ENGRAVING ON TABLE GLASS.—Several very
exquisite specimens of engraving upon glass, more particu-
larly in the utilitarian form of decanters, carafes, wine-
glasses, and entire dessert services, have recently left Eng-
land to decorate the tables of the wealthy potentates and
other luxinious denizens of the East, whom, it would
seem, as well as the monarchs and princes of the European
Continent, commission the London factories for this pecu-
liar and elevated order of art manufacture. The greater
proportion of these orders have been entrusted either di-
rectly or indirectly to the skilled artisans employed at "The
Thames Cut-Glass Works," the extensive show-rooms of
which, almost entombed in the river's bank, near Paul's
Wharf, Thames-street, we have been at some pains to disco-
ver. We were, however, amply repaid, through the courtesy
of their manager, Mr. James Green, for an hour so passed
amongst its really beautiful examples of glass engraving,
as we were not prepared to find anything like the high
character of ornamentation and correct classical form there
exhibited. These facts are worthy of publicity, as reflecting
the greatest credit upon the English workmen, who have
thus quietly and successfully secured an enviable European
reputation in this elegant branch of trade.--Globe.
THE FIENCH IN THE RED SEA. --A frightful
tragedy has taken place within the last month on the coast
of Abyssinia. King Negouziah, the rival of the Emperor
Theodosius, having been beaten in a pitched battle with the
Emperor's troops, has been putt° death by flaying, his body
being after wards suspended on a gibbet for two days, together
with the corpses of two of his most devoted followers.
France loses hi Negouziah an ally who had already given a
pledge of his sincere amity in his cession of one of the best
harbours on the coast. It is hoped that the French Red Sea
squadron will be increased, top revent any revocation of this
grant by the Emperor Theodosius. The bulk of the Abys-
sinian population remain friendly to France.—lndependence
