'hie" is the awkward-seeming" name of; the .
association which has recently held;' at Paris, -
its third annual exhibition. The chief purpose
of these exhibitions is the . display of modern
decorative art, Each as artistically designed
jewelry, bronze, poreelain, glassware, paper
kiangings,furniture,and the like. There wore ex
hibited niagnifieerit apeChnens of that " painted

manufaethte aecording to a redlceveted pro
.
cess. 'Pieces - Of this fabric have been imported
intoAmenewat different - times during the past
two • otOreo : years; but the demand for it is
naturally small, as our wealthy householders
have, scarcely begtin to care for richly-decorated
interiors. . The enameled jewelry in imitation ,
ti Japanese work, the, bronze enameled 'in
Wolf Of ancient elnbmind enamel, the stamped
and- .riehly colored , .and gilded wall-paper
pi:imitation ,of.. ancient stamped leather, '
and the "modern majolica," or' enameled and
painted earthenware—of each of which " in
dustries" a splendid display was made at the
Exposition—are somewhat known to those
persona who watch the importations Of
Marcotte & Tiffany & Co.; and other
tenses. But, as a general thing, the' ,most
4d m intb . le specimens of any decorative
work of these or other kinds are avoided by the
importers into this country,and this not merely
because of the high cost of the best pi&e.s. The
beat pieces do not always cost the most. But
ft is always assunied by those who buy for this
market that the best-designed work -will not
" take" well in this country. The ditiCrence
between the importers is, it is true, very 'ateat,
in this respect, one house 'offering a vastly
better chosen stock than another, and this
fot aeason after season ; but the 44 Classical"
bronzes`, of Barbedienne, and these
or, Mr. '.Gpicharp painted tapestries
that are copied from bighiclass originals; and,
generally, -.works addressed, to amateurs •as
ditinguisbed from the crowd of buyers of
fashionable articles, are carefully avoided' by
Amt. :caterers. They ought to know hest ;' but
ft is eettaiii that great success has, rewarded
those dealers who have ventured something
on' he good taste of people this side the water.
It is fair to say that the largest dealers are not
Ate most backward, and yet it is the conviction
of many who watch these tendencies closely
that a little more confidence in their customers
bete would reward them mere often than it
would deceive them.
,
In Connection with_the above a superb loan
collection of Oriental art was formed—perhaps
the finest that has been 'brought together.' It
seems, from alla&ounts---we have not yet re
ceived the catalogue .ralsonneto haVe been
singularly complete, doing full justice to and
fully representing the great, departments of
poreelaine;,faience, bronze, enamel, and glass,
and the only lessimpertant Ones of lacquer,
Carving in stone and jvory, ,and embroidery.
Chinese, Japanese, Indisu ; Siamese, Persian—
all Oriental styles were. there. The classifica
tion was careful and. . accurate, made in the
light of the most thorough modern criti
cism.• One thing was done which . it was
well to do: the influence of the Oriental arts
over Europe was shown by a special colleCtion
of such Moresque, Spanish, Byzantine, and
Italian works of industrial art as' reflect the
Oriental style of design. To trace through
these the influence of the East upon all the art
of Europe is a most curious and interesting
study, but possible only hra slow and tenta
tive way except when such a collection as this
is brought together. Another curious collec
tion was that showing the reflex influence of
Europe upon the East—that is to say, the
Eastern treatment of subjects furnished by
Europe, particularly coats of arms, crests and
minces, and stories from European literature.
-Nation.
Louis Viardot observes : If we consider the .
subdivisions of the hue arts, we find that paint
ing is the one which developed itself the last of
ali in chronological order; and although sculp
ture was of an earlier date, yet the priority
roust be assigned to architecture, which was
the result of man's wants, and which originated
in the necessity of providing against the in
clemency of the weather. America has not
yet got to the point of an expressive, suitable,
national architecture.
THE SITE OF . NORRISTOWN-OLD
WORTHIES.
On Saturday w e reprinted an old Agree
ment, of 1776, to sell six hundred acres of land,
now the site of Norristown. The Agreement
was had•between John Bull, owner, and Dr.
Wm. Smith, purchaser; and it was recited that
Bull had bought the property from Mary
Norris, widow. The Norristown Daily Herald,
apropos of this Agreement, has some interest
ing3eminiscences of Mrs. Norris, of Mr. Bull,
and of Dr. Smith : •
" The Mary Norris named in the- document
was the wife of Charles Norris. Shortly after
his death, the widow, on the 17th of Septem
ber, 1771, sold a mill and five hundred and
jorty-three acres, situated on the east side of
the riVer, now part of Norristown, to John
Bull, of Limerick township, a native of Provi
dence township. 3fr, Bull was a prominent
citizen, and in January, 1775, - was one
of twelve. members of Philadelphia
county (this - part of Montgomery
• being then included in the county of
Philadelphia) who met in a convention having
for its object the -passage of a law by the
Assembly to prohibit the importation of slaves,
Ile subsequently commanded a battalion of
eight companies in the Revolutionary War. He
-was also one of four representatives from Phila
delphia county in the convention that framed
the State Constitution adopted 28th September,
1776. In November of this year he sold the
property, as will be seen by reading the agree
ment, to Dr. William Smith, for:120,000. Dr.
Smith subsequently deeded the property to the
University of Pennsylvania, of which he was
then Provost. Ills son, William Moore Smith,
mterward beeaMe the owner and laid out the
town of Norris, in 1785, which consisted of
sixty-four town lots, bounded on the north
by Airy street, east by Green street, south by
Lafayette street, and west by Cherry street.
In 1612. Norristown obtained a borough
charter from the Legislature. It was not un
til 11'53 the limits of the town were extended.
It lininerly contained about 5:20 acres; it now
covers about 2,300 acres of land."
Ancient tuen•ut•Asmy.
From M. Auguste Demmin'S work on Arms
and Armor we may learn how the study of
arms has often thrown light upon ethnology;
here is a case in point: "The Burgundians
were a tall and strong race, 'and from the large
Itiltdi of their swords must have had very large •
hands." We may add, that at the Eglinton
• tournament it was found that the armor of
aniient collections could not be worn by the
weU-grown dandies of modern England.
Many curious situations arose in old times
Out 'of the employment of mercenary troops,.

