 OF THE 
 
 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE YORKSHIRE FINE 
 ART AND INDUSTRIAL EXHIBITION. 
 
 Presented to the General Committee, April Kith, 1837 . 
 
 In laying before you a final report of our labours, it ap- 
 pears expedient to retrace the ground covered by former 
 reports, in order that the rise, progress, and results of the 
 Exhibition may be presented in a connected form. 
 
 The success of several exhibitions which had been held 
 in the provinces, more especially the one at Wakefield, 
 induced in the minds of some of our citizens the belief that 
 if an effort were made in York, and anything like a united 
 action could be obtained, there were many points in its 
 geographical position, its historical associations, and the 
 general tastes and habits of its citizens that would make it 
 admirably adapted for the successful holding of a Fine Art 
 and Industrial Exhibition. 
 
 Impressed with this idea, a circular was issued inviting a 
 few gentlemen to meet at the York School of Art and con- 
 sider the matter. At this meeting about twenty persons 
 were present, and the feeling in favour of the project was so 
 strong that a provisional committee was formed to bring the 
 subject before the citizens. This was first done on November 
 14th, 1865, at a meeting convened by circular, held in the 
 
#72 
 
 8 
 
 Council-chamber of the Guildhall, the Lord Mayor presiding. 
 The company assembled on this occasion was eminently re- 
 presentative in its character, and the project was fully en- 
 tered into and discussed in all its bearings, the result being 
 that it was resolved to request the Lord Mayor to convene a 
 public meeting of the citizens “to consider and determine 
 whether an Exhibition of Art and Industry shall be held in 
 this city during the course of next year.” This meeting was 
 held in the Guildhall on November 22nd, and it was resolved 
 to carry out the project, provided that two conditions, which 
 were deemed essential to the success of the scheme, could be 
 satisfactorily met. The first of these was the obtaining of 
 subscriptions to an adequate guarantee fund, and the second 
 the securing the cordial co-operation of the directors of the 
 North-Eastern Railway Company ; for it was felt that unless 
 the latter could be obtained it was useless to attempt to hold 
 such an Exhibition, as the local population would be quite 
 inadequate to support it. The citizens present formed them- 
 selves into a committee, and a deputation was appointed to 
 wait on the directors, who expressed themselves desirous of 
 rendering all the assistance that lay in their power towards 
 the furtherance of the undertaking — an offer of assistance 
 which we are happy to say was most fully carried into effect 
 by the various officers of the company. It was considered 
 that a guarantee fund of i?3,000 would be sufficient to meet 
 the requirements of the case, but in the course of a very 
 short time a sum of upwards of L‘6,000 was subscribed by 
 388 persons, all but three being citizens. 
 
 The successful completion of the prescribed conditionsbeing 
 reported at a second meeting of the General Committee, it 
 was resolved to proceed with the undertaking, and we (the 
 Executive Committee) were appointed to carry out the 
 details of the Exhibition, the only point reserved by the 
 General Committee being the disjDOsal of the surplus, which 
 at that time was considered by many as very hypothetical. 
 
At this point in the progress of the affair we applied to his 
 Grace the Archbishop of York to allow his name to be placed 
 at the head of our list of patrons, a request he most kindly 
 complied with. Applications to noblemen and gentlemen to 
 act as patrons were confined to the peerage and baronetage 
 of the county, and to the representatives of the various divi- 
 sions and boroughs, and the success that attended our appli- 
 cations will be seen by inspecting the list of names that 
 headed and gave weight to our prospectus. 
 
 One of the first questions that presented itself for our 
 serious consideration was where the Exhibition should be 
 situated. The advantages and disadvantages of various sites 
 were anxiously examined and discussed, and very consider- 
 able difference of opinion prevailed among us and in the city 
 as to the best position. The question lay chiefly between 
 St. George’s Field and the Asylum Field, though strenuous 
 efforts were made to obtain for the general purposes of the 
 city the plot of ground known as Bearpark’s Garden, adjoining 
 to the Wilberforce School for the Blind. Ultimately it was 
 decided that, if it could be obtained, the Asylum Field was 
 preferable, and we think that the result proved that this was 
 a wise decision. A satisfactory arrangement was made with 
 the Committee of the Asylum, and the plans for the building, 
 which had been prepared by Messrs. J. B. and W. Atkinson, 
 and Mr. Edward Taylor, having been approved, advertise- 
 ments for tenders were inserted in the various newspapers. 
 The state of both the labour and money market was such at 
 this juncture that considerable difficulty was experienced in 
 obtaining tenders. Ultimately arrangements were made 
 and the building actually commenced on March the 15th, 
 1866 . 
 
