Academics of Art* :\ ,-v Komf, Itaiy, Sept. 2d, mahy years I have ielt deeply interested in the sub ject of Academies of A.rt. Free Academic* should be encouraged,—hot for slmple.llalls of Exhibition, neither for the purpose of making rank and position for established artists, nor as almshouses for broken-down ones. When Lord Brougham was appointed Chancellor, in a most characteristic manner he wrote to the poet Southey for bis Opinion dir the porjj of pa tronage which might hegiven usefully.and safely hy the Government to Literature. Seuthey replied in a cutting hut courteous manner to the evci-eager and would-be Grand Patron. One remark in the reply : was often quoted hv Sydney Smith as a fine specimen of caustic wit. It was in allusion to a new order which had been given at the time to some dis- tincvushed man of scicnc ‘‘Should tlie Gtielphic order,” wrote Southey, “be made use of as an encourage- 1 meut to men ol letters, I, for my part, should choose to remain a Ghibelline.” No, it is not for any,of- these purposes Aca. demies should he established and supported,- hut lor the benefit of the student artists, to show them what and how to study’; to save timefor them, and also give them.a change for a few years to' perfect tberiiseives at Rome, with minds free from anxiety for daily bread. When I remember the "sad , fate Of young Bartholomew, or When' I visit the -studio of a ciever young artist like your townsman llarnisch, see his beautiful -clay group ot the. Matron clipping Love’s wings, look at his pale face and beayy-tired eyes, know 1 that, during the summer months, when he should be rest ing, breathing fresh air, gaining newer and richer thoughts from nature, lie is forcedby the : necessity of earning his'daily bread to stand in a hot city studio and chip'and di-ill and file in dustriously at the marble of a portrait statue, I wish to be the possessor of a few millions to use for this class of men, who, if properly aided and directed, could do so much for our coun try’s true glory. - Then when I drive out on the Via Nomen tarra and look at the buildings and grounds of the Villa AStoain, think of its excellent, useful collection, mid the probability of its going to adorn tbe New York Central Park, where, for a generation or two it will be understood by only a fewfl again wish for these millions, to buy the Villa as it now stands, and establish there an American Academy which should generously rival the Academy of France in the Villa Thedici oh the Pincian Hill. . - 11 This American Academy at Rome should be the succursale or branch establishment of nu merous Academies at home, from whose classes should come Pensionaries to Rome, .to study tranquilly for as many years as their merits entitled them, with liberty to choose their own masters... At the head of this American, Roman Academy might he a presiding officer, elected for a short period of time, by the votes of all American artists from among the members of - their profession. This gentlenian could make a sort of home for the young men, and in the saloons of the Academy there might be col lected at stated periods during the winter sea son, as at the Academy of France, the best so cietv visiting Rome, so that the. Pensionaiies could have a chance of with' the social world, as well as of studying art in the galleries and studios of the Villa and Rome. Since I came to Rome 1 have used every means to inform myself on the management of various Italian Academies, and I have col lected a great deal of information. As a Euc cursale, or branch establishment, the Aca demy of Franco seems to he an excellent model. ' I have a full account of it 3 history and present very fine management, which at a future time I Will give you. The most difficult problem to solve just now in Italy—setting aside the Roman question—is the Academy proper in which the pupils are to be taught before they become Pensionaries. Italian artists are divided into three strong ' parties ; one for Academies directed on the old for no academies what ever, and a'third, wiser party, who wish to unite -all parties in a reform. In the approach ing Art Congress; which will be held this Sep- iPiuher, at Parma, this subject will be fully dis cu6sed. An Italian artist, who is very well informed on this subject, lent me, a few weeks ago, the Schema, which has been sent to the leading artists of Italy, by the President Slag lieno,” of the Committee of Admin istration of the Academy Ligustica, or Genoese Academy. In this Schema is proposed a new arrangement, which it is hoped may conciliate all parties. These Schemas’pre pub lished with broad margins. Each artist to whom they were sent was expected to place . , Iris approval, disapproval and suggestions on \ these margins, and return the Schema to the President. These opinions will be collected and debated upon at the meetings of the Parma Art Congress, and the result of their delibera tions published after the adjournment of the Congress.' When it is given out, I will return to this’suhjecl, which is especially interesting to cultivated Americans. The Koninn Elepbnut. And now a little talk on the “ actual situa tion of the Roman question,” as the Florentine journals say daily in their leaders. For years Italy has been sighing and panting for Rome. Here Romo stands, ready to take possession of, but she is like the elephant which the un lucky countryman won in a dollar raffle. The Government of Florence has not one solitary excuse. No Mazzini or Garibaldi insurgents, no Roman popular revolution. The city of Rome is as tranquil as a country village in the pines and cedars of South Jersey, far from railrffads and Vineland speculators. ’Worhlnu lor Eternity. . - ..Notwithstanding the. terrible war which is the-ct»n*fi:aud-atartling the wfhole world by its -unparalleled barbarity, the Council of the Vaticau pursues its labors tranquilly. 1 often recall tbe fine reply of the Jesuit father to me, when 1 see the two hun dred fathers coming into the Council Hall at - St. Peter’s: “We are working for eternity“ Most of the Council fathers seem to be Span iards. There is only one Piedmontese Bishop lie re—Mgr. Ferre de Casal.