last session of the Legislature, has just or
ganized by electing Charles Warner President,
E. T. Warner Vice President, and A. a
Warner Secretary. The number of stock
holders is quite small, but it: has alarge Capital
and will immediately. purchase steamers for an
outside line between this city and New York..
The Harlan & Hollhippworth Conipany has
just commenced building a large dry dock to
enable them to repair a larger class of vessels
than it is Possible to haul out On a marine rail
way. It will be 340 feet long, 93 feet wide at
the top and 4S at the bottom, and is designed
to accommodate the targest ocean steamers. It
is the first dry dock ever built. in
this city. and is a most important addition' to .
the company's extensive works.
This company has just laid the keel for It
large iron steamship for the " Old Dominion

ever built in a Wihniugtoa yard: Iler engine
will have a :70 inch.c) Wider with 11 feet stroke.
She is designed to ply between New York and
Richmond, touching at Norfolk. . But, though
thus intended for coastwise trade, she will be
in all respects a first-class ocean steamer, and
conld, if desired, be put on a line between New
"York and Liverpool. •
Middletown, down the Delaware railroad,
has just had a sensation. Six $2.0 counterfeit
notes on the Market National Bank of New

there, last Tuesday, by W. C. Jump, a store
keeper at Kenton (also a member of the Legis
lature), and a man named Patrick Mellon; a
saloon-keeper of Kenton. The character of
the notes was not' discovered until Thtirsday,
when Mellon was arrested, and Mr. Jump was
seen in Smyrna. The latter immediately re
deemed the five itotes he had passed and as
sisted Mellon to redeem the, ether.. Mr. Jump
said he had received the notes in getting a $lOO
bill changed in Philadelphia, and that he passed
them in the way lie did, only making small
purchases with each, to obtain small change.
Mellon claimed to haVe received his at a faro
bank in Philadelphia. The explanation satis
fied the, magistrate, and he declined to take
any further action-in the matter: The United

