1.-THE Autocrat of The Breakfast Table, 4 makes
The following graphic AND poetical contrast /:
j have lived by the >eashore and by the
mountains. No, ! am not going to say which
lsfbest. The one where your placeis is The best
for yon. But this difference, there is yot, ca
do,Aesticate mountains, but The sea is israe ma.
turae. Yon may have q hut, or know the
E0wlleri nt one, IN the M~ouniain-sale; ynn see u
light halfway np its ascent in the evening. and
you know there is d Hume, aud You might share
it. You have noted certain trees, perhaps /;
you know the particular zone where The hem
locks look so black in October, when the ma.
pies aud beeches have { died. All its reliefs
and intaglins have electrotyped themselves III
the medallions that hang round the walls Of
your memorys chamber. The sea remembers
nothing it is ielin'. 1t licks your feet-its
hinge tanks purr very pleasantly for you but
il will crack yunr bones aud eat ynu, for all
that, and vine the crimson foam from its Jaws
us il nothing had happened. The mountains
give their Inst children berries and water the
sea Knocks their thirst, and lets them die. The
mountains have u grand, stupid, loveable tran
guilty the sea has q fascinating, treacherous
telligence. The mountains lie about like
huge ruminants, their broad backs awful to
look npon, but sale to handle The SCI smoo,bs
its silver scales until you cannot Yea Their
joints-hnt their shining is that of d snakes
belly, after all. In deeper suggestN eness |
find as great u difference. The niSuntains
dwarf mankind, and fore-shorten the pro ession
of its long generations. The sea drowss out
humanity and time it has no sympathy with
either, fur il belongs 10 eternity, and Of tnat it
strings It's monotonous song for ever and ever,
Yet | should love to have a little box by
the sea,shore. | should love to gaze on the
wild feline element from the front window Of
my own, just as | should love to look On n
Gagged panther, and see it stretch its shining
length, aud then curl over and lap its smooti,
sides, and by aud by to begin to lash itself in
to a rage. and show its white teeth, and spring
at lis ba $, aud howl the cry of its mad. but
to me-, harmless fury. And ihen-to look at
il with the Inward %eye-who does not love to
shuttle off time and its concerns at intervals
to forget who is President and who is Cover
nor, what race he belongs to, what language he
speaks, which golden headed nail of the iirma.
meai his particular planetry system is hung up
upon, aud listen to the great liqnid me,ronome
as 1t beats lis solemn measure, steadily singing
when the solo on due, or human life began, and
to swing just as eteadily after the human
chorus has died out, and man is q fossil On Its
shores.
