Wells, Fargo ital last visited by him : and, if taking the
French route, much convenience will be the consequence if he jirocuro
the vise of llie Nuncio at Paris. If this be impossible, the Pai)al Consu-
lar vise at some important town will suffice. The Austrian vise is
also available for all parts of Italy. At each town the pass|)ort is
examined and countersigned, for which a fee of two jiauls has to be
paid ; and in garrison towns, tlie same formality is observed on
leaving. The traveler, before quitting Rome on his return, should
obtain to liis passport the visas of the representatives of the various
dominions through which he i)urposes to travel.

tentiary, 138 Piccadilly.

The whole system of passi>orts, or passport business, (for a business
it is.) is an arbitrary nuisance which ought to be abolished by all
civilized and enlightened nations. While the system exists it is
necessary for travelers always to carry their passports about their
person.
IjUGGAGE. — Much luggage will be found inconvenient, trouble-
some, and very expensive. On the Belgian railroads, every i)Ound of
luggage is charged for. except such as you can carry into tlie carriage
with you ; in France, the heavy luggage is sent bj an extia convey-
ance, which causes a sepaiation for some days ; on the Rliine, although
you may take on board almost any quantity, it is not very pleasant to
be running about Paris, Biussels, or any other much-frequented large
town, looking for lodgings, at the tail of a truck with ten or a dozen
trunks and jiortmanteaus. When engaging a voiturier, the weight of
your luggage is an important consideration, and you must pay accord-
ingly. These little inconveniences should therefore induce the tra-
veler to weigh well the articles it is indispensable to take; but this must,
also, in a great measure depend upon the length of time to be devoted
to travel. A portmanteau, with a small carpet-bag with dressing
things and chanffe of linen, and hat-case, should be sufficient for a gen-
tleman taking an entire tour of the Continent.
French Custom-house Regulations at Boulogne- sur-Mer. — The traveler
has a right to claim his luggage personally at the custom-house, or by
a commissionaire, whom he may employ. The list of authorized com-
missioners is posted up in the travelers' reception-room at the custom-
house.
When the traveler personally claims his luggage he cannot bo
charged anything, under any pretext, beyond the following sums : —
weight. fr. sous.
Articles and packages under 10 lbs. '* 7
Do. from lOlbs. to ^ cwt " 14
Do. from ^ cwt. to 2 cwt 1 "
Do. above '2 cwt 1 10
These charges include the expenses of landing, ware-housing, and
conveying to any jiart of the town the traveler may direct.
A traveler, employing a commissioner, to clear his luggage is only
bound to pay him according to the printed tarift".
THE MILE. 139
Registering Luggage by the Special Tidal Trains. — Passengers
Jor Paris by Ike Tidal Trains are recommended to have their Luggage regis-
tered for Pai'is direct at the London Station. By so doing, they will avoid
detention at Boulogne, and be relieved of all expense attending their Luggage
until their aiiival in Paris. Those passengers who do not take this precau-
tion run the risk of missing the Tidal Train to Paris, as none but registered
lAiggag€ is permitted to pass thtongk Boulogne without examination by the
Customs, and tlie rapidity of the journey only allows sufficient time at
Boulogne for the examination of Passports and transmission of the Lug-
gage to the Railway station, %,'i charge of \s. per passenger is made for
registration.
4®^ For farther information see Coghlan's Guide through France,
Belgium, &c.
MONEY. — Travelers proceeding from the United States, or Eng-
land to the Continent should supply themselves with circular exchange
notes, which may be obtained of the principal bankers in New York,
London or in Paris.

ENGLISH COINS.
ENGLISH COINS.
GOIiD COIW.
The standard gold coin of Great Britain is made of a metal consist-
ing of 22 parts of pure gold and 2 parts of copper. The pound sterling
is represented by a gold coin called a sovereign, and from a pound
troy of standard gold are coined 46 29-40 sovereigns, so that the weight
of each is 5 dwts. 3 171-623 grs., or 123 274 grs.; and the mint price of
standard gold is therefore very nearly £3 17.9. lO^d. per ounce.
SILiVSR COIN.
The standard silver coin consists of 37 parts of pure silver and 3
parts of copper, and a pound troy of this metal furnishes 66 shillings,
so that the weight of a shilling is 3 dwts. 15 3.11 grs , and the mini
price of standard silver is 5s. 6d. per ounce. The silver coinage is
not a legal tender for more than 40s., the gold coinage above men-
tioned being the only general standard of value.
In the copper coinage, 24 pence are made from an avoirdupois pound
of copper, so that a penny should weigh 10? drs. avoirdupois, or 291|
grs. troy ; but this is not a legal tender for more than lid.
A farthing is the lowest denomination in use, but it is castomary to
denote farthings by fractions of a penny, as in the table.
A Farthing is written or marked }d.
2 Farthings are 1 Halfpenny ^d.
4 Farthings 1 Penny \d.
12 Pence 1 Shilling Is.
20 Shillings 1 Pound £1.
Money as expressed by means of these denominations is commonly
called sterling money, in order to distinguish it from stock, &c., which
is merely nominal.
Though all commercial transactions are conducted by means of the
money enumerated in the preceding table, there are other coins or de-
nominations frequently met with, and some of them more particularly
in old documents, of which the following are the most important, and
their values in current money are here annexed :

cial and manufacturing city, situated in the north-east corner of War-
wickshire. It is 112 miles north-west from London, seventy-nine
miles south-east from Liverpool, and about the same distance north-
east from Bristol. As Birmingham is nearly in the centre of England,
its situation is elevated and healthy. The appearance of the city is not
prepossessing ; a great part of the houses being inhabited by workmen
and their families, who are employed in the numerous manufacto-
ries and workshops for which this place is celebrated. The principal
branches of manufacture are plate and plated wares, ornamental steel
goods, jewellery, japannery, cut glass ornaments, steel pens, cast iron
article-s. guns, steam engines, &c. From an early period Birmingham
baa been renowned for its manufactures in steel aud iron.

CHESTER— Population 25,000— is beautifully situated on a
rocky eminence, and abounds with curiosities and antiquities. It was
a Roman station, and many of the edifices were founded prior to the
Roman conquest. Its ancient walls are still standing, and form a most
agreeable promenade, commanding fine views of the surrounding
country. The construction of many of the streets is very remarka-
ble, for while the carriage road passes on a level with the kitchens of
the houses, foot passengers walk, sheltered from rain and lieat, in gal-
leries, called " rows," over these lower apartments, which are pur-
loined from the front chamber of each house, open in front and balus-
traded.

EDINBURGH— The metropolis of Scotland, built principally
in three parallel ridges, of considerable elevation, and separated by
deep depressions, occupies a situation eminently striking and roman-
tic, and its neigliborhood is marked by lofty hills, rising abruptly, and
in some places perpendicularly fi'om their bases to a height of 350 to
800 feet above the level of the sea, commanding splendid and extensive
views. The circumference of the city, exclusive of Leith, its seaport^
lying between it and the Forth, is almost six miles, containing a popu-
lation of about 140,000, and including Leith, of 165,000. The city is di-
vided into three districts, each occupying one of the tliree parallel
ridges, viz. the Old Town, the New Town, and the Southern Districts.
The central eminence, on which is built the Old Town, has been thus
strikingly described by Arnott, in his History of Edinburgh. " It bears
a striking resemblance to a turtle, of which the castle is the head, the
Higli street the ridge of the bacii, the wynds or closes (lanes and al-
leys) the shelving sides, and the Palace of Holyrood House the tail."
The High street, a truly magnificent street, 96 feet in width, stretches
in nearly a straight line from the castle to the palace, a distance of

