Two portions of a Glass vase-shaped Lamp, richly coloured 

 and gilt, with an Arabic inscription; from the Mosque of 

 Sultan Hassan, at Cairo, date about 1360. [These curious 

 lamps are said to be of Syrian manufacture; Mr. Curzon 

 thinks it more probable "that these beautiful specimens of 

 ancient glass were made in the island of Murano, in the lagunes 

 of Yenice, as the manufactories of the Yenetians supplied the 

 Mahomedans with many luxuries in the middle ages'']. 



A series of impressions of Wilton Seals, consisting of the 

 Common seal of the Borough of Wilton; personal seal of the 

 Mayor ; the hospital of St. Giles ; the guild of weavers ; and 

 a personal seal of the 12th century, belonging to Joane, 

 daughter of Joannes Westone, found near the abbey of Wilton. 

 [The seal of the priory of St. John now in use is not the 

 original, it is circular and bears the Agnus Dei. The original 

 seal of the abbey of Wilton is engraved in the 8th vol. of the 

 Archaeologia, to which is added a learned essay on the subject 

 by the late F. Douce. This remarkable seal, of which two 

 imperfect impressions are known to exist, belongs to a period 

 not much later than the reign of King Edgar, and is probably 

 the oldest monastic seal in existence].
