In addition to the beautiful works in silver which ‘we noticed yesterday, from the manufactory of Joseph Angell, there is one which is particularly deserving of the attention of all who take an interest in artistic works in the precious metals. This is enclosed in the fame care which will be found on the gallery oceu- pied by the English exhibitors. It is a massive piece of silver plate, about twenty inches in length by twenty in width, intended to commemorate that great cvent in the industrial bistory of the world—the London Exhi of 1852+ In the centre the Queen is ceiving contributions from the four continents; Asia brings her silks; Africa, skins of wild animals; America, buffalo skins; and Europe, a sheaf of wheat, emblematic of agriculture. {n the front of the group is old Father Thames, the tutelary deity of England's great river, laving his limbs in its wa" ters. The value of this excellent piece of work is $732. It may be interesting to our readers to un @erstand the process by which this kind of work is |. The solid masa of silver is first moulded or beaten into tho required shape, after which the Gesign is rudely sketched out upon the wrong side. ‘That side which ia intended for the face or front of the shield is then placed upon a block of pitch, and the parts on which the prominent figures are drawn, hammered until they are forced out from the sur- face. The details are then brought out by the chisel. Among the principal exhibitors of silver plate in the English department are the Messrs. Garrard, (the Crown jewelfers,) of London. The principal object Bi bis case, and that most worthy of notice on ac- count of ite extreme simplicity yet beauty of design, is @ large candelabram, or centre ornament for the table, for nineteen lights, weighing above 2,000 ounces. It is in the pure Alhambra style, with an appropriate group, modelled by Mr. E. Cotteril, an artist of well-known celebrity, representing & scene from Walter Scott’s “Talisman,” viz.: the meeting of Saladin and Sir Kenneth at the fountain | the year 1600. bow arrived at the knot of palm trees, and the foun- tain, which welled out from teneath their shade in sparkling profusion; some kind generous hand, ere yet the evil days of Palestine began, had walled in and arched over the fountain to prevent it from being absorbed by the heat of the sun or choked by the flitting clouds of dust with which the lesst breath of wind covered the decert,"” At the back of the case, and not less wortby of notice, are two groups, from the skilful tool of the same artist, the one to the right representing Sancho Panza introducing the Duchess to Don Quixote as Princess Micomicana. Sancho is represented, (in accordance with his ideas of chivalry,) on his knees, holding the bridle of his ass— the faithful companion of all his troubles—in his hand, in the actof introducing the Duchess, who in her turn relates her strange story of having been despoiled of her dominions by an invading giant. The artist has been very successful in delineating the tall, raw- boned form of the horse, a8 well as the lank, lean figure of his master, who is supposed to be lis- tening with strange credulity to the fabulous story of the Duchess. The group to the left represents Arabs of the desert tracking travellers by their footmarks in the sand. This is, also, one of the able productions of Mr. Cotteril, the horses being exact models ot the pure Arabian breed. In front and to the right of the case is a large ewer, intended for a sidebeard ornament, with a group on the body representing Sioux Indians hunting the bison in the prairies of North America. To the left is another ewer, rather smaller than the pre- ceding, the group illustrative of the challenge. A knight, having thrown his gauntlet, points at it in defiance of a rival; he is attended by his page and armor bearer. At present, in this case, but which | in a few days will be placed in a case by itself, is a | grenades. tock bleck welent, inlaid with tvory.

