TILE TRIANGULAR SURVEY OF THE METROPOLIS
AND ENVIRONS.—About half-past four o'clock yesterday
afternoon, the inhabitants of the metropolis who could
command a view of the cross of St. Paul's beheld an in-
cident which has occurred but once before since the ca-
thedral of the metropolis has been built—that when the
last plank or pole of a scaffold, or the coping brick or
stone of a building has been fixed, the waving of a
handkerchief to show to those below that the project has
been accomplished. During the past three weeks the
public has been aware that one of the sergeants, two
corporals, and eight labourers, belonging to the Sap-
pers and Miners, have been daily engaged in erecting,
from what is termed the Golden Gallery, a scaffold, the
platform of which, it was understood, was to rest on the
top of the cross. In the course of the progress of the
scaffold, the utmost astonishment has beau exhibited iu
seeing the men engaged in such a hazardous
work, clinging round the scaffolding poles tying
the bracenners, supporters, &cc., and even in that
perilous position sawing of the end of a small pole, at
the same time raising a scaffold something like a
spider's web. Without entering into a detailed account
of the building of a scaffold which has elicited the admi-
ration of all practical men, at the above hour the last
plank, forming the flooring on which the observatory for
the survey is to be built was fixed, amidst the huzzas of
the few employed; around this a strong railing, about
five feet high, is fixed—the area being, from point to
point, about 14 feet, in the centre of which is to be
raised the shed or building from which the survey is to
be made. In the recollection of a comparative few it
will be remembered that in the year 1825 a scaffold was
raised for the purpose of regilding the ball and cross,
and on that occasion Mr. liorner—who subsequently
made a bird's-eye view of London, which was afterwards
exhibited—very narrowly escaped with his life, as
during the early part of his aerial habitation, his resi-
dence was blown over, and the next morning he was
found by the workmen in a most prostrate position. On
the same occasion a plank was blown into Poynter's-
alley, which broke 0n44 of the large paving-stones, and
penetrated some six or eight inches deep in the earth.
As the present survey is to be a complete one, the scaf-
fold is so bound together, that it will be perfect for the
next seven years, without wanting repairs.
EFFECT OF CHARTIST DEMONSTRATIONS.—A cor-
respondent states the following as an instance of the
effect which the present disturbed state of Europe has on
trade:—He had a ship at one of the ports of Porto Rico
waiting to take cargo under regular charter, and in con-
sequence of the news arriving of the general disturbed
state of Europe, and of the intended Chartist meeting
on Kenniugton-common, the merchants refused to load
the ship, and in this case the owners of the vessel sus-
tain a very considerable loss. Several other shipf, were
in port at the same time, anti also lost their earspes.--
