The above shows an illustration of the silver cradle presented by the inhabitants of Kimberley and Beaconsfield, S.A.,to Mr. James Lawence, their Mayor, which has recently been on view at Messrs. Mappin Bros., Cheapside. The whole production is a splendid example of the English silversmiths' craft, and will, no doubt, be highly appreciated in South Africa.
