	A Contemporary Description of Manchester Township Greater Manchester in 1830
		Manchester suffered greatly from the Danish depredations; and is supposed to have been partly re-edified by Edward the Elder, about the year 920; but it continued for many centuries in a servile and low condition, and at the conquest seems to have been inferior to Salford, which was then a royal tenure.
		In the civil war Manchester adhered to the parliament, and was taken possession of by the militia of the county.
		Manchester as a whole must be taken in conjunction with its contiguous townships of Salford, Hulme, Ardwick, and Chorlton Row, which now constitute a part of the actual town, and are not distinguishable by the eye of a stranger.

		Cimabue's Madonna was shown in 1855 at the Royal Academy in London where it did indeed bring the artist fame, causing a sensation and being bought by Queen Victoria at the instigation of Prince Albert, to whom the subject made a strong appeal.
		At this date he believed that, because Cimabue would now be too big for the Royal Academy, it would have to go to the Exposition Universelle, and be replaced at the R.A. by the Romeo and Juliet subject.
		Leighton toyed with the idea of exhibiting it at the Crystal Palace, but Greville dissuaded him ('I have no faith in that institution') and he sent it instead to the autumn exhibition at the Royal Institution in Manchester.

		Manchester was to the fore in adopting the classical architecture of Greece, as opposed to Rome, for public buildings.
		The popularity of the style was confirmed by its use for Manchester's first town hall of 1819-34 by Francis Goodwin, an outwardly manginficent building which used the Ionic order of the Erectheum in Athens.
		Charles Barry and Charles Cockerell were among the architects who visted Greece; Barry's Royal Manchester Institution (now City Art Gallery) and Cockerell's Branch Bank of England are both strongly personal interpretations inspired by Greek ideas.

	The new Manchester Art Gallery opens its doors \| Floornature
		The new Manchester Art Gallery not only has more halls permitting permanent exhibition of works which had been kept in storage in the past, but also includes a new special events gallery on the top floor of the new building.
		The "crab shell" cement vaults, as the architect calls them, form the skeletal structure of the new building; they are held together by stainless steel bolts and could theoretically extend to infinity if it were not for the physical limitation imposed by the size of the city block.
		The Manchester Art Gallery, with Hopkins' new addition, offers the city an important landmark, a microcosm within the city incorporating a glass heart which holds it all together and functions as a city square, offering visitors a place to walk through or sit down and rest.

		The lecture, which was given under the auspices of the governing body of the Royal Manchester Institution, was very well attended.
		The wisdom of having such lectures delivered in the Town Hall instead of the Royal Institution, as was formerly the case, was amply demonstrated by the fact that Mr Pauer's audience last evening was three of four times more numerous than any he could possibly have addressed in the institution in Mosley Street.
		After giving a sketch of the principal events in the life of Handel, Mr Pauer related a number of stories of the great composer showing his marked determination of character and his extraordinary energy.
