Although several notices of the more important exhibits in the photographic department have appeared in the columns of the Photographic News, it may be well, now that the awards of the juries have been made public (see our number of last week, p. 513), to call farther attention to matters connected with the exhibits, and touch on a few points that have, perhaps, not been sufficiently con- sidered. As to the awards, it is possible that few will doubt that they are well merited ; except, perhaps, some of those exhibitors whose inventive merit has been unrecognized. That Tailfer and Clayton should be awarded a silver medal for the step they have made in the early introduction of excellent isochromatic plates into the market is reasonable enough, and the other awards which have been made for plates (bronze medals) are undoubtedly well deserved, as we understand that a sub-committee of the jury took samples of the bulk exhibited, and thoroughly tested them. Of those who take awards in connection with photo-mechanical printing, W. B. Woodbury takes the highest honour, and we imagine that no one will feel other wise than that he richly merits the gold medal awarded ; while Dallas, Ives, Sprague, and others, as originators of methods, receive suitable recognition. Camera makers have exhibited excellent work, audit will be noted that the Jury has evidently had the strength, durability, and stability of the work in view, in specially recognizing the merits of the cameras and apparatus designed and made by G. C. Collins, George Hare, F. W. Hart, Marion, W. W. Rouch, and others. Among the apparatus medalled may be specially mentioned the roller slide of Eastman and Walker, exhi bited by the Eastman Dry Plate and Film Company, of Rochester, New York (silver medal). This apparatus may (without any detraction from the merits of those who have previously worked in the same direction) bo regarded as the first roller slide adapted to the every-day requirements of the photographer. Well deserving of a gold medal is A. A. Common, who has identified himself so much and so successfully with astronomical photography; while E. W. Foxlee, in his series illustrative of the continuating action of light, has produced something which might be regarded as a synoptical view of the principal difficulties'which beset the work of the carbon printer. The metallic spectra photographed so successfully by Professor Hartley repre sent much labour and care, and it is to be hoped that he will continue his labours. The importance of photography in its most satisfac torily permanent form—as vitrified on enamel or ceramic ware —is well recognized by a silver medal to A. L. Hender son, and a bronze medal to O. Walery : while in connec tion with the production of unfading photographs (other than photo-mechanical) the dward of one gold medal to G. W. Swan, and another to W. Willis, will be looked upon with satisfaction. Another pioneer, whose gold medal is well deserved, is B. J. Sayce, who, together with W. B. Bolton (member of Jury and disqualified from recognition), originated the collodio-bromide emulsion process. The historical exhibit of the Photographic Society has been already mentioned several times, and a complete list of the objects shown has appeared in our columns, so we need do no more than say that the diploma of honour represents the highest award the Jury could give. G. Poldireff, of St. Petersburg, who takes a bronze medal for his excellent—although somewhat strange—studies taken by the light of a petroleum lamp, might perhaps have had a silver medal without going beyond the justice of the case. Nothing less than a gold medal could have been given to Ross and Company, as a recognition of their high position as makers of photographic objectives from the earliest time. It seems that no other award was made in connection with optical appliances for photography, but it should be mentioned that Dallmeyer did not exhibit. A. Spiller takes a well-deserved medal for his method of developing with hydroxylamine, a method likely to come into general use when this base is manufactured on a large scale. Horne, Thornthwaite, and Wood, as a firm that has borne much of the heat and labour of the day in connection with photographic apparatus, take a medal, while L. War- uerke, who has made such excellent progress in many matters photographic, is honoured by a silver medal. Some other matters in connection with the Exhibition must stand over for future mention. COMPOSITE PHOTOGRAPHY AND CERAMIC IMAGES. Interesting remarks on this subject are made by W. Cave Thomas in a recent number of Knowledge, and as the matter is very suggestive, we reproduce it here. There is, perhaps, a larger future for composite photography than is thought of by either Galton or Thomas. It was stated in a former letter (1,739) that at the Antwerp Art Congress, about the year 1860, I proposed to demonstrate, by the presentation of a number of individual images of the same kind, in rapid succession to the eye, that the resultant generic impression would be more pleasing than any individual instance —to demonstrate by experiment, in fact, that the mean is the measure of the ideal, of the beautiful. To prove this, however, it is not absolutely necessary to have recourse to human forms ; the fact can be as well illustrated by the use of geometrical figures. Knowing the limits of differentiation of the ellipse, we are enabled to experiment with a series of ellipses, or even with
