The ; stone of which this entire building is composed, was, aft er the most delibérate and careful research, sclected from the quarry at Liule Falls, Patterson, New Jersey. It has been analvzed by our Chemists, and found to possess most largely the requisite qualities of durability and imperviousness to rain, frost or heat. Lords Morpeth, Ashbúrton, and many other distinguished travelers, have declared that this specimen of stone exceeds in firmness of grain and general qualities nny stone known to thé architocts of Englnnd. We ascend this part of the building by a winding stairs, which lead us into the-dock chamber, where thesolidity of the stone work again strikes the eye and excites admiration; there is to be a clock here with threedials of nine feet in diameter.gjain ascending we arrive at the bclfry, ir which there are cighi large windows 01 Gothic design, according with the gonereral character of the building.
