The great maritine Republics of the Middle Ages, which furnished “Tue Merchant of Venice to Shak- speare’s genius, aud by Columbus gave a ucw world to the old one, naturally stir the ambition of the reunited and rehabilitated Itallau people.

PUBLIC LANDS. ‘The Interfor Department Reforming Certain: Abuses, Spectat Dispatch to The Tribune. Wasninaton, D. C., July 31.—In 1855, when Thomas A.

In twenty years the total receipts of the Gov- ernment from thts source have Leen only $150,000, while the expensca of collect- ing lave amounted to $50,000. Persons who have cut tinber on the public Jands hayd gen- erally made thelr own estimate of the amount and value of itif they have thouqlt that the Register and Receiver knew of the cutting, but imuch more frequeutly they hays pald nothing. 8o extensive have these depredations baen that one report puts the number of milla on the Sabine River and to that vicinity In Loulslana engaged in sawing Jumber from Government. lands at cighteen, and regular lines of vessels are now engaged In earrying thelr product. to market.
