The unflinching determination and punctuality with Whitit the executive committee have hitherto carried out all the regulations which they have found it neeesaary to make, have bad a striking effect in urging all chasms of exhibitors to complete their arrangement& It was announced a week ago that on Wednesday the temponiry entwine into 11w building fur carts, waggons and carriage% of every deaeiption would be elemeSto enable the thawing 'of the building to he completed. The regulation was rigidly enforced, and on the following day a rather numerous train of people, who cling to the belief that there is always " time enough, " found insurmountable ob stacle% iut • be worn their oas and the ver, that most of rrri hythr n > cr app umeei sneeteded in effecting a satisfactory removal of their goods into the building. phis firninesson the part of the executive committee has already produced marked change in the asiwet of the hoardings de voted to foreign nation+. 'flue arrangements for the display of goods are now quickly advancing to com pletion in must of them. In the American spats they are "going ahead" in earnest, and in the French, Belgium, and Austrian compartments con tinuous (lints are being made to advance their ats mootmem& In the Lento al passage a very fine equem trial group has been erected within the last week. The subject jail mounted horse attiakedby a t iger.The group is u copy or one in bronze, while is pined in front of the lk rliu MIP4 urn, hut the material used is dif ferent, being sine, covered with (sipper. It has been executed by Ikrr Kiss, of Berlin, and the cast ing is by (kiwi. A colossal lion in bronze, which has berm forwarded from Bavaria, is also fixed on its fedestal in the central avenue. In nearly all the oreign compartment+ an increasing activity pre vail& Greece, however, is an exception. The gomia already forwarded are insufficient in point of quantity, and, as regards quality, will fail to Btu-trate advantageoualy the products and the customs of that country. Au abundance of genuine materials to supply the hiatus are, how ever, easily obtainable in London, and we have no doubt, that under the able anperintendance of its cononksioner, Goers will exhibit a collection of products worthy of itself. The executive commit tee issued a notice, lust night, to the effect that pocking VIM'S IMISt be removed from the building by the exhibitors on or before the 10th of April. lu certain exeeptional cases, where goods might be in jured by premature unpacking, they will be allowed to remain, but, maternity speaking, if not removed. they- will be kohl, and the proceeds will he added to the general fund. On Satur day lust, an immense number of agricultural implements were forwarded to the building. Not withstanding the large amount of space allotted to this class of articles, it has been found necessary to erect extensive stages at several points in the en ehisure, for the porpoise of obtaining un increase of room for the neyption of the implements. since Ow 2nd instant the juries have been indelatiguble in earning out the neiesaary inspection and eompari sun in the trial yard. in lirompton-lane, at the rear of Gore House. The further working trials will take ewe on Monday, on Mr. Pusaya estate, near Reading. On the English side of the building a vast deal of labour has lien t :piloted dining the week. In the machinery department, Robinson's sugar-cane crush ing Dunhill,• has been crested, with a smaller one by Collings., for the stone purpose. Collinge has also a . Sour dressing machine, a double - acting steam s.. etinhos, and a printing machine, all of which are exquisitely benutital pieces of mechanism. A paper cutting machine from the Watford iron-works, a marine engine of ItMn horse-power ' by Morley, and I.OIIIW lace natclinii•ry. by . Malin. of Nottingham, are Amongst the new ertetions. In the galleries and in the familial -tint nta allotted to furniture, agricultural implement.. woollen manufactnres, &c., the work of eempleting fittings and counter* goes un 141114. It is again neteasary to revert to the subject of the payment of juror& By reference to the report of the meeting hocks held by the Stuffivelahire Pot teries: VOll 111 l itttV. wt' find that, after haling nomi nated four gentlemen to serve as juror for the Pot teries at the Brat Exhibition, the question arum.