London, England, 1856-10-07 00:00:00

The architects of all nations arc invited to com-
pete foe. a work of as great importance and as great
difficulty as ever fell within their province. At
last, after enduring every inconvenience and in-
currireg the utmost ridicule, the British Govern-
ment -has been forced and ashamed into seeking
what may be called a new habitation. It is ot no
use to run for peraliels to any actual amount ot
private absurdity in order to do full justice to the
condition of our present public Government °lncise .
We should have to suppose something quite out. of
the way, for the fact surpasses all fiction, Dr
twenty principal and subordinate departments not
one has the least pretensions to an office adequate
either in scale or in arrangement. There is not one
official residence that can be called either -dignified
or cosafortable, not one suite of rooms capacielse
enou eh for an ordinary reception. In the prise&
pal suite props
are necessary to prevent a was,
troplse as fatal as that planned by Guy leasyk„.
What foreigners might suppose to be the meet ja..„
port; nt office in our Government, as the centre of
our naval power, is divided into two heaves three-
quarters of a mile apart, one of them_ being only a
small section of a building, evhicki it shares with
other occupants. The Government of India is in a
back lane, not unfrequently under water. The
other offices are scattered here, there, and every-
where. Intelligent Londoners of thirty years' ex-
perience in the ways of the metropolis would be
puzzled to point them all out on the map. Some
departments rent houses, a single house, or two
together ; and others are so fortunate as to possess
the freehold of residences that still are but indif-
ferent private houses. The rents of who'© streets
have risen because Government was hiring house
after house for its oen uses. The Ordnance-office
has lately encroached on the neighbouring linen-
draper; the Treasury has an appendage over
the way in Gwydyr-house ; the Records are, or
were till lately, some in a chapter-house, some
in a stable, and some over a magazine of gun-
powder. Meanwhile, we have gone on patching
and piecing, adding a storey or afront, as husiness
increased or self-respect might require. The Trea-
sury has been.once raised and twice fronted within
the present generation. The very sanctum sane-
tcrum of the British Executive is a so-called street,
hut really a small court of houses of the class
usually devoted to lodgers, and from time imme.
enorial with a large acre of rubbish before it.
Meanwhile we aro consolidating offices, increasing
business, multiplying clerks, accumulating papers
—crowding, in fact, every room, every passage,
and every shelf. At last there is no choice left ;
we must find more accommodation, and do it on a
anewhat better system than we have done before.
It is not to be supposed, however, that what has
always been difficult when taken piecemeal should
be otherwise than difficult when taken altogether.
In fact, a new constitution for this country would
be hardly a more serious undertaking than a new
set of public offices.
The first object proposed for the competition of
the architectural world is vast, and, we must add,
rather indeterminate. It is the concentration of
the principal Government offices on a site lying
between Whitehall and the New Palace of West-
minster. The site itself is more accurately defined
in the plans which accompany this invitation by
a red line, which includes the Home-office, passes
along the boundary ot St. James's Park to Storey's-
gate, along the north side of Great George-street,
includes both sides of Bridge street, a large pro-
posed embankment of the Thames, passes along
the south wall of Richmond-mews, and crosses
Parliament-street, the whole of which it includes,
excepting only the end of Richmond-terrace. Thus
it appears that the whole of the large square
bounded by Downing-street on the north, Great
George-street on the south, St. James's Park on
the west, and Parliament-street on the east, is
doomed to destruction. So also is the rectangular
space between Parliament-street, Palace-yard, the
Thames, and Richmond-mews. The area is im-
mense, and the cost of buying up the houses,
indifferent as they are, will be considerable. For
our part, however, we should have been disposed to
go further. Why not take the whole area compre-
hended in the magnificent design of Inigo Jones ?
At this moment the purchase of the eight houses
in Richmond-terrace, of Montagu-house, and of
the three mansions in Whitehall-gardens—viz. the
Marquis of Ailsa's, the Duke of Northumberland's
and Sir R. Peel's—is a mere question of move:,
there being no public sentiment, and to the besk
of our belief, no personal feeling likely to be
