ances entailed by my position. Anyone who has seen our exhibitions must admit that we have for the foreign exhi bitors a care that our French exhibitors would be glad always to meet abroad. To assure your countrymen, I can inform them that some of the best English photographers at the International Exhibition wished to exhibit in the French section for the only reason that they could depend upon my care and atten tion. At the close of the International Exhibition, my honour able colleague, Dr. Diamond, Secretary of the London Society, informed me rather late of the special exhibition then contemplated and now or lately open. I thereupon gave orders to stop at once all packing, and took the necessary steps among the French exhibitors, notwithstand ing the derangement and trouble both for them and myself. If through being informed too late the result was not so complete and perfect as I should have desired, at least I did all that was possible. Now, sir, shall we be wrong in counting upon a just reciprocity? I do not believe so. Sir, I hope that this answer, published in your journal, will suffice to change the consequences of*a charge which, I regret, I did not see earlier. I am pursuaded the London Society will act as we would act under similar circumstances, and, with yourself, will do us justice. No, sir, I do not doubt it, for I have met amongst your countrymen many true gentlemen, and have considered the meeting to be simply natural and not an unusual piece of good fortune. I count, sir, upon your honour for the prompt insertion of this answer, and beg you to receive the expression of my distinguished consideration. M. LAULERIE. Secretaire-A gent de la Societe Fran^aise de Photographie, Rue Drouot, 11, Paris. P.S.—Mr. Vernon Heath having an agent at Paris, ought to find it very simple and just that we expect him to send and take his frames, and I insist above all that he sees them in their actual state and admit that we take for our exhibi tors precautions that are not always taken elsewhere. Uhe Euternational Gxibition. REPORT OF THE J URY-ON PHOTOGRAPHY AND PHOTOGRAPHIC APPARATUS* 3100 Horne and THORNTHWAITE (H.M.) contribute a variety of cameras and lenses well adapted for general use. Powell’s registered stereoscopic camera, possessing the utmost degree of portability combined with efficiency. Schaw's camera is also well-suited for tourists : an instantaneous shutter on the principle of the guillotine is very ingenious and well adapted for its purpose. Various other articles are ex hibited, all of which are characterized by general excellence. The chemical contributions are fine, and the specimen of chloride of gold is probably the finest in the Exhibition. 3111 Leake, J. C. (H.M.), is the inventor of a convenient and portable dark tent of very moderate price and considerable efficiency. The principle is simple and good, but the example exhibited had not been made with suffi cient consideration to the temperature to which it would be exposed, being considerably warped and twisted by the heat. 3120 McLean, Melhuish, and IIaes (II.M.).—A variety of apparatus of general excellence is exhibited. Portable cameras made of metal for combining perfect rigidity with lightness and portability; Lieut.-Col. Shakspeare’s simul taneous camera, in which an extra lens is attached to act as a finder, so that when a proper focus has been obtained by this lens, whilst the sensitive plate is in situ, exposure may follow immediately after, without the delay which is usual where the ground glass has to be withdrawn and the holder containing the sensitive plate inserted in its place. A variety of lenses combining facilities for lengthening and shortening the focus, to render them suitable for landscape as well as portraiture, are also exhibited. 3128 Murray and Heath (H.M.).—This firm, which has lately passed into the hands of Mr. Heisch, chemical lecturer at the Middlesex Hospital, ex hibits apparatus of great excellence. A copying camera, with a variety of convenient appliances, and capital workmanship and material; camera-stands of bamboo cane, combining great height with lightness ; a chemical chest, or portable laboratory, with complete equipment for use ; Smartt's dark tent, which affords considerable convenience as a portable dark room, is so fitted and arranged as to secure every facility for operators engaged in landscape photography; other apparatus exhibited by this firm coinbine all modern improvements in design with great care in the goodness of the workmanship. 3125* Meagher, P., (H.M) exhibits a variety of cameras, camera-stands, * Continued from p. 106, stereoscopes, &c., of very great excellence in design, material, and con struction. The seasoning of the material is stated to have received especial care ; the skill shown in the contrivances for the convenience of the photo grapher, and the workmanship and general finish possess much excellence. In addition to other modern cameras, Mr. Meagher exhibits a tourist’s camera intended for stereoscopic pictures, or for plates 7 inches by 5 : the body is of the bellows form, expanding from 32 to 10 inches, being applicable for the short focus of quick-acting stereoscopic lenses or the Dallmeyer's triplet. Six dark frames accompany the camera, and the focussingjglass is attached— a great convenience in out-door operations. It is altogether a most con venient, economical, and portable instrument, very well adapted for the combined purposes for which it is intended. Mr. Meagher is the manufacturer of the excellent cameras originally de signed by Mr. Kinnear of Edinburgh; he manufactures largely for the dealers in first-class apparatus. 3129 NEGRETTI and ZAMBRA (Medal) exhibit a variety of photographic camera and stereoscopes of very great beauty in design and neatness of work manship. In stereoscopes their specimens display great variety and elegance. The revolving stereoscope, exhibiting many slides in succession, is a very desirable application ; other apparatus are also contributed by this firm. Reference will be made elsewhere to their beautiful transparencies and book illustrations. 