THE " CRYSTAL PALACE."

saved in expense 1,400/. The length of each of the bars
of the conservatory is 48 inches, only one inch shorter
than those of the Exhibition building. The glass and
glazing of the Chatsworth conservatory caused me con-
siderable thought and anxiety, as I was very desirous to
do away altogether with the numerous overlaps con-
nected with the old system of glazing with short lengths.
This old method, even under the best of management, is
crtain in the course of a f,sv years to render unsightly
any structure, however well built. In the course of my
inquiries I hard that Messrs. Chance and Co., of Bit.-
rniogham, had just introduced from the continent the
m.inufayture of sheet-glass. Accordingly, I went to see
them make this new article, and found they were able to
manufacture it three f et in length. I was advised to
use this glass in two lengths with one overlap, but to
this I could not assen,, as I observed that since they had
so far advanced as to be able to produce sheets three feet
in len,,th, I saw no reason why they could not aecom-
elish another foot, anti it this could not be done I would
decline giving the order, as at that time sheet-glass was
altogether an experiment for horticultural purposes.
Those gentlemen, however, shortly afterwards informed
m- that they had one person who could make it the desired
length, and, if I would give the ord,r, they would fur-
nish roe with all that I required. It may just be remarked
here, that the glass for the Exhibition . building is
49 inches long—a size which no country except England
is able to furnish in any large quantity even at the pre-
sent day. In 1840 the Chatsworth Conservatory was
complete.] and planted. The whole length of the build-
ing is 277 feet, its breadth 123 feet over the walls, and

SOCIETY OF ARTS.—EXHIBITION OF 1851.
Last night the Society of Arts held their first erdi-
nary meeting for the season, in the society's house, 18,
John-street, Adelphi ; Lord Overstone in the chair.
There was a very strong attendance of members and
visitors, including several ladies, the large hell being
filed to oveitioeing. The principal business of the even-
ing was the reading of a piper by M. Paxton, on the
origin and details of construction of the buillitig for the
Exhibition of 1851. Around the wells of the room were
„espenaed numerous drawings illustrative of the subject
of the lecture, against eesch of which a strong light was
ifirecied as it was referred to in the course of tee lecture.
It wee also intimated that for the benefit of those who
desired to inspect the drawings more minutely, they
would he allowed to remain iu the room till Fridsy
evening next.
Mr. PAXTON (who, we may state one for all, was
frequently cheered in the course of his statement) rose
and said—Before I read the paper which I am arena to
submit to you, I may be permitted to say a few words
with regard to myself. Although I have written a great
this will be the first
edelts'assure you I ehould not

