REGULATIONS
ISSUED FOR THE GUIDANCE OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMISSIONERS,
GENERAL REGULATIONS.
1. The Exhibition will be opened on or about the 1st May, 1886, and will remain open for a period of about six months.
2. Subject to the conditions stated in Regulations 3 and 4, the objects to be exhibited are left entirely to the discretion of the Governments participat- ing, in so far as they illustrate the resources, products and manufactures of the Colonies and the Indian Empire. For reasons stated elsewhere, no Classification has been attempted by the Royal Commission; but each
Government is invited to classify its own collection.
3. All fulminating and explosive substances and all dangerous substances are absolutely forbidden to be sent, but they may be represented by models or dummies,
4. Spirits, oils, essences, corrosive substances and generally all substances which might spoil other articles or cause inconvenience to the public, can only be received in substantial and suitable vessels of small size.
5. There will be no charge for space.
6. Motive power and water will be supplied free of cost, provided that notice by letter or cable is given before the 1st fanuary, 1886, Foundations can be laid, under the superintendence of the Secretary to the Royal Com- mission, upon requisition from the Executive Commissioners, with their order for payment. The work will be done at the expense of the Commissions requiring it ; and full particulars of the size, character and intended position of machines should be given.
7. As the allotments of space have in most cases been already notified to the Colonial and Indian Governments, no further applications can, except under special circumstances, be entertained. Applications to exhibit from any individual or firm will be referred to the Executive Commissioners for the various Colonies and for India.
8. The Executive Commissioners apnointed by their respective Govern- ments will have the entire control of the arrangements of the goods
lviii Colonial and Indian Exhibition.
exhibited in their respective sections, subject to the conditions stated in Regulations 9 to 16.
9. At least one main passage of not less than fifteen fect must extend throughout each Court from end to end; and, where doors or openings occur, passages of not less than ten feet in width must be provided communicating with the main central passage. The necessity of providing adequate space for allowing the proper inspection of articles exhibited need scarcely be insisted upon.
10, Signs or name-boards should be placed parallel with the main passages, that is, parallel with the frontage of the respective stands. It is suggested that they should be black with gold letters, Care should be taken to prevent any interference with the electric lighting arrangements.
11. All handbills, printed matter, &c., connected with exhibits, and intended for gratuitous distribution, should be duly authorised by the Executive Commissioners for each country, who will find the Secretary to the Royal Commission ready to co-operate with them.
12, It is specially requested that no cases or goods should exceed the height of ten feet : this rule is not intended to prevent the erection of any special trophies ; but designs to scale of all trophies should, previous to their erection, be notified to the Secretary to the Royal Commission, 4
13. As the Exhibition Buildings are leased by the Royal Commission, no alterations affecting the structure of the buildings as regards the floor, walls or roofing can be permitted without special application to the Secretary to the Royal Commission.
14. Executive Commissioners will be required to provide all necessary attendance for keeping the stands and exhibits in their sections properly cleaned and in good order: all stands should remain uncovered during the hours the Exhibition is open to the public.
15. It is probable that the hours during which the Exhibition will remain open to the public will be from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. on all days except Wednes- days and Saturdays, when the hour of closing will be 11 p.m. These arrangements are, however, subject to alteration. The Exhibition will not be open on Sundays.
16. No Exhibit may be removed from the Exhibition Buildings until the close of the Exhibition, without the permission of the Executive Commis- sioners, countersigned by the Secretary to the Royal Commission ; ap consequently no selling, with a view to removal prior to the c!’ Exhibition, should be allowed.
17. Noarticle exhibited may be photographed, drawn, copied or ™ yoduced in any manner whatsoever, without the special sanction of the Executive Commissioner of the section ; this sanction should be notified to the Secretar) to the Royal Commission.
18, All packages containing goods intended for exhibition must have painted on them the distinctive mark C. |. E., together with the name of the Colony from which they are sent. They must in all cases be consigned to the Executive Commissioner of the Colony from which they are sent.

19.

