The problem which the situation presents will soon

The Duke delivered high encomium upon the
character of President MacMahon, 'whose private
life and public actions entitled him to be called

Restoration Of WarKlck Castle.

During the past year considerable pro
gress has been made in restoring the pri-
vate apartments and hall of Warwick Cas-
tie, which were destroyed by the calanit-
Gus fire in December, 1871. The whole of
the external walls have been repaired
and the partician walls of the domestic
apartments are nearly completed. The
baronial hall is also progressing satisfac
torily, but the workmen have only lust
begun to restore the dining room and the
grand entrance hall. At the East end of
The hall, two doorways have been discov
cred, with arched heads Of the Fourteenth
Century, but no trace remains of the rooms
or corridors with which they must at
some time have communicated. -Four
closed apertures have also been found in
the South wall, overlooking the River
Avon; corresponding with the windows In
the external hall, which light the hall.
Amid the debris carted out Of tie ruins of
the hall, mary relics of the armor which
adorned It's walls have been recovered.
Notwithstanding the intense heat to
which it was subjected, and ;the molten
lead from the roof having poured down
into the hall, it is believed that nearly the
whole of the steel armor will be restored.
The work has been entrusted to Mr..
Syers, an experienced antiquarian armor-
er, who has already recovered and re
stored some of the most valuable speci
mems. Among the number are Lord
Broke's armor in which he was killed at
the siege Of Lichfeld Cromwelps elabor-
ately-embossed helmet, the Duke of Mon
trose's polished amor, splendid futad
suit of the time of Henry VII, and va
riety Of minor, but valuable things. The
greatest loss will be in the woodwork of
the Indian guns and other armor, many of
which were richly inlaid with silver and
studded with jewels These are hope
lessly lost. The state apartments, from
which the costly furniture and the gems of
painting and sculpture were hnrriedly
removed, when the total destruction
Of the castle seemed imminent, have been
carefully and skillfully restored, and now
bear only slight traces of injury.
