But I was hungry, and my boatman intend ed toearn lii.s fare in Hie shortest possible time, so he darted up a narrow water passage, the strange voice of the gondolier calling out his cautionary signal, as we turned a comer or Special Correspondence Constitution. Vemit, August 17, 1^1.???Before bidding adieu to the cathedral of Milan, I ought to *-pcak of the view on the roof of the building. The prim-ilia I tower is 155S feet high, and the ascent to the roof of the church is made by, 158 ??tej??s. A modern ???lift" would be-a pay ing institution, beyond a doubt, for these steps are very high, and it is quite fatiguing to mount them. When once on the roof, how ever, the visitor is well paid for his labor. He finds himself among a perfect forest of spires, cat-Ii one of which is an exquisite work of art. Only a portion of the roof can lie seen at one view. Standing with the back to the tower, you see a succession of smaller spires, each one having every side and every angle graced by a marble figure. From the eaves to the hummit there arc rows of miniature turrets, each one of which is crowned by a figure rep resenting some species of fruit. At a certain angle of vision seats are lived, from whicii tlie visitor, taking in the whole field, sees before him an orchard of marble trees covering seve ral acres. No two of these figures are alike. I???very niche, comer, crevice, angle and square contains a human figure, or the likeness of Lome object in nature. It is like a town in its dimensions, with some new object of interest nt every step. But there is still a higher and grander point of view. After resting awhile, you ascend 48(1 steps, and at last come to the lofty platform, three hundred feet from the ground. There a panorama of varied beauty lies In-fore you. The city looks like a compact mass of stone witii glimmering outlines of streets???far off the mountains lie in a dreamy liaze???historic battle fields lift a column or a pillar here and there to tell the story of the past,anil the marble forest beneath ypu bears testimony to human genius. If there be any building on the earth grander than this I desire to see it. Yet, this struc ture has boon severely criticised fioethc thought the tower was a blunder, and the front of the building in disa greeable contrast with the main body. This latter objection has been regarded as valid, and it is proposed to change the front so as to place it in accord. For my own part. 1 see nothing to condemn, but everything, to ad mire. One of the most remarkable effects I noted in the morning service. Bitting in the chair, elevated a few feet from the main lloor, whilst looking at the fctatnc over the principal door, ami at the arches of the ceiling, the line was shortened, until the distance seemed not to lie more than fifty or sixty feet, but when castingthe eye to the floor, and looking parallel with my chair, I found that men anil women who were coming in nt the door appeared scarcely more than half the natural size. This optical illu- /???iun was very curious to me, althoagli 1 knew the cause of it. On the ceiling there were no objects for comparison, and consequently no criterion for the measurement of space. On the floor, it was otherwise, and lienee the mind was aided in forming a judgment of dis tance. One would scarcely suppose that four hundred linear feet of space would furnish this illustration, hut it certainly does. The tame law of optics requires painters and en gravers to plats; the figure of a man, or some object of well known height, as a unit of measurement in pictures of buildings. The theater of l.q Benia, said to be the largest in Europe except in Naples, l visited nt>out 10 o'clock in the day before 1 left. The stage is 150 feet deep, and on it scenes of bat tles by land anil sea are exhibited. Four thousand persons may lie seated in its audi- ertee room. One architectural device was near to me. It is said that great singers are ex ceedingly anxious to make their debut in <q??era at I at Scala. Whether this is wise or not, may be considered doubtful. My guide caused me to take a certain position in front, whilst the guard placed himself on the stage near the front, thespot, l presume, which the ??????star" would occupy. Then, in a very mod erate tone, the Italian.sounded a musical note. From the roof of the stage this note came 4>ack, multiplied a hundredfold in power. Tho rebound was not likean'ccho, but seemed to be a species of leverage given to thjj voice. If there were an appreciable moment of time between the sound from the lips and the re- bound from above, the effect would lie un pleasant, hut it is not so. On making the ex- perinient myself, it seemed as if the ceiling caught my voice and threw it forward