Groups of musical instruments, stand
ing out almost detached from the back

Gent and modern, clustered with care
less grace aad quint variety from the
violin down to a string of sleigh bells,
they call up all the echoes Of forgotten
music, such as'the thousand tongued
,organ blends together in one grand har-
mony.
The Instruments placed upon a low
platform, the outlines of which are in
accordance with its own. Its whole
height is about sixty feet, its breadth
forty-eight feet and its average depth
twenty-four feet. Some idea Of its
magnitude NAV be got from the fact
that the wind-machinery and the swell
organ alone fill up the whole recess oc-
cupied by the former organ, which was
not a small one. All the other portions
of the intruments come forward into
the hall.

seventy-fve pounds; but they are we'll pro

Their skin is dark, though not black as that
of the negro, and their faces decidedly ugly
They so entirely naked, they shave the hair
off their head with pieces Of bamboo or broken
bottle, and further increase their unsightiy ap-
pearance by daubing themselves all over with
oehre and oil; or covering their person tow
