The grandeur and magnificence of the exno8ition are beyond description, and no pen has yet attemped it with j any hope of success. It is a show. that must be seen lo be appreciated, as it covers an International Exhibition of Arts, Manufactures, and ffroducts of the soil, and the mine, andfit seems to us that this definition is comprehen sive enough to cover the productions of the globe. : j ' , The Exhibition building are situat ed in the upper Western jsnd of the clty7but are immediate connection with the entire steam railway system of the country, wd s Alje are also in iminediaQcmnictntl the street railway system of Philadelphia, the entrances are easily accessible. 1 Within the grounds, as one of the features of the exposition, a narrow guage, double-track steatn railway, three miles in length, has been furn ished with its equipment as a special exhibit. 4 To gather an idea of the ex tent of the exposition the I visitor will -do well to take a ride around the en tire grounds, via this railroad, the fare for which is five cents. aJ3 a furthr aid to the visitor, within the buildings, rolling chairs are hired out by the hour, in which persons can be convey ed into nearly every portion of the building without fatigue, j We do not hesitate to say that the plan of rapid general tours, and inspection of the entire grounds and buildings,- and of returning to places of, special interest, will be found preferable to f-t lie com mon plan of an objectless loitering tour, which will result in .the visitor having no well settled ideabf what he bas seen, and as the distances are im mense, will probably resulUni jiia be ing exhausted before he has traversed the" main buildings.

AGRICULTURAL BUILDING : : is Bituated in the Western portion of the Exhibition grounds. It is 826 feet long and 540 feet wide. It has a main central avenue 70 feet wide, through out the whole length of the building, with cross avenues and aisles. The articles here on exhibition are arrang ed by. classes, and not by countries, all articles of the same class from all countries being together, and at one glance enabling the visitor, to draw an interesting comparison, having the exhibitions of twenty foreign countries, all as many different Ftates before him. Among the most extensive, as well as the most interesting exhibits in this department, is the agricultural ma chines, in endless variety, in active operation, comprising everything used on the farm or plantation, in tillage, harvesting, or preparation for market; manufactured foods of all kiuds, a thousand varieties of fish, with ap proved appliances for pisciculture everywhere gotten up totally regard less of expense, (we recall to mind a reaping and mowing machine made entirely of gold, silver and ebony wood, at an estimated cost of eight thousand five hundred dollars). In this department we have reaping and mowing machines, miiis, threshers, &c, by the acre, and ten thousand other inventions and machines, which have revolutionized the world. We must refer now to HORTICULTURAL UALL which is a handsome brick, iron and glass structure 383 feet long by 193 feet wide. Here the beauties of nat ure and art seem to be combined to ravish the sense of sight. The centre of the Con servatory is,, adorned by an ornate marble fountain, executed it is said by Miss Foley, an American ariist, resi dent in Borne, and eight ornamental fountains adorn its angles. Ornamen tal stairways lead from the vestibule to the galleries, from which a fine view of the interior of the building can be obtained.

James N. Tyner, of Indiana, the new Postmaster .General, in the 'place of Hon. Marshall Jewell, was born at Brookville, Ind., January 17, J826. He became a lawyer by profes sion. From 1857 tO: 1801 he was Secre tary of the State Senate, and in 1860 he waya'BepubUCafl resid6aT.ial eieC tor. 18Cf Wfirsf 1)feckiri6 connec ted with the postoffice system, serving as special agent of the department from that year1 to 1866.

The mercantile agency of Messrs. B. Gi Dunn & Co-have issued their quar? erly '..circular i con taining r th e business etatistiqsj for ;the. United States. The nqmbeV of Ikilures" for' the first six months of this year was 4,600, repre senting $107,000,000, against 3,563 in 1875Llepresenting 176,000,000. Jtfuch tho larger portion of the increase iwnf was ! in the first three months the year, which fact furnishes grbun'd- for'hope1 that the season of greatest peril to commercial credit and stability has passed, and that the pro portion will lessen, as the year goes on. The .protracted depression in business has:taken out most of the houses of insecure or doubtful . position which argely decreases the liability to disas ter among those that are left. . he Herald is first to intimate that Grant should be impeached and . ex claims: "0 for an hour, of Henry 1 What a chance a great , man has .in the Senate ! What an opportu nity to arraign the President for his repeated and shameless violations of the people's will ; for bis tyranny in reducing the Administration to a mere personal machine!" The Hamburg affair suggests to the Charleston (S. C.J Journal of Commerce that if the Radicals would demand of the negroes the same obedience to the laws that they ask of the whites there would be ho occasion for disturbances- Very true ; and if the negroes were not interfered with by Badical emissa ries and encouraged by Federal bayo. nets they would hardly have any de sire to break the law. All the Washington gessip points to the Boss Shepherd and Senators Spen cer ana Lonitiing mnuenits as the causes of the removal of Mr. Jewell. In some respects, it is the most startling of Gen. Grant's freaks. It is not a blow simply at the Reformers and Independ ents of the country, but it strikes right at; the heart of the machine itself, and demoralizes "the men inside politics." Down in Connecticut these sort of peo ple must be awfully solemnized. Poor Schurz I This, from the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, is the unkindest cut of all : "Carl Schurz is on our side this time, but we think we can win the fight, nevertheless." And this from a man who has his editorial sanctum in the penitentiary ! The Gathering Infamy. The cheek of every true man through out the country must have tingled with shame as he read the late news from Washington. Every successive act of this Administration gathers to it a fresh disgrace. Marshall J e well , as an execu tive officer, was the ablest and purest man in the Cabinet: and the only motive which seems to have actuated the President in his ignominious dis missal was one of personal spite. The faithful officer had failed to protect some adherent of the whiskey ring, or had stood m the President s wav when the latter desired to reward some obsequious tool with a place in the department, and he is instantly dis- placed to make room for a more pliant subordinate. It may be that Mr. Jew ell had refused to prostitute the public service, to the interests of party. His high character and well-known integ rity would have led him doubtless to such a course if the proposal had been made; but the action of Fresident Grant was evidently dictated more by personal feeling than any regard for the weiiare oi tne organization oi wnicn he has been the head. This unseemly exhibition is but one of many which have recently fixed thepublic attention, ad must intensify the popular desire for ap. entire change in the administration of public affairs. a . The exclusion irom omce; almost at the same"ihstant ofD. D. Pratt,' com- rnissioner of Internal Revenue, was ap parently from no higher motive. He w;as a man of very different character from Mr. Jewell, and, in our estimation, of much less value to the public service; btit his expulsion was due, it would s4em, not to his efforts, such as they were, to reiorm ana purity tne Amims tration. The downward road, which the Pre sident seems bent upon following, has few impediments, and no one can predict the' depth of disgrace which uiay be reaenea witnm the next nine months Some oi the ' .Republican papers are seeking to serve their s party by fostering the idea that , there, is not the bestof feelingbetweeh the standard- bearer m the political 'campaign and the present incumbent, and that . the latter is not seriously., working to pro mote the party succession, I We sincerely hope that this is true. Whether Mr. Hayes is elected or not, it cannot stand to his credit that he , is the; choice of that circle now dominant at the White House : and we earnestly desire that he will make it more ' and' more apparent as the canvass proceeds that he is not . the . candidate : of tho whiskey ring, or subject to its control. It would be .thousands of votes in. his favor.ifhe'would let it be Understood that he does not accept the overtures of official help-from that quarter ' arid that his success is not to be the perpet uation of a dvnnitv so inseparably iimaea wiin an mat is corrupt ana ais graceiui in puDiiq anairs.

