The nature of my design for a lamp-post is fully represented in the accompanying print7 to which reference is made.

The top ot'the column supporting the lamp is constructed in the ferm ofthe frusfuxn of' a concave cone, a, with an oval bead, b, at its top, and the plain cylindrical base c. Below the base c is a concave section, d, ornamented with upright ribs, and having the plain band e at the lower end. Below this is another section, tapering from the top downward, and ornainented with the scroll-ribsj', round studs g, pointed figures h, beads i', and the plain bandj. lhe brackets are ornaniented on the upper side by the scroll and leaf shaped figures in, coils I, and on the under side, at the tjunction with the post, b v the coils n. The column o is tinted, and figured at the lower end with the leatornaments p, embellished with the boss q and coils r, below which the base of the col` umn has the ring-beads s and i, with the crestshaped figures 'c between them. Below these beads is a section in the form of a frustuln of a cone, with the rounded base r, and having the scalloped and pointed band 'w around the upper portion, with bosses .r and pendants 1/ z. This section surxnounts a concave section with plain bands a', b', and d', the latter' being in the middle of the groove, together with the circular figures c', encircling a center hoss,j".

The bottom of the base is in the form of two convex conical figures, fixed together at the bases, and ornamented on the surface with the oval bands g', with scrolls h, beads t', three pointed figures, l', and the single points m.

The pedestal has the concave band n', plain bands o and 1J', and the oval fluted band q at the upper end, the tracery r on the middle portion, plain bands s and t and the concave a on the bottom. t
