To-ash (ThuridaY), the Perma
nent - International Rishibitiou , will
be thrown open to the public. In
point of extent, diversity and mag
nifieence, the present exhibition does
not approximate Centennial; but
in completeness; classification, and
the gerieral arrangement -of the sev
eral departments, it cannot be, com
pared disPasagingly. 'The exhibition
Will be held in the Main - Banding,
which was purchased by the compa
ny for this purpose. Alhough meet
ing with many discouragement, , ev
erything has been progresiing slot
and uninterruptedly, and the m
moth show will be in readiness when
the opening day arrives.
3lmay architectural changes 'mire
been made since last summer. The
only 4 v i ery marked change in the in
terior of the building, is at the cen
tre of t4e north side; here, the high
gallery has been connected with the
floor by a long sweep of high steps,
.reaching far out towards' the centre
where the music stand was original
ly located. Upon hese I are placed
tiers of gradually ascending seats,
and above them the great organ.
This grand stage. is intended 'kir the
accommodation of chorus . and or
cheatra, entertainments. In front`of
the elevated stage or rrnicetl
form, is a clear area .200 feet in width
by 240 feet in length to the centre of
the building,,and this is soon to have.
accommodations for an audience of
,000 people. On - , the music' stand
can be 'seated a chorus of 2,500
voices, not, including a fall orches
tra, !and , this will not' interfere
with the ascending , avenues on eel
side, leading to tlro arcades, form e
by-connecting with a bridge the two
north toNfers arid the organ gallery.
From the top of these, arcades the
view-will doubtless be most magnifi
cent, and it is already one of rare at-
tractiveness.
Soine of the most interesting ob
jects are near the centre of the build
ing and within a short 'distance of
the muste• l statd,- so , that one. may
roam'about examining different Oki-.
jects of interest, and at the same tim e\
enjoy tbe, — music. The musical audi
torium is bounded by towers, in•one
of which has been constructed by
the. Ladies' Committees fac-simile of
'an Indian 'encarepment, , including'
wigwams, weapons, rude _ utensils,
ttc., together with life-Sizefigures in
Indian costumes which recently haVe
been purchtisei.4 and are now,on their:
way frothjhe-West. The surround
ings-of this encampment will be aS
closely imitative of nature as possi
ble, and will include gra'ss, under
growth trees, rocks, and possibly a
running stream. hi dangerous prox
imity to this hostile retreat of the LO
family: is placed the Old Log Cabin
and New England Kitchen, which
must yet be vividly remembered by
Centennial visitors. Miss South-
wick, to whose energy we owe this
feature of bpth exhibitions, has just
returned from her -New Englan&
home, and brings with her a multi=
tude of new,,Alor more strictly speak
ing old, relics not before publicly
shown.
In the centre of the buildings is a
bronze statue of the Goddess of Lib- ,
erty, not previously exhibited. To •
the south of this is arranged the fine
art exhibits, including marble and
hrOnze statues, plaster, casts, oil
paintinga, engravings, mezzotints,
photographs, etc. The'lisplay of
statuary will be fine, and though
much smaller than that of the .Cen
tennial, nothing will be lOst by ' the
change, as it is inipcissible to really \
`enjoy or closely examine any work
of art where the eye, is continually
distracted by a forest of other forms
equally beautiful. A specially' inter
esting addition to this department is
a group of full-size plaster ca,stekof
nearly all the great Americana to
whoni statues have been erected with- •
in the last fifty years. Among these
can now be seen a life-size statue of
Generkl PUTNAM, another of. General
RAWLINS, another of FRANKLIN, two
Of WASIIINGTON, two Of LINCOLN,. a
•
large equestrian statue of General
Scorr, and another of General Mo-
PiinsoN, who, it will be remember
ed, 'was killed in the advance on At
lanta: Ranged along the north and
south sides of • the Main Building,
and sufficiently interspeed with
other displays to prevent monotony,
are the State exhibits presented to '
the Exhibition Company by theiti
zens Of Viigiaia, West
North Carolina u Florida, Arkansas,
Colorado, Nebraska; Oregon, Wis
consh, Missouri and Iowa:
The Machinery department is la.
cated in the south-western part of
the building. The glass works, vsry
pleasantly, remembered by all visi
tors to the Centennial, will be one
of the attractions of the new enter
prise; Many of the most interesting
exhibits in Machinery Hall are:to be .
duplicated in the Permanent Exhiln
bition, including the tobacco factory,
with its chorus• of negro melOdbits.
Directly opposite the machinery de
partment, in the north-west section
of the building, is the .agricultural
department. A prominent and fa
miliar object noticeable here is •the
old which stands as mo
tionless, as silent,and aadeseried as
of yore, but ;which mast long eontin-,
ue to be a touching reminiscence. of
"ye olden tyme," before steam and

TUE CONVENT' N.
The Republican County onven
tion met on Tuesday last. , T \l::)ro
ceedings were entirely harmous,
and reflect the sentiinents of the •••
publicans of thesouny. The candi
dates before the • Convention for the
offices to be filled this_ fail4 \ were all
worthy the posiiions they sought, and
y
an of them would have - been )entire
ly acceptable to the people or t he
county. Mr. MCPHERSON, the nomk. ,
nee for District Attorney; has been
a member of the bar for several years,
and has won for himself an excellent
reputation as an able practioner, and
upright, honest gentleman. Starting
with but limited means, and without
influential friends 'he educated him
self, and by native talent,. supple-_
mented by untiring energy and close
application to business, has already
come to be looked upon as one of
our,most promising lawyers. He . will
be triumphantly 'elected, and make a
most popular.and efficient-officer.
Mr. &want), the candidate for
County Surveyor,ls a native of this
county, having been born and reared

is just the.lcind of a man that should,

v The selection Of delegates to the
•State Convention was a flatterineen
l'orsement of the course' of our Sena
or and members in •the Legislature,
and thpolicy of the party in - the
State anOation, as the , persons se

• CONSIDERATION for the business

the sole reason. ler posting the
extra session, of Congress the
15th of October. There,•can be e n
question that the very wide range*
somewhat acrid discussion which' '
would have been inevitable at a June
session, might have affected adversely
the growth of commercial confidence,
and the inconvenience from which
the officers of the 'Army will be al
most the only sufferers bears proba
bly a very small 'proportion -to the
mischief which might have attended
several weeks of active political dis
turbance a month hence. On .the
whole, the country will be relieved'
to find that we have , escaped the ma
ffiction of Congress in the dog-days,
and that the representatives of the
peopl not be :called upon to
risk I talth and their temper by
'the ht burden of a June -ses
sion:

THE Indianapolis Journal says:
"If the South alters and proves re
creant to the prt:Mkises made \ in her
behalf by leading mea ; if colored Re-.
publicans be miatreatek or depved
of their rights ; if their proinisesprove
to be but delusions, then we wain
them
them that an indignaat sentAckent will,
be evoked from the loyal people of l
this country that will grind them to
el \
powder. This trial ii made in F
faith by the administration, and n o
without much misgiving on the part
of the best heads and hearts of the
party. The issue is with the . South
itself, its leaders, and.its ruling class-
es. Upon them is the responsibility
and it Will be no easy burden to car-'
ry. There \ is no room for child's
play, for buncombe, 'for parade, and
pyrotechnics."
TUE Pittsburg Commercial says
Senator J. D. CAMERON is in that city
in pursuance of a plan of visitation
in the western part of the State. He
proposes to familiarize himbelf
persona' intercourse and observation
with the wants' of the. manufact
and views of the people, in ordl
he may be prepared to clearly
telligeptly represent them in thi
