A number of samples ef teeth, soldered upon a gold hase, were exhihited hy divers parties, some of them highly finished uud eredimblo specimens of the ort ; but those of merit the committee were satisfied were not wholly executed cither in the laboratory of the exhihitors, or under their immediate supervisinn, thus giving no personal evidence cither of professional skill or workmanship to the committee, who, therefore, do not feel justified.in deciding upon their merits. Ae Teeth without pain.—To Dr. Edwurd Belle, for an ingenious apparatus for the application of cold to the tecth and gums, during the process of extraction, benumbing the ucrves nnd periostium, so as to render the removul of teeth pninless. ‘The committeo have witnessed the prnetical application of this process, nnd helieve the mnchine an excellent one for the purpose designed, in all cases where it cnn be properly applied.

One stand of fancy urticles, in glass, of Culiforuia manufacture. This company manufactures white flint glass wnre only, and, froin the excellence and cheapness of their wnres, bid fuir, in time, to drive ont all foreign competition. This is the second glass company established on the Pneific coast, the other being the Pacitie Glass Works’ Company, atthe Potrero, which confines its manufactures mostly to green ond black gluss ware, which it produces in large quantities. The San Francisco Glass Works have been in operntion only n short time, during which, however, they have manufactured a great Variety of white glass ware, of excellent quality —Awarded a silver medal, Ground and Cut Glass, by John Mallon & Co., San Francisco.

ON MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS. Committee: GEO. 8S. EVANS. J. K, KENDALL. JOHN L. CLARK. GEORGE KOPPITZ. J. W. J. PIERSON, The display of musical Instruments was a very fine one, that portion of Californin manufacture comparing favorably with the best imported. For anew country, scarcely fifteen yoars a State, the exbibition of her progress in the fine arts of civilization and population, as shown by this portion of the Fair, is worthy of great praise. This is more apparent when we consider the volatile character of her people, aud tbe high price of skilled labor necessary in the manufacture of musical instruments, nnd tbe competition natural with those manufactured and imported from the Eastern States and Europe. As a general rule, articles manufactured in California have to he of surpassing excellenee to compete successfully with imported articles, at a similnr price. The case of musical instruments is no exception to the genernl rule, Flutes, by George Pfaff, San Francisco, who exhibited a case containing n variety of flutes, of his own manufacture. These flutes were superiorin tone and workmanship to any exhibited before. In addition to the usual keys and openings in imported flutes, Mr, Pfaff has added several otbers, which improves them to a considerable extent, as they enable tbe player to execute with greater ease than heretofore, very difficult passages, keys, and shakes. Tbe instruments of Mr. Pfaff nre bored in a more perfect manner, which also improves the sound—Awarded a diploma. Pianos, by Jacob Zech, San Francisco. The pianos of Mr. Zech were, in tone, netion, and finish, considered sunerior to any exhibited before. These pianos, among other changes, have an improvement in the sounding-board, which ndds greatly to the sweetness and volume of tone. There being no competition of California niade pianos with those of Mr. Zech, the rules forbid nward of a premium, In view, however, of their excellence of tone and finish, as compared with tbo other Pianos exhibited, the committee award to Mr. Zech a gold medal. Square Pianos, of Wm. B. Beadbury’s make, New York, exhibited hy A. Kohler, agent, San Francisco, were the best imported pianos of their kind exbibited — Awarded a first premium. Grand Pianos, hy Badger & Lindenberger, San Francisco. Chickering, of Boston, exhibited a very fine piano of this variety, Mr. Chickering was the only exhibitor of grand pianos.—Awarded a diploma. Melodeons and Cabinet Organs, by Mason & Hamlin, exhibited by A, Kohler, agent.—Awarded a first premium. Accordeons, of Californin manufacture, exhibited by C. C. Keene, San Francisco. These instruments were mnoufactnred by himself, and were superior to the imported. Awarded a first premium. ON HAIR PREPARATIONS, DERTRIFICEH, ETC. Committee: DR. L. LANSZWEERT, ROYAL FISK. The great variety of the articles exhibited in this department of the Fnir renders it almost impossible for the Committee to report at length on the merits claimed for the different articles by tbcir exbibitors. They are, therefore, briefly mentioned, and those noticed heyond a simple enumeration in all cases have pcculiar merits which, in the opinion of the Committee, eutitle them to tbat distinction. Hair Rejuvenator——Samples exhibited hy A. Grimm.