PROVINCIAL COMMITTER.

A mating of the sub sonainfitte for filling up the varied.
lotted to Huddenfie.d was held on Monday at the commis.
goners' rooms, at which it wee resolved to give notice to [p-
ending exhibitors under all the sections, except 11, 12, 16,
and 18, that their productions mast be ready for the inspection
of the local jury by the 20th February to insure their admis-
sion to the building. The committee then adopted, with
some slight modifications, Mr. Pritchett's plan of fitting up
the counters for the other sections, and requested him to
draw up a epecificatioa to be submitted to immediate corn-
'Wilton, in order that the space may be so prepared
as to warrant the executive committee in allowing
further time for the admission of the textile articles
from the neighbourhood. Severs! other topic were
discussed inter nun' that of aapointing persons
to take charge of the goods dozing the whole period of the
exhibition, who mast of course be parties qualified by pre-
vious experience for this duty, but the COSUllittile separated
without coming teeny decision on the subject. On Tooaday
• mostiag was held at the chief sionsiable's, Wm. Mellen's,
q , when he, with Frederick Schwalm and Joseph Norton,
&qrs., were deputed to go to London to confer with the
executive committee on several important matters connected
with the Exhibition.

Two CVSTOII•HOVIDI AND 7111 EININITION.—The in-
terminable difficulties mid 001\111111011 which would certainly
visit the Custowi•house officials, when tee foreign arrivals to

me the great show had set in in earnest, have been pebliely
pointed out. These difficulties are likely to fmt met by
addition. to the staff, end we trust by a relaxation 0
the stringent regulations to which carpet bugs are generally
subject** at the London•bridge w►arf. Although the cow
miationen of customs have not yet approved of any regula-
tions with respect to the landing of visitors to the great
eshibition, or the cleariume of their luggage, we havc
authority for stating that the qatstion is now under their
spcclal consideration.

Tel BOARD OF MULTI( AND MN EXHIBITION,—
It has beim cetfldently st►ted in more than one quarter
that the Board or Health had perfected regulations for the
protection of as health of London throughout the forth-
coming summer. This report prove. to be without sounds-
time. The board some two months ago offered their ser-
vices to the real commissioners for the purpose of inspecting

the ludgi‘g ht.iuies that might be registered tor the reception
of visitors to the exhibition. In reply, the commissioners
expressed their readiness to avail the:wolves of the services
of sanitary °limn, but stated that the cumber of houses
then registered was not Isere enough to Tenth r it ntoerary
to make say provision for their inspection at that time.
