sIaHTs IN Holland.

A Rotterdam correspondent of the
Boston Traveller, writes:
Imagine a city where every other street
is a dirty canal filled with barges where
half the front doors open into brooks,
and the other half directly into the
streets, which are paved with brick. I'm
agine everything, from street door signs
to tree trunks, perfectly white and clean,
with the exception of the water with
which everything is washed. Imagine
everything looking as if they had just
been sent home from a laundry, nobody
dirty or shiftless, or slOVenlV, and all the
peasants hobbliDg about in huge wooden
shoes of an hundred pounds burden Ito
use nautical phrase), with sOles two
inches thick. Imagine several hundred
small hand carts laden with fruit aud
vegetables, pulled by dogs who trOt under
the axletree while the seller holds the
affair up by the handles 10 the rear. The
horses are very few IN NUM- ber, and queer
looking beasts they are. In fact, they
don't resemble horses at all, and are so
thin and miserable In their aspect, that 1
don't wonder at the peasants preferrlng
the dogs 10 their places. all freight and
heavy goods are transported by water, and
consequently there are but few wagons,
Those few are heavy and awkward, and
are fastened to the horses by ropes. The
streets are lined with shade trees, and
many of the houses have beautiful gar
dens, with rivulets instead of flower beds,
and shaded islands in the place of sum
mer houses.
Dutch beds, stables, barnyards, in fact
everything that [ have seen in Dutohland,
clean and fresh. In COW houses the
animals tails are tied up to a hook in the
ceiling that they may not get solled by
contact with the floor; and when they
go out to pasture in the spring, they have
a cloth tied round them, as little boys
have bibs, to keep them nice and clean.
Bugs and spiders stand no possible chance
of existence in Holland Every week the
whole energy of the inhabitants IS devot-
ed to scrubbing and cleaning, and indeed
the whole city retains a damp appearance
all the week from the terrible dFenchlng
which It gets on Saturday.
When person is sick, an announce
ment to that effect IS put up outside the
door, and charged like a bulletin as the
disease progresses or is checked.
In walking about this morning, I saw
several men walking very rapidly, with
enormous thrce-cOrnered black hats on,
short black coats covered with ribbons,
small clothes and black socks, They
carried in their hands ck-edged paper,
covered with writing. The hideOus hired
mourners of England are ugly enough,
but these outdo them. They were all hat
and ribbons, and [ have just found out
that they are the death announcers, and
that IL IS their cheerful business in life
to continually call upon the friends Of
any one deceased and usher In the mourn
fuI tidings, with an invitation to the
funeral

Monotony is destructive. The sea has
nothing but itself-the desert the same
But the country has variety, and here is
the charm of life. So in all our enjoy
ments, there must be variety. For in
stance, how keen are the first enioyments
the first glimpses of spring, the first airs
of autumn--any pleasant event long de-
layed-music, after a long interval If a
man has not heard music for a long time,
the sound even of jews harp is well
come. Now, the wisdom of life is to take
advantage of these things; enjoy one and
then another; thus each one will be fresh
if time be given the chords of the mind
so to speak, to gather keenness. Hence
there is a constant round of more or less
enjoyment. This is the best that can be
done with life according to the best minds
And then the prosaic moments must in.
tervene, to still further make up the va.