more than a mile. It is connected with the New Town by the North
Bridge and the Earthen Mound. The New Town, which occupies the
northern eminence, (sloping to the water of Leith, the small river at
the mouth of which Leith is built,) is the most regular, elegant, and
beautiful quarter of the city. The soutliern districts, connected with
the Old Town by the South Bridge, erected in 1783, and by George the
Fourth's Bi-idge, opened in 1836, occupies a more elevated site than
the New Town, but the buildings are mostly of an inferior order, and
the streets are irregular; nevertheless many of the public edifices, in-
cluding the University, are in this district.
Lines of first class steamships run daily from Edinburgh or Leith
to Aberdeen, Inverness, and Dundee on the North, and to Newcastle,
Hull, and London on the south.
GLASGOW GREENOCK PERTH ABERDEEN. 15 1
GliASGOlV — The commercial metropolis of Scotland, and the
third city of the United Kingdom in population and manufacturing and
commercial importance, is situated on both sides of the Clyde ; the
portion on the southern bank of the river being called the Gurbals.
The river is bordered on both sides by fine quays, and at spring tides
vessels drawing 15 feet water can come up to the city. The city, espe-
cially the modem parts, is well built, and boasts of many magnificent
buildings, of which the Cathedral, the University, the Hunterian Muse-
um, and Royal Exchange, are the most remarkable ; besides several
public monuments to James Watt, Lord Nelson, Sir Walter Scott, Sir
John Moore, William III., and William Pitt ; and the Necropolis, in
imitation of Pere le Chaise cemetery, in Paris, is unrivalled for pictu-
resque beauty. Four stone bridges, besides a wooden one for foot pas-
sengers, cross the Clyde. Glasgow is second only to Manchester in
the manufacture'tff cottons, and is the centre of a most important and
rapidly extending iron trade. The present population is about 350,000,
having increased from 77,000 in 1801, or nearly 460 per cent. The im-
mense ship-building business whicli exists on the Clyde is principally
carried on at Port Glasgow and Greenock (about 18 miles lower down
the river), which are in fact outports of Glasgow — Glasgow and the
Clyde generally being more celebrated for the manufacture of steam
machinery than perhaps any other place in the kingdom. The pack-
ets built at and plying from the Clyde, are among the finest in the em-
pire. Steamships leave daily for Fleetwood and Liverpool on the
south, and for Dublin, Cork, Belfast, Londonderry, and other Irish
ports. Regular Lines of Packets and Steamers also run from Glasgow
to New York and Philadelpliia.
GREENOCK, situated on the south bank of the Frith of Clyde,
18 miles below Gla.sgow, is an interesting and picturesque seaport town
of Scotland. Immediately behind the town tlie land rises rapidly to a
height of 800 feet, the buildings stretching along the water for upwards
of two miles. The Clyde is navigable to Greenock for vessels of any
burden at any time of the tide. The most extensive business pur-
sued in Greenock is that of ship-building. Population about 40,000.
PERTH— 45 INIiles from Edinburgh. Population 30,000. This
is one of ilie most ancient towns in Scotland, being handsomely situ-
ated on the west bank of the Tay, 45 miles from Edinburgh. It occu-
{)ies the centre of a spacious plain, having two beautiful pieces of pub-
ic ground, extending on each side of the town, called the North and
South Inches. Penh boasts of the most remote antiquity, and has
been the scene of many interesting events. On account of its import-
ance and its vicinity to the royal palace of Scone, it was long the me-
tropolis of the kingdom before Ethnburgh obtained that distinction.
ABERDEEN— 134 miles from Edinburgh— situated on the
river Dee, is reckoned the third city in Scotland, and in point of p»-
pulation, wealth, and commerce, ranks as the cliief town in tlie north
of the kingdom, containing about 70,000 inhabitants. It is a spacious
and well built city, and possesses many handsome streets and fine pub-
lic buildings. The most important bi'anches of manufacture are cot-
ton, woolen, and linen goods. The harbor has undergone great im-
provements of late years, by a series of expensive works; among
which is a pier running into the sea upwai-ds of 1200 feet, affording
protection to the shipping. The aggregate tonnage of vessels belong-
ing to the port of Abei'deen is about" 40,000. Steamers of a large class
run from Aberdeen to Edinburgh, Newcastle, Hull, and London, pass-
ing along the east coast of En";land.

The Highlands and Mountains of Scotland are its most attractive
features to the tourist in the pursuit of health and information — they be-
ing alike famed for historical incidents, and the bracing purity of air
usually found in mountainous regions. Perth or Glasgow are good
starting points to visit the giant hills of Caledonia, the most noted of
which is tlie celebrated chain of the Grampians. Ben Mac»ui, the
highest mountain in Scotland, rises to the heigiit of 4,418 feet. Seve-
ral other peaks rise from 3,(X)0 to 4,000 feet above the ocean.
Of the many PicTUREsauE Lakes of Scotland, Loch Lomond, '^The
Lake full of Islands," is unquestionably the pride of Scottish lakes.
Its length is 23 miles, varying in breadth from 5 miles to a few rods at
ks northern terminus. A railroad runs from Glasgow to this romantic
rfieet of water, on the bosom of which floats a steamer for the conve-
nience of the tourist.

IjIVERPOOLi, 206 miles north-west from London, by railway,
is situated on the right bank of the Mersey, near its entrance into the
Irish Sea. It is now considered the second city in the kingdom, hav-
ing of late years rapidly increased in trade, commerce, population, and
wealth. At the present time it is supposed to possess one twelfth part
of the shipping of Great Britain ; one fourth part of the foreign trade ;
one sixth part of the general commerce ; and one half as much trade
as London. The imports are about twenty million pounds stei'ling in
value, the exports exceeding that sum by a fourth, and it is calculated
that upwanis of 1,600 tons of goods pass daily, on an average, between
Liverpool and Manchester. About two fifths of the tonnage, inwards
and outwards, are engaged in the trade with the United States, afford-
ing, by means of steamers and sailing vessels, almost a daily commu-
nication with Boston, New York, or Philadelphia.
During the last fifty years the improvements in Liverpool have been
very great. The city now presents an elegance not to be met with in
any other commercial port in the kingdom. The public buildings, the
stoVes, and many of the private dwellings, are splendid edifices. The
public docks are also constructed on a most magnificent scale, and of
tlie most durable material. The population now amounts to about
280,000, being mostly engaged in commerce and trade.

LONDON WINDSOR EATON. 1 55
IjONDON, the metropolis of the United Kingdom of Great Bri-
tain and Ireland, and the most populous, wealthy, and commercial
city of the world, is situated, partly and principally, on the north bank
of the Thames, 45 miles above the river's mouth, at the Nore. The
population of London, including the whole metropolis, according to
the census of 1841, was 2,560,281 ; viz., within the walls, 54,626 ; with-
out the walls, 70.382; London and suburbs, 1,873,676; London and
Westminster, 347,061 ; South wark, 98,648; Lambeth, 115,886.
Regular Lines of Packets run from London to New York, the East
Indies, and other parts of the world, while a weekly communication by
Steamships is atforded between England and America by means of
American and British steamers, running direct from Southampton or
Liverpool to Boston, New York, the West India Islands, Mexico, and
Central America.
tl3= For further particulars see the various Maps, Guides, and
Pictures of London.
The Thames, one of the largest rivers of England, and, in a com-
meixial point of view, one of the most important in the world, rises
in Gloucestershire, being formed by the junction of the Isis, Lech,
Colne, and Churnet, rivulets which have their sources in the Cotswold
hills. The Tijame river, its principal tributary, flows into it in Ox-
fordshii'e, from which stream, and the Isis, it is supposed to have ob-
tained its name, Thame-isis, shortened to Thames. It is navigable for
small craft, following the windings of the river, 146 miles above Lon-
don, to Lechlade ; the tide flowing IS miles above London bridge to
Teddington, where there is a lock to aid navigation.
Though not a rapid, the Thames is by no means a sluggish river ; it
flows forward with an equable and steady current, and is remarkable
for the purity of its waters. .
" Though deep, yet clear ; though gentle, yet not dull ;
Strong without rage, without o'erflowing full."
But it is as a navigable and commercial river, having London on its
banks, and bearing on its bosom numberless steamers and ships, car-
rying an immense number of passengers, and fraught with the pro-
duce of every country and every climate, that the Thames is princi-
pally distinguished.
"WINUSOR,, situated on the south bank of the Thames, is dis"
tant 22 miles from London by the road through Brentford, Hounslow,
and Colnbrook. It possesses an ancient church, a tlieatre and two bar-
racks ; but the great attraction is Windsor Castle, the favorite resi-
dence of the Queen of England, having been the principal seat of
British royalty tor nearly eight centuries. The present castle was
founded by William the Conqueror, but was almost rebuilt by Edward
III. Great alterations were made durir.g the reign of George IV, The
interior of the castle is remarkably magnificent. The state rooms are
fitted up in a very superb style, and the different apartments are
adorned by a great number of paintings by the most eminent masters.
There are two beautiful parks, known as the Little Park, and the Great
Park, all of which atford great attractions.
EATON, opposite to Windsor, on the north side of the Thames,
is celebrated for its College, which was founded in 1440, by Henry VI.,
for the education of 70 scholars. Besides these, there are generally
several hundreds of the sons of the nobility and gentry receiving their
education.

