Inside is a pyr amid on w Lith are placed glass cases, each containing a different grade of cuffee. The leather and fur depart ment of this tection is pariicu'arly guod. The uses to which they put the rau.ie and bemp iu the wav, of making rupea are fuily equal to our ow n. Their cloths are fine and nice. TLeir marbles and other building stones are very handsome and well arranged. The floor cf their section ; is nearly ali covered with tbe native mats. All is quiet, good taste com jbicedwiih practical utility ia their ; section in Agricultural Hall. In the main building the same Government certainly carries off the palm in the way of gracefulness and good taste, though erhaps not in works of elab orate art. TLe secik'D is parted from the oth ers by a Sort of temple iu tbe mor-e.-que el vie of architecture and is dis tinguished fur the lightness add yet richness of its appearance. It is buns with the greeu and yellow flag of Rrazil down every aiale. The frunt of this section is pecu liarly t legant, acd consists of a square temple with an arched roof of blue and w hite glass. Inside this, which is paved with rnarble, is a large oc tagou glass case in w hich are to be foucd ibe most brilliant array of in sects, tutlerflies, birds and feather Bow ers, pos.-ible'to conceive of. The colors are all the natural ones. Tbe richest scarlet, the brightest blue, the loveliest green and yellow and pur ple are all to be found in the plumage of these birds and the haes of the insects The beetles are made np into the most elegant jewelry, and j they grow hard as stone the minute they die. 5;ome necklaces made of i these bugs are perfectly exquisite. j - Jlow this part are placed cases i containing all sorts of insects, and I maps of the country, drawings, some of them particularly excellent, stuffed birds, fishes, chairs of cane and bam boo, furniture of various styles, cloths, shoes, most elegant diamonds, rough and cut, carpets, and in short almost everything that a cultivated taste could desire. One has not time to eee and see well more than one complete section ia one day. Ycu go in with a full in tention cf confining yourself to see ing thoroughly two sections, but af ter you have seen all or as nearly all as you can, you are so ti.'ed with, sbrht seeing that yoc wander ajcless'j ov;t of tbj builfiinj fpe'.inj too tired to care ebout any more. If you go in the door of the main building at the wes: end, before you can possibly see all that Italy and Norwcy has to show, you feel ae if your eyes and brain were so charged that yoa could not receive any more impressions. I can scarcely yet bring down what 1 have seen in my fifteen visits to enough of method to write. The ar rangements of tbe spaces here is so very bad tbat you have no means by wbicb ycu can remember what yon have teen and where you have seen it. To sum up briefly, Italy make? a finer display in Clagree silver and irold work than any other nation, though many others compete. This sort of jewelry is the prettiest in the j world, beiog so light and delicate. There are daisies, w herj the" pe'als are of si Iyer gai "the centres of god and it is hard to say they are not real (lowers at a distance of a few feet, so fine is the work. The finest oase of tbat work in the building is that of Senor Salvo, from Genoa. Among his articles is a boat of filagree with the ropes, sails and all of that work, i I Tbe sails are as fiae as the finest laee. It is just aa pretty as possible to , - in There are combs, chains, o ... . . br aceietscake and card baskets. cigar-! set T A Ill.IKH BI), 1 H ii SOMERSET, PA., WEDNESDAY, ette cases, Rnuff boxes, card cased, and in short it is difficult to imagine what he has not got. However there is a perfect assortment of ladies' jew elry, ear-rings, bracelets, chains, necklaces, brooches, belts, buckles, everything that the heart of woman could desire. These are for nlc, but with the existing rules uf lb.