terrain Church. falls heir in entering upon his
work as the successor Of DIR. Crosby. ms

most desirable to insure the success OF the tx
position is likely to cross the ocean. On this
head Mr. Stanton offers some suggestions which
are well worthy of thoughtful attention from the
managers of the Fair.
