NEW ZEALAND INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION, CHRISTCHURCH. Those that wi.-h to be represented at the International Exhibition, to be held in Christchurch in March next, should inform us of their intentions. We have been connected with all the International Exhibitions held in the colonies. At the late Adelaide Exhibition, we represented 60 exhibitors, for which we received 10 gold medals, 49 first, and one second awards, three of which were New Zealand firms, (D. Strang, and J. T. Martin, Invercargill ; and T. Bevan, Wellington). Our plan is to represent the exhibitors, transact their business, fix the exhibit in its space, attend to the judging of 1 exhibits, and anything necessary ' while the. Exhibition remains open. At the close repack and send their goods back, or sell them, or duplicates thereof i f required. It is very inconvenient for exhibitors to come up to the Exhibition and fix their exhibits, which amount to an expense, besides the loss of time much they must necessarily expend on them. Then again the exhibitors have a benefit, they have no trouble of getting space, They let us knowhow much is required, we get it for them as we have a large amount granted to ns. We fix &c, the exhibits on a better space than if they applied themselves. Our terms , are moderate. We specially caution the public against giving their exhibits to so called exhibtion agents, who have been the rounds of all the Exhibitions, and run exhibitors into debt and other difficulties. —Albert Manners and Co., British and Colonial Manufacturers’ Agent.
