fort has prevailesl to a great extent, while
THE GRAND SUITE OF RECEIVING ROOMS

demonstrate the capability of having Soirees on a scale not to be
exceeded in this fashionable part of the town. The Salle I Manger
is worthy of an Ambassador, and the domestic arrangement is
throughout so very perfect as to leave nothing to be desired.
TliE EXTENSIVE GARDENS
give it a feature somewhat novel, when it is remembered that it is
found in the very heart of the Metropolis. The Stabling and Coach-
houses, on as extended scale, and approaching Bond-street, form an
auxiliary of considerable import ; and to those who have no anti-
pathy to increase their ways and means in the shape of income, a
plan has been suggested to divide this splendid Mansion and its
Grounds, se as to render it a speculation free from doubt or un-
certainty.
It can be viewed until the Sale. Particulars had 21 days ante-
cedently of Messrs. Oldie, Forster, and Lumley, Carey-street;