witii tenfold more power than 1 could command, .???speaking from ,such a stage would ho easier than common conversation, whilsta speaker's emphatic words would conic with the force of a thunderbolt from the sky. I say that a de- l>wt from such a stage may create a false esti mate of a singer's power, for a very weak voice here has help that may not be found elsewhere. This may be a secret of the art ists, for aught that l know, but l am sure that the effect is one of a very singular character. AVhispering galleries are numerous enough but tins is more than that. If a little of the labor and genius employed upon music to give effect and produce impression upon the masses, had lieen done to aid the preachers of the gospel, would the world remain in a state Of spiritual torpor? every one understands when the subject of ! heard the plash of an oar ahead of tis. At eating is introduced. My American friend in | the landing place of the hotel a porter met me, Paris found it so, un(l I have had tlie same ex- an?? I was soon in comfortable quarters, pericnee. According to my tastes, the Italian cuisine is better than the French, but the arts of hotel keepers are pretty much the same all over tlie globe. Some people get their mon ey???s wortli at the table and others do not. Messrs. Cook & Son, of I/ondon. deserve the thanks of travelers in this behalf. Every where persons who travel on Cook???s Tourist tickets, an<l use his hotel coupons, are request ed to announce the fact on reaching the hotel. I did this at Milan, as elsewhere, but the clerk failed to note the fact. I suppose, as I found my bill made nut, at departure, to be paid in gold. As it liapjiened, there was very little difference in the two amounts, but I can read ily sec how it might have been otherwise. The bill is now before me, and for the benefit of any who may come tiiis way, l will give the items as they are recorded. 1 came on Satur day afternoon and left five minutes before 1 Monday.

Although surfeited with pictures in Paris, I passed through the twenty-three rooms of this museum, where Titian, Rubens, Vandyck, Garofolo, Tinto retto, Paul Veronese, Bellini, Raphael and l.eonardo da Vinci, ami many more, are rep resented by their best works. Critics in art may bo able to see boantios and splendors in all the works of ???the old masters.??? To my eye there is a profusion, not to say excess of gaudy colors in most of them. They are not copies of nature as 1 have seen it. Well enough it may be to paint men and women in brilliant and vivid colors, but it is only now and then that nature puts on her holiday robes, a ltd when she does, I hav rarely seen them copied by Imman pencil. All attempts to take her portrait arc like tlie painter???s work I see in all these galleries. Here sits a man, or a woman copying a famous picture. In every instanc however beautiful the copy may be, it is not reproduction of tlie original. A man expert i detecting bank notes that are counterfeit, for example, would sec striking errors in these copies of pictures. Side by side, the original and tlie copy, I could sec sometimes tlie six teenth of aii inch of difference in angles of the mouth, changing the expression entirely, a false tint throwing one portion in relief that should have been in shadow, and scores of others, which I need not name. These copy ing painters would denounce me as an ignor ant critic, I have no doubt, and l claim no skill or knowledge of art, in itself, but I am confident that 1 can tell tilings that vary, from those that are identical. Take, for example, Jit-onardo da Vinci???s Last Supper. It has been more frequently copied than any work of art in existence. I have seen them ever since I can remember, and in all forms of art, in paintings and engravings. When I saw it near the church of Santa Maria delle Gnizie. in Milan, there were three copies nearly fin ished. One of them is nearly as large as the original. Da Vinci painted it on the wall of the refectory of the monks, near the church, beginning it in 14S3. The refectory was used, by Napoleon???s soldiers as a stable, anil time and dampness, with bad treatment, have irre parably injured the picture. Borne of the faces are sadly marred. But of those that are distinct, I do not think tliat oncof these copy ists had caught the right expression. I care not what others may say, but there on the walls was I>a Vinci's picture, and before me were the copies. If I had seen either of the pic tures on canvas elsewhere, I would have thought it very fine; but seeing the original and the copy together, must say that the new paintings are not good like* , qi The stillness of the night produced sensation of awe. There was something al most supernatural in tlie very