hands. KmT. Medical Journal. Fabotokablk Tailoring. L.

Oar two beaded horse was a walking paradox so skillfully arranged aa not only to be amusing, but, as well, contusing. We leainea tut last evening that this animal, which was part horse and part papier ma die, evolved itself, so to speakvxrom the brain of William Haulon, one of the famous comedians and pan loin lulls ta, liow filling an enaaremcnt at Robinson's. The Hanlons are ail quite clever as inventors, but of their many stage deceptions this Is by far the most original and artistic Tbe brothers yt et ei day received papers patent for this queer contrivance, and purpose at onoe constructing a number for their newpan tcmime.

However, lecognizlng the fact that circuses and other shows might use it to great advantage, they axe prepared to grant them permission when proper application shall be made. Ben E.

One of the ablest and best known of Eng lieh dramatio critics died in London last week. Dutton Cook of the World, and or laeily for several years of the Pall Mall Gazette.

An entertaining and valuable volume of the more permanent of these ctluclame was published a few months ago in London, under the title "Nights at tbe Piey." Mr. Cook was a versatile man and a lover and student of art in various directions. At one time he was a draughtsman on wood tor Punch he wrote li.aiy srticles for the reviews on fine art topics published a volume of essays Art in England and wrote about a dczen novels, the best know of whloh were Hobson's Choice."

London Truth: Miss Mary Anderson made her debut in "Ingomar" Saturday before an English audience.

Our actors aud actresses are la the habit of visiting America, and whether good, bd or lndiifereut, toey generally reap a golden harvest there. The Americans have returned the eompli luent by eending to us llx. Booia, Mx. Jef ferson and other actors, who have to COluDlain of their long since we have been privileged to see an American' actress wno haa achieved ofclebrity at home. You should Ameri sty, 'Mary Anderson and Clara Mot stcre for us, but if she is anything like as MarT 1 trut that the pleasure will not be long deferred.

In her own country Miss Anderson has become famous on account of her beauty and acting. Does she mei it her reputation Yes. Beauty is often a matter of individual appreciation, bat there are women whose beantyis unquestioned snd This may honestly be said of her. With her small, well tet head, her shapely shoulders, her iCBxded anus and her lithe fbture she looks like some Greek statue into which a Pygmalion haa breathed life. Aud she acts as well aa aha lo.il: hands, ia a simple, unaffected curl; when ilia hs.rl.H.rtana tktni.nA.iii ju i ill, will by her.

maidenlike bearing passes unscathed, Bt? a Una among the lions. In her love scenes wivh ltvyonxar she shows childlike delicacy, her comedy is unforced, and her sentiment has none of that weari eorue gush with which we are soof tea beeed, while on the few occasions that she Ua to display tragic force she does so without effort, exaggeration or rant. New ork Mirror: W. Tayleure hae been having a quarrel with a member of bis company supporting Mrs. Chanfraa.

One C. E. tlortoa waa late at a rehearsal, and the manager reprimanded him. II or to a became abusive and threatening, and the two had a 'wrestle' about the stage. It is said that the author of the very latest East Ly nne polished off his man, muoh to the admiration of the ladies present, and then bounced him from tbe company." Mui io and Drama: "Steele McKay was met upon tbe street last week, and told our reporter that he had perfected his new theatre chair, on which her has been engaged for tbe past year.

He haa fsrmed a stock company, with $300,000 sapitaL with Gen. Geo. A. Sheridan, of New Orleans, as President. Mr.

Mack a ye expect to supply every theatre in the country with his invention, as well as every concert room and lecture hall, and proposes to adapt It to churches, and has every reason to believe thst a speedy fortune will come to him as the result of his incessant labor on the invention. The principle is a simple one. The chair packs up, shuts in and folds away in tne space of six Inches, working automatically, the auditor having nothing to do with the arrangement after leaving the seat. A manufactory is shortly to be started, with facilities for manufacturing the chairs as fa6t as they are required. Let us hope Mr.