MANCHESTER— Population 200,000— has been engaged in
manufactures since the reign of Henry VIII. At first woolens were
the chief article, but during the past century it has been exceeded, and,
indeed, almost superseded, by the cotton trade, which is carried on to
an extent without parallel. Silk manufactures have of late been intro-
duced, and an extensive business has been long carried on in hats, um-
brellas, and machinery. The town is so completely devoted to busi-
ness that it offers little other attraction, though the Collegiate Church is
a noble Gothic edifice, which, together with the Exchange; Town Hall,
and Botanic Garden will amply repay a visit.
HUIili— Population 62,000— formerly called Wykeupon-Hull, but
changed, by royal charter of Edward I., to Kingston-upon-Hull, is a
seaport of considerable magnitude, being most advantageously situated
on the estuary formed by the junction of the rivers Hull, Ouse, num-
ber and Trent. It is one of the principal mail packet stations in the
kingdom ; steamers regularly sailing for Antwerp, Rotterdam, Ham-
burg, Bremen, Copenhagen, and Jothenburg, besides sevei'al lines to
Yarmouth and London on the south, and Newcastle, Berwick, Edin-
burgh and Aberdeen on the North. It carries on a large foreign trade
— its imports being exceeded only by London, Liverpool, and Bristol —
and employs a large tonnage in the whale fishery, and in a trade witk
the Baltic, West Indies, and North and South America.
YORK, one of the few cities in England which is surrounded by
walls. It can trace its origin to a very remote period, its foundation
having been laid in the yealr 983 B. C. It is the seat of an archbishop-
ric, and York Minster, its cathedral, is the finest Gothic building in
Europe, of its kind. Founded by Edwin, the Saxon kingof Northum-
bria, in 626, it has been enlarged and repaired by successive genera-
tions. In 1829 a maniac, seeking an ignoble fame, set it on fire, caus-
ing considerable damage, and it again suffered from fire in 1840.

IiEEDS, containing a population of 155,000, ranks as the fifth
town in England in point of numbers and commercial enterprise, and
is the chief seat of the woolen manufactures ; in addition to which it
manufactures large quantities of earthenware and plate glass. Its
communication with all sections of the kingdom— by railways with
London, with Hull and the eastern coast, by the Aire, which falls into
the Humber, and with Liverpool and the western coast by tlie Leeds
and Liverpool canal, and railways— render its situation highly advan-
tageous.

SHEFFIELD ^BRISTOL. 161
SHE PFIEIjD— Population 75,000— is situated at the conflu-
ence of the Don and Sheaf, and except at one outlet is surrounded by
an amphitheatre of hills, affording a remarkable beauty and variety of
prospect. The abundance of water-power and mineral wealth fa the
vicinity has caused manufactures to spring up and flourish, and it has
become the emporium of cutlery in all its branches. Silver and
plated goods, Britannia metal and German silver ware, also form
staple articles of its products. Brass foundries are numerous, and op-
tical instruments, buttons, brushes and combs are made on a large
scale.
WINCHESTER, which under the Saxon monarchs was the
capital of the kingdom, contains many most interesting monuments.
During the reign of the Norman dynasty it was the royal residence.
Here Henry VHI. entertained Charles V. in 1552, and during tha reign
of the first Charles, it was the scene of many a bloody fray — Crom-
well, on one occasion, stabling his cavalry horses in the Cathedral, de-
molishing the monuments and bishop's palace, and committing vari-
ous excesses. It is of very remote origin and was called by the Britons,
Caer Gwent ; by the Romans, Venta; and by the Saxons, Wintancaes-
ter. The Cathedral and Wykeham's College, are very interesting
buildings, and the venerable appearance of the city is peculiarly at-
tractive to strangers. Population 11,000.
CANTERBURY, the Metropolitan See of all England, will well
repay a visit ; its cathedral being very magnificent, and containing the
shrine of St. Thomas a Becket, and other curiosities ; beneath it is a
church for French Protestants, a colony of Huguenots having settled
here after the revocation of the edict of Nantes.
OXFORD— Population 24,000— famous for being the seat of one
of the most celebrated universities in the world, is situated at the
junction of the Isis with the Chervvell, and here takes the name of
Thames. Its origin, like that of its university, is involved in obscurity;
the first authentic trace of the former, however, being found in the
reign of Alfred, and the earliest charier of the latter being dated in the
28th year of the reign of Henry III. It has frequently been the resi-
dence of the English monarchs and the scene of many eventful actions
in the nation's history. The university contains nineteen colleges and
five halls, of which University College is the most ancient, claiming to
have been founded by Alfred, in 872. Besides the colleges it contains
many public buildings worthy of attention, viz._: the Bodleian and Rad-
cliffe's Libraries, tiie University Theatre, designed by Sir C. Wren,
the Ashmolean Museum and Radcliffe Observatory, &c.
BRISTOL, which at the close of the eighteenth century ranked
as a seaport next to London, has been outstripped by Liverpool, and
now occupies the third place ; it carries on a considerable trade with
the West Indies, United Srates, South America, Canada, Newfound-
land, Spain and Ireland, besides a very extensive inland trade with
Wales and the Western Counties. It was formerly so extensively en-
gaged in the slave trade, that Burke indignantly exclaimed that " no two
bricks in the city were cemented together, which were not moistened
by negroes' blood." Its population amounted in 1841 to 140,158, includ-
ing CUfton, a suburb beautifully situated on the high and precipitous
banks of the Avon, and a most healthful and invigorating resort for
invalids. Extensive manufactures flourish in the city and suburbs
principally consisting of soap, glass, anchors, earthenware, miuerah,
soda works, drugs, colors, and British spirits and malt liquors.

BATH, a city of Somersetshire, 107 miles from London, is noted
for the beauty of its buildings ; it is, perhaps, the best built city in Eng-
land, the houses being principally of stone, and is the favorite resi-
dence of many fashionable and wealthy families. It is resorted to by
iiiTalids and hypochondriacs owing to the celebrity of its medicinal
springs ; although many are attracted thither by the beauty of the
surrounding scenery and the stream of fashion, in pursuit of pleasure
as well as health. For these the numerous horels and public houses
aflFord ample accommodation— population 38,000.

164 EUROPEAN GUIDE.
PLYMOUTH is one of the principal naval stations in the king-
dom, and the harbor is capable of containing a thousand sail. The
breakwater, one of the most stupendous works of modern times, is
about a mile long at the base, and the top aifords a delightful prome-
nade. Plymouth has a large trade with the West Indies, the Baltic
and the Mediterranean, and coastwise with London, Hull, Bristol, Liver-
pool, Glasgow and Ireland — population 36,527. The dockyard at
Devonport or Plymouth Dock is one of the finest in the world, com-
prising an area of over 70 acres, and is defended by a citadel and
fortification.
PORTSMOUTH, the chief naval arsenal and dockyard iu
England, and the head-quarters of the British fleets, since the reign of
John, is situated on an island, named Portsea, about 15 miles in cir-
cumference. The entrance to the harbor is very narrow, but suf-
ficiently deep to admit the largest vessels, and the channel and ap-
proaches to tlie harbor are commanded by batteriesof immense power.
Within, the harbor expands to a wide basin, on one side of \vnich is
situated Portsmouth, and on the other Gosport, a town containing
about 14,000 inhabitants. The dockyard is on a vast scale, inclosing
120 acres, and containing machinery, stores, artillery, &c., necessary
for the equipment and con.struction of every class of vessels, and is
defended by fortifications deemed impregnable. Strangers are freely
admitted to inspect the dockyard, without any formal introduction.
Portsmouth, with its suburb, Portsea, contains a population of 55,000,
and is connected with Gosport by a floating bridge, which plies across
the harbor every half hour, the passage occupying about 10 minutes.
SOUTHAMPTON— Population 30,000— though of Saxon ori-
gin, has only of late years become a port of magnitude ; previous to
the construction of the S nuh Western Railway, its commerce was
principally confined to tiie ciiannel islands, the northern ports of
France, and the importation of Port wine and spirits. Now, however,
it is a most impoitant Foreign Packet Station, and its situation being
not only beautiful in point of natural scenery, but peculiarly adapted
to commerce from the excellence of its harbor, it will no doubt rise to
a high state of prosperity. Since the recent formation of the capa-
cious docks the largest class of vessels frequent the port, and it carries
on an extensive trade with the Baltic, United States, Canada, and the
West Indies. About 2000 vessels annually enter the poi't. The Bre-
men and Havre Lines of steamships to New York call at this port semi-
monthly, and it is the station whence depart all the Mail Steamers for
the West Indies, the Peninsular, Malta, Alexandria, and the overland
communication with India and China, which route it is in contempla-
tion to extend to New South Wales and New Zealand. Southampton
may in fact "be considered the outport of London, from whence Steam
Packets run to almost every quarter of the globe. The vicinity is full
of picturesque beauties, the chief of which is Netley Abbey, only 3
miles distant ; and it is the most convenient point from which to
visit the New Forest and Isle of Wight, which both oflfer beauties
no stranger should neglect to see.
HASTINGS is a celebrated watering place of extreme beauty
and great antiquity ; it contains assembly rooms, a theatre, libraries
and excellent bathmg accommodations. Its vicinity abounds in ro-
mantic scenery and interesting objects of antiquity connected with the
Norman conquest. The town is particularly neat and clean, and the
influx of visitors during warm weather is very large, fashionable and
aristocratic.

