Wasted Tower Treasures.

Down in the crypt below-the wfcite tower of the Tower of London lie, unheeded by the powers that be, some ancient and valuable stained-glass windows, and there they will probably continue to lie unless the powers that be are stirred to repentance. The Oity Press, which has discbvered these hidden treasures, says that they were, so far as can be judged, placed in the chapel windows by Edward 111. Thence they were removed to the Armory house, and when that building was not long ago rebuilt they were cast into the crypt irreverent war office.
