The Committee are very desirous of having this Province fully represented at the forthcoming Exhibition, especially in respect to tho>e articles of natural production which are likely to become staples of export. The method of dressing and improving these articles is the next mo:-t important subject. Any information furnished on this head will be highly appreciated, and will materially assist the Committee with the objects in view. Specimens of Natural History And information relative to Arts and Science are also required, especially such as shall exhibit the Geology ami Mineralogy of this Province. The Committee recuminc.v.l that a label should be attached by exhibitors to i very article intended for exhibition, describing locality where procurable, or manufactured, and quantities likely to be obtained, nnd probable cost. j It is the intention of the Committee to hold an | Exhibition in Auckland, of the collection, before j transmitting it to Otairo, at which premiums will be i awarded for articles eon-idi-red of .-uilicient merit. The commission nominated by His Excellency the Governor, have intimated that they will be prepared to receive articles on and after the first day of October next, and have iixed the 12th of December i..s the latest date on which articles can be received ; the collection from Auckland would therefore require to be shipped early in November. The Committee have fixed the 20th day of October as the latest date at which articles can be received in Auckland. As it is in contemplation by some members of the Committee and likewise by the Hon. Secretary to j proceed with the collection, with a view of a proper ' supervision and bringing prominently under the no- | tice of visitors the manufacturers and products generally of this Province : a favourable opportunity is thereby offered to manufacturers and others of intro- | ducing any articles with which they may entrust the Committee to exhibit. The Committee earnestly trust that every effort will be made in furnishing a complete collection of articles manufactured and produced in this Province; and as thc-y are fully impressed with the importance of Exhibitions generally, and the latye amount of I benefit resulting therefrom, they confidently antici- | pate that new resources of trade will open up in the j export of many articles which are now manufactured ; by the aid of machinery and otherwise to a consider- ' able extent in this Province. I The Committee request that intending exhibitors ; will forward to the Secretary in writinar with as little j dehy as possible, a list of the articles intended to be prepared for exhibition, with the amount of space (superficial area) required : also the wall space; as the Ist of May is the hitc.-t date allowed by the Now j Zealand Commission for receiving applications for !

Committee will hold themselves responsible i for the safe custody and delivering of all articals in j Otago, free of r.c'st: the disposal of them after the ! close of the Exhibition is left discretionary with ex- | hibitors.
