LETTER FROM ITALY
Corroaportdowo of the PUtZooroh Gazofte.
FLogmf az, Sept 20Lb. 1505
In my last letter I announced to you my ar
rival in this capital, and my Intention of laying
before you some of my notes of travel and ob
servations upon the progress and position of
the people of this country, until it would be
time for me to return to my own deld of occupa
tion in Paris. Among the first incidents which
met my eye as I entered i [sly, were one or two,
which, though Wafting in themselves, are not
altogether unwo rthy - of remembering, and one
of which in particular may have a peculiar in
tercet for American readers. I was walking
through the main street of the little town of
Lugano, sheeted on the beautifal lake of the
same name, when my eye was attracted by a
nell known portrait suspended in front of a
small book store, under the picturesque arcades
of the chief - thoroughfare. The portrait was
that of Abraham Lincoln; and you . will
not wonder ',that the sight alone
of the familiar features arrested one's
footsteps- In that mud t, mediaeval,
out-of-the-way place, looking round upon a
scene so wholly foreign to that other
world of which the late President of the United --
States was so vividly the personification. In a
large and comparatively modern looking town,
like Milan, Naples or Turin for instance, our
world, of course, has felt little surprise to see a
tribute paid to the world-wide celebrity of the
great martyr of American independence by the
exhibition of a handsome paint of him in a
plate glass window. The Paris boulevard them
selves could offer no more attractive object to
the theory or gazers who pass along them: v .lkt
to meet with the same thing to an obscure, old
fashioned little provincial town of Italy was
more singular, one especially where the
object In quest; m was, as it were, out
of piece, beside a Befell bookseller's
store, %%here no other engravings were exposed
for sale, and where it was evidently set on, not
as a matter of barter or gain, but as ap object of
veneration and respect, just as a household god
or a Madonna. I went op by en irresistible ins.
pulse of respect and regret to look at tt ; and I
was glad I old so, for I found beneath it in writ.
log, and in Italian, an inscription which snorted
that the little portrait had in fact been attached
to his house by the owner, like a sacred imago,
at once a testimony of his own faithand feelings,
and an appeal to those of his felicity citizens.—
, "This," said the inscription, "is a porzrali. of
Abraham Lincoln, sec: so long as the sun shall
shine on men, so lour shall the acme of him who
redeemed four millions of slaves fr,ar
captivity, of him who, clutching to his
strong breast the laser, of the husericsa
Cniou, fell a victim to horrible assassination
—so long shall his name resound great, vene
rated and blessed throughout Use world." I have
translated the writ Inc almost verbatim, and in
all its nervous simplicity. lint is not this tree
fame, and would not en eqaestrian statute, in
marble or bronze, standing op In the great
sonata of &ADO magnificent city, have spoken
so eloquently in praise of Lincoln as this hum
ble tribute paid to his memory and Ms actions
by this little bookseller nodes the obscure por
ticoes of Lugano? I am right glad to see it
there, and for two reasons: first, it showed
how really worfd-wide Lincoln's fettle had be
come; and secondly, because it was a symptom
of the attention with which the Italian pimple
are now beginning to observe the movement and
principles of modern action and clivilzation. A
nadim which shows itself so active to what is
passing on the other side of the Atlantic, cannot
fail, ere long, to profit by the lessons which are
there taught It. The illustrious 3tanin told his •
countrymen of Ventre that the way to Liberty
lay through the blood of martyrs, and the Ital.
ions can tied no more eloontrat illustration of
suck a doctrine than In the death of Lincoln.
