Grass That Is Not Green.

It may be noted that the one defect of
the Riviera is. that it is not green. A
few of our forest trees would make the
landscape perhaps too perfect. The
olives which clothe the hills. are gray.
The grass is scanty and i'll grown. When
a millionaire would indulge in the lux
ury of lawn he has to resow it every
year; from which the reader accustomed
to immemorial turf, which has lived
through as many generations as would
suffice to confirm the nobility of fam
ily, will understand what grass is in
these regions. But our Frenchman was
none the less sure. Sir" said an Ameri.
can, afterwards, "there is no grass in the
world like English grass, except at New.
port; there is beautiful grass at New.
port" And we bethought us, to soothe
our feelings, of Mr.. John Burroughs, the
American naturalist, who declares that
if we would but refrain from washing
for little while, such is the soft and
dewy character of our climate, u green
ness would grow all over us-a turfy de
post upon our hands, gentle veil oi
moses upon our uncovered brows. Sucf