CAMBRIDGE is a town of considerable antiquity, mentioned
in the Domesday Book under the name of " Grentebridge", derived
from the Roman name for the river Cam, Granta. Its University,
consisting of seventeen halls and colleges, forms its principal attrac-
tion. Trinity College and King's College, are the most remarkable,
the chapel attached to the latter being one of the most perfect speci-
mens of Anglo-Gothic architecture. The Senate House, Fitzvvilliam
Museum, and Pitt Press, are handsome buildings; and the Botanic
Garden is well worthy of inspection. This University has sent forth
many of the most celebrated mathematicians ; mathematical scienco
being its distinguishing feature, while classical literature is the pecu-
liar boast of Oxfoi'd. Tiie number of members on the books of the
various Colleses is nearly 5,500. Population, 24,500.
NORWICH is the seal of a considerable manufacture of silk
and worsted shawls, crapes, &c., and from a village in its vicinity,
named Worsted, formerly of some importance as a manufacturing
town, is derived the term '' worsted goods." The city is of very great
antiquity, and the antiquary will find a rich treat in inspecting the
Castle, Cathedral, and Erpingham's Gate.
YARMOUTH, containing a population of 32,000, besides beinff
a seaport of much importance, carrying on a large trade with the Bal-
tic, carries on an extensive ship building business, and manufacture of
Bilks and crapes ; but the principal business is the herring and mack-
erel fisheries ; 360,000 barrels of cured fish having been sent by railway
alone in 1847. Steamers ply regularly between this port and London
and Hull, besides a weekly line to Rotterdam.
RA.M'SGATE and MARGATE are greatly resorted to du,
ring the summer season by the good citizens of London, as watering-
places, containing excellent hotels, assembly rooms, bazaars and other
places of amusement ; it may be added, however, that they are more

DOVER, is beautifully situated in a valley, surrounded by an am-
phitheatre of chalk hills — on the eastern point of which is erected
the ancient Castle, the walls of which inclose an area of 35 acres,
and being 320 feet in perpendicular height above the sea, the appear-
ance is very imposing. On the south-west of the harbor, which has
been formed artificially at great expense, is Shakspeare's Cliff, the
name being derived from the supposition of its having suggested
the well-known description in the fourth act of King Lear. It is now
tunnelled through by the railway, and portions of the summit have
fallen at various times, so that it no longer overhangs "the deep."
BRIGHTON is one of the most popular watering-places in the
kingdom, and was for a long series of years the resort of George
IV., who erected here a Marine Pavilion, which, though costly and
elegant in its interior arrangements, was the laughing-stock of all be-
holders of its exterior. The town is full of fashionable buildings and
hotels, replete with attractions for visitors, and the Steyne and Chain
piers afford most delightful promenades. In consequence of Royalty
having deserted the Marine Pavilion, Brighton is less fashionable than
in days of yore, but it still attracts a large number of visitors, being
well supplied with every accommodation for sea-bathing.
HOLYHEAD has become important chiefly in consequence of
being the most convenient point of embarkation for Ireland, the voy-
age being made by tiie Mail Packets in 3| hours ; and the whole dis-
tance between London and Dublin is traversed within 14 hours ; the
railroad, however, between Holyhead and Chester, has attracted an
unprecedented attention from the erection of the stupendous tubular
bridges across the Menai Strait and river Conway, the most surprising
aad triumphant efforts of engineering skill.
RAILWAY ROUTES DUBLIN. 167
DUBLIN, the principal city and seaport of Ireland, is advan-
tageously situatsd on the east coast of the island, at the mouth of the
river Litfey, which here enters Dublin Bay, communicating with St.
George's Channel, or the Irish Sea. It is distant, by water, 133 miles
due west from Liverpool, and 60 miles west fiom Holyhead ; being 293
miles W. N. W. from London. Population about 260,000 This is a
beautiful city, and the favorite residence of many fashionable families.
The habits of the higher and middle classes are social to a degree often
bordering on profusion. A love of convivial enjoyments pervades all
ranks, which is the national characteristic of the well-educated Irish
people.
The figure of the city is elliptical, its largest axis extending along the
line of the river, from west to east, two and a half miles ; its shorter,
from north to south, nearly two miles. Sackville street, on the north
side, i« remarkable for its gi-eat width and for its fine buildings. Dub-
lin boasts of several statues and monuments, as well as its public
buildings, many of which are handsome specimens of architecture.
Dublin Castle stands at the east verge of the hill upon which the city
was primarily built. It. was originally a square foi'tress, with towers
at the angles ; it now consists of a quadrangle, 280 feet by 130, sur-
rounded with buildings containing the royal state apartments, and ac-
commodations for public functionaries of the United Kingdom.

gers. and every facility is given them for departure. The Passport-
office is at the Station, and there is a good refreshment room also.
The steam-boats can enter and leave Calais except for about 1^ hour
before and after low water. The French mail boat leaves Dover at 24

the Y, form a scene of much interest. Population 21-2,000.
NAVIGATION OF THE RHINE. 183
The great ship canal, the most stupendous undertaking of the kind
ever executed, commences opposite Amsterdam, and extends to Helder
find the Texcl, a distance of 60 miles. It required six years, and 13
tnillion guilders to complete it.
Conveyances. — Railway Trains to Haarlem, Leyden, the Hague and
ilotterdam, as also to Utrecht and Arnheim, connecting with Steamers
on the Rhine running to Cologne. &c. The Railway terminus to Haar-
lem, Leyden. the Hague, and Rotterdam, is outside the Haarlem Gate ;
that to Utrecht and Arnheim outside the Weesp Gate. Diligences
start several times daily to Groningen. Steamers to Hamburgh, six
times a month, from April until November. Fares 44 guilders. A
Steamer runs two or three times a day to Zaardam in about one hour.
Utreclit, — Distance from Amsterdam 23 miles by Railway. The
scenery consists of villages and gardens. Utrecht contains 50,000 in-
habitants. The cathedral tower. 321 feet high, commands an extensive
view. The Mint, University and Museums, are the remaining attrac-
tions. An omnibus to Vreeswyck, to meet the Rhine steamers, leaves
daily, and accomplishes the distance in one hour.
Arnlieim, — Situated on the Rhine, 55 miles from Amsterdam, is
the chief town of Guelderland. Population 15,000.
Steamers run daily from Arnheim to Cologne and to Rotterdam.
There are diligences four times daily to Nymegen, and also to Dussel-
dorf (in twelve hours), from which place Cologne can be reached by
Railway in one hour.
Holland. — On arriving in Holland travelers will observe the per-
fect system of canal inter-communication, forming not only the high
roads but almost the streets ; also the numerous and stupendous dykes
or levees, (the annual repair of which costs about £500,000). The
number of windmills, also, presents a picturesque and curious feature
in the landscape. Holland presents the picture of an industrious
people, owing not only their great wealth and high commercial posi-
tion but even the very land to their own labor and enterprise.
NAVIGATION OF THE EHINE.
There are three Companies of Steamers navigating the Rhine, viz. :
the Dusseldorf Company, which may be distinguished by having the
funnels of their vessels marked with black and white stripes ; the
Cologne Company, distinguished by their black funnels ; the Nether-
lands Company, by having the funnels painted half black and half
white ; the Cologne Company's boats do not go lower down the stream
than Arnheim. Passengers proceeding further are taken by the
Netherland Company's boats. The Steamers are divided into three
cabins — the Pavilion, the Chief Cabin, and the Fore Cabin. Refresh-
ments are provided on board at a moderate rate, iixed by a printed
tariff". In going up or down the Rhine, in the river boats, if a person
wishes, or has necessity, to travel with economy, he may take a second
class ticket, and dine at the table d'hote in the main cabin by paying
the difference of fare between the two places for such time as he is at
dinner ; or, in other words, he will jiay 3s. instead of 2s. for his dinner ;
they permit this when not too crowded. The quickest boats go in one
day down the Rhine, from Mannheim to Cologne and Dusseldorf ;
Mayence to Dusseldorf ; Dusseldorf to Rotterdam. Up the stream ia

