- -"Evcn as now,
There have been in the hart, strange ricl,•s,
And dreadful certainties td doom."
On our way-one morning towards
the Tower of London, we visited the
Royal Exchange; and took occasion
to enter, among ; :other portions of
this extensive editice, that part occu
pied-by what is called
LLOYD ~,
nn ii l istitution recognized by inercan 7
tile men as connected with under
writing or insurance on vessels and
their cargoes.
Before° the present system of incor
porated . Insurance Companies, the
business of insurance was confined
to private underwriters. Their place
of . rendezvous in the city of London
was originally at a cofliee-house kept
by a person of the -name 'of Lloyd.
This. was more than a century ago,
but the association still preserves the
name it thus derived. There are now
between two and three hundred un
derwriters, together with 1;400 mem
bers and substitutes, belonging to
Lloyd's. The yearly subscriptions
to the Merchant's Room amount to
1.10,000; and .L 2.00 each per year is
received from° the principal London
Assurance Company, as well as con:
siderable sums from public journals,
fur early copies of shipping
geuce, and from other sources.
Thilletins of important items, and
the latest files of printed news from
all portions of the globe are open to
view : great numbers of clerks are
here busy, and messengers are con
stantly entering or passing out, while
parties interested are eagerly discuss
, Mg, iu various
. groups, the rate* of
insurance, on some ship or cargo,
perchance of great value,,from -which
DO report is received in due time.
The rates rise of course with the
lapse of days or weeks without the
expected intelligence : sometimes as
high as ,one-half the value, or even
more, is paid for indemnity, while
the nest hour perhaps may bring
tidings of a safe arrival or a total
loss. Hundreds of- agents are em
ployed, in as many distant ports, to
transmit intelligence of all naval
casualties in their vicinity, with the
least possible delay; and prompt de

The interests here represented
must be inonense; it is said - that, by
far i:he greater portion of British
apd goods, whether of el

as . a viay large amount from

THE' TOWER OF LONDON
has served for eight centuries as a
royal palace, a fortress, and a prison
of State;, as regards its connection
with the historic characters and
events of the country since the Nor
man conquest, no place in the me
tropolis or the kingdom can present
more of interest. It occasions some
degree of surprise to hear . intelligent
natives of the city.acknowledge that
they have never . been within its
wally. - The locality of the Tower is
about midway between the London
Docks and Londoa Bridge, in the
extreme eastern portion the city, and
immediately upon the northern shore
of the Thames, from Which access is
had by the "Traitor's Gate," through
which so many persons of high rank

tlse victims, not of justice, but of re
ligious persecution, the plots of un
ecrupulous rivals, or the jealous sus
picions of a corrupt, and tyrannous
court; and not alone by public doom,
but by dark assassination; have even
royal prisoners here ended their
Alava. •
Entering by a stone bridge at- the
south-west angle, we found ourselves,
on the payment of the customary
sixpence, under the charge and gaid,
ante of one of the Warders of the
Tower, a bluff, gray-bearded veteran; ,
with a tall spear and arrayed in the
livery of a yeoman of the Guard: the
same which they have worn since
the days of - Henry VIII. I was at a
loss to determine how the title Rely'
E:aters, which they commonly bear,
-can serve properly to distinguish
them from other' Englishmen. • -
The grounds 7 occupy an area of
about thirteen ''acres : the :enclosing
moat and ramparts being about half
a mile in circumference - . Instead of
a single tower, the Inner Ward alone
encloses twelve—each with its grim
memories and characteristic name.
The main central building is about
100 feet square; and nearly the same
in height are the turret:a-at its angles.
This is known as the White Tower.
and was erected by William of Nor
mandy, about the year 1080, as a
stronghold for his own defense, and
to awe the rebellious Saxon element .
of a conqUered city and covntry. For
centuries after, his successors upon
the throne continued to fortify with
new walls and towers, the citadel al ,
ready deemed impregnable, iVith its
inner walls seven ? and - its outer walls
fifteen feet, in thickness. It is deem
ed somewhat remarkable, that no
vestige of well or fireplace, should be
disdoverable within the building. A
large apartinent on the upper, or
third floor, with its massive timber
roof and supporters of peculiarly an
tique appearance, was used as a
council room-in the days when the
English kings held their Court at
the T(;Wer, and it was from hence
that the Protector, Richard of Glos
ter, ordered Lord Hastings to immc
diate execution. These upper rooms
are now
.used as depositories of
brightly burnished small arms, ar
ranged in great nrunliers,arid with

devices upon walls and ceiling. On

The Horse Armor' , presents a re
markable collection of ancient antis
and the armor Of different periods_
In - the days of the Norman Conquest,
the defensive armor worn upon - the'
body, seems to have been
. merely of a
kind of hard leather, cut into small
pleas overlapping - -,each other like
scales, - or of flat rings of steel similar
ly arranged. The flexible chain sr
mor was introduced - by the Crusa-',
ders from Asia, where it is still in use,:
and complete armor of plate was not
worn until the reign of Henry V.
The style of armor in the days of Ed=
ward, became so costly and
splendid, that is -" said knights who
might otherwise have been taken
prisoners, were often slain for the
sake of their spoils.' In the 16th -cen
tury, its weight became so loppressive
that the stout warrior often fainted
under it, and once unhorsed, • could
not rise from the , ground., -Little Was
_it dreamed 'of in those days, that
metallic armor of defense would in
time be transferred from men of war
•tipon the tented field, to men of Wet.
upon the ocean.
A very striking display is here pre
sented in a number, of-equestrian fig
ures, horse and rider of life size,.
representing -celebrated kings . and
knights of thel olden time, equipped
throughout in the armor of their va
rious periods: in some cases the same
they are said actually to have .winz.
Here are several of•the, Edwards, The
Richards,. and the Henrys; also, the
well known Earls of Elizabeth's reign,
Leicester and Eesex.
In the eolloction.otancient cannon
outside,• there is one of the kind first .
.used by the English; probably at the
battle of Cressy. They were then
made of bars of wrought iron welded .
'-together, and enclosed by iron hoops.
The balls used were of stone', and an
order is on record, issued by Henry
V., in 1 ils, for the making of '7,000
of these at the (rotaries of Kent.. An