offended by the purchase. With these residences
Government would be able to acquire more than
half as much area from the Thames. Again, after
all the talk there has been about throwing open the
Abbey, and after the desire so generally expressed
to clear the neighbourhood of the public offices and
of the Houses of Parliament from the presence of
inferior buildings, no plan will be satisfactory
which stops short at Great George-street, and does
not go right down to the Abbey. This would in-
volve Westminster Hospital, the Sessions-house,
and the new Stationery-office ; but, apart from the
question of money, these buildings have Do claiin
to preservation ; and the question of money is only
a .question of time. The work is to be spread over
a series of years, only it is desirable to know at
once all that is to be done.
We shall be charged, perhaps, with extending a
scheme already expansive and indeterminate
enough ; but the terms of the invitation are far
More comprehensive and vague. Indeed, the y
amount to a rearrangement of the whole of that part
of the metropolis on both sides of the Thames, and
up and down ever so far. "The design is also to
represent any improvements which the author may
suggest in the principal approaches to the New
Palace of Westminster, as well as in the com-
munications with the Surrey side of the
river Thames, especially with reference to the
situation of the now Weetneinster-briege, the ulti-
mate position of which must be considered in con-
nexion with this design." We beg to submit that,
in mere compassion to the foreign architects who
may be tempted to spend their time till next E ister
in arranging our 20 Government offices on the
350,000 superficial square feet surrounded by the
rod line, that some better instructions ought to he
g'ven as to the much larger objects also in con-
templation. When the foreign architect has been
slavishly adjusting his desieri to the immediate
neighbourhood be may possibly find, to his disgust,
that the prize has been carried off by an English-
man who has included Charing-cross, Scotland-
yard, Abingdon-street, both banks of the Tim-nos
from Hungerford-bridge to Horseferry-road, and
au immense portion ot Lembeth, in his plan. He
may find twat in order to make his design agree-
able at head-quarters he ought to have swept
a'way.
Westminster-bridge altogether, and thrown another
across the Thawed in a straight line from Charing-
cross, and another opposite Lambeth Church. He
may find that, little as he knew it, he was at liberty
to encroach as much as he pleased on St. James's-
park, to surround the abbey and its college with a
green field, to transplant St. Margaret's Church to
the entrance of Victoria-street, and, in a word, to
make any suggestion, recommended by itsgrandeur
or its convenience. British architects, or perhap we should say, one or two favoured British arclii:
teeth, may know how far they may safely go; but
foreign architects will be apt to know nothing but
what they read in the terms of the invitation and
what they see in the plans. They ought, we humely
suggest, to be more largely or more exactly in-
formed.
Three designs are invited ; the first we have
described, the second and third are respectivel
for a Foreign-office and a War-office,
both tyo be included in the rectangular space between
Downing-street and Charles-street, the block
of buildings between King-street and Parliament-
street being marked for destruction. A paragraph
in our columns has already stated the immense size
of the
buildings wanted and their various require-
mews. They are to to commenced as scion as pes.
sible on ground now occupied by streets of a le,
class, and without interfering with public Cuiinees.
When they are finished'it will only remain to re
move into them the sinif and the materiel of the
two depart meals. The Foreign office is to feet: Se
lay
8-park, and the War office to occupy the lees
eligible Position in the noisy thoroughfare. The
seecitications are sufficiently exact as to the purpose,
number size, and distribution of the rooms. Per-
haps, numb©,
some hint might have been given as
to the style--w
lien of the Treasury front,
hether it is to follow the florid Ita-
or some .other of the
numerous and discordant examples in the neigh-
bonrhood. Again,
are the two offices to bear any
resemblance to one
another Beyond the areas of
the rooms, which are given the architect is left to
make out by a difficult calesil in what ratio the
two offices are to .dividethe ag." rectangle ; and,
it is quit'© possible that the tvrXiscful designs, '`
by different hands, may not exactly fit the spa e.
It is very desirable that every doubt should be re-
moved, and that all the compelhere should 4t:lrt
perfectly fair. There are but twe many •t, of

