In the Gardens; Field Marshal W ide lived and
died In a npiehborinij bou-.e. Painting, sculp
ture and urchiteciuie were studied and much
talked about on this f-pot. that is now of tho urn
artidU'taiid the building, which s'ands for awhile
unaltered, has a pleasant -refined look about
it which, H not of tho b-'.st, is pood. A little
while has yet to pass ere the (tont of this place,
must undergo hancs that iH be wondrous if
rot admirable; aud old BurllntriU Houe, which
Pope eujoveJ Hoearth would have Hayed, it he
could and wheie the third Duke of Portland
lived during his famous nvGHtry will never
again be r ee n as Kcut Intended it should be. As
to the last-named tenaut of B.irliiiRton House,
be was of the. thirty, one of whom was said to
have been Juuius. If this were but truly paid !
Think, had this graceful stairc-v-re and these
handsome eld-fashioned chambers been inha
bited and owned by the terrible "umbra" him
self I In some little closet here, it was thought,
was kept the tiaymg-knitu, as Mr. Bro it-nine
Hptly tailed the pen of Junius. Thus mueii
about the locality, of which much more might
be written.
The new Royal Acndeny stand- in that part
of Burlington House Gardens watch is immedi
ately behind the old bouse, so close indeed to
this building that its entrance, will be through
its cenire, and by means of tho hall, doorway,
and staiicase, and an enlarged arid converted
window which lormerly oecup'-ed the head of
tho first flight of step'. This tli-j-ht, which has
now wlnps branching on tlu right and
left to the upper floors o! the house,
will be at a mttire time extended, for the
beLefit or the Koyal AcaJemy, to the whole
breadtb of the entry, to as to make a much,
more convenient if not so elegant an approach,
its now exists, to tho-e suits of exhibition and
lecture-rooms of the new edifice which are on
the first story, having benca'h them the schools
and otiicn of the Academy. The public will
bave access to these rooms by means ot a
covered way now built, and travoi ing the court
yard of Burlington House from the Piccadilly
side of the site. In plain, this upper lloor cou
ist of thiee parallel lines of rooms, of which
those on the south, or Piccadilly side, on the
north, or garden side, comprise live rooms, com
municating throughout. The centre of the thre-?
lines la occupied by the Water Color Boom, on
the west; the Great Boom next, towards the
cast; the Octagonal Saloon, which supplies an
axis to the whole series of galleries; tne Lecture
Hall aud a room on the eus-t, which answers to
the Water-Color Boom on the opposite tide.
These fast and West Booms, which are com
paratively narrow, afford means for viuitors to
circulate in without entering the three cham
bers which are intermediate to them. The
rooms are. with one exception, lighted from the
roof, and their proportions are ample for the dis
play of pictures. The wall surface ot the whole
is about double that of the gallery in Trafalgar
Square. On this point of increased accommoda
tion, It may be well to state that the Academic-tans
are under no compulsion to cover the
whole ot their walla with pictures. The plan of
the structure, as. the reader wilt uudurstaud
from our account, will permit part of the new
; suit being shut off from the rest, without pre
venting the circulation ot visitor. We say this,
because it appears to be expected by many that
every picturesent for ehtoition will be placed
on the walls, and therefore that there wi! I be
less hiince of rejections of pictures happenlnir,
whatever may be their character or merits, ho
lar is it from being likely that a mere omnium
gatherum ot woks of Art w ill be made in the
nearly Cuished galleries, that we believe the
Academic.aiis are more liaely to raise than
lower their standard of approbation anl
selection.
By giving the dimension ot the new cham
ber?, we ball afford a better ni'-ai s th in o her
wise of judging of the character and capacity
of the whole. Of the ton hern liue ot rive
rooo:s, the measurement are 4uft. 0 in. by 32 ft.
6 in. for the floor of each eh-n.ber. Those on
the i.ortberu line are of the tauie size
as the above. The height ol each of these
rooms is 25 ft. to the cornice, anove which
the root isforaied by covioj, in heitht 11 tr. .1
m. The height of the lantern or skylight over
this Is 4 ft. 2 in., and, in all, anout 40 t . Tne
-window openings are, in plan. 2(i ft. by l'i It. ti
in. The heiahtof the entablature is 4 11 Win.
Of the five rooms on ibe eoutn-'i-u line, flrit in
the centre, which is at the entrance to tee wh jlc.
is appropiia'ed to sculpture; ul-o th Oot.ien al
Saloon, which is loftier tbau the o!Ucr cham
bers, in the centre line.
In the centre Hue, the domed Octagonal
Saloon just mentioned is 4J it. acros. in plan;
in neiaiit it is 27 ir. 10 tne corn.c -. 1 it. in. to
the sill of the dome; 12 ft. C in. is the height of
the openinaa: above this 11 i ti If. to the sum
mlt. Tne Ureat or Western t.'oom is 0 ft. 6 in.
by 43 ft. in plan: in heigh', K7 It. to th'topof
the cornice. The linger dimension ot the
Water Color Boom is on a line of 43 ft , corres
ponding with the shorter line ol ibe o'rent Boom,
rnnulug north and south, to as to connect the
north and south lines of ihnin-i. The width
of the Water Color Boom is?,jf:. The ceiling