In addition to the above stations, there are 33 small towns and 21
landing-places at which the Steamers touch, some of them being the
most picturesque points on the Rhine. At any of them, without ex-
ception, the tourist may land, and continue his journey when he
pleases, up or down the river, by any of the Company's Steamers : he
has only to take care to have his Ticket marked by the Conductor of
the boat before leaving it. For landing or embarking at any of these
points the charge is three halfpence.
Scenery of tlie Rliiuc. — Below Bonn, in the direction of
Cologne, or above Mayence, there is scarcely any object striking
enough to merit admiration. About 20 miles above Cologne the
Bcenery of the Rhine may be said to begin with the Seven Mountains,
and thence to Coblentz ;'and from Coblentz to Mayence the turreted
towns, castellated ruins, and vine-terraced hills, succeed each other in
picturesque profusion. The most api>ropriate starting places to eX'
plore the inland glories of the Rhine are Bonn, Godesberg. Coblentz,
St. Goar, Bingen and Mayence. We trace in the elevated Alps, in
Switzerland, and near Mount St. Gothard, the sources of the Rhone,
the Tessin, and the Rhine, or the king of the German — nay, of the West
European Rivers. The visitor, on ascending the Rhine, or on his ar-
rival at Strasbourg, calls to his recollection how this stream has
hastened his course through the Lakes of Constance and Zellern ; how
he precipitated himself over the rocky ramparts at Schafl'hausen, then,
strengthened by the collected waters of Switzerland— the influx of 370
glaciers and upwards of 2700 streams of various sizes — he commences
his majestic course near the ancient Roman city of Basle ; how he ex-
pands between the upper Black Forest, amidst ranges of mountains en-
circling a valley of nearly 30 miles in breadth, through which he play-
fully winds, and receiving, besides other streams, the important
Neckar and Maine, until a rocky gate at Bingen seems to arrest his
further career, but which he powerfully bursts, and strengthened by
the Nahe and Moselle, overcome a similar obstacle at Andernach,
when he continues his victorious course towards the sea.
For further description of Cities. &c., on the Rhine. See Bradshaw^s
Continental Railway Guide
Frankfort-on-tlie-Malne, — A free town, with about 60.000 inha-
bitants, and seat of the German Diet, boasts of several well-kept hotels.
Amid a great variety of objects to interest the traveler in this place
may be mentioned, as worthy of inspection, the Hotel de Ville
(Roemer). with a large Saloon, containing portraits of all the German
Emperors who were formerly crowned in this city ; the Monument of
Goethe, in the square before the theatre, and the new Cemetrj-. with
several beautiful monuments. In the vicinity, the Mainlust, with a beau-
tiful distant prospect of mountain, crowned with towers and castles.

Note. — The distances are in English miles, five of which are equal
to one Prussian mile, show the length of the journey by water, which
differs bat little from tliat by land. Between any two points of the
river, the voyage descending is performed in about half the time of that
ascending, owing to the current in the stream.

HOTELS IN PARIS.
{From Bradshaw^s Continental Railway Guide.)
There are a great many hotels in Paris, some magnificent in appear-
ance, but dear and uncomfortable : others cheap, but questionable.
The following are carefully selected as deserving recommendation : —
Hotel Bedford, 11, Place de 1' Arcade, near the Madeleine, excel-
lent in every respect.
Hotel de JVoi'mandie, 240, Rue St. Honore, good and moderate.
Hotel de Ijille et Albion, 323. Rue St. Honore, a well-con-
ducted, good house.
Hotel Folkestone, 9, Rue Castellane, very comfortable and
charges moderate.
Grand Hotel de Liondres, 5, Rue Castiglione, one of the finest
and richest hotels in Paris.
Hotel des Etrangers, 3, Rue Vivienne, very comfortable and
reasonable.
Grand Hotel de I^yon, 12, Rue des Filles St. Thomas, the first
opening into the Rue Richelieu, very comfortable and reasonable.
Restaurant. — British Tavern, (Tavern Britannique), Rue Riche-
lieu, 104, near the Boulevard. This restaurant commands a greater as-
semblage of persons of distinction of all nations than is to be found in
any other restaurant in Paris. The elegance of the establishment, its
excellent cellar of wines, and its pure English cookery, constitute its
recommendation.
CUSTOM-HOUSE REGULATIONS.
Passengers going from Paris to England, will be allowed to take
with them any quantity of spirits less than a pint, and a half pint of
Eau de Cologne, free of duty. Travelers, however, should bear in
mind, that if articles liable to duty are contained among their luggage,
they must make declaration of such at the French or English Custom-
house. Letters for posting found among passengers' baggage at the
French or English Custom-houses, subject the sender and bearer to
penal consequences at the instance of the authories of both countries,

PARIS, the Metropolis of France, being the next European city
to London, in magnitude and importance, is situated on both sides of
the Seine, about 110 miles, in a direct distance, from its mouth ; being
about 210 miles S. S. E. from London, and 159 miles S. S. W. from
Brussels. Population about 1,000,000. The city stands in a plain, sur-
rounded on several sides, but especially N. and N. E., by considerable
eminences.
Paris, like London, is advantageously situated on both sides of a con-
siderable river, dividing it into two parts, of which the largest is on the
north side : the most ancient part of the city being, however, confined
to the small islands within the channel of the river. Many of the finest
streets run parallel to the Seine, and the open space, or quays, along
its banks, present an agreeable and lively appearance. A few of the
streets, more recently laid out, are wide, and lined on both sides with
trottoirs ; but, generally speaking, the streets are narrower and less
regular than those of the British metropolis.
For a further description see Maps, Guides, and Picturbs of
Paris.

