THE EXPOSITION FAILURE.

A Vienna dispatch of the 14th gravely states that the exhibition has decidedly outlived its interest, and can hardly leave any result more remarkable than its enormous financial deficit. There has been blundering, and the usual Austrian unreadiness from the start. The elements have conspired against the show, and the hotel-keepers have only seconded them. What both left to be done was affected by the appearance of the cholera, and though the disease has entirely left the city, so have the visitors to the exposition. It now only remains to transform the big shed of glass and iron into the central feature of a pleasure garden, like its predecessor in London, and to write "Failure" against the most recent of international shows. The Vienna experience has many instructive lessons to our Philadelphia friends, who are now puzzling over the plans for the Centennial show of 1876, and it is to be hoped the warning against killing the goose that lays the golden eggs will not be thrown away upon them. The scandal growing out of the row between Minister Jay and General Van Buren might have added some interest to the show among the Americans present.
