As our rondtors will remember another offort to rogain possession of the Amorien Cup was made just two years ago. Lord Dunvases Valkyrie representing the Union Jack and Mr. Gould's Vigilant the "Star Spangled. Banner." It is unnooosenry, under the eirenmatances, to go into details, nad it will suffice to mention that in two raons, one of which pranzhed to fall to the lot of the “Ohì Country,” and the ather to the States," the wind dropped and they had to be abandoned, while in each of the three which were brought to a definite conclusion the Figilant (which has just boen beaton, but with very little to spare, by the Defen- der in the preliminary trials) prayed victorious, the roupectiva margin being 5 min. 59 soch, 13 min, 30 ans, a1 12 sece. A pleasing feature of the contests was the free and open nokauw ledgment by Lord Dunaven and Mr. Watson that they had hoon beaten fairly and squarely, and that anything in the shape of partiality or favour was distinguished by its absence. Lot us hope, sa we have every reason to, that this coming mataher will be mailed in an squally straight and above-board menner. A. English- men we should of course like our own side to win but provided the third Valkyrie is benton on her merits, we are bound to aceeps her defeat gracionely, and must console ourselves with the hope that our luck may be bettor next time Arian.

essay on the subject of Chinese muff bottlès. 15, British str.

Archizes, Borison, Sept. 15, from opproaches his subjects generally from the "ethtrologiast point of view, prefering to con- sider the ralation that works of art bear to the customs and traditions of peoplo, than to' treat them as stepping stows in the history of technical development. Of course, that method of criticism is not entirely satisfactory to either the art statent or the colostor,,hus Mr. Huish dogg well in recalling both from their tendancy to forget the motive and remember only the beauties of the cbjects they prize. No articles" are more esteamed by the hire than snuť, bottles and ink pols. In each alike we fnd the most exquisite workmanship mail the finest materials. There is no variety of porcalain, from the commonest to the rarest, that is not illustrated in Chinese sauf bottles, and sa for the materials they range over camas class, orystal, jude, smothyst, copaline, 'chalcedony, kalotrope, sardonyx, chrysoprasų, agate, damasoened igen, and cloisonné enamel, Evidently anyone devoting himsel to the task of collecting these little objects many ho able to. obtain illustrations of Chinese art workmanship ou an almost árhánstito scale. Yet the under taking has never found many devotees; for the obvious reason than myllilady of such tiny wtensils con never sorve any decorative purposć. A few may be placed hero sad there in a salon, but the great bulk juust be treated na arò trostė coins or Japanese sword furniture, namely, put away in onjunts for the exefal inspection of patient connoimearn only. The history of porce Jain any bettles is, of course, the history of Chinesa carmice, and as to the history of enuff bottles marvel from precious minerals or nazivo glass, they have apparently no history that can he writion. Parasps in the hands of somme Chinese virtuoso there lies na illustrated maan- script describing and depicting the cojebrated anuff bottles of some vcs of art onthusiasm, and perhaps the document may yet come to light, sa did the volumes, discovered ten years age by Dr Bushell in Peking. Fat thers in not much room for a story when we have to deal simply with little receptacles for powdered tobacco, chiselled out of precious stones. It might be a matter of primary interest te the collector to know when jade, chryso- prase, or agato, or ismer glass wit fest ined for sack a purpose, but neither an illustrating the progroas, of art industry nor marking. the development of civilization in the Middle Kingdon, would the master justify serions ro asarch Mr. Halth has sail about nil that there, is to say, and said it in a very attractive manner.
