Tho display is crcditnblo nllko to the artistic ability of tho firm, as for tho taste and refinement which it intimates as being possessed by their patrons. In tho rooms adjoining tho sales room are to bo seen six skilled mechanics, handling tho precious metals and forming them'into beautiful shapes ; and just hero wo note a particular featuro of this firm. they manufacture jewelry from tho bullion, twenty dollar gold pieces being used for that purpose. Al though tho Messrs.

Wo recommend our citizens to pay a visit to the work rooms and see tho process of construction of solid gold goods, from 14 to 18 carats fine. It is not generally known that such n manufactory exists in our midst, and will well repay examination, under the polite guidance of the affable head of tho firm. Mr. T. deserves great credit for his perseverance and energy. There Is no other like it, we believe, short of St. Louis or Chicago. There is ono branch of the business which he attends to exclusively himself, namely: DIE SINKING, a very Important and delicate brunch, few are capable of performing. Wo were shown a largo number of steel dies, cost ing in New York city ten dollars each, for slumping in various designs the goods when finished. Wo wero also shown the melting furnace, tho sand cruel blcs for holding the melted gold, only being used two or three times, and a number of delicate machines used in tho construction of tho numerous articles ho manufactures.