 But before this could be done it was needful to call the 
 General Committee together ; it was one of the conditions of 
 the subscription to the guarantee fund that no call should be 
 made on any subscriber except in case of actual loss ; but 
 
873 
 
 10 
 
 the difficulty of obtaining tenders induced us to recommend 
 that a call of two-fifths of the sum subscribed should be made 
 on each guarantor ; this recommendation was accompanied 
 by a report that explained the reasons for such a course, 
 and the General Committee, by an almost unanimous vote, 
 adopted the recommendation. This ready concurrence with 
 our views, at a time when the carrying out of the scheme 
 appeared to hold out no prospect but of considerable pecu- 
 niary loss to those concerned in it, was greatly encouraging 
 and tended much to strengthen the interest of all, and was 
 highly creditable to the spirit and energy of the citizens. 
 
 The call was promptly paid up, producing upwards of 
 £2,000. Thus provided with the means, the work was 
 pushed rapidly forward, and was ready, according to agree- 
 ment, for the holding of the Gala Flower Show on the 13th 
 and 14th of June, and by great exertion on the part of all 
 concerned in the work, the contents of the Exhibition were 
 so far arranged as to admit of its being opened on the day 
 which had been fixed, namely, Tuesday, the 24th of July. 
 
 The day was observed as a general holiday in the city, the 
 greatest interest being manifested by all parties in the success 
 of the undertaking. At the time appointed, His Grace the 
 Archbishop, accompanied by the Lord Mayor and Corpora- 
 tion, together with a goodly array of the patrons and their 
 families, took their places on the dais, and His Grace opened 
 the proceedings by imploring a blessing on the work — this 
 was followed by an address that will be long remembered by 
 those who were privileged to listen to it ; addresses were also 
 delivered by the late Lord Feversham, Lord Herries, Lord 
 Houghton, &c., and the whole passed off to the entire satis- 
 faction of all concerned. 
 
 The only parties admitted to the opening ceremony were 
 the holders of first-class season tickets, and of special tickets 
 which were issued at 10s. each. The rates of admission for 
 the first month were fixed at first-class season tickets, £1. Is. ; 
 
875 
 
 11 
 
 second class, 10s. 6d., (a deduction from these charges being 
 made to exhibitors, guarantors, and families taking more 
 than one ticket) ; single admission, Is., with one day in the 
 week at 2s. 6d. This plan was continued till the end of 
 August, when the charge for single admissions was reduced 
 to 6d. each on three days of the week, the other three days 
 being retained at 1 s. ; but parties coming by excursion trains 
 were always admitted at 6d. each. 
 
 In obtaining and arranging the various objects of the 
 Exhibition, we were zealously assisted by a large number 
 of gentlemen, who formed a series of sub-committees, and 
 who were selected as having special knowledge on the various 
 subjects committed to them ; these sub-committees worked 
 in great harmony, and their labours were invaluable. How 
 many times these committees met would be difficult to ascer- 
 tain, but in order to give some idea of the amount of labour 
 bestowed, we may mention that we have met seventy times, 
 and, allowing on an average two hours for each sitting, this 
 gives an equivalent to fourteen days of ten hours each de- 
 voted by the Executive Committee as a whole to the service 
 of the Exhibition. 
 
 Prior to receiving any articles for exhibition, the question 
 of the safe custody of the goods about to be committed to us, 
 engaged our careful consideration ; and we resolved that at 
 least one of our body should remain in charge each night in 
 addition to the police force and our own paid watchmen ; in 
 this service all from our president to our youngest member 
 united, and we were joined in it by the members of the sub- 
 committees- — the regular night-watch after the opening of the 
 Exhibition, consisting of one member of the executive, one 
 sub-committee man, four police-officers, and two night- 
 watchmen. We believe that this personal care of the valua- 
 ble articles committed to our trust was appreciated by the 
 exhibitors. The total value of the articles exhibited could 
 not be less than T250.Q00, but as many of them were unique, 
 
876 
 
 12 
 
 it was impossible to put a market value on them. We 
 effected insurances against fire on the building and its con- 
 tents for such sums as we considered sufficient, and happily 
 were not obliged to call on any of the offices to make good 
 any loss. 
 
