The Visit to Genoa.

I MUST pass over Arenziuo, merely observ ing that from this place another charming view of the conßt line an f;ir as Genoa is ob tained ; and Voltri, a settlement on the liver Coruso, surrounded by open fertile country, divor.silied by many picturesquo private residences ; and Pra, a place where mariners congregate and shipwrights flour ish ; aud linger awhile at the favourite wateiing-plsce Pec;li. It insy almost be called a suburb of Genoa, and professes many attractions. If Pan ever had a local habitation, I should think his home was somewhere in the wooded vallics or on one of the,verdant dopes in the vicinity of l'egli. Some very superior villas, with extensive grounds artistically laid out, and abounding in shrubs and flowers, enhance the beauty Of tho environ. Particularly Villa Rostan, whose chief gardener, I imagine, must have leaned hia art in BngUud, the snrroundings are so home-like; Villa Elena Dnrin; nirl last, but not leist, the romantic Villa Pal lavaciui. By presenting your card, and in scribing jour name in a book kept far the purpose, and tho gratuity of a franc, a cus todian will conduct you over the domain. There you may roam amidst groves of ole anders, and ii wilderness of azaliaa and camelias, enjoying a prospect of rare extent and uniivalled beauty. Ascending to a poiut of special eminence, you come upon a castle', from tho tower of which the glorious panorama is still further enlarged. You way fancy yourself carried back to tha stir ring scones of the turbulent middle ages, the illusion bcimj hi-ightsiied by artistic re semblances of a recent siege; there is the tomb of tho commandant who was slain iv onslaught while manfully defending tha fortress, and the graves of his companions in amiH, peeping up amidst the scattered ruins. It; another part of the grounds ia a grotto, full of atabctite formation, and a subterranean sheet of water, in crossing which you got a view of the lighthouse a'. Genoa and the distant sea. A variety of Structures are pUccd at different points — Pargodiis, kio^uoß,' «nd erections of name less design ; some after the style of houses in ancient Pompeii, others that might have been copied from originals in ths neighbour hood of Constantinople and Pekin. These artiitic crecvions euhance the beauty of the fairy-like region, and delight sentimental visitors of romanticproclivities ; and sober minded practical naturalists may Hud equal pic isurc in studying the many Hpocimensof tropifl.il plants and rare shrubs that flour ish in the grounds. A day at Villa Palla vactni i« a treat not soon to be forgotten. A fet mure tunnels, and passing Sestri T'ononte, and its famous grotto (which I could not vi'lt), Cornigliano and San Pier d' Arena, we rolled into the station of the celebrated city of Genoa. I took up my quarters in tho Hotel de Gonnes, which, 1 presume must, in former times, have Keen the residence of some Gcuochd grandee, for many of the apartments were spacious, and bore Vrac»« of original splendour. My bed room wne lar^c enough for a coach-and-four to have lirivon round it without dilliculty, Tho situation of Genoa justifies the title "Li Suporha," which some of tha inhabi tants delight to give it. Ita natural beauties, palatial buildings, and above all, its historic renown, invest this city ;with peculiar interest. Ihe History of Genoa. 1 preßumu my readers to bo acquainted with Genoese hi-tory. If not, I almost envy them the pleasure they may derive when they be^in to read on tho subject. It would change the character of these sketchy letters if I were to assume the style of the regular historian ; but I cannot resist the temptation of glancing at the lending features of the vicissitudes through which Genoa has passed. Whim Rome was mis tross oi the world, Genoa was ono of her chief handmaids, commanding thecommorce of tbe Ligutian Coast, and iv subsequent times wna looked up to by circumjacent places of inferior status as their chaiup on against Saracen ravagers and oppressors, But the bravest ore subject to reverses; and in the year 936 the proud city had to submit to be plundered by marauders from Frassinoto. Bur* she soon re. covered from the blow, and before eighty years had eUpsed extended her authority and influence by conquering and annexing the island of Corsica. Then followed a long Intermittent warfare with her rival, Pisa, whose merchants disputed tho control of the commerce of the Tyrrhenian Sea. But the supremacy of Gcn9t» waa eventually established by the decisive naval battle of Meloria, when many of the war gullies of Pisa were captured, and many sunk. Pisa nevor recovered ihe catastrophe. Sardinia next succumbed to Genoft'n growing power, i-he had already seat her contingent to swell the forces of tho Crnauders, and this led to tbe opening up of a lucrative trade in the Levant, and enabled her to push her outposts even to Constantinonle and the Crimea, Cyprus, Syria, and Tunis. Then began the rivalry betwocn Genoa and Venice, and from the twolfth to the fourteenth century history teems with tho records of the bitter strife. It culminated in a terrible battlo, gained by the Venetians, in 1830, and from that period the pride of Genoa was humbled, and her power began to decline. Intestine strife and commotion hastened her downfall The fierce contests of the Guelphs and Ghibelliues accelerated the issne. Each party iv '.urn when defeated sought assist ance from foreigners, who paid themselves by nsurpntion. Tho Kings of France and of Naploa, the T)ukrs of Milan and Counts of Mniiferrat, at different periods domineered ovor the distracted and divided Genoese. On ono occasion, the populace rose in revo lution, overturned patneian rule, and in vested a Doge with supremo authority, But tho ancient prestige of the city was irrecoverably lost. In the course of time the monetary power of the Banco Giorcio became so great that it bid fair to^pndow the Kepiiblic and transform it into n. huge mercantile company. But a va/fety (jftcom. plicated events involved Genga in^iredi* putes of tho groat European Powers and prevented this. At length Andre Doria, tho admiral of the Emperor Charics V., re instated an oligarchical form of government. His palace is still oue of tho_ attractions of Germ». Then came the conspiracy organized by Fieschi. He did not succeed iv his ambitious schemes, but these commotions tended to weaken Genoa and rondnr her in cnpibloof resiiting spoliation. The Turks gradually took possession of her Oriental territories, and ere long the city its If was occi'p;.o<3 by tho French and the Imperial ist", In 173(5 a Whesphnlian adventurer of high decree, calling hims«]f Tliev'orc. de S'euhof, appeared on the troubled stage. The Corsicana threw off *heir allegiance and proclaimed him king, but the Gotoeso displayed some remans of their ancient spin', and proclaimed tlie upstart a rebel. H ■ lied for his life, and by the aid of French soldiery Corsica was re-conquered, only to b ■ shortly afterwards c<idcd by the Genoese

