di Gelizano. TWestarted early in, the •morning
—by half-past 6 o'clocik. , The sky was a little
covered, and a short shower freshened up the
vegetation, ds . well as the sirocco-heatea'air of
the preceding days.' Our drive , was not the.
direct one - to Genzano; my friend chose a cir
cuitous one, thathe might,.seenre pretty views
and rural roads. 'We went out of the Gate of
San Lorenzo, in ' order to ; piss between' the
two parallel walls of gigantic masonry which
form the Claudian Aqueduct; took Grotto
Perrata, on our way to'Marima; - skirted Castel
Gandolfo? and 'reached Albano by 10 o'clpek.
This_drive, you see"; must have been r.very
charming, as it took in so many fine points,,
and the early moaning hours added greatly, to
its loveliness. • •
Marino is picturesquely situated on a height
above the plain, ou the brow of one of the off
shoots of Monte Cavo. Formerly the roads to
and from the town were very narrow, steep
and 'dangerous, but now: there are fine and
broad new Ones. At_ the foot of the hill on
which Marino sits so gracefully,is the old Latin
valley through which runs the "Acqua Fer
rentina," the source of which is the fountain of
the same, into which fountain, you will re
member, if you are as familiar with Livy as I
happen to be just now : Tarquinius Superbus
had Turnus placed under iron Brat ngs and
huge stones until he was drowned. It was in
this valley the old Latin tribes used to hold
their meetings. It is a beautifully wooded glen,
and the fine road to Castel Gandolfo leads out of
it. Theviews of Marino,which we caught now
and then between the trees, as we descended
tne..a. - equaurvi...rrere bewitching. We crossed
through a road that wasisol - Obret..Trostuuted _up
ilexes. r --a ravishing bit of sylvan loveli
ness. Some of the old trees, which had be
come hollow at their roots, or thrown over by
the wind, had marble and stone supports built
under them. The grand old trunks rested on
the columns, and leaned their branches over
the sloping bill-side, looking even more grace
ful and effective than their younger and
Statelier fellows.
We ascended this beautiful road, and sud
denly Lake Albano burst on my sight quite
unexpectedly, We stopped the horses on the
tip of the crater which forms the basin of the
lake, and took a survey of the supposed sites
Alba Longa, the country round and the lake
itself—which we found to be a crater filled
with beautiful, cool, glittering water, that
sparkled . in the morning sun, instead of seeth
ing, burning lava.
Formerly the waters of this lake used to rise
and overflow its crater edge, but those grand
old earth-burrowers, the Romans, built a sub
terranean canal, called the Emissarium, in
sight of which we afterwards passed. This
tunnel carries all the waters that rise above its
proper level under the hill to La Mola, a mile
from.Albaub, whence the waters go to the Ti
ber by the stream which runs besides Vallerano
This Emissarium is a superb bit of masonry,
in some places nine-or ten feet high and three
or four yards wide.
If I had not so much to tell of the beautiful
flower Festa,l would stop longer at this ravish
ing spot, for it seemed to me I had never seen
any place so charming. There was the lovely
lake, six miles around in circuit, down upon
which we looked ms on a huge circular mir
ror;its famous shores of King Amulius;
"Of the greatlviun line,
Who reigned in Alba Longa,
On the throne of Aventine ;"
and over the lake rose Monte Cavo, the
highest of the Alban hills, on which once stood
the famous temple of Jove, built by that same
coming old Tarquinius Superbus whOplayed
the cruel trick on Tarnus, and in which the
solemn tvsemblies of the forty-seven cities
of the old Latin Confederation were
held. On our right the rich, glowing
Campagna reached out to the Mediterranean;
the sea s:hone ill the thr-uff distance like a sil
ver frame to this wide expanse of farms, vine
yards and woods. Hillocks of freshly-mciwn
bay lay on the fields ; scarlet poppies grew so
thickly every Where that they scented like a
flood of blood-red Wine poured out WI the
ground all kinds of vivid-hued wild flowers
peeped out and clambered up and down the
; the ferns nodded and waved about;
the nightingale snug in the tree branches, and

beautiful throbbing sky, and even the' whole

of peasants in various picturesque costumes
passed by, for the whole country round was in

