The part destroyed, it is thought, contained a third niche, and completed the structure; the remaining portion-seems in such a condition as to be likely to fall with the first earthquake. lIany parts of the marble are covered, not to say defaced, with names of travellers. The name of an artist, Romaldi I think, who travelled with Mr. Dodwell, is, with an unpardonable vanity, written up in half a dozen places. A picture taken from this spot, would comprehend all the south-west of the city, ' and, with the annexed sketch, complete the view of Athens.-Here the Venetians, under Morosini, had also a mortar, and one of the bombs fired from it was fatal to some of the sculpture 'on...
