The novelty in this elms is a . gigantic barometer, invented by Messrs. Cannella end Co., ol Ha:too-garden. The tuba and scale reach from the Soar of the g dlery to nearly the top of the building, the rim and fall of the indicating fluid being marked by feet instead of by tentas of inches. The inventios is provisionally regis tered, under the recent act of parliament. Its mode of action io shown In a barometer on a smaller scale, in a cans of instruments near. The column of smeary supported by the room r , of the atmosphere communicates with • perpendicular Labe of -sutler bore, which contains a coloured fluid much lighter than the mercury. When • diminution of atmospheric prows, anus, the mercury in the Isere tube descends, mad Ly its fall forces up the coloured fluid in the smaller lobo, the fall of the one being indicated in • magnified ra tie by the rise in the other; and by this means • great range of the scale is obtained—much greater, indeed, than is a wee: barometer 33 feet high. It might be supposed that dm pressure of the coloured fluid would emsaterhslance that of the mertury, and that the *radii-rues, of the ic , trurnent would he limited by the ditPrenes in the epeeilic gravities of mercury end the fluid employed ; but in the larger barometer this is not the case, and we believe the Ketonic is diminished by Me tlpianry attr ietion of the tube.

First we arc Minded by a fine drawing-room clock, designed by C. Groot. with subjects by O. Abbott. This composition is imbed in an eleetrotyped ease, and stands upon a base sad pedestal of turquoise blue glass. ['hen we' moss to notice a child's mug, upon which Wil kie's "Blind Man's Buff" is finely chased. Neat our attention is attracted by the royal arms of England Mess the Conquest, engraved upon various metals, and en- I graved with sealing wax. Then come the splendid cups, caskets, tams, centre-pieces, candelabras, vases, etc., el -1 bibited by Messrs. hunt and Itoskell; then a tea-tray, illustrative of the purposes of the Exhibition, finely en graved by Donald@ ; then, in melancholy mood, we pause over the last work of Wagner, of Paris—a silver rose-water dish exhibited by Mr. Forrest, of the Strand; then I we endeavour to picture to ourselves the delight of Staunton b:fore the gorgeous chessmen exhibited by Eady of Clerkenwell ; and then we cannot but Notice the candelabrum given, as a testimonial, to Mr. Macready. Designs in every variety appear to be here assembled, from the rigid Elizabethan style to the familiar and homely tratione of Donnybrook fair. Here are silver Arab mer chants halting in the desert; Sir Roger de Cove rley and the gipsici; there a chased shield, representing the battle of Alexander and Darius; further on a salver illustrating the labours of Hercules. Messrs. Armitage and llorsley's 'Spirit of Religion, ' has been adapted to the dimensions of a silver tablet for a Bible binding; and Queen Elizabeth has been hammered out on silver by Messrs. Morell, of New Burlington-street; while the national pride has been fed with a Shakspeare cup, chased with subjects from Lear Julius Circa:, Othello, the Tempest, Macbeth, and Hamlet. Altogether, it must he allowed that British workers in precious metals have laboured successfully to place them selves in dignified contrast with their foreign rivals; and to vindicate themselves from the vulgar charge that they lack the taste necessary fur the perfection of olojeetx in pre cious metals designed for use. It would be premature, as yet, to compare their exhibited works with those in the foreign department; inasmuch as up to this time much re . mains to he fixed in portions of the foreign space, where we hope to find great specimens of foreign skill and taste in this particular manufacture. Directly all the articles are fairly ' placed befere the public, we shall devote some space to foreign workers in the precious metals.

VIM—INDIA-RUBBER AIR-Oct:This haven dos, which presents a singular combination of the elastic powers of vulcanised India-rubber awl air, has been invented sad patented by Mr. John Shaw, of Glossop, musical instru ment maker. It will doubtless be gladly welcomed by the lovers of ball-shooting, as enabling them to enjoy their favourite diversion at a fractional pan of its former cost. Without any previous pumping, the re tuisite pressure of air for one discharge is procured instantly at the pull of the trigger, by a single stroke of a eondensisg syringe, actuated by a previously extended India-rubber spring. There is so separate pump, no reservoir of condensed air, nor valve of any kind. The whole apparatus is enclos:d in a ease, which, being stocked, bas the appearance of • light sad idagant fowling-piece • ithout a luck. The invention pos. mess several advantages over the ordinary air-gun, one of which is its superior safety, owing to the absence of a begs reservoir of highly condensed air, and to the extreme simplicity of its mechanism.

Iloughtun, of this town, consisting of two fine damask linen tablecloths, beautifully orna mented, one with the Kent arms (a cheval rampant), the other with &basket of fruit ; also two dinner napkins to match. I may add that this manutactory wax established nearly is century ago, and soon obtained celebrity fur its successful method of working a substantial article from the home spun flax of the district farmers. This celebrity has ever been ou the increase • and now, aided by long experience, and various mechani cal improvements, the looms are made to produce linen of very superior quality, as the supply to nearly all of the families of the gentry of Kent and neigh buuring counties will amply testify. The great care be stowed in the fabrication, and the total absence of chemical preparations in the process of bleaching, the durability, weight, yet fineness of texture, are so obvious, that al though those cloths exhibited were selected from the stock on hand, 1 am confident they will lose nothing by being compared with others manufactured expressly for the Ex hibition ; and thinking that any information on this inte resting branch of British industry might be acceptable to you in your survey, and booing to obtain au honourable men • lion in your so jus!ly popular paper fur goods which are really desereind of it, 1 am, Sir, your obedient servant, L.

HALL, CLASS XXIX., No. =3.—STerrED class 29, you will find a very handsome display of stuffed birds, executed by Mr.liardner's own hand, of Oxford-street, Lon- don, bird-stutter to her Majesty. There is one ease in par- titular that surpasses everything of the art of stuffing in the Exhibition : it is a scene of a fox surprising a covey of partridges. The position of the fox is good—crawling under a bank to the weakest part, where one bird appears to be nearly asleep. Among the whole covey of partridges, very different from the generality of stuffed birds, there are not two in the same position. Standing under the snow scene there is another very large ease : it contains some must rare and beautiful coloured pheasant., which repre seats a warmer climate, and is a very pretty contrast to the snow scene. There are also two very handsome large glass shades, containing the richest coloured bird that has ever been seen ; one of them contains a great quantity of hum-' . ming-birds, some of them not larger than a bee, some worth as much as 101. each. Arranged übuut in various parts there are hawks, owls, parrots. What is most conspicuous is a peregrine falcon chasing a heron, both supposed to be pe susnded in the air. It is understo od that the peregrine' falcon was presented to Mr. Gardner by Lord Alfred Puget for his own cabinet, hut, out of respect to his lordship, h e I has placed it in the Exhibition. Indeed, this collection is very interesting ; it is often visited by very high per- I sonages. Though it excels everything else in the bird way in the Exhibition, we understand it is very little more than' half that was intended to he sent, as the space allotted him by the gentlemen of the office of 62, Cheapside, was 16 feet lung, which goods were prepared to fill that space, and at the Exhibition they could !not afford him more than 9 f. et length, which was the cau s e of many handsome specimens not being sent.—A CONI.TANT READER.