—Awarded a diploma. Perfumery—Sample exhihited by T. W. Van Zandt. Also, by J. F. Fugazi, wbo exbibited a very large and fine assortment of his own mnnufactnre. The cologne water, lait restorative, philocome, marrow pomade and hair dye were of most ex-. cellent quality, and, in tbe opinion of the Commitiee, equnl, if not superior, to imported articles. Analyses made by the Committee show the ingredients in the hair restorative to he of a harmless nature, while the testimoninls of respectable partis who have used the article, bear witness to its good effects Awarded a silver medal. Spring Flower Dentrifice—Samples exhibited by T. A. W. Lundborg. This urticle, on analysis hy the Committee, showed no injurious but many valuable ingredients for the purpose intended. Inthe opinion of the Committee, this preparation surpasses any known article of dentrifice in this mnrket, nnd tbey would recominend it accordingly A warded a silver medal. Cream of Tartar in Crystals—Samples exhibited by EB. Vache, Los Angeles. This article was of most excellent quality, hut the exhibitor would have promoted his interests by exhibiting samples prepared for family use, with a description of its manufacture aud cost, aud the practicability of competing with the imported article. As the consumption of this article is very large in this State, it is much to be regretted tbat information so important and iuteresting to the people was not furnished. Yeast Powders:—Samples of Curtis’ yenst powders exhibited by F. Williams. As this was the only sample of yeast powders on exhibition, the Committee were not able to test its merits hy comparison with otbers. Tho Committee, however, were of the opinion that the article exhibited would, on trial, staud well for preference Awarded n diploma. Preserved Milk—Samples exhibited by A. Besson. This article was, in the opinion of the Committee, superior to any imported, both for freshness and delicacy of flavor, the latter being very difficult to retain through the usual process of manafactire. Althougb the only article of its kiud on exhibition, the Committee would, in view of its excellence nnd purity (ns per analysis), recommend it for premium.—Avwarded a silver medal. Prepared Mustard—Samples of German and French mustard exhibited hy Zwick nnd Loeven. In the opiniou of the Committee, these samples of mustard— the “ Dusseldorfer ” and the “ Moutard de Bordeaux,” are well prepared, tbe latter, apparcutly, being somewhnt wenker than the imported article. Warren’s Lustrina, sample of this article exhibited by C. F. Boshen. This preparation, intended for cleaning and polishing cutlery, tin, Britnnnia ware, etc., was tested by the Committee, who found the article well adapted, as claimed, but, by a fincr pulverization of soine of the ingredients the quality would be improved. . .'[To be Contined.

A number of samples ef teeth, soldered upon a gold hase, were exhihited hy divers parties, some of them highly finished uud eredimblo specimens of the ort ; but those of merit the committee were satisfied were not wholly executed cither in the laboratory of the exhihitors, or under their immediate supervisinn, thus giving no personal evidence cither of professional skill or workmanship to the committee, who, therefore, do not feel justified.in deciding upon their merits. Ae Teeth without pain.—To Dr. Edwurd Belle, for an ingenious apparatus for the application of cold to the tecth and gums, during the process of extraction, benumbing the ucrves nnd periostium, so as to render the removul of teeth pninless. ‘The committeo have witnessed the prnetical application of this process, nnd helieve the mnchine an excellent one for the purpose designed, in all cases where it cnn be properly applied. They, tborefore, reeommend it as worthy of consideration.—A warded a diplomn. ON GLASS MANUFACTURES. White Flint Glass Ware, by the San Francisco Glass Works. One stand of fancy urticles, in glass, of Culiforuia manufacture. This company manufactures white flint glass wnre only, and, froin the excellence and cheapness of their wnres, bid fuir, in time, to drive ont all foreign competition. This is the second glass company established on the Pneific coast, the other being the Pacitie Glass Works’ Company, atthe Potrero, which confines its manufactures mostly to green ond black gluss ware, which it produces in large quantities. The San Francisco Glass Works have been in operntion only n short time, during which, however, they have manufactured a great Variety of white glass ware, of excellent quality —Awarded a silver medal, Ground and Cut Glass, by John Mallon & Co., San Francisco. Ono lot ground and cut glass. These specimens were of henutiful design nnd fing workmanship, and not to be excclled by anything of tbe kind ever imported.—Awarded a silver medal. ON MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS. Committee: GEO. 8S. EVANS. J. K, KENDALL. JOHN L. CLARK. GEORGE KOPPITZ. J. W. J. PIERSON, The display of musical Instruments was a very fine one, that portion of Californin manufacture comparing favorably with the best imported. For anew country, scarcely fifteen yoars a State, the exbibition of her progress in the fine arts of civilization and population, as shown by this portion of the Fair, is worthy of great praise. This is more apparent when we consider the volatile character of her people, aud tbe high price of skilled labor necessary in the manufacture of musical instruments, nnd tbe competition natural with those manufactured and imported from the Eastern States and Europe. As a general rule, articles manufactured in California have to he of surpassing excellenee