to their allies the French. After tho battle of Marengo, Napoleon took possession of Genoa, and in 1805 it was formally annexed to the French Empire. la 1815 it passed over to Sardinia, and now forms part of the United Kinsdora of Italy, The Grand Old City. This outline sketch will prepare the ' reader to accompany me to some of tho 1 existing places of interest in the grand old city—grand, I moan, in historical reminiscences, not in the width of its streets, for some of these are very nnrrow and Doisy. My first visit was to Campo Santo. This is, perhaps, one of thß finest cemeteries in the world, not in respect to extent of area and natural beauty, but for tho race and beauty of its numerous monu ments. It is situated on the slopes of the valley of tho Bisango, and is surrounded by arched colonnade', something like the cloisters of an abbey. On each side are funereal monuments, many of thnm very elaborate and costly, and of exquisite workmanship. I dare not occupy the time and space tnat would be required to describe thorn separately. They are of great variety in design ; most _of ihem exhibit groups of figures of tho nigng of litej some symbolical, others represent ing pathetic domestic scenes connected with deatli and bereavement. Asspi-ci mens of sculpture, I havo seen but little to exceed them. Artists find ample material tor study in the marble pictures of Carapo Santo. There are galleries above the ground floor nearly filled with mural tablets of an nnprotondlng character, a large flight of marble steps lead to tho Mortuary chapel, which is in the form of a rotunda. The interior is very beautiful. It baa a gallery supported by immense columns of black marble, and the lofty dome is richly ornamented. Bound the lower part of the rotunda there are statues, \ almost colossal, of Adam, Eve, Moses, the Virgin, and other Scripture characters. One peculiarity of the building is a remark able echo. It not merely repeats every sound, but reproduces it with har monies, Tho attendant sang a line of an Italian hymn, and I tried some notes of the scale, and the effect was very pleasant and curious ; it as as though Ihe strains were repeated by a distant choir. The a?he3 of the celebrated Italian patriot, Joseph Mazzini, repose in this cemetery. His tomb, which is in the highest part of th» grnind, is comparatively plain, but massive.

