has been erected the present magnificent
edifice, Castle Howard, the seat of the
Earl of Carlisle, built by Sir John Van-
burgh, in the year 1714, and which is,
unquestionably, one of the most princely
mansions in the kingdom; it contains a
noble collection of pictures and statues,
amongst which, that chef-d’oeuvre of
Annibal Caracci, the three Marys, is
eminently conspicuous. The park and
pleasure grounds correspond with the
grandeur of the house, and are orna-
mented with several elegant structures.

building, 90 feet in height, and 50 in
diameter; over the vault is a chapel,
surmounted by a dome: in the park is
an obelisk, erected in 1714, to comme-
morate the victories of the Duke of
Marlborough; and at a proper dis-
tance is an appropriate monument to
the memory of a still greater hero,

Nelson, inscribed in letters of gold,

Copenhagen, Trafalgar. The victories
of Queen Anne’s general, we have lived
to see surpassed; to the glories of the
naval commander—what rival has ever
approached ?
