The Coliseum.

Emilio CASTELAR, writes that il.e
Coliseum h; all ther ara'rristics Uf
Roman architecture. II eau be better
earned in this gr at example, lets
miraculous y by past ages, than in The
pages Of vii. wins, probably altered
and interpOlateu by ulc learned OF
the Renaissance period. Look at this
,nUI tar, that seems iiuI Lene,t a. gram
itc is hardened by ,hc irregular in
teernal movements of the planetl
Look at the cellars and vaults, contri.
vances unknown among tne Greeks,
admirably constructed III this land Of
strength ami empire! Behold the
arches which the Hellenic world
never erected, and that look like the
tr u npllal Ya ts by which history
entered with o new life and new
,pirlt. SEQ how the Roman has
placed q plinth TO support the Doric
pillar which the Greek rooted In the
bosom OF the earth as the trunk Uf .
tree! Contemplate thUsc three or
iers, always separated in Greek ar
chitccture and united here III an
ascending scale: first, the most SIM
pile aud severe. the D"rir, II the base;
then The iightcst aud most elegant,
,hc Ionic, in the centre; and, lastly,
.he most tlorid and ornate, the Corfu
THAN, crowning the whole as the
liuttum ami capital Oi the monument!
The spirit Ut II constructive people Is
visible in the whole bulldog. The
X oman has united tho three orders in
lis ercctiOns, AS he has united Tho
ureek gods in the Pantheon, and
nis style is the great tpil"gue Of Sn-
iiquc genius. Rome took from
Greccc her metaphysics and her re-
,igion, from the Slbines their women.
rom Spain her swords, frOh the
East her arches, and from Etruria her
BOWS. Thus il m"y be said that
.irccce is the flower and Rome tho
iruit of ancient history. Monuments
like the Coliseum are, IN fact, but the
mighty bones OI the iunniense OrXan-
.siu which compOscs the Eternal City.
