MARCH 21st, 1864 GONDOLAS AND GONDOLIERS • The Venice correspondent of the Boston Advertiser writes as follows: ' On a small canal, not far from the railroad station,: the gondoliers show you a house, by no means notable, except for the noble statue of a knight, which occupies a niche in one cor ner, as the house of Othello. It was once the house of the patrician family Moro a name well known in the annals of the Republic, and one which, it has been suggested, misled Shakespeare into the creation of a Moor of Venice. Whether this is possibly the fact, and whether there is any tradition of the tragic in cident in the history of the Moro family similar to that upon which the play is founded, I do not know; but it is certain that the story of Othello, very nearly as Shakespeare tells it, is •popularly known in Venice; and the gondoliers have fixed upon the Casa Moro in question, as the edifice best calculated to give satisfaction to strangers in search of the True and the Memorable. The statue, which is worthy of Donatella, is happily darkened by time, and thus serves admirably to represent Othello's complexion, and to place beyond the shadow of a doubt the fact of his residence in the house. Indeed, what can you say to the gondolier, who, in answer to your cavils concerning the latter, points to the knight, with the convinc ing declaration, "There is his statue!" One day I was taken to see this house, in company with some friends, and when it had been victoriously pointed out, as usual, we asked meekly, Who was Othello ? icOthello, Signori," answered the gondolier," was a general of the Republic, in the old times. Be was an African, and black; but nevertheless the State valued him, and he beat the Turks in many battles. Well, Signori, this general Othello had a very young and beautiful wife, and his wife's cousin (sic) Cassio was his ma jordomo, or as some say his lieutenant. But after awhile, happens along (capita) another soldier of Othello, who wants Cassio's employ ment and so accuses him to the general of cor rupting his wife. Very well, Signori! With out thinking an instant,Othello, being made so, fiew into a passion (ii riscaldo la testa) and killed his wife • and then when her innocence came out he killed himself and that liar; and the State confiscated his goods, he being a very rich man. There has been a tragedy written about all this, you know." as But how is it called ? Who wrote it ?" "Oh! in regard to that, then, I don't know. Some Englishman." “Slaskipeare ?” "I don't know; Signori. But, if you doubt what I tell you, go to any bookseller, and say, 'favor me with the tragedy of Othello'. He will give it you, and there you will find it all written out just as I tell it." This gondolier added further to the authenti city of his story, by showing us the house of Cassio near the Rialto bridge, and I have no doubt he would also have pointed out that of lag°, if we had wished it. But as a general thing the lore of the gondo Hers is not rich nor very great. They are a lo quacious and a gossipping race, but they love better to have a quiet chat at the tops of their voices, as they loaf idly at the ferries, or to scream repartee across the Grand Canal, than to tell stories. All history that relates to localities, they are sufficiently versed in to find the places for stiangers, but beyond this they trouble themselves as little with the past as with 'the future. Three tragic legends, however, they know and will tell with the most amusing effect, namely : The first of these legends is that of a sau sage-maker who flourished in Venice some centuries ago, and who improved the quality of the broth which the luganeheri make of their scraps and sell to the gondoliers, by cutting up into it now and then a child of one of the neighbors. He was finally detected by a gondo lier who discovered a little finger in his broth, and being brought to justice, was dragged through the city at the heels of a wild horse. The second is the innocent Baker-boy, who `was put to death on suspicion of having mur dered a noble in whose heart was found a dag ger fitting a. sheath which the baker had found in the street, on the morning of the murder, and kept in his possession. Many years after wards, a malefactor who died in Padova, con fessed the murder, and thereupon two lamps were lighted before a shrine in the, western fagade of St. Mark's—one for the murdered nobleman's soul, and the other for that of the innocent boy. Such is the gondolier's story, and the lamps BUM burn every night before the shrine from dark till dawn, in witness of its truth. The Venetian poet Da,ll' Omar° has woven the story into a beautiful and touch ing tragedy; but the poet is still to be born who shall take from the gondoliers their Veneranda, Porta,and place that historic figure on romantic literature. Veneranda Porta was a lady of the dayi of the Republic, between whom and her husband existed an incompatibility. This was increased by the course of Signora Porta in taking a lover, and it at last led to the assassi nation of its object by the paramours. The head of the murdered linsband was found in one of the canals, and being exposed, as the old custom was, upon the granite pedestal at corner of St. Mark's church, it was recognized by his brother, who found among the papers en which the long hair was curled, fragments of a letter he had written to the deceased. The crime was traced to the paramours, and being brought before the Ten, they were both con demned to be