In the great increase made by the metropolis of late years,
the residential and domestic wants of a large class of the
community have been overlooked. Whilst aristocratic clubs
have multiplied, and model lodging-houses for the working
classes have been erected in different localities, the conve-
nience of the middle claases, in this respect, has been wholly
forgotten ; and it is the object of the Council of the Residm-
tial Clubs Company to supply that desideratum by the erec-
tion of suitable buildings, combining comfort with economy.
On this subject the leading article in the "Times" of the
28th April observes :
" Clubs are one of the most remarkable and beneficial pro-
ducts of modern civil cation, and their alvant ages are not
nearly developed. Among the upper classes they exercise
the same control over the condu t and deportment of men as
general society exercises over the conduct of women. A
man with black mark upon his character has no chance of
getting into a respectable club ; a man who does a dis-
honourable act is expelled from his club. The clubs, with
their ballots, their committees, and their power of expulsion,
keep up the tone of manners in this country. They are
courts of honour as well as large families of equals. We
should like to see associations exercising a like influence
among the middle classes and among the workmen. We
should like to see them a test of character as well as a means
of comfort to the humble, as they are to the wealthy."
The objcct of the Residential Clubs Company is to provide
bachelors of limited income with gentlemanlike abodes, in
the metronolis and suburbs, embracing moat of the advan-
tages of the principal club-houses, thus combining style,
comfort, society, and amusements with economy. At present,
the cheerl ssness of hired lodgings, and the want of society,
to') often induce the desire to seek amusement at question-
able places of public resort.
MODE OF OPERATION.
it is proposed to purchase or take upon leases sufficient
ground in London and the suburbs, easy of access by rail and
road, and thereupon to erect commodious and substantial
edifices, each bull tng to contain a sufficient number of cham-
bers (all having fire-places), club, dining, reception, and read-
ing rooms, kite ens, baths, and other conveniences ; the whole
to be completely and appropriately furnished, including
plate, linen, and all requisites for domestic use.
The Suburban Residential Clubs will be surroundel by
gardens, cricket and archery grounds, &c. A sufficient staff
of domestic servants wilt be provided, suitably attired.
The rent of the chambers will vary from 30 to 50 guineas
per annum.

A fixed moderate tariff will be published, and a table
d'hOte served at separate tours, thus will the members have
entire control over their daily expenditure.
The reading room will be supplied with writing materials
and copies of the principal London journals, reviews, and
other periodicals.
A laundry will t e established upon an economical footing,
and thus enable the members to have their washing performed
at a lower rate than they otherwise could do.
The Council will be invested with power to make and