have done so now but for the solicitations of the council
of this society. When I first brought the design for this
building to London, about the middle of the past sum-
mer, the council of this society kindly offered me the
use of this room in order that a lecture might be
delivered on_ the advantages of my plan, and the
matter went so far that a night was named for the
purpose. I did not intend on that occasion to say
anything myself, for I had too many engagements then
on hand to permit my doing so, but proposed to transfer
the duty to the hands of others, who wonlrisave dis-
charged it far better than I could have done. Bat in
the progress of events it was thought desirable to post-
pone the lecture until the latter end of the year, and now,
t the request of the society. I have consented to write a
paper and read it myself. The great industrial building
now in the course of erection, and which forms the sub-
ject of the present paper, was not the production of a
momentary consideration of the subject. Its peculiar
construction in cast-iron and glass, together with the
manner of forming the vast roof, is the result of much
experience in the erection of buildings of a similar kind,
although on a smaller scale, which has gradually deve-
loped itself through a series of years. In giving, there-
fore, a description of the building itself, it may not he
uninteresting to give a brief account of the reasons
'which led me to investigate the subject of glass roofs
and glass structures generally, and which have resulted
in the Exhibition building. In 1828, when I first turned
my attention to the building and improvement of glass
structures, the various forcing-houses at Chatsworth, as
at other places, were formed of coarse thick glass and
heavy woodwork, which rendered the roofs dark and
gloomy, and on this account very ill suited for the per.
poses they were intended to answer. My first object
was to remove this evil; and in order to accomplish it, I
lightened the rafters and sashbars, by bevilling off their
sides, and some houses which were afterwards built
in this manner proved very satisfactory. I also at
this time contrived a light sashbar having a groove
for the reception of the glass; this grooVe com-
pletely obviated a disadvantage connected with the
cooldntimnuoadlelyofdigspialzircinegd, namely, the putty becoming
by the sun, frost, and rain
after the sashes had been made for a short time, and the
wet by this means finding its way betwixt the glass and
the wood, and producing a continual drip in rainy wea-
ther. About this period the desire for metallic roofs
began to extend in every direction, and, as such struc-
tures had a light and graceful appearance, it became a
question of importance as to the propriety of using metal
sashes and rafters, instead of wooden ones, for horticul-
tural purposes. After carefully observing the effects of
those built by various persons, it became apparent to me
that the expansion and contraction of metal would always
militate against its general adoption, as at no season of
the year could the sashes and ratters be made to fit. The
extra expense also of erecting metallic roofed houses was
a consideration. In 1833 I contemplated building a new
range of hothouses, and being desirous of knowing how
much they would cost if erected of metal, a plan of the
range was prepared and sent to Bit minghem, and another
to Sheffield, with a desire to be furnished with estimates
for that purpose. The estimate from Birmingham was
1.8004 and the other, from Sheffield, was 1,8501. These
appeared to me such enormous sums that I at once set
about calculating how much the range would cost if built
of wood under my own inspection; and the result was
that I was able to complete the whole range, including
masonry (which was omitted in the metal estimates), for
less than 5001. Besides the extra cost of metallic roofs
we must add the extreme heat of such houses in hot
weather, and tto ir coldness in times of frost, the liability
to breakage of glass from expansion and contraction
of the metal, the very limited duration of the smaller
portions, as sashbars, from corrosion, by exposure
to the alternations of heat, cold, and moisture, in-
separable from gardening operations. and which
could only be prevented by making use of the
expensfive material, copper; and the difficulT, when
compared with wood, of repairing any damages, as a
wooden roof could at any time be set to rights by a com-
monu,iud curt,: pule natueyr.

vantages soon became generally rpnarene. It was now
thought advisable by some persons, that in order to ob-
viate the many disadvantages in the use of metal, the
ratters and framework of the sashes ought to be made of
wow', end the sashbars of metal. The plan certainly
structuresngruous could er