Kate, the 'youngest' of the three
daughters,: had just-arisen front the
pianoforte, - where she had' improved
upon her last course. She was'nine
teen years of age; and her form was
of the pure female typee-not ,robust,

Mr. Lanark was of a different opin

-was no dispute. . The Judge would
often, say—" Well; my Kate looks
very good, anyhow." - And nobody
had ever disputed him. ,, . ~ -
Isabel and Bertha'were the other
two, - both older than Kat9,...being
aged respectively twenty-one and
twenty-three... They had graduated
at a very fashionable school, and
were deemed very,. very highly ac
coinplislied, and moreoverethey were
called beautiful. • , * .
Judge Lanark was the father ; of
those girls. 6He was a man of means,
though not of large, wealth. He had
been a successful -lawyer, and Was
now upon the bench ; and his social
position was of - the very . highest.
Governors had been among his cli
ents, and Senators looked to him for
counsel and assistance. The Judge
had reared two sOnceanir,sent them
forth into . active, useful life ; hut his
daughters ho b.ad left to his wife.

The Jt dge caught his Kate by the
hand and cried :
." Good, good for tate:"
Isabel end Bertha smiled derisive
ly.s Their-looks plainly showed that
they considered the thing ridiculoue.
Mrs. t i anark looked up in-surprise'
and deprecation.• - It seemed a re

upciu her educational care of
her daughters. Kate saw. the look,
' and ausw,ered :
"I do hot mearee lOaf of such sog- '

Mrs. Line'ark was, mollified but pot
convinced.

not whether he chose Isabel or Ber

and either vronld make a worthy

And we do not do the Judge in
justice when we say that even he al
ldwed himself to hope that the'son
of.his classmate might find it in his
heart to love one of.his girls. He
had studied the young man's charao,
ter well, and he believed it to be ohe
of the purest and best.
And Isabel and Bertha. Of course
there was rivalry between them, but
they agreed they would abide the is-
Arne. If Isabel
.was selected to pre

Bertha would not complain ; should
Bertha prove` the. fottunate one, Isa

One thing happened very unfortu
nately. On the day of Archworth's
arrival, the cook had been taken sick.
What was to be done?
"Never mind," said "gate with a
smile, "I will take the reins until the
cook is well."
"But for mercy's sake," implored►
Isabel, "don't iet Mr. - Archworth
know it!- He belongs to a sphere
which would be shocked by such a
gross impropriety. He -would look
upon us as belonging to the canaille.'
But there was no present help for
it, and Kate went into the kitchen

sense and quick comprehension, aid
ed by-keen _-roWers of analyiii - and

He bad goUotoo far to retreat, so be
pushed boldly - on into the-kitchen. .
• " Ah, good morning, Miss Lanark.
Pardon my intrusion, but I saw the
milk pail comel in, and'l could not
resist , the temptation. • 0! the old,
old ,days! I.never shall forget theni,
and I. trust I may never ontliye them.
It was my boyhood's delig to lake
from
,my mother's hand the cup warm
from the milking. This is the - -first
opportunity that 'has presented
self for many long years,and I could
not resist the temptation: You will
pardon- the I know.!'
At first Kate - had been startled ter
ribly; but she Met -the supPliants
warm and radiant look, and the mu
sic of the old home love fell upon her
ear, and when she t :,.aw; as by instinct,
that the whole-:scene -was pleasent to
hint, she faclt her 'heart bound with
gleeful assurance; and. brushing the
flakes of dough- from. her arms, she
went and filled a bowlwith new milk
and-brought it to him. • -
"I trust," she said, witlin beaming
smile, "that the - dust of toil upon my
hands will not render the ofiering
ie , :s acceptable."
No matter what Roland replied,
he said something and then drank;
the milk. He evidently, longed- to
linger in -the, kitchen, but 'propriety,
. forbade, and, with more of his real
feelings in his looks than in bis :me t:(.l),°
ho retired.
- Afew days thereafter the young
banker sought the Judge in his study,
- and said as he took a seat, that, he
hid something importimt to say.
"I aome,"lie said, , to ask of you
that. I May seek the rand of .Sur

The Judge was agreeably am prised.
He had fanclied that of late the youth
had been growing cold toward his

"My dear cloy," said he, "between
you and me there need he no beating
about the ; bush. I should bo both
proud and happy to welcome you as

"Of the two ?" repeated Roland.
"Ali; - is it Isabel or Bertha?'
"Neither, sir; it is Kate I want." .
-"Kate I" .cried the old map in hlank
astonishment. But -quickly 'it : , !'glad

"But, my dear boy, i hoW •in the
