 THE ICONOGRAPHY OE/THE BATTERY AND 
 CASTLE /GARDEN 
 
 n 
 
 THE view of the Government/House 
 here reproduced from the/plate in 
 the New York Magazine of/ January, 
 1795, is taken from the nori^west corner 
 of the Battery near the end/x>f Greenwich 
 Street. It exhibits a parj/of the city and 
 some portion of the gren and walk on the 
 Battery. 
 
 John Drayton's /Tour Through the 
 Northern and Eastern States in 1794" 
 contains a prett/ copper-plate engraving 
 of the Battery' from a drawing by the 
 author himsett. It is an important little 
 picture in Jfae iconography of New York 
 City, for n is the only one in existence, so 
 far as Lrcnow, which shows the Battery at 
 this jrarticular time from the landward 
 side. This view is accompanied by the 
 following interesting narrative from the 
 
 pen of ou^r distinguished visitor from 
 South Carolina: 
 
 "After passtog these islands we came 
 opposite the Bakery, which is at the ex- 
 treme point of thV town, and is situated 
 much like that whicVwas at White Point 
 at Charlestown. It nas no merlons or 
 embrasures, but the guns\( which are thir- 
 teen in number) are placed>upon carriages 
 on a stone platform en barbette, some few 
 feet above the level of the \ater. Be- 
 tween the guns and the water isy, public 
 walk, made by a gentle decline frVn the 
 platform, and going round the ground 
 upon which the Battery is placed. SoHne 
 little distance behind the guns two ro~\ 
 of elm trees are planted, which, in a short" 
 time, will afford an agreeable shade. The 
 flag staff rises from the midst of a stone