these
in co

give satisfaction; and accordingly, in a few years, as I
hqauditebv
anticipated,
subsided, and the use of wood again became re-
sorted to by most persons as the best material for
horticultural purposes. In the construction of glass
houses requiring much light there always appearedgass
to me one impertent objection, which no person
seemed to have taken up or obviated. I
w.
this:—ln plain lean-to, or shed roofs the morningt .
evening sun, which is on many accounts of the and
importance to forcing fruits, presented its direct rays at
a low angle, and consequently very ll übliq ly t. the
glass. At those periods most of the rays obliquely
light and
heat were obstructed by the position of the glass and
heavy rafters, so that a considerable portion of time was
lost both morning and evening; it consequently became
evident that a system by which the glass would be •
at right angles to the morning and evening* ofn there
rays
sun would obviate the difficulty and remoyethe
ob-
struction to rays of light entering the house at an early
and late hoar of the day. This led me to the adop-
tion
of the ridge and furrow principle for glass
roofs, which places the glass in such a posi-
tion that the rays of light in the mornings and
evenings enter the house without obstruction and pre-
sent themselves more perpendicularly to the glass at
those times when they are the least powerful: whereas,
at midday, when they are most powerful they present
themselves more obliquely to the glass. Having had
this principle fully fixed in my mind, and being con-
vinced of its importance, I constructed a piuehouee in
1833 as an experiment, which still exists ucimpaired,
and has been found fully to answer the purpose. In
1834 I resolved to try a further experiment on a larger
scale, on the ridge and furrow principle, in the construe
lion of a greenhouse of considerable dimensions, which
also remains and answers admirably. Fer this building
I made a still lighter sashbar than any I had previously
used, on which account the house, when completed
(although possessing all the advantages of wood), was
as light as if constructed of
al"tal. The whole length
of this structure is 97f feet, and its breadth 26 feet; the
height at the back is 16 feet 9 inches, and in the front
12 feet three inches. A span so large as 26 feet could not
be safely covered with a roof constructed in the ordinary
way, unless the sashbars were stronger, and the assist.
attee of heavy rafters and numerous supporters were af-
forded. Tne house presents a neat and light appearance,
and consists of 15 bays, and pediments in front, sup-
ported by 16 slender reeded cast-iron columns. While
it make an admirable greenhouse, it is also an econo-
mical buildine, for at the period of its construction, not-
withstanding the heavy tax on glass (since removed), it
only cost at the rate of 2d. and a fraction per cubic toot.
At the present time, considering the change in the price
of material and the removal of the glass-tax, it could be
constructed at a considerably smaller amount. Having in
contemplation the erection of the great censervatory in its,
present form, it was determined in 1836 to erect a new
curvilinear hothouse, 60 feet in length and 26 feet in
width, with the elliptical roof on the ridge and furrow
principle, to be constructed eutirely of wood, for the
purpose of exhibiting how roofs of this kind could be
supported. The plan adopted watt this—the curved raf-
ters were composed of several boards securely nailed to-
gether on templets of wood cut to the exact icurve; by
this means a strength and firmness was obtained suffi-
cient to support an enormous wskht. This house was
subsequently fitted up for the Victoria Regis, and it
was here I invented a waterwheel to give motion to the
water in which the plant growl and here this singularly
beautiful aquatic flowered fir the first time in this
country on November 9, 1849. (Mr. Paxton here ex-
hibited one of the large umbrella shaped leaves of the
Victoria Regia lily, which excited much interest, and
continued:—) You will observe that nature was the
engineer in this case. If you examine this, and compare
it with the drawings and models, you will perceive that
nature has provided it with longitudinal and transverse
girders and supporters, on the same principle that I,
tv.rrowing from it, have adopted in this building, in
1837 the foundations of the great conservatory Were
commenced, and in constructing so great a building
it was found desirable to contrive serve moans f
abridging the great amount of manual labour that
would be required in making the immense number c,f•
sashbars requisite for the purpose. Accordingly I
visited all the great workshop% in London. Nlaeches-
ter, and Birmingham, to e 0 if anything had been
invented that would afford the facilities I required.
The only apparatus met with was a grooving ma-
chine, which I had at once connected with a steam-
engine at Chatsworth, and which was subsequently
improved as to make the sashbar complete. For this
apparatus the Society of Arts, in April, 1841, awarded
me a medal, and this machine is the type from which all
the sashbar machines found in use throughout the
country at the present time is taken. As the conserva-
tory was erected under my own immediate superintend-
ence, I am able to speak accurately as to the advantages
of the machine; it has, in regard to the building alone,

