many sailing vessels. Towards the north and
south lie wooded slopes, here md there a
spit of land with it's green folds, straw Gov
cred houses and white country churches, and
out on the horizon can be seen an island, mp
pearlng like a tremendous whale. 1t is de-
lightful here at all times of the doy aud in
all weathers IN the morning when the sun
rises out of the sea like q glowing ball of FIRE,
rejecting itself in the windows of the bous-
es, and finally covers everything with its
golden cape; IN the eoarnt gunaUtey Evenings,
when the moon shines on the water d,A,11Q

harbour piers, when the lighthouse can only
be cleaned through the spray IN cuIa
e0e0ther, when the sea lies bright as a mirror
with peculiar changing colours as far as the
eye can reach, stealing it, shades from the
golden sun, from the blue sky and from the
changing colours Of the shore.
And out from the water, from the decks
Of the boats and pleasure yachts, or from tho
small c|ousting steamers, running specially
along the coast, both north q south to and
from the various stations, the "NNhite City."
