ENLARGEMENT OF THE CAPITOL
IT, The Committee on Public Buildings of the
Senate, having been authorized by resolution Of
that body, 4" to invite plans accompanied by esti-
mates for the extension of the Capitol, and to al
low premium Of FIVE hundred dollars for the
plan which may be adopted by the Committees on
Public Buildings Of the two Houses Of Congress, -
accordingly invite such plans and estimates, to be
delivered to the Secretary of the Senate on or be-
fore the first day Of December next.
1t is required that these plans and estimates
shall provide for the extension Of the Crpitol,
either by additional wings, to be placed on the
north and south Of the present building, or by the
erection of separate and distinct building within
the enclosure to the east Of the building.
The committee do not desire to prescribe any
condiuon, that may restrain the free exercise OF
architectural taste and judgment, but they would
prefer, that whatever plan may be proposed may
have such reference TO and correspondence with
the present building to preserve the general
symmetry Of the entire structure, when complete.
Although but one plan can be adopted, the COM
mttee reserve TO themselves the right to form such
plan by the adoption of parts of different plans
submitted should such be found necessary; in
which event, the committee also reserve to them
selves the right to divide or apportion, according
to their own Judgment, the amount of premium tc
be awarded for the whole, to those whose plans
may in part be adopted, according to the relativ.
Importance and merit of each part adopted.

A GREAT NATIONAL WORK.
THE GALLERY OF JLLUSTRIOUS
AMERICANS.
Daguerreotypes by Brady---Engraved by
D'Avignon.

EDITED BY AN ASSOCIATION OF LITERARY MEN.
VTNDER this title will be published, during the
~ year 1850, twenty -four Portraits and Biographi
cal Sketches OF American citizens who have become
lusrious in the service of the country. Every por
ton of the work will receive the most careful
ton, and nothing will be spared to render il worthy
mad enduring monument to the great men OF the Re-
public.
Mr.. Brady has been many years engaged, at great
expense, IN collecting Portraits Tor National Gal
lery, and those which being engraved for this
work are believed to be superior to any that have
been taken. In the accomplishments of this great
object he has experienced the utmost courtesy and
encouragement from distinguished men Mr.. Bradys
reputation has been too long established to need any
recommendation. His daguereotypes in the
highest sense the works OF art, glowing with the soul
Of the living counsenance.
The dra wings and engravings OF D'Avignon have
been pronounced by Europeans of taste to be fully
equal and in some respects superior to those Of the
best artists OF London and Paris and every i'm
preston in this Gallery will be taken under his inn
mediate supervision The Typography will he exc
cuted carefully and in as superb style as the en-
cravings themselves The entire work will be on
the finest imperial folio paper, i6 by % inches, made
expressly for this purpose.
This work has nothing sectional in ITS scope IL
win therefore be compre hensive in its spirit The
names of those only admitted, whose talents
and public services have won for them honorable
fame throughout the nation. Each OF the great de
partments OF life whl have its representatives. Art
and Literature universal in their spirit and the
Gallery is intended TO be worthy and enduring
ument to the great Of the Republic, whose
achievements and fame constitute the chief glory of
the nation. We hope that every lover of Art, and
friend of glorious Union, will respond to APP
peal for encouragement and aid in commendablc an
undertaking. that It's publication may make an in
he progress of American Art, and by grouping the
nstrious Of the Union together, consolidate il
still more firmly.
As no work OF this kind has appeared in Amenca,
and the prices they sustain in Europe would place il
beyond the reach Of most of our citizens, the publish
ers have resolved 10 merit large circulation, by
charging very low price. They have, therefore,
established the following

II is designed to make it equal to any Weekly
sheet in the Union for its general interest. In
tone and sentiment, it is Southern--its conductors
Virginians, and they hope to merit and re-
ceive the encouragement of their fellow citizens.
They enter upon no mere speculation in their en-
terprize, nor are their views and opinions shaped
merely to catch the popular breeze. From edu-
cation, from position, from association, from in
terest, from choice, they are Southern men. Their
defence Of Southern rights is defence of them
selves and all they hold dear;-that it has been
warm unremitting, and far as their capacity al
lowed, vigorous, no man who has read their sheet
will deny. To doubt that it will continue to be