he height from the floor to the highest part 67 feet.
Notwithstanding the success which attended the erection
of these buildings, it became to me a question of impor-
tance how far an extensive structure might be covered
in with flat ridge Enid furrow roofs; that is, the ridge
and valley rafters placed on a level instead of at an incli-
nation, as in the greenhouse, or curvilinear, as in the
great conservatory. I therefore prepared some 'plans
for an erection of the kind for the Earl of Burlington,
somewhere about ten years ago; but on account of the
lamentei death of the Countess the design of erection
was abandoned. However, from that time I felt assured
not only that it could be done satieltetorily, but that the
most appropriate manner to form and support level glass
roofs, to a great extent, was that adopted this year
for the new Victoria-house at Chatsworth, which may
be considered a miniature type of the Great Industrial
building. Bsfore describing this house, however, it may
be well to notice two instances in which the flat roofs
had been previously tried, and in both cases with the
most perfect success. (Here Mr. Paxton referred to the
erection of a conservatory attached to a villa in Darley
Dale, only a short distance from Chatsworth, and an
ornamental glass structure to cover the conservatory
wsll at Chatsworth.) He then continued:—The new
Victoria Regis-home, which presents a light and novel
appearance, is 60 feet 6 inches in length, and 46
feet 9 inches in breadth. Although, when compared
with the Great Industrial building, the Victoria-
house is a very diminutive structure, yet the principle on
which it is constructed is the same, and may be carried
out to an almost nidimited extent. The form of the roof
the general elevation, the supports, and the mode of con-
struction, are all quite simple, and yet fully answer the
purposes for which they were intended. The Victoria-
house, however, was so built as, to retain as much mois-
ture and heat as possible, and yet to afford a strong and
bright light at all seasons; whilst, on the contrary, the
Industrial building being intended to accommodate a
daily assemblage of many thousands of individuals, and
a vast number of natural and mechanical productions,
many of which would be destroyed by moisture and heat,
is constructed so as to fully answer that end. My rea-
sons for offering a design for this building were these:—
When plans for the structure were sent in by various
persons who answered the invitation of the Royal Com-
missioners, many forcible and cogent reasons were
urged and published in the daily papers against, the pro-
priety of erecting a large building of bricks and mortar
in Hyde park. It was not until this period that I turned
my attention to the matter, when I was at once con-
vinced that the least objectionable structure to occupy a
public park would be an erection of cast iron and glass;
whilst, at the same time, a building of this description
would be in every point of view the best adapted for the
purposes of the Exhibition. The time for receiving de-
signs had expired; but, from having the whole matter
already digested, and the system of ridge and furrow
flat roofs so fully impressed on my mind, it only re-
quired the adaptation of the principle on a large
scale to suit the vast building for the exhibition.
My plans were got up in about ten days, when
I had the satisfaction of their being ultimately ap-
proved of by the Commissioners. When I first
brought up my plans I submitted them to the Building
Committee, and then to the Royal Commissioners. Mr.
Scott Russell, who is now present, showed them to the
late lamented Sir R. Peel. lam very happy to have the
opportunity of saying that that gteat statesman ap-
proved very much of the general lectures of the build-
ing. He regretted that it was so late in being brought
forward; but of the breadth of eff,ct, and simplicity of
design, be entirely approved. The design for the
building involved variou4 considerations, and therefore
it was planned, first, with viniculsr consideration as to
its fitness for the object it, view--namely, the Exhibi•
tion of IS51; secondly, its suitableness for the site pro-
posed to be occupied by the structure; and, lastly, with
a view to its permanence as a winter garden, or vast
horticultural struc:ure, or a building which might, if re
quired, be again used at any future period for a similar
exhibition to that of 1851. One great feature in the

present building is, that not a vestige of either stone,
brick, or nyirtar is necessary to be used, but the whole is
composed of dry material, ready at once for the in'te.-
dection of articles for the exhibition. By no other
combination of materials but iron, and wood, and glass
could this important point be effected; and when we
consider the limited period allowed for the erection of so
stupendous a structure, the attainment of this all-im-
portant point has secured what may almost be deemed
the most important consideration. The abs-nco
mortar, plaster, or any moist material in the con-
struction, together with the provision made for the
vapours which will necessarily arise, and are condensed
against the glass, enables the exhibitor at once to plsce
his manufactures in their respective situations with-
out the probability of articles, even of polished ware,
being tarnished by their exposure. It may be important

the plans of the building, as exhibited upon the walls of
the room, showing tho original idea of the building and
the improved design as it now stands.) The height of
the centre aisle is 64 feet, the e. de aisles 44 feet, and the
outside aisles, or first story, 24 feet. The transept is
108 feet in height, and has been covered with a semi-
circular roof, like that of the great conservatory et

girders, with 1,128 intermediate bearers, for supporting
the floors of the galleries over the large openings of the
aisles. The girders are of wrought iron, and those for
the galleries arc of cast-iroe. The fronts of the galle-

