AMERICA N CONTRIBUTIONS.

We announced last week the arrival off Cowes of
the United States frigate St. Lawrence, with the American

eontributioni to the tin.mt Exhibition. The second day
after her arrival she wm towed into Southampton Docks,

and had a quay berth allotted to her. This w•as neer...7ury

on account of the bulky and heavy nature of the

she had to land. The crew have been working daily ever
since landing the eontributimts she has brought, and their
labours terminated on Tuesday. The American contribu-
tions brought by the St. Lawrence are eontained in about

ion pasha a. They weigh betwecn 200 and 300 tom..

They till a store in the Southampton Docks about
12• i feet in kngth and 3. feet _ broad. The pack-

Igo; are all and shaper. Many of them are

of small size and weigh only a few pounds. Some care weigh
about 13001b5., Wilts., or 23011 w. On Tuesday afternoon
the principal specimens of metal ore were landed. Amongst
them was a splendid specimen of copper ore, weighing
2,5111b5. Thin was almast pure copper. There Wall also a
fine 'pi vimen of iron ore, but the greatest curiosity was a
monster dock of sine ore weighing about eight tuns; about
70 men were employed half an hour in raising it from the
hold of the vessel and landing it on the quay. It was lifted
by means of the capstan, which MO manned by 52 men,
who were working it in measured step to the shrill
music of a fife. This was a curious sight. The

tramping of the men round the capstan, the music
of the marine fifer, the making of the tackle, the hoarse
bawlings, and the sounds of the silver whistles of the boat-
swain and his mates, in giving orders while the gigantic
lump was imperceptibly rising from the hold of the ship,
were very singular. The rine ore came from New Jersey,
and is cubical in its form, and measures shout four feet in
height. Tho copper before spoken of came from Lake
Superior. One of the greatest curiosities among the Ame-
rican contributions is a packet landed on Monday, which
consisted of an air.exhausted metal coffin, iu which a human
body could be preserved for ages without undergoing the
slightest change towards decomposition. It contained a
bouquet of flowers, which is as fresh as when it was first
plaeed there. The variety in the American contributions
is very great. Amongst the packets are specimens
of all kinds of inventions in machinery, such as
lathes, and planing and weighing machines, mills, &c.; in
agricultural implements, such as ploughs, winnowing
machines; life boats and buoys, anchors; carriages, harness,
musical instruments, perfumery, wigs and other head
dresses of hair; fancy soaps, cabinet works, india-rubber
goods, tire-arms, stained glass, chemical instruments, pegs
tic the bottoms of boots and shoes, patent and tire-proof
paint. There are specimens of all kinds of minerals and
mineral ores, such as steel, copper, iron, sine, and samples
of coal. There is also a variety of minerals, to accompany a
map of the State of Virginia. There is a large quantity of
glass from Massachusetts; also specimens of Australian
wheat in the straw, of tobacco, cotton, seeds, cod liver oil,
blacking, patent iron safes, catawba wine, stationery, books,
IssAbinding, oak tables, spring chairs, picture frames, look-
' ing glasses, pilot bread, wafer and soda crackers, soap
stones, specimens of flour and preserved meats, and of a
self-acting safety valve. There is also a specimen of the
. standard weights used in all the states fur weighing the
• largest and must minute quantities. Let us turn at once,
' however, to the following