 The visit of their Royal Highnesses the Prince and 
 Princess of Wales on the 10th of August was the brightest 
 da} 7 of our season ; we had looked forward to it with con- 
 siderable anxiety, but the result was eminently satisfactory. 
 We prepared an address to our Royal visitors which was 
 presented by our president, and graciously replied to by the 
 Prince — afterwards they and their suite were conducted 
 through the building, and expressed themselves much pleased 
 with it and its contents. (The address, with his Royal 
 Highness’s reply will be found in the appendix.) During 
 the session of the Church Congress arrangements were made 
 for its members to hold a conversazione in the building, and 
 on this occasion all the resources of the Exhibition were 
 placed at the disposal of the company, which numbered 
 upwards of 1,700. On another evening the annual meeting 
 of the York School of Art, presided over by Mr. Beresford 
 Hope, M.P., was held in the Great Hall, free admission 
 being given to the subscribers. It afforded us great pleasure 
 thus, in some measure, to acknowledge the services that in the 
 early days of the project, the Committee of the School of Art 
 rendered to the undertaking. The day which followed the 
 visit of their Royal Highnesses was the first in which we had 
 any heavy press of visitors ; the review of the northern 
 volunteers attracted immense numbers of persons to our city, 
 and before the time fixed for the commencement of the 
 review, and after its close, our hall and galleries were 
 crowded with spectators. Our receipts touched their highest 
 point on that day being =£487. 13s. lOd. 
 
 The total receipts of the Exhibition amounted to .£13,950 
 6s. lid., and was made up of a great variety of items in 
 
377 
 
 13 
 
 addition to that of admission, some of these require especial 
 notice. In order to obtaii# a Jacquard ribbon loom for 
 Exhibition we arranged with Mr. Stevens, of Coventry, to 
 take a certain amount of his goods and dispose of them to 
 the visitors, he undertaking to prepare two ribbons with 
 special designs ; the demand for these goods was so great 
 that we disposed of upwards of .£900 worth. Another item 
 of receipt was the Fairy or Chromatic Fountain ; this was 
 exhibited in a room separate from the main Hall, and a 
 charge of 2d. was made for admission. It was visited by 
 upwards of 66,000 persons who paid for admission, besides 
 the holders of season tickets who were admitted free. The 
 fountain was supplemented on alternate evenings by the 
 display of a large series of photographic views, exhibited by 
 means of the oxy-liydrogen light ; the popularity of these 
 displays appeared to increase by repetition, and the receipts 
 for the last four days greatly exceeded any four consecutive 
 days during the ten weeks that the fountain and views were 
 exhibited. The total sum received from this source amounted 
 to about £‘556. The care of walking sticks and umbrellas 
 also proved a source of income, upwards of 90,000 having 
 been deposited at a charge of §d. each. The sale of cata- 
 logues also greatly exceeded our expectation. We guaranteed 
 to our advertisers a. circulation of 10,000, but the first 
 edition of 10,000 was followed by a second of 10,000, and by 
 a third and fourth of 4,000 each, and of these not one 
 remains on hand. 
 
 The daily number of admissions of course varied very 
 greatly, from 875 on the day succeeding the opening to 
 12,703 on the closing day ; the total number including the 
 soiree on the 2nd of November being 380,935, giving a daily 
 average for the 87 days that the Exhibition was open of 
 4,374 visitors. The staff of officers and attendants employed 
 in the care and management of the building, &c., and 
 directly engaged and paid by the committee consisted of 34 
 
378 
 
 14 
 
 persons ; a large number of the trade exhibitors had also 
 attendants of their own, whose*business was confined to the 
 care of their own goods ; but in addition there was always 
 present some member of the committee to whom any question 
 that might arise could be referred. The attendants and 
 waiters in the refreshment departments were employed and 
 paid by the lessees, and the committee had nothing to do 
 with their appointment or management. It is worthy of 
 remark that the season proved a very wet one, which doubt- 
 less greatly detracted from the number of our visitors ; while 
 it greatly increased the labour and care of those employed 
 by the committee. 
 
 Appended to this report will be found a plan of the 
 building, and we would state our opinion that it was admir- 
 ably adapted to the purpose for which it was designed 
 and applied. 
 