AMIENS DIEPPE. 189
The SEINE, the most important river of France, though not the
largest, rises in the department and mountain chain of the lote d'Or.
In its course it receives several considerable tributaries from the N. E.
and the S. and VV. Besides Paris several large and flourishing commer-
cial cities and manufacturing towns are located on the banks of this
river; and at its mouth is Havi-e, which, Marseilles excepted, is the
most important commercial port of France.
AMIENS, 37 leagues north from Paris, is an ancient fortified city,
handsomely situated on the river Somme, which is navigable here for
vessels of considerable burden. Population 47,000. The town is well
built, and being intersected by canals, resembles some of the Dutch
cities. The ramparts, which surround it, furnish a beautiful walk,
and in the neighborhood there are delightful promenades. This place
is noted in history lor the Treaty of Peace concluded here in 1802, be-
tween England and France. There are also several objects of attrac-
tion in the city, well worthy the notice of the traveller, particularly
the cathedral, of which the nave is considered a master-piece of archi-
tecture.
The Boulogne and Amiens Railway, 76 miles in length, extends
from this place to Boulogne, forming a link in the great line of travel
between London and Paris. A railway also runs through Amiens, ex-
tending from Paris to Arras and Lille, connecting with lines of rail-
ways running to different parts of France and Belgium,
ARRAS, 54 leagues north of Paris, by railway, is a place of con*
siderable trade and importance, being situated on the river Scarpe?
which divides it, and is here joined by the Crinchon. Population
24,000. The town is built partly on an eminence, and partly on the
plain, and consists of four distinct divisions — the City, the Upper
Town and the Lower Town, and the Citadel.
The Railway extending to Douay, Lille, Brussels, &c.,runs through
this place, forming the Great Northern Line of travel through France
to Belgium.
BOUIiOGNE, 167 miles north of Paris, by railway, is one of the
chief ports of France, situated on the English Channel, opposite Folke-
stone, with which it is connected by a daily line of steamers. It is a
favorite watering-place, being much resoi-ted to during warm weather
by visitors from England and different parts of the continent. The
Upper Town, on a hill, is surrounded by ramparts ; the Lower Town
is on the port, and contains the hotels and chief part of the population,
amounting altogether to about 31,000. The streets are generally clean
and wide, and have an animated appearance. A fine sandy beach ex-
tends eastward of the port, affording a delightful place for sea-bathing.
C AliAIS, situated on the English Channel, opposite Dover, has a
good and commodious harbor, which steamers can enter at all hours,
without regard to tide. Population about 12,000. The railway run-
ning from this place to Lille affords a speedy mode of conveyance to
Paris as well as to Brussels and other parts of Belgium.
13IEPPB, a watering-place of France, is favorably situated on
the English Channel, opposite Brighton. Population 17,000 The
port is spacious, and is commanded by a citadel and castle. The
principal inducement Dieppe presents for the temporary sojourn of
strangers is the bathing, this being the nearest sea-bathing establish-
ment to Paris. The route between London and Paris, via Brighton
190 EUROPEAN GUIDE.
and Dieppe, is the most direct, but the sea passage being of five or six
hours' duration, the communication is much less frequent than across
the narrower part of the channel, and in winter is altogether inter-
rupted.
HAVllE, 141 miles north-west of Paris, by railway route, is one
of the most important maritime towns of France, being favorably situ-
ated at the mouth of the Seine, with ready access to the capital by the
river and railway. It posscsse-s one of the finest ports of Frauce, ad-
mitting tlie largest vessels regularly communicating with England and
other ports of Europe, as well as with America. Population 32,000.
Numerous steamers and sailing-vessels run from Havre, coastwise and
inland, this being the principal outport for Paris. The river scenery
between Havre and Rouen is of the most interesting description,
especially near QuillebcBuf, which induces many to proceed thus far
toward Paris by water.
ROUEN, 82 miles from Paris, and 59 miles from Havre, by rail-
way, is one of the principal cities of France, having a population of
about 100,000. It is favorably situated on the north bank of the Seine,
which is navigable to this place for vessels of 200 tons burthen. Steam-
ers of a large class run between Ilouen and Havre, while vessels of a
smaller class ascend the river to Paris. Its numerous spires and
towers, and the vessels that throng its quays, give it a very imposing
external ap{)earance. Generally, however, it is rather ill built, the
streets being mostly narrow, crooked, and dirty. By far the most cel-
ebrated and striking public edifice is the Cathedral, one of the noblest
structures in France, or even in Europe.
DUNKIRK;, situated on the north coast of Fi'ance, is an antique
seapoi-t town, very quiet and j)icturesque, with a population of 23,000.
By means of the branch of the Northern Railway, now open to this
town, Lille, Ostend, Brussels, Antwerp, Paris, &c., are easily acces-
sible.
DOUAY, situated on the river Scarpe, is a large and handsome
city, of very remote origin. It is connected with Paris by the North-
ern Railway, 378 kilometres in length, which at this point divides
into two branches, the one proceeding to join the Belgian railways by
Lille and Mouscron, the other by Valenciennes and Quirerain.
IjIIjIjE, situated on the river Deuie, in the north of France, is a
large and fine city, having a population of 72,000. It is connected with
Paris by means of the Northern Railway of France, also by canal with
the sea. The streets are wide and well formed ; the houses are con-
structed mostly in the modern style, and well built.
VALENCIENNES, is a town of considerable trade and
wealth, also strongly fortified by its position on the Scheldt, at its con-
fluence with the Rliendelle. The city is generally well built, the
houses being mostly constructed of brick and white stone. Popula-
tion 22,000. A railway runs through this place, affording a speedy
mode of conveyance to Brussels on the north, and Paris on the south.

Nancy. — 220 English miles from Paris, and 92^ from Strasbourg, is
the Capital of the Department of Meurthe, on the river of that name.
Population, 3-2.000. It is divided into the old and new towns ; the lat-
ter being by far the largest, as well as more handsome part of the
town. The gates of Nancy are particularly fine. The royal square,
built by Stanislaus, is surrounded by an iron railing, and by some of
the finest l)uildings in the city. Besides the old and new town, Nancy
has two well built suburbs. There are several fine public buildings,
most of which are situated in the new town. Thei'e are no manufac-
tures of consequence, except woollen and linen fabrics.
Strasbourg. — A strongly fortified town on the French frontier.
Population, 60,UOO. It is favorably situated for commerce, the Rhine
connecting it with Switzerland, Holland, and Belgium. Its chief ex-
fiorts ai'e corn, flax, hemp, wine and spirits ; linen, carpets, hardware,
eather, cotton, tobacco and snuff. Steamers descend the PJiine from
Strasbourg to Mayence, 150 miles, dailj-, performing the voyage in ten
hours. The ascent of the Rhine from Mayence to Strasbourg requires,
on the contrary, about double the above time. The spire of Stras-

bourg Cathedral rises 474 feet above the pavement, being 112 feet higher
than St. Paul's, and 24 feet higher than the great p3-raniid. It is con-
sidered a master-piece of architecture, being built of hewn stone.
Strasbourg claims the honor of the discovery of the Art of Printing, by
Outtenburg. in 1436. A railway runs from Strasbourg to Basle ; also,
to Baden, Mannheim, and Frankfort.
Basel, or Basle, is advantageously situated at the north-west cor
ner of Switzerland, on the Rhine, at the point where it verges north-
ward and on the north side of the Jura Mountain ; the sulrounding
country being made up of several fertile valleys, bordered by moun-
tains covered with excellent pasturage. It is the Capital of one of the
States, with a population of 50,000. It is a well-built and large citj-,
consisting of two towns, divided by the Rhine, which is here spanned
by a magnificent bridge. Here are many objects worthy of visiting,
the principal of which are the Cathedral, built in the Gothic style of
architecture. The Mansion House, in which is the hall where the
famous Ecclesiastical Council was held, in the fifteenth century ; the
Arsenal, &c. Basel is the seat of a University, and a number of other
Scientific Institutions ; its inhabitants are also remarkable for their
intelligence and industry.
Railway Trains aftbrd a speedy communication with Strasbourg,
Baden, Mannheim, and Frankfort, while Diligences run to Berne, Gen-
eva, Zurich, and other parts of Switzerland.
There is now only one railway in Switzerland, from Zurich to Baden,
a watering place. Diligences, generally belonging to the government^
and carrying the mail, traverse all the chief roads; the fare is however
high, and three or four travelling together, will find it more convenient
to hire a private conveyance. Steamers navigate all the principal
lakes, — aflbrding, during warm weather, most delightful and romantic
excursions.

surrounded by an extensive and beautiful terraced promenade. A rail-
road extends from this place to Bordeaux, running through Libourne,
61 miles distant.
Bordeaux. — The second seaport of France, situated on the south
bank of the Garonne, 55 miles from its mouth, has a population of
above 130,000. This city has nearly 1,000 merchant vessels, and ex-
ports annually more than 100,000 hogsheads of wine, and i0,000 of
French brandy ; also large quantities of vinegar, dried fruits, hams,