atmosphere. Out of the lumbering, thundering, rattling, roaring chaos of the stony streets, and chat tering multitudes, and railway ears, I was suddenly transplanted to a spot* in which al most unbroken silence prevailed. Now and tiien the murmur of the gondola gliding un der my window, or tlie shrill voice of tlie boatman calling a lookout to his fellows on the watery ways???these sounds, few and far between, only broke the profound quiet. As the night wore on, the stillness was less and less broken, until I felt as if I had been such dcnly plunged into the depths of a forest at the midnight hour. My first night in Venice will remain in memory aslongas life lasts. Everything so new, so strange, so wonderful! Tlie past, with its mighty volumes of human history written in dark and bloody, or in glorious and brilliant deeds by stout hands and hearts???that past which can never come back to this citv ???throned upon her hundred isles"???came back to me in the recollections of a national life without precedent or imitation in the annals of the world. AV. KH. 27 liras 73 centissimo. In American currency, tlie entire bill was .28. If to this the dinner for the second clay had ln-en added, tlie amount would have been $(1.23 cents, or nearly ??3.12 cents per day. The omnibus fare, however, is properly no part of the hill at the hotel, so that the charge per diem would lie ??2.83 cents. To Messrs. Cook I had paid 8 shillings six pence per day for the coupons, so that my actual saving by this arrangement was the sum of 71 cents per day. It is proper, to remark, however, that my ingenious host of the hotel I)??? Augleterre, in Milan, managed to overcharge me by tiie amount of one ???dijenner,??? at 1 lira, 50* cen times. I'hari one cup.of coffee on Saturday night, breakfast on Sunday morniug, dinner in the afternoon, and breakfast on Monday. Only four times was I in tlie dining room, but I paid for five meals. The amount was small, however, and I do not know that the mistake was intentional, although the doubt is not in favor of ???mine host.??? Another item, however, is not to lie overlooked. In tlie hills, ???service??? is paid for by a distinct charge, but, as a matter of??? fact, you expected to pay tlie servants sc^pic amount, on taking leave. A bright little fellow who was managing ???the lift??? interested me in his attempts to speak Eng lish, and it was wortli the' franc I gave him to see tlie grace and agility with which he dotted his cap and saluted me as I left the hotel. Bidding adieu to Milan, without finding time to visit the ???National Exposition,??? I be gan my journey to Venice a few minutes be fore one o???elock in the afternoon. On Sun day night a gentle rain had fallen for some hours, and all nature was rejoicing in the much needed blessing. The dust was dis posed of effectually, and there was just enough of moisture exhaling from the base of the mountains to give them what I have call ed their ???holiday robes.??? The ancient city of Brescia, war-worn and battered by the strife of kingdoms and of centuries, is In a ro mantic situation on the left of tlie railroad. Here tin: celebrated Chevalier Bayard, the knight who was ???without fear anil without re proach,??? accompanied the French army that captured tiie city in 1512. Here too, the cruel Austrian general, Haynau, battered walls and dwellings without mercy in 1349. Once the ri val of Milan, it is now a place of comparatively little importance. Every rood of Italian territo ry- isiiistoric ground, and the intelligent travel er can never be at a loss for objects of interest but I Could not tarry anywhere between Mil- lan and Venice. Antiquities anil statues, and pictures must all be passed by, at Brescia, Ve rona and Padua. Cremona, tlie place .cele brated only for its fiddles, and Berjarno, just beginning its famous autumnal fair, lay on either hand; whilst near Brescia 1 saw with deep interest the battle fields of Louato, where the great Napoleon gained one of his first victories over tiie Austrians, and Solfer- ino, one of the great victories of the last Na polcon over the same foes. The solitary promontory, looking like a lofty perch hid den among the clouds, is Sermioiie, where Catullus, tlie Roman poet, lived. In full view is a tall tower, marking the battle field of Solferino. The town of Deseuzano is situ ated on the southern shore of Lago di Garda, and a more enchanting landscape I have never seen than the one presented on that after noon. The sun was shining with that tem pered, mellowed light which often precedes, and sometimes follows a generous fall of rain. Turning a corner of the mountains, a beauti ful lake lay embosomed in lofty peaks, with castles rising from the water???s edge to airy