W HEN I delivered my last lectures in this Academy, it was my intention to give a practical sketch of the history and development of architecture in this country from the earliest rise of civilisation among the races of which our nation is composed, down, perhaps, to the period of the revival of Classic architecture. As, how- ever, such continuous history has been disturbed by the omission of my lectures last season, and as few now present heard, and fewer, probably, now remember, those lectures, it is not my intention to continue my former course, but, adopting as my stand-point the stage at which I had then arrived, to digress into an inquiry into some of the practical and artistic principles of the class of architecture of whose development I was then treating.
