T O His Royal Hifftiness Prince Al^rt
belongs the honour of originating
a scheSribich bas the noble object ol
hringing nations together hy the ex¬
tension of industry and commerce, and
Ss in the bond, of a brother-
hnod wrought by a means which, since
?he wS Ss cLinenced, hath never
been attempted-means at once so d^
sirable and so praiseworthy, lo stimu¬
late a spirit of generous rivalry, to offer
the hand of friendship containing a pre¬
mium for tfve artist who excels in his
himdicraft, without reierence to the land
of his birth, or the political ^imosities
and prej^OiC/e^. wHjCih Jwe all ^ooloug
cra^nped^tha et.dAgWfr crushed the
abUiUes ot the skilful woiwrs who supply
the world’s wants, must have a more
beneficial effect upon the peace and good
will, which, for the sake of universal
happiness and pr 06 p^i‘y» should knit
nations togetliei, than any other eflfert
for the same desirable end winch has
yet been conceived.
%earo-power, with its gigantic com-
prebeiisiveness, has paved the way f®**
ti^progress ot world-wisdom. Railways
hftye caUiilit up tjie spirit, and the elec¬
tric telegruph uaR f^petuated it. Inter-
r/Mminiinication is youT Only certain
leveller of ignorwice, of prejudices, of
anhnosities, which are the oftsprmgs of
both; and the pi^ud eminence at which
England has arrived is the sole conse¬
quence of a proper understanding, as
well asx bold and free application of
this principle. It becomes England,
theretoie, tp, t^ke the initiative in this
world-wonder; and though many short¬
sighted people predict that “nothing will
come of It,” we are prepared to pin our
faith and experience to the assurance,
that the Great Industrial Exhibition of
1851 is but cpeiiiiig the flood gates for a
stream <d iutjd igence, which, \Tith re¬
sistless tM'g/^ willsweep away all barriers
interpos^ by that class who liave made
incessant struggles to stay human pro¬
gress, to keep buck with a wicked and a
crueily-oppressive spirit tlve emanations

THE HOME CIRCLE-aUIDE TO LONDOIST.
3
Independence, tbeir comfort, and their
true greatness, is enwoven in an enter¬
prising and a honourable commerce; and
that a realization of their true hopes of
national prosperity will sooner come to
pass by a noble rivalry like the present,
than were they to attempt to achieve a
proud pre-eminence by sending their tens
of thousands into the field of war, and
expend their millions of blood and trea¬
sure—a policv, be it remarked, which has
never failed to plunge the unhappy nation
pursuing such a path to ‘*glory’Mnto all
the perpiexi* ies of debt difficulties, from
which it is long ere it can emerge.
This great undertaking having been
projected, a royal commission was
appointed, and local committees formed
to carry out the obj^•ct. Designs for the
building were submitted from all parts
of the world, but M r. Paxton’s design was
chosen in preference to all others. The
contractors for the building are iMessrs.
Fox and Henderson, of Birmingham.
The sum for which tiie contractors are to
erect the building is j 6'79,800, or jd”!50,000
if the building is retained by the Commis¬
sioners appointed by her Majesty.
THE BUILDING IN HYDE PftHK.
The dimensions of this Palace of Glass
are 1,848 feet long, by 456 feet wide in the
broadest part, exclusive of the machinery
room. The height of tire principal centre
roof is 64 feet, the adjacent side portions
44 feet, the outer sides 24 feet, and the
transept, which will enclose some of the
large elm trees, is 108 feet high. 'Ihe
space occupied on the ground floor is
752,832 superficial feet. The total quan¬
tity of exhibiting surface is about 21
acres ; but if additional space is required,
an increased extent of 90,432 feet of gal¬
lery can be obtained. The total cubic
contents of the building is 33,000,000 feet.
The quantity of glass required is about
900,000 superficial feet, and weighing up¬
wards of 400 tons. All round the lower
tier of the building will be boarded, but
will in every respect resemble glass.
There are 3,300 cast and wrought iron
columns, varying from 14 feet 6 inches to
20 feet in length ; 2,224cast iron girders ;
and 1,128 intermediate bearers for sup¬
porting the floors of galleries. The sup¬
ports are found, after repeated experi¬
ments, to be capable of sustaining five
times the weight ever likely to be re¬
quired. There are 34 miles of gutters to
carry off the water, and in no part of the
building will the water have to run more
than 48 feet, before it is delivered into
the hollow columns ; but the greater part
.will not have to run half that distance.
The length of sash bar required is 205
miles. The building will be exceedingly
light, but the brightness will be tempered
and subdued by canvass or calico cover¬
ing on the outside of the roof, and all the
south side of the structure. This cover¬
ing will afford several advantages—it will
protect the glass from injury by hail—it
will subdue the li.:ht, and keep the build¬
ing cooler than if placed on the inside;
and will afford facilities for lowering or
increasing tne internal cemperamre at
pleasure. A copious ventilation will be
provided, four feet around the whole of
the basement part of the building being
made cf luffer boards, and at the top of
each pier of lights a similar provision
will be made, and a very copious supply
in the centre aisle; these will all open
and shut in the easiest possible manner
by a very simple machinery. The tran¬
sept is 72 feet wnie, and 108 feet in
height, witii a circular roof to enclose the
large elm trees opposite Prince’s Gate.
This iransept will be arched, Inclosing
within it, as in a glass*case, a row of trees.
When closed in and completed, the view
presented by thu interior will be wonderfully
graceful and splendid. The central avenue,
with rows of j illars shooting off from it on
either side, and so arranged that the eye can
traverse freely to every part of the build¬
ing, must have a very ^and appearance.
comme celle en question que de I’orgueil-
leuse pi^eminence qu’elles pourraient
conquerrr par leurs armies sur les champs
de batailles au prix de leurs tresors et de
leursang.
Cette grande entreprise ayant ete pro-
iet^e, une commission royale fat formee,
et des Comit^s locaux s^organisferent
pour en preparer I’ex^cution. Des plans
de construction arriv^rent de toutes les
parties du monde; mais les desseins de
M. Paxton obtinrent la preference.
Les soumissionnaires pour I’erection
del’edifice,sont MlVI.Foxet Henderson,
de Birmingham. La somme qui doit
leur etre payee estftxee a ^79,8)0 pour
les travaux seuleinent, independamment
de la proprfete des materiaux ; ou
j 6'150,000 si la Commission nomraee par
sa Majeste juge a propos de retenir la
propriete absolue de I’edifice.

