Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Ramble Round the World, 1871 An old man of eighty, the very type of a patriarch, leaning on the arm of a fine young fellow of one-and-twenty, has just crossed the deck. His manners are respectful and yet with a certain amount of dignity. He is an English peasant a Somersetshire man. Sir, he says to me, it '3 late in the day for me to emigrate, but I leave nothing but misery in England, and hope to find at least bread to eat in the New Country. Here are my two grandsons, showing me two lads by his side with a touching expression of tenderness and honest pride: their father and my granddaughter have stayed behind in our old village, and I shall never see them again. He gave a short cough; I looked another way, and he took advantage of it to brush his arm across his moistened eyes. There is a very good library on board - English classics, histories, reviews, and Watter Scott's novels. But to me the most amusing books to study are my fellow-travellers, coming as they do from every quarter of the globe and belonging to all classes of society. The mornings pass only too quickly. As for the meals, they are excellent as regards the quality of the food, but as to the cooking and the waiting, it is Old England before the Reform Bill. I don't complain. I only state the fact. The Directors of the Cunard Company are essentially Conservative. The least agreeable part of the day is the evening. It is difficult to read by the uncertain light of a candle, of which the wick is half blown out by a draught of air from the North Pole, sharp enough to give you the rheuma tism, although not enough to carry off the exhalations of the supper. As to your cabin, in these latitudes in the month of May, you may make up your mind to find the climate of an ice-house.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Round the Globe, in Old and New Paths Having made four visits to the Old World previous to 1887-1888, I set out on my tour "Round the Globe" somewhat apprehensive of the pleasures and inconveniences of travel. My aim was to improve every opportunity for gaining knowledge of lands and seas, of vegetable and animal life, of men and society, of schools and religions. I went where I pleased, meeting with kindly natures everywhere, - leading me to join the Syrian in affirming that a friend is fairer than the roses of Damascus and more precious than the pearls of Oman. The present volume is the record of sight-seeing and after-reflection of more than nine months experience in detours round the world. I am not so vain as to imagine that the book is free from peculiarities and imperfections. Still, my hope is that it may go forth, so fortunate as to encourage eyes to see, ears to hear, and memory to retain those things which tend to enlarge mental capacity and adorn human character.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Round the World Letters Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested, saith Lord Bacon. Because of the first part of this statement of the great authority I may venture to place this book before the public. There may be nothing to chew and digest, possibly nothing to swallow; but I believe there is something to taste. During a two years' tour of the world, completed a few months ago, I wrote a series of letters for The Providence Daily Journal. At the suggestion of its accomplished editor, Mr. G. W. Danielson, I made these letters a record prominently of personal sight-seeing and experiences. This book contains not only that series of letters somewhat altered, but many additions both from my notebooks and from another series of letters I contributed for a Cincinnati paper.

Soon after hewas elected their king: and thus we see that, in the infancy of society, men were chosen as rulers, who had distinguished themselves in the service and protection of their country. He established a senate of one hundred men, and divided the people into Patricians and Plebeians. At first the city was nearly square, built of mud, and governed the country only for eight miles round; yet this city was one day to give laws to all the world.