At Gewalt()We found a friend waiting who
is intimate with Duke thesarini Sferl and,
therefore;had:the'poWer to tokens to ti e pal
ace find tie villa 0014114 At the entrance to
Genzano is a rural piazza,from which branches
off , a triple avenue of elms. The left leads to.
the Cainiceini Church, the right one through .
the . town Up to the Cathedral Church, and the
central goes :directly up to the. Palace; on the ,
left °Obis central avenue is the"villa and, its
grounds After Walking in the grounds and
loOldng again at niana's Mirror, Lake Nei*,
we felt : inipfitient to see the making
of, the flower carpet; so we proceeded
to• • the main ..htrees of the town,
which tuns, as I have said, from the church
down to the piazza entrance, More than a •
quarter of a mile iu length. Here we found a
curious scene. The centre of the street was
railed in from the side-walks by posts and
heaVy green garlands. Along this rail stood
a thick, living hedge of children, men and
women,dressedin the picturesque Genzano i and
"OPftreiPAl•XneS, Insido,ortams
the wonderful mosaic o fflowers. Every pro
prietor attends to the part of the street which
lies in front of his house.
Down the whole length of the street ex
tended the partly worked-up plan of floral
decoration. I walked with my companions
along the garland rail an I watched the pro
ceSS closely; then ascended into the first and
second floors of various houses at different
points, to see the marvellous effect. From
Hans Christian Andersen',s and other accounts,
I had imagined that flowers with stems were
woven together in some curious way, but I
found the manner very different. The ground
was first dusted over with fine sifted earth, on
which the designs were traced With chalk
lines.
These designs Were of various forms. A
pattern extended thirty or forty feet; one was
like a medallion carpet; it had a brilliant gold
colored star in the centre on a ground of red,
smaller stars in the corner, and around the
whole a broad border of green. And all these
were made with the petals of flowers! Large
barrels and baskets stood around, heaped up
full with petals of various flowers; sorted in
colors; brilliant. scarlet poppy leaves in one;
dazzling gold-colored butter-cups in another;
vivid blue larkspurs, anemones, rose-leaves,
red, pink and White, gilly flowers, lilies—every
colored Hewer that blooms—with cut grass; and,
still more curious, pots filled. with various
colored seeds.
Some designs represented prisons; some ara
besques, shaded and tinted as if done with a
brush; and, most curious of all, there were
heraldic devices and armorial emblazonments.
These last were sketched on huge sheets of
paper, which were fastened to the ground, and
the design filled in with seeds. I watched the
working of tie Pope's arms, which lay in front
of the balcony •from whence His Holiness was
tp look down 'oil the procession. The triple
crown and, cross keys were formed most curi
ously. could hardly believe that the result
would be successful. Fine seeds of vari
ous hues were poured' out . of king shovels
here and there on the design, and when I
looked down Upon it from an upper window
alter it was finished, it seemed to me like a bit
of :,cilfully embroider 4•4 tapestry. The founda
lion was of scarlet poppy petals. The cross
keys were beautifully shaded, and the triple
crown looked as if it had gay jewels set in it.
Cardinal Ant onelli's arms, surmounted by the
scarlet cap and tassels, was also wonderful in
its efleet, petals and seeds were combined, and
the 'ground-work was of vivid blue larkspur
petals.
The impression-produced-on-looking-up-or -
down the street was of a succession of rich
heavy Turkey carpets (for each design had its
heavy border), with here and there mats of
finely embroidered tapestry. Before and after
heaping the petals on the sifted dust; I noticed
that they sprinkled the 'WholeE with water,.
from large garden pots; thiS prevented the
- petals front -flying- ahouti - andkept-tlient:fresh-
The coloring surpassed anything I have ever
seen; it was, askians Christian Anderse" says,
in his Improvisolore, "It living
.flower carpet,""
a floor whose mosaic:" were flower
petals; and the brilliant hues surpassed
even Pompciian glory of color.
While the flower-workers were finishing
their floral decoration, we went to the C;esar
' ini Palace, and explored its rooms; It is a
fine, lofty, long marble building, of the early
part of the seventeenth century. The windows
• and balconies Of the , one end overlook Lako
Nord; those of the other command a view of
the vast C'esatini estates, which stretch out
across the. Canipagna to the Mediterranean.

old entrance, hall is being repaired, the cell- --
ings are freshly frescoed with the Sforza and
Colonna arms, and a superb broad marble
staircase is going up.
Old Genzano rims close up to the back part
of the palace; the present Duke intends to tear
away these old buildings and have a fine court
yard and stables. The villa gardens are sep
arated from the, palace/'by the long elm avenue.
The Duke has a right / to shut in this avenue
at the Piazza entrance, but according to the
spirit of the age it would be as impolitic as
ungracious. Moreover, this avenue, during the
long absence of the family fromt4is Genzano
palace, has become a sort-of p 4, r' one; so, to
obviate all difficulty, the Duke intends to open
an entrance to the palace at the end which
overlooks Lake Nemi, and throw a bridge
from this entrance over the side avenue into
the gardens, and thus the family will have a
private means of approach to the beautiful
grounds.
But the 'cannons are booming, the people's
shouts rise up, the Pope has arrived, and the
Flower Feast has begun. We hurried away
from the fancifully freScoed eqVuus of the
gardens, where we had gone to drink . some of
the rich red Oenzano wine and talk over the
Cmsarini Sforza romance.
'When we reached the flower street wo
found everything ready. We hastehed from.
one house to another, nail pushed hither
and thither through the gay crowd. The
Roman peasantry are very beautiful, and
are the best dressed laboring people in the
world, I fancy, especially on grand festas.

