E. Milsom esq. for a pair of pictures. Nos. 19 and 25, a ditto ; J. H. Ravenshaw esq. for a picture, No. 6, an album elegantly bound in morocco ; F. S. Schwabe esq. for a picture, No. 1, a ditto ; Bev. J. Freke for a picture, No. 25, a ditto. Dry Plate Prizes. F. Beasley esq. for a pair of pictures, Nos. 87 and 100, a silver goblet; J. H. Ritchie, esq. for a picture, No. 4, a large album elegantly bound in morocco with silver name-plate ; R. Murray esq. for a picture, No. 12, an album elegantly bound in morocco. Stereoscopic Prize. J. S. K. Moss esq. for a pair of pictures, Nos. 63 and 66, a large revolving stereoscope. Certificates of Honourable Mention were awarded to the following gentlemen:— W. Church esq. jun., B. Jones esq., A. Suzanne esq.. Dr. Hemp hill, W. H. Harton esq.. R. B. Bowman esq., T. Brownrigg esq., Dr. Wilson, Capt. C. Taylor, J. A. Jobling esq.. Mrs. Daubeny, J. C. A. Bones esq., R. Hassard esq., J. Richardson esq. The Council were gratified to find that Capt. Bankart, who was prevented from exhibiting at all last year, has again sent a large number of his fine 12 by 10 pictures. Capt. Taylor, though he has not succeeded in taking a prize this year, has contributed some remarkably interesting life studies taken in India, amongst which his portrait of the “ Great High Priest of Brahmin,” is particularly worthy of notice. Lieut. Senior has sent from India a very large number of most interesting pictures, amongst which there are no less than thirteen of the highest class. Mr. W. D. Howard still holds his place in the very highest rank, both as regards artistic arrangement and excellence of manipulation. Dr. Hemphill, for the first time for five years, has failed to carry off a prize, though one of his pictures, “ Lady in Antique Dress,” is quite equal to some of the prize pictures of former years. Mr. E. R. Hall has sent another of his unequalled engraving copies, the original print of which cost nearly two hundred guineas. Mr. Milsom has sent from China some 10 by 8 pictures of considerable merit, illustrating the architecture and scenery of that distant land. Major Mason has forwarded a series of native Indian portraits, which are quite an acquisition to the Society. Amongst our later members are several who bid fair to hold a high place in the Association, foremost of whom may be men tioned Mr. J. W. Richardson. Several of this gentleman’s pic tures possess that combination of “ crispness ” with extreme softness and delicacy of tone which, though always sought after, is so seldom attained. Mr. W. Baily, too, has contributed some pictures of game, which, in delicacy of detail, leave nothing to be desired.' The Secretary reported to the meeting the result of an inter view he had had with Mr. H. Cole, C.B.. of the South Kensing ton Museum, relative to the “British Museum of Portraits;” but in consequence of the examination of the pictures having occupied so much time, the subject was adjourned for the con sideration of the next meeting. Dr. ARTHUR Fabre proposed a vote of thanks—which was passed by acclamation—to Mr. Glaisher for his valuable report, and for the vast amount of time and attention which ho had bestowed on the examination and classification of the pictures. The proceedings then terminated. A. J. MELIIUISII, Hon. Sec. Uorrespondence. CLEANING THE HANDS. Sib,—It is generally admitted that the use of cyanide of potassium for tbe above purpose had better be avoided, though I have used it for many years, until recently, without inconveni ence, and have only given it up even now because many have suffered from it. It appears Mr. Carey Lea has introduced a formula for removing silver stains from the bauds, in which bichromate of potash is a prominent ingredient; I suppose, under the im pression that no injury can result from its application, if I am not greatly mistaken, bichromate of potash is quite as dangerous as the cyanide, having a very deleterious action on the system when its solution is frequently brought in contact with the skin, producing sores, which, like those caused by fluoric acid, are very painful and difficult to heal. It is truo the solution is dilute, but, unless I am proved to be in error, I shall be very unwilling to “ wash ” my hands in so suspicious a mixture.—I remain, &c., J. H. Johnson. The Vicarage, Tilshead. [Bichromate of potash is by no means an innocuous agent, although not such a violent poison as cyanide of potassium. It has no directly injurious action on a healthy skin which is free from cut or abrasion. If it come into contact with the mucous membrane or an abraded skin, great imflammation will result, and, in some instances, serious sores follow. Any agent, however, which can be used to remove silver stains will bo more or less injurious, if brought into contact with an abraded skin. M. Gaudin’s mixture is very effective, either applied to the fingers (not cut) or linen. It is—Alcohol 1 ounce, iodine 24 grains, nitric acid and hydrochloric each 20 drops. The stain, having been treated with this preparation, is next sponged with strong hypo, which at once removes it. We repeat the following, communicated to our pages, two or three years ago, as an excellent means of cleansing the fingers from silver stains, by Mr. M. Whiting, Jun.:— “ Put half a pound of glauber salts, quarter a pound of chloride of lime (the sanitary disinfectant), and 8 ounces of water, into a small wide-mouthed bottle, and, when required for use, pour some of the thick sediment into a saucer, and rub it well over the hands with pumice-stone or a nail brush, and it will clean the fingers quite equal to cyanide, but with out any danger. This will do to use over again until exhausted, and should be kept corked up. The disagreeable smell may be entirely avoided by the liberal use of lemon juice, which not only removes the smell, but whitens the hands. Rotten ones may bo used, and answer well.”—Ed.] PHOTOGRAPHERS’ RELIEF FUND. Sib,—Many as the suggestions that have been written in your Journal of lute respecting the organization of a Relief Fund, I think none of the correspondents have set forth such a good,'sound theory as that mentioned by yourself last week. I am strongly disposed to believe that any attempt to classify would end in failure, for the fund does not want dissension to contend with at its birth; assuredly there will be enough diffi culty to surmount without touching upon that theme. Let all who think of doing any service to the cause put aside all ill- feeling, and should they have a prejudice against any certain classes, this should never enter into affairs of aid and support. Now I am of opinion that whatever a man may be as regards social position, and he conducts himself as a respectable member of society, and connected in any way with photography (from apparatus-maker to albuminizer), he should be considered an eligible candidate, for it must not bo forgotten that “ unity ” is strength. Without interfering with selections, every member should bo compelled to give some guarantee as to bis respectability ; for instance, employes could do this until the society was formed, then the new members be introduced similar to the method now in practice with photographic societies. Would it not be as well for those gentlemen who have so kindly promised support to deposit their money and form a committee for the purpose of thoroughly investigating plans for future management ? My humble opinion is, that there should not be simply one fixed entrance fee and annual subscription, but several, and the bene fit received to bo in like proportion; by so doing those in indifferent circumstances would not bo excluded from making some provision for their unfortunate days; whereas, should the subscription bo great, it would deter them. All who really and sincerely have the good of their brethren in misfortune at heart will never raise cries of inequality, for those who may now be high up the social ladder may one day find themselves at the bottom. The above remarks are not written with the idea that they aro faultless, but simply in the hope that those who criticise them may bring forward some more efficient plan.—Yours, &c., A. M. B. [For the purposes of a benevolent fund all sums, either as subscriptions or donations, will bo acceptable, and all persons properly recommended would be eligible for relief, the validity of their claims being decided by the committee in office for the