Tne aumpUi us Cnurch of the Capuchins, San Annunziata, next engaged my atten tion. It is cruciform in shapo, surmounted hy a dome. But what words can describe the magnificence of the interior! Twelvo fluted columns of white marble, inlaid with marble of dark colour, divide ths church into three parts. The side aWes are occupied by various closets, all of them elabor t'ly decorated with variegated marbles aer aos, and gild ing. The ceiling of th is bees beautifully painted. The higb ,11 be jvered with ornaments, and tb :.ng nost dazzled tiy the profusion t j a fe*.o be seen wherever you look. use o'ipt to ask, Where did the money t iw p oni that this structure must have wsvhicif elaborately costly shriuea for worsiare ta'any indication of revorontial piety, tnc 'hioman Catholic people of olden timos incurred expenses and made sacrifices that ought to make modern Protestants blush. In a recoas at the ena of a vaulted passage, entered from the back of tho church, I was shown a group of figures in wod, representing the defcent from tho crocs. It ifl awfully re alistic. Tho body of Jesus is being lowered one man auppotting it by his back, others holding the arms—while blood is seen trickling down the face and limbs of the corpse on to the persons of those engaged. As a work of art it may command admira tion, but the subject, and the too literal treatment of it, excites a painful fe ling of ravo!t.

From the church I went U the Palaco Balbi. It still belongs to tho family who built it, and tbo private apartments are not shewn. But I went through the rooms on the first floor; they ara magnificently fur nished, and give one a vivid idea of the grandeur snrronnding tha patricians of Genoa in tho palmy days. Antique vano*, mosaic vases, elaborately carved and inlaid cabinets, splendid mirrors,and innuincr»ble articles of costly value, are collected here. Fiva rooms ana a 1 ug gallery are hung with paintings, many of them master pieces by Carracci, Michael Angelo, Tin toritto. and other renowned artists. The ceilings are adorned with frescoet of ex quisite beauty. Thence I went to the Palace Harcelli Dnrapzo, The vestibule and staircase of this princely abode are very fine, and the apartments furnished in a style of magnificence, a detailed do'orip tion of which would tax alike my powers nnd the reader's patience. Here, too, there are eight rooms filled with pictures, by Rubens, Vandyke, tiuido Koni, Dominechins, Durer, and other great masters. The Palace | del; Municipic, formerly a private revidenae, bnt now occu pied as public offices, is interesting, not merely from the frescoes on the vestibule representing storica in the life of Doge Grimaldi, but as containing portraits, in mosaic* of Columbus and Marco Jfolo, two autograph letters of Columbus, Paganini's violin, and a sword that belonged to a com panion of Garibaldi. The Palace JKopo, formerly tho property of tbe Bngnole Sale, family, but now belonging to the city, con tains a valuable library and a fine collec tion of paintings. But I must curtail. The places of interest in Genoa are too numerous to be described in detail. The spacious harbour, with its marble terrace ; the churches of Ban Loun^o, San Ambrogio, and San Maria in Catignano ; the Academy of Fine Arts, with its collection of 40,000 volumes of books, many of them exceed ingly rare, and gallery of paintings; the Palace Royal, originally erected for the DueragßO fomi'y, bnt purchased for the Crowa in 1815 ; tae Palacu Doria, to which I have already alluded in this historical sketch—, would respectively furnish abund ant material for) comment and description. But I mast resist the temptation. I will only ssy that tho public and privai« edifice-", tbe works of art, and many things that attract attention in G 'iio.i, cfinno' bnt remind the thoughtful visitor of h.-r fomvr eminence and power, and ot tuc reverses she has experienced. As I stood upon tho marble terrace over looking the harbour, now dotted with peaceful merchant ships of modern build, bnt in ancient days with war gallic', hanked with oars too ponderous for a single man to U'e, I Oonld rot tut recal that fatal fend at Acre which lej to the war with Venice, but which may be said to have been the be ginning ot the en dof Genoa's power. It origic atod in a dispute about the po>pcssiou of the Church of St. Sabba, The Venetians worn willing to leave the question to the decision of tho Pope. Trie Gem oso p'Ctcnded to agr ee, but nvan while, acting on the prin cipal that possession,being nine points ot the law, is better than arbitration, they seized the Bacrcd building and fortified it. Not content with this piooe of shsrp p-nctie?, ttiey plundered tho magazines of the Venetian?, and drove them from the city. This roused tha vengeance of the Repnblic on the Adriatic Many herce naval battles ensued, Tlio G- noese, in turn, were cha«cc\ from Acre, with the loss of twenty gullies, and more than two thousand men, and from that time, as already stated, the strength of