BATIMENT DANS HYDE PARK.
Les dln»ensions de ce palais de verre,
Bont de l,848 pi«ds de long, sur 456 dans
sa plus gtande largeu**, sans compter la
salle destinee aux machines. La hauteur
du toit principal du centre, est de 64
pieds; celle des toils lateraux adjacents
44 pieds; celle des autres toils lai ^raux 24
pieds ; et le transsept, qui renfermera
quelques uns des grands ormes du Parc,
aura 108 pieds de hauteur. L’espace
occupy par le rez-de-chauss^e compreud
une surface de 752,832 pieds. La sommg
totale de surface occup^e pa^r I’exposition,
21 arpents; mais siunespaoe addiiioiinel
devient n(5cessaire, une ^tendue de 90,432
pieds de galerie pourra 6tre ajoute. l.a
somme cubique delfespace coutenu dans
le batiinent est de 33,000,000 |ieds; la
quantife de verre- reqiiise, 9 )0,000 pieds
en superrscie, pesant plus de 400 lonneaux,
( 40 J, 0 U 0 kilogrammes.) Le pourtour de
I’dtage inf^rieur seia lainbrisse; mais
de telle sorte que les lambris aurout,
sous tous les rapports, I’apparence de
verre. Les colonnes sont au iiombre <le
3,300 taut en fonte qu’en fer battu, ayant
de 14 pieds 6 ponces a 20 pieds de
hauteur ; 2,224 sommiers de fonte; et
1,1-28 supports intermediaires pour le
plancher des galeries. Des experiences
repetdes ont prouve que les supports
pourraient soutenir cinq fois le poids
dont ils seront probablement chariies.
Les gouttieres com portent une longueur
de 34 inilles, ayant des tuyaux d’^coule-
hient distants I’un de I’autre de 48 pieds
auplus, mais geiferalement de lamoitfede
cetespace. Lalongut-urduchassi.^acoulsse
requisc,est de205 mines. Le b&timentsera
exce^sivem'ent eclaire, mais Ifeclat de la
lumifere y sera adouci par une espace de
couverture de calico oude canevas sur la
surface ext6-ieure du toit et le long de
tout le cot^ irferidional ue I’^difice. Cette
couverture pr^sentera plusieurs avan-
tages: elle profegeia le verre centre la
gr^le, elle temp^rera la lumiere, ihttr-
ceptera la chaleur mieux que si elle 6iait
fix^e a I’int^rieur. Une hauteur dc quatre
pieds autour du bS,timent, et au sommet
de chaque ^tage ^lant laiss^e a jour a la
manifere des persiennes, une ventilation
parfaite sera asaur^e; les peisiennes
s’ouvriront et se fermeront au moyen d un
mdcanisine trfes simple.
Le transsept a 72 pieds de large, 108 de
hauteur, et un toit circulaire pour ren-
fermer les grands ormes qui se trouveiit
en face de la Grille du lYince (Prince s
G-ate). Ce transsept sera voffte, reu-
fermant, comme sous un globe de verre,
toute une rang^e n’arbres; quaiid il seia
complet et ferrn^, la perspective de
I’interieur sera charmante, et d’un envet
grandiose. L’avenue centrale, avec ses
lignes de colonnes, divergeant de chaque
cofe, et dispos^es de fa^on que I’oeil puisse
errer librement diirrs toutes les parties
de I’editice, pr^sentera une apparence
imposaiite.

