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.

the-ct»n*fi:aud-atartling
the wfhole world by its -unparalleled barbarity,

tranquilly. 1 often recall tbe fine reply of the
Jesuit father to me, when 1 see the two hun

Most of the Council fathers seem to be Span

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. Shortly after,' theVDeputy SUryeyoi>f>.V', - • ■ ■

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. ' Dalej

parations to receive an assault are being made.
