VANDALISM IN ITALY.

Florence.-For centuries con-
spicuous object on the beautiful hill
of Arceti, above Florence, the famous
Star tower" of Calico. where the
great astronomer made many of his
most important discoveries, is now
practically ruined. What goes by the
name of commercial enterprise is re-
sponsible for this act of vandalism
which robs the world of another of its
historic places of pilgrimage. The pic
turesque structure has been swathed in
scaffolding, while workmen have been
cutting down the quaint castellated
tower by third of its former height,
piercing it's walls with two new tiers
of windows and adding a loggia.
When the vulgar dissertation is COM
pleted, in place of the venerable tower,
surrounded by luxuriant masses OF
wild flowers, will appear an ugly con-
glomeration of anachronisns, standing
in the dreary waste Of new made