20, Cases should be unpacked with the greatest possible dispatch, and when empty should be removed immediately from the buildings. The Secretary to the Royal Commission will have pleasure in recommending places of storage for empty cases ; but it must be distinctly understood that all arrangements for the unpacking, removal, storage and bringing back of cases must be made, and the expenses borne, by the various Colonial and Indian Commissions,

It is hoped for the sake of uniformity that the size of all such publications may be the same size as that of the General Catalogue, known as Demy 8vo, (8f in. x 5#in.)
24. A Colonial Dining Room will be organised, under the superintendence of the Royal Commission, to which Exhibitors are invited to send, through their Executive Commissioners, Colonial preserved food and wines for con- sumption by visitors, Special Regulations have been prepared for this department (see age Ixii),

GARDEN ILLUMINATIONS.
Tue Grounds of the Exhibition are lit up by about 9700 electric glow lamps of 5 and 10 candle-power, with a few 20 candle lamps on the Band Stands and on the verandah of tho Conservatory. \
These lights, many of which are brilliantly coloured, have been placed partly on the per. manent Museum buildings and on the Conservatory, 0 as to bring out the tracery of these buildings, and to give an appearance of vastness to the grounds, and partly on tho balustrades, round the flower beds, and in the trees and ornamental water of the gardens, the general effect being a charming arrangement of light and colour, The lights can be turned on or off instan-
taneously either by sections or altogether. Mesars. W. & J. Galloway & Sons, of Manchester, are the contractors for the installation and
maintenance of the whole of these garden illuminations, The installation consists of 23 circuits, each of which is made up of eight parallels of lam;. connected in series, the electromotive force of the 5 and 10 candle-power lamps being 25 volta,
and that of the current at the machines 220 volts. Each of tuese circuits is connected to the main leads from the dynamos by means of a
large switch-board, specially designed to allow of any circuit being connected to any dynamo machine. The lamps are distributed as follows :—
I, Conservatory . . . + ¢ «6 + ¢ 1500 lamps,
If. Eastand West Quadrants . . . . « «» 1600 , III, Upper Gardens, Trees and Balustrades and Bund Stands. 1550 ,, IV. East and West Arcades,and Trees. : ; - 2200 ,,
V. Lower Garden, Centre Pond, Side Ponds, Beds and Pendants 2500 ,, VI. Albert Statue . dete ° : : ° - 868 ,,
The total current required is about 800 ampéres. The current is obtained from four of Messrs. Elwell-Parker’s self-regulating dynamos, cach
of which can supply a current of 250 amptres with an electro-motive force of 250 volts when running at 300 revolutions.
The power required to drive these machines is supplied by a pair of compound horizontal engines, placed at the west end of the Canadian Court. These engines will each develop 200 H.-P., at a speed of 110 revolutions, and have been specially designed by Mesars. Galloway to meet the requirements of electric lighting.
The three large Siemens’ dynamos, which were used during the Invention Exhibition, and the Goodfellow's and Mathews’ three-cylinder engines, have also been retained, and will form a reserve in case of any accident to the new plant.
Besides the glow-lamp illumination, 15 arc lamps have been placed on three masts, so placed as to light up the whole of the grounds, even should the general illumination be put out. These arc lamps are new, from a Victoria Brush F. 8 dynamo, driven by a third Galloway engine, similar to the pair used for the glow lamps, and which is placed in the West Quadrant. This
engine also drives the dynamo for the fountain lamps.