4 THE HOME CIKCLE—OUIDE TO LONDON.
Besides the immense space devotea to
the general purposes of the Exhibition,
there will be on the north side of the build-
i ing a room set apart for the reception of
I I machinery. It will be 9^6 feet long, 48
I I feet I'.road, and 24 feet high. Another
! i feature of the building will be the Refresh-
I j merit Courts, which are to be divided into
j i three classes.
j ! From north to south, and across the
i' breadth of the structure the flooring will
be perfectly level, from west to east it will
I be slightly inclined. A light iron railing
I will enclose the buildin;? at a distance of
eight feet from its exterior, and beyond that
j there will be a footpath. The grand en-
j trance will be nearly opposite the Prince's
i Gateway, and will have seven pairs of doors.
Ample arrangements have been made, how-
j ever, lor the ^eotry and exit of visitors at
i other points. About 1,500 hands are em-
i ployed, it is estimated.
I The new building in Hyde Park is a
I novelty in architecture, and a novelty upon
1 a grand scile. It is to be provided with
many galleries, where specimens of industry
j will be exhibited, aid where, therefore,
; I crowds of visitors will assemble to inspect,
i I Considering the materials used, therefore,
; I it is most important that every care should
! ' be taken toinsu.c the safety of these gal-
I j leries. Blessrs. F<>x and Henderson say
j that they have adopted every precaution in
j I this respect, and that their calculations of
' strength are sucii as to render an accident
j I from the crowding of spectators impossible, j
! j The articles to be admitted are classed
II under the following four sections:—
Section I. Raw Materials and Produce,—illustra-
; tive of the natural productions on
i which human industry is employed.
' Sec. II. Machinery for Agricultural, Manufac-
j taring, Engineering, and other pur¬
poses and Mechanical inventions,—
j illustrative of the agents which
I human ingenuity brings to bear upon
j the products of nature.
! Sec. hi. Manufactures,—illustrative of the re¬
sult produced by the operation of
human industry upon natural pro¬
duce.
Designs for Manufactures are to be arl-
admitted in the same sect ion with the
class of articles for which they are
proposed.
Sec. IV, Sculpture, Models, and the Plastic Art.
generally,—illustrative of the taste
' and skill displayed, in such applica ¬
tions of human industry.
It will be understood, and may be con¬
ceived, that each section is capable of the
j most extensive ramification, and that the
! four will embody almost every species of
handicraft upon which the ingenuity of
I man has been directed. The last day for
I applications for ground was on the 31st
j of October. The building will be linished
! upon the Ist of January, 1851, and the
Exhibition opened to the public upon the
1st of May, To facilitate the visits of
the arti'/.ans from all parts of the United
Kingdom, as well as from foreign parts,
the Commissioners have issued the fol¬
lowing :—
ARRANGE.MENTS FOR THE VISITS
OF THK
WORKIxNG CLASSES.
With the view of affording information,
a register has been opened at No. 1, Old
Palace Yard, Westminster, by the Secre¬
tary of the Executive Committee for the
Exhibition of 1851, in which will be
entered the names and addresses of per¬
sons disposed to provide accommodation
for artizans from the country whilst visit-
ing the Exhibition next year. Copies of
this Register of Lodgings may be had on
application. Other arrangements are
under consideration for guiding the
workiiig classes on their arrival by the
trains to the lodgings they may select..
The register contains a column in which
the particulars, &c., of the accommoda¬
tion each party proposes to afford will
be entered. All applications for partici¬
pating in these arrangements must be
made through local committees.
It must be clearly understood, that
wmlst Her Majesty’s Commissioners are
desirous of collecting the fullest informa-
ralle aura 946 pieds de long, 48 de large,
et 24 pieds de hauteur. Un autre ac-
cessoire original du batiment, se trouve
dans les cours de rafraichissements, qui
seront divis^es en trois classes.
Du nord au sud et danstoutela largeur
de I’^difice le plancher sera parfaitement
de niveau; mais de I’ouest a Test il in-
clinera l^g^reraent. Le b&timent sera
environne a la distance de 8 pieds par
une grille l^g^re, audela de laquelle sera
un sender pour les pistons. La grande
entree fera face a la Grille du Prince; elle
se composera de 7 portes a deux battants.
Des mesures seront prises cependant pour
faciliter I’entr^e et la sortie des visiteurs
sur d’autres points. On estime que les
travaux de construction occuperont en¬
viron 1,500 ouvriers.
Le batiment dans Hyde Park est une
nouveaut^ architecturale et une nouveaut^
sur une grande ^chelle. II sera pourvu de
nombreuses galeries, oti des ^chantillons
de produits industriels seront exposi^s
Considerant la nature des materiaux
employes il est done de la dernifere ini-
portance que les soins les plus minutieux
soient pris pour assurer la solidity de ces
galeries. M.M. foxet Henderson assurent
qu’on a pris k cet ^gard les plus grandes
precautions de sorte qu’un accident
resultant de la grande affluence des spec-
tateurs est impossible.
Les artic es susceptib^es d’etre admis
sont classes dans les 4 sections suivantes:
S/fcTioN lire. Produit et Materiaux Bruts,—ex-
po>ant les productions naturelles
sur lesquelles s’exerce I’industrie
bumaine.
Section 2e. Machines de.stinees il I’Affriculturc,
aux M anufactures, k la Mecanique,
&c.,—exposant les agents quu le
genie de I homme erapluie pour
approprier i ses besoins les pro¬
ductions de la nature.
Section 3e. Objets manufactures,—exposant les
resultats des operations de 1’In¬
dustrie humaine sur les produits
nature Is.
Les desseins pour diflTerents obje's
d’Industrie seront admis dans la
mime section que les articles k
la production desquels ils sont
de-tinis.
Section 4e Sculpture Modfelcs, et Art* Plas-
tiques en geniral, montrant le
goiit et I'adresse deployes dans
les applications de I’industrie
humaine.
On comprendra facilement que chaque
section est susceptible d’une ramification
^tendue, et que les quatre divisions ren-
ferment k peu pr^s toutes les espfeces
d’industrie sur lesquelles s’exerce
Padresse humaine. Le dernier jour pour
les demandes d’empiacement mt fix^ au
31 Octobre, 1850. Le batiment doit fitre
termini le premier Janvier 1851, et I’ex
position sera oiiverte au public le premier
Mai. Pour faciliter les visites des arti¬
sans de tous les points du Royaume Uni,
aussi bien que des pays strangers, le»
commissaires ont public ce qui suit