 The Exhibition naturally resolved itself into two great 
 divisions : the artistic and the mercantile. Some of the 
 more important features of each appear to call for notice in 
 this final report. 
 
 For the reception of statuary and pictures two spacious 
 galleries were provided, each 60 feet long by 30 feet wide ; 
 each of these opening into pavilions 40 feet square, giving an 
 area of 6,800 square feet, and providing nearly 8,000 feet of 
 wall available for hanging pictures. With such an extent of 
 space some misgivings were at first entertained as to the 
 possibility of obtaining the requisite number of pictures, but 
 such misgivings were quickly dissipated, and subsequently 
 a large number had to be declined. For this result we 
 were principally indebted to the noblemen and gentlemen of 
 Yorkshire, and we desire to express our deep sense of 
 obligation to them for the uniform courtesy with which we 
 were met, and the generous manner in which large and 
 valuable collections of pictures were thrown open to us and 
 placed at our disposal. If, in a few instances, our ap- 
 
plications were unsuccessful the denial was accompanied by 
 some valid reason which we felt bound to respect, such for 
 instance as injury having been sustained in some previous 
 Exhibition. Although the great mass of pictures were con- 
 tributed from private galleries, yet the modern artists were 
 not altogether unrepresented. The uncertainty that at first 
 existed in the minds of the public before the project was 
 fair ly launched, had the effect of driving many important 
 works into the London and Provincial Exhibitions which 
 would otherwise have found their way to York ; but notwith- 
 standing the small number of pictures for sale £640 was 
 realized, adding to the surplus of the Exhibition the sum of 
 £37. 10s. fid. for commission charged thereon. In addition 
 to this several of the exhibiting artists received commissions 
 to paint pictures amounting to a considerable sum, which we 
 cannot but consider as a satisfactory feature, and one illus- 
 trating the beneficial effects arising from local Exhibitions. 
 
 ( The ancient school contained pictures by Rembrandt, Guido,

 In the aggregate the galleries contained 900 pictures, 
 received from between two and three hundred contributors, 
 and taking into consideration the great variety of interests 
 that had to be considered and respected, we have every 
 reason to believe that in point of attractiveness and excellence 
 they ranked far above the average.

 With so large and costl} 7 a collection of pictures and statuary 
 no ordinary risks were run, no ordinary responsibility was 
 incurred, and an amount of personal care and attention was 
 required which it would be difficult to estimate. That care 
 and attention, however, was not wanting ; and we have the 
 gratifying announcement to make that not a fraction of 
 compensation for damage has had to be paid in this depart- 
 ment ; a result we believe unprecedented in the annals of all 
 previous Exhibitions. 
 
 The great hall, which had a length of 195 feet, and a 
 breadth of 80 feet, and which was surrounded by a gallery 
 18 feet wide, was, as a whole, occupied with the mercantile 
 department of the Exhibition, though this was relieved by 
 fine selections of statuary and casts from Lord Londesborough’s 
 collection and the York School of Art. The fine organ built 
 and exhibited by Messrs. Conacher of Huddersfield, was 
 greatly admired, and was a source of great gratification and 
 enjoyment during the whole time the Exhibition was open ; 
 the grand pianos of Waddington, Hopkinson, and Brinsmead 
 were also freely placed at the disposal of the Musical 
 Committee : in passing, it is only just to say how greatly the 
 Exhibition was indebted for its success and its unflagging inter- 
 est to the varied entertainments that were provided for the 
 evening visitors. The Exhibition promenade concerts will long 
 be remembered by the Y ork public as one of the most enj oy- 
 able series of re-unions that has ever occurred in the city. 
 Art manufactures were well represented by specimens of 
 stained glass, (all the windows of the great hall being filled 
 with it,) carvings in wood and stone, elaborate ceilings in 
 plaster, ornamental iron work, and a very choice selection of 
 specimens from the South Kensington Museum ; nor 
 must we omit to mention the unrivalled collection of china, 
 ancient and modern, derived from various sources, and 
 the invaluable collection of ancient armour contributed by 
 Lord Londesborough. The local manufactures of the city, — : 
 