THE ILLUMINATED FOUNTAINS.
In the Omamental Water, in the Grounds, Fountains of various designs have been arranged, which are illuminated after dark by means of powerful electric arc lamps.
The following is a description of the means by which the effects shown by the Fountains aro
roduced :— , The water for supplying the Fountains is delivered direct from the West Middlesex Water Company’s Hammersmith pumping station. The main enters the Exhibition Grounds from the north-west, and is conducted to the four water-meters, on the western sido of the centre basin, which register the quantity of water consumed. From this point a large main leads to the central “island,” where the principal jets rise, The water is supplied at a pressure of about seventy pounds to the equare inch, which is sufficient to carry it to a height of 120 feet.
The island is reached by means of a subway, and through this are laid tho cables for the electric current and the signalling wires.
The whole of the jets are worked by ecrew-valves and levers placed inside the island.
The Fountain display is directed from the clock tower at the south side of the Garden, the * operating-room” being below the dial of the large clock. The operator controls not only the working of the jets, but also the colour and power of the lights, by a series of electric signals, arranged on a key-board with 60 keys, in five rows of 12 each, which busca with bells and indicators inside the island.
The machine-room inside the island is an apartment 21 feet square. Its sof being only 5 feet 8 inches from the floor, renders it difficult for the operators to stand upright in it; and there is an outer passage all round which is only 4 feet 6 inches high.
The Fountains are set in action by secrew-valves fixed vertically on the different branches attached to the water main. The large jets, which send the water to the greatest heights, are worked by pixg-valves and levers, so as to allow an instantaneous start and stop, which causes a shower of spray. There are, altogether, eleven wheels and six levers.
In the roof are seven circular skylights of very strong glass, one of them being exactly in the centre, the others forming a hexagon about it. Under each of these skylights is a wooden stand, on which is fixed a hand arc lamp of 8000 candle power. Over each arc is a lens, which concen- trates the light on the jet. There are also eight windows in the roof of the outer passage under each of which is an arc light and reflector. When the order “Lights on” is received, the five arcs are set going, the result being to powerful’, illumine the jets of water internally, while the dropping water or spray is illuminated externally by the surrounding beams of light, thus pro- ducing a glistening-effect. There is alsoa lamp opposite the cascade, the light being concentrated by a plano-convex lens. The current for these lamps is supplied by a Victoria Brush machine, driven by the Galloway engine in the West Quadrant. The usuul staff is fifteen—one man to work the valves, thirteen td attend to the lights, and one to watch and reply to the bella. | They cannot see what is going on outside, their only means of knowing that all is right boing the signals from the clock tower.. The quantity of water sent up averages 70,000 gallons an hour; but when all the jets are going at once, 1000 gallons are used in fifteen eeconds.

THE “OLD LONDON” STREET.
DESCRIPTION OF THE STREET REPRESENTING “OLD LONDON” IN THE COLONIAL AND INDIAN EXHIBITION AT SOUTH KENSINGTON, 1886 (ERECTED FROM THE DRAWINGS AND UNDER THE SUPERINTENDENOE
OF GEORGE H. BIRCH, ESQ. A.R.1.B.A., LATE HON. SEC. LONDON AND MIDDLESEX ARCHAOLOGICAL SOCIETY).
Tats atreet is composed of various houses grouped together to form a quaint and picturesque thoroughfare of the normal width of an old London street, the dates of the various buildings being as diversified as are their size and appearance, and the object that has been held steadily in view, is to ehow the City of London as it existed before the Great Fire of 1666 swept it from off the face of the earth. ‘hese houses are no pasteboard and painted canvas delusions, but honest structures, They represent no fanciful restorations from written records, but are faithful delineations from actual drawings derived from authentic sources.
_ _ Areference tu the accompanying plan will enable the visitor to identify the different >-uses and structures which are numbered as in the following description.
Entering from the Central Avenue immediately in front of the Indian Palace stands one of the City gatea—Bishopagate, reduced in proportion and flanked by the City wall; this gate (not one of the original gates of which there were but four) was broken through the ar-cient walla, the peculiar Roman manner of building with courses of tiles being shown on the lower part; theae walla might have been built during the 400 years of Roman occupation, but more probably after their withdrawal and before the tradition of the Roman manner of building had died out; above the arch on each aide are the arms of the City of London and the arms of the Bishopric, and immediately over the gate in a niche stands the statue of one of the bishops, William the Norman, to whom the City was particularly indebted, for by hia good offices, all those rights and privileges and immunities which the City had inherited from Roman times and which had been confirmed and strengthened under the Saxon Kings, were recunfirmed by the Conqueror, Once a year the City fathers went in solemn procession to his tomb in St. Paul’s Cathedral, and testified by this act their grateful recognition. Above, on the towers which flank the gateway, are the statues of Alfred who wrested the City
from the Danes, and of hia son-in-law, Aldred Earl of Mercia to whom he committed the govern- ment thereof.
Passing through the gate the corresponding statue, that of William the Norman, is seen representing St, Erkenwald, the Fourth Bishop of London, a.p. 675, after the re-constitution of the see and re-establishment of Christianity by St. Augustine, This Erkenwald was a great favourite with the Londoners, and after his canonization, his shrine at St. Paul’s, one of the richest in the kingdom, was for many centuries an object of great veneration. The ground floor on each aide shows on the right a debtors’ prison, and on the left an ordinary lock-up, and bey nd are the staircases to the first-floor. After passing through the gateway, the firat house on the left ia the “ Rose Inn” (No, 1), Fenchurch Street, curious as having ita front covered with small cut slates, inatead of the ordinary lath and plaster and timber construction usual in London.
The next house (No. 2) atood in Leadenhall Street, and was known as the “ Cock Tavern,” the representations of this house, of which there are many, represent it after the gable had been removed, and a flat coping aubstituted, but in this instance its pristine condition has been reverted to, Following in order is a block of three houses (Nos. 3, 4 and 5) formerly existing in Fleet Street, towards ‘lomplo Bar, on the south side, and known by the name of the “ 'I'hree Squirrels,” now Mosara, Gosling’s Bank. This system of the houses being known by certain
signs irrespective of the avocations, or change of owners, was universal. The “Marygold” at Temple Bar, Meaers, Child’s Bank, The “Grasshopper” in Lombard Street, Messrs. Martin &