Time. 6J hours. Fares. 8 fr. and 6 fr.
LYONS TO AVIGNON AND MARSEILLES.
Steamers running on the Rhone, run daily between Lyons and
Avignon, connecting with Trains of Cars running on the Marseilles
and Avignon Railway, 77 miles in length.
FontaiiiWeau, — 36^ miles from Paris, may be reached by rail or per
steam from the Quay de Greve, Paris. The Palace, with its library and
garden, the Town Hall, and two Hospitals, and the Forest are well
worthy of a visit.
I>ljoti. — 196^ miles from Paris, and 123 north of Lyons, contains a
population of .35,000. It is an ancient and well built cit}'. the chief
town in the Department of the Lcte d' Or, and formerly the Capital of
Burgundy ; situated between the rivers Ouche and Suron, and on the
canal of iiurgoyne. The .streets are regular and well paved, and the
houses in general neat and commodious. It has four line Churches,
and also a University, deservedly celebrated.
CIia,Ioii!5-swr"=Saone.— A neat town, 239 miles south-cast of Paris,
contaiiitng about 12,500 inhabitants. It is pleasantly situated on the
banks of tlie Saone. which is here nr.vigablc. Several steamers descend
the Saonc daily to Lyons, making the trij) in six or seven hours. The
descent to Lyons is through a succession of meadow-lands, orchards
and vinej-ard.s. In the town are large beet root sugar manufactories,
breweries, flour mills, and iron steamship building yards. A railway
extends from Chalons to Dijon and Paris, and when the Saone is not
navigable, Diligences run daily to Lyons.
LYONS SWITZERLAND. 195
liyons, the chief manufacturing city of France, contains a popula-
tion, including the suburbs, of -220,000. It is advantageously situated
at the junction of the two great rivers tiie Saone and the Rlione, 200
miles north-west of Marseilles, and 326 miles south-east of Paris. The
rivers are lined with wharves, and resound with the hum of mills and
water-woiks. The commerce and manufactures of Lyons are very
extensive, consisting chiefly of silks, woollens and cotton stuff's,
fihawls, crape, gold and silver lace, &c. Within the walls of tlie city
there are several thousand establishments alone for the manufacture
of silk, employing near -20,000 looms. The squares and public build-
ings of Lyons are numerous and well worthy the attention of
strangers.
The descent of the Saone from Chalons to Lyons, and of the Ilhone
from the latter cit_y. in many respects resemble the Rhine. In fine
weather the country appears to great advantage, and it may be
doubted whether the scenery is not equal to the Rhine, or any rivers
on the Continent. The cities on the banks of the Rhine are, generally
speaking, of very remote antiquity. Ruins of ancient castles and
fortresses frequently occur, whilst the bon vivant is gratified by obser-
ving, as he ]iasses, the vineyards which produce Lote Roti, Hermitage
and other choice wines.
Avignon. — The chief city of the Department of the Vaucluse, on the
Rhine, containing about 32,000 inhabitants ; also many churches and
sacred buildiugs, the most attractive perhaps, is the old Palace of the
Popes, now used as barracks.
Marseilles. — The chief port of France on the Mediterranean, and
Steam Packet Station for Italy, the Peninsular, and the East, has a popu-
lation of about 200.000. The ports of Marseilles afford accommodation
to nearly 2,000 vessels, of all classes. The city was founded 600 years
before the Christian era, by a colony of Phoenicians. Marseilles is con-
sidered by many as one of the finest cities of France ; the various ap-
proaches to it are beautiful, being lined with trees and well built
houses. The city itself is composed of the old and new towns, tho
latter especially being elegantly built. The manufactures consist
chiefly of tobacco, printed goods, hats, glass, porcelain, china,
soap, &c.
Marseilles is a naval station, and the great depot for steamships run-
ning to the different ports on the Mediterranean, to Havre, Southamp-
ton, &c.

SWITZERL.ANI?, or the Alpine country, the favorite resort of
travelers in the pursuit of health or pleasure, has been divided by
naturalists into seven regions, each successively rising above the
other — the first, or lowest of which, terminates at the height of 1,700
feet above the level of the sea ; the second, or region of oaks, reaches
the height of 2,800 feet, and is succeeded by the region of the birch,
which rises to 4.000 feet. The higher Alpine regions commence at an
elevation of 6,500 feet ; and above 8,000 feet is the region of glaciers
and of eternal snows. Along the chain of the Aljis. from Mount Blanc
to the frontiers of Tyrol, there are reckoned to be above 4.000 glaciers,
many of which are 18 or 21 miles long, 1^ to 2^ miles wide, and from
100 to 600 feet thick. Altogether, the glaciers of Switzerland are pre-
sumed to form a sea of ice more than 1,000 miles in extent ; and from
its inexhaustible sources flow the waters of some of the principal rivers
in Europe. Switzerland is also intersected by mountains, the greater
196 LONDON TO ITALY.
l>3rt of which are ramifications of the Alps, whilst the remainder
belong to the chain of Jura. From Mount St. Gothard — the central
Alps — extend tvvo ranges, which form a mass of the highest mountains
in Euro[)e. The snows accumulated on the top of the Alps are contin-
ually falling down their precij)itous sides into the lower regions, where
they often produce serious injury. The chain of Jura presents to the
eye of the traveler a deep contrast to that of the Alps. It stretches in
parallel ridges for about -240 miles along the western and north-western
frontiers of Switzerland, from the bend of the Rhone, below Geneva, at
the banks of the Rhine, eastward of Basel, and is clothed from top to
bottom with luxurant pine forests.
Switzerland is also pre-eminently a land of lakes, the principal of
which are the Lake of Constance, the Lake of Geneva, or Lake Leman,
the Lake of Zurich, the Lake of Lucerne, and the Lake of Neuchatel,
with some minor ones.
This most delightful and healthy region of country is easily and
speedily reached by railways running through France, Belgium, and
Prussia, in connection with steamers on the far-famed Rhine. The
Paris and Strasbourg Railroad, in connection with the railroad from
Strasbourg to Basle, forms the most speedy and direct routefrom London
or Paris.
Ijondon to "Vienna and Trieste.— The most speedy route
from London to Berlin. Leipsig, Dresden, Prague, Vienna, Trieste, and
the centre of Germany, is to proceed from London to Dover by the 8|
p. m. train, reaching Dover at 11| p. m., embark immediately, arriving
in Ostend in time for the 7.15 mail a. m. train, (or by way of Calais,
joining at Malines.) and arriving at Cologne at 6 the same evening.
Leave Cologne at 10 the same night, arrive at Leipsic at 3 30 p.m..
Dresden 8.30 p. ji., Prague at 4 a. m., Vienna at ''T.SO p. m.. and at
Trieste at 4.30 a.m. Time occupied— London to Berlin, 43| hours ; to
Trieste, 10-2i Lcurs.
* Vienna may be reached, via Breslau, but the journey occupies ten
hours longer.
NAVIGATION OF THE DANUBE.
steamers descend the Danube from Regensburg (llatisbon) to Passau
and Linz, in one day. From Linz to Vienna, in about twelve hours.
From Vienna to Galaz and Constantinople, in about ten days. The as-
cei..i, takes much longer time. Portions of the Danube hae been
CO -sidered by some superior to the PJiine.
LONDON TO ITALY.
A Railway communication being now established between Paris
and Chalons, travelers may proceed, by rail and steam, all the way
from London to Florence, viz-. — London to Dover or Folkestone, rail ;
Folkestone to Boulogne, steamboat ; Boulogne to Paris and Chalons,
rail : steam down the Soane to Lyons, and down the Rhone to Avignon;
from thence to Marseilles, by rail ; from Marseilles, steamboat to Leg-
horn, and rail to Florence. Persons i)referring a land journey to Italy
instead of taking the boat at Marseilles, should proceed thence by dili
gence to Toulon, Frejus, Antibes, Nice, and along the coast of the
Mediterranean to Genoa and Lucca. This route jiresents a magnificent
scenery of wood and water, intersected by very fine roads.
ITALY SICILY. 197
At Lyons, the traveler may proceed by diligence through Chambery
over Mount Lenis to Turin ; from which place he may take the rail-
way to Allesandria and Arquito. From the latter place he can go by
diligence to Genoa.
Tiie route from Toulon to Italy through Switzerland is another
favorite line of travel, attbrding views of the most magnificent scenery.
ITAIjY, the favorite resort of intelligent travellers, forms a long
narrow peninsula, extending from North-West to South-East, the
greatest length of which measures about 695 or 700 miles, from
the sources of the River Toza to Cape Cimiti, in Calabria; or Cape
Lucca in Otranto. The breadth is various ; its northerly measurement,
from the western border of Savoy to the eastern border of Friuli, being
365 miles ; about 275 miles from Mount Genevre to the mouth of the Po,
through the middle of Lombardy ; 105 miles from the coast of Lucca to
the coast of Ravenna ; 156 miles from Piombino to Ancona ; 98 from the
Gulf of Naples to the Gulf of Manfredonia ; and only 20 miles in some
parts of Calabria and Straits. The superficial area, including the
Islands, is 122,167 English square miles. The northern border of Italy-
is formed by the stupendous range of the Alps, extending in a long
curve line from the shores of the Mediterranean Sea near Genoa to the
head of the Adriatic. The Alps are connected with the Appenines at
their extremity, a smaller but still important range, which stretches in
an uninterrupted line, parallel to the shores of the Gulf of Genoa, and
then through the peninsular part of Italy to the Strait of Messina,
dividing the country into two narrow sections of lowland, which run
along from the mountains to the adjacent seas. The great Plain of
Lombardy lies between the Alps and the Appenines in Northern Italy,
and is traversed by the Po, as also watered by innumerable streams,
which flow from the adjacent mountains. The length of Lombardy is
about 250 miles from east to west, its average breadth being 50 miles.
Many narrow but fertile valleys are enclosed by the Appenines in
their progress southward.
Italy may be said to consist of two distinct portions — the continental
and the insular. The latter includes the three large Islands of Sicily.
Sardinia and Corsica, with the smaller ones of Malta, &c. It is divided
into nine Sovereign States, in all of which, with the exception of the
petty Republic of San Marino, the government is vested in an absolute
Monarch, and is everywhere exercised with the most rigorous despot-
ism, which, sooner or later, is. no doubt, de.stined to be annihilated.
S £ a X £i IT.
This beautiful island is situate in the Mediterranean Sea, adjoining
the south-western extremity of Italy, from which it is separated by the
narrow Strait of Messina. Its greatest length is about 190 miles, and
its greatest breadth about 106, the superficial area being 8.067 square
English miles, and the population about 2,000.000. The island is stud-
ded with mountains, among which, and on their tops, are plains of
moderate extent, some of which are 1,000 feet above the level of the sea.
Sicily forms a portion of the kingdom of the Two Sicilies, and pos-
sesses, virtually at least, a representative constitution, established in
1812 ; but since 1815 this has fallen into complete abeyance, and the
island is now all under the absolute power of the king. Sicily produces
silk in quantities, to the extent of about 400,000 lbs., the greater part of
which is manufactured into ordinary silk stufts. Its fishery and sul-
phur trades are productive. Sicily is divided into seven valli or in-
tendancies, and has for its capital Palermo.

