FROM THE CUPoLA
The view of the surrounding country is
most charming and inspiriting. The ele-
vated site of the building commands an ex-
tensive range of rolling hills, fruitful val
leys, rich woodlands and meandering
streams, the whole forming q panorama OF
rare beauty which cannot fail TO be appre-
ciated and enjoyed by any who look out
upon it. ss4 sag 7!sHE
We thought after making tour of the
large building that it was complete-that
nothing was wanting. Father Clarkson,
however, quietly, informed US that during
the coming season extensive improvements
will be made, consisting in part of COM
modious
CHAPEL AND CONVENT,
Which win be added to the west front of the
present building, forming an L. This will
complete the principal building of the
Academy. ~ a,,aps,,raa
Are spacious, aud when properly improved
will not be excelled in beauty anywhere in
the State. Immediately in front of the
south entrance to the building there are
two never falling springs of excellent wa
ter, and it is in contemplation to set apart
about three acres of ground enclosing the
springs, in which beautiful fish pond will
be arranged nu0Q rgcafl 1evni1
THE WORKMANSHIP OF THE BUILDING.
We cannot close without referring to the
style of workmanship which in every de-
partment is of the most finished descrip-
ton. Especially is this the case with the
plastering, which was done by Charles
Nagle, Esq. We certainly think that it
would be simply impossible to improve on
this part OF the work. So even and mar
BILE like are the plain surfaces, so delicately
are the lines followed, and so accurately
are the figures drawn in the ornamental
work, that it but challenges competition.
Mr.. Nagle is certainly master workman
in his branch of business U * E q q
IN CONCLUSION,
We refer with extreme pleasure to our brief
visit, and will not soon forget the very cor
dial reception extended to us by Rev. S. A.
Clarkson, .Sister Superior Rose Lynch,
Sister Agnes, Mrs. Theodore Leonard and
many others.