Old London. Ixxxv
Co., and the “Golden Bottle,” Fleet Street, \icsers. Hoate’s, ate all instances of a survival of ® nomenclature the origin of which has been s0 entirely at variance with the avocations of the subsequent owners.
The house (No. 6), is a copy of the one which stood at the corner of Fleet Street and Chancery Lane, and was traditionally known as the “ Isaac Walton’s House.” “ Vir et Piscator optimus,” but there is a doubt that tradition is this case was tradition only, as the actual house was two doors further to the west; but apart from this, the house itself was a magnificent specimen of an ordinary citizen’s house in Elizabeth’s reign, and was for many years a conspicuous ornament to Fleet Street, and in close contiguity to those well-known haunts of the wits of thit period, the “ Apollo” and the “ Devil” Taverns,
Set back a little from the main line of the atteet iu order to give prominénve to Walton's house, and to give it the appearance of a corner house, are two unpretending wooden structures (Nos. 7 and 8) which formerly stood hard by the ancient church of St. Ethelburga, Bishopsgate Street, and were the ordinary type of hundreds of others in the old city, a shop below, and a solar or chamber above.
Standing prominently in advance of these is the old tower of a church, which, although not
strictly modelled from that of All Hallows, Staining—differing only in having a larger traceried window—resembles in its general form and outline many others in which our forefathers were wont to worship; most of these churches were small, for the parishes attached to them were also diminutive, and this tower type, with bold octagonal staircase turret on one side, was almost universal; there were exceptions in which the towers had lofty pinnacles at each corner, like the present St. Sepulchre’s, Holborn, or the more modern re-buildings by Wren, of St. Michael’s, Cornhill, and St. Mary Aldermary; and the curious arched superstructure with its five lanterns of St. Mary-le-Bow, or de Arcubus, and the very fine spire of St. Lawrence Pountney; but the generality of the churches possessed towers similar in character to the one depicted here, } The water conduit (erected by Messrs. Judson & Co.), the pillory, and the stocks placed in the open space in front of the church tower are quaint and interesting features of the everyday life of our forefathers. This conduit stood at the junction of the four ways, Cornhill, Bishopsgate, Leadenhall Street, and Gracechurch Street, and was known as the “Standard upon Cornhill,” and a well-known point for calculating distances from. The original had eight jets of water proceeding from the top of the Corinthian capital, but as the space at disposal was so limited these extra jets had to be omitted.
Next to the church, and fronting down the street, is a portion of Middle Row (No. 9), which stood in the Strand, just outside Temple Bar, and was known as Butchers’ Row; these houses well represent the overhanging of the stories so prevalent in London where the groundfloor space was very limited, additional room above being obtained by these means at the expense of light and air. Butchers’ Row itself and its quaint structures were swept away when Alderman Pickett, with a public spirit far in advance of his times, made one of the first public improve- ments by widening this portion of the Strand, leaving the Church of St. Clement Danes isolated in the midst of a large oval. These houses are historically interesting, as in one of them the Gunpowder Plot conspirators met.
Elbow Lane.—The site at this point considerably narrows, from 70 tv 30 feet, and the houses are not continued on parallel lines, in order to break a perspective which would have been too long for a picturesque effect, and also in order to obtain that sinuosity so characteristic of London streets.
Next on the left is a fine large house of two gables (No. 10), which stood in this Middle Row, Strand, and was known as the French Ambassador’s house, or the Duke of Sully’s, also Monsieur Beaumont’s, both ambassadors here from the most Christian King to the Court of St. James’. This Duke de Sully was the famous Henri de Béthune, the wise and popular minister to Henri Quartre, King of France and Navarre. That this house was probably occupied by him there can be little doubt; not only from the commonly accepted tradition, but from the fact of its being decorated with badges of the De Béthunes, the French crown and fleur-de-lis and two hands grasping one another in a true “ entente cordiale.”
The next (No. 11) is a low structure of wood and plaster, and has been modelled from an old engraving representing portion of Bishopsgate Street. |

