Many hay» remarked that there is nothing jew under the sun, but the extraordinary yield from the Caledonian mine is something that was never yet known of, and even that is nothing when compared to the handsome Jewellery now beiDg made daily by F. H. lewisson, Jeweller, Queen-street, from the quartz-stone from that mine. There are ear rings, brooches, pins, studs, solitaires, sleeve links, &c, &0., &c. Many may think it impossible for them to be finished in Auck land, the articles being turned out in such first-class style, but having visited the green stone lapidary, as also the workshop where the gold work is done (where anyone can see for themselves, should they feel so inclined), we can assure the public that the goods turned out by F. H. Lewisson (opposite the Union Bank) are purely Colonial, and would not disgrace.any first-class house in London. A look in the window will well repay anyone, as there is always something new to b» seen and admired, and never the same goods two dajs together. Advance New Zealand!— New 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; a}so, a black stone found in Mari's Islandj which, when cut and polished, surpasses the English jot. .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 ing is finished, will be worthy inspection, and we should advise anyone desirous of sending home elegant presents to pay a visit to 3T. H. Lewisson's establishment, opposite the Union Bank, Queen-street.— Daily Southern Cross. — [Advt.] An inspection of Mr. F. H. Lewisson's shop, nearly opposite the Union Bank, 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 their very excel lent workmanship. We cannot undertake to describe here the various buds, leaves, plants, flowers, and other things, formed out of gold, silver, quartz, greenstone, cornelian, kauri gum, and other materials selected for the 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 the Continent of Europe, but from this it has nothing to fear. Its superior (,'uality 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. Lewiaeon's investment of capital, spirit of enterprise, and artistic skill deserve all the countenance and support that can be accorded to him.— Evening News. —[Advt.] The scrip market has had a downward ten dency the last few days. Although G-olden 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 301. for one of his patent portable smoke conßuming ovens, can at the end of each mo|*yh give to all his patrons shent per shent.
