who, with two or three of the Liverpool workmen, have
accompanied it to the metropolis. It will, of course, take
some time to put it together and finish, so that it will be
attractive amidst the variety of the World's Fair. The
miniature streets and dock quays have yet to be clothed,
so as to represent the busy hum of life and business ; and
this is a minute operation which will require a great deal
of skill and patience. We have before allude to the
" model men" ; and we may add, that so compact are
they that a thousand of them arc contained in one of the
smallest sized pill-boxes. The cars, omnibuses, waggons,
lorries, floats, &c., have also to be placed, and, though
equally diminutive, are essential to complete the general
effect of the model. We understand that the expense of
the model, and the collection of imports, will be about
£1,200, and the committee have not yet received two.
thirds of that sum. We hope that during the present
week some few more of our merchant princes and enter.
prising tradesmen will contribute to the fund.