It has b ett found by experience. that the total anneal lames of the
different Established Companies have not been proportionate to the
amount of annual Premiums received by each.
It is of the highest importance, both to the Insured and Insurers,
that such an anomaly should cease, and an avroximation to the
true risk b^ made. To secure this object the Equitable Fire Insu-
rance Company is established.
the true rate of Premann for Fire Insurance can only be ap-
proached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto
been sufficiently' acted • n. or systematically applied.
Whatever he the nominal rate. the bonus or return periodically to
the Insured will determine the tree Premium equitably payable, as
s-curity against loss for co great a calamity as lire, and the Insurer
Is largely int rested in this nuestion, and will consult his interest by
supporting a system where, by a careful combination of Classifica-
tion and ever •ee, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk.
The F.quitahle Fire Office will, Uy a constant anal' sic of its own
experience, from time to ti— e, Adopt such rates of Premium as the
nature of the risk may justify. and will decline to enter into arrange-
ments as regards tariff, 'mitts other offices.

With this view an annual in vestigalon will be made into each
class of risk, and a return of one moiety, or lifts* per cent. of the nett

been in fo"ce for three years.

ASSURANCE COMPANY,
4, NEW COVENTRY-STREET, LEICESTER-SQUARE, LONDON.
The FOURT,I ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of the Proprie-
tors of this Company took place on the 25th instant, at the Head
Office, at One o'cl,,ck precisely. The foll Owing is extracted from the
report. which is too lengthy f n• publication :
During the past year no claims have arisen from deaths in Englend.
end but two in Ireland—one for 500/. and the other for VlOL—making
together 7001.. which have been pail. This is far below the expected
mortality, and is especially favourable, when it is remembered how
severely the life offices generally suffered from the epidemic of last
year.
The number of lives assured between the let of June, 1949, and
the 31st of %I ay, 1850, was more than double the number issued in
the twelve months preceding.
Prop ‘sals were made for 135 Policies, amounting to 52,9631.25. 6d.:
of these 121, comrrising 106 lives, were accepted for 45,125/. Cm.
Sixteen Policies lapsed, representing 6,0481., upon 'shin 3201. 3s.
was received by the Company in the shape of premiums
Since the c .mmencement of the Company to the let of Tune last,
assuran 'es were effected to the extent of 110,972/. 12s 6d., pro-
ducing in annual nremiums 3,732/. 1 ls. 6d. Of these 54 lapsed,
amounting to 23,990/. 16s. 61, of which the annual premiums were
7411. Is., leaving the yearly income on the let of June last equal to
2,991/. 15s. I Id.
,ince last meeting loans were applied for to the extent of 17,700/.,
but 1,1831. lls. 101 only was advanced.
The Directors were also highly gratified to report that within the
last four m mths 'hey had considerably extended their business on
the Continent, having appointed, as Bead Agent in France, Monsieur
de l'Etang, a gentleman of high standing in Paris, distinguished for
his integrity and ability in financial and in all assurance matters,
who. under the sanction and patronage of the Archbishop of Paris,
the Cardinal Archbish p of Lyons, and Monseigneur Parisis, Eveque
tie Langres, has already within the last tqyafa months effected a con-
siderable amount of business, not only,in Life Assurances, but in An-
nuities both Immediate and Deferred.
After various resolutions, approving of the Report, and returning
thanks to the Right Reverend Chairman, Bishop Morris, the Vice-
Chairman, Actuary, Secretary, and Medical Officers of the establish-
ment, the meeting separated, highly gratified at its present results
and future prospects.