THE HOME CIRCLE—G-UIDE TO LONDON,
tion likely to be serviceable to the work¬
ing classes, they do not propose to charge
themselves in any respect with the
management, but simply to afford in¬
formation.
A CONCISE
GUIDE TO LONDON;
SHOWING THE
BEST COURSE TO PURSUE ON
leaving HOME,
and WHAT TO DO ON ARRIVING IN
LONDON.
raake every arrange¬
ment whether your journey is to be made
singly or in parties, for your future guid-
comfort, in as plain and straight-
can, and keep as
Close as circumstances will permit to the
plan you have elected to pursue. If there
18 a party, a clear understanding respect-
ing monetary matters before the journey
« indispensable for your peace and good
and having once laid down rules
observance, adhere to
inem. Decide upon the locality in which
you mean to take up your quarters until
opportunity of a personal
H the full hope
and determination of being benefitted bv
your trip. Upon your arrival at the
Dondon railway terminus, look imme-
diately after your luggage; and having
obtained it, you will eitlier take a cab to
your destination—and, if you should,
consult our table of cab-fares—or you
will enter an omnibus. You will see
3- terminus whose routes lie
in all directions. Ask the conductor of
any one it his omnibus is going to the
locality upon which you have determined.
If he IS, he will hand you into his vehicle
11 not, he will point out to you one that
IS. If you should have a gold watch and
chain, studs, or jewellery of any kind
valuable, do not ostentatiously display
It, and give a moment’s attention that
your money is safe where you put it. The
hurry and confusion consequent upon
the arrival of a heavily-laden train is
sometimes taken advantage of by dis¬
honest characters; and though the police
are very attentive and alert, yet the
thieves occasionally elude their vigilance.
Une of the railway porters will carry your
for you to cab or omnibus, and he
^^^<^wed to take any fee. Your fare
will be by omnibus 3d. or 6rf. The fares
are painted on a large ticket inside the
oinnibus, and you cannot be deceived:
hut both cab drivers and omnibus con-
cb^ge for luggage. The
iatter usually charge sixpence, unless
there is more than one trunk, and in that
case one shilling will be found sufficient.
Waving arrived at your destination, if
a your friends,
a post-office will be easily found in your
hint search for one yourself,
opon the one
laifJi • post-office you will find a
label giving you the number of the house.

