HOW WE WENT TO SWITZERLAND.-111.
From the Note-Book of our Travelling Corres
pondent.]
GOOD BYE TO rNILY.--FANaLLAR FACES
As we were about bidding adieu to the lovely
shores of Lake Maggiore, that Fairy Land of
Northern Italy, the hotel proprietor came to the
stage door and holding it open said, " Must leave
tree place for tree more by Baveno. Good bye
ladies and shentlemen ! I hope you shall come
next year and shtay longer mit me." This was
the first English speaking we had heard all day,
and was quite as refreshing as it was startling,
We replied pleasantly, feeling as sorry as he did
that we could not " shtay longer mit" him.
What was our surprise on arriving at the little
town of Baveno in fifteen or twenty minutes, to
see the familiar faces of three New York gentle
men who were to fill the three reserved places.
We had met them at Rome, and travelled in
company with them for a week most delightfully,
parting with them at Florence, they travelling at
night, and sight-seeing by day which we declined
to do. A most pleasant meeting was this, so to
tally unexpected by all parties. They had been
to Trieste and Vienna, had spent a day in Venice,
and had been to Milan just before us, going thence
north-east to Lake Como. Coming over westward
ly by Lake Lugano, and striking the eastern arm of
Lake Maggiore, they had been rowed all day by
two sturdy boatmen some thirty miles, and had
arrived at Baveno in time to take our stage and
cross the Alps with us next day.
One of them still carried with him a little pot
of ivy he had planted in the Baths of ,Caracalla
at Rome, to take home with him to New York.
This gave my wife the ivy fever, which •resulted
in our bringing more than a dozen slips home
with us in a bottle of water. We cut one from
every famous castle and church from Chillon in
Switzerland to the Tower of London, and Mel
rose, and Dryburgh abbeys in Scotland. Only
.one of them is now living, that plucked last, from
the tomb of Walter Scott at the last named
place.
One day the precious bottle was forgotten when
stopping to dine on' the Brunig pass over the
Alps. We telegraphed back for it next day, and
were pleased when the stage-driver brought it to us
that night, as though it had been a lost friend
we had found. The rain came on again, shutting
out the view as we travelled along the border of
the lake.
AN AVALANCHE
Presently we found the way completely cut off,
by half the mountain at the road-side having
rolled down from above. An avalanche some
weeks before had brought down rocks, trees, and
earth, heaping them in confusion across our path
and far out into the lake. A ferry-boat was in
waiting, which took us with little delay, stages,
horses and all, around the slide to the road again,
and we were soon again on the broad Simplon, a
fine, smooth turnpike, with its little granite posts on
each side every few yards of the way. The tele
graph poles here were made of stone. Slender
pieces of granite a dozen feet high, and about
twelve by eight inches square, supported the
wires quite substantially. We soon left the lake
and followed a pretty stream, the river Toce,
north-westwardly towards the Alps, which, were
hidden from view by clouds and the falling rain.
DOMO D'OSSOLA
It was ten o'clock at night when, in dripping
rain, weary and tired, we drove through an arched
gateway into the hotel yard at Dorno D'Ossola. As
the last stage entered, the gates closed behind us,,
and we were glad to follow a servant, with lighted
candles, from one room to another to our quarters
for the night. There appeared to be no passage
ways through the large building; but we were
shown through half a dozen adjoining sleeping
rooms before we got to our own. We wondered
whether they intended showing other lodgers
through our 'room after we were put away; but
found ours was the last room on the L. Soon a
party was shown to the room we had just passed
through, and in this manner they filled the house
up. How we were going to get out in the morning
bothered us a little as we were dropping to sleep;
but we were too weary to plan for our exit. Leaving
one of our candles burn all night, (for we must
pay a franc each for them whether we burn them or
not,) we woke next morning to find the rain all
gone and the sun trying hard to send its morning
greeting through our curtains. A look outside
showed a stone balcony running around the house,
and we soon found our way down the strong stone
stairway to the same yard which had received
us in the dark last evening.
AN ITALIAN COOKING RANGE
A survey showed the preparations making for
breakfast in a large room opening on the court
yard, on something that resembled a blacksmith
forge more than anything else. We had seen a
similar forge on the roadside at a station near
Rome, and remembered how we enjoyed a broiled
chicken just hot from its embers, and now we
awoke to the conclusion that our meals in Italy
had doubtless all come from similar forges. Any
thing more unlike our cooking-stoves and kitchen
ranges would be hard to imagine; but there sat
the copper coffee-pots and tea-kettles around the
fire, and there was the pan over the coals, and
THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY, MAY 20, 1869.
the gridiron with its savory steak. The forge
was built of brick about six feet square, and
,three high, with a large iron funnel ab.ve to carry
off the gteam and smoke.