Genoa gradually dwindled, but not without desperate spasmodio efforts to recover what had been lost. Indeed, one is filled with wonder at the vita ity and endurance of the Genoese] When their fleet was destroyed at Trapani—not a single vessel escaping— when their a) lie deserted them in despair —they resolutely began another campaign, and shewed that they were not yet crashed by sacking the Venetian colony in Candia, and again facing the forces of their rival on the coast of Tyre. I sum up by saying that whether the traveller who for the first.time visits Genoa considers her past glories, and the important part she played in mediu.'-val history: tho artistic beaucy^of her KiHaissnce Palaces, or the present bustle and business transacted in her nar row streets, and tho extensive works of im provement beirjg carred on in her harbour : he must needs nnd La Jjuperta one of tho most interesting cities ef Italy.

SCIENCE NOTES.

Leonardo da Vinci thus foreshadowed the tolephono : " When one is upon a lake, if he puts the opening of a trumpet in the water aud holds the point of the tube to his ear, he can perceive whether ships are mov ing at a remote distance. The same thing occurs if he has thrust the tube into the ground, for then, also, ha will hear what is going on tar away."

Somo time in 18G3 salt deposits were dis covered near Middlesbrough, England, at a depth of about 1,200 foot. All attempts to make the salt an industrial success failed at first. Now the efforts to bring it to the surface are very profitable. Wells are sunk down, and in them two tubes are plaqed, one within the other, so that an annular space is Jeft between them. Jnto the circular space water is poured, wbich dis solvea the salt, and the brine tbu* formed and subsequently pumped out yields about 160 tons of salt a week when evaporated.

A new element has been invented by M. Jablochkoff, the ingenious inveotor of the electric lighting system bearing his name, For the negative he employs carbon, but for the positive plate he substitutes sodium. .-is an excite', airsaturatodwhh moisture is sent by what he calls an aspirator into the battery or cell, and no accidulated liquid is brought into play. The utility, bo to speak, of the process is thus explained. The soda dissolved falls to the bottom of the box containing the elements, where it may bn collected and sold at a profit, as, without taking into consideration a small quantity of the carbonate and nitrate, it is practically pure. Testa "ive the electro motive force as four volts. M his invention, if it is worth anything, shoula not end here.