Avant de partir, soit que vous deviez
voyager seul ou en compagnie, prenez
tous les arrangements necessaires a votre
direction future et a votre bien-^tre;
que votre plan soit aussi simple que
possible, et suivez le aussi fid^lement que
les circonstances vous le permettront. Si
vous voyagez en compagnie, une conven¬
tion explicite relativement aux affaires
p6cuniares est e^sentielle a votre tran¬
quillity, et a la bonne intelligence de la
society. Quand une fois vous aurez adopty
une rygle de conduite soyez-y fideie.
Dycidez d’avance Pendroit ou vous voulez
demeurer jusqu’ k ce que vous ayez I’oc-
casion de choisir d’apr^s votre propre
ppyrience, et partez avec la ferme ry^o-
lution de profiter de votre excursion. A
votre arrivye a Londrea occupez vous
immydiatement de votre bagage. Quand
une fois vous I’aurez, prenez un fiacre,
aprys avoir consulte notre liste des prix
qu ils ont le droit d’exiger selon les
distances, ou montez dans un omnibus
Informez vous d’un conducteur si son
omnibus se dirige vers la locality que
vous avez choisie, si tel est le cas il vous
*®^^.hionter; si non, il vous indiquera
celui dont vous avez besoin. Si vous
avez une montre d’or, une chaine, des
Doutons ou qiielqu’ autre bijou, ne les
ytalez pas par ostentation, mais assurez
vous que votre argent est en surety, oh
vous I’avez mis. La confusion et la hate
rysultant inyvitablement de I’arrivyed’un
train nombreux, offre une occasion trop
favorable aux filous pour qu’ils negligent
d’en profiler; et, quoique la police soit
alerte et attentive, les voleurs yiudent
quelquefois sa vigilance. Un des com-
missionnaires du chemin de fer poriera
votre bagage au fiacre ou a I’oomibus, et
il lui est defendu de rien prendre pour ce
service. L’omnibus vous cOutera 6 sous,
ou 12 sous: le prix est marquy en gros
caractyres a I’intyrieur, ainsi vous ne
pourrez fitre trompy a cet ygard; mais les
conducteurs du fiacre ou de I’omuibus
ont droit de vous faire payer pour votre
bagage, le dernier demande rarement
plus de 12 sous pour une seule malle ou
un seul paquet, s’il y en a alusiers un
shilling, ou 24 sous, suffira ordinaireinent.
Arrivy a votre destination, si vous
desirez ycrire a vos amis, vous trouverez
aisyment un bureau de poste dans le voi-
sinage; si vous voulez mettre votre lettre
a la poste vous-m^me, regardez aux
colonnes de ferqui portent les reverbyres
la plus proche du bureau de poste porte
une inscription qui vous indiquera le
numyro de la inaison.
Si vous n’avez pas dycidy a 1’ avance
Ou vous voulez loger, et quy vous dyter-
miniez pour un hotel, une auberge, ou
un logement garni, il y en a plusieurs
dans Jermyn Street, St. James Street,
Albemarle Street, Bond Street, et Dover
Street; mais ce sont des hdtels de pre-
miyre classe et fort chers. Nous allons
ynumyrer quelques hdtels de t»-oisiyme

a body, are moderate in charge s, every-
tiling very good, clean, and safe. Private
lodgings may be obtained also in most
of the streets leading out of the Strand,
Jermyn Street, Holies Street, Oxford
Street, Bayswater, Knightsbndge, and
Kensington, the last three named places
are in the immediate vicinity of Hyde
Park and of the Exhibition.
Presuming that you are now in London,
you will experience no difficulty in finding
your way to the great building in Hyde
Park; but if you can make your stay
sufficiently long, there are many

dresses, vases, lamps, bowls, cups,

bles, obtained by Dr. Layard for
England, are worth especial attention^

mous collection of vases, discovered m

THE HOME CIKCLE—GUIDE TO LONDON.
9
September. The Gallery is wholly closed
during: the last two weeks of September
and the month of October. The London
visitor must not omit viewing: this col¬
lection. One-half of this building is
voted to the Royal Academy, and their
annual exhibition of pictures is open
from May 1 to the end of July. Ad¬
mission Is.
WESTMINSTER ABBEY,
Situated opposite to the Houses of Par¬
liament, in a direct line from Charing
Cross, and about ten minutes walk dis¬
tant. It is a venerable piece of antiquity,
said to have been founded by Sebert,
King of the East Saxons, 616; rebuilt and
completed, as it now stands, by Henry
III. and his son, Edward I. The whole
of our English sovereigns, from the first
Edward to our present gracious Majesty,
were crowned here, and many of them
repose here in monumental splendour;
there are also the tombs of eminent
statesmen, warriors, sailors, poets, actors
and actresses, musicians, divines, and
antiquaries, besides an extensive number
of other eminent persons. The first
thing to do is to wait and to form a party,
so that a guide may take you to examine
Poet’s Corner ; then the Chapel of St.
Benedict. There are some interesting
tombs here. You next enter St. Ea-
mund\t Ch tpel; thirdly, the Chapel of
St. Nicholas; fourthly, that of the Vir¬
gin Mary, or Henry the Seventh’s
Chapel. In each of these chapels the
monuments are of the most curious and
interesting kind. In that of Henry the
Seventh, the altar tomb, with the effi¬
gies, is truly, as Lord Bacon describes
it, one of the stateliest and daintiest in
Europe.” The South and North
Aisles contain tombs of remarkable
persons. The next chapel, and fifth, is
that of St. PauVs; the sixth is that of
Edward the Confessor^ and, without
doubt, is the most interesting portion of
the building : it is called the “ Chapel of
the Kings,” The shrine of Edward the
Confessor is exceedingly curious and
beautiful; the altar,tombs,and effigies are
superb, the coronation chairs still used,
and the screen are well worthy of the best
attention. The next chapel is dedicated
to St, ErasmuSy and the eighth that of
St. John the Baptist. The ninth is that
of Abbot Islip. The cAoir, or cross of
the transepts, is the best spot for inspect¬
ing the architecture of the abbey. Tne
guide has now fuliilled his duties, and
departs. You should not omit to visit
the north transept, the nave, and the
south transept, nearly the half of which
is occupied by Poet’s Corner. On quitting
the abbey visit the cloisters, which you
will find by passing through St. Mar¬
garet’s Churchyard (the church which
stands contiguous to the abbey), and
entering the Dean’s Yard, and in the
north and south cloister you will find
much to interest you. The abbey may
be seen on any week days, and the ex¬
pense a mere trifle. Close to Westminster
Abbey you will see Westminster Hall
—the old hall of the palace of the kings at
Westminster. The Law Courts of England,
four in number, are held here in courts
abutting from the hall itself; they are,
the Court of Chancery, the Court of
Queen’s Bench, the Court of Common
Pleas, and the Court of Exchequer.
These courts may be entered by the
visitor, should any of them be sitting,
without expence, the most discreet con¬
duct and perfect silence being essential.
The hall is very ancient, being originally
built in the reign of William Rufus.
THE NEW HOUSES OF
PARLIAMENT
Are situated on the left bank of the River
Thaines, near to Westminster Bridge,
and immediately opposite Westminster
Abbey. This “ Palace at Westminster”