Visitor the Board of City Trnsis—A New Survey—History of tlie OlrarU Coal Estate—A HajsntOcent Prouertyv rCorreßDondorico oftho Philadelphia EvoainKßulleHn.] PoTTSviiXE, September 20, IS7O. J.bo Board of City Trusts of. Philadelphia reached this place on the nooD train yesterday, and departed in the afternoon for the Girard lands, to inspect which they had come from Philadel phia. A corps of engineers has been engaged, for. several weeks, in making a new survey- of. these lands,and is likely to have steady employ ment in that line for some time to come, if the work is to be done with any approach to I thoroughness ; for the Girard lands are no in. significant morsel of real estate. In its original* form the estate included nearly onedralf of the Mahanoy coal-field. That portion now claimed hy the city of Philadelphia covers about twenty square miles of territory, and fifty-two miles of posts and rails would be required to fence it in,- while the Girard hens claim probably half as much more. ... Stephen Girard purchased these lands from the Bank of the United States, a year- or two be fore his death, and thereby became the posses sor of wealtUalmostincalculable. —Having an idea of their value, he at once set about buying up tbecuumerous conflicting titles; for pre vious owners had been so ignorant of the riches hidden in their rocky hills and gloomy swamps that they suffered the lands to be sold, time after time,for the light taxes assessed upon them—often less than one cent per acre. Be sides these titles, which, like all tax titles, were very good and binding in law and very slippery and hard to hold ; iu fact,there were numerous claims arising from overlying surveys. The State of Pennsylvania giants the land which it ow ns in tracts of 400 acres each, at a small sum per acre, and gives the purchaser of the tract a warrant commanding the deputy sur veyor of the county in which the land lies to lay it off, hy metes and bounds, in the particu lar locality desired by the purchaser, and to so survey it that he shall have not only his 400 acres, but six per cent, additional “ for roads,” &c. By this procedure, each purchaser from the State has, theoretically, a tract of land rec tangular- in form, containing 424 acres, with the iand lines distinctly marked upon the ground, with a map of the land and a certifi cate of its having been properly surveyed de posited-in-tb&ofiice-of-the-Surveyor.-GeneraU, and a “patent,” which is the Commonwealth’s I deed in fee simple for the same, in his pocket. But it' frequently happened that in blunder ing along through the 'woods, the early survey ors—who are traditionally charged with a ten dency to set up their, compass on the top of one mountain and sight across the intervening valley to a tree on the next mountain, theu to shoulder the instrument and make as nearly a bee line as possible for tree No. 2, running the risk of hitting the right tree or one some hundreds of yards to the right or left—would 1-un their lines diagonally and fail to make a perfect fit, thus leaving intervening tracts of an irregular shape, without an owner until they were afterwards discovered and taken up. Then, too, and especially in the .neighborhood of the Girard Lands,which wereou the borders of what were theu Berks and Northumberland counties, it was no uncommon thing for the Deputy Surveyor of oue county to extend his surveys across the county line, and into his neighbor’s territory. Again, successive Deputy Surveyors would lay out successive tracts on lands previously for somebody else; especially when the previous surveys were made on paper, in the surveyor’s office, without beiiig made on the ground at all; a method of working which wiis so conimonag almost to become the rule, instead of the-'CSSceptidn. Successive survey ors would Ylocate successive surveys, one above another, until, iu some cases, they were four or five deep. This made work for the lawyers, for every claimant "-had a title from the State, and often there were many intricate points of law involved in the question whose title was best. Where there was only a “cham ber survey,” not marked on the ground, there was.no shadow of title until twenty-one years had elapsed. In the vast majority of eases the purchaser was unable to pay the to or jEIO per one hundred acres necessary to secure his ,patent, -and , .ueiierousiw. cases it is trusting yet; hut its lien never ex pires, and the Surveyor-General Is even now busily engaged in collecting the purchase money of lands sold before the Revolution.. ■Even when the lines were run upon the ground the rule offour hundred acres and allowance to each purchaser was often a convenient fiction, and speculators could take as much land as they pleased by depositing a list of names, real or fictitious, iu the Laud Office and taking out a separate warrant for., each i tract. Robert Morris, the financial Father of his Country, took out 130 warrants, (some say 131), on the same day, and had them surveyed in the Mahanoy region, where they subse ■ quently became the Girard Lands. That was in 1702.