 B

 linens, confectionery, saddlery, combs, cocoa, leather, carriages, 
 planes, &c., were well represented ; while Messrs. Cooke and 
 Sons contributed the fine clock that regulated our move- 
 ments, a collection of meteorological and astronomical instru- 
 ments, wheel cutting engines, &c. The machinery and 
 carriages were in an annex, having about 6,000 square feet 
 of area. The carriages formed a prominent feature of the 
 Exhibition, and comprised specimens of work from York, 
 Newcastle-on-Tyne, Harrogate, Scarborough, Beverley, and 
 Driffield. Steven’s Jacquard ribbon loom, in which a ribbon 
 with a portrait of the Archbishop and views of the Minster 
 and St. Mary’s Abbey was being woven, (a similar ribbon 
 with a portrait of the Lord Mayor being woven at Coventry), 
 was an object of great attraction. Near it were looms in 
 which lace and linens were in course of manufacture ; 
 machines for drilling and planing iron and brass ; mortis- 
 ing machine ; the gas engine of Lenoir ; a sewing machine 
 by Wheeler and Wilson, driven by steam power ; pumping 
 engine by Routledge and Ommanney of Manchester, and a 
 great variety of working models, forming a very attractive 
 feature of our Exhibition. The whole of the machinery was 
 driven by a fine engine (Allan engine) contributed by Messrs 
 Ormerod and Grierson, of Manchester, the steam for which 
 was generated in a boiler kindly supplied by the directors of 
 the North Eastern Railway Co., and which was placed out- 
 side the building, and entirely separated from it, the steam 
 being conducted by pipes laid below the level of the ground. 
 The performance of this engine elicited hearty commendation 
 from all competent to form an opinion on the subject. We 
 must not omit to mention the display of that machine which 
 is making such a revolution in the labours of a large part of 
 our countrywomen ; no less than nine manufacturers of 
 sewing machines were represented in our Exhibition, and 
 many of them carried on a very flourishing business, evidently 
 shewing that the opportunity of seeing these machines at 
 
383 
 
 19 
 
 work, and of comparing their various advantages was ap- 
 preciated by those specially interested in the subject. 
 
 The natural history department of the Exhibition was not 
 extensive ; it was felt that with the magnificent collections of 
 the Yorkshire Philosophical Society close at hand it was not 
 expedient to give prominence to this department, yet enough 
 was obtained to show what misrht have been done had it 
 been deemed desirable. One or two very interesting collec- 
 tions of preserved birds, &c., were contributed by York 
 citizens, and two fresh water aquariums with good collections 
 of fishes were objects of great interest to the visitors. In 
 various parts of the building, glass toy making, fret cutting, 
 basket making, glass engraving, needle making, &c., were 
 going on, and were always surrounded by interested groups 
 of spectators. 
 
 In looking back on the results of our Exhibition, and in 
 endeavouring to draw from it some lesson for the future, we 
 think that we can discern that its success was to a great 
 extent attributable to the wide area that it embraced. There 
 was in it something that appealed to all, whatever might be 
 their tastes and inclinations. The man of cultivated taste 
 found there what pleased and gratified him, and the less re- 
 fined found that which, if it did not call into exercise the 
 same faculties, gratified him by appealing to others. To 
 make an Exhibition thoroughly successful, we think it ought 
 to comprise that which shall attract all. that every visitor, 
 whether peer or peasant shall find in it something that he 
 Can understand and appreciate. There should be enough of 
 display to attract the unthinking, and enough of solid matter 
 for the thought and study of those who look below the sur- 
 face. It should minister to every taste and gratification that 
 is not opposed to the dictates of religion and morality — and 
 such we believe was the character of our Exhibition of 1866. 
 
 Prior to the close of the Exhibition, several gentlemen 
 eminent in their various callings, were reqested to act as 
 
884 
 
 20 
 
 judges, and in accordance with their recommendations we 
 have issued J 1 8 medals and 147 certificates of merit. The 
 design for the medal is the production of Mr John Bell, of 
 York, and it has been executed by Mr. Thomas Ottley, of 
 Birmingham. The design for the certificate of merit was 
 furnished by Mr. Camidge, and engraved by Mr. William 
 Chapman, both of York. The medal is accompanied by a 
 certificate, the design for which was furnished by Mr. T. J. 
 Worthington. These medals and certificates are now in our 
 possession, and in the course of a very few days will be dis- 
 tributed to those to whom they have been awarded. 
 
