Wonderful ingenuity was displayed in
so placing the Chinese Emperor's palace
as to secure the greatest variety of stu

views. Every natural feature of the
ground has been elaborated so as to
produce charming landscapes. which
could scarcely be recognized as artificial;
hills OF from ten to sixty feet in height
were constructed, divided by little val
leys and watered by four streams forn-
ing cascades and lakes. one of which
was five miles in circumference. On its
calm waters tloated beautiful pleasure
boats, including one magnificent house,
boat for the amusement of the ladies of
the palace.
In every direction winding paths led
to quaint little pavilions and charming
grottoes, while artificial rock-work was
made the nursery for all manner of
beautiful flowers, much care being be-
slowed on securing great variety for
every season of the year. Towering
trees were scattered over the grassy
hills, and their blossoms perfumed the
air. Each stream was crossed at fire.

highly ornamental bridges of wood,
