-e•ha soil, or be convey

,e,to a spot from which no authority had power to 'remove it.
The purchasers of the building did not hesitate for a moment in step-
Ping in eetweeo• the public and the" Legislative sentence : they knew
Itill Well that the Governments of other countries deem it their duty
therovide for, and carefully to watch over, the national character of
. masses respectively given to their charge, by affording the
Means of recreation and instruction during their holiday and leisure
hears. But here the wise and good amongst us must do these things
*themselves, for British Governments revolve in fixed political
orbits, and the people shrink from official interference in their per-
Bonet, social, and domestic movemente.
• Two great facts were established by the National Exhibition of
1851 In the first place, it proved not only a self-Supporting, but a
highly remunerative institution; and, - secondly, visitors, at thb
'''gher rates of charge, neither entered the building in numbers equal
to those on the shilling days, nor eontributea in money a sum equi-
valent to that realised by the shillings of the poorer classes. From
these two facts, it became evident to the purchasers that two points
Matray demanded their attention in deciding upon the fate of the
Istraetire which they had saved from demolition. To begin, they,
oast fix upon a spot for the Palace, easy of access 16 the masses ;
and, ir. the second place, they Must render the Palace in respect of
the people of Lon don what Versedlles is to Paris—a place where the
people may be admitted by thousands to all the enjoyments of art, of
• science, of beauty, of skill, and of mechanical invention—enjoyments

both respects the purchasers have to congratulate themselves
Pon having met with unexpected and abundant success.
A site close to Landau, but out of reach of its smoke and brick
balls—beautiful, picturesque, and open—has been secured on the
Istigliton Railway. 'The Palace once built trieon it, will have a rail-
Way station within the building itsele, communicating by an excite-
", ane of rail with the. Londembridge end Bricklayers' Arms
Stations, which are the most readily aecessibletto the densest por-
tion of the LondOn population, and from which the Crystal Palace
also will will be reached by special trains in ten minutes. A line is