Ixxxvi Old London. Beyond this is an old house (Nos, 12 & 13) which was in Goswell Street, of the date of
Elizabeth’s reign. The windows are mullioned and transomed, and show one peculiarity very
general in old London, in carrying on the upper lights continuously,
No. 14 isa timber house with carved bargeboard, which stood next to Blue Boar's Head Yard, King Street, Westminster. The tradition as to its being formerly occupied by Oliver Cromwell was verified in 1888 by an inspection of the parish books of St. Margaret's, West- minster, where it was found that Licut.-General Oliver Cromwell was rated for and occupied this house some time anterior to his taking possession of Whitehall Palace.
The last house (No. 14a), decorated with medallions of the Roman Emperors in plaster, stood on Little Tower Hill. There is nothing remarkable in the building beyond that the roof line is level and was chosen as a contrast to the all-prevailing gable.
At this point (No. 15)—the termination westward of the street—the entrance thereto is masked by one of the galleried fronts of an old London inn, The “Oxford Arms,” Warwick Lane, was chosen as a typical specimen; but there are still remaining in Bishopsgate Street, Holborn, and more especially the Borough, several examples of these.
The house beyond (No. 16) was on the west side of Little Moorfields, Finsbury, and was a very fine specimen of plaster work. It was not removed until the commencement of the present century. A low building connects this with two houses (Nos. 17 & 18) possessing considerable interest; they stood at the south corner of Hosier Lane, Smithfield, over against the famous “Pye Corner,” where the fearful conflagration of 1666 was arrested, after having laid considerably more than three-fourths of the City in ashes; they were not removed until 1800.
Another gateway here arrests our steps; this was the entrance to the famous Priory of the Holy Trinity, Aldgate, founded by Queen Matilda, and whose Prior, by virtue of his office as representing the Knighten Guild who had made over to this priory their lands and soke, was admitted as one of the Aldermen of London, of the Ward of Portsoken. According to custom, he sat in court, and rode in scarlet, or such livery as the other aldermen used. The Priory, at the dissolution, was granted to Sir Thomas Audley, whose daughter, marrying the Duke of Norfolk, gave the name to the house built by Audley out of the ruins of the Priory,— Duke's Place.” Beyond the gate (No. 19) is the inn called the “ Fountain” in the Minories, which, notwithstanding its heavy projecting stories, was so strongly framed, that when it was attempted to remove it, cart-horses had to be employed to pull the beams apart; on one of them was foand the date 1480.
Beyond this (No. 19a) is the gable end of the Hall of the Brotherhood of the Holy Trinity (which is reached by ascending the staircases to the first floor) in Aldersgate Street, near to Little Britain. This Hall has been selected as a typical example of the Hall of a Guild or Livery, of which thore were many within the boundaries of the ancient City. It was a guild possessing property, and connected with the neighbouring church of St, Botolph’s, Aldersgate Street, and after the suppression was purchased by some of the parishioners as a place of meeting. It was not removed until the end of the last century, and very accurate drawings by Capon and Carter exist in the Gardner Collection, The Right Hon. John Staples, F.8.A., Lord Mayor of London for the present year (a member of the committee originally charged with the construction of the buildings), has given the history of this Guild in his ‘ Notes on St. Botolph’s, Aldersgate. The ancient stained glass with a figure of St. Blaise, and several ancient shields which existed in 1611, and were not iced by N. Charles, Lancaster Herald, have been faithfully reproduced.
The house beyond is one of the most remarkable in this street (No. 20), remarkable not only for its extreme richness of decoration, but as being connected with Sir Richard Whittington, famous in song and in story. It was situated four doors from Mark Lane in Crutched Friars, or Hart Street, up a courtyard, and was described in old leases as Whittington’s Palacd, Although the house from its style and ornamentation could not possibly have been of his time it is possible that the front only had been ornamented and altered, for in general outline and arrangement it resembled houses of that date—it was richly ornamented with carvings of the
armorial bearings of the city companies, which stamped it os being the house of a remarkable personage and one whom the City delighted to honour. It was impossible to reproduce the extreme richness of its decoration. ‘The ornamentation has therefore only been painted, the original having been entirely carved and painted and gilt.

