THE REJECTED 'I‘R[‘.ASURE.
FRO“ Till". S\VI".Dl$H.
In the heart of Route, not far from the
palace of San Marco, stands a lztrge and
imposin_r_r cdil?cc, whose walls, though em-
ibrowncd by age, seem to defy the power
=of time and to have been designed for e-
gteruity. Its simple untidovncd style of
larcliitectiire increases the feeling of awe,
'which the very massivenes oftlie pile it-
,self inspires. Like most of the Roman
palaces, it stands forth very prondly and
majestically_by moonlight. Euviroried by
other tall sti'uctures, it _llSLml.ly -—'.£llJ‘()\\‘n -
into the shade, or r'a‘t‘i~.1-r scents a mysteri-
otis giant sliatlow. among the more cheer-
fttl and brigb‘.l_v illttiiiiiiated l'lllI‘.'(‘.l:CS atid
palaces arotmd it. The bt.tilt'ling is called
the Collcgio Romano, and is still the capi-
itol of the Order ofJt.-suits.
Massive as this palace is, itneverthcless
like all other btiildings, requires consider
able ou.lay to protect it from gradual dc-
cay. Its erioririotts extent, and its numer-
otis aparttriciits, occupied by the members,
nrli;-pas-or novices of the oiclel‘, or used as
repositories for the arcliievcs, e.\'cbequer,
library and other collet-tiotzs belonging to
the society, involve the necessity of cori-
starit inspection, and almost constant re-
pair. A month rarely pa:-ses, during
which either joiners, painters, plasterers
or masons, are not employed on some por-
tion of the edifice.
One day in the month of August, 18:}. ,
