Our legal rights will henceforth be rigidly enforced. THE IMMENSE SUPERIORITY of Sinirer'a Sewlmr Ma. chines has been completely established.

Old St. Paul's, was a spacious edifice, 690 feet by 130, with a nave 102 feet high, and a choir 89 feet high. In 1043, by a decree of the Long Parliament, its revenues were seized, its nave became a garrison for troopers, and the cross, where for ages the highest Church dignitaries had preached, was torn down. In 1603, Charles II commenced its restoration; but, while the repairs were in progress, the great fire or 1000 swept over it. In 16-75, Sir Christopher Wren laid the first stone of the present cathedral, and in 17-10 his son laid the last of the cupola St. Paul's being one of the very few cathedrals that have been erected under the su-perintendance of the same architect. It is not built according to Sir Christopher's model which is still shown in the building, and which all now agree is superior to that which was adopted. Two parties Papal and Protestant influenced the commissioners who were charged with the work : the former desired to adapt the proposed edifice to ecclesiastical fetes and pro cessions, the latter to Christian worship and sonjr. A compromise was made.' The buildinrr is, however, in the form of a cross, having naves and transepts. Its entire length is 500 feet, transept proper 385 loot, breadth of nave and transept 107 feet. Over the intersection of nave and transept rises the dome, above which suc cessively the lantern, the ball, and the cross. The average height of the walls is 00 feet, the campanile towers 220, the height of the summit of the cross 404.- The principal entrance is in the west front.which is the most beautiful : its ped iment is ornamented with statues of bt. Peter, St. John, and Ct. Paul, and its en tablature with a representation of the miraculous conversion of the last named apostle ; the other entrances are at the north and south ends of the transepts, by semicircular hexastyle porches. Passing by a massive gate which surrounds that portion of the Church-Yard encompassing the building, I entered by the northern portico, over which is carved the royal arms supported by angels. It was in the interval between morning and evening worship, which is performed here every day, and I found no difficulty in reaching a sort of ticket officer, to whom I paid 4s. 6d., to see the curiosities by tho assistance of a guide. We first made the circuit ol nave, choir and transepts, observing the monumental sculptures, concerning which noted two remarks; 1. Ihey are all modern, none having been allowed here tin lreo. x. With the exception ol eight a a. ail are erected to naval or military com manders. The first which fixed my at' tention is a representation of Fame consoling Britannia for the loss of her heroes : the chief between the dome and choir gates exhibits Nelson, arrayed in his Turkish pelisse, leaning upon an anchor, with a coil of rope at his feet ; on one side is the British lion, comchant, on the other Britannia pointing two young sailors upward to the exalted hero ; on the pe destal, in relief, are allegorical representations of the North Sea, the German Ocean, Nile and Mediterranean : and on the cor nice the words, 'Copenhagen,' 'Nile,' 'Tra falgar.' The last erected to Capt. Duff consists of Britannia decorating a sarcophagus on which is placed the medallion of the departed officer, and a sailor bearing the naval flag, lamenting his decease. I felt as if I were in a temple of 'Mars' rather than of Christ. If you wish to inspire your child for bloody battle, take him to St. Paul's and let him linger there. There is a work of art at the entrance of the choir from the nave, which the stranger will not lightly pa9s ; it is the screen with its wrought iron gates. The eight Corinthian columns of blue veined marble that support the organ and gallery, beautiful in themselves, are rendered more so by their carved work. Near the gallery is a plain slab, bearing the name of Christopher Wren the builder and having an inscription, the last line of which is, " Lector si moaunicntuin requiris, circumspice.'' Tho orgain contains 32 stops and 2,123 pipes, its effects are grand; it was built by Bernard Schmidt, in 1694, but has undergone successive alterations under the direction of Ohrman, Nutt, and Bishop. The stalls of the choir are enriched with the most elegant carving ; the altar piece is adorned with four fluted pilasters, painted and veined with gold. Within the choir and aisles the floor is white ; in the body and west end, it consists of blocks of black and white marble, alternately; within the altar rails, of porphyry, polished and placed in geometrical forms. Tho pulpit is elegantly carved and occupies a central position. But it is time to pass. Let us descend the crypt; a guide precedes us with a lantern, and another is below, to make all necessary explanations. Its divisions correspond to those above, and are made by pillars forty feet square. In the semi-circular apis we find that all re mains of the old cathedral, consisting of mutilated statues that seem scarce worth saving. In various parts are the bodies of dead ; among them is quite a congregation of artists Reynolds, West, Lawrence.and kindred spirits; but tho chief attraction are the tombs of the two great heroes of Britain Nelson and Wellington. That of Nelson is a sarcophagus of black marble, crowned with a coronet nnd cushion, and reposing on a base of masonry, which incloses the remains of tho admiral; the pedestal bears the simple inscription, 'Horatio Viscount Nelson.' The sarcophagus it a curiosity, from the circumstance that it was the one which Cnrdinal Woolsey designed for himself, That of Wellington will, when complete, be still more sumptuous. Ascending from the crypt, wo pass on to the etair foot door leading to the whispering gallery and ball. The entire ascent to the bail, we are told, is 610 steps. When half way up to the whispering gal lery, we met a man who was quite a monk in aspect, and who led us, by a long gal- ery, to the library. He repeats by rote a description of it, which may be condensed in the following words : " Behold the floor; it consists of 2,300 pieces of oak inlaid without nails or pegs; the library contains many rare manuscripts, and pol yglot Bibles, and the first Book ot common Prayer ever printed; it has in all 7,000 volumes. Mark the elegance of the wainscoting cases for the books, and fail not to notice this likeness of Bishop Compton, under whom the Cathedral was built. 