WESTMINSTER ABBEY
Situed en face des chambres du Parle-
ment, en ligne directe de Charing Cross,
dont elle n’est distante qued’environ dix
minutes, est un monument v^n^rable
d’antiquit^. Elle fut, dit-on, fondle par
Sebert roi des Saxons de I’Est en 6l6;
rebSltie et compli^t^e telle qu’elle existe
auiourd’hui par Henry III,, et son fils,
Edward ler. Tons les souverains de 1’
Angleterre, depuis Edouard I., jusqu’ k
sa Majesty, la reine r^gnante, out ^t^
I couronn^s dans 1’Abbaye deWestminster,
I ou plusieurs d’entre eux ont des monu¬
ments splendides. L’Abbaye renferme
aussi les tombes des hommes d’dtat
^minents, guerriers, marins, pontes, ac-
teurs, actrices, musiciens, thdologiens, et
antiquaires c^l^bres, sans compter nom-
bre d’autres personnages remarquables.
La premiere chose k laire quand on veut
visiter I’Abbaye de Westminster est
d’arranger une Boci^t^, de sorte qu’un
mfime guide puisse vous conduire tous
ensemble pour examiner le Poet’s Cor¬
ner, (coin reserve aux pontes); puis la
Chapelle de St. Benoit, oh il y a quelques
tombes ffcmarquables. Vous entrez de
la dans la Chapelle de St. Edmund ;
puis dans cede de St. Nicholas et, qua-
tri^inement, dans celle de la Vierge
Marie, ou d’Henri Sept. Dans toutes ces
chapel les sont des monuments tr^s cu-
rieux et tr^s int^ressants; dans celle d’
Henri VII. I’autel en forme de tombeau
et les effigies qui I’accompagnent sont
vraiment, comme Lord Bacon les appelle,
les plus imposants et les plus d^Iicats
qui existent en Europe. L’Aile M^ridio-
nale et la Septentrionale renferment des
tombes de personnages remarquables.
La conqui^ine chapelle est celle de St.
Paul; la s.xi^me, celle d’Edouard leCon-
fesseur, est sans comredit la portion la
plus int^ressante de tout I’edifice; on
I’appelle‘‘lachapelledesroisJL’ Lachasse
de St. Edouard est fort belle et excessive-
ment cui ieuse. L’autel les, tombes, et les
effigies sont magnitiques. Les corona¬
tion chairs servent au couronnemeni des
souverains Anglais, La grille est digne
d une attention particuli^re. La chapelle
suivaute est dedi^e a St. Erasme, et la
huitieme a St. Jean Baptiste. La neu-
vi^jrae est celle de I’Abb^ Islip. Le

