The story on what would later be known as the Anglo-Persian War or the Anglo-Iranian War continues on the following page, along with an article on the insurrection in Sicily and news from various parts of the world. The issue has more than a dozen handsome engravings, including a double-page illustration of the late Royal Italian Opera Covent Garden. Among the other engravings are a view of the Manchester warehouse of the Samuel & James Watts drapery business; Canterbury Music Hall, Upper Marsh, Lambeth; and the North Sea, where a steamer is forcing her passage through the ice to Cronstadt. There are portraits of Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton; the Prince of Leiningen; Thomas Assheton Smith, Esq.; and performers in a scene from "A Midsummer Night's Dream." An illustration of Paris fashions for December, includes a captivating image of a child playing with a toy balloon, a recent invention for the amusement of children. This issue measures 16" x 11" and has 16 pages. It has a decorative masthead and is identified as No. 833, Vol. XXIX.
