ARCHITECTURAL SOCIETY. Yesterday evening, the
twelfth meeting of this society for the present session, was
held in the Royal Institution, Colquitt-street. Mr. H. P.
Horner occupied the chair. A conversation took place
regarding the Liverpool Building Act, in which the mem-
bers gave it as their opinions, that the Act contained
many absurdities. They thought that a bill should be
passed to remedy the existing absurdities. The con-
versation resulted in nothing, as the society had no

paper, the subject of which was, "A Plea for Ecclesiastical
Art." The essayist proved that religion was the parent of
art, as instanced in the temple of Solomon, which was the
glory and admiration of the world. Religious subjects were

purpose of being con centrated there is of a nature to
confirm these reports. Besides numerous artillery
has been despatched to Piacenza. During the last
clay, cannon of a large size have arrived at Milan
and Verona, part of which were provided
with carriages, for the purpose of seige,
and part of them with carriages for the coasts.
This concentration of artillery allows the supposition
that a veritable siege train is to be assembled at
Pavia, which can have no other aim than the siege
of the strong places in Piedmont.