afford 25 per cent. additional exhibiting surface to
that provided on the ground•floor. This extra space
is suited for the display of light manufactured goods,
and will also give a complete view of the whole of the
articles exhibited, together with an extensive view of
the interior of the building. In order to give the roof
a light and graceful appearance, it is built on the ridge
and furrow principle, and glazed with British sheet glass,
as previous!), dem ibed. The rafters are continued in
uninterrupted lines the whole length of the building.
The transept portion, although covered by a semicircular
roo', is also on the angular ptinciple. All the roof and
upright sashes being made by machinery, are put toge-
'her and glazed with great rapidity, for, being fitted and
finial:led before they are brought to the place, little more
is required on the spot than to place the finished mate-
rille in the position intended for them. The lehgth of
saslibar requisite is 205 miles. The quantity of
glass required is about 900,000 feet, weighing up-
wards of 400 tons. All ronnd the lower tier of the build,
ing, however, will be boarded with fillets planted on
a perpendicular line with the saStbars above.- I have
tried many experiments in order to find out the most
Imitable floors fur the pathways of horticultural structure.
Stone is objectionable on many accounts, but chiefly en
account of the moisture and damp which it retains, which
renders it uncomfortable, especially to those wearing thin
shoes. The difficulty of getting rid of the waste from the
watering of plants is also an objection; but, perhaps, the
greatest is the amount of dust from sweeping, which al-
ways proves detrimental to plants. I likewise found that
chose boarding for pathways Was open to many of the
same objecrions as stone; for although damp or moisture
was in part got rid of. Set :mill there were no
means of imm-diately getting rid of dust. These various
onjrciiona led me to the adoption of trellised wooden
pathways, with spaces between each board, through
which, on sweeping, the dust at once disappears, and
tells into the vacuity b-!low. Whilst the accomplishment
of his point was most important in plant houses, I con•
dicier it doubly so with respect to the ludustrial build-
ing, where there will he such an accumulation of various
d!tieles cf delicate texture and wurktnanship. Betorn
sweeping the fl e!rs of the great building, the whole will
be sprinkled with water tram a moveable haud-engine,
which will be immediately followed by a sweeping ma-
chine, consisting of many brooms fixed to an apparatus
oe light wheels and drawn by a shaft. By this means
large portion of ground will be passed over in a very
.hers, space of time. The boards for the floor will be nine
inches broad, an inch-and• a-half thick, laid half an inch
apart, on sleeper joists, nine inches deep and three
inches thick, placed four fe-t apart. This method of
flooring, then, possesses the following advantages:—
It is very economical, dry, clean, pleaeaut to
walk upon, admits of the dust falling through the