- Custom House they cannot deliver tbem un til the end of ibe exhibition. Tbe ex hibitor de.ire l to snake an arrange ment with the Custom Hou?e ny which be could pay tbe dbtr upon each article as it is sold, but no, tbey must pay upon all before they can sell ten cents worth. This is unjust enough but not quite so much so as some other things, for instance, tbe Canadian section - received lately a lot of cheese, etc , from Canada, and which were not calculated to keep long. Tbe Canadian commissioner of that country offered pieces of cheese and meats, etc., to their friends but the ever vigilant officer would not permit it and arrested morsels of bread and cheese, while the people were eating them.' I am surprised that theire vigilant o Hirers did not force the persons to take an emetic to make them render unto Ctciar the things that were Cie-tar's aud to tbe Custom Hou.e thft thing that were' not duty free. This exhibition as it is carried on now affords more scope for injustice and abuse of power than anything else that ever came under my knowl edge. Tbe thought of the sunny skies of Italy takes me back to blessed old California, the land 1 love of all others and brings me to notice lbe exhibit on made by tbe Commissioner 'or that1 State. It is very poor, not at all hat I had Doped to tee, but as thev are building a California State House out on the rroun.l-, we shall .- . e i 1 e. of our world renowned fruits a Utile laier uu ill ine seusuu. ii m hi ut uuuer the supervision of Mr. J. II. Culver, Secretary of the Mechanics Institute of Cal foroia. Tbe principal section allotted to California is in Agricultu ral Hall, and is but eleven feet wide to a hundred long. It shows but lit tle of tbe resjurces of California, al though there has been made an ex haustive display of California woods and minerals. Her cereals are poor ly shown, and her flora not at all. There are a few specimensof native birds badly stuffed. A number of large and Cue photographs decorate the section show ing some of ber finest points of interest This part of the exhibition has been made by the Cen tral l'aci6c R. R. Co., and reflects much credit o.i their energy. I forgot to mention a lare and fine collection of California shells, belonging to the gentleman in charge. In the maiu building tbe California Marrion Wool len Mills makes a splendid display of blankets, wbicb are peculiarly white and soft. I haveravjded in many countries, and saw the exuitjition ol Vienna, but no where did I ever see so beautiful goods of that kind. There must be something new in the way of washing the wool or weaving, for tbey are conceded by all who see tbem to be the most delicately fine goods of tbe sort made. Tbe manu facturers claim their whiteness, soft uess of finish and rich blending of tbe colors, of tbe wide borders, and tbe elegant silk bindings. Oa some of them are embroidered lovely chenille wreaths and oa one is a shield beir'og lbe coat of arms of California in woo! work, by a Cali fornia lady. But because I love Cal ifornia I must not occupy all my space with her excellencies, although I would glad'y do so for she deserves it. In tbe main building they have music every day, and you might en joy yourself listeniog to it, were it not for the sounds of the hammers and saws of the workmen, and the extreme rudeness of the people who posh you right and left, and of others who ppii tobacco all over the floors. It is forbidden .for men to smoke in the buildings, but gre-.t puddles of tobacco spittle lie in all directions. Comparatively few people visit the buildings. Tbe price is too high, be ing still fifty cents for men, women and children even to ten years old. Prices are high in the restaurants, and t lere are no fountains where they should be, unless those of soda water and Uger beer. Disgusted is Olive Harper. RTOIT OF A WILL. "Thrown off bis horse and killed!'' I read, in the city weekly paper just issued, as I sat in my law office one moraiog in Wellington, tbe county seat of a certain Franklin county. It was on Thursday morning, in September; and tbe paragraph went on to say tbat on Wednesday morn ing, fctephen Edwards, a wealthy old. farmer, who had lived near a place called the Cross Roads, three or four miles from Wellington, was food dead in the roa.4, within half a mile of his hoise, and the appearance in dicated tbat he ws thrown 'rota, his horse and killed, on Tuesday night, on his way borne from the latter place. "Why, I declare!" I said to myself. "It was only the day before yester day that I wrote bis will, and it was signed and witnessed here in my of fice. How singular! Killed tbat very night!" Mr. Edwards was a somewhat sin gular man. I knew that be changed his mind often, for 1 had drawn sev eral wills for him. In this last one, which I now very emphatically de clared sbonld be the last, he had be queathed the bulk of his wealth to a