CIRCULAR.
Downing Street,
12th April, 1850.
SIR—I have been in communication with the Commissioners whom the Queen has been pleased to appoint for promoting the Exhibition of the Works of Industry of all Nations, to be held in London early next year; and the Commissioners have expressed a desire to be placed generally in communication with such persons, or bodies, in each of the British colonies from which articles may be sent for exhibition, as might be considered likely to command the confidence of those who may become exhibitors.
I have accordingly addressed the necessary instructions for that purpose to the Governors of such colonies as, from their proximity to this country, might be enabled to make the desired arrangements within the period mentioned.
The distance of New Zealand, however, precludes the possibility of adopting such a course with reference to that colony, and I can only therefore transmit to you, for your information, a copy of the accompanying extract from the Royal Gazette, which contains the notification of the appointment of the Commission together with papers showing the rules and regulations under which the exhibition will be conducted.
It is, I am sure, unnecessary for me to urge upon you the adoption of any means in your power for furthering the important object in view; and I shall be glad if you should be enabled, within the limited space of time which is allowed, to forward any contributions from the colony under your government.
I have, &c.,
(Signed) GREY.
