80 LONDON, August, 1853
We were up this morning 70 sec the sun rise,
"a job, by the way, that there ara men who
make a business of doing, and on their signs,
too, as you wilIsaa, " People called up at any
hour Of the night by John Bull, :" Sc. But to
tAe sln-it rises little past three, and sets
past eight in the lovgcstA days, thus making q
ti,ars besides long twligh,s,
and 50 light is it that have read many a
night after nine clock, in the back part Of a
room, and away from light. Of course,
such long days are followed by short ones, and
ia winter, | am told, many times it is 50 dark
= smoke, &C., that It is necessary to keep
hts burning all day Shpt then, while we can
I've these calm, beautiful evenings of the pres
Kent, ! ath mot going to complain of, or dread
Z the future
A wordin regard to the weather may not be
unwshed for: Since arrived it has been quite
comfortable, some days little chilly, but most
of the time. with fair amount of clothing
one need notsuifer. During the time OF my
voyage, or the middle of June, it was called
quite warm here but it seemed that the colo
storm which we started with, continued across
and affected this cline. The first two week
were quite dry it then rained for about tw,
ing to rain, that adopted the plan Of takin,
an umbrella with me, if the sun shone, and
wished to be out a few minutes, and if it rained
it would answer to go without, and thus coult
Iavoid more rain than in any other way, 70
in ten minutes after it was raining hard TIL
sun would shine, and use uersa. The last tw
weeks have been very beautiful, and no rail
save refreshing shower or two and althoug
it has been only what we should call comfort
able, at any time, the people here will conside
dAit very, very warm, as they know nothing abou
our intense warm weather and what add
much to the beauty Of the temperature is, tn
equilibrium Of heat day and night-the da
I Sool, the night apparently no colder, with n
Tdsws and fogs to cool the evening. Thousand
Of operatives leave their factories, and with n
covering save that worn in the mill, remain ou
l all the evening with impunty-a practice whic
could but meet the worst conseq quences with us
but the atmosphere here will sanction it, if tn
rules of proprety and decency will not; bu
Z, where there are 50 many as in these parts,
would be better to try to remedy many evil
in which they allow themselves, than to spea
Of this which is Of 50 much less importance
On this subject, however, we shall have occ'
sion to speak hereafter, SO will leave it for IL
present.
Hotels you may like to know about, for,
r course, they are Indispensable to the trayelir
public Yes, they have them here, and d mo
ley crew they are too. Some few in Londo
and two or three in Manchester are Of vel
respectable size, but none Of our Metropolita
st. Nicholas, Astor, or other houses with viii
our large cities abound, are here to be found.
The largest here will not Accommodate mo
than tho Pavilion in Montpelier, but when v
consider that nearly every tenth building
tenement is beer house, and beer houses a
the English Hotels. you need not fear for 7
travelling public. There are hundreds Of tht
places, with signs in large letters Of Que
Ammo, Prince Albert, and all these high-soun
ing names OF royalty. At many Of these y
will only find beer vault and bed accommot
tions for one or two perhaps. Thus are
cities filled with drinking shops, under the mn
and license of Hotels; many Of which are
reality nothing but these resorts. When y
