Among the impressive paintings it thfi Art Gallery "Waiting for Mon te/uma" by Tavsemier. It derives it interest from the pathetic tradition o the simple Axtec people , who are hen represented as looking forward to the coining of him who was to be theii Messiah , a dream rudely broken ant dispelled by the conquering and mer cenary Spaniard. It is somewhat re markable that artists in all ages have drawn their most interesting subjects from the religious traditions of the people , and as in the "Last Supper , ' the work before us illustrates one oi the most affecting incidents or tradi tions of the people who , until disturb ed by the incursions of a "more relig ious race , " are believed to have lived in the devoted practice of the best principles of all religions , observing the golden rule , and ever repaying the vindictive and monstrous cruel ties of the bigoted and blood-thirsty invaders with offices of kindness and mercy. At least this picture impress es the spectator with such an estimate of the character of the Aztecs. Far different in scene and senti ment is Mignot's "Niagara , " the large canvas painting of an American won der by an American artist. Ilere power , majesty and beauty are blend ed ; mountains of seething waters , whose irresistible plunge over the lofty ledge to the awful depth below , startle the beholder , reassured and composed when he sees the foaming billows changing into gentle waves , flowing peacefully away , crowned and encir cled by a thousand different rainbow hues. Louis Remy Mignot , the artist , although an American , spent most of his life abroad , and died in London fifteen years ago , leaving this immor tal imaije of the eternal Niagara as a rich legacy to Ins - countrymen and the world. In the contemplation of what is really beautiful and instruct ive here , the regret that the whole people are unable to see and study them , is always uppermost in the cor respondent's mind ; about as profita- bje an investment as the government cutfidTiave made would have been an appropriation to have leased the rail roads three months to carry every one to the Exposition free of charge.for after bread and butter are secured of what value is money as compared with knowledge and mental cultiva tion 'i But let us stop moralizing and go over to the states. o "By their fruits we shall know them , " is , I believe , the way it reads in the Bible , and it is thus that the several states make themselves known in this Exposition. In this way , our most southern state , Florida , is pro claiming to the world her matchless character and advantages. There is but one Florida , and the Orange is her Queen , with a most attractive co terie of attendants the fig , lemon , pine-apple , grape , fruit , lime , etc. , while every vegetable , berry , and vine known to the world , flourish in her genial soil and climate , not to men tion sugar-cane , cotton and many other crops. Thousands of northern people have founded pleasant winter residences in "The Italy of America , " and it' is a rare thing to hear of any one who is dissatisfied with his invest ment. A newspaper paragraph re cently noticed the fact that 'Rev. Charles Beecher , of Elmira , N. Y. , had been down there recently , gather ing his orange crop , while his sister , ilso , Mrs. Stowe , spends her winters gathering and enjoying the fruits of ber fine plantation in the same state , together with hundreds of others from the eastern and other northern states. The influx of people seeking homes in Florida is very large , her cheap lands , rare productions and mild cli mate , having charms which few people ple can resist , after a brief , acquaint- ince with them. To the man of limit ed means wishing to make a certain investment , no states offer greater op portunities than the peninsula. While : he climate is such as to make living comparatively cheap and easy , the lature of her products is such that ; he demand constantly keeps pace tvith the increased supply , and so long is a first-class orange sells for five ; ents , there is no danger of a glut in ; he market ; even a really good apple , ifter centuries of cultivation , cannot je bought in New Orleans to-day , for .GSS , while the best oranges on sale lere , also bring GO cents per dozen. Besides , such is the constantly increas- ng demand for winte ; residences and jranfje 3 groves in Flonda , that so soon is one is established in any fairly good pcality , it can be readily disposed of it usually double its cost. Thegrow- ng of figs , lemons , pine-apples , ber- ies and early vegetables , is likewise rery profitable , as the state's exhibit jere slvows ; grain and grasses of all - ( CONCLUDED OX EIUIITJI V E R Y B O D Y > _ IV VN W > > XV. jrQ _ ) J/Cj * ' LxA/TOUR.E FOR Studebaker and Moline WAQONS , JOHN DEERE PLOWS , , Etc.
