Confederate ram Virginia, in 1862. Divers
had been at work on the deck ten years, hav-

The lucky man had only been at the wreck
forty-eight hours, when he found the safe

The BargellO i'm Florence.
Florence (Italy) letter.


This palace, the oldest in Florence, has, in
some degree, the historical interest which
surrounds the Tower of London, since it is a
memorial of dark days of strife, of civil war
and foreign tyranny, of the Inquisition, OF
secret tribunals, Of tortures and executions.
It was originally the palace of the Podesta or
governor, and came to be known by its pres
emit name when Duke Cosimo gave to the
''barzilo'' or "chief of police" the right to
reside there. In the court of the palace the
executions took place, in the tower were the
dungeons, and in the low dark passages
through which the prisoners passed to their
cells were trap. doors, which opened beneath
unsuspecting feet, and left the reigning power
secure in the conviction that 'dead men tell
no tales"
The quantity Of human bones taken out
within few years from well underneath one
Of these trap-doors tells now terrible tales of
the Florentine Republic and the men who
made and executed its laws. The bell in the
tower has hung there $50 years. 1t was at
first ALWAYS tolled when an execution took
place, and was also the evening signal for
eyery citizen to return to his home. Duke
Cosimo decreed that any one found in the
street after this bell had ceased to sound
should have his right hand amputated.
After this barbarous law was annulled, the
custom of striking the bell every night at IL
was continued till lS4S. In 1866 the bargello
became the National Museum, and contains
collections of arms, sculptures, models for
and copies OF celebrated works, exquisite
ivory carvings, bronzes and specimens OF
terra Gotta and msjolica ware. Many Of the
objects are private property temporarily
placed here.

FRIDAY. DECEM. 10, 1875.
ThurlOw Weed on Henry wilson's AsPir
ati0ns.

From an Interview In the y. Y Tribune.
He paid his last visit to me two
weeks ago Sunday. He was on his
way TO Washington. He seemed
very much depressed and looked pal
lid. He would not admit that he
was III, and talked hopefully. We
talked about his being a candidate for
the Presidency, aud l saw that his
whole heart was enlisted. For the
last year or two his ambition got the
better of his Judgment. Like most
men spoken Of for the Presidency,
the thought came to possess him. 1t
WIS his misfortune, not an offence.
Mr.. Wilson showed nervousness du-
ring the last year, and this ambition
aggravated the disease. If he had
been nominated and elected, he would
have die. in the hour of victory, and
the disappointment ola defeat in con-
yention or at the polls would like
wise have killed him. Thejudguaent
OF posterity will be that he was a
second r. ger Sherman and a states
man. He was occasionally closely
allied with Thaddeus Stevens. He
admired Stevens in a qualified sense.
Mr.. Wilson was always trying 10
hold Sumner back, TO modify his
views, and make him more practical.
The country Will always overestimate
Sumner, / think, though / dislike
to say il. Wilson was more useful
than Sumner, though not so cultiva-
ted. l think his great work on the
Rise and Fall of the Slave Power"
displays wonderful ability, research,
and clear judgment. He never visit
ed me without talking about his
book, and frequently read me por-
items Of the manuscript. When last
here he said it was his intention to
complete his volume this winter.
The hope of completing the work
buoyed him up during the last hour.
He went to Saratoga during the sum
mer to write, but became weary and
went south. | think the presidential
question troubled him. He had a
great pride in feeling that his book
was The work which would make his
name live In history, and that it
would become the standard work on
the great question to which he gave
the best part of his life.
