Most Of your readers are tolerably familiar with the
plan of the Industrial Palace Unnecessary there
FORE for to say further than that it is an enormous
obong, with immense area, the sides OF which are
formed by those galleries which, in 1858, were found
spacious enough accommodate many thousand bales of

Underneath these galleries archcd reccsses lsh"d

to visit and which the most exalted pcrsonages in the
civilized world gaze on, is almost ready to
look upon them many beasts OF sacrifice prepared
as of old as votivc Offering for the sins Of humanity
The order in which they stand is something follows
Entering the grande porte turning to the right the hrst
lines of stalls filled with pure Durhams, or what are
more generally termed short horns,o from England
They consist Of sixty bulls and as many cows The beau
