Excerpt from The Old World in Its New Face, Vol. 1: Impressions of Europe in 1867-1868 Nine days total abstinence from the pen is such an excep tion in my paper-scratching existence, that nothing but severe illness on land, or that perpetual Sickness called the sea, could account for it. Yet this is the first drop of ink I have Shed since the 18th inst, When, at just 3 rm, I heard the Ship-gun bid our adieus to friends and term firmn, and walked down into the low dining-saloon Of this capital steamship to look at the lovely basket of flowers, arrayed in their own beauty and innocency - chiefly White buds - Which my Sun day-school children had sent to speak their fragrant and dewy good-bye to their minister. Nothing to do. That is the miracle that astonishes me, as I Walk up and down the deck and peer into the various cubby - holes Of this little world. Ville de Paris Yes It is Paris in miniature already here French out of every mouth, French hours, French dishes, French garcons, French taste, furniture, decorations, every thing except a French bottom and engine, Which happily are Scotch, from the Clyde. Our travels. In foreign countries are begun from the start. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
