MAGNIFICENT H1ANSION.
The Eandsomest Private Residence In the
South M1nutely Described--Mr. 6. w.
Williams Newly Erected Establish
meut in Charleston.

Probably the handsomest and
most complete private residence
in the South, and one Of the hand
soonest in this country, is now
nearly completed. Reference is
had to the magnificent building on
the east side Of Meeting street,
near the Battery, designed mainly
by Mr.. W. P. Russell for Mr.. L.
W. Williams. By the hard times
since the war our people have
been debarred from exercising
their taste in rebuilding Of pala-
tial dwellings, and have had little
opportunity Of seeing modern
displays ofmagnifcence. On this
account, and because the structure
is an ornament to the city, it has
been thought that a somewhat
full description Off will prove OF
interest.
The building faces west, and
stands in a lot which fronts on
Meeting street one hundred and

made to oscillate the pendulum;

assertion to make, that, were it
not for the unavoidable wearing

amount of friction, the clock would

dures. This clock is hung against
a board partition, with all the
works exposed, subject to the jar.