Thus far there is DO sign. of favouri ism;
ands on the
wise principle nimium ye crede colori, no ornamen_
tal drawings are to be allowed—only models
on
the same scale as the plans. This looks like justice,
But justice itself, in its sternest moods, le Often
defeated, and in no trials so much as in those of
architecture. Se, without meaning any offence, we
only entreat that there may be no mistake as to the
nature of the designs allowed to come into competi-

(From the Times.)
A- statement signed by 38 prisoners at. Cayenne,
31 of whom are political ones, recently appeared
in our columns. A tardy reply to this document
was published a day or two ago in the. Moniteur,
and now M. Louis Blanc has sent us a rejoinder.
In their statement the prisoners describe themselves
as undergoing sufferings which the world at large
would certainly think out of proportion for political
offences. We need not dwell upon the picture.
Everybody knows what Cayenne is—that its equi-
torial latitude and rank vegetation combined give
it a climate specially noxious to European consti-
tutions. In this climate political prisoners ofFrance
describe themselves as "compelled to labour eight
hours a-day in marshy forests, from which pestilen-
tial vapours are continually rising ;" they add that
they have had " no proper food, no garments, no
shoes, no wine since February last ;" and that in
this lack of wholesome food their animal strength
is gradually sinking under the pressure of the toil
and the climate.
Now, we must profess small political sympathy
with the general class of French political prisoners
or refugees. They aro confessors for a cause with
which we cannot agree ; they are violent, head-
strong men—theorists who haveadepted an irnprs e-
tailcitaiblrvehostandard of human rights and social equity,
would upset the whole existing frame-
work of society in the wild attempt to put it in
force. The Government of Louis Napoleon repre
sents, as against such men, the simple principle of
smoecniatlforordmeroaWyeennhe navoyelgiven publicity to the state-
upon that maxim of com-
mon fairness and humanity on which we should act
in any other case--that complainants who formally
state their case have a right to a "leaflet,' Bat,
small as our political sympathy with such nen is,
we cannot but remind L suis Napoleon that, consi-
dering the particular line which he is taking on European questions thi now
, s is ilot
a case which he can altogether overlook. He
is now formally engaged, in junction Ilia'
our own Government, in au attempt to induce the
King of Naples to treat his subjects with jestiee
and political otfoiders with humanity. He is inter-
fering in the internal affairs of Naples, with a view
of changing the grinding and tyrannising policy of
that Government, and bringing in a more liberal
and indulgent :system, especially as relates to the
persons and parties suspected of political disaffec-
tion and of aspirations after freedom. But, such
being the case, he must be prepared to hear people
saying that those who live in glass houses should
not throw stones, and must not take it amiss if,
when a distinct charge of inhumanity in the treat-
ment of political offenders is brought against his
Government, people are waiting either for a denial
of the fact from him, or for an alteration of the sys-
tem. It is very possible that things may not be
quite at Cayenne as these men state. It is also pos-
sible that, even if they are so, the fault may hitherto
have been one of oversight on the part of the
French Government rather than of intentional and
deliberate harshness. The state of things is a dis-
tant penal settlement may perhaps be somewhat
slow in reaching head-quarters, and a regimen of
severity which had at its beginning the excuse of a
i real or an apparent necessity for in terrorem pur-
poses, or which, at any rate, represented a critical
and exciting juncture when asperity was not un-
natural, may have been continued in simple care-
lessness and forgetfulness. But, whichever of these
two be the explanation of the Cayenne statement,
this statement ought to be met, and met in a more
open and decisive way than it is iu the rep), in the
.3.loniteur which is ambiguous and obscure, half
denying siel half admitting the facts of the etatc-
meta. We have every respect for Louis Napo-

is working to death at Cayenne—if this statement
be true—may be dangerous and mammal le wen :
still they are visionaries and enthusiasts rather-
than criminals, and it must be admitted that the

a new and at the time an usurping one. They are

BALLINASLOE FAIR.
The total number of sheep sold. on Saturday, the first
and principal day of the fair, was, according to the re-
turn at the custom gap, 70,341, or about 10,000 more
than on the first day last year. There was a consider-
able decline in the prices at 9 or 10 o'clock from those
obtained about two hours earlier. The increase in prices
over last year is attributable in a great measure to the
improved condition of the sheep.
SUNDAY, Oct. s.—During the confusion attendant on
getting off the sheep from the fair-green yesterday after-
noon, a man named William Carroll received a violent
blow on the head from a shepherd's craok. He was re-
moved to the police barracks, where every assistance
was rendersl by Dr. Burke, but the matter assumed a
serious aspect about 6 o'clock, and he died at 11 o'clock
p.m. It it not known whether the blow was given
accidentally or wilfully. The inquest will be held
rrow (Won -a:).
SUNDAY, 4 P m —Up to this hour the arrivals of horses
for tn-morrow's fair are .both numerous and apparently
of a first-rate description. Sellers and buyers continue
to roll in, and it is expected that the show of bents and
business will be touch bettor lbws last year, should the
weather continue propitious.

" I believe with you, the British public, although
liable to deception, in the end judges a just judgment of
the merits of her servants, and I wiil conclude with one
more short extract from the same article in the Times
newspaper of Sept. 4, That no such oratory as has been
lately listened to should be allowed to blind the public
to facts which less partial communities daily comment
on. While in the eyes of both allies and enemies our
ar.ny was reduced to a contingent by the incapacity of
its chiefs, no provincial speeches at home can peinia-
nently rase the character of the men who thus worked
its ruin, and lowered the national fame.'—l have the

ART MANUFACTURE EXHIBITION IN

EDINBURGII.

An exhibition will be opened within the National
Gallery, Edinburgh, about the middle of December,
by the Art Manufacture Association—an association
just established in Scotland, under the presidency of
the Duke of Hamilton, for the purpose of encou-
raging the application of art to objects of utility
and ornament. The association has in view to diffuse a
general taste for household art, and to encourage the
artist manufacturer to meet the popular demand it seeks
to create. The society is likewise an art union, and at
its annual exhibitions purchases will be made of works
of art and Inef.t, which will be balloted for among the
subscribers, who pay one guinea each. It is also intended
that each subscriber shall obtain a prize, and in the diver-
sity of objects to he soh cted the objection to other art
unions, in distributing the same works to all, will be
obviated. The association "look especially to the encou-
ragement of design and perfection of execution, as applied
to bronzes, carvings in wood, metal or ivory, to porcelain,
glass, textile fabrics, and other materials susceptible of
receiving the aid of high art in their productions." All
the,e brarichea of art manufacture will be represented in
the exhibition. While the East India Company
and others are to display the productions of foreign
and colonial art the exhibition will chiefly illustrate the
art manufactures of the united kingdom. A large col-
lection of jewellery will be shown by the chief London
house., including Messrs. Hunt and Itoskell, Messrs.
Phil;ps Brothers, &c. The porcelain, china, and the
finer productions of the Potteries will be exhibited by
Messrs. Minton and Co., &e. Toe electro.eype, electro-
plate, and bronze manufactures of Birmingham will con-