[Correspondetico of the Phila. Evenirie Bulletin. 1 The Horticnltnral Fi»lr. Wn-MINOTOX, Sept. 20.—Extensive prepara tions are now being made for the Fair of the Delaware Horticultural Society,'which'com mences to-morrow evening, at Institute Hall. The hall is being beautifully decorated with flags and wreaths, and, with the brilliant display of flowers and fruits, it will present, When lighted up, a very attractive scene. . As the proceeds go to the Home for Friendless Children, other than horticultural attractions are added to draw visitors, and there . Will be a fine restaurant department attached to it, where one may be served with all the good things in season bv such waiters' as few rest aurants indulge in. There-will also be fine music furnished by Beck’s Band of your city, and the affair will partake of the character of a promenade concert. " These annual fairs en list the energies of the very highest social cir cles here,and the contribution to the exhibition table came-very largely from the gardens of the wealthiest citizens, and therefore are hardly fair specimens of the average predictions of fruit, flowers <€nd vegetables of the State. They are none the less beautif ui to look at on this account though. The Utile Election. A little more interest begins to be infused into the politicaLcampaign as the time for “ Little Election” approaches. This election takes place on the 4th of October, I believe, and is really the most absurd thing I know of. The only persons voted for are some commission ers, tax-assessors, and the inspectors to hold the general election a: ihenth' after, aud_, off course, the vote polled is so light that it is really no election by the people at all. There is no reason whatever why those elected should not be voted for at the “ Big Election,” but all suggestions of a change have fallen unheeded as the party in power lias found by experience that this js* good arrangement for it. Its more ad mirable discipline enables it usually to cany strong Republican.principals on so light a vote, and we all'know how eager Democrats are to have their own men inside of the polls. They say an inspector is as good as 50 or 100 votes, according to the size of the precinct. They also have usually the advantage of heralding “ a great Democratic victory ” just in advance of the real battle. Our people will really make an effort thib year to win in this preliminary skirmish, dr rather our politicians will urge them to do so; but then there is no knowing whether they will really get our vote out. We ought to elect three inspectors in every Hundred but two outside the city in this county, and in five out of the nine wards in Wilmington. If we don’t, look for a blatant despatch about a “ Democratic triumph” in about three weeks. —«-=■=—The-DlstUleryErniul.— The United States District Court" adjourned to-day until January. John Donahue, U. S. Gauger, was acquitted, with the consent of the District Attorney, who stated that the evidence would not warrant the pushing of the indict ment to trial. The case of Plunkett and Kelly was postponed on account of the absence of Supervisor Fultony who is sick in Baltimore, and is an important witness. The discontinuance was by order of the Commis sioner of Internal Revenue. Win. Baxter, the man convicted last week, was sentenced'to' three months’ imprisonment and $lOO fine. With the exception of Donahue every person' connected with the distillery frauds in Front street, brotight to trial, has. been convicted. As to Donahue none of the lawyers ever be lieved'the evidence agaiust him sutlieient for his conviction; This is in striking contrast with the result of such trials, under the Andy dohuson Ad ministration, when,with cases twice asflagraut, a conviction was a thing unheard of; not a single case having resulted in conviction dur ing all that time. This was not to be won dered at, as a rebel sympathizing Marshal sum moned a copperhead jury, who hated the reve nue laws and the Government which made them, and Were addressed by a Democratic District Attorney who had not a word of re ply to' make to the bitter denunciation of the. laws by such patriots as Senatoi Bayard. In those days the revenue laws were a dead letter to dishonest men in this State. Now they are strictly enforced. So much for an honest Re publican administration.