The next two houses (No. 21) were drawn by Mr. Gwilt before they were removed ; they were situated in Bankside, and are pictureeque examples of plaster decoration and open balconies.
The last two houses (Nos. 22 & 28) in this street on the left before arriving at the gate at which we entered were also from the Gwilt collection (now in the Gardner) and stood in the High Street, Borough; they were only removed of late years, and were drawn and measured by Mr. Gwilt.
’ As to actual size the whole of the buildings have only been slightly reduced, but this has been done in proportion, although such reduction is not to a. uniform scale, but has been adopted in the different cases to suit the uniformity of the plan and arrangement of the whole. The interiors, it must be recollected do not in all cases correspond in size with the exteriors.
The foregoing notice is written from particulars furnished by Mr. Geo. H. Birch, the architect, and is not intended to be more than a very brief description of the examples selected to represent “Old London.”
The buildings were designed and constructed as bearing upon and connected with the special objects of the International Health Exhibition, 1884, to which the Corporation of the City of London and several of the Livery Companies liberally subscribed.
The Royal Commission has placed at the service of the Colonial Commissioners the whole of the upper rooms of this street.
On the right side of Old London will be found the rooms set apart for the use of the Colonial and India ‘ffices, and also those for the Crown Agents of the Colonies; all these rooms lead into the Colonisi Commissioners’ Club.

Throughout the late International Inventions Exhibition the Aquarium was crowded with visitors, taxing to the utmost its accommodative capacity. There is always a fascination in watching the graceful, silent movements of the denizens of our waters; and whatever form an exhibition may take, a glimpse into the Aqueous;Kingdom through the medium of Aquaria is. always heartily welcomed by everybody, Although the exhibitions that have succeeded that of the International Fisheries have been of an entirely different character, the Aquarium has always maintained its position of interest; and this is particularly the case with the present Exhibition, when an opportunity will be afforded to Colonial visitors of inspecting the various fish indigenous to this country. \
The Council of the National Fish Culture Association have done their utmost to heighten the attractiveness of this department ; and preparations have been in course of progress since the commencement of the present year for bringing to perfection the necessary preliminary arrange- ments whereby to ensure the successful retention of fish in captivity. During the winter the Aquarium was carefully maintained, so that the collection now shown to the public includes many well-seasoned and matured specimens, In order to render the fresh and sea-water as clear as possible, it has been clarified by Maignen’s “Filtre Rapide.’ Elaborate arrange- ments have been made for replenishing the tanks with marine and fresh-water fish, and with this in view special fishermen and naturalists are being employed on all parte of the coast to capture and forward specimens, so that the Aquarium may always be replete with selected fishes, forming a unique display so far as London is concerned. The specimens on view include the turbot, sole, halibut, brill, plaice, flounder, dab, pilchard, shad, cod, haddock, whiting, hake,

In addition to the foregoing are to be seen a large collection of crabs, lobsters, crayfish, and oysters, together with a diversified display of sea-anemones. The Directors of the Brighton Aquarium are rendering valuable assistance in forwarding specimens of fish captured off the South Coast, 20 that many of the fish familiar to those who have visited that popular place of amusement and instruction will be found amongst the occupants of the marine tanks at South Kensington.
In order to intensify the interest attaching to the collection of live fish, the Lords of the Committee of the Council on Education have again given their consent to a portion of the Buck- land Museum Collection being exhibited in the Aquarium. Thus a wide and diversified collection of interesting and edifying objects are presented to the public conjunctively with
the live fish, all of which embrace an important and popular combination of exhibits relatin, to Fish, Fisheries and Fish-culture, a a