THE HOME CIECLE—aUIDE TO LONHOK
is considered to be one of the most mag^>
nificent buildings in Europe; and is, un¬
questionably, the largest Gothic edifice
in the world. The architect is Charles
Barry, Esq., B-A. It covers an area of
nearly eight acres. The first stone was
laid April 27, 1840. It has four fronts ;
the principal, which is 900 feet in length,
being that facing the river. There are
three principal towers—the Royal or
Victoria Tower, the Central Tower, and
the Clock Tower. The Victoria Tower is
75 feet square, and will be, when com¬
pleted, 340 feet high; the Grand Central
Tower is 60 feet in diameter, and 300 feet
to the top of the lantern, by which it is
to be surmounted. The Clock Tower is
40 feet square, surmounted above the
clock with a belfry spire rising to 320
feet. The apartments of the Speaker
and the Sergeant-at-Arms are at the
Westminster Bridge end, and those of
the Usher of the Black Rod and the
Lords’ Librarian at the opposite or
south-west etKl. The rooms above are
for committees of either house. The
principal public entrances are from the
Old Palace Yard, or Westminster Hall.
The Royal entrance is at the Victoria
Tower, on the right hand of which is the
robing room; contiguous to this is a gal¬
lery, 110 feet in len^b, 45 feet wide, and
45 feet high; thence ensues the Prince’s
Chamber, and then the House of Peers.
This is 97 feet long, 45 feet in width, and
in iieight 45 feet. This is, perhaps, the
most magnificent chamber in the world.
The House of Commons is 62 feet long,
4>5 in width, and the same in height. The
members’ entrance is either by the public
ones or by Star-chamber Court, which, is
priv^ate. St. Stephen's Hail is 95 feet long
by 30 feet wide, and 50 feet high. This
hall is to decorated with frescoes, and the
windows are to be of stained glass, of
rare device. 1 he clock, in the Clock
Tojver, is being conducted under the
supel intendiwice of Professor Airey, the
Royal Astronomer. It will be an eight-
day cluck. It will strike the hours on a
ben weighing nine or ten tons, chime
th€ quarters on eight.bells, and will have
foir dials, 30 feet in diameter, nearly
doable the size of that of St. Paulas.
Ttis magnificent building will, it is ex¬
pected, before it is completed, cost one
m iliou and a half. Mode of Admission
to Inspect the House of Lords—order
fnoin the Lord Great Chamberlain, or
tfe personal introduction of a peer whilst
tie House is not sittins:. The orders are
available only on Wednesdays, between
ehven and four. Mode of admission to
tte Strangers’ Gallery to hear the de¬
bates—a peer’s order. Mode of Admis-
sitn to the Commons—z. member's order,
Aiy member can give you an order.
Tike care to keep free from the thorough¬
fare to the door. The House of Com-
mms empties at seven p.m., and refills
alout dine p.m.
WHITEHALL.
This was originally the palace of the
lings of England, from Henry VIII. to
Villiam III. All that remains is the
binqueting-house, built by Imgo Jones.
Tus is nearly opposite the entrance to the
lorse Guards, and is not five minutes’
wdk from Charing Cross. It is considered
tie masterpiece of Inigo Jones. In front
<f the banqueting bouse Charles I.
yas beheaded; at the back of the building
sthe statue of James II. The ceiling is
fainted by Rubens. It was converted
nto a chapel during the reign of George I
tut has never been consecrated. It is
lere on Maunday Thursday, the queen’s
tharity is bestowed on several aged men
md women, in 17*23, the grandson of
Miver Cromwell was here married to a
laughter of Sir Robert Thornhill, by the
iishop of London.

arge proportion is railed in, tastefully

meilleur endroit pour prendre une vue
gdn^rale de I’abbaye. Ici le guide,

visiter le transsept septentrional, la
*ief, et le transsept meridional, dont

quer. Si quelqu’une de ces cours tient
alors son audience, le visiteur peut entrer
gratis; mais la conduite la plus respec-
tueuse et le silence le plus parfait sent
indispensables. La salle est tr^s an-
cienne, ayant ^fe bfitie sous le r^gne de
William Rufus.

Here you will notice the statue of
Charles /., 'I rafalgsir Square and loun-
tains, with Nelson’s Column, and the
statue of George IV. Journeying east¬
ward you will pass down the istraim;
turn down Hungerford Street, which
will be on your right hand, and take
a look at Hungerford \lARKET,and the
Hungerford Suspension Bridge—
it is lor foot passe-.igeis only. It was
constructed hy 1. K. Brunei, and wav
opened in April 18, 1845. It consists of
three arches; the span of the centre is
676 feet 8 inches, 'i'he height of the
roadway from iii^h-water mark at the
abutments is 22 feet 6 inches ; at the
pier^, 28 feet; and in the centre, 32 feet.
The clear width of the roadway is U feet,
and the height of the two towers, or piers,
which carry the chains, is 58 feet above
the road. The first stone was laid in 1841;
and the total cost, including the purchase
of property, parliarnentarv, law, and other
expenses, was ^6*110,000. All the wood
employed in the construction is Paynized,
and the quantity of iron consumed be¬
tween 10,u00 and 11,000 tons. From here
you will have a good view of Waterloo
Bridge, which is considered the noblest
bridge in the wor.d. It is built all of
granite, is, perfectly level, is 2 456 feet in
length, ami cost one ttiiihon ot money.
John Rennie was the engineer. It was
opened on the I8th of June, 1817. Re¬
turning to Uie ritrand, and continuing
down It, you will come to Somerset
House. It is a magnificent pile of build¬
ings, and will well repay inspection. Here
is the School ot Design, the Society of

THE HOME CIKCLE—aUIDE TO LONDON.
TEMPLE BAR AND CHTTRCH.
TEMPLE BAR is a ^jateway which
divides the Strand from Fleet Street,
and also the City from the Shire. There
has been a gate here many years; the
present was built by Sir Christopher
Wren, in 1670. This gate is closed
by the City authorities whenever the
Queen pays the City the honour of a visit.
It is not closed at any other time. A
few paces through the bar, and the first
turning on the right, will lead you into
the Temple. It originally was the habita¬
tion of the Knight Templars, from whom
it takes its name; it is now the abode of
lawyers. The Church, built in 1185, is
divided into two parts, the Round Church
and the Choir, which was not added until
1240. The church was restored, altered,
and beautified, at a cost of .:670,000, in
1839-42. Leaving this, you w;I! pass
down Fleet Street, proceed up Ludgate
Hill, and come to
ST. PAUL’S CATHEDRAL.
The entrance is at the north door. Di¬
vine service is performed daily at 8 in
the morning in the chapel, at ^ before 10
in the choir, and in the afternoon at ^
past 3 in the choir. The doors are opened
i of an hour before the beginning of each
service. Visitors are admitted to see the
building except during the time of divine
service. Cost of Admission .—To view