BEAUTIFUL VALLEY.
The bracing atmosphere of the bright morning
invited us beyond the high walls of the hotel
yard to look about us. A valley of surpassing
loveliness spread areund the village. The morn
ing mists still lay upon it; but above and beyond,
closing in the view on three sides, grandly rose
the Alps. The nearer hills were low and covered
with verdure, beyond were barren and rocky sum
mits, and the extreme highest edge of the picture,
when the floating mists allowed it to be visible, show
ed the 'mountain tops covered with snow, glittering
like silver against the blue sky. Down the val
ley, the landscape lay bathed in the morning sun
light. As the gloomy mist broke away, beautiful
fields, and lovely vineyards, white cottages and
winding streams became visible, revealing one of
those enchanting panoramas that burst upon the
glad eyes of Napoleon's soldiers, when, after days
of freezing toil, they had dragged their heavy
cannon and baggage trains over the Alps, and
suddenly found themselves entering these lovely.
/ Italian plains. No wonder that the whole army
screamed and shouted with delight, thousands of
them lying'down and kissing the ground in their
enthusiasm. Poor fellows, many of them never
re-crossed the pass, but found their graves in
the land they saluted so gladly. Half a dozen
stages soon arrived from up the road, having
been all night crossing the pass. Half a dozen
more just then came up from Baveno, to cross
with us—making a commotion and bustle quite
out of keeping with the sleepy village.
Presently a home like looking gentleman came
up to me, saying, "Which is Mr. M., of Philadel
phia"?" " That's my'name, Sir," said I. "My
name is 8.," he replied; " I am a broker on
Third street. I saw your name on one of the
trunks, and thought we had better shake hands
in this out of the way place." A pleasant chat
we had, while the horses were being harnessed to
the stages, and then waved an adieu as we sepa
rated, he to go down the mountain, and -we up.
At nine o'clock our line of six stages wound out
of the town.
MARKET DAY
It was a market day. The country people
around had flocked in to attend the 'market.
Hardy, healthy-looking folks they are; the women
dressed with a heavy woolen• skirt of blue or
grey, peasant waist of red or black, large white
muslin sleeves, red handkerchief or scarf around
the head, stout shoes and thick ribbed'stockings.
The men wore short clothes to the knee ; thick
stockings and heavy shoes,' red vests, no coats,
and high pointed hats. They were offering for
sale little heaps of rye, beans, or a little garden
truck, all spread upon the ground. One had
shoes for sale, fifty pairs or more ; another dis
played a stock of dry goods, consisting chiefly
of bright red handkerchie&• Tlie goods were
spread upon the ground, so close to the road that
I feared the wheels of the stages would crush
some of them. The people seemed to be a pa
tient set, quiet, moody in their way—no crowd
ing, or activity, or loud talking, or hurrying
hither and thither. To stare mutely at us in the
stages, was evidently the businesS of the moment
as we passed.
We were soon out of the town, the road fol
lowing a stream leading us right into the moun
tains. The Doveria is its name, a rapid torrent,
which was to be our companion all day.
AMONG THE ALPS
The mountains sometimes rose boldly from
the valley we were following, then smiling valleys
stretched backward and sloped rapidly up. Farm
houses, built of stone, were seen in these little
vallies. The lower story was a stable and barn.
By a flight of stone steps outside, one reached to
the second floor, which is the dwelling part of
the house. The white plastered walls and red tile
roof make a pretty picture. On a bold pro
montory, fifteen hundred feet above the road, we
see a white church, with its square built tower—
s beautiful picture, but who can attend the
church ? Will the people climb to that dizzy
height to worship ? Little patches of cultivation
higher up and beyond, with their rough stone or
wooden cottages, tell, that while some ascend to
the church, these hardy mountaineers will come
down their steep paths to worship. We could
hardly believe it possible, that people could live
so far above where we were. Some of these little
farms lay nestled far up the mountain side among
the crags, in such a way that we could not per
ceive how the people ever got to them. Beyond
and half encircling them, rose the steep cliffs,
and in front of them sometimes a bold, rocky
wall, almost perpendicular, stretches down for a
1,000 or 1,500 feet to the stream at the bottom
of the valley. No horse nor cow could ever get
up that steep—and how did they farm and live
up there without horses l / 4 or cows, we wondered.
