WHISPERING IN ST. PAllt's.—At last weelefi
ordinary meeting of the Royal Institute of Architects, Mr.
Parris, who renovated the painting in the dcme of St Paul's,
said he had remarked from his experience of that Cathedral,
that he could be heard distinctly at the distance of 220 feet,
when he was immediately muter the eye of the dome. Any
person standing on a particalar part of the pavement below,
at a right angle, or nearly at a right angle from where his
voice would strike the r oof, could hear even a whisper
with the greatest distinc/oness ; in fact, he had often held con-
versations in that way. He believed Mr. Penrose had like-
wise tried the experiment. As he moved to a different part
of the dome, the person below would have to move to a dif-
ferent position, but in the same angle; when this became too
great the voice was lost. He had offdn tried the experi-
ment, and found that the reverberationi- in the dome were
always repeated 32 times, exactly correaponding with the
points of the compass. It was the same at the Colosseum
(London), where he had tried it with the flute, voice, and
every means. He had tried experiments in the- same way
in St. Paul's, upon the level of the organ, and above and
beneath it, and he found• invariably that: d.
the• sound was
always best heard at the point opposite to where the voice
had struck. It was precisely the same with the voice
ascending and descending ; in fact, his attention had been
called to the matter by' hearing a man below ask another
for a sixpence; he exclaimed, "Take care, he is giving you
a bad one ;" and the man immediately turned round,
surprised as to where the voice could be coming from.—
Buzlder.
