Book excerpt: Excerpt from A System of Geography, Popular and Scientific, or a Physical, Political, and Statistical Account of the World and Its Various Divisions, Vol. 2 Population.] Upwards of one-third of the surface of Switzerland, co sisting of Alps and Glaciers, is wholly uninhabitable.

Most of the le speal these different languages very ill, especially the Germans, Wm dialect in many of the cantons is almost unintelligible to a native of Germany. Manners and Ciatoms.) The Swiss are in general a robust and hand some race, their labour being such as invigorates without exhausting the human frame. The costumes of Switzerland are simple, and calculated rather for convenience than ostentation, but are not on that account the less graceful. The higher ranks imitate the fashions prevalent in France. The Swiss have preserved many of the original features of their national character, particularly in those cantons which have least intercourse with foreigners. They are brave and honest in a high degree; and notwith standing their habits of emigration, their attachment to their countryis proverbial, and few leave home without the hope in prospect of at least returning to end their days in the home of their childhood. The Swiss, while engaged in foreign service, will often have his whole national sym pathies so powerfully awakened by a Swiss air, as to forget a soldier's onour in his longings to revisit his fatherland; and nothing cheers the industrious Swiss pedlar, during his long wanderings through all the towns of Europe, so much as the prospect of returning home and becoming the proprietor of a little smiling cottage on the Engadine, or some other to mantic district of his native land. The Swiss dine generally at mid-day. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Pictorial Geography of the World, Vol. 2: Comprising a System of Universal Geography, Popular and Scientific, Including a Physical, Political, and Statistical Account of the Earth and Its Various Divisions, With Numerous Sketches From Recent Travels; The New World The Greenlanders indemnify themselves for their toils at sea, by taking their case on shore where all the labors, and even those of bringing the huge stones for their dwellings, are per formed by females. The lot of the females is hard; de tied to the rank of slaves, they are not permitted even to eat in the company of men. In such: state of society, marriage is hardly ever a contract made by the consent of b0th parties. The marriages are made with little cere mony, and the courtships are very summary. The lover, after an understanding with the pa rents, sends or goes for his bride, and resistance on her part is of little avail indeed, a certain degree of it has grown into a custom, for it is thought discreditable in a woman to be lightly or willingly won. Before marriage, the females are said to conduct themselves in a more moral way than after, and there is little evil that can be justly said of them while they are single. There are few divorces where there are children; though this depends upon the will of the husband, whose authority is unlimited. He may beat his wife without reproach, but would sub ject himself to much animadversion were he to strike a female domestic for the wife to strike one, is unpardonable.
