LIST OF EXHIBITORS

IN THE
CRYSTAL PALACE.

The following List does not profess to be a com-
plete catalogue of exhibitors at the approaching Great
Show, but is offered only as the most perfect state-
ment at present obtainable.

(Continued from The Sun of yesterday.)
Crummuck, Edward, Tower4trect, York. Specimens of
ivory, tortoiseshell, and horn dressing C)17,1b3, the
product of hand labour

Collins, models of machinery
Chutlesworth, E., Curator of York Museum. Series of
objects illustrating a new process of mounting and
preserving specimens in zoology
Constable, H., Brighton, a model of the battle of Tra-
falgar, in wood. He commenced the work in Delarch
last, by forming the hulls first, and next fixed the bolts
for the rattling. Ho then fixed the decks on and
mounted the guns, which.took him a long time. Next
he made 146 anchors, the figure-heads, and the rudders,
the ornamental work on the sterns and cabin windows
being the most tedious task. The rigging is of thread,
most skilfully arrange]. The frame 7 feet long and
3 feet wide. Each ship has her anchor dropped; and
there will be a buoy attached,
which will appear to
float; and these buoys will be marked with numbers
corresponding with a card or book of reference. The
ships are to be in mrtion; -antr-the subject, Lord
Nelson's mode of attack on the combined fleet off Cape
Trafalgar. The number of skips required to complete
the model is 73, and ea'.l ship will carry the proper
number of guns.

Daniell, Wig more-street, Cavendish-square, and of New
Bond-street. Two dessert services, the exquisite beauty
of designs of which, together with the purity of the
tints, and the skill displayed in the manufacture, will
doubtless procure as much notice and commendation
in the Crystal Palace as have already been bestowed
on these works in New Bond-street, where they have
latterly been on view. Connoisseurs in china ware
will not require to be informed that in the reign of
Louis XV. a new colour was produced at Sevres, the
loveliness of which charmed everybody at the luxu-
rious and polished court of that monarch, and, either
in compliment to the lady or to the tint, it was
forthwith named the Rose of Dubarry. All efforts
to copy it out of the celebrated manufactory
where it was invented signally failed ; and
even there such was the difficulty and preca-
riousness experienced in producing the genuine
pate tendre, which was best adapted for it, that the
use of the colour entirely ceased in 1769, twenty years
after its discovery. Various attempts have been made
of late years to revive this precious tint, but it was
found impossible to diffuse it evenly over the surface
of the article; and it has been reserved for the
manufactory at Colebrook-dale to solve the problem.
In one of the services to which we have alluded
the genuine " Rose Dubarry" appears again in its
pristine loveliness, and in fact it surpasses in evenness
of tone the best specimens of the original artists. The
softness and depth of the glaze in this service also
deserve notice; and the design, in which a group of
dolphins plays a conspicuous part, is remarkably bold
and felicitous. Altogether it is a complete triumph
of English art, and will probably meet with no rival
from the most celebrated establishments of Europe.
It has already found a purchaser in a noble and dis-
tinguished patron of the fine arts. The other service,
which has also been manufactured at the Colebrook-
dale Works, has been designed for the head of a noble
family of historic name. It is remarkable for the
richness and elaborateness of its design; the fruit
dishes. being embossed on the reverse—a novelty
which demonstrates the great progress which has been
made in this department. The gold decorations and
chasing are of peculiarly excellent workmanship, and
the armorial bearings of the noble house for which the
service has been ordered are cleverly introduced.
Dufaur and Co., Hastings. Collection of agricultural
implements, constructed under the patents of Dr.
Newingion
Dickens,
Thomas, Middleton. Model of a warping mill
Dobbin, Falkirk. An improved barometer. The smallest
divisions on the dial are not less than one-tenth of an
inch,
.though each of these answers to the thousandth
of an inch in the rise or fall of the mercury. It pre-
sents twoindexes—the one of the common range, and
the other pointing out the thousandths of an inch, and
it has two registers, moveable from the sides. Above
the dial is a superior-looking thermometer, with the
scales of Fahrenheit and Reaumur
Dawson, North British Colour Works, Edinburgh.
Specimen of prussiate of potash
Dodge, Exeter. A hunting boot
Dusten, Devonport. New invention for setting hand-
saws
Dearlove, Leeds. Two musical instruments. The one
is a miniature violin, atter Antonio Straduarius.
Although only 44 inches in length, this instrument
is perfect in all its parts. It is smaller than the cele-
brated petit violin of Mons. Jullien. The other in•
strument is a double bass, a model of what a 7 feet
6 inch double bass should be ; and yet its extreme
inches
Dyne, is only 14
Dyne, Wm., London and South Coast Railway Com-
pany. Various inventions. The Eclipse, or Stan-
derd Life-boat. It is formed of diagonal battens, laid
similar to that of lattice work, and its outer sheeting
is formed of gutta percha; its buoyancy is 350 cubic
feet of air, capable of sustaining upwards of 9i tons.
It has in its bottom 3,600 holes, half an inch in dia-
meter to allow all water shipped to pass off ; it has a
convexed bottom 30 feet long, 2 feet wide, and 111
inches deep, in which are placed three perforated fins,
for the purpose of steadying and keeping the boat in
an upright position, acting when the boat lurches from
either beam similar to a paddle-wheel, a reaction
taking place through the perforated parts, which will
be seen to multiply its weight of water to four times
its amount. In this convexed part, and between the
fins, is contained two tons weight of water, which
must be displaced therefrom before the boat can turn
over; but such will be almost impossible, it being
more than half the weight of the boat; but, as a pro-
vision against such a lansentatable disaster, she turns
over on her quarter 16 cwt. of water, which rights her
again. It may be remarked that the 2 tons and 16 cwt.
of water referred to is not one ounce weight to the
boat when in her upright position. At the stem and
stern, and on each beam and quarter, is run a bow,
to which is connected
galvanised springs, which will
not corrode, and will be found of the greatest utility
in the event of collision, which act similar to that of
railway buffers.—A Gutta Percha Life-buoy, for the
rescue of individuals from drowning, or to enable a
stranded vessel to communicate with the shore. It is
intended to be placed at the stern of the ship, so that
on an alarm being given " A man overboard!" the
man at the helm can dislodge it instantly, and as it
falls into the sea a fuzee becomes ignited, which burns
with a brilliant light, guiding the sinking /min to it.
Should it occur at night, four upright are placed upon
it, containing rockets, blue and other lights, which
ignite on bring drawn out, thus acting as a beacon to
the crew.—An Emigration Life-boat, intended for a
first-class vessel, of the following dimensions; 20 feet
long by 14 wide. It is united by strong bolts, and is
very portable from the mode of its construction,
which allows it to be folded up in the compass of 20
feet long by 2 feet 6 inches wide. Oil occasion of
shipwreck it is capable of supporting 100 persons, with
provisions for seven days, allowing to each individual
two and a half pounds of food and one pint of
water per day, in addition to. which it may be
made available for a portion of the cargo, and can
be put in requisition in a
.few minutes.-_A Life
Launch, rendered buoyant by inflated cushions placed
under the gunwale, which protect it from injury when
coming in contact with rocks or the sides of a ship in
being lowered for use. A boat constructed on this
principle, from 25 to 30 feet in length, contains up-
wards of a thousand gallons of air, and would support
600 persons, were it possible for so many to attach
themselves to it. The boat is also furnished with a
