The introductory remarks to the Royal Music-room geel
viously described will eqsally apply to this most oploblid
and beautiful apartment—it wrests a design the gam
striking, involving the twirls:lcier of inveutirin, isoCallw-
feseedly but distinctly to be traced, from the sniuseteeteb.
jeers to the harmonised emobination of the whole; a es.
hibits grandeur without tawdriness—good taste, as comsat.
iug from intellectual cultivation—and, gessmilly, a resistless
faseisiation of effect, impossible accurately to he described.
Its situation is uearly at the southern extremity of the
Palace, sod its dinieurious are 60 feet its length, by 43 frit
wide. The walls are bounded at the height of 23 feet by a
cornice of the must elegaut fortis, apparently inlaid with

whirls, with their spattibils, are supported in She uncles by
four gulden column., connecting themselves with a unifies
cove, surmounted by a dome, rising to the height of 46'
feet. This flume is coisairected to represent an misters sky,
partially obscured by the broad sod branching foliage of a
'exurb/tit plantain tree. This bold feature is expeesoril as
