INING of the CRYSTAL i A LACE by her Itl,jasty the Queen, style of art, the execution having all the smoothen* and delicacy of marble. and the expression of the faces, especially of the Bacchanals, being wonderfully reutiered. Tha table and ceatro piece are deserving of notice from the curious principle involved in their construction. The letter is a plated ur silver plateau with a tabular surface for candelabra, but underneath is a series of levers diverging from the centre, and - working on a pin, and at their extremities supporting fruit dishes and decanters. During dinner these re main closely marshalled round the rim of the plateau, and supporting the dessert, but the moment the cloth is removed a gentle pull stretches the long arms of the levers, and the tempting fare is presented to the hand, almost to the lips, of each guest. It is' a great im provement on the old dumb-waiter, firstly, in being highly ornamental, and, secondly, in being simultane ously present at the elbow of each guest. The table is an elaboration of the :gime idea, the effect being to give it an expansive character, accommodating twelve, :eighteen, or twenty-four guests. The ingenuity of 'construction in this article is considerable, and the -effect rather surprising, when one sees a single twirl nearly double its original size Jackscn and Graham, 37 and 3', Oxford-street.

A display of scissors in a glass case, 4 ft. 6 in. by 5 ft. 6 in., with a carved oak frame, containing 230 pairs of scissors of every size and pattern, grouped and mounted upon a white ground. The centre object is a pair of huge scissors, 22 inches long, the bows and shank representing in outline two crowns, the upper one surmounted by a thistle. All the ornamental work is wrought with the file, some portions of the surface being chased. This object is by far the most 1 expensive pair of scissors ever produced in Sheffield. On each side of these appears another pair. One pair represents, in chasing, the bruising of the serpent's head; in the centre is wrought out with the file the Prince of Wales's feathers, and the bow is constituted/ of the emblematic group of the shamrock, rose, and thistle, and some curious scroll-work, all wrought out with the file. The department conveying the greatest amount of instruction to the general spectator is in the left-band lower corner. It illustrates the process of the scissors manufacture in ten distinct stages: 1. A plain piece of steel; 2. The mood, after the first pro cess of forging; 3. The forging complete; 4. Filed; 5. Bored and sharpened; 6. Ground; 7. Bow got up; 8. "Fitted; 9. Glazed; 10. A finished pair of ordinary barber's scissors. Over these objects there are spe cimens of print, woman's shaping, drapers', and nail scissors, all glazed; a pair of dandy's whisker scissors, with a comb fabricated at one side; a variety of lamp scissors, vines, flower gatherers, pruning and slide pruning shears, and horse trimmers, all with very long stems; massive tailors' shears and American ditto. The right-hand side of the case is headed with speci mens of fancy shaping and banker's paper scissors, hair and nail scissors, and a great variety for gentlemen's dressing-cases. In the centre of this side the most striking object is a pair of 16-inch fancy nail scissors, ornamented with etching; these, as their immense size suggests, are designed only for show. Beneath them is a group of surgeons' scissors, carved, angular, and distorted into every imaginable shape, for diffi cult operations. Included in the foregoing are all the ordinary and most useful varieties. The remainder, comprising about one-third of the whole collection, are all more or less or namented with the file and the process of chasing. Amongst them are a complete set of ladies chatelaine scissors, and about a dozen pairs representing di ff erent kinds of birds, the blades being the bill, the stems forming the legs, and the centre representing the body. There are also fifteen pairs of ladies' scissors, repre senting effigies of the eagle, swan, peacock, pheasant, butterfly, &c.; besides a lot of fancy shaping and mis cellaneous- scissor& -All the interstices are filled up with an endless variety. of useful ornamented scissors, including some of 'the smallest kinds used by artificial flyniakers. Amongst the curiosities there is a pair of scissors which, when closed, are exactly in the form of a dagger, and the joints are so delicately finished as to be quite imperceptible. Another pair represents The Iron Duke" on horseback, in military costume, politely bowing to an acquaintance Haan and Sohne, Coblenz and Moselkern, table covers Haarhaus, J.

