ENLARGEMENT OF THE CAPITOL

L'NLhRGEMENI OF IHE CAPIIOL.-
IL The Committee on Public Buildings of the
Senate, having been authorized by resolution Of
that body " 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 Capitol,
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 10 prescribe any
condition, that may restrain the free exercise of
architectural taste ard judgment, but they would
prefer, that whatever plan may be proposed may
have such reference TO. and correspondence with
the present building as TO preserve the general
symmetry of the entire structure, when complete.
Although but one plan can be adopted, the COM
mittee to themselves the right to form such
plan by the adoption of parts of different plans
submtted should such course 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 to
be awarded for the whole, to those whose plans
may in part be adopted, according to the relative
importance and merit Of each part adopted

diffusion of cultivated and refined taste througnsut
the communty-and it embraces in its ample
folds ever species of intelligence that can tend to
this result.
Original Contributions,
from many of the ablest writers in the South
chiefly occupy It's columns, but not to the exclu-

TTNDER this title viii be published, during the
~ year 1850, twenty-four Portraits and Biographi-
cal Sketches OF American citizens who have become
lustrious in the service OF the country Every por
ton of the work will receive the most careful atten
ton, and nothing will be spared to render it worthy
mad enduring monument to the great men OF the Re
public.
Mr.. Brady has been many years engaged, at great
expense, ~ collecting Portraits Tor National Gal
lery, and those which being engraved for this
work are believed to be superior to any that have
ever been taken In the Accomplishment. OF this grca,
object he has experienced the utmost courtesy and
encouragement from distinguished men Mr.. Brady's
reputation has been too long established to need any
recomme ndaion. His daguerreotypes are in the
highest sense the works o art glowing with the soul
of the living countenance
The a.vings and engravings of D'Avgnon 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 i'm
mediate supervision The Typography will be exc
cutcd as carefully and in superb style as the en-
cravings themselves. The entire work will be on
the finest imperial folio paper l6 by % irchcs, rade
expressly for this purpose
This work has nothing sectional in ITS scope il
win therefore be comprehensive in its spirit. The
names of those only admitted whose talents
and public services have won for them an honorable
fame throug bout the nation. Each Of the great de-
partments Of life will 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 our glorious Union, Will respond to APP
peal for encoura cement and aid in commendablc
undertaking, that It's publication may make an era in
he progress of American Art, and by grouping the
ilnstrious OF the Union together consolidate 1T
still more firmly.
As no work of this kind has appeared in America,
and the prices they sustain in Europe would place il
beyond the reach OF most OF citizens, the publish
ers have resolved to merit large circulation, by
charging very low price They have, therefore,
