HI S Excellency the Governor having been pleased to issue a commission authorising the above-named persons to take the^ necessary %teps for managing and conducting an international exhibiiiou, to be held in Melbourne, the Honorable the, Chief Secretary of Victoria uddres.-ed himself to the Governments of the vari us dependencies of the Crown in Australasia in vil ing I heir cordial co-operation. Highly encouraging replies have been received ; these convey a well-founded assuran c that the l ro,e<t of instil utiuy a series of exhibitions 01 natural products. general in iustries andurt, to be held in tucession iv the several Australasian Colonies, ha- been accepted in a spirit which ac-knowK-dn.es. the truth of the proposition— that such exhibition.-, wouhl ''prove of public advantage alike to all." The Commissioners are conscious, however, that it is not sullie cut to rely solely on the good intentions and proffered support of t c Governments. They deem it right tt> appeal to the public spirit of Ihe dilleretit communities. 'Jhev have now Hie honor, therefore, to invoke the assistance of their fellow subjects, not only ol those who dwell in Victoria, but of thos,e also resident in the other Uritish Colonies in these sea-, to aid them in the furtherance ol the design, and they do so, with the confident expectation that the appeal will be considered worthy of a gener us encouragement. The Commissioners do not propose to demonftra'e by labored arguments the benefits which must arise almost. unbidden from a comprehenMve, well directed organisation, for su< h a purpose, to the inhabitants of these regions, so lavored by Divine Providence — tho3e benefits are self- apparent. I hey desire, however, to impress upon all thou^l.tiul (lid viiersjetic persons the necessity for engaging actively in its ?uppi>rt. An opportunity ior united exertion, such as is i.ow ai or^.ed, is of a character eminently interest ing Exhibitors will be undismayed by the manifold distuibing influences which encumber a competition with the jioj uious and opulent s<>;:ieiie« oi the old world, will be unaileeted by the in merab.e distinctions, wh eh, in the perplexing variety of Eurupiau exhib.tiGiis, call away the muid of the Uhol c irom obj cts purely Colonial.. /UthouJi the contemplated display cannot vie with the splendour ot those whicli excite rivalry of nations, purpo.-es oi the highest utilitarian and social importance, to those immediately conccrne.t ln.iy be thereby served. A st archills: and penctra ing attention may be j concentrated on our mineral treasuies, portions only of the bouiuUt-s- store of which have been hitl.erto brought tolijiht ; — on improved economic methods of w.iininy tlum from the earth, and apl>hing them U> the en.ls lor wiiich they were intended ; — on the sources of wealth which, in their r»w state, abound on ihe surlace" of our toils, in the rivers, an.i in the waters which encircle our coasts; — on the rare excellencies and peculiar devclopineiu,in diflvr.

A iieliUcraie comparative surwy ir.ay be made of the it-suits tlovviiU liom iho aao^lion Ot the liberal arts happily domiciled in these climes, and the exercise of those usciul maiiuiaciures which genius, self-reliance, and perseverance have estaoi.ished 111 lands so auiiubit lor their natural vigorous growth. A diligent compilation of the statistics of the actual products unuot the productive capabilities of tlie different colonies, will toim a most valuable 'Una of imoruiatiou. Such, wiih many other engaging comparisons and combinations, ni;iy occuj»y most profitably the intelligent observation "1 those who a&sociitie UieniselvfS in the undertaking ; while all who enter heartily into the -nubb'will doubtless be compelled to further etiou», conducive to a still •nore extensive and intimate acquaintance of the voioniets with each other, the expuiis.on of the limits of their practical knowledge, and the inJna?e 4 of JliAi' inute-ial piospenty ; tonvmced that ih\ pel ionic recurrence of' tucli opportunities lor, -a mn -able contention are calculated to generate seiauiicnttt of 'mutual respect, and to perpttuate ih«'tse reciprovbl U-flin b s ol ->»teiin and lriendßhip which bliyuld ever ai.m.ate subjects oi the great 'iiu^tion irom winch we are sprung.
