D„, Fiiibno Mouse:— An entire week would 

 hardy suffice for a surrey of the most distinguish 

 ed aigbU and scenes in ond about Vicuna, nod yet 

 I managed to eDJoy the must within the spec* of 

 half a week. Oo the day following my arrival I 

 bent my way directly to the Imperial Palace, to b« 

 ill vast mwiljlll and monument* — the seal of 

 Austria Sovereignty sinee the lSlhcentury. The

do, but gazed with u feeling of awe miogled with 

 disgust on him whose despotic sway I had but re- 

 cently observed with my own eyes heavily press- 

 ing upon my noble countryman — the Magyar*, — 

 The sight of that young hut imperial brow re- 

 , died i,i idi memory volumes of wrongs Leaped 

 upon the devoted land of the Iluns, and I could 

 not conscientiously join the crowd in presenting 

 htm a token of respect. After the Emperor was 

 out of tight, the soldiers retired to their barracks, 



i i, (i ,iii several others about me, entered the 



Museum connected with the court. Here, within 

 the space of three hours, my eyes glanced rapidly 

 over the vast zoological, mineralogical and astro- 

 aomfcal cabinets. The zoological specimens are 

 arranged according to I In- various continents of 

 the world, whoso animals they represent. The 

 minorulogical cabinet, contained in three large 

 halls, is one of the greatest collections in the 

 world, numbering over 100,000 specimens, among 

 which I noticed two meteoric stones found near 

 Ayriun iu 17-'.l. and neighing, respectively, 70 and 

 LOO pounds. Formerly the botanical collection, 

 which is said to be erjual to any in the world, was 



yean igo to the garden of the University in one 

 of the suburbs. The library, containing over 300,- 

 000 hooks and 80,000 MSS , and over 12,000 works 

 printed in the early part of the IGlh century, the

 without notice, as I wished to Spend the remain-

 To obtain admission to this I was obliged to pro- 

 cure a card (gratis, ' the duv before, otherwiso you 

 cannot enter without giving the porter n florin 

 (about 50 cents.) Here the eye is dazzled by thf 

 numerous ri'splMidcol j e « c I * , diamonds, gold anc

 works of art, a large badge of the Thercsian Order 

 containing near 6(K> brilliants; the great diamond 

 of Chorlos the Bold, of Durguudy, found after the

lint of these

 out with rows of trees and grass-plots, and in 

 pany with a friendly cicerone, who described 

 >e the character of the numerous stately edi- 

 i and distant prospects which the eye here be- 

 ts to the right and left. The best place to begin 

 circuitous walk is at the magnificent Uurgthor 

 (gate leading from the court to the suburbsj built 

 of the Peopyleum of Athens with 

 s of the Done order and five pas- 

 sages. Turning to the left, I arrived, in little oTcr 

 hour, at the ParadUe Garden from which I 

 pissed to the Volktgarten, which is just to the 

 right of the Burot/ior. Here you could see the 

 peopU of Vienna all olive, drinking beer or coffee, 

 and listening to the band of music which still more 

 enlivened the scene. Here you might also see 

 specimens of the thirteen different nationalities 

 composing the heterogeneous realm of Austria, 

 L tii dot and then a Turk in oriental costume, who 

 being educated in the various branches of art 

 id science in the Polytechnic and other eduea- 

 >ual institutions of Vienna. Here I really enjoy- 

 ed the cool, refreshing breeze of the evening, wafl- 

 g harmonious music to my ear, as I too, partook 

 of a gloss of beer (which is most excellent here,) 

 and bread and cheese; and to crown the delights 

 of the day, 1 took a view of the Temple of Thtteut 

 built here in Grecian stylo, by Nobile,) contain- 

 ng a marble group (Theseus slaying the Centaur) 

