North London Working Classes' Industrial

Exhibition.

Yesterday Earl Russell formally opened the
above-named exhibition in the Agricultural-hall,
Islington, in the presence of an immense concourse
of people, all of whom were admitted by ticket at
the prices of 2s. 61. and ls. each. The noble earl
arrived at the hall at three o'clock, and was con-
ducted to a platform by the committee of officers
He was accompanied by Lady Russell and Lady
Amelia Romilly, and was enthusiastically cheered
as he walked up the body of the hall and took the
seat assigned him. Oa and about the platform
were the Rev. Daniel Wilson, vicar of Islington ;
the Rev. Robert Maguire, incumbent of Clerken-
well ; Mr Bodkin, the Assistant-Judge ; Mr Peter
Le Neve Foster, secretary to the Society of
Arts; the Reverend Canon Champney, Mr.
Digby Seymour, M.P., Mr. George God-
win, Mr. George Cruickshank, and Mr. Nicbo-
lay. On the noble Earl taking the chair, the cere-
mony commenced by a choir of 1,000 voices einging
the Old -Hundredth Psalm, accompanied by the
grand organ, which was played by Dr. Wesley,
organist of Winchester Cathedral and College.

Mr. WATTS, the hon. secretary, read a report of
the managing committee, composed of working men,
stating the circumstances under which the Exhibi-
tion had been set on foot. They were encouraged,
they said, to undertake it from the success which
attended a Working Man's Exhibition in the south
of London, and from a conviction that there was
much talent among the working classes which lay
dormant for want of fitting opportunities; for its
exercise and appreciation. They eventually resolved
to form a North London Exhibition, including the
districts of Clerkenwell, Islington, St. Pancras, St.
Luke's, Hoxton, St. Andrew's Holborn, and Blooms.
bury, but not excluding exhibitors from other parts
of the metropclis should the committee have suffi-
cient space at their disposal. It was to consist of
objects manufactured by the exhibitors, either as
specimens of skilled workmanship, or examples of
self-taught handicraft, and they had been greatly
assisted in carrying out the project by local com-
mittees. They at length placed themselves in come
munication with the directors of the Agricultural
Hall, who entered into the scheme in a friendly and
encouraging spirit, and offered them the use of their
large hall upon liberal terms. With the aid of Mr
Foster, the secretary to the Society of Arts, they
appointed adjudicators to award the prizes from
among the council of the Society. The committee
referred in passing to the success attending their
guarantee fund for carrying out the objects of the
Exhibition. The amount promised, if needed,
was £350, £5O of which had been guaran•
teed by Miss Burdett Coutts, and £lOO by
Mr. Samuel Morley. The exhibitors were 866
in number, and the articles shown by them
occupied 5,930 ft. of wall, 2,012 ft. of counter, and
1,750 ft. of floor. Tiae classification adopted was as
follows : let, professional workmanship-2d,
amateur productions-3d, inventions and novel
contrivances-4th, mechanical models-sth, archi-
tectural, marine,and ornamental models-6th, artis.
tic objects-7th, ladies' work of all kinds-Bth,
miscellaneous articles. These classes are thus re-
presented ;—Class 1, skilled, 233-2, amateurs, 98
—3, inventions, 91-4, mechanical models, 56-5,
marine, 30, and ornamental, 75-6, artistic, 165-
7, ladies' work, 75-8, miscellaneous, 85. It was
impossible to refer to all who had kindly assisted in
the undertaking, but special mention was made of
Miss Louisa!Pyne, Miss Leffler, Mr. Gayler, Mr.
Thomas, Dr. Wesley, Mr. W. H. Bellamy, and
Mr. Glenn Wesley, for their kind and gratuitous
services in the musical department.
At the conclusion of the report, of which the
above is a summary, the Chairman inspected the
exhibition. Oa his return to the platform,
Earl RUSSELL said,—Ladies and gentlemen, I
have to congratulate you on the exhibition which I
' have just been permitted to witness, It has given