dissipated nephew, Ross Edwards, re serving barely enough for his only daughter to make the will valid He did not tell why, and it was no part of my business to ask him, although knowing the family w;eyt wondered at it. -;" -"- t bad scarcely finished reading the parapraph relating to the accident, when Mr. Brash, the constable, step ped in. He was not a very learned man, and was very excitable, and en tertained a keen sense of tbe solemni ty of his duties as an officer. "Ilaye you heard about Edwards?" he asked. "I have just read of it," I replied; ira-!"it i a sad thing, I "Well, there is a suspicion of some- l.t - , . -. ' thing about it." 7 . JUNE 7, 1S7G. "Ah! bow so?" I aked. ' You drew his will, didn't you?"' "In favor of Uoss?"' "Yes." "I did. What is wrong about it?'' "Why, his daughter Lucy Las come into town this mornioir. and rot warrant out to arrest her cousin Iloss, on susnicion of mnrder. She savs be knew that tbe will was to bo made in r - t hifH.-or that rlr and m the old man had changed bis mind so often, and might do it again, she believes; that he waylaid and murdered him, so as to make sure of the property. You know Itoss is called a hard case, It's suspicious." "It looks bad," I replied. ( "Itdoesso. Well, I have a war- rant for his arrest, and I am going! to ride out to tbe Cross Iloads.aud get him. Will you go alona? ou are a lawyer, and I would like yoa to go along. You might notice things that I wouldn't" "Yes, I'll go with you," I said; "wait jnst a minute." I bad a horse, which I soon sad dled and bridled, and in a few min utes Mr. Brush and I were galloping away over tne country, towards tbe Cross Roads, a place that aspired toi bo a village on account of its having a postolEee, grocery store, and three or four dwelling bouses. "By the way," said the constable, as he rode along; "did Edwards leave his will in yoar care?" "No b3 took it with him. Was it found in his pocket?" "I didn't ask the e:rl; but well know when we get ;brre. He won't be buried until investigation is made. Tbe coroner is coming to-day." We learned on the way that Ross Edwards made his quarters at tbe Cross Roads tavern; "and when we arrived at the little two-story build ing, we Saw bim sittin? on th nnrc h 1 .. . t i' tru!u we muuij newspaper. He (did not sem to notice us dismount - mg, ana we naa securea our horses! I. at the hitebing-post and stepped upon the pia.za before he was aware of our presence. "Ross Edwards." said Mr. Rrnsh. in a verr impressive tone, ss he laid bis hand on tbe startled man's shoul der, "I arrest yon for tbe murder of yonr uncle, Stephen Edmonds: whom you waylaid on Tuesday nijht, and knocked from his bnrse with a elob, to secure the immediate benefit of his will." Grave as the eccasion w-as. I could scarcely keep from smi'ing at this nomnnus speech: bnt I think Mr. Brush had mentally prepared and committed it to memory on the way. It was the first time that he had been called upon t.i arrest a man cn cbarrre of mnrder. and be evidently intended to make tbe most of it. Ross Edwards looked up into tbe constable's face, then at me. with ap parent surprise: after which he turn ed very pale, and seemed trvin? to apeak though linab'e to inter a word. "i ra sorry," saia .Mr. i;rusn, in a less official tone, "ar.d I hope the chanre may prove false, but I must do my duty. Your cousin Lucy made the complaint, and got the war rant out. Here it is;" and he began to read Commonwealth of " "Never mind reading it," inter rnpted Ross Edwards, recovering his self possession, and spe iking very calmly. "I know what a warrant is, and I know yon are the constable I will en with yoa at once; bnt rest assured there is some mistake about this." He arose and put on his bat as he spoke, "I hope it will turn out so," siid Mr. Brush. "Rosa." gid I for I had often ad dressed him by his first name "do yoa happen to know that your nncle made a will in yonr favor?" J "No," he replied, coolly. "You don't?" "No. I don't know that he did so. Ha told me a few days sro that be would. He bad a quarrel with Lucy, who has a violent temper, and he said that I should lx? bis heir. He told me that she did not treat him! with either affection or respect, and was determined tint she should not become wealthy at his death: that's all I know about it." "Then you don't know that he made a will?" "No; I never saw him alive after tbat Tuesday morning, I think." When the