Abstract
THE meeting of the International Congress, of which we published the programme a few months ago (vol. x. p. 267), has been postponed, owing to the large number of demands from foreign parts for room in the Exhibition. It will not take place in the beginning of spring as intended orginally, but will be opened on the 1st of August, perhaps by the President of the Republic, who seems to be deeply interested in the success of the enterprise. It will be held in the Pavilion de Flore. This magnificent building was left unfinished when the Empire was upset, and could not be burned by the Communists, as the woodwork had not been begun. It is now being decorated most tastefully, and will be inaugurated by the Congressionists.