The production of wheat during the fir8tfive years "of" the" present" decde was 1 ,305 ,079,600 bushels; consump tioni 836,911,952 bushels ; seed, 160,270, 064 bushels.. Export, 224,019374. bush els wheat and 83,878,210 bushels as flour. .The average production for the five years' was 261,015,920 bushels ; the average consumption, 167,382,390 bush: els ; the average for export, 44,803,875 bushels wheat " and 16,775,642 bushels as flour. The average supply of wheat in excess of export is five bushels ; the area in cultivation (ayerage for five yWs) was 21,386,709, and the yield per acre 12.2 bushels. - The imports aver aged 1,502,541. bushels, of which three tenths Were exported. The total production of corn for the five years, : 1870-74, vwas 4,961,294,500 bushels; the consumption,- 4,745,892, 370 bushels; seed, 62,833,003 bushels; expert, 146,152;915 bushels com and 6,416,212 bushels as meal; The average produetion was 992,238,000 bushels; consumption, 949,178,474 bushels; seed; 12,566.601 bushels, and the ex portation, 29,230,683 bushels coi n and 1,283,242 bushels as meal. Corn is not imported to any extent. The receipts from the Dominion ayerage 68,864 bushels. The estimated extent of the cultiva tion of the leading crops for the year 1875 was as follows: Acres. Acres. Cereal crops 87,000,000 Of which in maize 44,800.000 Of which in wheat 26,400,000 Hay crops 23,500.000 Cotton . 10,750,000 Orchards, vines, and fruits 4,500,000 Tobacco ' 460,000 Total 133,000,000 The table of exports of wheat for fifty years 1825 to 1875 shows that less than one -fifth of the wheat exports were in the first half of the period, and the aggregate of the last quarter is equal to the total shipment of the preceeding three fourths, Since 1860 there has been a remarkable increase in the export of the whole wheat, which at the close of 1875 nearly equaled the exports of wheat in the form of flour. The total exports of wheat and flour from 1830 to 1875 were 1,062,415,747 bushels, valued at $1,387,806,218. The corn and corn meal exported during the same period amounted to 403,320,810 bushels. The value of the corn exports was $310,568,344. The value for 1875 was $25,748,470. The total production of sugar in Louisiana for twenty-five years was 4,913,591 pounds, and the total supply for that period, including the imports was 23,96095,437 pounds. In 1850 Louisiana produced half the requisite supplies, and reached her maximum of production in 1861. Since that year the domestie supply has been small compared with that of years previous to the war, while the de mand has increased enormously, and now less than one-tenth our wants are supplied at home. The report of the cotton crop for ten years shows an increase since 1868. The largest crop was in 1870, when it reachd 4,352,317 bales, and the price declined in consequence of the large production, as that the value was $44,673,491 less thun that of the medium crop of 1869. The cotton crop ol 1874 was 3,832,yyi bales, the fourth in magnitude during the de cade. The aggregate value of the leading crops, being an average from I860 to 1874, Jinclusive, show that corn is ahead, and hay, not including pastur age, comes secondhand wheat and cotton are nearly equal. The averages are : Corn Hay $549,238,007 $343,111,450 $308,983,272 $308,590,811 $123,876,426 $76,356,914 $34439,800 $23,374,788 $18,695,826 Wheat Cotton Oats Potatoes Tobacco Barley Rye The estimates of January, 1876. give the total number of sheen in the United States at 35,935,300, valuejl at $93,606,318, and of swine 25,726,800, vatuea at 170,WU,484. The average price of swine for all the States was $6 80, and of sheep $2,60. The Southerk Soldiers in Boston.