• us to the payment or non-payownt of these functionaries. In store of the manufacturing districts difficulty has been exiariemed in *electing competent persons for jurors, the mist practical men being incapacitated. by their position as exhibitor& from serving. Thin being the emw, the propriety of reconsidering so im portant a port of the M•hCMC ns the constitution of the body withal is to ass aril prizes to a competing indus trial world would %t an obs l o in. The qucati tttt can competent jurymen be found to serve fur the honour of serving' Against this propodtiou two paid. , have been urged. viz., that those men e lm from their sit-v fortime and great prietiewl know ledge might fairly became adjudicators, are generally incalawitated by having become competitors , : nod that those nun who have equal practical knowledge. hut lau'k pecuniary- means. can not afford to give their Bow to the matter. If a auffivient number of eompetent uon-eumpeting menu factoring and scientific authorities can le found to give up their time to the office of industrial jurymen, without requiring pecuniary remuneration. it is ob vious that their gratuitous services should be grate- fully welcomed ; but the grave point to be solved without delay, is, ern so much high-class gra tuitous labour be enlisted? Exhibitors who are mainly intereated in this point, are assuredly wait hug tlw final conelusions of the executive on it with some inqaitienee. It' it were possible to secure the servites of men equal to those gentlemen who are recommended to serve as jurymen in the metropolitan sections of fine arts and Crass 27 of manufacture& the question of the competency of they tribunals would probably he set ut rest. In the metropolitan maim of fine arts the persona recommended are— the chairman. Sir Moses Nlontetiorei the deputy chairman. Professor Cockerell, ILA.; Lord Aahltmr tom. Mr. Alderman Salomons, Mr. Wpm. ILA.. and Mr. IViekes. In elae. 27, manufactures in mineral pubstancea used for building or decoration, Mr. W Tite. Mr. Itu tttt ing. and Mn, George Godwin, have been named : and in class 7 the jurors recommended me -for civil engineering contrivances, Mr. W. Tierney ('lark and Mr. Edwin ('lark: for architectu ral and building contrivances, Mr. C. Fowler and Mr. J. J. Seolisc Some person of a jocular turn had recourse to that old uld scheme of creating April fools on the first day of the current month, in eo ttttt , xion with the Exhibi tion. In this instance fictitious cards of admission to the building were issued, prier one shilling. and signed " E. Nixes." These worthless cards were pies lilted by credulous purchasers at the gate + of the Exhibition ion Tuesday lust without as ail. From the rice which the dupe% appear to have paid for the joke, it is °talons that the humourid by whom they were iietimiseil had MUM regard for his pocket than for his reputation. Suggestions continue to flow in. Among thew, a notion set forth by Nlr. Joneph Colefax. of Brig house. /war Halifax, is not unworthy of conaide ra- Bon. It may probably cause a depression in the anticipitions of the light-fingered society of the met ropolia ; and by its adoption many a poor tra veller to the greet show may save himself from the nuplussaut predicament of finding his year's sating abstracted from his pocket in the CIMISC of his ' journey to Ityde-park. The main points of the plan are there : That there shall he a deposit bank instituted, either un- 1 der the manatimnent of the executive committee of the Great Exhibgton, or the immt•diate sanction of govern- , went itself. At this bate:, parties on entering the metro- ' polis might leave what rash they did not immediately re quire, and draw daily what would serve for their expendi ture. Every depositor, on paying his money into this bank, bhuultl receive a pass book or cheque book with his country . and town address written therein, and have credit given him for what he had deposited. Est ry, depositor' should also sign his name (if able) opposite to his account, in the book kept at the hank, as a receipt whenever be I drew anything. If not able to sign his name, he should I have a ticket givih him with his name written on, by the hunk clerk who rec. iced his money, which he should be instimted to keep separaL from the bank book on his per son, and produce it wit never he applied at the bank. Hy • these ttivanr, if a pickpocket or other persons applied at the' bank with a book which did not belong to lam, he could • not draw anything , bee note he would either have to imi tate very elowly the signature of the real owner (winch it is not natural to suppose would he a sureessful fraud), or to • pro .