veils the painful nature of the subject. But that the French sculptors are 'wore proficient in hand li ng c l a y. and greater adepts in all that concerns the manipulation of marble, than in the science of . metal casting, is clear. There is much that is me ritorious i n t he " Chamois Hunter," by Mr. I)e Bay, but it does not evince that great mastery over the bronze material which ever calls forth the praises of those who witness the works from lie - Ikea foundry. and which adorn the gardens both of the Tuileries and Versailles. That, on the other hand, the chiselling of marble has been carried to perk:Aim' is equally evident in the " Bacchante" by Mr. A. J. Cie :singer, which is fittingly imbedded amid the luxuries coming from Sevres and the Golfe lins. The rounded contours of the figure show h A w far the talented sculptor may trench on the ground which, in pointing, Iliehens has made his own. This work could scarcely he surpassed in the descary of the chiselling of lulu's, hands, and feet, or in the listless grace of the attitude; the addition of the bunch of grapes, of the ivy crown and upset tazza, were almost needless accessories. Turning from the contemplation of French and German sculpture to the votive offerings of Italy, one cannot hut be struck by those contrasts which from time• inimeinocaul have Is en the distingui-Iting ellararteristics between northern and southern school , ; the first are still as remarkable fior feverish activity mad energetic action as the latter for poetic contemplatio' and repose—whilst the one is conti nually uusheathing the warrior's sword, the other is, on the contrary, thawing fresh arrows from Cupid's quiver. That, however, another school has of late sprung up among the I.ombards is clearly perceptible in num. rous works of the present Exhibition, which is fleet the highest eit tit on the descendants of the Italian arcistie to public. Among these are particularly conspicuous the works of two young and evatently rising men the tilsoll/111 istrazza and G.

Prince Albert, by Mr. Engel, a gentleman of Hun- garian extraction. The general style of this work shows that the artist has in vain dwelt on the! Grecian relievoes collected in the Roman Capita! Incomplete in some respects, chiefly from the lack of verisimilitude in the grouping, a • very slight increase of energy of execution would make this sculptural composition worthy of the an tique. The adoption of the old Greek texture of drapery, said to have arisen from the slightness of the web, is pleasing, both as a reminiscence of past art, and as a contrast to more ample folds of drapery. A little further on are conjured up the forms of the Shakspearian inhabitants of fairyland, at the bidding of Mr. L C. Lough, who successfully asserts that if painting has hitherto failed in the de lineation of Anel, Titania, and Puck, sculpture pro mises with the aid of its alabaster 'surfaces, to succeed better. The sprite, the fairy, and the elf alike Iwspeak Mr. Lough's acquaintance with that popular tribe which revel In the pages of the Eng lish poet and eastern romance. To those who might too fondly dwell on dreams, are presented stoking images of warriors, such as Hampden and Falkland. by Foley and Calder Marshall, and of the more wacelld chieftain of our day, in the colossal bronz.l figure of the Duke of Rutland by E. Davis, a work of sterling merit. The immense progress of decorative art which has ! of late developed itself in England is satisfactorily' perceptible., though in many respects flailing far short of continental experience in it: application to the useful and every-day purposes of existence. Its retrograde moment is exempliiied in the wonderful meditecalisms which have sprung from the fertile but crotchety brain of Mr. W. l'ugin, who must surrey with a f. , ling not untinged with compla cency his designs c,-..tefully developed through the genial agency of Messes.

