LONDON IN A MANTLE OF SNOW—HYDE PARK AND THE CITY DURING THE DEPTH OF WINTER.

These rather gloomy but impressive pictures give New Zealanders, who are basking in the summer sunshine, some idea of the severity of an Old Country winter—the sort <»f thing of which particulars were cabled out the other day. The toil photograph is the famous Rotton Row, in Hyde Park, which in the spring and early summer with the fresh green of the magnificent trees, and neighbouring swards, and the fashionable world cantering up and down on well-groomed horses, is one of the pleasantest spots in London. Ibe lower picture was most probably taken from the steeple of St. Bride's Church, off Fleet-street. The thoroughfare running out of the picture in the foreground is Ludgate Hill, at the top of which St. Paul's looms out of the winter fog. Topical Photograph Ageucy.