 by Canova — oue of the greatest master-pieces of 



Thus pleasantly passed the second day of my 

 -ojiinrii in the imperial residence, where 

 pend twice twenty-four hours 

 I intended to devote about one-fourth to (he envi- 

 for the beauty of which Vienna is justly cel- 

 ebrated. The most charming of these, and one to 

 which the citizens of Vienna are continually rc- 

 ■ting during the summer months, is Xchernbrunn, 

 the favorite summer residence of the Emperor.— 



n hour's ride with the omnibus will bring you to 



spot, than which you can hardly imagine any- 

 thing more charming and striking. The eye is 

 here abundantly satisfied for that whieh it so much 

 lucksin thecity. At first vievSchtenbrunn ("fair 

 fountain" — so-colled, from the cool, beautiful well 

 where the mighty hunter Emperor Matthias, re- 

 freshed himself in Kltf, and first conceived the idea 

 building a hunting palace here,) appears like a 

 flower of a hundred beauties, spreading before you 



slanting valley of parks and gardens, woods and 

 hedges, with here aud there a stately edifice or 

 — the whole presenting a pano- 

 graceful combination of Nature 

 and Art. But let us draw nearer and examine 

 each beauty more closely. Taking our position in 

 the center we behold the royal palace (which owes 

 its present form to Maria Theresa,) three stories 

 high aud near three thousand feet in length. The 

 majestic court-yard, filled with rattling carriages 

 aud hurrying pedestrians, wending their way to 

 the right ond left, would of itself produce a much 

 greater charm, did we not, through the open-arched 

 sate beneath the principal balcony, seo a most al- 

 luring perspective — the park with its fragrance 

 and sunshine, it* fountains find monuments — 

 in the rear, on the top of a sloping hill 

 " Gloriette," seeming like a key-stone to this v 

 gated scene. The Gloriette is a long, airy and 

 fairy-like portico, from whoso pillared platform

It was just noon when I finished ray survey of 

 these rich collections; and hastily partaking of a

"The Patio, or open yard of the Regla,on which 

 the principal portion of the ores of the Real del 

 Monte company are 'benefited,' or, as we should 

 say, extracted, is situated deep down in a barranca, 

 where both water-power and intense heat cau he 

 ahtained to facilitate the process of separation. 

 The immense amount of mason-work here expended 

 in the erection of massive wslls, would make an 

 imposing appearance if they had been built up in 

 the open plain ; but here they are so overshadowed 

 by the mason-work of nature, that they sink into 

 ignificancc, in comparison. The bank, some 

 i hundred feet high, of solid rock, as it ap- 

 proaches the waterfall on either side, bas the 

 appearance ol being supported by natural buttresses

 formal, had the sides of the barranca been lined 

 only with perpendicular columns ; but broken and 

 displaced pillars ore piled in every conceivable 

 position against the front, while a vine with bril- 

 liant leaves had run to every fissure, ond spread 

 itself out to enjoy the sunshine. The little stream 

 that had burst its way through the upright columns

 perfect basin of basalt, heightening immensely the

The see.. nd consideration I based somen hat upon 

 the supposition that if during the muscular labor 

 inm.t think over or digest what he bas been 

 ng from his hooks, his studies would be less 

 sting than if the reverse were the truth; and 

 such is the case, though it is dependent in a great 

 measure upon what the studies are. This conside- 

 ration, also, invoke* the one which Vinton illus- 

 , though it would hardly seem to me that the 

 ice he mentiona afforded such "conclusive 

 ice" to the troth of it as he states. On tho 

 contrary, be can go on a ainular errnud, think over 

 bis reading as before, and my word for it, he will 

 again fall into that predicament, unless inten- 

 tionally. His experience will teach him better, and 

 sve that in some cases two employments can 

 be pursued at one time with profit ; to be aura, nei- 

 ther will be done as well as when our whola »Ucn- 

 is directed to one atone, but the advantage, 

 derived from both would more than make up the 

 deficiency. In planting or hoeing corn, for cxam- 

 )le, it is well nigh impossible to keep the mind 

 teadily fixed upon the work. One's thoughts will 

 ic running upon something, and better by far bare 

 hem engrossed with what wo have read from some 

 iseful book, than with the interminable yarns of 

 lome gossiping fellow who can readily be distin- 

 guished from the rest by his being furthest behind 

 his row. But, there are olso other kinds of 

 work which require the head us well as tho hands, 

 a the whole, in view of these facts, ond also 

 we are most of us differently situated aa 





plate the unexpected scene, of which, at that time, 

 I had read nothing. There was such a mingling of 

 the rich vegetation of the 'hot country' with the 

 rocky ornaments of this pretty waterfall, that I 

 could never grow weary of admirin; 

 grandeur aud beauty of the place."