Penn exhibits some most exquisitely finished engines; one of which, we have already alluded to, is of twenty-four horse power, acts on the oscillating principlC, but does not appear to have any thing new about it. Penn has also brought some new engines for screw propelling, of thirty horse power each, called we believe trunk engines ; instead of having a long thin piston rod, he has a tube which passes through the top and bottom of the cylinder, the piston is fixed to it, and the connecting rod works on a joint half way down this tube. The tube has to be of sufficient diameter to allow the con meting rod to vibrate : there cannot but be a good deal of friction through the stuffing boxes. Mote ! over, this tube will have to take the strain produced on the connecting rod by the crank, and this strain, we believe, from what we see at least, is resisted at the stuffing boxes. which is bad. For condensing engines, particularly, it is as well to have as few and as small stuffing boxes as pos -1 Bible, on account of the admission of air into the cc-Hiders. Tlw 80(4W Clekerlli of Belgium ex hibit a marine of Nit) horse power fur paddle ! wheels ; the principle though good, is rather old, nod perhaps obsolete. It consists of two oscillating cylin ders working the NUM mink. Some parts of it ap peared tons rather weak, and in point of workman ship, perhaps, it would not bu fair to compare it with Penn's. We now pass on to locomotives. We were a.sto. nished to see an engine built by Stephenson on Crompton's principle. We expected to see something more original from that quarter. Crompton's principle consists in placing the driving wheels be hind the tire box, so that there maybe large driving wheels without the axle interfering with the boiler, and at the same time place the boiler below ; but hitherto theeylinders lurrebeenoutside; in this ease thecylin ders are inside, and drive a shaft independent of any wheels, there being at each end of the shift a crank connected to the driving-wheels by- outside rods ; when the 11-icing-wheels are keyed on the driving shaft. wiretever jolts or concussions the driving wheels are subjected to will be communicated, in a certain extent, to the whole machinery in motion, which is inju:lous, besides that it renders the crank shaft liable to fracture. The crank shaft, being independent of the driving-wheels, renuslies the evil to a great extent; the plan is' good, but not new. R. and W. Hawthorn exhibit r. locomotive in which n variety- of improvements are carried out. The first is an improved plan for taking the pressure of the steam al the slide valves: the plan is good, hut whether it will answer or not can only be ascer tained by experience; we can only wry that, as fur as tiny claw been trued, they have liven found to answer perfectly. New links are also introduced, intended to supersede those in get wtol use, being more easily constructed, and more perfect in their action. Another improvement is in the compensating springs; it is common to see in some loonnoiives the axle hoiten of the leading and driving wheels connected to the suds of one beam ; of course, this is done on each side of the engine, each beam acts through the medium of springs on fulcrum-, the leading and tithing. wheels, therefor, balance each other, Curt is, any sudtho shock or citucussion taking place, instead of being resisted only by two wheels w:1l be rEstri buted over time, thus the engine will not remise so severe a shod:. This is the principle adopted in the present instance, only to a more perfect extent ; the six wheels are connected to four beams, and sup posing the leading and trilling wheels to be sud denly treed up, the driving wheels would be forced down---that is, any shock occurring to any of the wheels will be distributed over the whole sex ' thus rendering the engine l e ss liabl e to severe s h oc k s , en abling her to run steadier and, therefore, safer at high speeds.