200 RAILROAD. TRIESTE.
RAILROADS IN GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND.
A Rkport on the Railways of the Unted Kingdom has just been pub-
lished by Capt. J. L. A. Simmons. Government Inspector, from which
it appears that the number of miles open for traffic at the close of 1851,
was. in England and Wales, 5,306 miles ; in Scotland, 960 , Ireland,
624 ; total, 6.890. The sums raised annually for Railway purposes pre-
vious to the year 1848, cannot be ascertained ; but since that period
Parliament has required returns, which show the calls for 1848 to have
been £33,234,418 ; in 1849, £29.574,720 ; and in 1850, £10.522,967. The
diminution is remarkable. The return of the sums raised in 1851 have
not all, as yet, been received, and therefore cannot be stated. During
the past year 36 passengers were killed, and 375 injured by railway
accidents. In the previous year 32 were killed, and 183 injured. The
number of passengers conveyed on all the railways in tifie kingdom
during the past year, amounted to 85.391,095, being an increase of 17
per cent, over the jirevious year ; value of passenger traffic. £7,956,764,
an increase of 16 per cent., and value of goods traffic. £7,020.695, an in-
crease of lOi per cent, over the previous year. Aggregate revenue
of all railways for 1851, £14,987,310 sterling, an increase of 13^ per
cent, on the receipts of 1850.
RAILWAY TRAFFIC IN 1851.
It appears that the gross traffic receipts of Railways in the United
Kingdom for the year 1851 have been very little short of £15,000.000
on 6,928 miles of railway, being at the rate of £2,163 jier mile per an-
num. AVilh regard to the traffic returns published weekly, they show
a progressive increase during the past ten years, as follows : —
In the year 1842 they amounted to £4..341.78l ;' in 1843, to £4.842,650 ;
in 1844. to £5,610.980 ; in 1845. to £6.669,230 ; in 1846, to £7.689,870 ; in
1847. to £8.975.671 ; in 1848, to £10.059.000 ; in 1849, to £11.013,820 ; in
18.50; to £12,727,985 ; and in 1851, to £14.667,910. It will be observed
that the annual increase in the traffic has been very considerable
during the past ten years, being on the average above a million a year,
or £10,226.140. This increase partly arises from the continual develop-
ment of the traffic on the trunk lines, and partly from the additional
receipts from the opening of new lines and branches.
TRIESTE.— Austria.— The Tergest of the Romans, situated on
the Gulf of Trieste, at the head of the Adriatic sea, and at the foot of a
ridge of hills called the Karst hills, has, with outskirts, 83,114 inhabit-
ants ; is a free port, and the first seaport town of the Austrian mon-
archy ; is one of the most important commercial places of the Adriatic
or Mediterranean sea. The population is a mixed one. coming out of
all the commercial nations of the Mediterranean ; the Dalmatians and
Italians, however, are the root of the townspeople ; the country people
are of the Illyrian race.
Trieste can now be reached from London in about 132 hours, in-
cluding a stoppage of some time in Vienna. (For route, see imge l96.)
The return journey occupies longer, in consequence of a detention in
Berlin and Cologne.
Travelers arriving here by sea, should at once change their money
into paper currency. Gold, especially English sovereigns, hears a
high premium. The prices are published daily, and the list may be
seen at any money changer's.

what speaks highly for their ])roniptness is the fact, that not one of

ably fortunate in their passages. The Staflbrdshire made the shortest

It is universally conceded that, the chief obstacle which Gold
Miners have to contend with, is the difficulty of separating the gold
from pulverized quartz, or sand, especially where there is pyrites
of iron in the composition.
The testimony of all miners in California and Australia, shows
that large quantities of black iron sand exist in various localities
of the golden regions, but that the tedious and expensive nature of
the process of separating it from the gold, has hitherto prevented
the prosecution of that enterprise to any great extent. The black
sand, containing fre(iuently, two dollars' worth of gold in on©
pound of sand, lies therefore undisturbed. Wherever gold is found
in the surface washings, there also, some portion of this black iron
sand is intermixed, and in washing the sand away by the common
process, a large portion of the gold is also washed away, and lost.
These facts have aroused the inventive genius of the age, and ap-
paratus of various descriptions, have been constructed, with a view
to the accomplishment of the desired purpose. But for want of
practical experience, and a familiar knowledge of the nature of
quicksilver, they have all failed. The heavy sand has accumula-
ted on the surface of the quicksilver and prevented the gold from
coming in contact and uniting in amalgam : or the quicksilver has
been broken into globules, and carried ofl" with the sand.
The attention of gold miners, however, is invited to the fact, that
nature has furnished the most perfect combination of scientific
principles, in the movements of a whirlpool, which, by a proper
mechanical arrangement, are so applied and regulated, as to ac-
complish all that the gold miner can desire in the process of sepa-
rating even the finest particles of gold from iron sand as well as
from crushed quartz and other substances.
By a simple combination of three whirlpools, in
BUFFUxWS PERFECTED GOLD SEPARATOR,
the work is accomplished, and so easily, rapidly and perfectly, that
all who are interested, or who anticipate becoming interested in
gold mining, in California or Australia, are invited to call and se«
its operation.
A FUSZiIC S^HXBITIOrr,
of the process of separating gold from pulverized quartz, and from
Mack sand, is given at 10 o'clock, every morning, at the
GOLD MINING DEPOT,

Sir, — The Subscribers having many opportunities of
observing the effects of your " Aromatic Bitters," take
great satisfaction in expressing our complete confidence
in its effectiveness in all cases of a bilious nature, or in
complaints arising from a derangement of the digestive
organs. Having in our employ, large numbers of men
who are exposed continually to changes of weather and
climate in every section of the United States, we find that
the most effectual remedy for the diseases incident to
such a life, is found in your excellent preparation ; and
we can also testify that no injurious effects are to be ap-
prehended from its use under any circumstances. It has
now stood the test of several 3^ears under our own obser-
vation, and we can confidently recommend its use by per-
sons who contemplate traveling West, as an admirable
preventive of Fever and Ague, and complaints induced
by change of climate, etc., etc.