 a little, and while we enjoy the hue pre 

 ie ocean of houses in the distance t Vit 

 the still more distant hills of HuDgury, tbiuk 

 oment of the great, cheering, mid mournful 

 ei thai have taken place on the vciy spot and 

 ce before us. Here the threads of the Si 

 rs' War were spun; here Joseph II, celebrated 

 his hymeneal festivities ; here Arch-Duke Cn 

 .uslered the brave troops (1801,) who w 

 eet the all-compieiniL; forces <.>f Doxapabt; 

 :re the great Napolbos himself, after his victori- 

 as career in lsiv.i, took up his residence, while his 

 siu-ei'-sTiil marshals paraded their veteran army in 

 the glistening sun. Here, too, the exile of St.

 To the right, in one of the labyrinthine gardens,

,11 say,— enough about Vienna, too. I will not, 

 therefore, trouble you with a description of what 

 other things I saw in and about the Austrian cap- 

 ital. But before quitting it. let me speak of but 

 one spot more which is the pride of Vienna — the 

 Prater, in the suburb Leopoldstadt. This is the 

 promenade of the aristocracy as well as of the peo- 

 ple. I don't know how I can better describe it, 

 than by comparing it to an immense outspread 

 fan, the alleys running north, east and south far 

 into the country and concentrating at the soealled 

 " PraUrstern" (star) nt the end of the Jugeneite 

 the most fashionable street of Vienna. The prin- 

 cipal alley is near a league in length, and is studded 

 with several places of refreshment. The several 

 alleys, of which there are five, are separated by 

 green meadows, groups of trees, aud in the more 

 remote portions by little woods frequented by wild 

 game. Here, then, I strolled about one Sunday af- 

 ternoon, at which time the valiioL* of the rich, und 

 the more natural vehicles (legs,) of the poorer 

 classes roamed about in vast numbers; though, 

 my companion told me, by no means to be cc 

 pared with what it formerly was, when the nuiii 

 ous railroads traversing in various directions, I 

 not as yet offered such cheap facilities for making 

 excursions into the country. Happening to bi 

 Vienna on the anniversary of tho birth-day of 

 present Emperor, I witnessed a grand pyrotechnic 

 display giveu to the public on one of the alieys of 

 this Prater, accompanied by music from oue of tht 

 numerous military bands of the capital. Speak- 

 ing of music, I cannot help remarking that tbf 

 military music of the Austrians is the most de< 

 tightful I ever heard — far surpassing that 



sof 



a of J 



and America, and the everlasting, deafening 

 screeching of parrots in the central pavilion. Here 

 lounge about nurses with innumerable children; 

 hero you may seo the comic peasant with staring 

 eyes, apprentices ond soldiers of all possible na- 

 tionalities — and such faces as they make! The 

 photographer might here make " a good catch" — 

 say in front of the monkey -cage — worthy of being 

 displayed in any picture-gallery. The elephant is 

 continually busy with devouring the neb cakesbe- 

 stowedby the gratified spectators. Natural history 

 is here enriched with sayings 

 which a Buffox, a Ccvimi, or on AtLUMI would 

 shudder, and which " philosophers certainly 

 dreamed of." Near the menagerie is the botanical 

 gardeu of European celebrity, with a great many 

 hot-beds concealing a luxuriant display of the 

 vegetable kingdom of all zones and climes. 

 To tbe left of the palace is another forest 

 with meandering paths and an artificial Roman 

 ruin; which is, however, so skill fully built, 

 many a stranger has been led to regard it as i 

 ruin of some Roman edifice. From this 

 which reminds us of Rome, the imagination U

 cording to this estimate, 1,1185,830,000 cubic feet of 

 mud is hourly transported to the sea by this river. 