to compete successfully with imported articles, at a similnr price. The case of musical instruments is no exception to the genernl rule, Flutes, by George Pfaff, San Francisco, who exhibited a case containing n variety of flutes, of his own manufacture. These flutes were superiorin tone and workmanship to any exhibited before. In addition to the usual keys and openings in imported flutes, Mr, Pfaff has added several otbers, which improves them to a considerable extent, as they enable tbe player to execute with greater ease than heretofore, very difficult passages, keys, and shakes. Tbe instruments of Mr. Pfaff nre bored in a more perfect manner, which also improves the sound—Awarded a diploma. Pianos, by Jacob Zech, San Francisco. The pianos of Mr. Zech were, in tone, netion, and finish, considered sunerior to any exhibited before. These pianos, among other changes, have an improvement in the sounding-board, which ndds greatly to the sweetness and volume of tone. There being no competition of California niade pianos with those of Mr. Zech, the rules forbid nward of a premium, In view, however, of their excellence of tone and finish, as compared with tbo other Pianos exhibited, the committee award to Mr. Zech a gold medal. Square Pianos, of Wm. B. Beadbury’s make, New York, exhibited hy A. Kohler, agent, San Francisco, were the best imported pianos of their kind exbibited — Awarded a first premium. Grand Pianos, hy Badger & Lindenberger, San Francisco. Chickering, of Boston, exhibited a very fine piano of this variety, Mr. Chickering was the only exhibitor of grand pianos.—Awarded a diploma. Melodeons and Cabinet Organs, by Mason & Hamlin, exhibited by A, Kohler, agent.—Awarded a first premium. Accordeons, of Californin manufacture, exhibited by C. C. Keene, San Francisco. These instruments were mnoufactnred by himself, and were superior to the imported. Awarded a first premium. ON HAIR PREPARATIONS, DERTRIFICEH, ETC. Committee: DR. L. LANSZWEERT, ROYAL FISK. The great variety of the articles exhibited in this department of the Fnir renders it almost impossible for the Committee to report at length on the merits claimed for the different articles by tbcir exbibitors. They are, therefore, briefly mentioned, and those noticed heyond a simple enumeration in all cases have pcculiar merits which, in the opinion of the Committee, eutitle them to tbat distinction. Hair Rejuvenator——Samples exhibited hy A. Grimm.—Awarded a diploma. Perfumery—Sample exhihited by T. W. Van Zandt. Also, by J. F. Fugazi, wbo exbibited a very large and fine assortment of his own mnnufactnre. The cologne water, lait restorative, philocome, marrow pomade and hair dye were of most ex-. cellent quality, and, in tbe opinion of the Commitiee, equnl, if not superior, to imported articles. Analyses made by the Committee show the ingredients in the hair restorative to he of a harmless nature, while the testimoninls of respectable partis who have used the article, bear witness to its good effects Awarded a silver medal. Spring Flower Dentrifice—Samples exhibited by T. A. W. Lundborg. This

urticle, on analysis hy the Committee, showed no injurious but many valuable ingredients for the purpose intended. Inthe opinion of the Committee, this preparation surpasses any known article of dentrifice in this mnrket, nnd tbey would recominend it accordingly A warded a silver medal. Cream of Tartar in Crystals—Samples exhibited by EB. Vache, Los Angeles. This article was of most excellent quality, hut the exhibitor would have promoted his interests by exhibiting samples prepared for family use, with a description of its manufacture aud cost, aud the practicability of competing with the imported article. As the consumption of this article is very large in this State, it is much to be regretted tbat information so important and iuteresting to the people was not furnished. Yeast Powders:—Samples of Curtis’ yenst powders exhibited by F. Williams. As this was the only sample of yeast powders on exhibition, the Committee were not able to test its merits hy comparison with otbers. Tho Committee, however, were of the opinion that the article exhibited would, on trial, staud well for preference Awarded n diploma. Preserved Milk—Samples exhibited by A. Besson. This article was, in the opinion of the Committee, superior to any imported, both for freshness and delicacy of flavor, the latter being very difficult to retain through the usual process of manafactire. Althougb the only article of its kiud on exhibition, the Committee would, in view of its excellence nnd purity (ns per analysis), recommend it for premium.—Avwarded a silver medal. Prepared Mustard—Samples of German and French mustard exhibited hy Zwick nnd Loeven. In the opiniou of the Committee, these samples of mustard— the “ Dusseldorfer ” and the “ Moutard de Bordeaux,” are well prepared, tbe latter, apparcutly, being somewhnt wenker than the imported article. Warren’s Lustrina, sample of this article exhibited by C. F. Boshen. This preparation, intended for cleaning and polishing cutlery, tin, Britnnnia ware, etc., was tested by the Committee, who found the article well adapted, as claimed, but, by a fincr pulverization of soine of the ingredients the quality would be improved. . .'[To be Contined.
