PRESERVATION OF LIFE FROM SHIPWRECK.

Obeerm.—Bust of Her Majesty Queen Victoria; beneath, in minute letters, " L. C. Wyon." Double legend, " Royal National Life-boat Institution. Founded in 1824.

Incorporated 1860. Victoria, Patroness." Reverte.— Three sailors in a Life-boat,—one of whom is in the act of rescuing an exhausted mariner from the waves on a fragment of the wreck. " W. Wyon, Mint." Inscription, " Let not the deep swallow me up." THE beautiful obverse of this medal, which has recently been executed by L. C. WYON, Esq., represents the bust of QOE'ES VICTORIA, Her Majesty's locks gracefully waving and gathered in a knot behind, from which issues a wreath of oak clustering over the forehead. This life-like portrait of the QUEEN, in high relief, conveys a truly pleasing and faithful likeness of Her MAJESTY, combining dignity of aspect and benevolence of nature ; and represented by Mr. WYON with the most exquisite finish, delicacy, and beauty of workmanship.

The reverse, representing the Life-boat, in which there are three Sailors, rescuing a fourth from the sea, is a work of superlative merit. Two of the Sailors are steadying the boat, while the other, stooping, draws in the Shipwrecked Sailor, whose figure is given so as to show the form in the most natural and beautiful manner; and the expression thrown into his countenance looking up to his preserver is unrivalled by anything that we have ever seen, while the easy flowing lines of this sailor are finely contrasted by those of his companions: the whole displaying the most perfect knowledge of the human frame, the finest taste to arrange it, and a command of the graver to embody to us what the artist's bright genius had shadowed out to himself.

But there is another pleasing motive for our admiration of this beautiful Medal, as the figure who is so humanely extending his relief to the drowning Mariner is a portrait of the Artist (the late WILLIAM WYON, Esq., R.A.) himself.

The following is a LIST of the GOLD and SILVER MEDALS that have been voted by the Committee of this Institution, since its establishment in 1824, to persons whose humane and intrepid exertions in saving Life from Shipwreck on our Coasts have been deemed sufficiently conspicuous to merit that honourable distinction. The Cases will be found recorded in detail in the several Annual Reports of the Institution.

Note.—The asterisk (*) after the name denotes the reception of a Gold Medal.

The figure after the name signifies the number of honorary distinctions received from the Institution.
