Cheapside U a strait, and a btisr one the busiest, I dare say, of the whole world of Btreota. It m not lonir, it is not beautiful; it is not tho resort cf the fashionable; it is a hnsiness thorough fare from first to last, and it bas more history crammed into its short stretch than other great thoroughfares have in their .combined long ones. Cheapside be ing not at tho Bide of anything in the present era, bat at the heart of all tilings, being iu the heart of London, lias a vory important place iu civio affairs. It it what they call "an artery of traffic," anpualted into the bargain and afford ing ingress and exit as between the dry and the regions west If it has a quarter of a mile to its length, it has as much as it con legitimately claim, and even that includes a little slice at the eastern end called the "Poultry," a title which signifies m local purpose in the pictur esque past. Cheapelde has at one end the poultry, but this need not be counted as a sepa rate entity. And at the Poultry end is the Mansion House, whore lives tne lord mayor in gold lace stute. Cheapside bumps into Threadneedle reet, up to the steps of tho Eoyal Exchange and against the walls of the Bank of Eng land, institutions which aro botu useful and ornamental. At tlie other end of Cheapsido there is a statue of Sir Robert PeoL But I venture to say that half the people who pans thero every day do not know whose statue it is, aua 01 tne cm er half an incimsiderablo fraction will have eomo accurate notron as to who Sir Robert Peel really was, tho balance be ing able to suggest only that be had "something to do with the police. " Cheapeii'e is to London what lower Broadway is to New York, between the postoffico and Wall street Shops, shops, shops, insurance companies, great mer actile hoaues, restaurants, a church Dick Whittington's that is to say, Bow church, where the bells still tingle these are the stationary ingredients of Cheapside. Omnibuses, human beings, eabs and carriers' vans are the movable ones. Cheapside is like the channel of a tidal river at one time of the day the current sets in one direction, and at an other time it ebbs to the opposite course. The street has many funny little trib utaries, with funny little names,' Bread street, Friday street, Ironmonger lane and Old Jewry being some of these narrow passages where in days more primitive than our own opposite neigh bors leaned out of windows and shook hands across the street, whilo from the pavement they could scarcely have seen the sky, so closely ma tne overnanging stories approach to the roofs thereof. But there are no dwellings inUheapsiae now, nor in the adjacent tributaries. Tho buildings tire all for business pur poses only. Tho old vogue of overhang has been lee; dispensed with, and a sprightly modern air is worn by the' eommercial architecture. One kind of commodity Cheapside has in more abundance than any other place on the whirling footstool jewelry. It may not bo the most sumptuous jewelry that ever was mado, it may not compare with tho golden filigree work of Za- ruara, but it is jewelry nevertheless and of a good sort for the moderate classes. And there is so much of it that it over flows tho contracted emporiums and flows In cascades and Niagaras of watch chains, necklaces, fantastio guards, be hind the plate glass windows. , It seems to be a trick of Cheapsido's shops to display all their treasures to the preoccupied eyes of thoso who here march in legions along the pavement. They pour their wares into their win dows with a reckless profusion suggest ive of the orient that is to say, the orient you read about, not the orient which actually exists. Tho jewelry of Cheapside is mainly silver jewelry, and the radiance of the windows is the white radianoo which tarnishes with such hap less reet::t in tho Lcndcn fox SOCIETIES. I'hwii Iiorigc No 84.
