The Tomb Of CharIes Carroll, Of Carroll.

A woman, writing from Ellicotts Mills,
thus describes the ancient seat of Carroll, ,,Of
Oarrollton-- -Doughoregan Manor--and his
tomb. The mansion is distant about fifteen
miles from Baltimore:
Entering the gateway we drove through a
noble avenue, planted on each side with
trees Of every variety of kind and foliage,
which ten years hence will be in their prime,
and soon found ourselves in front of the
Carroll mansion, which is long, comfort
able two-story building, terminated ct the
north end by the handsome chapel, which
has become famous as the repository of the
remains Of the gallant old signer Of the Dec
laration of Independence.
His tomb is set in the wall on the left of
the altar, and presents q shield and scroll of
white marble, on which is carved in relief q
pen and roll of parchment, surrounded by
thirteen stars; O Latin inscription, appro-
pirate to his great act, appears on o scroll in
the center. Below this are some figures in
basso retievo, representing Fame with in
Verted torch, and History guarding fu-
nereal urn. su
The chapel is cruciform, and contains a
handsome marble altar, some fine old pic
lures, good organ, and is decorated with
rich and beautiful windows Of stained glass
The floors of the twowings of the chapel are
elevated to a level with the floor of the
sanctuary, and. contains some fourteen OF
sixteen pews, which ere occupied during the
religious ceremonies by the family of Mr.
Carroll and their friends. The body of the
church is paved with brick, and contain!
about forty commodious pews, where his
slaves, who are carefully Instructed in the
Catholic faith, sit and kneel.
