THE ELEMENT OF GRANDEUR, WANTING.

It has been said, and the truth may be

frankly admitted, that the elements of

grandeur and majesty are mainly wanting in the natural features of Prince Edward Island. A Byron, sighing for “the crags that are wild and majestic," would find our scenery subject to the Same Censure

that he bestowed on that of England. Our

beauties are "tame and domestic " to Such tastes as his. Akenside has told US tha-U “one admires the vast alone, the wonder-

ful, the wild; another sighs for harmony and peace and gentlest beauty." The latter class is, we think by far the l¢\I`8f*l`- Shakespeare might delight to look abroad from some high crirr while rignenings fired

the M-gh of Heaven, while thunders rocked the ground and ocean billows rose to mountain heights, but there are few Shakespeares or Byrons in thishard work- ing and rather commonplace world.

It is the world`s restless spirits that de-

light most in the sublimities of cloud- capped mountains, bold clii1`s, the thun- der storm and the hurricane. We recall once when a steamer load of pleasure 'seekers sailed up the Sa8’\19UaY and the boat stopped for a few minutes close be- neath the over-hangillkcliff Of 039° Et°"“‘ ny, rising nearly 2.000 feetperr>sr1di°\11MlY aboveand seeming to touch the sky.There was a sense of oppression followed by a tired feeling, as a result of |r11Zil18s 0” this sombre and silent Zl`1md°“1`° Nnure had here rent a mountain chain asunder, and we felt our minds wrought “D W high tension in looking upon the W01‘k :Of SW' pendous force. It was not restful- The old prophet who stood H9011 H°1`°b while the hurricane bowled above, While the earthquake shook it, and fire SW¢Dt over and enveloped it, cowered in his cave

till the perturbed elements were at rest and went uot forth till, in the succeed-

ing calm he heard the “sti1l, small voice" which was to the him the voice'of God. So nature when she would give us rest and recuperation speaks to the ear in the whispering breeze, or the music of' rippl- ing waters, or song of birdsi to the eye in the sweet mystery of dawn or evening

twilight,of bloom and verdure,of soft fleet-

ing shadows from fleecyclouds high in the blue, or the glancing moonbeams upon

the margin of some flowery stream to spreaj his careless limbs," amid such scenes as ours.

Nature in her gentlest moods formed

this Island as a place of rest. Our scenery is of the-gentle and soothing sort. Our health giving air and cool nights, the quiet that pervades all things, enables

when they come hither. In the great cities of _the outer world, amid the rush and" roar of traffic the hurry and bustle of ac- tivity the entire mental atmosphere, if one may coin a phrase, is infected with restlessness. Here it is-not so.

The mental atmosphere is serene and

calm. “Nobody is in a hurry in Prince Edward Island,” said a tourist to the writer. Another remarked with gentle

sarcasm-“If time is money, everyxone here must be u millionaire." But :aliour visitors agree that the Island is beautiful

in aquiet way and serenely restful. Hither came Sir.)`ohn Macdonald thirty years ago,

utterly broken down, worn out with t-he wearing strife of politics and seemingly dying. A few months repose onj this restful Island restored: his powers and twenty brilliant years were added to his life.

Letother lands boast of their majestic

r scenery, and let those who delight i`n_su_ch

_ scenes go thither. VVe envy them »_not » their exceptional attractions. In our Emerald Isle there are a pastoral beauty, - a healthfnlness and restfulness that are

not readily found elsewhere and exist no- . where in larger measure. Those of the
