Description

Christmas Comes but Once a Year - Showing What Mr. Brown Did, Thought, and Intended to Do, During That Festive Season.

ERY cold, very bleak; the thermometer and snow are falling fast; eggs and suet are rising faster; everything at this season is prized, and everybody apprizes everybody else of the good they wish them,A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

The snow that descends, making park and common aliketopping palace and pigsty, now crowns the semi-detached villas, Victoria and Albert. They were erected from the 2 designs of John Brown, Esq. and his architect (or builder), and are considered a fine specimen of compo-cockney-gothic, in which the constructor has made the most of his materials; for, to save digging, he sank the foundation in an evacuated pond, and, as an antidote to damp, used wood with the dry-rotthe little remaining moisture being pumped out daily by the domestics. The floors are 3 delightfully springy, having cracks to precipitate the dirt, and are sloped towards the doorways, so that the furniture is perpetually trying to walk out of the rooms; but those apertures are ingeniously planned to prevent the evilthe doors obstinately refusing to open at all, without force. That the whole may not appear too light, few windows are introduced. By casual observers the Victoria and Albert would be taken for oneso united are they; and had we not seen the parting division, we should have doubted also. Of the entrance lodges, we have noticed one of the chimneys smoking periodically; and, from the mollient white vapour issuing over the window at such times, presume Victoria is washing, whilst Albert is locked up and doing nothing. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