The length of the cathedral, from east to
west, is 500 feet; breadth of the body of
the church. 500 feet; campanile towers
are each 222 feet high; and the height of
the whole building from the pavement to
tJje top of the cross, is 404 feet. The
whole cost was ^£“747,954 2s. 9d. It was
paid by a tax on coals. The interior is
highly interesting; the Whispering Gal¬
lery, and the ascent, though trying, is
repaid by a splendid view of London Irom
the outer gallery. Leaving St. Paul’s,
you proceed down Cheapside, where you
will have at one view the BANK of ENG¬
LAND, the MANSION HOUSE, and the
Royal exchange. The inspection
of the first, which is the principal bank
ot deposit and circulation in Europe
(it was altered, and in most part rebuilt*
by Sir John Soane,) will satisfy alaudable
curiosity. A visit to the Royal Ex¬
change will be well i;epaid; and one to
the Mansion House, to hear the Lord
Mayor adjudicate upon the cases of civil
and criminal law brought before him.
Put a short distance from the Mansion
House, hewing round to the right, and
left, is theMONU-
MENT, on lish-street Hill. This is a
fluted column of the Doric Order, raised
to commemorate the Great Fire of Lon-
^n. It was desigtied by Sir Christopher
Wren and completed in 1677, for the
sum of ^13,700. It is 202 feet high - R

Hot se, the Lion Tower, &c.,) the area of
the Tower, within the walls, is above

whi( !i is 111 the Bloody Tower, was said,
by t e Duke of Wellington, to be the only

THE MINT,

is no ; transferable, and can only be used
on tl e day which it bears date. The name

THE HOME CIECLE—OUIDE TO LONDON.
Hall, and the Round Tower, from the
top of which twelve counties can be seen,
and the many erections, forming a grand
and imposing scene, render the visit of
the most interesting description. St.
George’s Chapel, at Windsor, must also
be visited. The interior is very perfect.
The puVilic are admitted Tuesdays,
Thursdays, and Saturdays, from ten to
} four, to view the Castle by ticket, to be
had at Ackermann’s, 96, Strand, but the
guide expects a gratuity.
HAMPTON COTJRT PALACE
stands on the northern bank of the
Thames, 12 miles west of London. The
fares, by theSouth W,estern Railway, are—
first class, 2s. 6d.; second class, Is. 9d.;
third class. Is. The manor is very old,
being willed in 1211 to the Knights Hos¬
pitallers of St. John of Jerusalem, by
whom it was leased to Cardinal Wolsey,
in the reign of Henry Vlll.; in 1515 he
rebuilt it in a splendid manner. It has
passed in succeeding centuries through
varieties of hands, until it has come into
those of the people, whom we trust will
not, as has been rumoured, be deprived
of it. The Great Hall, the Guard
Chamber, the King’s Grand Staircase,
the Presence and Audience Chambers,
the King’s and Queen’s Bedrooms, her
Majesty’sGallery,the Public Dining-room,
the Queen’s Private Chapel, the Gardens
and Park are to be seen. There are two
remarkable features—the first is the Vine,
which is supposed to be the largest in
the world: it is above 110 feet long;
near the ground the stem is nearly three
feet in circumference ; in a prolific sea¬
son it produces more than 2,500 bunches
of grapes. The second curiosity is the
Maze; it is the source of much fun and
enjoyment. Steam-boats from London
come here has well as covered vans, the
latter charging the moderate fare of
Is. 6d. there and back.
DULWICH COLLEGE, situated at
Dulwich, about nine miles from London,
contains a fine collection of pictures by
the old masters, bequeathed by Alleyn,
an actor. The College gives shelter to a
number of aged men, whose qualifica¬
tions tor entrance rest chiefly upon their
being exactly the same name as the
founder.
LONDON
is situated on the banks of the Thames,
and is in four counties—Middlesex and
Essex on the north of the Thames, Surrey
and Kent on the south. The north side
comprises an area of 43 square miles ; the
south is 8 square miles. The population
is upwards of 2,200,000. The m^st impos¬
ing entiance into London is from the
London Bridge Railway Station. It at
once conveys a strong impression of the
vast riches and commerce of the largest,
the wealthiest, best-drained, and best
lighted city on the globe.
We have now taken the stranger to
the most important places in this vast
metropolis. It is needless to say that
there are many places worthy of being
seen not included in this list, but there
are few of them which cannot be seen
during the progress to those which we
have pointed out. Out of the vast num¬
bers of visitors, by whose presence Lon¬
don will be honoured on this grand
occasion, the stay of a very considerable
number will necessarily be limited, and
we cannot therefore too strongly point
out the importance of an economy of
time—plan out the route it is intended
shall each day be taken, and as near as
possible follow it out, or you may return
without having seen one-half you hoped
or expected. In conclusion, we say to
all our readers, we greet you with a hearty
welcome to London; sincerely hoping that
your trip will be pleasant and profitable,
and that at your safe return home you
will look back upon all the circumstances
connected with your journey, with the
most perfect satisfaction.
