There is but little to detain us in the streets behind Ludgate-hill, running into Upper Thames-street and Earl-street, beyond the mere mention of Apothecaries' Hall, which stands in the Broadway, that unites with Water-lane, and which was built soon after the Fire of London. There is a portrait of James I., and a statue of Delware, at whose intercession James granted a charter of incorporation. The controversy between this Company and the College of Physicians called forth Garth's poem entitled "The Dispensary," which was very popular at that period, and is still worthy of perusal. The _Times_ Office, in Printing-house-square, is the great lion of this neighbourhood; and the same spot was occupied by the king's printers at least as far back as the reign of Charles II. A description of this mighty lever of the "fourth estate" does not come within the compass of our light pages. Neither St. Andrew's-hill nor Addle-hill requires much notice, though the former contains one of Wren's churches, called St. Andrew by the Wardrobe; also a beautiful monument to the Rev. W. Romaine. Paul's Chain and Bennet-hill bring us back again to St. Paul's; and here our readers will consider that we make a fair start eastward, with the intention of describing the principal objects of interest that lie between the nearest great thoroughfare and the river on the south side of the way, while a few of the principal objects in the streets on the north will arrest our attention as we return on our journey westward. Paul's Chain took its name from the chain thrown across the road during the time of Divine service; a duty now performed by policemen, who, although they do not bar up the way, caution the drivers to go on slowly during service-time.
