The Calcutta Exhibition.
The attendance at the Exhibition shows that up to date half a million persons hare paid for admission. As the interest in the display shows no sign of lessening, the closing will probably be postponed for a fortnight beyond the date originally fixed. The awards which have been declared by the various Juries have given general satisfactien to the exhibitors.
A farewell luncheon was given to-day to Mr vßasisto, Victorian Commissioner. In a speech on the occasion, he expressed complete satisfaction with the proposed scheme for a line of direct steamers between India, Australia, and the States, and his belief was that such a service would be likely to succeed.