spaces; and, even when it requires to be thoroughly
washed, the water at once disappears betwixt
the openings, and the boards become almost im-
mediately fit for visitors. The galleries will
be laid with close boarding. The ventilation of the
building has been most carerully considered. A building
where so many individuals will congregate must require
a constant admission of pure air; and a most copious
supply is provided. Four feet round the whole of the
basement part of the building is made of Louvre-board-
ing; and at the top of each tier a similar provision of
three feet is made, with power to add an additional
quantity if required; in the centre aisle, also, the air
will be plentifully admitted. By simple machinery the
whole of this ventilation can be regulated with the
greatest ease. The advantages of this kind of ventila-
tion are several. Louvre boards are very simple in
construction; they can be opened and closed instanta-
neously with the greatest readiness; they nicely distri-
bute the air, and yet admit a large volume of it; and,
from the mariner in which they are placed over each
other, they effectually prevent the entrance of wet in
rainy weather. In order to subdue the intense light in
so Inrge a building covered with glass, all the south
side of the upright parts, and the whole of the
angled roof, will be covered outside with canvass or
calico, so fixed as to allow a current of air to pass
between the canvass and the roof. In very hot
weather water may be poured on, which will very
much assist in cooling the temperature within. Provi-
sion will be made to use the Indian plan of ventilation,
if the heat is so intense as to render it desirable to have
the temperature cooler than out of doors. A house was
fitted up last summer at Chatsworth, as an experimental
place to try this mode of ventilating, when it was found
to answer the purpose admirably. The temperature was
reduced in one hour from 95 to 78 degrees, without any
other means bring used to increase the draught through
the building. - This sort of covering offers the following
advantages—the brightness-of the light will be tempered
and subdued, 'the glass will be protected from the possi-
bility of injury by hail; the screen being placed on the
outside will render the building much cutler than if it
were placed inside, and through this provision the ven-
tilation can be regulated at pleasure. From the side
galleries, running the whole length of the building, there
will be grand views of the goods and visitors below,
whilst the transverse galleries in the middle and at the
ends will afford ample means for general supervision,
and will serve to communicate between the side galleries.
Magnifying glasses, working on swivels placed at short dis-
tances, will give additional facility for commanding a mote
perfect general view of the Extibititin. After the Ex-
hibition is over, I would convert the building into a per-
' manent winter garden, and weuld then make carriage
drives end equestrian promenades the ugh it. Pedes-
trians would have about two miles of galleries and two
miles of walks upon the ground floor, And sufficient
room would then be left for plants. The whole inter-
mediate spaces between the walks and drives would be
planted with shrubs and climbers from temperate climates.
In summer the upright glass might be removed, so as to
give the appearance of a continuous park and garden. A
structure where the industry of all nations is intended
to be exhibited, should, it is presumed, present to parties
from all nations a building for the exhibition of their.
arts and manuiactures; that, while it affords ample ac-
commodation and convenience for the purposes intended,
would, of itself, be the most singular and 'peculiar feature
of the exhibition; how far this has been accomplished I
must leave to the community to decide. I have now en-
deavoured to give a brief outline of the Exhibition
building of 1851. It will be seen from the simplicity of
all its parts, together with the simplicity of the detail,
that the construction does not offer a subject that re-
quires me to dwell longer upon.. The section of one
part shows the whole; for it is only by the multiplica-
tion of these parts that the stupendous structure now in
progress is extended. When I consider the cheapness
of glass and cast-iron, and the great facility with which
they can. be used, I have no doubt but many
structures similar to that at Darley will be attached to
dwelling•houees, where they may serve as sitting-
rooms, conservatories, waiting-rooms, or omnibus-
rooms, if I may be allowed the expression. lam now,
in feet, engaged in making the design for a gentleman's
house to be covered wholly with glass ; and when wo
consider that wherever lead is now used glees may with
equal propriety be substituted, I have every hope that
it will be used for buildings of various conditions and
characters. Structures of this kind are also susceptible
of the highest ornamentation in stained glass and ge-
neral painting. lam not without hope that it will be-
come almost universal in its use, and that the sa stern
will be extended for manufacturing purposes, as well as
general cemeteries, and also horti6ltural buildings, so
that even market-gardeners will advantageously apply
it in the growing of foreign fruit for the London mar-
kets. I even go so far as to indulge in the sanguine
hope that agriculture will be ultimately benefited by
the application of east iron and glass. In short, there
is no limit to the uses to which It may be applied—no
f Jresight can define the limits where it will end: an d
we may cougratulste ours-lv.•a that in the nineteenth
century the progress of science and the spirit of ma-
nufacturers have placed at our disp,,sal the application
of materials which were unknown to the ancients, and
thereby enabled us to erect such structures as would
have been deemed impossible even in the early port of
the present century.
Several questions were then put to Mr. Paxton with
reference to the details of his plan, which he answered
applrently to the satisfaction of the meeting. After
which the thanks or the society were uaunimously
voted to him for his valuable paper.