Esq., of Boston, and was manufactured for him by the Messrs. Garrard. We have mentioned a few of the principal articles exhibited by the Measr 3 Garrard, besides which they exhibit also several articles of useful as well as ornamental plate, such as candelabra, entrée dishes, claret jugs, dessert dishes, a handsome teaset, enriched with Persian orna- ments, consisting of six pieces, namely: teakettle, teapot, eoffeepot, sugar basin, cream ewer and milk ewer; also, another of a more simple pattern, consist» ing of five pieces: teakettle, teapot, coffeepot, sugar basin and cream ewer; also, two large handsome twenty-four inch tea and coffee salvers, and a richly chased silver inkstand, with medallions of Holbein, Copernicus, Faust and Erasmus. The whole of these articles are in sterling silver. The council medal was awarded by the jurors of the great exhibition of 1852 to Messrs. Garrard, for excellence in plate and jewelry. ARMS FROM THE TOWER OF LONDON. Among the many curiosities exhibited in the Crystal Palace, there are none which will attract more attention than the arms from the Tower of London. They are preparing for exhibition, and will be ready in a few days. For the following sketch of the history of firearms, and the eatalogue which is appended, we are indebted to Mr. Julius Kroehl, engineer :— Shortly after the invention of powder, men found it ne- cessary to use this explosive material for propelling | heavy bodies sgainst their adversaries. Forthat purpore | they wed tubes, closed at one end and often at the other, nto whieh tbey put the charge and fired it off by means ofa match. According to the size of the projcetiles they were called fieldpicces, such as cangons, mortars, howit- vers, and smallarms, euch as muskets, guas, rifles, car- Dines, and pistols. The first firearms repoited to have been employed, wee used in the battle of Cressy, in 1346; they were call- ed cannons but are not believed to have been more than The {iret cannons were made of @ good many iayers of linen were by iron hocps. In the latter part of & com ozitien of copper and tin was in. troduced, whicti was called gun metal: snd which is atill used. Gustavus Ade'shus, the great King of Sweden, ured in the Ibirty Y. War, cannons which consisted of long strips of iron, 0 closely together aud bouad | by iron hoops apd leather, two of whicl are still to be | een at the arrenai in Deslin. rhey are called “ieather capnons.”” The smaliarms are divided in_ smooth and ritle bores; rities have been u+eo as early ae 1581, for we find that ia thi year the free city of Augsburg prowised to farnish the German Emperor with thirty rifles in the wars with bis varsuls. Men bave always been endeavoring to im- prove vton the manner of fring their arms. The pieces might be divided into mareblochs, wheeilucks, firelocks or guns, percussion ed needie guny. Te first gums were fied with matches, like the common cancun. This beixg a ve.y tedious ork, # small hammer wus attacbed to the gus and @ slow match fasteced to it; by puiling the trigger the liaminer was brought down to the pan ad so ignited the powder: henoe they wee ealled mateblocks. The wheellocks wer’ toveoted in the year in tue free city of Nuremberg, a place celebrated for the industry and ingenuity of ber cisizeus.

Holmes, superintendent of the machinery department, his assistant engineers, and the several workmen under their directions, supported by a police force subject to instant orders, competent to work the elegant and powerful engine on exhibition by the manufacturer, Mr. Wm. Jeffers, of Pawtucket, R. I., who has kind- ly offered his beautiful machine for the use of the department during the exhibition season. This engine stands in the open space in the north nave, near the dome, and is capable of throwing water to any part of the Palace. Each section of the build- ing is supplied with four large hydrants, with two lines of hose to each hydrant (and an extra hose for the engine,) on the lower floor. The galleries are supplied with three small hydrants, and fifty buckets of water in each of tie four divisions, There are also twelve small hydrants on the lower floor. For the further and more complete protection of the edifice from fire, there will be tanks in the higher portions of the two eastern towers, capable of con- taining one thousand three hundred gallons each, which will be supplied with water by a steam force pump, from pipes connecting with the main pipe on Fortieth strect. These tanks connect by four-inch pipes with all the lines of hose and hydrants in the main building, giving a constant head of about twenty-five feet higher than the average level of the water in the reservoir. In the machine arcade there will be one large hydrant in the centre of the building, with eight amaller ones—four on the lower floor, and four in the picture gallery, on the upper floor—each supplied with hose, as in the main building. In addi- tion to the above there will be two powerfal engine force pumps, to be driven by the steam engines in the machine department—one a rotary pump, by Mr. J.C. Carey; the other a centrifugal pump, furnished by Mr. W. Lee, of this city, which can be put into immediate operation in case of emer- gency. There is also a city hydrant on Fortieth street, and one on Forty-second street, which can be brought into service if required. The members of the department will be designated by badges, bearing the initials of their respective offices. A model of a brass cannon, composed of four pieces.