An Interesting Event.
A novel and most !interesting festive re
union, gratifying and creditable alike to the
employers and the employed, took place at
Steinway Hall on Saturday forenoon last,when
the workmen of Messrs. Steinway & Sons,
numbering over seven hundred men assembled
inthe hall, accompanied by a band of thirty
perforMers, to commemorate the fact that
"pianoforte- number twenty thousand" of the
firm's make had been completed, on which
occasion they were to be the recipients of a nag
nificent banner, presented to them by Messrs.
Steinway & Sons. The banner, a rich and elabo
rate masterpiece of artistic skill,was designed
by Mr. Henry Beck,the celebrated decorator of
Steinway Hall, and the work of art was com
pleted by Mrs. Francisca Klein ; it was pre
sented to the workmen with appropriate re
marks by Mr. Theodore Steinway, and en
thusiastically received by them. Mr. Burkard
responded on their behalf in an able speech.
An address was made by Mr. Abercrombie,
who has been with the firm since they com
menced business,who'gave a brief history of
the firm of • Steinwa,y & Sons, exhi
biting hoW, from an humble commence
ment seventeen years ago, when they
manufaCtured but one piano weekly, the
firm had within that comparatively brief
space of time, solely through the excellence of
their productions and skillful management, at
tained their present eminentposition, namely,
that of- having the most perfectly-arranged
and extensive establishment in the World,
regularly employing upward of seven hundred
skilled workmen, and turning out no less than
"sixty" grand, square and upright pianos
weekly,which are sent to all parts of the civil
ized world—the business of the firm exceed
ing-in magnitude that of the twelve largest
piano-forte manufacturers in Now York com
bined, as shown by the published sworn inter
nal revenue returns. That Messrs. Steinway
Sc Sons, after taking no less than thirty-five
first premiums in the United States, carried
oft the first prize at the. World's Fair in Lon
donin 1862; and at the greatest international
exhibition the world has over seen—that held
liirraxis in 1867,,,they. were. _awarded_the_first
of the Grand Gold Medals of Honor by tho
unanimous verdict of the International Jury,
who, in their- official report, fully confirmed'
and endorsed the suporiority of the Steinway
system, which is now being copied and
adopted by the leading manufacturers of. Eu
rope, many of whom bave sent • their sons to
New York to study this system of piano forte
manufacturing, at its headquarters; and that,
- not content _with _ this-- unprecedented Lime- -
cm in their legitimate business the Messre.
Steinway had, in erecting Steinway Hall,
created a beautiful temple of music and art,
worthy of the great metropolis of the Western
World, the locality of their business growth
and present eminence, and that every work- -
man present felt justly proud of the success of
the establishment wiiti which he was indivi
dually connected. Mr. William Steinway-re
sponded on behalf of the firinin a terse and
appropriate speech, on the couclusion.of which
the procession formed, and, headed by the
band, marched downßroadWay,. - through.
Broome street, and dowirthe Bowery to the
foot, of Market street, whence' it steamboat
conveyed them to the round of -their grand
picnic at Jones's Wood, where the rest of 'the
day was most pgreeably spent in social enjoy.
ment with their iainilies. The procession was
well- arranged am! imposing in appearance,
and created a marked sensation M it passed
through the several streets in its route; and
the whole affair, which -was , conducted with
enthusiasm on all siderf,%was equally creditable
to Messrs. their employes--

