exhibition on Saturday, whi as numerously
and fashionably attended. tr: '-

Many domestic pieces of furnitwe aria made of .
paper alone; and house decoralkthisi can" .have :''i
nothing more ornamental than paper when it

It is also from this that our cuisiniers of the
present day form those captivating ornaments of
frizzed paper, which so delicately trim at the
dinner table our gigots, haunches, and savoury
pates, while many are the fair hands in our par-
' lours and drawing-rooms, which are daily in the
practice of designing certain clever little miracles
in the shape of fire-paper aprons, and minature
trees and landscapes, with no other aids than a
blank sheet of the above-named material, and a
fine pointed pair of scissors. But the art of
paper-cutting certainly never hitherto arrived at
such a maxim am of skill, as displayed in Captain
Barber's Kalorama, now exhibiting in Bond-
street.

The views on exhibition are styled " Ectemno-
pa-apliic" pictures, a word, which thotvgli it may

s imply what we have before described--" cut-
out" pictures. An analysis of the way in which,.
we presume, 'the artist proceeds. to forni these,
give the best notion of his new
style. Having a requisite quantity of paper,
he cuts thereout, with the scissors-point,
every imaginable part that is to constitute
the picture, into individual bits. The leaves

MARY LEBONE ELECTION.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SIR,—It is amusing to see the extraordinarpnanceuvres:
the Tories have recourse to, in order to catch to few stray"
votes to prop up their desperate cause. One of the latest
appears in this day's Herald, in an appeal to the i•eligious
Dissenters (in co-Aradistinction, as Goody says, to the
political Dissenters), for them to bear in mind what
.Lord
John llus.sell is supposed to have said, with referent e to
that highly respectable body the Wesleyans. It is pk v-
feetly unnecessary for any person, in June 1841, to ju.l-
- Lord John Russell, as to his conduct and feelings oft
the great body of Dissenters; he has always bcau, and
still is, their champion in tile great cause of civil axd
re-
li liberty. But in this self same article of the.
Herald, there is also a pitiable attack on a certain .17.)ea-
'eon of Paddington Chapel. It is well known in the
borough of Marylebone, that Lord Teignmouth's retunt
was secured by the support of the Dissenters; and it is;
equalltwell known at the present time (and hence the:
mortification of the Tories), that not one of the former
will vote for the present Tory candidates, having heartily
repented of the mistake they made at the last election,
and mortified and disgusted at the non-fultilment of those
promises repeatedly made to them on that oseasion. It
is not worth while to eater into a lengthened justification
of the conduct of the gentleman (the Deacon) before
alluded to. Upon a reference to the election of Alarvle-
j bone, it will be seen that he always voted for the Liberal
candidates, save on the above unfortunate occasion; and
las to the conjecture that he will be rewarded with the
office of churchwarden, for his exertions on behalf of Sir
Benjamin Hall and Sir Charles Napier, the writer of the
Morning Herald ought to know that the exercise of the
gentleman's present duties is incompatible with the ae-
ceptance of such an office, were there the slightest ground
for supposing it would be offered to him.
I am, veer obedient servant,
A CONSTANT READER, AND AN
1 ith June, 1841. OLD REFORMER..

LAUNCII OF THE TRAFALGAR.—Prepara-
tious on
,the.most iiberal scale are beir'r made for the
countless multitude expected to visit Woolwich on Men-
day. Her Majesty and Prince Albert will proceed by
I land to Deptford Dock-yard ; from thence they will
embark on board the Firebrand for Woolwich. Innu--
merable small boats, and upwards of forty steamers will
be employed for conveying persons. The whole of the ,
military off-guard will be on duty in the dock-yard.'
Captain Hornby, the superintendent of the dock-yard,
whose judicious regulations 'are most highly to be pra&sed,
will receive her Majesty and Prince Albert. The guard
of honour will be supplied from the Royal Marines, com-
manded by Colonel Conolly. Triumphal arches are in
progress at Greenwich and Woolwich, in expectistion
i Majesty that her may return by land, but this eau . .
only be speculation, as so much will depend upon
the weather. All the old sailors in G reenwiCh
Hospital who were at the battle of Trafalgar will be
stationed in the ship while she is launched. The
dockyard will be thrown open to the public. Those
only who have tickets will obtain seats. The yachts of
the Thames Club, the Admiral's. &c., will be stationed off
the dockyard. The bands of the Royal Artillery, the
Royal Marines, and the 15th Regiment, will be
in attendance ; dinners will be given at the
captain superintendent's, the master-ship-wright's,
and several other places. A number of convicts, whose
conduct may have been favourably reported to the Secre-
tary of State during their terra of imprisonment, are to
he released upon this occasion of her Majesty visiting
the dockyard. The Trafalgar is a 120 gun ship ; her
length, from figure head to stern, 246 feet 2 inches ; her
extreme breadth, 55 feet 7 inches ; depth in hold, 32
feet 2 inches ; burden, a fraction over 2,721 tons, old
measurement ; height, 61 feet 11 inches. The launch.
will be at about half-past two.—Obserrcr.
The city of Norwich is chewing the bitter
fruits of the gross corruption and venality which have
entailed upon the electors a character so depraved, that
gentlemen and men of honour are ashamed and afraid
to connect their fair names with a constituency thus no-
toriously debased. Nor is it vet known whether Lord
Douro or Mr. Smith have mustered courage to put forth
retire,
an address and appear. Report says (observe reader we
merely repeat the word of common rumour), report says
that our late representatives have mutually agreed

Pilon, employed at a colour-maker's, in the Rue St. Mar-
tin, was making some varnish the day before yesterday,
when the pot boiled over. Instead of •• using a wet cloth,
as lie ought to have done, he attempted to take the pot
off the fire. The liquid became inflamed, and, catching
his clothes, burnt with such violence, that itlthotigh
almost immediately carried to the Hotel Dieu, his body
was half consumed, and he expired a few minutes after
his arrival, in dreadful agonies. The premises caught
fire, and were not saved without the greatest exertions.
—Galinnani's Messenger,
The leading mind.; of Germany, France, and
indeed of the entire Continent, contemplate thwresent ,
free trade movement in England with the most profound
interest. It is indeed impossible to calculate the effects
which may yet result from Britain pulling down her
double Wall of restrictions and imposts. The abolition
of the feudal system—the introduction of the Represen-
tative principle into Governmentsp--thee religious refor-
mation of the middle. ages—the eeniblishmens of a freo
Press--great though their results have been,. will be intis
nitely sin-passed by the results of At. free and unrestricted •
