purpose 10 accomphs:
BY submitting TO our readers series OF designs
for Cottages, Farm Houses, Villas,
aud other Dwellings, embracing every approprI-
ate comfort and the greatest variety OF Beauty
and, by accompanying these Designs with an
alyticat aud critical remarks, pointing out IN
what this beauty consist, aud what prlncl-
pies both are founded.
BY subnttinga series of Designs for finishing,
CITING up, fixtures, and furniture suitable to the

Buidings-aHd by accOmpa ming these with re-
marks on THAR fitness for the end in view, such
as Citing, heating, ventllating, &c, as well
as with analytical aud critical remarks on their
style or beauty.
By avoiding, when il is not absolutely ueces-
sary, the use OF the terms peculiar 10 ArchiIec-

they fast occur-and by adopting such style
as will render the work esily understood by the