nests high up among tlie clouds. Widenin'g now, and narrowing tiien, as we sped ou our way, the waters of tiie lake took all tlie colors of the rainbow, from vivid tints of Vermillion to the sober, aslien-grey shadows of the hills upon tlie unruffled surface. Town, villa, lake mountain and horizon all alike were clothed in a drapery of beauty which art has never yet copied. Halting but a few moments at any point, we reached a little before sundown the rail way track from Venice to Trieste, in Austria. I longed for the first view 1>f world-renowned Venice, and watched a bunk of clouds gather ing in tlie west, fearful that the evening sun light might fail us ??? before the queen of the Adriatic came in sight. But I had scarcely time to feel this anxiety for more than a few minutes, when I saw the domes and towers of the great city of tlie sea rising up out of the waters, with every palace and tower bathed in the rich colors of a summer sunset. And this was Venice! A treasure arrested by human art from shifting sands and sluggish* waters??? a city whose power and prowess reads like a fairy??? tale, or the creation of imagination in the pages of romance. A bridge of splendid masonrv, two miles and a half in length, crosses the lagoons, and ends at the railroad pier on the Grand canal. Tlie noise of the hackmcn and tlie cabs, and the multifarious means of transport in other cities does not meet the traveler here. Drawn up in a line at the. quay, arc scores of gon dolas, robed in sable, steel-prowed, and share ???the one inimitable ???institution??? of Venice. Gathering my portable baggage I soon found _ tlie porter of the ???Hotel Victoria,??? and in less than two minutes was seated in the gondola, whilst niy port manteau was lieing delivered to the niessen- A XVondcrfnl Remedy. Mr. R. P. Lewis, of East Saginaw, Michigan, writing to the editor of the Laportc, Indiana, Argus, says: ???I wisli you would allow me to ay, over my own signature, a word in behalf of a remarkable curative agent???Compound Oxygen. It is not a medicine but a vitalizer, and its effects are natural, direct and perma nent. Its use involves no risk or inconveni ence of any kind. I speak both from observe tion and experience. I was induced to try it- by the recommendations of such men as T. S Arthur and Judge Kelley, and also a personal friend, and have found it more than was promised. This wasover six months ago, and tlie good effects have been permanent. A gain of fourteen poumls in six weeks was tlie avoirdupois result, but my general spirits were lightened up at least a ton. There are three other men here who have tried the Compound Oxygen with even more striking results, anil I am acquainted with the history of each case. One of them lost his voice last winter, and was so run down in general health that little hope was entertained of his recovery. Tlie Oxygen cured him without change of climate or stop ping work, and he says lie is as well as ever. Another, who has worked for years us paving- teller in a bank, anil was all used up ant! not expected to live beyond a month or two, took tlie treatment, and is a hundred per cent bet ter and recovering rapidly. Another,- who ,???s of consumption, has tried it and is greatly improved. He tells me lie would have been dead long ago but for this remedy. I have no axe to grind in making this statement, and if you should not publish it I would lose nothing by the refusal, though if vou should others might be benefited which is all the end I have sought to com pass.???

I remembered that the time had come ???for all the world to be taxed.??? But I resolved to ???hold the fort,?????? aud the ???soldi??? remained in my pocket. Bag gage safely aboard, tiie gondolier began his work, and we moved rapidly up the --grand canal." Lights were peeping out from every comer and cranny, and as we swept under tlie arch of a bridge and turned our course to wards the heart of the city, the effect was very novel. Darting here and there, red and green lights on tlie prows of the boats, whilst the black shapes that seemed instinct with life, gave forth no sound except ilirsoft ripple of an oar now and then lifted by tlie boatman. Under towering walls and dark arches, by in numerable lights that sec-med springing up by magic on cither hand, 1 heard tiie sound of music, and in a few moments a circle of va rious colored lanterns appeared in the middle of the canal, and around them were grouped hundreds of black gondolas, filled with Usten- THB GREAT GERMAh REMEDY RHEUMATISM, NEURALGIA, SCIATICA, LUMBAGO, BACKACHE, GOUT, SORENESS or TBS CHEST, SORE THROAT, QUINSY, SWELLINGS AND SPRAINS, FROSTED FEET AND EARS, Bmuxrs AND SCALDS, TOOTH, EAR AND HEADACHE, AND ALL OTHER PUNS AND ACHES.
