PETER THE GREET AND n COUNTRY
CLELG YlN.4N

The Gear Peter of Russia, was too wise
monarch to lose sight for moment of so
important and object as agriculture. What
ever part of the'world he visited, nothing rel
ative to that science escaped his attention.
in all his travels, whether through France,
Holland, or Germany, when he saw the
country people at work on the right or the
left of the road, he left his carriage to OBJ
serve them, and generally conversed with
them Oil the subject of their occupations.
He frequently entered their houses. examin-
ed every thing, particularly their utensils of
husbandry, of which he sometimes made
drawings on the spot, and always wrote
down his remarks on tablets he carried about
him for that purpose. 1t was more especial
ly his amusement at each stage while the
horses were changing.
AS he was passing through village, on
his return to Paris he saw man dressed ve-
ry different from the peasants, at work in
garden or moderate extent Finding, on in
quiry, that this iaborious cultivator was the
vicar CT the place, he entered the garden,
which he perceived to be well stocked with
handsome fruit trees, the house being situa-
ted in the middle, and little forest Of null
berry trees behind. The Cz.u conversed

Soft blending with submissions due,
And note thy bosom's tenderness,
To every Just emotion true;
And when the new idea glows
On the pure altar Of thy mind,
Observe the exulting tear that flows,
In silent ecstacy refined.
Thy active life, thy look of bliss,
The sparkling Of thy magic eye,
He would his sceptic doubts dismiss,
And lay his useless pity by.

Or trcmblcd at that sterner tone,
That while it fortures, chiLS the heart.
And bless the lip that nc'er can tell.

Nor pour those idle words that swell,

As sweet scene, as faira shore,
As rich soil its tide may lave.
