Bell tower, whose rare beauty is the perfect
realization OF Ho,ace's simplex lnundi'1=." It's
bands and plnntls OF yellow, black and red mar
hic5 harmonizs si;h those OF the Cathedral, and
are adorned wan bas-rslieis, and surrounded by
sixteen statues larger than lie, one OF which is
the famous 'Zacconc,'' which grew under the
hands o: the artist DoaGteIl0 with such spirit
and scmblancc of life that at last in his enthu-
sasm, as ne gave it the las. stroke OF his chi.el
ne called upon It to 'Speak.'
The Baptisteryis the third Of the usual Csthc-
drel group. It's internal similarity to the Pan
theon and the ancient columns which surrounded
it give some plausibility to the tradition that i,
WAS originally Roman temple TO the God Mas.
It's cupoa is covered with old ,iosac pictures
of brilliant colcrs, which extend some way down
the walls All the Forcntines are bap,ised in
this building, TO the number OF $3.50 per annum.
The ceremony may therefore be seen at almost
any time, and is rather curious, but at my frat
visit, the miniature Italian cried SO shriily with
such powerful lungs, that could not stay to see
It's end.
Tine Gates Of the Baptistery are the great pride
of Florence. Michael Angelo used to say that
he was in constant fear that the angels would
carry them of some night to make of them the
gates OF Paradise. They are of fine bronze
covered with bassorce7os Of sacred subjects,
depicted with : Life and spirit and delicate beauty,
which have left the artists who have since lived,
nothing to do but to admire. Each of the many
paancls OF the doors contains projecting picture
in bronze, telling its story with wonderful DIS,
linctness Each head OF the many hundred Is
finished with the most minute fidelity, and each
single one is masterpiece, while the fac per-
spec;ive Of the recedins landscapes give them the
effect Of the realities seen through the diminish
ing end Of telescope. The two finest gates
occupied GhiJerti forty years. The incident
which gave the commission 10 him is a noble IL,
ustra;ion Of the generosity of artists. The thin
,yfour Judges thought GhibsFti too young, IN
spite Of the merit OF his designs and allotted the
gates. after an exciting contest, to Bruaellescfi
Bar.o!uccio, and Donatcllo. These three great
artists, and what is more, honorable men. after 4
private consultation, declared to The judges thai
thcy believed in their soul and conscience thai
the prize had been wrongly awarded TO them.
and tia: ii was Justly due 10 Lorenzo Ghberil-
The result Of their generosity was these wonders
Of the world, w:ci you may pass hours IN stnd}.

enough for your first days ,1G!A M FLoRENoE.