 The Exhibition was dosed to the public on the 31st of 
 October, having been open fourteen weeks and two days. 
 No formality marked the closing evening, but a short time 
 before the last piece of music was performed a few gentlemen 
 of the committee, &c., appeared in the orchestra to give to 
 those assembled the results of the last day’s attendance, and 
 amidst the enthusiastic cheers of the company, proposed the 
 following sentiment as the most appropriate to the close of 
 the Exhibition : — “ Peace and prosperity to this our ancient 
 and dearly loved city. May she ever be found ready to take 
 her place among the foremost in the onward movements of 
 the times.” On the evening of Friday, November 2nd, we 
 again opened our doors to season ticket holders, exhibitors, 
 and guarantors, and a very enjoyable soiree took place. 
 On this occasion a meeting was held under the presidency of 
 the Lord Mayor, at which we presented a list of the awards 
 made by the judges, and a report of the general progress of 
 the undertaking, and subseqently, resolutions expressive of 
 our obligations to those who had so kindly assisted us, were 
 proposed and cordially agreed to. The number present on 
 this occasion was 2,710. We ought to mention that whilst 
 the right of entree was restricted to season ticket holders, 
 exhibitors, and guarantors, we made provision for the admis- 
 sion of the friends of these parties, by allowing them to pur- 
 
685 
 
 21 
 
 chase tickets at 2s. (id. each. Upwards of £49 was received 
 for these tickets. On Monday, the 4th of November, we 
 began the work of returning the various articles to their 
 owners, this was continued till November the 22nd, when a 
 sale of the various fittings, &c., belonging to the committee 
 took place, and the building was handed over to the con- 
 tractors. The whole was taken down and removed within 
 the time which had been arranged with the Asylum Com- 
 mittee, and the ground has since been levelled and restored 
 as far as practicable to its original condition. It is a matter 
 of congratulation that no accident involving the loss of life or 
 limb occurred during the progress of the erection or removal 
 of the building. 
 
 As regards the financial results of the Exhibition we refer 
 to the treasurer’s account, from which it will be seen that, 
 after all expenses have been met, there remains a balance of 
 upwards of £2,200. As soon as we received information that 
 the bulk of the valuable articles committed to our care had 
 reached their owners in safety, arrangements were made to 
 repay to the guarantors the several sums they had advanced, 
 and it was only reasonable that these loans should be repaid 
 with interest. With the exception of a few sums that have 
 not yet been called for, the various loans have been repaid, 
 with five per cent, added. 
 
 Before proceeding to any consideration of the best means 
 of utilizing the surplus, we call the attention of the General 
 Committee to the fact that this surplus has been obtained by 
 the untiring exertions of gentlemen who have given to the 
 affairs of the Exhibition much time, thought, and labour. 
 Where all have worked so well, it may seem invidious to 
 have made a selection, but we were of opinion that the ser- 
 vices of the honorary secretaries and the lion, secretary of the 
 Fine Art department had been of so eminent a character and 
 had contributed so largely to the success of the undertaking, 
 whether we regarded it from a financial or social point of 
 
view, that we voted certain sums as testimonials to them, but 
 a feeling of delicacy on the part of these gentlemen prevents 
 them accepting of these testimonials without your concur- 
 rence being first asked and obtained. 
 
 Should your judgment coincide with ours, on the subject 
 just mentioned, there would remain a surplus of about 
 i 1,900, and the disposal of this has been an object of anxious 
 thought to us, and we are of opinion that it will be best em- 
 ployed in the providing of some permanent building devoted 
 to the encouragement of art and industry. The securing of 
 an eligible site and building for the exhibition of paintings, 
 &c., would be an appropriate use of the money, and if in- 
 sufficient for the purpose might be supplemented by sub- 
 scriptions or the creation of shares bearing a limited rate of 
 interest. We believe that the possession of a building of 
 this description and a frequently-recurring Exhibition of 
 Works of Art and Industry would be a great boon, and tend 
 to give permanence to that impulse which the late Exhibi- 
 tion certainly has given to the trade and prospects of the 
 city.

 COPY OF THE ADDRESS. 
 
 To their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess 
 of Wales. 
 
