London Correspondence, of the N. O. Delta. : A GLIMPSE ABROAD. - . - - Lokdos, Sept. 5, 1848 Eds. Delta The first morning after nVy arrival I left my hotel and feund myself in thie street, without knowing a single indi vidual of the two millions of inabitants here assembled, s.nd having no special ob ject or direction in view beyond that of contemplating what should occur before my eyes.. An utter stranger like myself, sud denly deposited in this immense metropolis and mart of England and the world, would naturally experience feelings of amaze ment and awe as he looked around. All was life and animation. A human throng pressed by ; each being filled with his own plans of ambition, or wrapped up in .his own seft-esteem, Jtow humbling, then, to one's own self-conceit or well-founded pride was the immediate reflection that not a person knew one, or had heard of one, or cared for .one. The least, conspicuous individual, like myself, as well as he who might have been celebrated for transatlan tic distinction, would share the same inevi table, depressing sentiment of the indiffer ence experienced towards him by this hu- J a niau, crowtl. 1 lie roll and noise oi omni buses, coaches, cabs, and vehicles of every build and description, was incessant. As rar as. the eye can range in every uireciion, they come in utter medley, or in close ar ray ; proceeding at furious - speed, and threatening, in the confusion, repeated col lisions. It must be an expert ' whip," and one well trained for metropolitan driv ing, that. ! able so desirously to thread his way. in, these crowded .thoroughfares. I called a cab : it was one of peculiar con construction, hung low on two wheels, open in front, ami the driver on a seat behind. The horse started off in a canter, breaking into a fast trut j and it appeared to me that at each instant we should dash into some thing, or oursKf lves be dashed to j pieces Nothing, how ever, but' the, courtesy anil mutual accommodation which prevails among these numerous drivers, assisted by a quick eye and well-trained horses, enable them to get along at all.. . We followed the general current, which at that time of day was setting towards the business parts of London, called The City." We passed along the great thoroughfares of the Strand, through Fleet street, lined on both sides with shops, and packed with, pedes irains and vehicles. . ,e . f. I stopped to behold in silent admiration o'. aw'i. It rose before me in majestic and classical appearance -blackened with 1. : a 1 r . t 1 . soiokc 111 ine recesses i zxnc arciutecture, while; the points exposed te the wind and rains are white as -the original stone-when first laid. . Thisgreat cathedral in point of size,, extent, and magnificence of architec ture, form an object of admiration to the traveller second only to St. Peter's at Rome, It oecupiml thirty-five years in building, pd.is a lasting memorial of the genius of its great architect, Sir Christopher Wren whose remains, .with those ot other distin uisiied men, are interred within its walls. Iere are to be seen -the .beautiful monU (Nents to Nelson to Dr. Johnson, the Mar quist of Corn wal lis, and other names cele brated iiv history ; but a plain " marble slab covers the architect, having inscribed on ai it; these . appropriate --and expressive vords Si quarts monument um circum lce.,, - - I Wehave now got to "The "City," It 1 a small part of London.

In one room, in the Btyiuchamp Tower," the walls are literally covered with these painful records of tyranny and oppression. That absolute and unrelenting monarch, Henry VIII, made a constant use of this prison for those whom his disliked, or who could no longer satisfy his caprices: and every one here incarcerated, by him, was inevitably exe cuted, being condemned by a pliant and servile Parliament, on the flimsiest pretexts arid most unjust accusations. Several persons suffered here, because they assert ed the legality of his marriage with Catha rine of Arragon, who had been'his wife for 0 years. From hence, too, were led to execution his two" Queens, -Anne Boleyn, and Catharine Howard. On the wall, near the window, there is inscribed by the hand of the formed, by means of a pair of scissors, a statement that she had been a close prisoner tor eight months tlays hours minutes seconds.'' the blants heinw filled up hy numbers which I do not re col lect, and subscribed and dated bv her. There never was a more cruel, 'wicked, unjustifiable act than the beheading of ,Ane Boleyn. She was tried before a jury of twenty-five peers, not one of whom dar ed to interpose in behalf of an innocent Queen, against the cruelty of their tyrant. Though unassisted by counsel, says Hume, she defended herself with great presence of mind : and the spectators could not for bear pronouncing her. entirely innocent. The King, himself, made the most effectu al apology for her, by marrying Jane Sey mour, the very day after her execution. His impatience to gratify this new passion, caused him to forget all regard to decency j aud his cruel heart was not sottened a mo ment by the bloody catastrophe of a person who had so long been the object of his most tender affections. . The axe and block which did this work are still preserved in the Tower, among many other various re lics. The axe, which she grasped in her hand, and smiled, saying to the Lieuten ant of the Tower, ' my neck is very slen der ''and the block, with two large gash es in it, scooped out, on one side for the shoulders, on the other, for the head. Her dyins prayer with trembling fervor speeds For that l.ile monarch by whose will she bleeds ; hi.i wuu listening on mat ratal morn, Hears her death signal o'er the distant lawn, From the deep cannon speaking, I hen springs to mirth, and winds his buyrle horn lor him she prays, in seraph tone, " Oli I be his sins forgiven.
