There is one pleasure in this world which , unlike the others , is strengthen ed by indulgence that of looking upon beautiful pictures. We gaze and gaze , depart and come again , to drink in the lights and shades , and beauties of the painter's wondrous art. So it is with the crowds who daily throng the Art Gallery of the Exposition from morn ing till night , a continuous stream of visitors are going and departing from this attractive resort. It may be that there is nothing so extraordinary in the collection , but what there is there , has the remarkable power to draw a full house every day , and the mention of a few pieces may not be without interest to your readers. "Bracingup"asmall painting , about 12x24 , attracts much attention , as its wonderful realism touches a tender chord in the memory of many a specta tor , who recalls the tremulous mornings experienced after being out with the boys I It is the picture of a vigorous old toper unsteadily pouring an "eye- opener" into a glass , giving it mean while a look of most comical satisfac tion , his only companion a cat , sleeping quietly on her chair. Thomas Hill has a larger painting entitled "The Last Spike" representing the act of uniting the Union and Central Pacific railways in I860 , which contains many life-size figures of the persons present on that memorable occasion , including the since noted Sanford , who holds the silver sledge with which the gulden spike was driven , while mounted on a ladder in ihe distance stands a telegraph opera- ; or ready , at a signal , to flash the news of the completed connections to all the cities and towns of the land ; among the group of spectators are Indians , section men , and the inevitable station oafer. Like all visitors , your correspondent pendent will often be lured to the Gal- ry , but at present must go over to the ' states , " and fill an appointment with friend. CALIFORNIA AT NEW ORLEANS. The older reader will remember how , : hat forty years ago , California was scarcely heard mentioned in the United States , and if read of at all only as a 'ar-off country , a sort of desert land in- labited by barbarians and pirates , among whom life and property were dis regarded and unsafe. Nor was it till eng in ' 49 and 50 , that Americans knew that there was such a country. Then , and for years after , it was look ed upon as a mere sterile mining camp , .productive of nothing but gold , and even that in uncertain quantities , in the pursuit of which disappointment was the rule and success the exception. Who ever in 1850 or even in later years , had predicted that California would be come in his generation , one of the first agricultural states in the Union , might well have been arrested on the charge of lunacy. Yet here today she presents herself in the World's Exposition , not only as one of the first agricultural states of our Union , but challenging the oldest states and countries as a horticultural ticultural section of the world , and com peting even with the West Indies in the quality and excellence of her semitropical - tropical fruits. Her exhibit here , made By the Southern Pacific railroad compa ny , is one of marvelous richness and va in her exhibit every variety of grain and seeds occupy a leading place , the whole crowned with the heavy corn stalks 18 feet high , and samples of wheat and flour than which there never have been better produced , having more than 3,000 specimens from every part of the great state. One of her private riety , and of such general interest to the whole country that your correspond ent has given it much attention , as the promised completion of the Ship Rail way across the Isthmus , adds increas ed interest to the entire Pacific Coast , citizens , in order to aid in making known the excellence o'f his state as an agri cultural garden , ( Gen. Jno. Bidwcll , of Biitte county , ) 1ms a vast private ex hibit of grains , vines , fruits , nuts , etc. , his own production. There are over I 150 samples of grains in the sheaf from the State University , in this particular excelling any of the other colleges of the older states . In this display is in cluded hemp , ramiu , flax , wheat , etc. There is shown also a model of the cel ' ebrated Young harvesting machine in use in no other country , because of its adaption only to great grain fields. With this machine four men and six- OS : ( ( CONCLUDED ON EIGHTH I-AGE. ) LA/TO U RRTTR'S FOR Studebaker and Moline WAGONB , BA . JOHN DEERE PLOWS , STOVES , TINWARE , HARDWARE , Etc.
