ARCHITECTURE.

The subscriber has removed his family to this country, and fixed his residence in Nashville, where he offers his services to design and execute Public and Private Buildings. Gentlemen in the country can be furnished with Ground Plans and Elevations, by sending the size of the intended building.

HUGH ROLAND.
Opposite the Presbyterian Church.

N. B. H. R. will execute in the country, or furnish Drafts on a large scale for the Carpenter.

We are acquainted with H. Roland as Architect of the Masonic Hall, and are of opinion he is adequate to any business in this line.