It is reported in "Nature"that Baron 'Nordeußkjjld, having inspected the royal mail steamer Sophia, winch Che Govern ment has naked the Swedish Parliament 10 lend for bis expeditinn to Ureen/ana, finds that the vessel is not of sufficient burden, although suitable in every other ranpect. He hns, therefore, decided that a vessel shall be de-patched trom D nmark, and the necessary requisites deposited in depOts to be established aim:; the oast.

At the last meeting of the Linvsean Society, Loudou, England, D: Conbold described a worm whicu he called Simondsia paradoxa. It ia a nomatodc, the male living free in the stomach of tbe hop, while the female is lodged in cysts within thu walls of the stomach. Although discovered thirty years ago by Professor gimonds, the " Lancet" says the worm has nevt-r been properly examined. The strange thing is that tbe female carries outside its bony a large rosette-shaped organ. This the author ot me paper considers to be the uterus.

The Wesley ."Bedhead" says: "The atatisiies of the United States prove that hay is among the foremott crops raised in this country, if not tbe very first. At the present timo there are eftimnted to be in the United States 40,000.000 sheep, 40,000,000 cattle, and 20 000,000 horse*. Iv two-thirds of the country these animals require to be fed from three to five moatho, and they will consume an aggregate ot !10 000,000 ton?, which, at §5 per too, re pr. seats the enormous sum of §150,000,000. It not hay, therefore, king !"

A recent communication from Dr. Joule deals with a purification of tbe products of coal gas by the employment of limo. It h»a thus been summarised : Slaked lime is placed in a vessel, tho bottom of which, about one foot in diameter, is slightly domed aud perforated with tine holes. The vessel is suspended about six inches above the burner. It is fonnd that a stratum of four or five inches of lime i* sufficient to remov* the acid vapours so far ai to pre vent thorn from reddenisg litmus paper. The lime seems in many respects to present important advantages over the zioc previously recommended.

The use of ana or river sand is injurious in the cleansing of glass or laboratory vessels, as the sharp fragments of qunrta scratch the surf ace of the glass. Lead shot, which is an excellent mechanical cleanser, is condemned, because it leaves parts oi its substance on the glass, which has to be removed by dilute nitric acid. Clean wood-ash is recommended by Ur. A. Mnl ler tor domestic use, as it acts both me* obanically and chemicnlly by its potash. Powdered rock salt is also used. For gloss vessels used in the laboratory he also recommends a pioco of india-rubber, cut into the form of a tongue, or other coo. venient shape, and iastenod to a flexible wire as a handle.

Fraud on a Famous Actress.

cosstjl GniFFiN's Cousin,

Miss Mary: Ahdbbson, the famonn American actress (who is a cousin of Consul Griffin, of Auckland, Vevf Z«aUnd),his re cently been the victim of an extremely im pudent, if not precisely no»el, conspiracy. Tbo lady was represented in a photograph a* being kissed ry someone unknown, and she was informed that unless she paid bl»ck-mvl th > photograph wcmld be distri buted brcadca-a. The picture is said to have been a very clumsy Jorsery, made by taking a photograph of the acro«s's fac«, of some other person's body, and tnaMng a thiru photograph from the com bination. To do this is so easy tnat a popular American journal, in commenting on the mutter, only oxircsses turpnoo that such picture*, which might, of cuur^e, do the mo^t se ions damage In many fnmilio*, &T°. not mon- ireqUeUily composed by ruacals with thutogrxpiiic a; titmic and con veniences, in the cia« of Miss Anderson th:plof completely failed. Instead of b ing the vic'ira, the lady proposes to be the avenser, ant ha 3 unde-tr.ken what the journal alided to calls "the un p!eaaatit duty oi pun'shing the black mailers." "We need a law casing the forging of photographs with tbe f ri»ing of signatures, and punishing it with at least as much severity as thnt with which the later crmc is punished," it is asserted by a New York writer, and, if the offence is common, this is so, To submit to the blackmailer i?, of course, to encourage him. Meantime, it is satisfactory to know that j these mischievous and daring scoundrels I are wrfl within reach of existing laws.
