Here you see no one stirring, either in the fields or about the houses. And here I am sorry to re- y mark, for the first time, since I commenced travelling, a bad disposition, and want of principle in the people, dangerous to unprotected travellers; it is hazardous both in the stage and at the inns. The inn-keeper, where we breakfasted after leaving Hartford, is the greatest ruffian I ever met with in any country, and in every respect unworthy the public patronage. We had ruffians in the stage, and the driver himself was one of the rudest, savage looking men I have seen. There was but one man in the stage who might be said to be a gentleman; and by our joint threats we made out to arrive safe at Worcester, about three o'clock P. M., having left Hartford at six A. M. For several miles before entering Worcester, the country is nothing but one mass of stones. Nothing but stone fences in this country, from Albany, with slight exceptions, to this town; and I am told they are universal in the New-England States. They add much to the scenery of the country, by laying it off in squares, by the regularity and symmetry of their appearance. Worcester.--Worcester is a very handsome town; very much like Springfield, and about the same size. The streets are wide and straight; the houses DEGREESof wood, principally, ) are painted white; and though planted with trees, it has not that rural air which the luxuriant olms give to Springfield. It has a very pompous courthouse, resembling the President's house at Washington city, 4 churches, a prison, an alms-house, 2 banks and 2,962 inhabitants. But it is chiefly remarkable for the residence of one of the most distinguished families in Massachusetts--I mean the Waldo family--judge Lincoln, (same.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Domestic Manners of the Americans: Or, Characteristic Sketches of the People of the United States National Sensitiveness. - The Americans are fond of assuring travellers that all they want on account of their country and themselves is fair play; that they court scrutiny, so that it is reported without flippancy or scurrility; but whenever the reply to their frequent question of "what do ye think of us upon the whole," is not unmingled praise, it is easy to perceive that they are dissatisfied and disappointed. The British traveller is, especially, annoyed by the absurd vanity, as, the Americans are particularly sensitive to the opinion entertained of them by the British, and appear to care far less for what mere foreigners think of them. The Americans are very adroit in seizing on every circumstance in the least available for self-laudation. One day I happened to mention to a lady how much I had been amused by observing the stage-coach drivers, managing their horses so much more by words than by the whip. "O yes, Sir," said she, "the circumstance is interesting, as showing intelligence in our men, and sagacity m the animals." I smiled at this curious interchange of human wisdom and brute sagacity, but the lady, not satisfied with the expression of my countenance, tired up and answered my smile by asking "If I did not think the people of America, upon the whole, remarkably intelligent." - Captain Hall.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The following work is the substance of various speculations, that occasionally amused the author, and enlivened his leisure-hours. It is not intended for the learned; they are above it: nor for the vulgar; they are below it. It is intended for men, who, equally removed from the corruption of opulence, and from the depression of bodily labour, are bent on useful knowledge; who, even in the delirium of youth, feel the dawn of patriotism, and who in riper years enjoy its meridian warmth. To such men this work is dedicated; and that they may profit by it, is the author's ardent wish, and probably will be while any spirit remains in him to form a wish"--Preface.
