“Cadogan Place is the one slight bond which joins two extremities; it is the connecting link between the aristocratic pavements of Belgrave Square and the barbarism of Chelsea. It is in Sloane Street, but not of it. The people of Cadogan Place look down upon Sloane Street, and think Brompton low. They affect fashion, too, and wonder where the New Road is. Not that they claim to be on precisely the same footing as the high folks of Belgrave Square and Grosvenor Place, but that they stand, in reference to them, rather in the light of those illegitimate children of the great, who are content to boast of their connexions, although their connexions disavow them.” BARNABY RUDGE. “The Golden Key”—the house of honest _Gabriel Varden_, the locksmith—was in Clerkenwell, situated in a quiet street not far from the Charter House— “A modest building, not very straight, not large, not tall, not bold-faced, with great staring windows, but a shy, blinking house, with a conical roof going up into a peak over its garret window of four small panes of glass, like a cocked hat on the head of an elderly gentleman with one eye. It was not built of brick, or lofty stone, but of wood and plaster; it was not planned with a dull and wearisome regard to regularity, for no one window matched the other, or seemed to have the slightest reference to anything beside itself.” This was its description one hundred years ago, and its exact whereabouts cannot now be ascertained. There are some old plaster-fronted houses, evidently belonging to the last century, still to be found in _Albemarle Street_, near _St. John’s Square_, but none of these fairly correspond with the description of “The Golden Key.” The Cellar of Mr. Stagg was situated in _Barbican_. We read that its position was “in one of the narrowest of the narrow streets which diverge from that centre, in a blind court or yard, profoundly dark, unpaved, and reeking with stagnant odours.” “The Black Lion” Tavern can only be identified as being situated in Whitechapel. It was a favourite resort of _Mr. John Willett_, landlord of the “MAYPOLE INN” at _Chigwell_, when he came to town; and we may remember it as the scene of _Dolly Varden’s_ satisfactory interview with her lover Joe, after his return from “the Salwanners.” MARTIN CHUZZLEWIT. Anthony Chuzzlewit and Son had their place of business near _Aldersgate Street_. Their dreary residence was the bridal home of Mercy Pecksniff—married by Jonas Chuzzlewit—and we may recollect her reception at this establishment by the worthy _Sairey Gamp_. To this house Jonas returned after the murder of Montague Tigg, and was here arrested by his relative _Chevy Slyme_, in the presence of his uncle and Mark Tapley. Its situation is described as being in
