ENLARGEMENT oF THE CAPITOL

ENLARGEMENT OF THE CAPITOL
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, I"
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 a separate and distinct building within
the enclosure TO the east of the building.
The committee do not desire to prescribe any
condition, 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
mitee reserve to themselves the right to form such
plan by the adoption of parts of different plans
submitted, should such course be found necessary; in
which event, the committee also reserve TO them
selves the right to divide or apporon 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.

EDITED BY AN ASSOCIATION OF LITERARY MEN.
TTNDER this title will be published, during the
" year 1851, twenty Hour Portraits and Biographi-
cal Sketches OF American citizens Who have become
llustrious 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 il worthy
mad enduring monument to the great men OF the Re
public.
Mr. Brady has been many wears engaged, at great
expense, N collecting Portraits ior National Cal
lery, and those which being engraved for this
work are believed TO be superior to any that have
been taken In the accomplishment. of this great
object he has experienced the utmost courtesy and
encouragement from distinguished men MIR. Brady's
reputation has been too long established to need any
recommendation. His daguerreotypcs are in the
highest sense the works OF art, glowing with the soul
Of the living countenance.
The drawings and engravings Of D'Avignon have
been pronounced by Europeans OF taste to be fully
equal and in respects superior TO those of the
best artists OF London and Paris and every inn
preston in this Gallery will be taken under his i'm
mediate supervision The Typography viii be exc
cuted carefully and in as superb style as the en-
cravings themselves. The entire work win be on
the finest imperial folio paper, l6 by % sches made
expressly Tor this purpose
This work has nothing sectional in its scope il
will therefore be comprehensive in its spirit The
names OF those men only admitted, whose talents
and public services have won for them honorable
fame throughout 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 mon
ument to the great men 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 our APP
peal for encouragement and aid in so commcndabe an
undertaking, that its publication may make an era In
he progress of American Art, and by grouping the
iliusrious Of the Uaiop together consolidate i,
still more firmly
As no work of this kind has appeared In Amenca,
and the prices they sustain in Europe would place
beyond the reach of most OF citizens the publish
ers have resolved TO merit large circulation, by
charging very low price. They have, therefore,
