Lotteries In Italy.

Italy, writes correspondent from
Rome, is afflicted with another plague,
even more destructive than that Of
counterfeiting. more tremendous In
It's evil results, and which inyades every
department and every class. The gov.
eminent itself regulates the lotteries,
with the idea, probably, Of limiting
what could not be avoided, and profit
ing by it. II is said that the annual
net profit which it derives from this
tutelage is sl5,OO0,OO0. But it is con-
sidered only temporary measure, the
FINAL aim OF Italv's statesmen being to
abolish vice which destroys habits OF
industry and encourages crime. 1t may
be considered doubtful whether this is
the best wav 10 10 il. but the
habit was already deeply rooted
in the character OF the Italians. II is
now at least conducted with perfect
honesty, the highest dictionaries OF the
CITY taking part in the extraction Of the
numbers. This ceremony takes place
IN Rome every Saturday afternoon in s
semi-circular building on the Via Ri
petta. and is one Of the relics OF old
times which is destined TO pass away.
In high balcony in the center Of this
convex semi circle are seated delegate
OF the project and several other gentle
men, who pass the fortunate number
from one to the other until it is held
up to the people and called out by a
city guard. The people stand on the
street with their heads raised and their
ewes fixed on the balcony until hope Is
quenched in certainty or satisfied with
success. The part of Italy most infected
with this vice is Csmpania, where the
annual average for each inhabitant is
about $3.50. Rome is seconi; then fol-
lows Tuscany, while Liguria is sixth
upon the list Another class OF citizens
in Rome redeem il from this stain by
industry and saving, theannual medium
for every person being thirty one francs.
The system OF savings banks is wisely
encouraged by few able social econo-
mists, among whom is Luzzatti, Jew
and member of parliament. This is
the true weapon with which to combat
the vices Of idleness, long encouraged
BY the government. The people
have responded to the invitation with
bar greater promptitude than could have
been expected.
The number of insane persons in the
United States is put down by experts
at 100000. and the same authorities
say that from ten t. sweaty per cent

STEELToN, Dauphin County, Pa,
March 3lst, 1881 have just read
with sorrow and regret Of the death Of
Mr.. Samuel G. Tazewell in.this weeks 8
REPUBLICAN. There is one item In
which you are . little out Of the way,
that wish to corro0t, although " 10 not
of much cOnseQ uence and will appear
- 60 on.
As have been 30 ultimately connect
ed with him In the past, felt as If l
should like to add q word of respect to
his memory as could not attend his
funeral. l first became acquainted with
him when he went to Messrs. Belts &
Seals foundry at Eighth and Orange
streets, and not at Delaware Avenue as
the REPUBLICAN had 1t.
He came under the foremsnship Of
tho late Joseph d. Pierson, who also
served his apprenticeship there. After
his death, my brother William assumed
charge, and after his departure to Chez
ter, l took charge.
We all served our apprenticeship
there. After the dissolution of Messrs.
Belts h Seal, MIR. Tazewell and myself
carried on the business Of pattern and
model making, at the old stand, until
the place was sold. We then went to
Fourth street between Tatnall and West
In the Pierce shop where we continued
III business together for about four
years.
After that we drifted apart until he
settled finally at the S,otsenburg Foun-
dry Company, and drifted up here in
January, 1875, where l have continued
in charge Of the pattern shop of the
Pennsylvania Steel Company. In con-
clusion offer my sympathies to his be-
reaved family, and otter this Is mark
of respect to his memory.
Yours Respectfully,
HENRY FOTHERGILL.

writs at the opening of court on Mon.
day, the company concentrated all its
force between Erie and Cleveland, and
