THE EVENING STAR.



Many have remarked that there is nothing c -(V under the-sun, but tho extraordinary B, eld from the Caledonian mine is something that wfl9 nevel* yet knoT«'n of > and oven that is Ljtliing compared to tho handsome Jewellery now being made daily by F. H. lewisson, Jeweller, Queen-street, from the uar tz-stone from that mine. There are ear nings, brooches, pins, studs, solitaires, sleeve links, &c., &c, &c. Many may think it jmpossiUe for them to bo finished in Auck land, the articles teing turned out in such first-class style, but having visited the green- I stone lapidary, as also the workshop where I the gold work is done (where anyone can see I for themselves, should they feel so inclined), I ffe can assure the public that the goods turned J out by F. H. Lewisson (opposite the "Union _tnV) are purely Colonial, and would not disgrace any first-class house in London. A look in the window will well repay anyone, fl s there is always something new to be seen and admired, and never the same goods two inxs together. Advance New Zealand! — flew Zealand Herald. —[Advt.] By the invitation of F. H. Lewisson we paid a visit to his factory to inspect some articles now being finished. We were well repaid for our trouble, and had no idea of the perfection he has obtained in the working of auriferous quartz and greenstone into jewellery; also, a black stone found in Hari's Island, which, when cut and polished, I surpasses the English jet. It may be as well to mention a few articles now being finished, under order for the outgoing mail, viz., a pair of black earrings and brooch ; a mosaic brooch made of light and dark gold-bearing quartz and greenstone, in the shape of a star —a beautiful specimen of colonial workmanship ; a mosaic quartz and greenstone cross ; an an chor made of quartz and greenstone, for a gentleman's pin ; a set of studs, sleeve-links, and collar-buttons to match ; quartz horseshoe in the centre of a piece of greenstone; and several masonic emblems, composed of quartz and greenstone. These, when the gold mount- I ing is finished, will be worthy inspection, and we should advise anyone desirous of sending home elegant presents to pay a visit to F. H. Lewisson's establishment, opposite tho Union Bank, Queen-street. — Daily Southern Cross. — [Advt.]



An inspection of Mr. F. H. Lewisson's shop, nearly opposite the Union Bunk, Lower Queen street, will show what can be done in the manufacture of jewellery in Auckland. There rings, lockets, brooches, earrings, and other forms of jewellery, manufactured in Mr. Lewisson's shop in Albert-street, are spread out in tempting profusion, and are no - less remarkable for their variety and originality, than for their tastefulness, and thei» very excel lent workmanship. We cannot undertake to describe here the various buds, leaves, plants, flowers, and other thing 3, formed out of gold, silver, quartz, greenstone, cornelian, kauri gum, and other materials selected for tho purpose. They must be inspected, in order to their being appreciated, and this they will be largely by the favourers of colonial industries. Mr. Lewisson's jewellery has, of course, to compete with the cheaply worked productions of Great Britain and tho Continent of Europe, but from this it has nothing to fear. Its superior quality and greater durability will not only tend to its being largely worn here, but to its being extensively exported. Those desiring to send presents home will find all they could wish in Mr. Lewisson's shop to select from. Many of the articles for inspection and sale are as unique as they are beautiful. Mr. Lewisson's investment of capital, spirit of enterprise, and artistic skill deserve all the countenance and support that can be accorded toJiim. — Evening News. —[Advt.] The scrip market has had a downward ten dency the last few days. Although Golden Crown at £10, and Alburnia at £15, may take, speculators should hesitate before they make an investment. The only safe and cer tain dividend to be obtained is at H. H. Smith's, High-street, who, for the small outlay of 30s. for one of his patent portable smoke consuming oven 3, can at the end of each month give to all his patrons shent per shent. Business hours from 8 a.m. till 5 p.m. Coun try settlers should not neglect this Oppor unity.—[Adyt.]
