THE EXHIBITION.

A meeting of the chairmen of the varioue Exhibition Committees will be held in thf> office, Hereford street, tonight, at eight o'clock. At the meeting of the Domain Board yesterday, Mr Coop"er inquired whether .the Exhibition Committee had made any application to the Board for' permission to use a site for the erection of the Exhibition buildings. Th& site had been selected by a committee, and there were reports as to the building being erected in.the North: Park. But co far as he remembered, beyond an application made some time ago, which stood over. for went of sufficient information, no application, by the Exhibition Committee had been made to the Board for a cite for the proposed building. The chairman (Mr MtirrayAynslcy) said that Mr Cooper woe\perfectly right in hie facts. So far as he understood the Exhibition Committee were not ready yet to put a formal application before them. He had seen a map at the Exhibition offite that day, from which he gathered that they required some 120 acres, or nearly the whole of the North Park. At present, however, there was nothing before the Board. Copies of the official notice (prospectus) and niles and , regulations can be obtained upon application to the secretary (Mr E. J. Righton) at the Exhibition offices. Hereford street, in time for the 'Frisco mail, which leaves. Christchurch to-day.
