Whereshall we go this morning? Such is usually the query over the breakfast
table with visitors to London. Let us answer the question. If you can
admire the most beautiful specimens of PAPIER MACHE MANUFACTURE which are
produced in this country, displayed in the most attractive forms--if you
want a handsome or useful dressing-case, work-box, or writing-desk, if you
need any requisite for the work-table or toilet, or if you desire to see
one of the most elegant emporiums in London--then you will go to MECHI'S,
4. Leadenhall-street, near the India-house, in whose show-rooms you may
lounge away an hour very pleasantly.
