THE SEARCHING OF THE RIVER TYRER FOR REMAINS OF ANTIQUITY. From " The London Nnqn:int," priatcd by B21(11160, Craduci, and Joy.] A plan for searching the bottom of the Tyher, to recover those remains of staitiaity over which there can be little doubt that its current rolls, must naturally engage the atteistion of the scholar, the antiquary, mid the artist. While the terra firma of Rome is teltnno daily giving back from its bosom some relic of ancient so ciety, it is reasonable to auppase. that the Ty her less its full share of these vidualiles. Best ies occasional inundations, which not only swept away the ‘‘ mortortnenta regis lemphigue Veshe," .but the bridges with their decoratto-s, these was the silent bat sure underiniiiing of 'saris of the banks, occasioned by the river—anti with them it received whatever of °momenta! graced the water's brink. To this cause the destruction of the magnificent facing of the island of gscillapius, wita its temples mid stature, must be attributed. The various conflicts, of which Koine itself was the theatre. also occostoileil mail a rich and beau tiful posses•ion to he thrown into the river, (sumo a wish to prevent its bolltsig bobs the hoods of the enemy. The destruction of all that was elegant during the Gothic Wats, was, we know, c.irried on by the Romans who defended, as will us the barbs. flans who attacked the city; mid the tomb of Aifrian, whose brae is washed by the Tvber, was stripped of its statues, that they might serve as missile weapons against the assuttants. The battle of Constantine and Aluocimus. fought within two miles of Rome, upon the banks of the river, soil the 5111vion bridge, must have filled its bed with the riches of inipetial army ; while the zeal of the first Christians precipitated many a beautiful idol into the stream. A feasible plan for recovering some of these riche► has always been desired, and various schemes have been proposed from issue to time, and pray sired with more or less success. Cardinal Poliguac conceived the idea of diverting the course of the Tyber for two miles: the immense expense that would have attended such a labour. was a less se rious abjection than the certain bad consequences to the inhabilesits, front the pestilential exhalations of the slims of the river. Whether practicable or spot. the death of Benedict XIII. prevented the pro secution of this design. Some more facile, and less dangerous pisus were proposed afterwards, and put iii executions Caissons were employed, by means of which it was posstble to search a smell portion of the bottom of the river, and to dig as upon dry land; but if this method had nut the some cliradvautirges as the . first, on account of exposing purls of the bed of the river to the sir, it was still vesy expensive, as well as dreadfully tedious. ♦s it is impossible to tell where she Tyber hides its treasures, it would be necessary to repeat such treenail/us in every part of its bed, aiiil the labour, is the great majority of instances, must be unsuccessful. An operation of this sort, howe►er, was made in 1773 by Don AlPhoni° Ilruzzi, under the auspices of Prince Alfieri and the Cavoliere Cinci, of which there is a detailed account ; but the caissons, not being heavy enough, rose again. and allowed very little time fur exca vating. Notwithstanding this, and although the place was selected by CIIBIIOC, they were so for tunate as to find enough to cover the experne. About the middle of the year 1818, Signor Giuseppe Bensordo Nero, conceived a new plait, which will be best described by au account of its actual operation. A vessel is constructed with two square wells, to the foremost of which a sort of frame is fitted, coatrived to descend to the bottom of the water. The lower part of this machine ciarsists of an iron cylinder, armed with teeth, which turns on an axis able under the water, by means of a chain and pally, worked with a strong windlass. When the beanio, between which the cylioder re volves, are wound down to the bottom, the teeth rake up the Lind as the cylitithr twos, :rod the ma. chine cunt issues to work downward into tin• car Us. If the teeth strike against any hard suhaaucr, the di vers go down and examine it, and the vessel is tl►eir mowed on so as to bring the secuml will aver she place.
