HpHE following letter, from the Seere- .!_ tary in Melbourne of the Paris Universal Exhibition to be held in 1867, is published for general information. E. W. Staffobd. Offices of the Royal Commission, 64 Elizabeth-street, Melbourne, lst'October, 1866. Sib, — Referring to the subject of the several Colonies of Australia forming one Australasian Court at the above exhibition, which has been already brought under the notice of the authorities in each Colony, and favorably received : I have now the honor to submit to your Excellency, on behalf of the Commissioners for Victoria, the importance of taking steps without delay for the purpose of carrying out the above scheme. It will be generally admitted that one of the most important exhibits to be sent from Australia to Paris will be wool, and the accompanying sketch will, it is hoped, indicate in a satisfactory manner the advantages to be derived from the Colonies generally agreeing to a plan of union as here laid down. By the last outgoing mail a circular was addressed to the Victorian Commissioners for the Paris Exhibition, named in the margin,* inviting them to seek the co-operation in London or Paris of the representatives of the other Australian Colonies, for the purpose of making arrangements to carry out the proposal so brought forward. While proposing so to fuse the several Colonies into one whole, it is by no means necessary that any interference should take place with the space allotted to each, or with the details of exhibition. All that can be suggested on this side is, that the several Colonial Commissioners for Paris should meet at the earliest moment, and endeavor to agree on some general base of action, whereby the products of each Colony should be shown to the best advantage, while at the same time the effect of one united and comprehensive whole, may be thoroughly carried out. I may point out that the wool from Victoria was exhibited in the form of a triumphal arch at the Exhibition of 1862, and as that mode was greatly admired, there are no practical difficulties in the way of carrying out the arrangements ot this staple in the form indicated ; and, as full details have been forwarded to our Commissioners in London as to the mode of construction, it will be cnly necessary that each Colony shoald send, say eight bales, as its quota for the trophy, while the separate cost of producing this aggregate effect will be but trifling. I shall be happy to supply any further information on this subject that you may require, and would respectfully request that you might favor our Commissioners with your views on this matter at your early convenience. I have, &c, J. G. Knight, Secretary. To His Excellency Sir George Grey, KC.B., &c. * MrW.F. De Salis. 38 Cannon Street, London ; Mr J. J. Nankivell, Mr Thomas Randall, Mr Thomas Sellar. Medical* DR.
