ARCII/EOLOGIOAL INSTITUTE.—At the last monthly
meeting of this society, at their apartments in Suliblk-
street— Mr. Edward Hawkins, F.R.S., in the chair—
Lord Talbot de Malahide, president of the institute,
sent a report of the progress of the arrangements con-
nected with the Industrial Exhibition in Dublin, with
the object of combining with that great display an ex-
tensive assemblage of examples illustrating the progress
of manufactures and arts from the earliest period. From
the enlarged scale which the proposed Exhibition has
assumed, it has proved necessary to add considerably to
the original design of the building, and Mr. Dargan has
liberally consented to appropriate to the Fine Arts De-
partment a new and extensive structure. Here it is
proposed to exhibit the most extensive collection of the
remarkable early antiquities of Ireland hitherto pre-
sented to the archaeologist, in which the entire museum
of the Royal Irish Academy, and-the remarkable collec•
tion formed at the last meeting of the British Associa-
tion, at Belfast, will be combined with numerous choice
examples from private collections, so as to display as com-
plete an illustration as possible of the varied and singular
forms and the skilful processes of ancient manufacture
shown in the earlier antiquities of Ireland. The sin-
gular fashion and the richly elaborate decoration of these
objects are almost unknown in England ; whilst they
present numerous features, more especially in the skill
shown in the working of metals, which are well deserv-
ing of the close examination of the modern artificer.
Lord Talbot has also contemplated the desirable end, by
means of an extensive combination of similar objects of
antiquity, brought together from collections in England
and other countries, now for the first time to be produced
in juxtaposition with those of the sister kingdom, of
throwing a fresh light upon many questions which have'
perplexed the archlogist. The value of such a museum
as has thus been proposed by the noble president of the
institute is obvious, both in its bearing upon matters of
practical advantage and as auxiliary to ethnographical
and historical inquiries.

a clean, ruddy-cheeked butcher's boy, in the usual cos-
tume of his vocation, and had made
several advances in
five guinea strides, before anything belonging to him,
excepting his voice, had attracted Mr. Christie's notice.
No sooner, however, did the veteran auctioneer discover
what kind of costomer he had to deal with, than he bec-
koned him forward, with a view, no doubt, of reproving
him for his impertinence. The boy, however, nothing
daunted, put a small piece of greasy paper into his
hand--a credential, in fact, from the painter himself.
The auctioneer smiled, and the biddings proceeded."—

MILITARY FUNERAL OF AN OLD WARRIOR.—On Tues-
day last, the remains of Serjeant Grey, of the Royal
Military Asylum, Chelsea, were deposited in St. Luke's
Churchyard with military honours. The deceased had
been 27 years in the institution, a greater part of which
time he was master shoemaker. He spent his early ca-
reer in the 15th Hussars, in which regiment he was troop
serjeant-major, and present at the battles of Sahagun,
Corunna, Vittoria, Nivelle, Orthes, and Toulouse, for
which he had a medal. The sword that was placed on
the top of his coffin he always prized, having carried it
throughout his campaigns. In ono of these actions he
was seriously wounded, having been left on the field for
dead. He was a good soldier and an estimable friend.
No doubt his memory will be long cherished by the
children and inmates of the institution. He stood very
