Mr. •SOAN.JE delivered on Thursday evening his
. first Lecture of his excellent Course on Archi-
tecture. An abstract of a discourse upon this
noble science, which is for the mos! art
founded upon fixed principles, would afford but
hide entertainment to the public ; though the
Professor renders it in the highest degree in-
teresting to his audience, front the manner
in which he explains and illu•ltrates it by ad-
mirable drawings, It may be sufficient to state,
that in the course of !he evening lot strongly re-
probated the barbarism so frequent in London, of
•torrning the pillars at the-sides of, entrances, into
alter.,ate- round and • sqn,are shapes. INico
JONES; Sir J. VAN/it/BCH, Lord BURLINGTON, and
Sir WILLIAM CHAMBERS, iiat'e.fallen into this de-
tect.
•The Constant practice' in the Squa'res at the
West E7HI of the town, of leaving the corner
house With finished tront, and a side toady
neglected-, wag equally reprehensible. The Boric
screen iir 'front of the Admiralty, as well as
the inner portico,- were instanced as dispropor-
tinned, and in a mean and little taste.• On the
other hand, the British Coffee House, Charing-
cross, and the Water-Gate, York-building, were,
he said, noble designs. The latter, notwithstand-
ing its dtiminntive -size, was tar mare gigantic
itt taste tliwi the enormous French Arc de
l'%toile. But the two late buildings of t
rri
French St. Genevieve, and the Garde Meuble,
are really wondei till instances of what t
taste and Jel,oarces of a great nation, pro-
perly direct, d, can effect ; and it we? to bs
hoped, that the exaMple might be followed in this
country, to the exclusion of the too prevailing
rare tor Egyptian, Hindoo, and a compound of
Goi:,ic an, Greek. At the conclusion the Pro-
fessor was loudly applauded.

JOHNSTON V. PAPICF.R, FALSF.I.Y CALLING If EnSFLF JOHNSTON.