 May it please your Royal Highnesses, — We, the Executive 
 Committee of the Yorkshire Fine Art and Industrial Ex- 
 hibition, beg leave to approach your Royal Highnesses with 
 the expression of our warm affection and respect, and our 
 loyal devotion to the Queen and Her Royal House. We 
 feel deeply the kindness and condescension that has prompted 
 you to favor us with a visit, and thank you for the honor you 
 have thereby conferred on us. 
 
 The history of undertakings like ours is so intimately 
 connected with the memory of Him, who not being born 
 among us or trained in the habits of thought and action 
 peculiar to Englishmen did, by his wonderful power of 
 adaptation, draw to himself the love and heartfelt affection 
 of our whole nation ; and by his efforts set on foot that 
 magnificent exposition of Art and Industry, — the Inter- 
 national Exhibition of 1851, — that we cannot but congrat- 
 ulate ourselves on the rare felicity of this occasion. Your 
 Royal Highness has been engaged in unveiling a memorial 
 of the late Prince Consort, your honoured Father, and you 
 now come to grace with the presence of yourself and your 
 august partner, our feeble efforts to perpetuate and extend 
 the benefit of his labours. We feel greatly encouraged by 
 your countenance and support, and earnestly pray that this 
 effort of ours may be blessed to that class for whose benefit 
 it has been specially designed, and that it may be a means 
 of elevating the tastes and moral tone of our population, and 
 that in the time to come you may reign for many years, as 
 
406 
 
 4-2 
 
 our beloved sovereign (whom may God long preserve) now 
 reigns over a free, loyal, intelligent, moral, and therefore 
 happy people. 
 
 We desire again to tender our warmest thanks for your 
 patronage and support, and pray that your Royal Highnesses 
 may long be preserved in health, to be a blessing to each 
 other and to the people of these realms. 
 
 COPY OF HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS’S REPLY. 
 
 Gentlemen of the Executive Committee of the Yorkshire 
 Fine Art and Industrial Exhibition. 
 
 The Princess and myself thank you for the terms of 
 affection and devotion in which you have expressed your- 
 selves towards the Queen and the Royal Family. To visit 
 this Exhibition of Art and Industry has been our most 
 anxious desire on coming to York. To witness so successful 
 a result of your labours can only increase the satisfaction we 
 experience at the opportunity thus afforded us. 
 
 It is impossible for me to pass unnoticed the allusion you 
 have made to him who may be considered the founder of 
 these Exhibitions in England — my revered Father, or to 
 omit my grateful acknowledgments for the justice you have 
 done to his memory. 
 
 My last act has been to inaugurate a memorial to per- 
 petuate it, and I now behold here another practical result of 
 all his thoughts and efforts for the promotion of Art and 
 Science in England. That such a result must be beneficial, 
 cannot be doubted ; for the elevation of the taste of the 
 people, and the cultivation of a higher order of enjoyment 
 cannot fail to be accompanied by increased happiness and 
 improved habits of morality and religion.

 DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIZE MEDAL. 
 
 In the centre of the obverse are the arms and insignia of office 
 pertaining to the City and Corporation of York, with a chaplet of the 
 White Rose, surrounded hy various emblematic figures, representing 
 the Arts and Sciences, Commerce and Agriculture. The two prin- 
 cipal figures are, first, Cyhele, the Earth, her head surrounded hy a 
 mural crown indicative of cities generally ; the other, a figure in 
 armour, having special reference to the City of York, and points to 
 the heroic, hut unsuccessful defence of the City at the time of the 
 Norman Conquest, at which period the armorial hearings of the City 
 assumed their present form. The Arts of Painting and Sculpture are 
 represented hy tablets bearing medallions of Et.ty and Elaxman, 
 natives of York. A Muse, representing Architecture, carries in her 
 hand a plan and elevation of the Exhibition Building ; other figures 
 holding the helm and the lictor’s rod refer to the powers and muni- 
 cipal privileges of the City ; and the introduction of the Muses of 
 History, Astronomy, Music, Medicine, &c., allude to the success with 
 which these subjects have been cultivated hy its Citizens. 
 
 The reverse is composed of a wreath of the White Rose surrounded 
 by a halo of rays (this was assumed as the badge of the House of 
 York, after the battle of Mortimer’s Cross in 1461) ; suspended from 
 this wreath are two shields hearing the Civic and Ecclesiastic Arms. 
 
 The Medal was designed hy Mr. John Bell, of York, and executed 
 hy Mr. Thomas Ottley, of Birmingham.