coroner arrived, we pro ceeded to Edwards' house, where the usual inquest was held. The country physician testified tbat death had resulted from a frac ture of the skull with some blunt in strument A, neighbor one or two men who found tbe body testified that be! found it near by a round stone, of three pounds weight, stained with ; tdood. I testified concerning the will. Ross Edwards attain admitted that i his uncle told him that he wonld f make such a will; that be knew he often changed his mind: yet he de-! nied that he had any knowledge of the murder. "Where were you tbe early part of Tuesday night?" asked tbe coroner eyeing bim sharply. "Lt me see I took a walk across the fields to tbe river, and had a swim. I got back by 9, I think." Iid yoa meet any one on the way to the river or coming back?" .Vr a ennl 'I 1 The verdict of the coroner's jury ..... m DVSMt. I was nnfavorab e to Ross Edwards. and be was taken to Wellington, briefly examined by a magistrate, and committed to jail. I remained behind to see if any new facts could be learned; and it is singular tbat tbe constable and, the coroner, with tbe prisoner, had been aone half an hoc,r before I thought of tbe will; then sought tbe two coun trymen who had discovered the body of Mr. Edwards; and asked: "Were there any indications that he bad been robbed?" "Yes," they both replied; "the pockets were turned wrong-side out." "What! was tbe inside pocket of bis coat turned wrong-side out?" "Yes; and a memorandum book lay on tbe gr.und, nearly covered with dust." "Did yoa see anything looked like a will a good sized paper?" "No; noibiog but the memorandum book: it had a little money inside. We handed it over to Lucy, just as Herald. we found it. Here was a new and (singular feat ure of tbe case. Where was the will? Had Uoss Edwards been soiPc'ed. "J instantly stnpid as to take it with him after! ran away; whil- rsy committing the murder, to make sure thrown violently to the a: of it? If so. it coul.l probablv be j found in tbe room be occupied at the ! tavern, or even on hrs person; and j that would b? a piece of evidence i that would establish bis enilt berond a doubt. An, now euort-si2Ctea men are j wben they commit crime." I mused, "Even tbe shrewdest of criminals are i sure to leave some clue." i I hastened back to Wellington, and found Mr Brush. "Did you search him?'' I "Yes." he replied, "I took asked, all his and a j effects knife, pipe, tobacco. packet book with Ef:een doliars and twenty cents in it " "Nothing in tbe shape of a will?" "No "Had he any opportunity to throw! anything away after his arrest?" No, I am certain of that, I watch-i ed him like a cat. ' "Then set out a search warrant and we will gr, to the Cross Iloads ; an( ae l,K'k u n'!' room at the tavern.'' This was done at once, and we wpnt to thf f'roiia !trtHj hr aftpr. noon, when we made a careful exam ination of Ross Ed wards' room, and evervtbing in it. No will was found. nor did any of his clothes show marks of blood. "He must have been more cun ning than I gave him credit for," I remarked to Mr. Brush as we mount ed our horses to ride back to Wel lington. "Where can tbat will be." Within a month the County Court was in session, and Ross Edwards was tried for murder. Yes, and to; the astonishment and indignation of f everybody, be was acquitted.

Lucy was rather a handsome young lady, not over twenty-Jwo, with black eyes and a clear complex ion. Her manner was candid and earnest, and I was soon convinced tbat if her father had not been de ranged, she at least believed him to be s, and I rea lity a?reed to take the case. We were in consultation half an hoar in reference to what witnesses should be summoned to testify to tbe old mau's eccentricities of character, and she had risen to go, wben I said: "Why tow forgetful I Lave been! unless the will is produced, there is no use contesting it." ' Why, I have it!" she replied. To my cstonishmeat, she deliber ately drew from her pocket and band ed me a legal paper, which I imme diately recognized as the missing will. " ' j " here did vau get this?" I ask ed, almost with vehemence. A puzzled look came over her face a dash then she turned death ly pale. "Where did yoo get this?" I a?ain demanded, as a fearful thought flash ed across my mind. She tottered a few steps, and sank trembling into a chair, and, covering her livid face with ber hands, ejacu lated: "Merciful! heaven!
