THE GREAT EXHIBITION.
Yesterday the receipts at the doors amount' d to
28591. 75., the number of visitors being 60,382. A
table, showing the arrivals from hour to hour each
day, and comple.to from the commencement of the
month, is now placed in the transept, and attracts
great attention.
The folio n ing memorial has been addressed to the
Executive Committee by the attendants employed
by exhibitors :
" The Alecoarial of the undersigned, the Attendants
employed in the Great Exhibidon,
" Showeth,—That we your memorialists having heard
that the Royal Commissioners have &ally closed their
sittings, we beg most respectfully to bring to your no-
tice and consideration the following statement :
" That your memorialists aro fully alive to the ar-
duous duties which the Royal Commissioners and the
Executive Committee have had to perform, and the di-
fficulties with which they have had to contend, so as to
give satisfaction to all the exhibitors and others who
have so ably come forward to lend their assistance to
promote this great work ; but that your memorialists
feel assured that this great work could not have been
brought to its successful termination without their active
co-operation.
" That your memorialist having heard that some of the
police have been, and that others are about to be re-
warded for the services they have rendered to the
World's Fair, beg most re3pectfally to suggest that some
small reward or memento be given to them for the part
they have performed, more especially to those employed
in the machinery department, many of whom have left
their wives and families, and have come from great dis-
tances to fit up the wondrous machines exhibited by
their employers, and have thereby had the expense of
two homes to keep, and who have always been found at
their posts in an atmosphere varying from 70 to 100
degrees of Fahrenheit, such atmosphere rendered the
more prejudicial to their health in consequence of the
vapour arising from waste steam and the smell of the
anti-attrition compound used in the lubricating of the
machinery, and many of the attendants have had serious
inroads made upon their constitutions.

" That your memorialists (British as well as foreign)
are not aware of any complaints ever having been made
against any of their body for incivility or other miscon-
duct, but have always been punctual at their stands,
ready, and feeling a pleasure and pride in explaining the
wonderful machines and works of art under their care,
giving alike to the prince and the peasant every infor-
mation required by them.

" That under the circumstances your memorialists
hope that the Executive Committee will use their influ•
ence with the ItJyal Commissioners to obtain for us a
favourable consideration of this our application, and not
allow us to return to our homes, and this great work to
pass away, without some small token for the services
we have rendered.

" And your memorialists will ever pray, &e.