 It seems quite incredible, but as the earthy matter 

 discharged by the Van gtese-Ki an g colors the waters 

 at its mouth, giving to them the name of the Yel- 

 low Sea, besides forming immense flats, thc amount 

 must be very large. The Yangtese-Kiang, how- 

 ever, bears no better comparison to the Amazon, 

 than, according to Lieut. Habersham, the Missis- 

 sippi does to the Chinese river. The Amazon, 

 which is the largest river in the world, is one 

 thousand seven hundred and sixty-nine miles in 

 length, in a direct line, or, including its windings, 

 nearly four thousand miles, while four hundred 

 miles from the Atlantic it is more than a mile 

 width, and bus a velocity of thrao and a half miles

 mated to afford lifty thousand miles of inland u;

THE THBEE GREAT BIVEBS, 



Lieut. Habersham, in writing to the Philadelphia 

 Ledger, says : 



"The Mississippi, opposite New Orleans, is not 

 quite six hundred yards wide, with a mean depth 

 of one hundred feet ; and a velocity or oue ond a 

 half miles per hour. Thus, u body of water one 

 and a half miles long, six hundred yards wide, and* 

 one hundred feet thick, is driven into the G 

 Mexico every hour. Alittlemorethau one hundred 

 miles from the mouth of Yongtese-Kinng, (thi 

 of the Sea, ) is located thecity of Kiang Yun. The 

 river here is one thousand nine hundred yards 

 wide, has an average depth of ninety-nine feet, and 

 a mean velocity of two miles per hour. Thus, we 

 have, he remarks, a body of water two miles long, 

 nineteen hundred yards wide, and ninety-nine feel 

 thick, hourly urged into the bosom of the Yellow 

 Sea. Compare this volume with the first, and il 

 wdl be found to be almost double. Were thi

, (i4tt 



-Vinton, in n late Rt i 

 >stance the following question: — 

 an study bis books while working 

 Now, there are two things to be 

 s question. 1st, Can one find the 

 ■equisite time? and 2d, Would not his daily labor 

 detract from the interest in his studies V I should 

 to come to the point at once, that there was at 

 . no regular time for study during summer on 

 farm— that being, I suppose, tbe season to 

 which Vinton refers, as he probably attends school 

 during the wi uter. Where one labors steadily from 

 tho sun's rise to it-, disappearance, it is evident thot 

 evenings would be tbe only opportunities obtaina- 

 ble for Ibis purpose ; but these in summer are quite 

 short, and furthermore, if I can be allowed to judge 

 of others by myself, one wants three of thesi 

 ings at least, out of each week, to devote 

 weekly visitors, the RrrtAL, Tiubunb, &c 

 good stock of general information is moi 

 present necessity, to tbe youth, than a knowledge 

 of the languages and sciences. This last asserti 

 however, might be a matter of opinion, and st 

 ambitious youth would raise the inquiry, Why 

 study and let the papers go? If one can forego 

 the pleasure of reading, why notsubsti 

 its stead? Because one is a recrea 

 other a labor; the one requires no el 

 lion while the other does ; and Nature would argue 

 strongly against the practice of studying evenings 

 after a steady day's work. She designed tbe night 

 as a period of sleep ond rest from labor, mental on 

 well as muscular, and an observance of this low 

 of Nature is rendered imperative in tbe case stated. 

 It cannot always be disobeyed with impunity, and 

 to persist in disregarding it would soon begii 

 tell on thc health ond wiiijht of the individual. 

 ise Vinton, therefore, not to study ev 

 g the seasons of the hardest labor 



calculating to beeome a lawyer or a minister, he is 



on the right track; hut he is to be a farmer— and 



one who intends to make that his calling, should 



pursue those studies which really are applicable to 



our profession — viz.. Agricultural Chemistry, Hot- 



,ny, Meteorology, Ac. This would do away with 



tho objection raised by Vinton, of tho impossibility 



doing two things til n time with profit; for in 



is case the two employments would in fact he but 



o branches of the one. From the books we learn