the parties implicated will have a hearing here,

Proposed Postal Reforms.
The following letter has been received at the
Post-office Departinent
WASIIINGTON,3O,II. 15, 1870.-Hon. A J.
Creswell, Postirtaster-Generol : Sur The,
undersigned postmasters and special agents
having met at Washington by your invitation
for consultation in regard to the general good
of the postal service, respectfally submit the
following- recommendations , and suggestions :
.Beyistration of Letters.—ist. That the regis
tration fee on letters be reduced from fifteen to
six cents, and in addition to said fee the regu
lar rate of postage as now fixed by law be con
tinued: • 2d. That, at your . discretion,.. there'
be established agencies in the large cities for
the registration of letters. 3d. That it would .
be expedient to establish a torough • registra
tion service between the large post-offices,
either by means of a combination lock or sealed
pouch, thus avoiding the giving of intermediate
receipts. 4th. We recommend the adoption
of a more secure envelope for transmitting
registered letters. ' •
Money Orders, etc.—First, that the fees for
money orders in amount not exceeding $lO,
be .reduced- .five cents...-. That in view of the
reduction of fees for registering. valuable let
ters and money, and for transmitting money
by money orders, it is advisable for the de
partment to urge the public to use these means
of transmission, and especially that attention
be called to the ease with which lost or mis
sent letters or packages, when registered, may
be traced; and also to the certainty and safety
of the money-order 'system, and discouraging, '
as, far as possible, the transmission of money
and valuable papers by ordinary letters.
r Dead-Letter Qflice.—That at your discretion
there be located in the post-office of each large
city an agent or deputy of the dead-letter office,
who, under the specific regulations of the de
partment, may open and properly dispose of
such held for postage as may come into said
office, request letters excepted.
Postaye.—L-That all unsealed circulars printed
on a single notc.or letter-sheet size of paper, all
newspapers. (weekly ekeepted), and periodicals
not exceeding four ounces in weight, dropped:'
into a flee' delivery 'office for &liver by
the office, or its carriers, he rated at one
cent and prepaid :A*, stamp; periodiells
weighing over four: ,ounces at tw,O scuts
for each four :ounces or fraction thereof;
;that 'citithouf :Manuscripts intended for . pe
riodicals, and 'all publications when: paSsing
b4wven the
"..publisher and author, be rated .
Mdforni With , book , manuscript: that during
the coming week we will submit in writing,:to
fie. PoStmaster-GeneralOur • views upon the
feOsihility of a reduction of postage upon neWs
,paPer Matter When, , mailed by the pUblisher,
'provided the' same be prepaid by weight; in
ludic, at the office of Malting. publisheis being
allowed to transmit - specimen copies, and. to
„inclose their, posters, prospectuses and supple
ments. We recommend' the postage on un
sealed circulars, printed on letter or note-sheet
size paper, be fixed by law at one cent each,
prepaid by stamp, Whether intended for loCal
delivery or tbr transmission thrOfigh the mail;
that the department be' renluefted to tarnish
a one-cent stamped envelope for mailing cir
culars.
Brows/ Enre/opes.—We respertfulfy recom
mend the department to use every possible
means to. increase the use of stamped envelopes
with the writer's name endorsed or printed
thereon.
Leller-Carriers.—We are of opinion that the
present system of uniform compensation to
the carriers' service is inequitable, and we re
commend a division of the letter carriers' of
fices into three classes, to wit : First class to
consist of cities having a population of 100,000
and upwards; second class,. Cities - having a
population of 50,000 and upwards to, 100,000
third class,. cities having a population of 50,000 f I
or less. That. carriers appointed to cities of
the first class should be compensated at $BOO
when appointed, and at the expiration of six
months' service should comPensited at,
$9OO, and at the expiration of the next
succeeding six months' service should be com
pensated at $1,000; but carriers appointed to
duties of the second clogs shonld be compen
sated at $7OO when anpointed, and at the expi
ration of six months' service should be• eOlll--
pm:mated at SSOO, and at the expiration' of the
next succeeding six months' service should be .
Compensated at $9OO per annum. That tbe,
carriers appointed to cities of the second and
third class may be emplOyed at stations of the,
suburbs of large cities on the recommendation
of the postmaster of said large city. We, sub
mit that the result Of our experience justifies
the endorsement of the carrier sVatem as being
preferable to any existing' - service for general
mail delivery in the large cities.
That we recommend legislation providing_
that no letter-Carrier shalt be removed fretti
office, except upon specific, charges of misbe
havior, incompetency, or iii bis= detectitin in
the violation of the postal laws. In our judg
ment, it is advisable to use horse's in' connec-' .•
Lion with the free delivery service in the
suburbs and districts.
.MlO pork and Boston Post-offices:—That
we have carefully exami,ied the plans and
designs for the New York and Boston post
offices, as submitted by the supervising archi
tect, A. B. Mullett, and commend the same as
being thoroughly adapted to the wants of the
department in the reSpective cities,.and we feel
that the early completion of 'said buildings is
demanded by the exigencies of the postal ser
vice.
Sfreet L'ette'r-BkreA.—That we'Conderinn the
street letter-box now furnished the department,
under the contract known as the• "Strong
patent," and we would respectfully recommend
the adoption of a street letter-box about one
and a half feet in length, six inches in depth,.
and twelve inches in width, with an opening'
at the top stifliciently large to receive magazines
and newspapers; the opening protected
. from
the weather with a curved top, to carry off
Water, and a door in the side or front, with side
flanges. to take the matter from, and that hours
for collection be distinctly shown upon the
outside of the "box. Upon the request of • the
postmaster at any office the aforesaid described
box should be furnished with an aperture for
the reiteival of letters only.
Postage Shimps and Gum.—We have ;pre
fully examined the specimens of the new series
of postage stamps, as submitted by the Third
Assistant Postmaster-General, and heartily
approve of the steps taken by the department
to provide this series, which, in our opinion, is
more in accordance with our national charac
ter, and in better taste, than the stamp now in
use. We further recommend the special at
tention of the department to the securinr , of a
safer and better article of gum for the new
stamp about to be adopted.
Bags.—That IL B. Lowry's improved
mail-bag fastening and loch, as submitted for
our exa - niination by the Secorftl Assistant
Postmaster-General, is regarded as no itn-
prominent upon the bag or -lock now in use.
Free deliefiv.—We have carefully examined
the existin r ,a resrulations,of the department. for
the . free delivery service, and hare indidaied
detail on the margin of the printed regulations
relating to . the same the Varioutitarige which
we respectfully submit for your consideration.
Frmilcing Prirarge.--'-That we avail ,our
selves of this occasion to express our approval
and earnest endorsement of the , Mints being
made_by the_PresidentandPost e master-Generat
to secure the abolition of the franking, privilege,