Much I inure would have been required to meet the demands of a I musical critic, but considering the building, the incongruous 'materials of which the choir was composed, and the position of the performers at the side of the transept, the execution was very good. It was noticed by the frequenters of tho Opera, that in the " God save the Queen," as lin the " Hallelujah Chorus," the tones of Lablache's voice were easily to be distinguished, as eas ily, I indeed, in the vast structure of the Crystal l'alace as in the smaller limits of the Haymarket theatre. It is likewise worthy of remark that the tones of the great organ were made sensible at a distance of eighteen hundred feet, or thrice the length of the longest cathedral. I , Om of the anuounecto...nts of the Queen's arrival was the unveiling of her colossal representative, exhibited be th: Vedic Montagne Zinc Cempauv. Another was the putting in activity the crystal folintaine, which, during the royal presence, played with Eau do Cologne, large supplies of, which had been provided the night bef o re. lids odour wos the more agreeable to some of the company, as a large party of ladies and gentlemen standing under the banner of *Tus cany had been suspected of indulging in spirituous liquors, from the strong smell given forth by the vinous i reductions of Florence in their neighbourhood. The royal procession swept along amid admirin eyes, and the Queen seemed to enter fully into the spirit of the scene. The procession we. worthily closed by the ladies of the court in full dices, whose beauty was remarked, even in the presence of the many handsome women of all lands whom ' the events of the day luid brought together. On the departure of the evorb:ee the barriers wire thrown down, and the crowd soon dissipated itself in the vast cham bers of the Crystal Palace; the assemblage receiving new accessions from the late vied., who had to initiate the officials in the forms of examining tickets and exacting signatures, On the east side of the northern transept entrance, n space ha , been eneloeed for the reception and robing rooms for her Majesty, and fluted with blue and white drapery. It has been fitted up by Messrs. Jackson and Graham. On the top of the exterior is an enriched cornice, gilt, and over the entrance a bold shield, with brauchee of laurel surmounted by a crown, also gilt. The entrance to the reception room is hung wit hl portieres of tapestry, portly worked with gold, and the entrance to the robing room with richly worked lace curtains lined with blue silk. The furniture in the two rosins is all covered in blue silk damask of Spit:Wield, manufacture, one portion being richly carved and gilt, and the other of walnut wood. The carpet is of the richest velvet, the design groups of roses and convolrulus. The canopy over the Quern was 32 feet square with the corners taken off; and suspended over the throne at a height of 30 feet. It is divided on the ur.der side into 12 compartments, each 8 feet square, and 4 halves divided diagonally from point to point. Each compartment is fluted from the centre with blue silk, and has a star of lirunswick (gilt) where they meet; round the outside of the canopy, is a drapery of blue fringe, with blue and white silk ornament,* and ropes dropping si'little at each angle. This is surmounted by a cornice with gilt mountings, and upon the facia a bold en• richment of laurel leaves (gilt) upon .blue ground, and a plume of blue and white ostrich feathers at each angle. The interval, a full hour, that elapsed between the in augur:dive en route and return of the royal svelege, was filled up b' the vast multitude in a eerie ty of ways. It would puzz le arithmetic itself to reckon, or Babbage's cal culating machine to cast up, or the enumerator of the census iteelf to ascertain, the exact number of the multi tude pleasantly perambulating the park and it s precincts, end passing on. like , permutatiou, from point to point, in all the spirit of Eng lish holiday good humour. Thou-ands were wiling away the time upon the greensward or on the borders of the Serpentine, which—the appearance of itl lmving a meet tentareable effect—was completely encircled fur the nonce front hank to hank and bridge to outhouse, with a void bracelet of human beings, while upon its surface the model frigate and other reconnoitring craft fired forth salutes, proelaitning iu a volleyed voice of 20 guns that " the Pa •. of Industry wits opened," and was now a fed alcompli. Amongst the episodical incidents that en gaged the attention of the multitudes without while the grand ivauguratiou was going ou within, and which came to the rescue to fill up the time, were the deploying to and fro of the troops; the, sudden apparition of a balloon a league up aloft in the sunlight; and the eliunlwring of men and boys, with the dexterity of squirrels, up the houghs of the stalwart trees, thinking that without a " visitor's ticket" they would be able from that altitude to obtain a furtive peep through the tr.uoparent roof at what was going nu in the crystal arcade. Men stud women, who professeil to supply advan tageous standing raisin, were busily engaged inviting atten tion to a profusion of forms, unit which, for eu much a bead, the occupontsfalaneed themselves on their leg', at the risk of feting overbalanced altogether. The gram that a few hours before presented a rich gieen had now, from the trampling of the multitude, assumed a eontplexion perfectly pots tI suie. .Malt and alcoholics being proscribed, the mildest thing indulged in wits a draught of new milk, and the pow comitatus, on the return of the torpt mlpfuatnlihk and of the civic authorities, amused themselves and those functionaries by raising ironical "hurrahs," which in one instance had the etfect of frightening two spirited horses, ad:wiled to a carriage, containing some noted visitors, and who, in consequence of the plung ing and kicking, and breaking the carriage pole, had to uli t ,ht end walk through the park. In two or three other instances the same fisolielt manifestation, but which was tartan :o,ly suppressed, threatened a like disastrous Albert-gate, noun with all the other main thoroughfares, was liswit gel mid blockaded by the crowd. All the shops in lien angton were classed, flags went very generally di:L.:eyed, and ,the " sympusimus " appeared to fill well.

