terpart of such a beautiful scene as
the delineation of the extreme lowell
ness ''of the great awakening" in rev.
Citations. Presently the beauties of
nature will emerge from the existing
state of inertness to that of general
activity. From out of the silent
tomb proceeds a vast wealth of floral
vegetation, carefully preserved with
the tenderest solicitude from the saw
age blasts of the severe winter we
have just experienced, to burst anew
in the budding of ten thousand bios
SONS that will perfume the air with
fragrance that is delicately sweet.
Reader, if you can imagine the splen-
dor of the magnificent panorama that
the homelands present it will afford
you an accurate conception of the far
famed garden of Eden. Allow me to

author: mot in vain we seek life's
meaning. If we lift our heedful eyes;
Voices everywhere enthrall US, the
whole universe replies"
