London in 1780 did not extend more than a mile north and south of St' Paul's. The houses and garden* Hoxton pushed out a little further to north, and to the south High street, Southwark, continued through Blackman Street to the tillage of Newington Butts, with a line of house* reaching Kenningtun Common. To the coi saving a fringe of bouse* on both ride* of the Thames. th*jown ended at Mileend gate: to the west it was bounded by

the |iarks.

The southern portion of the metropolis was even leas overbuilt, and spare was filled with gardens. Besides

the bridge*, the river was crossed hr -Sr^wT numerous ferries, and there were — — 1 —- -

ducks but the Commercial: the pool 1 crowded with shipping, and its wharves Were busy enough. Loudon bridge, ; was calculated, was daily crowd by some 79,000 persons, and the strvam of life flowed east and west. We remember the sating of Dr. Johnson, "Why. sir. Fleet street ims a very animatid appearance, but the tide of existruro is ‘

BPECTACfLAR CNTCCTAINMESTK. On.

At the other end of tlie town the much frequented theatre At SAdler's Wells produced a spectacle of tbject. calling it "TheChAinp , LovaI FederAtkm.- in which the whole off sir was oet forth in a aeries of tableaux, beginning with the activity of the citisens in preparing the ground, their jayous loyalty shown at the visit of the king, and "the striking and orderly manner in which the great business of the day wa* conducted.- Finally the Royal circus, having led the way, was not to be outdone, but again altered the lists with this popular subject, entitling it "The French Jubilee, - and made a few striking points omitted by the other

theatre*.

A feature characteristic of 1780 was the performance of these spectacle* of the contemporary revolutionary incidents, pat on the stage to gratify public feeling, which had more serious exponents. There society in London deriving its from the revolution of 1688, of which the Rev. Dr. Price, the minister of a highly respectable Presbyterian congregation at Stoke-Newingtan. and the Earl of Stanhope, a brother-in-law of Mr. Pitt and a distinguished man of adenc*, were leaders, and they were jointly responsible for a congratulatory address to the national assembly in Paris. This occasioned the writing of Burke's "Reflections on the French Revolution."— London Graphic.
