IXINDQN, ENGLAND, 1
Our next drlre' waf threugA lte-
,at and Hyde Parke, on ourway to
Buckingham Palace, which has been
the city residence of the Queen of
England since 1837. The interior is
not shown to visitors unless the
Queen is absent from London. This
magnificent edifice of stone forms a
quadrangle, and was erected by John
Sheffield, Duke of Buckingham; was
purchased by George III. and de¬
scended to the present Queen. The
principal facade is 380 feet high, and
the ceilings of the magnificent mar¬
ble staircase are beautifully frescoed,
representing Morning, Noon, Even-
ing and Night. >.'w ! .■ ■ A
A drive through Hyde Park is very
interesting as well as fashionable.
This park covers an area of300 acres.
The grounds were laid out and en¬
dued by Henry VIII. The Serpen¬
tine, a beautiful sheet of artificial
water, is situated in the center of the
park, and pleasure boats can be
hired upon it in summer, and when
frozen in winter it is a great resort
for skaters. In this park also stands
the Albert Memorial, erected by the
English people to the late Prine*
Consort. From a spacious platform
to which granite steps ascend on
every side, and adorned by 169 fig¬
ures in marble, representing Manu¬
facture, Commerce, Agriculture and
Engineering, rises the basement upon
which sits the bronze-gilt figure of
Prince Albert. The monument ter¬
minates in a gothic spire surmounted
by a cross; the whole being 175 feet
high and embellished by bronze, mar¬
ble and mosaics. It bears the fol¬
lowing inscription in these letters:
“From Queen Victoria and her peo¬
ple to the memory of Albert Prince
Consort, etc.” Hyde Park is sur¬
rounded by a handsome iron raUing,
and has nine carriage entrances. It
contains many statues and monu¬
ments, also magnificent groups of
old trees, with great expanses of
grass on either side of the broad,
well kept avenues for driving and
riding. Running parallel to one of
these avenues is the famous “Rotten
Row” track, reserved for riders
alone.' On these avenues are seen
files of elegant equipages, well bred
high stepping horses, driven by liv¬
eried coachmen and occupied by
some of the most beautiful women in
the world.
Regent Park is even larger than
Hyde, covering 472 acres of ground,
and in this park are situated several
private residences. Here, too, are
the Zoological Gardens, the finest
collection of large animals, birds,
monkeys, bats, fish and snakes in the
world. At feeding time they all
come out of their hidingplaces and it
is a very interesting sight and well
worth studying. In these gardens
are to be found animals from all
parts of the known world, and each
and every kind are/provided with
well built brick houses with plenty of
room for exercise. The Botanic Gar¬
dens are in this park, and here large
flower shows take place.
From Regent’s Park we drive down
the Marylebone Road, on which we
find Madame Tussaud’s wax work
exhibition. This is a world renowned
and interesting collection of wax fig¬
ures (life size) of ancient and mod¬
ern notabilities. We enter the Hall
of Kings from , the broad marble
staircase. Here we find all the kings
and queens of the Plantagenet line,
from the year 1100 to 1400. These
statues are all dressed in the cos¬
tumes of their times. Amongst the
most noticeable are those of Henry
VIH. and his wives, Katherine of Ar-
ragon and Anne Boleyn, together
with Geoffrey Chaucer, Oliver Crom¬
well, Joseph Garibaldi and John
Wyckliffe. The second chamber con¬
tains the fate Benjamin Disraeli,
Marquis of Salisbury, William Glad¬
stone, Boulanger, Francis Bacon
and many others. At the other end
of the room we find Louis XVI. of
France, and the beautiful but most
unfortunate Marie Antoinette, both
of whom perished by the guillotine
upon the Place de la Concord in
Paris. In the center of the room is a
group of th« present royal family;
these figures are very life lfke. Here
we find Wm. Shakespeare, Abraham
Lincoln, Garfield, General Grant
and Voltaire, poet and philosopher.
Here sfde by side we find kings, mu¬
sicians, statesmen and artists, Chas.
Keene, the actor, List, the composer,
the late centenarian Moses Monte-
flori, Lionel de Rethchild, grandson
of the founder of that house, Mar¬
shal MacMabon, the hero of Sedan,
Victor Hugo, General Gordon of
Khartoum, George Washington and
a great many others, all here in wax
to be kept green in the memory of
future generations. Passing to an

A Pleasant Event.
It always gives us great joy to
hear of or witness anything that
brings supreme happiness to a large
number of good people. Such an oc¬
casion was the re-union of the family
of Mr. W. B. Collier, which occurred
on Sunday last at Indian Springs. f
Picture the peace and happiness o
this old man, with locks whitened
by the snows of nearly eighty win¬
ters, as he gazed lovingly at the dear
good wife, six manly sons, four
daughters, a»d sixteen grandchil¬
dren all with faces radiant with joy
at the re-union of loved ones so long
separated. One son with wife and
three chfldren from the picturesque
hills of New Mexico; one grandson
and bride from the Lone Star State;
one son from Alabama, talking
blushingly of the bride he expects to
have, and the rest gathered in from
all parts of our own grand State.
Altogether a happier looking group
could hardly be imagined. Such
scenes occur now and then as oases
to brighten the journey of life. Me-
thinks the angels in heaven smile as
they took on these grand old people
and feel like exclaiming, “Well
done, come up higher.” I wonder
