From the Now York Herald.
The Roman i amiHuviia.
The well considered letter which we
publish from our correspondent in
Italy sketches the history of the Agro
11. >niaiio from the earliest efforts of
the popes to improve its condition
down to the present time. The chief
obstacle they iiatl to encounter arose
from the fact that two-thirds of the
Oamnogna belonged to noble families,
on whom until recently the estates
were strictly entailed, or to the cler
gy, who were restrained by no statute
of mortmain from the acquisition of
ever extending domains. It may be
supposed, toil, that the absence of
free municipalities within the ponti
fieial territory tended to chock local
enterprise, while the government
which existed urhi et min was more
often occupied with the affairs of the
world Hum the city. This was the
opinion of the late Baron Bunsen,
who, when Prussian Minister at
Home, recommended a scheme of
municipal self-government as the
best method of meeting the wishes of
liberal reformers. Certain it is that
one pontiff after another failed In the
attempt to reclaim the marshy soil.
Statesmen like LeeX, and Sixtus V.
had no better success than simple,
worthy priests of the type of Pius VI.
and his immediate successors. Na
poleon applied himself to the task
which Commit had essayed some
eighteen hundred years before, but
the career of the one conqueror, as
of the other, was cut short ere the
most beneficent of ids works could bo
accomplished. At length the labor
which grave politicians and skillful
financiers have Contented themselves
with talking about for centuries is
likely to be accomplished by a brave
did soldier, who loves his country after
lie sheathed the sword with which he
freed her, and who by the pure hon
esty of his intentions, is enabled to
overcome difficulties which would
have overwhelmed men less whole
hearted than he. The hero of a
school girl’s romance turns out to be
more practical than some men who
havo won special reputations for
knowledge of business.
Should the plans of Garibaldi be re
alized they will be no unworthy crown
of ids military triumphs. To reclaim
to cultivation land which for ages has
been abandoned to waste and pesti
ienee i to make two blades of grass
grow where one grew before; to cre
ate new harbors on the fairest coast
land ol Europe and attract to them
the navies of many countries ; to re
store to the gaze of a wondering world
tin- treasures of the past, which may
lie under the Tiber near the Etefnal
City, the witness of so many sudden
and violent changes --todo (ill this at
a comparatively trifling cost issurely
tlie mark of genius, if genius, may be
recognized by the capacity for ac
complishing great ends with small
means.
It is strange that, while ill Scotland
or North Germany men will give fab
ulous sums for a few square yards of
ungrateful soil which will require the
incessant labor of their lives to force '
it to yield its produce land, is to be
obtained in the garden of the world
at a cheap rate which if reclaimed
would be fertile from the long rest of
centuries. Deserts are purchased
for much money and a rich virgin
soil lying close to the capital of ■
Christendom is neglected. This state
of things cannot long continue. Land j
is still, as in the days of Lord Mans
field. the most productive of invest
ments, and sites in tho neighborhood
of Home must ultimately attain to
quite ar till dial values, whether they
tie covered with fields of waving corn
or trim villas, which shall recall the:
►stately luxury of the Augustan age :
V*** sapere --t alG* al*> bene vivo re, quorum
Oounpintur sftidis luudata peeuaiit v illis.
Such was the advice of Horace to
capitalists.
THE SOIL OF THE CAHFAONA.
This the people thus the land! A
vast stretch of land without human
habitation, with the exception of an
cient structures and some palaces,
where the proprietor may spend a
week or two in the spring. The Agro
Romano may be divided Into three
parts. First, the valley of tile Tiber,
down to tlie Isola Haora, in some parts
three or four kilometers broad, in
some parts narrower. Here we see
neither houses nor trees, tlie. wide
plain is given up to pasturage,dotted
here ami there with fields of grain,
cultivated, however, in a most mis
erable maimer. Second, a broad
stretcji of land along the s.-a, reach,
ing from Civita Veeebia to the Rou
tine marshes, desert-like, with sand
bills ; here and there, as in the valley
of the Tiber, fields and pasturage,
dots of stunted forest growth and
lakes of stagnant water. Third, the
so-called highlands, but which are
real I v nothing lyut small lulls, con
nected by pretty, fruitful valleys, but
all devastated during tlie rainy sea
son by torrents which carry away tho
greater portion of the soil to tin- lied
of the Tiber. Tlie cattle and the
: peasants and the "mereaiitl”
have destroyed neatly all tho
(forest growths on the hillsides;
the cultivable portions arc sown with
grain, the rest is given over to the
herds. The farmers give themselves
no trouble to procure egress for the
rain water, which forms ponds amt
lakes and swamps in the valleys, and
grasp acre after acre of laud with
every year. In spring even the most
barren jiortlons of the Agro Romano
smile in the beauty of (lowers, and of
tho green grass and foliage, but to
ward tlie mUMIe Of June the grain is
ail harvested, the grass is parched up,
tho lakes have become sam#, and
the swamps are covered witli slime
and emit theiirpifioononsexhalations.
The cattle are watered in tanks sup
plied from tlie running brooks, but
after passing the tanks no further
provision is made to carry off the
water, which deluges the land, and is
left again to form tlm Inevitable
swamps. Only on a few estates can
exceptions be made to tiiis picture.
One Or two proprietors have thresh
ing machines in operation and have
built stalls for their cattle, and
plough the land in a civilized man
ner, but tho estates so mauaged are
only small oases iu tho midst of the
groat melancholy desert.
