Everywhere about ow le seen the slender pillars
and massive girders's( Ott building in Hyde-park,
soon to bo restaged to more than their
original elegance of arrangement in the new
palace. Already several of there raise their
heads in the air " like some tall Ammiral,"
indicating by their position the bas of the future
edifice. Considerable delay and difficulty have oc-
curred in this part of the work, in consequence of
the watery nature of the soil, and the permanent
character of the foundation required. Each pillar
is set in solid brick-work surmounting a deep bed of
concrete, and will thus be as firmly secured in its
piano as tho Nelson Column or the Monument.
Our of men may be seen hauling them with a
" whip" to their several stations, and the " Yo heave
ho" with which the operation is accompanied snakes
one almost fancy he is on shipboard. From
the spot upon which all this is taking
place the unrivalled prospect, which even the nib
of an October day cannot obscure, may be seen to
the best advantage. The green expanse, as it
descends undulating into Kent, is positively lovely
the autumnal tints, with whichthe trees ere now
thickly covered giving a rich and mellow beauty to
the landscape. In the park the activity of the
workmen is as perceptible as in the building.
Broad walks and esplanades have already been
laid out, and circular embankments are being thrown
up for the great henbane, which are to form so
important a feature in the decorations. In various
situations may be seen mysterious-looking mounds,
like fairy Rath*, which we imagined in our simplicity
formed part of the plan, but were informed they
were mere accumulatiocs of soil undergoing some
scientific process of decomposition, preparatory to
their being spread out on future flower beds. The
boring in the wood is being vigorously proceeded
with. Water has been found at a depth of 260 feet,
but a considerable further depth will be necessary to
ensure an abundant supply. Before leaving this
branch of the subject we may mention that prepare-
dins are being made for a novel and interesting
operation in arboriculture. The presiding. genius of
the place, Sir Joseph Paxton, proposes with charac-
teristic boldness to remove some large trees, which'
interfere with the buildingarrangements, bodily from
their present positions, and set them down quiet!!!

By some new process of which he is handl the
inventor, they will be taken up " all standing°
with the soil in whichthey grow and carried, on sent
machines, to another part of the grounds. The opera.
lion will be attempted in about s fortnight, and will
certainly be not the least interesting feature in the
undertaking. Simultaneously with all this activity
in building sad gardening, the various scientific
caterers for the interior attractions are busy in their
respective departments. The natural history speci-
muss are is a very forward state, under the active
superintendsnes of Mr. William Thomson, jun., and
vial he shiedin a building to be erected on the

seek Ishl in the Exhibition of HMI. The
Wartuaberg esusstisa a hardly forgotten by the
pails, and the artist who created it will pro-
bably be called into requisition in the present
case, together with those British artists who got up
the " Dodo " collection, and the beautiful prepara
tions et birch. It must be held, however, la kind
that the protectors of the New Crystal Palace has a
higher silt in view than producing mere ammemegasi
for the aye by grotesque arrangement. WWI
everythiag ato be made clear and simple to the
humblest capacity, there will be nothing to oared
the seleatific eye, or to damage the instructive al*
meter which is the pervading principle of the whale.
Dr. Lathan rid his assistants are busy in the eth
minima department, and negotiations are in pre-
gran with Mr. Catlin and.other collectors. Out et
doors, the new railway is far advanced, and is ads.

park to cross Clapham-common, and es so be *a
wood, the shares of which are stated to be sire*
at a premium, and which, while giving accessibility
to the West-end visitors, will doubtless absorb
liege amount of intermediate traffic, and thus mate-
rially serve the populous suburban districts through
which it is intended to pass. Looking at all these
simultaneous symptoms of progress, there is little
doubt but that " The Peoples Palace at Sydenham "
will be duly inangtusted according to promise, on
