COOMBE WARREN. 
[SEE SUPPLEMENTARY ӨНЕЕТ.] 
G OOMBE WOOD is one of the pleasantest spots 
to be found within ten miles of London, and 
around it are dotted many beautiful gardens, of 
which Coombe Warren, the residence of B. W, 
Currie, Esq., certainly is not the least delightful,

arrangements have been so contrived as to con-

Immediately beside the south front of the house 
runs a broad gravél walk terminating in a 
Grecian temple, in the centre of which 
| stands a finely executed bust of Mr. Gladstone.
