Europe. The national Pottery Company, Of
Bennington, Vermont, have on exhibition porce-
lain, Paran, lava and flint ware, made wholly
from American productions. These various ma
terals are shown In their crude state and com
pare fayorably with the best found. The arti-
cles on exhibition are arranged on a tile floor,
which covers space Of seven square feet the
tiles being lnlald with varigated colors, in imi-
tation of mosaic. Upon this floor stands

letters patent for the celebrated flint enanelled
ware, which has since found ITS way into almost
every part of the world. On exhibition besides
articles from Vermont material, are rich wares
from the same kind OF material found in many
other States. Some of the best artists have en-

them equal to the best Of the sort found any
