following address to the press:
"1O the Editors Of the Country: The an
the International Cotton Exposition will
close December 31st From the hundreds
Of letters daily received at this Office it is
evident that the people generally hope that
something may occur to induce the mana
gers to extend 1t through January. l there
fore respectfully request the press to say
that such an extension is absolutely
impossible. The exhibits will remain
intact until the last evening of the
month. The work of removal will
begin January 2. l would also announce
that the last will be in all respects the most
interesting and important week of the Ex-
position, and that the closing ceremonies
will be particularly impressive. In giving
to the press this, which will probably be
the last general bulletin l shall issue, l de-
sire to thank the journals of this country
for the u2tiring and unstinted support they
have given to the Exposition from first to
last. To this more than to all other causes
combined its magnificent success is to be
ascribed.
"H. l. KIMBALL, Director General"

New York Times.]
English court society is becoming less
exclusive, to the great sorrow OF the
snobs who infest it. The London Times
in an editorial upon the very large num-
Der of persons who nowadays are pre-
sented at court, seems to lament the
fact that the court Of st. James is one
of the very few matters not yet ex-
plored, numbered and classed by either
a statistical society or registrar general,
or the fashionable booksellers of the
West End. The Court Guide is a mere
directory Of persons living in the more
fashionable districts Of the town, and
contains the names Of about 10000 per-
sons enjoying incomes ranging from
9SOO to 100000 a year. Sixty years
ago it contained the names OF about
10000 persons, and this-about the year
1ssO-was the origin Of the proverbial
expression of the aristocracy as the
upper ten" Twenty years ago it con
tained the names of about 10000, and at
present about one and half times that
number.
