Book excerpt: Excerpt from Parley's Panorama, or Curiosities of Nature and Art, History and Biography It has been often said that truth is more wonderful than fiction. The force of this observation is manifest to those who have a liberal acquaintance with books, or have otherwise stored their minds from the great treasuries of human knowledge and experience. To the ignorant, trifles often appear mysterious and wonderful; while things really amazing are viewed with indifference. To a child, the blaze of a candle is an object of intense admiration. When it appears, it excites delight; when it vanishes, it creates wonder. But the moon, which to the instructed mind suggests ideas of the most lofty and sublime nature, excites in the infant only a transient and vague emotion, to be replaced by images of toys and baubles. It is thus, in proportion as the mind is cultivated and enlarged, that the wonders of Nature and Art, of History and Biography, become topics of interest, and sources of reflection and enjoyment. The more of truth there is in the mind, the more does truth itself become attractive. The appetite for knowledge knows no satiety; it increases as it is fed; its relish is the keener in proportion as it is indulged. In this view of the subject, we have collected a variety of remarkable facts, calculated to gratify curiosity, and impart instruction.
