As I had distinguished the re- cess from the south wing, the omission to appro-' priaie for that part appeared to forbid its erection. Piut the plaii of the building was necessarily such, tliat the whole area of the south wing was requir- ed for the Hall of tlie House of Representatives. The external wails therefore could receive no sup- T* ( 15 ) port from internal walls : — The south, ea^ west walls had been built so solidly and were so strengthened in the angles by the stair cases of the gal...leries, that there could be no danger of their fi:ivin2: wav to the pressure of the vaults, —- but the north wall which, in relation to the whole building, is an internal wall, and the support of w^hich depended upon the recess, had not been calculated to stand alone. It v/as already carried up one story, and no alteration cf consequence could be made Yet the intended thickness of the upper part was increased, and this wail was, be« fore the ere6\ion of the recess during the present year, the most extraordinary piece of iiiasonry, which I hav c- ever seen in any countify, — being an unsupported mass of 120 feet in length, 80 feet in height, and at an average not 4 feet in thickness.