• owe the ticket sup pose to the r• ,I 1 owner, which woold fie rate- - Ultima to come at if carefully deposited in at , vacate ooe:tet. . _ _ . - -- - From France a suggestion for a Parisian exhibi tion in the course of the ensuiir , autumn in the Palace of the Tuileries, of articles from the London Great Exhibition, is suggcsted; and subscriptions are already being raised by the manuflieturera of Lille, Itoubaix, Valenciennes, and Turcoing, to carry this object into effect. Fraikaateekhalabsave has reached to the effect that a ph a-oure excursion from that city to Paris and London, has just been organised for the beginning of June, and that 500 persons have taken tickets. Every day we receive additional prnols of the in temst winch foreign governments are taking in the Exhibition. Already the committee of sixteen ap pointed be the Prefect of the Seine (France), to attend to french interests, halve appointed a deputa tion of sixty intelligent workmen to visit the Exhi bition and report on it ; and from Paris we learn that an Indian manufacturer, Naid-Ramayana, who inhabits the town of Chog, in the Valley of Cash mere, has arrived in the French capital with a mag nificent set of Cashmere slag Is bur the Great Ex hibition. From Vienna we have news to the effect, that the Emperor of Austria intends to exhibit a magnificent carved book-ease (containing a quantity of unpub lished national music of the Irsth century), which he will afterwards present to the Queen. The exhibition gossip of the week includes "one of those unkrtuttate accidents that sometimes frus trutes labour ut the point of success" which hap pened to U sla rinncn of decoration, by Mn.l M.Lachlan, of St. James's-street. A gust of wind blew the article in question from a van, upon which it had been placed, and it was broken to pieces. The labour of months was lost in a minute; but other gosals from the Saine hand are to occupy space in the Glass Palace. The Data News of this morning has the follow ing : " It is said that the arrival of foreign specimens of numulacture and art intended for exhibition at the Crystal Palace proves more tardy than might have been anticipated. Whether it la• that our continen tal neighbours arc less punctual in their ways of business than we are accustomed to decin it essential to he, or that in the first eagerness of national com petition some of them were led to over-estimate the space their exhibitors would require, it seems as though they were not quite prepared to take prompt occupation of all the accommodation liberally allotted to them by the impartial administrature of the forth coming Exhibition. "Nor are our transatlantic kinsmen as quick in their movements as one would have expected them to be. After vehemently insisting upon a spacious tract of I unoccupied territory, which was of course to be ex- 1 elusively theirs. we have 'want that the materials wherewith to till it arc still wanting, We hope they are not likely long to be so; and that no wag may be tempted to inscribe " Oregon over again." above the American gaudier. To the latest hour that the gates canbe kept open, we trust they will be. for the reception of foreign produets of all kinds : but bring "up to time" is an indispensable rule of all joint enterprises and combined movements, more especially these whose scale of magnitude transcends the ordinary sacpsaisese of men. And our worthy neighbours must not complain if, in so far as they fail to observe the conditions upon which they have been ins ited to display their wares. they are unable: alter the prescribed period of admission shall have prueed, to Mad room left for them. There is already no lack of domestic competitors who would be only too glad to avail themselves of the forfeited comportments; and after summoning the curious all nations to behold, the inimagers of the NVorld's Fair would justly be had inexcusable if tlwy suffered a single stall to remain empty. " Another doubt, equally unforeseen. mid of a very different character, la said to have arisen in the minds of certain wise, busy pmplts connected with the management of the undertaking. A well-known artist, celebrated alike for his versatility of arthi- Its:tonal design and his taste in the sphere of what is called ecclesiastical decoration, early applied for and obtained an appropriate nook wherein to anunge the gorgeous emblem. and accessories of the Roman catholic ritual. We for bear, for obvious reasons, to enumerate the %Wiliam forms and shapes of