Mackaye has not surrounded his invention with the same kind of complications that enchered him out of his interests lc 'Hazel Kit It cannot be gainsaid but that Modjeska is an actress or strong emotional power, and becomes completely absorbed In the part she Is playing. Yet aha possesses the singular faculty of being able to do two things at onoe. She will sit upon the stage writing a letter which appears to break her heart, giving utterance to sobs of despair, with the tears falling down her face she conveys to the audience a real, terrible spectacle of a suffering woman writing words that cost her agony while upon the paper that lies before her she draws funny caricatures and all sorts of queer things. During her last engagement In England, when Mr. Dacre played Armanil with her, she on one occasion wrote a real letter to him Instead of tbe letter to IficheUe, which she is supposed to write in the last act.

Constance wears a white wrapper la this act, and Armand, when he comes in, kisses ber dress. Mr. Daere's lips had left a red mark so often on her white gown that Modjeska declared, in fun, it was impossible for ber to buy anymore new ones. She forgot to tell him this till he was on tbe stage, and then, when sbe had sent her letter to KichctU, it occurred to her to write to him. She quickly wrote, "Please do not put your red lips on my wrapper, because It Is a new one." And during the writing of this letter the audience supposed her to be in the in tensest throes of grief, so palpably dltt she simulate nature.

What great change baa lately eoVte over this paper which, but a short time asv, was eo hitter In its denunciation of all who dared to think with their own brains instead of making use of those of those honor alio gentlemen, Meetvrs. Darke and Houston Has its eyes been opened to tbe error or its ways by the defeat ef its faworite in the lest congressional canapaign John Ellis. This gentleman wss fairly plastered over with nd and slime from the bateeriesKof the T. whieh v. as not cvntent with besmirching bar fame, but adcd iusult to injury by facetiously ourtailimr his name to EJon.

Notwithstanding all this, Ejon same out so Jar ahead at the end of the race that, to this the mere mention ef his name has the same effect on be great moral en cine that the traditional red flaw flutterkag from a neighboring clothes liner haa on a pent up Jersey bullv 1 have read somewhere, that the Chin a a have ears so peculiarly sensitive that they cannot bear the braying of a These eminently nraeeieal neoDle. noticing that whenever the Jack feels musically inclined Le elevates his tail until it etands straight as a poker pouting heavenward, have imagined that by attaching a wTlht to his caudal appendage the dou key might be prevei'ted from hoisting It, and be thereby compelled to observe a dtguitled alienee, wbleh is more eonbistent wiMt liia appeau anoe and station in life. 1 This they have nut into practloe and have carried out with so roach, success that. throughout the whole of the Celestial Empire, one listens in vain for the braying of a donkey, though thousands of these patieBt animals may be seen, each, how ever, witn a DricK. a scone er some other heavy body dangling at thend of its tail.

Can this be tbe trouble with the T. D. Can it be that there is something heavy attached toltssvpendage. preventing it from: send ing forth its customary tones! What ean toi weigan UBI Perhaps the T. knowings that ex Gov.

Nicbollsis tbe only serious rival of Gor. McEnery, and measuring the height of the pedestal on which our hero stands, has come to the conclusion that its batteries will not carry so farv Being aware of the fact that wnatgoes up must eome down," it has wisely oome to the oonohsslon that its missiles, on returning to earth, might prove mere dangeroua to Itself than to anyone else. Nicholls being out ot range, the mud, would not reach him. But bow about those who were sunging Jtt Would they not be bespattered with Aie returning fragments Might not some. one connected with the t.

d. be tne greatest loser thereby Every person who reads the T. D. must have noticed that, while its own editorials are very dignified and decorous, it never lets pass an opportunity of Injuring Nicholls by publishing, under flaming head lines, extracts from country papers reflecting on that hero. This is done not without intention.

While doing all the harm, it oan to the cause of Nicholls, the T. D. does not wish to hurt the chances of the State Treasurer. It will oe a great thing for that gentleman, when he finds the friends of Nicholls controlling the convention to be able to say, "Remember, gentlemen, that I always advocated a dignified and decorons campaign, and while praising Gov. my piper has never uttered a word that mignt be construed ss a re flection upon tbe noble and patriotic Nicholls."