fabrics, and cabinet work and other household decora-
tion.

WIIAT IS TO BECOME OF ENGLAND?

This is a question very generally asked on the Conti
nent, and which even in England cannot but agitate
many a heart. But apart from either the speculations of
rivalry for the apprehensions of pa,trrotisur, there is a
third class of observers with whom the question is of
still higher and more universal interest. With every one
(too few, alas, in number) who still professes any respect
for the liberties of mankind and the dignity of human
nature, there cannot be a subject of more anxious, more
vital solicitude, than the futurefalo of England, hitherto
the greatest example and guarantee of both. We cannot
conceal front ourselves that there prevails at this mo-
ment in the world a general opinion unfavourable to the
security of this great nation, to the duration of her glo-
rious institutions, and even to the soundness of her po/i-
-tical morality. The unbounded confidence, the legitimate
envy, the passionate admiration which she had inspired
for more than a century to all enlightened and generous
minds, have imperceptibly made room for very different
sentiments. While the ancient and faithful partisans of
England, and of all that she represents in the world, seem
less at their ease, here inveterate adversaries, increased
and encouraged by the accidents of the time, are an-
nouncing her decline and anticipating her fall. In this
point, as indeed everywhere else, the partisans of de•
spotism and the zealots of democracy have a secret and
instinctive alliance; they concur in the same wishes,
and would applaud the same catastrophe. Neither can
forgive England fur having been so long an insurmount-
able bulwark against both these extrernece her monar-
chy, powerful and limited, has been too practical a con-
tradiction to the Mee logic, the false theories, .rtrl the
passionate ambition of the absolo.tists. Her ever-in-
creasing strength, her unbounded and unabused liberty,
and her unchecked and unrivalled prosperity, supply the
most conclusive arguments, as well as the most effectual
resistance, to the savage equality of Socialism on the one I
hand, and on the other to that clumsy despotism which
has no other expedient for preserving a people from
anarchy and terror than the depriving thorn of their
liberties and their rights. Both these parties unite in I
envying her the glory of offering to surrounding nations
her example as a refuge against either of their shameful

blishment. One of the first stories told of 'the young
Princess is the circumstance of bee having- taken the
crucifix belonging to the altar of the Infirmary to stir
the embers on the hearth ; and when reprov ed for such
levity and impiety by the sick girl whom sb e bad been
appointed to watch, she had seized the smow2dering
mains of 'the holy emblem, and lighting em at the
flame shefhad kindled in 'the chimney, made what the
children ,denominate a ruban de feu, by awil 'ging the
crucifix above her head, and causing the spar 'cs to fly
thence in all directions, while she laughed ht artily to
behold the terror of the per sick girl hiding her head
beneath the bed-clothes, and muttering her pat ernosters
while she lay trembling from head to foot. The attack
and parry once begun, we scarcely know where the
affair will end. The Prince de S., who affects' to treat
the whole affair as a oelusion of benighted superstition,
threatens, nevertheless, to screen his departed wife from
the evil tongues of gossips and scandal-rnongars, and
from any report of the kind which shall be uttered con-
cerning her. The controversy, as you may suppose, has
aroused the prophets of the new faith in magicand divinas
tion, who, during the last winter, managed to asoemble
amongst their disciples almost the whole of that extraordi.
nary milieu of philosophy and genius with which P.sris is
so:full. Eliphas Levi and his sect, with M. Maldigny and
others, have all been aroused by the incident; while M.
de Mircourt, whose firm belief in the physical influence of
evil spirits has brought him so often before the public,
promises us a treatise on the subject in .next month's Revue.
It is evident neither the doctrine of Urhain Grandier, nor
the malignity of Laubardemont, is dead amongz.t us ;and
the world may yet be gratified by the spectacle of a trial
and condemnation for the abetting of witchceaft, and the
holy superior may be brought to the stake for not having
given up the young. Princess Eleanore to the authorities
of the Church, in order that the refractory young Chrie.
tiara might have undergone the usual forms and exorcism
by the Bishop of Bayeux, who it seems has a peculiar
knack at this art, and practises it frequently.
