The building is in the form of paraIelogram,
one hundred and forty by two hundred and seventy
feet, surrounded by Terrace seventeen feet in
width and six feet in height, tagged with stone,
with flights of steps in the centre Of each front,
opposite the doors of entrance.
There are twenty-eight Fluted Columns, four
feet eight inches 10 diameter, ornamenting the four
POrticoes, with most deliberately wrought capitals.
The North and South Porticoes are finished with
pedments, containing ceilings Of stone, and the
East and West PorticOes are surmounted by para
pets. Those of the North and South are Octo

The water is conveyed from the cutters Of the
roof by means Of cast iron pipes eight inches in
diameter, buried in the walls.
II The glass, which is..ofdouble thickness, is Of
superior quality, and was made at the works near
Knoxville, East Tennessee. Indeed, all the mate
rails were furnished by the State of Tennessee.
The whole building is heated by furnaces com.
muncating with hot air fues within the wall.
Much credit is due the Architect, Francis W.
Strickland for the skill and taste which he has dis,
played in the completion of this magnificent build

neighborhoo1 Of Nashville, the blocks of stone
weighing from six 20 TIA tons In the centre Of

Of the roof are Of wrought iron, having a span Of
the whole width Of the building, being supported
bv the interior walls at the North end aud by the
columns OF the Southern division OF the building,
