N. C. I HE NEW ORLEANS EXFO-UTfON. The opening of. tho ; New Orleans World's Exposition : is an event of importance to the whole country, but especially to the South. . Industrial expositions may be said to be among the institutions of this country, and within the past decade they ' have grown amazingly in importance and magnitude. The Atlanta Exposition, outside of the industrial features of State fairs, was the first venture of this kind in the South, and that "prov ed a success in proportions and re suits far exceeding the anticipations of its most sanguine ; promoters. : So with the industrial exposition in our own State the past fall, which was - a marvelous collection of our State pro ducts and resources. - i Originally the New Orleans Expo sition was intended to be an exhibit of cotton productions and implements and machinery for; the production and manufacture of cotton, but the interest manifested in it, and the de mand that it be made more than this caused a. change of programme, and It was resolved to make it a world's grand, industrial display. And this it is. Not only this country, but sev eral E iropean countries, nations of the far east, and nearly all the Amer ican States in the central and south ern portions of the continent have representative: exhibits i there. : The grounds contain 247. acres. : The main bnilding is 1,378 feet long, by 705 feet. wide. The Government and State building is 5, feet by 565. The first covers 33, th& second 11 acres, orticultrai hall jp $00, feet' by 194. Macjanery extension 350 feet by 129- Art gallery 250 by 100 -r the exicari building 300 by the factories and mills 850 by 120.; the Crand Rapids furniture building 171 by 172.

' Sherman Rakes Oat of the Dust an Old - ; Letter of Alex H. Stephens. . '.- Washington, Dec 16 The New .York Herald today contains a hith erto unpublished letter of Alexander HJ -Stephens, furnished by General Sherman, to show thac ' Davis was suspected of despotic tendencies. Gen. Sherman explains his possession of the letter as follows: -,, v. h ij-?-r St. Louis, Mo., Dec. 7. 1884. The following is a true copy of an original letter, loaned 'me by-Dr. , H. O. Bob, bins, of .Creston, Ogle county, I1L, who was formerly surgeon of the one hundred and first Illinois infantry, who obtained it on the 'premises of Mri H. Y. Johnsdb, at Sandy Grove, Ga., in tne autumn of 1864 j - ? : W. T. Sherman, GeneraL Mr. Stephens was replying to a letter from Mr, Johnson, which rather severely accused him-, of not giving Davis proper support. After stating his opinion of Davis' policy, Stephens says:- . v As for Mr. Davis. I repeat again, I have no - feelings of antipathy, much less ofliosjiility. . What Opinions you may think I entertain of him, as you intimated,-1 know nothing, but I have no hesitancy in stating to you freely and frankly, and most confidentially, what my opinions of him are. -They are much more akin to suspicion and jealousy; than of animosity or hate. While I do not, and never have re garded him as a great'man or states man on a' large scale, or a man of any marked genius, yet I have regarded him as s man of good intentions, weak and vacillating, timidpetulant, peevish, obstinate, buVjnpt firm. I Wb now beginning to doubt his good intentions. . - -r - I say doubt, for after watching him Closely I am not satisfied in my o.wh mind, nor cave 1 arrived at any con clusion,' whether some of his short comings are to be attributed to weak ness or bad purposes. - These are my , . i J . a : . real seniim- 'nis, ana my reasons tor them are thase: .Since bits first eleva tion to pov er he has changed many of his formf r States rights principles, as in the ctse of conscription: His whole policy, the organization and discipline of the army, is perfectly consistent with the hypothesis that he is aiming at absolute powers Not a word has come from him of military usurpation in the orders for martial law by Bragg and VauDorn. In the whole system of passports and pro vost marshals, which is utterly wrong and without authority of law, after' all that may be said or written by myself and others- against these usurpations, not one word has escaped Mr. DaVis showing his disapproval of them, v , . The paragraph which stamps the letter as genuine beyond a doubt con tains the following characteristic lan- S"ae: ... - ... . "liow you couia nave got tne ims pression, or entertained the thought, that I had an antipathy to Mr. Davis, or "was hostile to him, is strange and unaccountable to me. You surely have heard me in conversation speak of his weakness and imbecility, -but certainly ., with ' no bitterness or feel ing, and what I have said on this sub ject has always heen more in sorrow than anger. I had no more feeling of resontment toward nimtor tnese than I had toward the defects and in firmities of my poor old blind and deaf dog that you saw when you were here. Poor old Bis, he is dead now and gone to his long rest. Peace to his ashes and honor td his memory. While I deplore his infirmities, I cer tainly have no feelings of unkindness to him." - . 7 , " ; -: In conclusion he makes this refer ence to Qeorgia's attitude toward' the Davis administration: - v : f 'But I must add, in conclusion,- that you - are, thmk, mistaken in supposing that the late movement in Georgia, ww Ktarted with any view toward the orsanisatiQtf of a party against Mr. Davis or his admimstra tion. I know aU about t-that move ment.

It is stated that the first prize ($5,000) of the- Blackwell Tobacco Companies Premium was won bv . an Atlanta firm. We spoke of Mr, Harris as the only survivng member of CoLTom Polk's troop of volunteers who met Lafayette at the Virginia line ! and escorted him to the South Carolina line. He was passed from State to State in that manner. Rise up and rectify friend Hi We had reference to a communication' that was printed in the Home-Democrat. Ob. ; : Imasiaaiion as a Medicine. Fhlladelpbla Press, . , ... ... The administration of "totallv inerfc- substances to delude tha patient into the belief that he is taking medicine is a common practice. The efficacy of bread pills is proverbial. Pellets of bread, when given to a patient with the remark that they are a cer tain powerful emetic, nave been kno wn to produce an instantaneous effect.1 It is even said that a person drinking sarsaparilla with suicidal intent, imagining that it is so much laudanum, might easily die1. The vigorous concurrence of the will with the action of the medicine is'one of the best allies a physician or surgeon can have. ( . . A remarkable illustration of the imagination as a doctor was made a few ; months " aero in this citv. A patient was afflicted with a collection of hysterical symptoms and disorders of the nerves, which are usually cured by a dangerous operation,- in volving the laying open of. the whole abdominal., region. .. A, number-of books treating more or less on the efficacy of the operation were thrown in her way, and finally she -was told that it was to be performed. Her physician, who suspected - that the disease was imaginary, made ample preparations for deceiving her On a certain day four surgeons went to the nouse armed with big bags, supposed to contain instruments; The patient was put under the influence of ether, after a good deal of parade, and a long incision was made, just about skm deep, ffhen- the incision was bandaged up, and tho patient was kept for a long time under morpiia. Elaborate dressings were gone through with every day. Although no operation w as performed, the pa tient was "completely cured. t Acceptina Urinkinfi: Fountain. Dr. H. T: Coggswell, of San Frans Cisco, whose ambition is to give to every' city in the United States a drinking fountain, has offered one to the city of New York. It will cost, Alderman Miller told , the common council, $8,000 to $10,000. Dr. Coggs well imposes the condition, that he be permitted to select the sites of his fountains, and in this case has , se lected a spot in Central Park, near" the Fifty-ninth street entrance. . He also requires that the city furnish ice for the fountain during the summer. The Doctor will also contribute $200 toward setting the fountain up. The common council accepted the gift with thanks. : - a Down rows Herctut, - HavlnB nassed several sleeDless nlzhts. disturb ed br tne agonies and cries of a suffering child, and becoming convinced that Mrs. Winslowt Soothing Syrup was Just the article needed, pro cured a supply for the child.
