Tbe porch is of equal ex- tent with one of the sides, and is projected sixteen feet, in front of which is a portico of four fluted columns of Grecian Doric : this portico is crowned with a pedi- ment, surmounted by a plain attic. A tower rises from the centre of the attic, which in- cludes the belfry. The first story of the steeple is an octagon, surrounded by eight columns and a circular pedestal and entablature ; an attic, above this, gradually diminishing by three steps or gradins, supports ...a sec- ond range of Corinthian columns, with an entablature and balustrade ; from this, the ascent in a gradual dim- inution, forms the base of the spire, which is crowned with a ball and vane. The entire height is one hun- dred and ninety feet. Inside the house, the ceiling is supported by four Ionic columns connected above their entablature by four arches of moderate elevation ; in the angles, pen- dants, or fans rising from a circular horizontal ceiling, decorated with a centre flower. Between the arches and walls are grains springing from the cornice, sup- ported by Ionic pilasters between the windows.