Itinereet :enders of edibles and pont , • I mesa-lA.4s of mild name, and sometimes of innocent properties—throng the pavement. On the north side of the road every third house is converted into a tavern or restaaraht, where the flags of " all nations," depending front the first-floor Will , loWit in vite the traveller of all nations to enter and feast, the saga. ficant banners being generally aided by polyglot inserip tions, such as the " Calce des Paris," the ' Restaurant the Espanola," which, if not grammatically accurate, it may be hoped will prove intelligible to the parties csp.cially de signed to benefit by them. Here we find that the crowd assumes a miscellaneous and undecided character. It has attained such proxi:oity to the chief point of attraction us to lose the preponderating influence which had previously impelled it steadily westwards, and the individual atoms of which it is composed begiu to gyrate in obedience to their several tendencies. These for the most part led them, at the critical periods when habit had accustomed them, to be hurrying towards the innumerable temples opened for the worship of the gastronomic divinities. And when the fame dedicated to Bacchus and to Ccres are tilled sea to too 11 , Norways, a circle of death's is formed outside; and well dressed but famished applicants are not ashamed to stead eying the victuals through the window, and to devour them upon the spot wheu lucky enough to get served in the most al fresco and independent manner conceivable. Nothing in Met 1,4 more striking upon great occasions like that of Thursday, than the complete tor-y-turvyiag they exhibit of all the ordinary rules of soci, and of ceremony. Everybody does there just as he plevses, which means that lie deviates us widely as possible friou his usual latitude and behaviour. Society is the rule and etiquette the exception. All things are to be done without loss of dignity, and suffered without loss of temper. How chit would it be possible for half a million people to cluster and congregate for several hours without every individual of our sex committing breaches of mood manners hanisa them front good society, or the other getting involved in quarrels flr which the gentlemanly " satisfaction" commonly exacted might acriouslv diminish the totals of the mot canoe ? The thunder of artillery announces that the et r• menial .t over, and the Queen has proclaimed the " Lthibitiot opened." Immediately is perceptible a reties of the tide of population. The eastward bound omnibuses , begin to wax heavier, and a stream of vehicles is form ia that direction whose first gush is checked at 11 v d.apar: corner by the transit, on its return, of the royal i•rocessi. .

The greatest good humour prevailed amongst the vast crowd throughout the entire day, awl was pre ' !served under the most difficult circuiwtances. It extended even to the drivers awl conductorA of the public vehicles, who seemed to have put on gala maw nen as they had put upon their bursa s.llious gda decorations. We perceived courtesies exchanged even be tween omnibus conductors mid their passenger.; and no. tired gentle-minded eabmen—evidently mcfnle.s of the Animals' Iriend society—who had unlaced the lashes of their whips by a bunch of white satin ribbon.

Beneath this were the royal initials in pure white hoops, each letter b e i ng encircled by leaves of laurel, iu green Loup., and richly gemmed w lilt ruby-coloured fruit, thu whole design being terminated by a Trim lsiver's Knot in blue Loops.

Presently the centripetal forme began to act upon the separate amsas Curniklang these street groups, which begun accordingly to move off in a westerly direetion, and thus wh a t th e aut h or o f t h e " Vestiges" would tali " mob-mist" became a well-developed series of currents of humauity rapidly aggregating into a nucleus around the Crystal Palace.

For nearly three hours this tide never ebbed. (halyard it rulhal iu one unbroken vehicular current, stagiuding at various narrow gorges, or at embouchures of cross streets, into, dark masses that resembled the deep blind( pools in a water-course. Multifarious were the component atoms of this vast current. Stylish carriages kept their panels barely clear of the pules of cockney-stuffed omnibuses; and those again were impregnably bleekaded by hacks, cabs, , 1 citizen.' gigs, and et onotuical broughams. htill with every minute the torrent grew broader and deeper, and still the streams of pedestrians on each side swelled over or beyond the trottairo, until th e str ee t s became literally ; choke-full the I torrent elienited into a tideway w h en near l y at the iluod, and the pulsalions of stoppages or progress were reflected back like the " here" of the Severn from Hyde-park- carrier to Somerset House. Shortly after 11 oellek a marked change came over the occur. The known punctuality of royal movements warned everybody that the minute tiled in the programme ter closing the doors would be observed as accurately as the occultation of a Jupte r's satellite, and all who had set out with the intention of assisting at the inauguration of the Industrial Exhibition were either already within the build-1 ing or had given up all thoughts of succeeding in that at tempt and gone home in despair. These privileged classes being subtracted, the streets were lett altogether to the people and their vehicles, and greatly did the people seem to enjoy themselves upon the occasion. All the omnibuses in London tinctured to have b een preeas i i nto their service for this particular route, and they were all filled to overflowing.

