sent to them, on or after Wednesday the 12th
of February, and will continue to receive goods
until Monday the 31st of March 1862 inclusive.
14. Articles of great size or weight, the
placing of which will require considerable
labour, must be sent before Saturday the 1st of
March 1862; and manufacturers wishing to
exhibit machinery, or other objects, that will
require foundations or special constructions,
must make a declaration to that effect on their
demands for space.
15. Any exhibitor whose goods can properly
be placed together, will be at liberty to arrange
such goods in his own way, provided his
arrangement is compatible with the general
scheme of the Exhibition and the convenience
of other exhibitors.
16. Where it is desired to exhibit processes
of manufacture, a sufficient number of articles,
however dissimilar, will be admitted for the
purpose of illustrating the process; but they
must not exceed the number actually re-
quired. (17-25.)
26. Exhibitors will be required to deliver
their goods at such part of the building as
shall be indicated to them, with the freight,
carriage, porterage, and all charges and dues
upon them paid.
27. The vans will be unloaded, and the
articles and packages taken to the places
appointed in the building, by the officers of
Her Majesty's Commissioners.
28. Upon receipt of notice from Her
Majesty's Commissioners, that the articles are
deposited in the building, exhibitors, or their
representatives, or agents, must themselves
unpack, put together, and arrange their goods.
29. Packing cases must be removed at the
cost of the exhibitors or their agents, as soon
as the goods are examined and deposited in
charge of the Commissioners. If not removed
within three days of notice being given, they
will be disposed of, and the proceeds, if any,
applied to the funds of the Exhibition.
(30-34.)
35. No counters, or fittings, will be pro-
vided by Her Majesty's Commissioners. Ex-
hibitors will be permitted, subject only to the
necessary general regulations, to erect, accord-
ing to their own taste, all the counters, stands,
glass frames, brackets, awnings, hangings, or
similar contrivances which they may consider
best calculated for the display of their goods.
36. Exhibitors, or their representatives,
should provide whatever light temporary cover-
ing may be requisite (such as sheets of oiled
calico), to protect their goods from dust; and,
in the case of machinery, and polished goods,
should make the requisite arrangements for
keeping the articles free from rust during the
time of the Exhibition. (37-42.)
43. Exhibitors must be at the charge of
insuring their own goods, should they desire
this security. Every precaution will be taken
to prevent fire, theft, or other losses, and Her
Majesty's Commissioners will give all the aid
in their power for the legal prosecution of any
persons guilty of robbery or wilful injury in
the Exhibition, but they will not be responsible
for losses or damage of any kind which may
be occasioned by fire or theft, or in any other
manner.
44. Exhibitors may employ assistants (male
or female) to keep in order the articles they
exhibit, or to explain them to visitors, after
obtaining written permission from Her Majesty's
Commissioners; but such assistants will be
forbidden to invite visitors to purchase the
goods of their employers. (45-49.)
50. Articles once deposited in the Building
will not be permitted to be removed without
written permission from Her Majesty's Com-
missioners. (51-54.)
55. Her Majesty's Commissioners will pro-
vide shafting, steam (not exceeding 30 lbs. per
inch), and water, at high pressure, for machines

Several numbers are left blank, with the view of