hanged between the columns of the Piazzetta. The gondolier-historiographers relate that when the sentence was pronounced, Veneranda said to the chief of the Ten, "But as for me this- sentence will never be carried. out. You cannot hang . a woman. Uonsider the impropriety I" The Venetian rulers were wise men in their generation, and far from being b rulked by this question of delicacy, the chief replied, solving it, clly dear you shall be hanged in my breeches." Cou pared with the truculent hackmen who prey upon the traveling public in all other cities of the civilized world, the gondoliers are eminently intelligent and amiable. Rogues ues they are, of course, for small dishonesties are the breath in the nostrils of common carriers by land or water, everywhere; but the tr ic ker • r of the gondoliers is so good-natured and simple that it can hardly offend. A. very ordinary H. V. XoCULLY jocular sagacity defeats their profoundest put- - poses of swindling, and no etre' enjoys their exposure half so much as themselves, while the faintest prospect of'future employment purifies them of every trait of dishonesty. The immediate' goal of every gondolier's ambition is to serve, no matter for how short a time, an Inglese, by which generic title all foreigners except Germans are known to him. The Inglese, whether he be English, American, or Russian, is apt to make the tour of the whole city in a gondola, and to give handsome buona mane at the end, whereas your Tedesco frugally walks to every place accessible by land, or when, in a party of six or eight, he takes a gondola, plants himself upon the letter of the tariff, and will give no more than the rate fixed by law. The number of private gondolas owned in . Venice _is not very great. The custom is rather to hire a gondolier with his boat. The exclusive use of the gondola is thus secured, and the gondolier gives his services as a do mestic when off his special duty. He waits at table, goes marketing, takes the children to school, and serves the ladies as footman, at the usual rate of five francs a day, himself paying the proprietor of the gondola, about a franc daily ler the boat. In former times, when Venice was rich and prosperous, most families kept two or three gondolas, and what with this service, and the numerous gala-days of the Republic,when the whole city took boat for the Lido, or the Giudecca, or Murano, and the gondoliers were allowed to exact any pay they could, they were a numerous and prosperous class. BUt these times have passed from Venice forever, and though the gondoliers are still, counting the barcaivorof the Giudecca and Lido some thousands in number, there are comparatively few young men among them, and their gains are meagre. It is true that the gondolier loves best of everything a clamorous quarrel, carried on with the canal between him and his antagonist, and next to this; he loves to spend' his leisure at the ferry or traghetto in talking of eating and of money, in which be does not differ from any of his fellow-citizens in choice of topics. I have seldom caught a casual expression from passers in the streets of Venice which did not relate in some way to gold Napoleons, zwanzi gers, florins or soldi, or else to wine and pole nia.--I note this trait in the - Venetians which Goldoni observed in Milanese a hundred years ago, and which I incline to believe is common to all Italians. The gondoliers talk a great deal in hyperbole and figures, and their jocose chaff is quite inscrutable even to some classes of Venetians. With foreigners, to whom the silence and easy progress of the gondola gives the opportunity to talk, they are fond of using a word or two of French. They are quick at repar tee, and have a clever answer ready for most occasions. The skill with which the gondoliers manage their graceful craft, is always admired by strangers who come to Venice, and is certainly remarkable. The gondola is very long and slender, and rises high from the water at either end. Both bow and stern are sharp, the former being ornamented with a deeply serrated blade of steel, which it is the pride of gondoliers to keep bright as silver; and the poop having a small platform, not *far behind the cabin, on which the gondolier stands when he rows. The danger of collision, has always obliged Vene tian boatmen to face the bbw, and the stroke with the oar, (for the gondolier uses only a single oar,) is made by pushing and not by pulling. A surprising degree of art is thus required to keep the gondola's head straight, with all the strokes made on one side, and the sculling return of the oar blade, preparatory for each now stroke, is ex tremely difficult to effect. Under the hands of the gondolier, however, the gondola seems a living thing, full of grace and winning move ment. The wood-work of the little -cabins Is elaborately carved; the cabin 'is usually tar nished with mirrors, and . the seats are luxu riously cushioned. The sensation of the gon dola's progress, felt by the occupant of the cabin, as he falls back uptap these cushions, may be,described, to the female apprehension at least, as "too divine." The cabin is re movable at pleasure, and is generally taken off and replaced by awnings in summer. But in the evening,- when the fair Venetians go out in their gondolas to take the air, even this awning is dispensed with, and the long, lithe boat glides darkly down the Grand Canal, bearing a dazzling freight of white tulle, pale-faced, blacked-eyed beauty, and flashing jewels.