Ati A Fc..itritazEn.—Mr. John 'Wilson,'
of liridgVfoCumberland county, N. J., gaff e
at length his experience in using' marl as a
fertilizer, having seen it Stated that some com
pany intended to present. a quantity to the
club for experiment. Be said that when marl
was first shipped to Bridgeton the price was
' 51 - 25 - per ton. I tWas found beneficial to the
grass autd crops, and the demand increased;
thereupon' 'tile companies huthediately ad
vanced ,the price to SI 80i but as corn and
wheat were bringing high prices the demand
continued to increase.
The price again advanced to $1,95, where
upon the farmers commenced to growl and
hold meettngs y Which caused a- reduction of
price to $1 85 in 1867, and '6B. At ,that time
wheat sold at $2 30 and corn at $1 40. The
companies-soon concluded, however, that the
farmers were making too much money, and
wanted another squeeze. They thouild the,
farmers were obliged to have • it, and so ad
vanced the price to $2 05. This set the farm
ers to thinking whether they were not paying
too dear for the whistle:- While he admitted
that marlwas good on,orass and potatoes,it was
the dearest fertilizer that can beuseti even at
the original price of $1 25. The average cost of
hauling from the depot is fifty cents per ton,
making the cost per acre, at the present price
of $2 05, say with ten tons to the acre, $25 50.
He had found that for general crops as good
:in article as marl was super-phosphate, bone
dust or guano, and for wheat much better, and
at one-third the cost. Three hundred pounds
of bone-dust or super-phosphate never cost
over $6O per ton, or $9 Per.acre, three hundred
poundabenign good dose, and not a tithe of
the time or labor is required, to apply -them.
Dr. Trimble . admitted the conclusions OfMr.
Wilson so far as the prices were concerned,

MAPLE TREES.—Dr. 'E. P. Allen, of Athens,

maple trees and spine of them had. forked
occasionally, splitting apart and breaking
down. He wanted to know the remedy,
Mr. Ely, the President, said that some of his
maples had troubled him in the same way
fifteen years ago. He had an - inch hole bored
„through them with an augur, and an inch iron
bar inserted, screwed up by bolts on each side.
The bar stood out three inches, but it was all
covered now, the trees were now as large
-round as a barrel, and all were saved in this
way.

,
Castle, West Chester county, N. then pro
ceeded to give an- interestang description- of
the improvements Made in, the eultur,e . of '
strawberries. He had ivreiltV..four different . ,
varieties from his own place, the various beau
ties of which he dilated upon, and then allowed
the club to taste. for-thentselves.' •
There were only three varieties which came
to the New York. market; >The -small kind,
known as the ,Hackensack berry,_had always
had the control of the market.. ib next' itn
provement to it was the ~Wilson berry, which
had created. a revolution in the business. The
berry had re tine 'appearance; and was hard;
its only fault to some was-its acidity r which it
entirely looses when ripe; but as it is not then
fit to be sent to market, the, New Yorkers get
it in its acid state. No variety had given so
Much satisfaction, while none had given
much trouble to the • ',growers.
The- next berry in importance was
the Trierapla de Orwid, winch requires
a heavy loamy soil and special. culture. The
has to be tilled deep,- say,twelyeinchesfa ,
dozen Ainies 'during --the season. -Being' of
European culture it :requires more (-moisture:
than the'AMeriean varieties: had.ex.peri
mentedin inatty years; and COUld , ndt make
it profitable until he comnicuced plough
deep, using a sub-soil' - plough. Re had suc
ceeded in - making - ireyenlinate
the Wilson. The Tilomphe is notliked by all
pei-Ams as it has not enough acidity to suit
many ,
The It omaioe,Seedling resembles the Wilson
so much that it is hardly possible to tell the
difference. The amateur berrieS, for home use,
ere of endless variety. They are very change
able in their cultivation—those which expel this
sea •on failing the next,:and those whiclifailed
succeeding; so thatit would be an unprofitable,
investinent to attempt to supply' theta:far thei
market. The Brooklyn Scarlet was much
better last - year, than this., It is unequalled in
flavor. Tile New Pine is very fine, but very
soft. It mast be. dead ripe, when the flavor
exquisite.
The earliest variety this year was the Jenny
Lind, by several,days, The Crimson Favorite
was also early' this year, and has flourished
very well fur.the firsttinie , . Stinger's. seedling
is too soft for the market, but a very fine
berry. The character of Bo don's 30th and
Agriculturistare very mucitalike. The,s.etwo
and the Barnes are the most promising mar
ket variety. The BarneS'is later thanthe Wil
son and equally productive. It is of medium
size. ; .The most valuable variety for home use, -:
but not much used for the Market," is the '
Charles Downing, which is of very fla
vor, and a good, strong and vigorous berry.
The "Lady of the Lake" was lately origivatea,
and has succeeded admirably so far. It is a
valuable home variety.
The Lorella was exceedingly valuable for
home use'a being the highest flavored and of a
peculiar tste. Among the latest berries' the '
Frogniores and Late Pine are recommended.
The Nicamer has no strawberry flavor about
it,but tastes morelike a geoseberry. The Great
Eastern is very late, and a very hard berry.
It is also very prolific. It - is : just now coin-,
mencing to bear. Its shOrtneSs of stem is au
objection. .The Georgia Mammoth is alsO just
in Moore.
On next Thursday Dr. Hexamer will exhi
bit a hundred varieties at the Whitlock Expo
sition.

The Club tendere . cl him a' unanimous vote of
thanks fdr his interesting statement ott the
merits of strawberries.
