WILLIAM F. EVE, Judge City Court and Ex-Off. Commr Roads and Revenue, Richmond Co. Ga Atfpst WM. D'A. WALKER, Clerk Oct 15 C Fico-lii [Bill HOW LONDON—The Franco-British ex | hlbltlon is peculiarly interesting to: those who have lived long enough tc 1 have seen the development of the ex- j position idea. To most of us the ugly palace at 1 Sydenham Is very familiar, and noth ing marks the change in taste ann development of art more clearly than 1 a trip to that which was once consid- j ered one ot the seven wonders of the; world. The monster conservatory gleams j on the hills, deplorable In its ugliness hut strangely significant as a land mark of the taste of the early Vic torian era. and not of the taste only but of the manners and customs of j a time which now seems to us re- j mote. If any one will take the trouble to | go there and hunt out the features which formed sonic of the objects of interest in 1851. they ran verify the extraordlnarv change that has taken place. The statues of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert which stand in the en trance will be one of the first indlca-1 tlons, for no one would erect such es-1 ltgtos In any building today. There are still a few relics which have survived the years of various objects of Interest In those days One was deemed singularly comic j and amusing, and consists ol a large ! glass case of stuffed animals dressed 1 as human beings, a dog dressed as a dentist extracting teeth, s rabbit In a 1 red hood led away by a cunning fox a rabbit clad as an old woman, and ’ so on anu so on It Is enough to bring trnrs to one's | ♦ yes to remember that the sides of: those who on this >pa*s case 1 shook with laughter at what was then j considered a mor extraordinary Joke ; What 's it that ha* made the dll ference? Why Is that the mtnd of tin ' simplest today Is more subtle, and i TUESDAY, SEPT. 15 that such crude obviousness wo\'d fall to appeal now to the risible fan. u.ties of a bunday school child? Education has of course done some thing, but the intangible thing which we call civilization has done more and taste in all directions lias caused’ life to become far more intricate and complicated. Whether this is an ad vantage or not, I cannot say, but from the artistic point of view, undoubted ly we have gained immeasurably. indeed it is almost difficult serious- I> to believe, as we look down the great aisle of the glass building, that th's ever could have been coisldeT ed the glory of a nation, and yet it was so on the day when Queen Vic toria in the full biazo of a mid-dav run opened it with the Prince Coii- f OTt > dr essed in a pink silk gown, cut •ow on the shoulders, in ftfil evening dress. The simplicity of it all brings a smile to our faces today, and al most a lump in our throats' ’ ! hen I can vaguely remember the first great French exhibition whero the introduction of native villages and bouses was first made, and where the little Japanese ladies in their reed hut were the wonder and admiration of Paris. But even there the externals of the exhibition were still crude and ugly, and Indeed I do not Relieve that the idea of creating a beautiful city in which to hold the exhibits of the world was ever thought of until Chi cago opened her gates, and, cradled on the bosom of the great lake, lay that dream which we shall not see again of artistic excellence and archi tectural efficiency. Then we had the exhibition in Paris again, infinitely improved and vastly more beautiful from the fact that America had led the way, and there were exhibits in these build ings which were quite unrivalled for their individual bftauty. None of us will readily forget the tapestry from the Escurial, with Us exquisite entwining of gold and col ors, the purity of its design and the beauty of its conception. And now we have the Franco-Brit ish Exhibition in London, hideous in architecture, vulgar In every detail as regards the buildings, and yet in teresting in many ways on account of the fact that so much is gathered there which is so distinctly individual to both countries. Probably that which is the great est revelation internationally is the art of England. Among the French it has always been the fashion to say that England has no art, and that English pictures are not worth con sidering; but with the frang open mindedness which constitutes a cha racteristic of the French, they have admitted that they have discovered English art. Gainsborough, Reynolds and Con stable are revelations to a great num ber of French people. The louvre, with its three thousand paintings, where every school is represented, has very few English pictures, and the Luxembeurg has but three. But the Fiench are awake to their mistake, and art is too real and too living a science with them for them not to be fully willing to rectify their ideas. Perhaps the greatest contrast of all to be found in the exhibition is in the Machinery Hall. It would be quite useless for an ameteur to at tempt to describe the marvels which are their exhibited, marvels only too well known to the Americans, who are largely authors of these wonders. There Is an old man who still lives at the Crystal Palace, who was a young mechanic in the days of the great exhibition of 1851 and who will still fell you, that the reaping machine was almost the greatest wonder of that show. He says that he can recollect very well two gentlemen who came to see this novel invention. On e of them was an American and one an English man. "Well, you see,” said the American, "our young men are teaching your young men a few wrinkles!" and the Englishman laughed. As they walked away the man asked who they were, and learned that -one was Mr. Dick ens and the other Mr. Horace Greeley. But prohaiy the most extraordinary change is to be found in those great glass showcases which exhibit femin ine fashions. I do not mean that the poke bonnet and Paisley shawl and crinolin e are no longer to the front, but that what would have been con sidered an elegant and costly dress for a woman in those days would be barely considered tit for a charwo man's Sunday frock in ours. Three thousand guinea sable cloaks, tight clinging garments, with long trains made entirely of ermine, Direc folre dresses embroidered in skilled needlework from head to foot, twelve guinea hats loaded wilh ostrich plumes, the lace, the jewelry, Ihe thousand expensive et cetras which have become necessaries, these all go to prove that life in our time is com plicated by a thousand extravagances which were unheard of in the simpler days of our forefathers. I connot but say that I think a great deal of she enormous expendi ture In dress has been brought abon4 by the rich American who having plenty of money and being as a nils unencumbered by the rails which great estates often entail, has been able to put down more r«a4y money 'upon the luxurb s of life women in other countries and th*efore th* pare has been art going '• *»• others are panting to emulate. Always strain the milk a* soon at possible after It is drawn. After an animal is finished thi ' sooner It I* marketed the better.
