ARCHITECTURE AT THE PARIS EXHIBITION.—A number of English visitors to the Pans Exhibition have adversely criticised the design of the British Pavilion.

Throughout the whole exhibition, there is no "wedding cake” architecture, and every building is expressive of effort and accomplishment of the modern world.
