WE think that there is little doubt
but that the educational bills about

amended as to give a portion of the

sengers and exhibits from Liverpool
to the Exposition, and to remain in

succeeds it will add a novel feature
to the Exposition besides giving the
jetties the grandest test to which il
is possible to subject them.