crozier, chalice, alb. and stole, which the restorer of an dent cloisters and beautifier of modern clenwls may have wished to set before the gaze of a believing and unbelieving throng. It is enough to say, that, in accordance with the usual arrangements of the building. and of course dcs. sirons. like his more worldly eo-e shibi t ionists, to protect the objects of his care front hieing prematurely sullied by the much-dreaded plague of dust, the gentb man Aided to availed himself of the boarded screen which each comixtrtment is permitted to make use of, under certain 'sanitation.. The story goes that a well-known member of the governing commission,' whose zeal is not always according to knowledge, having caught a furtive glimpse of a gilded candle stick, and being persuaded that he perceived at the same time a very strong smell of brimstone, deemed it his duty to report the cireumstawo forth with to the authoritiee. who thereupon. yens rumoumE met in condave, and deliberated. with becoming gravity on the affair. it has not transpired whether they resolved to open diplomatic relations with the insidious artist. or whether they decided upon simply adhering to the indiscriminating rule of perfect free dom in all matters regarding an enterprise whose name alone testifies its universality of suffrage and of sympathy. We only know that the chinks m the hoarding have during the last week been more religiously stopped up: and that the distinguished individual who peeped in has not been seen within a quarter of a mule of the suspected cellever since the discovery he. perhaps inadvertently. maths. "But. jesting apart. we thinkfwe may congratulate all true lovers of the useful. the peaceful, and the good upon the steady progress towards completion of this noble enterprise. Difficulties of all kinds there have been front the outset, and the most per plexing those which nobody had dreamed of. and against which it would have hem; wholly impossible to guard. But they have thawed away as the hour of proiniv approached ; and now. within stew weeks of the great remise° long looked fortard to by multitudes in different parts of the world—the managers of the gigantic scheme may well feel Justified in the con viction that its triamph is secure. Nothing remains but to reiterate the hoice we have so frequently ex pressed, that in the spirit wherein they began they will continue steadfast to the end, knowing no diS - tinction of persons. of nations. or of opinions. but contributing by the most splendid of instrinive dis lays to convince the world of the fully of its long -cherished jealousies, animosities. and ca dmium."

A ttin optric lantern, a dioptric lantern, a microscope, and a sketching camera. The first of these articles is Beechuy's patent. As a scientific instrumeut it has claims to a power, variety of effects, and simplicity unequalled by any other lantern. The microscope claims nu novelty, except that it has the new lenticular achromatic prism, invented by A. Abraham and Co., as a substitute for the mirror in examining hoed or test objects, combining the advantages of the achromatic condenser with a mum intense illumination than obtained by the usual concave mirror. The camera is intended for held sketching. This camera will enable the artist to make a sketch 12 inches square, and it is so portable that it may be carried in the coat pocket. Atkinson, Dublin. Mahogany jacquard poplin loom. Lea yes, 1.R.C.5., Newark. :Six-omen of a new process of taxidermy or stuffing of animals, by which a perfect mus cular statute is obtained, illustrated by a noted foxhound from the Raiford Hunt. Dirkin, Alderman, Nottingham. A new lace machine. The machine is constructed upon tue lever principle, and bus extraordinary piked, 'wing calculated, when in full operation, to accumplich about 130 motions a minute. The cameo, which is of east iron, was produced by Messrs. Reyton and Savage, of New Leutou. though the machine, iu it. completeuew, has been built on Mr. Birkin's own premise: , at Lanford ; its value is upwards of Gag. The jacquar d : apparatus is ou the Manchester principle, and contains several new adaptations to the production of fresh patterns Bantus, Langley, Hull. A geometrical staircase. The height is 22 feet 11 inches, and it is supported only et the tepenti .botteet, admitting a ametlete ,pf parsons et go up and doWn at the same time without coming tato collision. The hand-railing is constructed upon an en tirely new principle by being cut at right angles to the edge of the rail. Cochran and Proven, Glasgow. Two vases; one of them is an Egyptian nuptial rase—the re are Itgures in basso rellern to represent the various stages of the ceremouy. Tlav figures are drawn by Mr. George Mosonan, the or naments designed by Mr. Steele, Lula the vase itself by Mr. Thomson, of Messrs. Baird and Thomson. 