Mitchell, Vance & Co., of New York. The array of light, graceful forms for pendants and side-lights, the handsome clusters and the superb centre-pieces of elaborate design, all in crystal, thus displayed, made the exhibit of this firm one of the most interesting and attractive features of that portion of the building. Ot course, owine to the regulations eovernine the Exhibition, it was not allowable to introduce gas into the tubes, which lighted, would have shown the effect most advantageously ...; but there were certain periods during the day when the sun-light, shining in through the upper transoms of the building, fell upon these objects and was reflected from the angles of the crystal in a shower of prismatic colors. Under these circumstances some idea could be obtained of the beauty of the designs when answering the purposes for which they are intended. The use of crystal for decorative purposes in connection with artificial light was a most happy inspiration and cannot be too highly recommended.
