ROTTEN Row, as The " Sight of Sights" in all
London.—From early morn till dewy eve the Row
has a certain complement of visitors, for during certain
hours of the day it is most thronged, and its frequenters feel
it de rigueur to be seen there. These hours used to be in
the evening, an anteprandial promenade from half-past five
until seven, but some of the leaders of fashion felt that these
hours were not sufficiently exclusive—that people from the
City, horrible vulgarians engaged in the debasing pursuits
of commerce, law, literature, or even trade, might come be-
tween the wind and their nobility, enjoying themselves after
the day's labours were at end. This was too terrific, and
must at once be rectified ; so the exclusives changed the
fashionable time to the two hours preceding lunch, between 12
and two, when all the low persons engaged in getting,their
daily bread would be confined to their counting-lipuses,
law courts, chambers, desks, or counters, as the case might
be; and this rule still continues. So thoroughly has it
carried its intention that all the visitors at the " swell time"
might now be denizens of the Castle of Indolence. They
