At the back of the house is situated the kitchen, which opens into several back rooms and into the yard.

A house of this description consists only of five or six rooms on the ground-floor and a few small attic bedrooms.
The internal arrangements are quite European.

The furniture--which is often of mahogany,--the mirrors, the cast-iron stoves, every thing, in short, come from Copenhagen.

Beautiful carpets lie spread before the sofas; neat curtains shade the windows; English prints ornament the whitewashed walls; porcelain, plate, cut-glass, &c., are displayed on chests and on tables; and flower-pots with roses, mignonnette, and pinks spread a delicious fragrance around.

I even found a grand pianoforte here.