1 he same person conducts us to the ecometrical staircase, which consists of one hundred and ten steps, apparently suspended on nothing, and intended as a private way to the library, we now pro ceed onward by the west window to the " model room," where the guide exhibits and explains Sir C. Wren's model of the cathedral, the rejection of which, he assures us, is matter of regret. Returning toward the library, we are told to ascend a flight of stairs in the tur ret, at the top of which we should see the great bell. Having ascended, we are received by a tidy-looking lady, who points out the various parts ot the Dell ana ciock, and in the manner of a school girl reciting her composition, gives us the following information: "The bell is ten inches thick, and weighs 11,474 lbs.; the hammer lying on the outside brim weighs 145 lbs.; and drawn by a wire at the back part of the clock work, falls, by its own weight, upon the brim of the bell; the clock striking the hour on it is often heard twenty miles off; the clapper weighs 180 lbs., and is moved only on the death of a member of the royal family, the Arch bishop of Canterbury, the Bishop of Lon don, bean of St. Paul's, or Lord Mayor. On two smaller bells below the clock strikes the quarters; of these the larger one weighs over 24 cwt., the smaller over 12 cwt. The great bell produces the mu sical note A, concert pitch; the next in size is toned a fifth, and the smallest an octave to the great bell. The prayer bell is in the opposite turret. Ihe clock is one of the largest in Europe, and was made in 1708 by Langley Bradley. It has two dial plates, one south, the other west, each 57 feet in circumference. I he minute hands are 9 feet 8 inches long and weigh 75lbs.; the hour hands 5 feet 9 inches and weigh 441bs.; the figures 2 feet 2 inches long. The pendulum is 16 feet; its bob weighs InOlbs., and its boat is 2 seconds." The lady now directs to tho whispering gallery, here a gentleman meets us, who bids us walk around to the opposite point; then turnins to the wall, he whispers to us, and his voice, though there be a distance of 1 40 feet between us, appears close to our ear. Instead ot whispering things foolish, he gave us some account of the gallery, which I am unable to recall, and directed us to observe, through the railing, the floor of the cathedral below, with its circles, and slabs of black and white marble; the black slabs forming a mariner's compass, exhibiting the thirty-two points complete; and also asking us to look up. It was, indeed, a relief to me to do so, for I was growing giddy. "And what did you see?" The beautiful painting of the dome, executed by the great historic painter, Sir James Thornhill, and representing the different scenes in the life of St. Paul his conversion, his judgment of Elymas, his imprisonment at Phillipi.his preaching at Athens, his defense before Agrippa, and his ship-wreck at Melita. A scaffolding was suspended from the dome by ropes, and on it an artist was engaged retouching the paintings, which were somewhat faded. My tickets would have admitted me to the golden gallery, which is higher up, and outside, affording a fine view of the city and surrounding country, and to the ball, which is large enough to contain 12 persons; but I was quite weary and descended to the foot of the stairs. A few days afterwards, when I was surveying the church from a distance, I regretted very much that I did not reach at least the golden gallery. Reader, go up higher when you visit St. Paul's. Having noticed a few more objects below ; namely, tho marble font, the ecclesiastical court, the morning chapel, the lord mayor's vestry, and the Dean's vestry, I passed out, thinking that my time and money had been well spent. This building alone cost about four million dollars, when labor and material were very much less than they are now. The members of the Cathedral originally consisted besides the chorister boys and lay officers of a bishop, thirty major canons or prebendaries, twelve minor canons, and thirty vicars choral. Now a dean has the supreme jurisdiction; 26 of the prebendaries are sinecures, and 24 of the vicars choral are dispensed with. The lord mayor's chaplain preaches here on state occasions, and tho residentiary canons in turn, on Sabbath afternoon. Of the worship in this cathedral I propose to write something in another letter. I have been thus particular in describing these buildings, because you have many youthful readers, and because we have nothing like them in this country, nnd probably never shall have, the State having no authority to erect them, and the Church having neither means nor desire to do so. While I have no sympathy with the motive which suggested them, I have no sympathy either with the vandalism which would demolish a cross, where Latimer and Ridley had preached, or the puritanical enthusiasm which would turn St. Paul's into a parrispn.or Westminster into stable. They are deserving of preservation as great piles of history. Thoutrh we may have no great cathedrals, ought we not to have churches adapted internally to worship, nnd so constructed externally as to indicate their purpose, without being distinguished from the neighboring houses, as the druggist distinguishes his different bottles by a label. E. Thomson.
