as th?' Exposition has ban the treat pn.le and hop
of tho city for nearly two years past, and will curie]
a larire proportion of tho population if the.
do not ruin their chances by too grea
uipaiity. I am a littlo -__M_""P0__-t-_ in tho ur? hi
tectural effect ot tin? Kxpo.sitioti liuihli'ig. Ol
uppr.iin hiiiK Vienna \.m can only seo tho broiu
fiinnel-sliivped r?s>f of tho Rotunda risine over th
tres of the. l'rat'r. It, apparent bight is ____ida
ably lessened by __? great span, and the two wing.
with their c.iiuliiiied letiL-th of half a mile, increas
this effect. Tho location, between tho shady av
enues of the J'r.iNT. aud siUToiiiidcil by its groic
and .'ni"? y meadows, yet almost touching th,
northern suburb of Vienna, is all that could b,
tlesire?!. It is boHot than Hyde Park or tho Chatni

almost everything that has been olbri'd. with n,
sums of stinting or crowding anywhere. The ar
rangement, also, while le s artistic than that of th<
Trem h Exposition of VMS, is completer and iu<?rt
convenient for the exhibitors.
I have jiwt returned from u final inspection of th?
Hall of Industry, M it is otticinlly styled, proi ?.hi
|0 tin' opening. The work which his been do ne u
tiie In.'? time ?lins is ani.i/ing. Wh. n 1 saw tin
(MM 1."tunda, last Sattinlav, lloorh ?.*, vacant, and
ilieary. Iviuccly thought it possible that it < iil.l

Bpriiir.iii_r fruni irre? n tuif, has hen evok. d, with
the piorna' of a fountain in tin ir ini?l?t. Pavilions

for tho representatives of the various departments
who aro pri\ilei?e?l to occupy them, and one can
already Rt-M how the out?-r encirclinji belt of Indict.
will biiKhteii th, so dark triangular slices
of the sterner and uglier sex. Ye?(.r
day ?so this moniinc's tooOTt stato ?two
companies of soldiers inarch, ,1 into tho
lonj. building for machinery, and threw out all
tho boxes and planka they found, regardless of tho
protcetsnf the exhibitors. It was rumonsl that a
battalion would _N cmployc-i in tho main building
tonlay; but this wan, doubtless, only a menace, in?
tended |o work on the jaded souls of the foreii.iiiT.-i,
as if they bad not alrerufy doDO their ?______ to DO
prepaicd. I stayed until C o'clock, when nothing
moro waa possiblo than tho clearing away of the
refuso. Homo countries have half arranged their
contributions; no one wholly. Germany, Franco,
and England make a partial show in the west aisle;
Austria? ami Italy rather leas; while America and
Brazil, at tho end, cover their emptiness with a dis?
play of emblems and flags. Even this drapery over
our present nakettncsB might have been wanting but
for tho i-eal of Mr. Reck, the architect of the Com?
mission, who took the work in hand.
Very few, if any, of the outer buildings are en?
tirely complebsl, and the inspection of them, on ac?
count of the loose gravel through which ono must
wade, will be somewhat of a task for a few weeks to
come. Hut the southern portal, by which the Em?
peror and his royal guests will enter, offers a liiiisb-xl
avenue of approach. |____fc__l by fresh turf, flowers
and fountaiua. If the rotunda had an r-lovation of
100, cr even .V) feet more, the effect would be very
imposiutr, for tho lilwral spaco allowed Ls grand in
itoclf. However, the predictions which havo been rife
throughout nonnauy for the past month, that th"
opening must of noceuaity Ihi pobtpoued, will
not bo fullilled. Nor will it, I am now
satisfied, havo tho imp?)veri_h?'d and imperfect ? har
acter which seemed likely, only a week ago. Con?
sul, ling the unexpected dolay in tho completion of
tho great building, and in tho arrival ami unloailiug

lind that most spectators shared the im?
pression which the opening ceremonies made
on myself?that of their simplicity, gooxl taste, and
entire appropriateness. Mahornmed was fond of
saying: "Hast?, is of the Devil," _____ in this in?
stant?) haste has done good service. The toiat
achieved and the display made are fully eqnal to all
which the French Ex posit ion was ftbk to show on
the dav of its inauguration. The great building
itself?except a few of th? court, whi? h have hem
constructed between the transept*, at the IBB. "i"
menf seems to be linished ; and the unpacking of
the articles destined for the vacant spies, will h*
carried on without incunibering the pnw-agee. The
? n t. ni wing, devoted mai.ily to Austria, Hungary,
Russia, and the Orient, is further advan.ed than the
western, .vliero England i. not half re pre.?, -it? ?1, and
the United States and Brazil scarcely at ail.
I made a general t'.nr of inspection this liter?
noon, and satisfied mys4 If that hy the end of the
month very few of the promised"glori?? of the 1. \hi
hitiou will fail. Biaea tin: tir?-t confusion has been
overcome, the work will advance much MM rap

kmftSi p4Ts?ins present during the aft..nioon, many
of them drawn hy a false report that St muss's hati.l

is an imitation of the fountain of

closed against,ine except one. where I'iloty's great
picture I'M hy 18 fate) I f tht Triumph of (i.rmauicus
leans against the wall, and tho works of modem
sculptors resemble the antique, at least, in having
lost hand.-!, arms, or legs in the transport and un?
packing. The garden court beyond is all turfed and
planted, needing only a little moro rain ami sun.
The hand, oiuo buildings on either side, called the
l-iliibition of Am..t< urs ? private coll. etions of
arms, armor, brii-a brie, furniture, and ornamental
art?were filled with such a gang of sprinklers
and sw.i pet. that. I did i ot attempt an entrain ?.

part of th?; F.xpo-ition,however, will oventnally far

Bade, The Americio restaurant? and bars ?ire open,
having got the start of all others except the I'll- n
brewery. Pti?M are .graduated, according to the re?
ports ?>f countrymen, by those of the Viennese res
t.r.ii.-mts which, it i. needless to say, aro far from
mud? rate. I hope they represent a better than our
average cui-iie.
I must coireet one or two inaccuracies in the re?
port of tho opening. Most of the corre.-poud?rnt_?,
even of the London press (usually so correct in Court
matter..', wen* in doubt concerning some of tlie royal
ladies in the imperi ?1 cortege. My authority wa? a
young gentleman belonging l<> the diplomatie corps,

I diplomatie ladv. whoso opportunities lor knowing
could not be ?lue.ti i.n-tl, in -i | ted that the Crown

Last evening there was a gorgeous state dinner at
tbe Imp? rial Hofburg. All the high titled gne-t
were present, wiih tba diplomatic corps, tho Com

The struggle for space and location among the Amer?

otherwise. Paymaster Cunningham of the U. ?S.

very didicult to lind a competent man for
tho place. Mr. Pickering, tho T.ngmeer, and
Mr. Re? k, tho architect of tho Commission, h;i\?'
been untiring in their labors, and what little has
been practically accomplished within tho Aiiieii. an

perceptible crowd in tho streets to-day, not that the
?Inly arrivals havo much increased, but the first

abroad entices everybody out of doors, Francis
Joseph, with his uncle, tho ex-Emperor Ferdinand,
drove out this morning, and. as I writ?, he and the
Empress have just gono by, on horseback, on their
way to tho Prater. The line of carriages must he
several miles iu length, but they aro mostly the
lirures which ended their strike this morning, and
are occupie?l by the holidaying exhibitors. It is
time, now, that your correspondent should also
begin his holiday. There are few of the ?lass who