'the Necond vase is Italian in conception. The figures in re lief are intended as ideal ri presentations of all nations that furnish material fur the exhibition. Thin design is Mr. Mosemuis. Thu casting of both is by Messrs. Miller and Ferguson. Colbert and Sans, Great Queen-street, Loat.. The Dio ropha carriage. Cornforth, John, Birmingham. A piece of iron telegraph wire one mile Mug. Cattle, 'Lanes Beverley. A washstand. Clarke, J., Junes, Birkenhead. Mattel of a I steam boat. The vessel, which is called the Prince of Wide'', has been the work of 16 month* . application, and we are disposed to think that a more elegant and exact model of a steamer will nut find its way to the Exhibi tion. The model is laid down to the scale of half au inch to a foot, and the idea is, that it should farm the model of a steamer of 200 feet keel, 30 feet beam, 1131 feet depth of hold, 101 feet load line, register 032 tons, engines 400- horse power, and the speed 14 knots light, and 12 knots deep, immersion. The chief thing sought for in this model is to obtain the lines of a fast-going steamer Win blued with great carrying powers, and this object, it is believed by those peteone who have inspected the model, has been succissfully actomplished. The same Made and exactitude applied to the hull have been carried throughout the design. The vessel is furnished with Ferrer and Robinson's patent steering wheel, Gladstone's windlass, Porter's anchors, patent gun-carriages, patent ballast-box, and all those improve ments which a ship can pewees. The whole of the cord age is properly made to scale, each strand being laid sepa rately as in a ship, and then worked up into shrouding. The compass acts truly, the bell has the whip's name en graved alma it, the night-lights are fixed as directed by the Admiralty regulations; mid so minute has been the care in preparing this model, that the nags have been embroidered to scale. She is also fitted with lifeboat and other essentials. The yesiel has two chimneys, hire and aft, fur separate sets of boilers. She is fitted with Mor gads vaunt prom-nue improved. The flouts or paddles, by this 'plan, leave the eater vertically, preventing that lift of water which attaches to the OnninUlt paddle wheels, and which makes a serious difference in the rate of speed. This patent is coming auto use, being applied to all tliti Holyheal hums except the Columbia, and it is also being introduced into the West India mail steamer*. Dundyvan Inn Works, Glasgow. Large east iron bell. Dowhiggin and Ilolland, London. A magnificent carpet,' inanulaeturcd by that liens by command of her Majesty. It is a velvet carpet, made utter the design of M. Gruner, and consists of it variety of rich arabesque forms and wri Alt, of flowers made to r semhle nature, surrounding a delicate and exquisite centre piece, in which is woven in Roman letters the year WI. The colours in the wreaths of flours are remarkably tine, and are arranged with the greatest possible taste; and although the colours employed are of the richest and most beautiful character, they are all so perfectly well balanced as not to permit of any one ur more colours distracting the eye, or destroying the calm antlagrecable ensemble which pervades the whole of this admirable, production. The dimensions of the ours are 41 het 1 11 17 hat: pod It le intended to be mot to the Exhibition, with a variety of other articles of feria tua, or an equally high character. Driver, Jaime, Wakefield. A novel timepiece. Dalton, John, Ibillingwoeth. Machine to print calico on both sides.

The distinguishing feature of novelty in the constructiint of the machine consists in the adoption of a new description of revolving cylinder, instead of the twills try from cylinder, whereby the inven tor is enabled to di-pens entirely with the use of the blanket and lapping, and to produce a more uniform im pression from the engraved roller. A saving of one third its power, and the avoidance of blanket seams, lap ping marks, and other disadvantages attendant upon the pneent system, are also effected. English and Son, Milsom-dreet, Glasgow. Cabinets and "bracket-lights." Euglislie Patent Camphinc Company, Hull.