(Incorporated under 7 and s Vict., cap. 110.) The leading principles of this Office era —Moderate and equitable Rates 01 Premium for each class of risk—Annual division of Profits. The difficulty of collecting the elements on which to proportion *remium to risk in Insurance against Loss by Fire has been so mat, that the rates at present charged are more the result of guess !ban calculation. It has been found by experience, that the total annual losses of the lifferent Established Companies : have not been proportionate to the +mount of annual Premiums received by each. It is of the highest importance, both to the Insured and Insurers, that such an anomaly should cease, and an approximation to the true risk be made. To secure this object the Equitable Fire Insu rance Company is established. The true rate C l Premium for Fire Insarance can only be ap iroached through lassification . and Average, which has not hitherto seen sufficiently acted n, or systematically applied. Whatever be the nominal rate; the bonus or return periodically to the Insured will determine the true Premium equitably payable, as ,earity against loss for so great a calamity as fire, and the Insurer s largely interested in this ~ucstion, and will consult his interest by ,upporting a system where, by a careful combination of Classifica ion and Aver go, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk. The Equitable Fire Office will, -by a constant anal% sis of its own xperience, from time to Lire, adopt such rates of Premium as the 4atare of the risk may justify. and-will decline to enter into ff... arrange nenta as regards tari with other offines. . .

LIFE DEPARTMENT.—Undo r the provisions of an Act of Par liament, recently obtained, this Company now offers to future in surers a I,w Rate of premium without participation in Profits; or a moderate scale of premiums with four-fifths of the Profits to be de rived from all Assurances hereafter effected. The divisions of Profits which heretofore have been made Septen nially will in future be made Quinquennially, the first of such divi sions to be declared in June 18,5, when all participating policies which shall have subsisted at least one year at Christmas, 1854, will be allowed to share in the profits. At the several past divisions of profits made by this Company, 'lle reversionary Bonuses added to the policies from one half the profitS amounted, on an average of the different ales, to about 1 per cent. per annum on the sums insured, and the total bonuses added at the four septennial divisions exceeded 770,000/. FOREIGN RISKS.—The extra Premiums required for the East and West Indies, the British Colonies, and the northern parts of the United States of America, have been materially reduced. LOANS granted on Life Policies to the extent of their values, pro dded such Policies shall have been effected a sufficient time to have Attuned in each case a value not under 50/.. In the FIRE DEPARTMENT, a Return of profit was declared n the sth of June, upon the premiums received on all Policies which had been in force seven years at Christmas 1849, and the same snow in course of payment daily (Friday and Saturday excepted), i,etween the hours of ten and three o'clock, at the Head Office; and also by the Agents in the Country Districts. GEORGE KEYS, Secretary._ CATHOLIC LAW AND GENERAL LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY, 8, NEW COVENTRY-STREET, LEICESTER-SQUARE, LONDON. The FOURTH ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of the Proprie tors of this Company took place on the 25th instant, at the Head Office, at One o'clock precisely. The following is extracted from the report, which is too lengthy for publication : During the past year no claims have arisen from deaths in England. and but two in Ireland—one for 5001. and the other for 280/. —making together 7001., which have been paid. This is far below the expected mortality, and is especially favourable, when it is remembered how severely the life offices generally suf f ered from the epidemic of last year. The number of lives assured between the Ist of June, 1349, and the 31st of Slay, 1850, was more than double the number issued in the twelve months preceding. Proposals were made for 138 Policies, amounting to 52,9631.25. 66.: of these 123, comprising 106 lives, were accepted for 45,1251. 6s. Sixteen Policies lapsed, representing 6,0481., upon which 3201. 3s. was received by the Company in the shape of premiums Since the commencement of the Company to the Ist of June last, assurances were effected to the extent of 110,9721. 125 6d., pro ducing in annual premiums 3,7321. 1 Is. 6d. Of these 54 lapsed, Amounting to 23,9901. 16s. 6d., of which the annual premiums were 7411. Is., leaving the yearly income on the Ist of June last equal to 2,9911. 15s. lid. Since last meeting loans were applied for to the extent of 17,7001., but 1,1831. I Is. 106. Only was advanced. The Directors were also highly gratified to report that within the last four months they had considerably extended their business on the Continent, having appointed, as Head Agent in France, Monsieur de I'Etaug, a gentleman of high standing in Paris, distinguished for his integrity and atrillty in financial and in all assurance matters, who, under the sanction and patronage of the Archbishop of Paris, the Cardinal ArChbish p of Lyons, and Monseigneur Paresis, Eveque de Langres, has already within the last three months effected a con siderable amount of business, not only in Life Assurances, but in An nuities both Immediate and Deferred. After various resolutions, approving of the Report, and returning thanks to the Right Reverend Chairman, Bishop Morris, the Vice- Chairman, Actuary, Secretary, and Medical Officers of the establish ment, the meeting separated, highly gratified at its present results and future prosrects.

