A late issue of the Motcow Gazette states Ibat the National Exhibition at Moscow is to be postponed from 1880 to 1881, in con--sequence of the inability of Russian manufacturers to prepare goods for show in to short •n interval as is now allowed them. The work of erecting the building will, however, go on unabated.