3133 OTTEWILL, T.,and Co. (H.M.).—This firm send samples of their well- manufactured cameras, consisting of folding cameras, trunk cameras for the operating-room, binocular and other stereoscopic cameras, together with many other useful photographic appliances. 3136 Ponting, T. C. (Medal).—A medal was awarded to this exhibitor for the excellence of his sensitive collodion, a reference to which has been made in speaking of Bland and Co., who exhibit samples of his manufacture. 3149 Ross, T. (Medal).—A medal was awarded to Mr. Ross for the ex cellence of his photographic lenses. These include a variety of forms for different purposes, all of which are of very good quality. The portrait lenses comprise various examples, possessing great intensity, good definition, and great rapidity, yielding negatives of considerable beauty, prints from which are exhibited. The single landscape lenses are unsurpassed of their kind. A stereographic double combination is very rapid, and well suited for taking instantaneous views. The orthographic lens, constructed on the formula of Professor Petzval, is well adapted for the delineation of architectural subjects and for copying flat surfaces ; all these lenses have their chemical and visual foci coincident, and on trial proved highly satisfactory, fully maintaining the reputation of a house which in 1851 received the only award for lenses espe cially manufactured for photographic purposes. The chief novelty manu factured and exhibited by Mr. Ross is a panoramic lens and camera, invented by a gentleman who has contributed many ingenious novelties to the art. It is novel in principle and results, giving pictures which include a lateral angle exceeding 100 degrees. Mr. Ross also contributes examples of a great variety of excellent apparatus in which the form and workmanship are of first-rate quality; they combine all the most approved appliances known and used in the art. 3150 Rouen, W. W.—This exhibitor sends a series of valuable apparatus and chemicals. A portable operating chamber, described as Edwards’s New Model Tent, combining great portability with convenience and efficiency, differing in many of the contrivances of a similar character in the ample room afforded in the part immediately over the head of the manipulator, materially con tributing to his comfort. Another well adapted portion consists of a small water-tank placed outside, a pipe from which, with spring tap, enters the tent at a convenient corner, being always at hand for the ready use of the operator. The tent is in every respect admirably contrived to meet the wants of the amateur photographer. Various cameras are also exhibited. A well-contrived portable laboratory ; an instantaneous shutter ; dippers for the bath of pure silver; and other photographic requisites. Mr. Rouch also contributes samples of bromo-iodized and other collodions made according to Mr. Hard- wich’s formula. A medal was awarded to Mr. Rouch for kis series of small photographs, which are stated to be produced in the tent referred to, and with the same kind of collodion and chemicals he exhibits. 3155 SKAIFE, T. (11. M.).—Mr. Skaife is the inventor of an ingenious minia ture camera described as a "pistolgraph,” the productions of which he terms pistolgrams. The lenses are very small and exceedingly rapid, and well fitted to the production of very small instantaneous pictures, to which aid a clever instantaneous shutter is attached. The pictures are glass positives sealed between two pieces of glass, which are then ground by the lapidary, and fitted into mounts for various purposes. The representations are generally those of babies, and every phase of infantine expression is accurately depicted by the means that Mr. Skaife uses. 3158 Solomon, J. (II. M.), exhibits, in addition to a good general display of apparatus, a great variety of excellent contrivances for the aid of the photographer, amongst which may be mentioned a cutting table on which to trim and shape photographs. It consists of a slab of thick plate glass, fitted on a frame, and moving on a centre: the glass slab revolves whilst the photograph and glass shape remain unmoved, which facilitates the operation and prevents the slipping or disturbance of the shape. Also a strong iron camera stand of great utility in the operating room ; an ingenious holder of the plate during the process of development; a new pneumatic holder; a collodion pourer which prevents the possibility of impurities ever falling on the plate ; a dropping bottle on a good principle ; a convenient dark tent, and a variety of other appliances ; the whole showing considerable ingenuity and well deserving of attention. 3161 Spencer, J. A.—Various samples of albumenized photographic paper. These papers are carefully prepared and salted in different proportions, to suit the purposes for which they are especially intended. Mr. Spencer manufactures very extensively for some of the leading firms in this country. 3187 Wright, Dr. II. G. (II. M.).—The complete portable apparatus com bining a dark tent and all requisites for operating in the room or open air, which pack into a parcel easily carried by one person, was invented by Dr. Wright, a physician in extensive metropolitan practice, with a view to the facility with which it might be carried into the sick room and assist in the delineation of the various aspects of disease. It is equally well adapted to the purposes of landscape and stereoscopic photography. It is altogether a skilful and valuable contrivance. Austria. 671 DIETZLER, C. (Medal). 679 Voigtlander and Son (Medal).—These two names may with great propriety be associated, both having received Medals for the excellence oi