SUBMARINE TELEGRAPHS.—The London and North- Western, Chester and Holyhead, South-Eastern, and other railways, are petitioning to be heard in Committee against the proposed submarine telegraphs, on the ground, it is understood, that the latter propose in their Bills to obtain exclusive privileges along the railways of the kingdom.

A vase of shell flowers. The story of its fabrication is interesting. She is reported to be a poor woman up wards of 40 years of age, and formerly laboured for years far below ground, in a coal-pit. She had the misfortune to fall down the shaft, a great depth, and sustained severe and lasting injury. Subsequently she married a poor fisherman of Southport, and is the mother of eleven children, eight of whom are still liv ing and around her. Her first attempt to contribute to the support of the family was, by making little models of cottages, churches, &c., and adorning them with sand and shells gummed upon the surface. With the money thus earned she tried to form shell flowers, but only in a small way, and with limited means, and by no means good materials, till one day her husband came home after a severe storm, and mentioned that he had found and left on the beach a branch of a tree covered with what ho called barnacles adhering to it. She requested him to bring it home, as she thought she could make something of it. She found the shells to be of a kind offering excellent ma terial for the construction of flowers. Each pair (bivalve) consists of two large and two smaller over lapping plates, and one long taper proboscis-like fila ment of shell. These her husband procures for her in large quantities; and having cleansed them and made them beautifully white, this ingenious and wholly self-taught artist proceeds to construct flowers from natural models, with a taste and judgment,whieli under the circumstances, are most extraordinary in a poor fisherman's wife. A person seeing some speci mens of her skill, ordered some more, which were to be of the most elaborate character, as they were des tined for the great Exhibition. She completed them, and learned, to her great disappointment, when de livered and paid for, that the purchaser deemed them his own, and positively refused to at tach her name to them. It was then too late for her to commence afresh and com plete any considerable work within the limited time remaining; but Mr. B. Fothergill, of S ou thport,be_alf at Southport, and learning her story , wrote to Thomas Bazley, detailing the circumstances, and through that gentleman's representations to his col leagues, the Royal Commissioners, he succeeded inob taining special permission for a piece of this curious shell-work to be received later. The whole work, mounted on a stand, and covered with a glass shade, is about 2 feet 6 inches in height, and will not occupy a foot square of table space. In a porcelain vase are grouped together a collection of exotic and other choice flowers, mingled with wild flowers and the blos soms of some of our flowering plants, trees, and hedges. The foot of the vase is encircled with a simply elegant wreath of the hedge or briar rose. The stems and leaves are produced from the makers of artificial flowers in London; and the artist has also procured thence the the pigments with which she tints the flowers with so much delicacy and accuracy as to make them closely resemble nature Johnston and Co., Bristol.

Toany oneone learns, for the first time. that these magical effects are produced by means of a lathe, and an immense number of minute edged wheels, with which these pencil-like touches are worked into the glass, the ' tinish' of the ornamental wreaths must be a matter of no small surprise. The perfection to which, under Mr. Kidd's direction, his workmen have brought this process, and the admirable adaptation of their tools (in itself a labour of years, and the fruit of long experiment and many failures) to produce the minutest tracery on the glass in the manner best suited for heightening the effect by the silvering, and the rich appearance of the finished work—have induced Mr. Kidd to use the expressive term ' embroidered' " King, Lowther-street, Whitehaven. Aldobrand's Cabi net. It is entirely composed of British oak, in three varieties, pale, brown, and black. Part of the pale variety was grown on the property of Captain Irwin, near Calder Abbey. The black was found by the Rev. Henry Lowther, embedded ten feet below the present surface of the soil, whilst digging a deep drain on some peat moss at Distington. The design of the cabinet was suggested by the description of that belonging to Oldbuck, in Scott's novel of " The Antiquary," and the details are intended to com memorate the early progress of the art of printing and the Reformation. The lower part, which is 5 ft. 6 in. by 2 ft. 6 in., contains, in the front, two deep recesses, with two drawers above, containing secret drawers, by way of keeping up the character of tha old cabinet. The two drawers are fronted by carving in light oak, surrounded by a carved moulding in black ditto. Externally, the front recesses present two Saxon arches of black oak with twisted columns, divided by a brown oak bracket.