From the _ TUE EXHIBITION YESTERDAY. , If the scene in the Crystal Palace yeah.' wa 10.4 exciting it was not less beautiful than on the previois day. There was no thrill of expectation, no outburst -f • pent-up joy, but in return u diffused eharen, whie radiated trent the thousand centres, and which the !vowed. e/ incidents of the opening fur a time had seemed to over ' shadow. The storm of public excitement was past, the wind had subsided, hut the swell still cemented Thousands returned to refresh their tee le ilium ct a spectacle which they well knew they could never hops to see equalled in their time again. There ...semen to be an overpowering desire experienced to inele ire retloction, to measure accurately the character and value et a pageant the course of which was too rapid, and the feel ing. which it evoked too powerful to admit a eaten r. xertiwi of the judgment, to such a height had public admiration and enthusiasm been Iram qu ,rteel. l'e.terday the wearied ' contractors rested front their labours, the wounds of ham mers, thu rush of artimm, the bustle, the dia, and the turmoil of preparation had ceased. The (offices of the executive were no longer besieged by crowds of anxious applicants. The active members of 010 COM. mitten appeared to enter on a new era, win-re their energy might safely be relaxed. Multitudes of people flecked into the building, but of a far different ekcs from the swarming bawls of workmen who have hithei been its occupants. The noble, the learned, tend the %meld came to parade its long avenues, and to meditate at their leisure upon the grandeur of the preceding das s ceremo nial, and survey the field which opened an unbounded store for subsequent inquiry. There was alio an evidem desire to see the arrange me lets of the state opening ioedbre they were removed, and to revive the impressions en an event which every our who witnessed it will treasure carefully in hi. memory. The mind and vision of the spectator, undisturbed by distracting objects, have now time to csonternplat, lad dwell upon all the wonders of that marvellous int, ricr. The grind design, the artistic deeorations, and the regular pro portions of the building, are all earefully observed. People has, time to analyse their gen-se-al impressions iii admiration, tee justify the conclusions at w icicle they had already arrived, and to steely carefully every part of the picture presented to their sight. When this source of enjoy - mem inal been exhausted yesterday the throng of visitors examined closely and in detail the immense number of striking object* which make up the hod enseotb c of the nave. The Koh-i-noor, M. Osler's fountain, Kis..'s Amason, Schwanthaler's bronzes, and the Bavarian lion were so many dusters of strong attraction. The Executive Committer, notwithstanding the un'aus at their disposal, will have boatel difficulty in clearing out their e1...n0r, and shutting up shop, us they propose, at six o'clock. Thu long summer evenings are lust apionewhing, and the desire to linger where there is so much to delight will show itself with more and more force every day. As yesterday was the first pay-day, the public will be in terested to know the amount of money taken at the en ' traincs of the building. It will lee recollected that the charge for admission, except by season tickets, on the two days sue ' evening the opening was fixed at lt. At this rate upwards of &SM. was collected yesterday.

CHEAP LODGINGS DrRING THE ENIIIIiITION.-- The excitement ran so high with regard to the Exhibition of the Industry or all Nation% that a great doubt e:iisted as to lio.v those who attended were to get lodgings. Some thought they would be obliged to sleep iu the fields— seine that they would be obliged to take the floor, and mine that they would be thankful for a mattress in a coal hole. Great perplexity arose, too, as regarded the supply of edible's and how those were to be served. Waiters out of number would be requisite; and woad to any amount would he essential. Where, too, were wash-hand basins to be had; looking-glasses were wanted; the seap-netinuthe tareis must make a fortune; and as for thu laundry maids, London could not produce a tithe of those that w, re neces sary. There was a difficult problem in all this, and a townsman has solved it. U r . Livingston, a tt. Enoeh square, the leader of the juvenile total abstaic.c.s of the city, has taken a true view of the .u!,j...et, and laid it before his own young world of impressible hearts, a that not even a child can mistake its charge, as compared with the advantages conferred. Mr. Livingston has engaged the screw -steamer European, now plying between Glasgow and London, Mr a senes of trips durisq the " world's i.dr." The steamer reaches LOP dun-bridge—the centre of the city—and there it remains as a home ter those who might lie wonderfully puzzled to se cure lodgings. The vessel is to its passengers a home on the voyage—it is their lodging by day—it is their bou.t• for the nig:it—and their "castle "at all seasons. The passengers allied to the temperance cause have, iu truth, in this series of tripe, a floating mansion where there is no Luidlord, no waiter, no chambermaid, no bouts, nothing but tie ir own marine palace, and themselves its masters.
