STAINED GLASS.—Mr. Wilmshurst, in a paper lately
read before the Freemasons of the Church, observed, that
" upon the general introduction of classical architecture, we
find very little stained glass was used for some time, and la-
mentable mistakes were commtnittecl, such as removing the
mullions of SL George's Chapel, Windsor, in order to intro-
ducA a window from a design by West, which was painted
by Jerv:.kis and Forrest, and the window in New College
Chapel, Oxford, painted from Sir Joshua Reynolds's de-
sign, is,
exceediogly poor in effect, and quite inappyopriate in
character for the tielvitiful building in which it is placed ;
but, on the other hand, with our better knowledge o these
subjects, there is less excuse for the glaring absurdities
petrated at the present time, as, for instance, placing a Go-
thic window in the Roman church of St. George s, Hanover-
square.— The Builder.