How did they keep their children from tumbling
headlong down those crags ? At times we could
trace zig zag paths leading up over the face of
the rock, hidden now and then by bushes and
underbrush, but we discovered no other road
than that perilous path. A man, or a woman, or
a goat, could toil up it, we thought, if they would
take half a day for it, but not otherwise. How
could they transport their farm 'products and
their groceries up and down this steep face of
rock ? The query is answered when we notice
every man and woman we meet, carrying the
large baskets strapped to their backs, holding a
bushel more, under the weight of which they
bend forward as they walk, assisting their steps
by a stout staff, which helps them in picking their
perilous ways.
How long would our working classes, especial
ly the women, submit to such an incumbrance ?
We have crossed the line and are now in
Switzerland. A stone pillar at the road side shows
where Italy ends, and where the land of moun
tains and torrents, of glaciers and waterfalls, the
land of Liberty and energy, and thrift and labor
begins. G. W. M.
REV. OOTLVIUS FITCH.
Action of the Presbytery of Welisboro'.
The Committee appointed to prepare a min
ute in relation to the death of brother Fitch re
ported through the. Reverend Joel Jewell ; their
report was accepted and adopted, and is as fol
lows
Forasmuch as it hath pleased the Great Head
of the Church, on the 24th of February last, to
call home, from the ministerial labors of forty
.years, our esteemed brother, the Reverend Gets
vius Fitch, at the age of 67 ; therefore, Resolved,
1.. That while this feeble Presbytery would bow
submissively to the chastening rod, which follows
in fourteen months the severe stroke which re
moved from our midst the sainted McCullogh,
we recognize the Chief Shepherd as solemnly de
manding of those that remain, increased dili
gence in gathering and feeding " the flock of
God, which He hath purchased with His own
blood."
Resolved, 2. That we gratefully acknowledge
the goodnessof God in bestowing upon the Church
of Christ a laborer of strong faith, fervent prayer,
burning zeal, and untiring energy, accompanied
with "great great plainness of speech ;" one willing to
enter the most unpromising fields, supply feeble
churches, receive small remuneration here, that
he might gather shedves for the glorious harvest
home; one that was set for the defense of the
Gospel ;" to maintain the cause of Temperance
and civil liberty; to "rejoice in tribulation," and
to " endure hardness as a good. soldier of Jesus
Christ." i.
Resolved, 3. That we sympathize with, and
entreat the divine beinediction upon "the widow
in her affliction," asiwell as upon the sheep and
lambs in the wilderness, with none to gather
them into the fold of Christ.
"BLAOKWOOD " ND THE LEWD OPERA.
Were Blackwood he official Organ of the
British Government or the exponent of the
English people, which it is not, that were no
reason for its being adopted as a guide in morals
for us Americans. -
We say this because a portion of its late ar
ticle on ballet dancing, is t-erved out to us in
one of our city dailies, we suppose, in extenu
ation of that favorite pastime of opera goers
here. Its arguments are .not new though spe
cious. For instance, "To the pure, all things
are pure." This is literally true of the moon
beams that take no taint from whatever they
glance on. But, query, who among us are
the pure, in such a sense as this, if we except,
favorably to themselves, the inveterate opera
goers and their semi-nude entertainers at the
play-house ?
But we cannot with truth or propriety accord
to them alone, possession of the highest virtues
under heaVen. We must be permitted to claim
something for the simple and generally pure
lives of the Puritans, whom this writer, as is
common with his class, ranks with " stern moral
ists and. prudes." We must be forgiven, also,
for assuming instinctively, that the purest in
heart among us, desire to, be kept so, and there
fore pray not to be led into temptation. And we
regret his quoting, not by any means the most
expressive of Addison's denunciations of the
stage-indecencies of his time. Had he done so,
we should all have seen that Addison honestly
despised them.
To the beauty, as the writer considers
it, of some of these displays, we would
take exception. Beauty is matter of taste and
with ever varying standards, according to culture,
temperament, organization and circumstance, in
the beholders. But if we admit in favor of our
opponents; that the human form about one-third
or less draped, is a beautiful sight, we yet insist,
in common parlance, that we are in danger and
soon, of getting too much of this good and beau
tiful•thing, by ballet corps wholly unincumbered
by any robing at all. It has not infrequently
attained to this, in the model city, in Paris. Still
the beauty and entertainment here, are not in
point, it is the indecency, the immorality of it,
that is in question.
That man is little acquainted with the world,
who, reasoning, with whatever sophistry he may,
cannot and does not mentally admit, that the per
formances at the opera of to-day are among the
most advanced stepping-stones to the slough of
libertinism, for scores of our youth of both
sexes, yearly. And where a smattering know
ledge of the French language is possessed by the
auditory, the work of demoralization is consider
ably more rapid.
