PToLENY, in his great work written
while Caesar was a boy, calls Albion a
British island; and Pliny before the close
of the first century and little before
Ptolemy says that the island of Great
Britain was formerly called Albion, the
name of Britain being common to all the
islands about it. The formerly" goes
back to earliest records, for Aristotle, born
3S4 years b. c., mentions the islands
OF Albion and Ierne. The name is pro-
badly of Gallic origin, the same as Albyn
(or Albin), the name of Scottish High
lands. It is the plural of alp, or alir,
signitying rocky mountains, the shore
which looked toward France appearing
like a long row of rocks.

tance. Standing on elevated ground, it
is seen afar from every direction. IT'S
numerous towers-every church having
several besides the steeples-with hun
dreds of domes and cupolas, either gilded
or painted green and spangled with stars,
together with many gardens and trees
intermixed with the houses, give it quite
an Oriental appearance, and fill the
traveller with wonder and admiration
when it first breaks upon his view. The
river Moskva flows at the base of the hill
on which the Kremlin is built. The
Kremlin is vast citadel or city within
a city, enclosed by a wall from twelve to
sixteen feet high, with many towers,
embattJements and beautiful gates, 1t
constants many magnificent churches,
also the Large palace and Little palace.