Jackson, Lizabeth, 47, 11astbank-street, Southport. A vase of shell flowers. The story of its fabricator is into resting.Ske is reported to be a poor woman upwards of 40 years of are, and flamerly laboured for years far below ground, in a coal-pit. She hail the misfortune to fall down tier shaft, U. great depth, and sustained severe and lasting injury. Subsequently she married a poor ti.herunin of Southport, and is the mother of 11 children, sight of whom are ,till living and I her, ller first attempt to contribute to the support of the family was, by making little models of engages, churches, dec., and adorning them w:th sand and shells guinineh upon the surface. With the money thus earned she tried to form shell flowers, but only in a small way, and with limited mains, and by no means good materials; till one day her husband came home alter a severe storm, and mentioned that he had uud aud left on the beach a branch of a tree covered .th what he called barnacles adhering to it. She re t.. estcd him to bring it home, as she thought she could make something of it. She found the shells to be of a kind altering excellent material for the construction of (lowers. Each pair cbiralve) consists of two large and two smaller ov.srlapping plates, and one long taper proboscis-like filament of shell. Thew her husband procures I'm her in large quantities; and having cleansed them and made them beautifolly white, this ingenious and wholly self-taught artist proceeds to construct flowers from natural models, with a taste and judg ment which would be rich gifts in any station of life, but which, under the eirettrustances, ore most ex traordinary in a poor 1141mo:tit's wife. A persoa seeing some specimens of her skill, ordered some more, which were to be of the most elaborate character, as they were destined her the great Exhibition. She corm& ted thm, :mil learned, to her great dikappsditttuent, when delivered and paid for, that the purchaser deemed them his own, and posi tively refused to attach her name to them. It was then too late for her to contnteuce afresh and cum . .. . . !den , any considerable work within the limited time re maining; but Mr. B. tothergill, of Southport, being at Southport, and learaing I n ce story, wrote to Mr. Thomas Baz:ey, detailing the CITC111114:111fefi, and through that gentleman's represeutar ato hie colleagues, the royal folllllliSsiUllefsi he succeeded in obtaining special permis rims tor a piece of this curies shell-work to be received later.

Thu Rea entertained by some of the corriputsira, that, by I charging the Exhibition rxeursionists double the amount charged with so mud' profit to other exeursionist=, they will double that profit, is puerile : they not only will not double it, but they will not equal it. The cheapness of the fare was the sit: qua um of that profit ; surely the most fatuous miser might now he able to comprehend that fart. As t h e all the ditferents• between the special attraetions of the Exhibition itself, and those of previous or other rxeur sions, the companies will find that neither Cocker nor Stocker will bear them out in their colt ulationa on that score. The personal expense arc a heavy drawback, which it would he well fur the railway eompanic , not to east the scale against altogether. Their cue 111 rather to rmootlt the way—to tempt towards the incurment of that expenac —by excurelon fares more than t.ually low, in place of more than double the ta:ual amount—a gross error in self-interest.— The Builder. THE GREAT LIVEHPOOL Liverpool, or at least it- model, was neatly packed in se veral huge wooden Lose., and on saturday removed from Mr. Milner's rooms to he taarwarded to London, rid the Lon don and North-Western Railway, to-day. When it has been located eon its allotted space in the Crystal Palace it will be cmnpleted under the superintendence of Mr. licks', who, with two or three of the Liverpool workmen, will accompany it to the metropolis. It will, of course. take smite time to put it together and finish, to that it will be attractive amid the variety of the World's Vale, The miniature streets and dock quays have yet to be clothed, so no to repre,nt the busy Luna of life and hu sinews, send this is a minute operataon which will require a great deal of skill and patience. We have Laura al luded to the "model men," and we may add that so com pact are they that 1,090 of them are contained in one of the smallest sized pill boxes. The cars, omnibuses, waggons, lorries, goats, eke., have also to he placed, and, though equally diminutive, arc essential to complete the ,gentral eth,et of the model. Last week the workmen presented Mr. Bah. with a silver snuffbox as a token of his kindae..s and iudefatigable zeal in the work he has undertaken. We be lieve the successful completion of the neylt.l so far is mainly due to him. The remainder of the imports will also be for warded to London to-day. It may out be out of place again to direct attention to the state of the fund suhacnbed. The model and imports, it is evident, will cast upwards of I,OOOL, pa:1.114.91,20a, and even should it exceed that amount the contribution will be teilliag compared with other towns of less pretensions. We should also bear in wind that Liver poul.ph fledged itself at a large and intim utial meeting in the town-hull to support the Great Exhibition. The fund is some 500/. deficient, and we understand that an effort will be made during the week to make up the de ficiency.