The precise 'modus operandi by which men and
women are made immoral, is of less importance
altogether, than the fact itself, of their becoming
Ji F. C., Stated Clerk
demoralized. Yet we will take our writer's own
line of stating his case. He says of the ballet,
"it cannot be indecent or immoral in itself (1)
and is only made so by the extraneous associa
tion of words and thoughts, that come_ out of the
mind of the observer, and not out of the things
observed." We repeat, in substance, if our
youth are vitiated by any spectacle presented to
them, be the process what it may, that is sufficient
reason for them to condemn and avoid it. If the
ballet can be made indecent and immoral by
words and thoughts coming from the observer of
it, it must be in itself suggestive of these words
and thoughts. No sane man doubts this. Again,
" Evil to him who evil thinks." But—what, to
him and those, who elaborately, and persistently,
contrive enticing and vicious modes for suggest
ing evil thoughts? And what, to those, who, by
ingenious sophistry, seek to recommend and
uphold them ?
There is yet another item for consideration,
however, that is ever ignored by the defenders of
this immorality , viz.: the sacrifice by hecatombs
all over Europe, of the actresses in these pagan
orgies, copied from the heathen saturnalia:
The chariest maid, says Shakspeare, is prodi
gal enough, if she unmask her beauties to the
moon. What may be predicated then of the pro
digality in this respect of hundredi of those, who
make a business of it, to the gaze of thousands
of the satellites of a more baleful planet than the
moon ? We answer, ruin by wholesale, and noth
ing but ruin.
To conclude, a rent in a gentleman's coat, said_
Webster, speaking figuratively of character, may
be the accident of an hour, but a patch is delib
erate poverty. And so of a h,tzsty opinion utter
ed under excitement, even in favor of an evil like
that under consideration, it may in some circum
stances, perhaps, be palliated. But the cool
patching up of an argument put forth coolly and
thoughtfully, in defence of indecencies and im
moralities like these, and an advocacy for their
support, in our land, is a deliberate' crime against
virtue, morality, and patriotism. E. D. M.
THE WORK AMONG THE FREEDMAN,
The work of the, New School Church among
the Freedmen is making satisfactory progress.
At this date, ninety-five teachers and ten minis
ters are in commission, and actually laboring •at
the South. They are to be found in Maryland,
Virginia, North and South Carolina, Tennessee
and Alabama.
A noticeable feature of this new denomina
tional enterprise is the truly Christian spirit
evinced, by those thus sent forth to labor, where
so little sympathy is manifested by the whites,
either with them or for their work.
Thus far, letters from ministers and teachers,
dwell chiefly upon their labors and success with
tho Freedmen; avoiding political topics, and al
luding only in- terms of regret to any , ppirit of
opposition with which they have to contend..
Now and then the manifestation of this spirit, of
charity and forgiveness is such as to excite pecu-.
liar admiration.
On the seventh of March last, the Freedmen's
school-house at Clinton, East Tennessee, was
burned. A letter of the same date, from the
teacher at that station, Miss . S. L. Daffin, (a grad
uate of the Phila. Institute
.for Colored Youth)
says
"It was a sad spectacle to behold the little
ones, who had come to Sunday-school, gathered
around the spot where we have loved, to meet ;
and to see the tears streaming down their cheeks;
disappointed, yes, sorely disappointed, at finding
no house.
" The officers of the . Baptist church (white)
tendered to us the use of their building until
ours shall be rebuilt. The colored people held
service this morning in the above named church,
and then and there prayed earnestly for the soul
of him who bad thus tried to injure them. , Could
there be a more practical illustration of Christ's
command, ' Pray for them , that despitefully use
you and persecute you.'
" The colored minister exhorted the people
not to entertain the slightest feeling of vindic
tiveness towards any man, but to view the Secret
Hand in these seemingly unfortunate circumstan-
On the 20th of the same month, this teacher
writes again
" In reply to your query, ' how soon the house
will be rebuilt?' lam unable at present to say. It
is the intention of those in whose hands the mat
ter has been planed, to have it done as soon as
practicable. On the 9th instant the white citi
zens, irrespective of party, held a meeting to ex
press the sentiments of the community in relation
to the destruction of the colored school-house.
" The speeches made upon the occasion were
highly sympathetic ; indeed, practically so; for
$175 were contributed towards the new building,
besides offers of assistance in doing the work, and
teams for hauling. All the speeches denounced
the act of the incendiary as ' cowardly,' and ex
pressed the belief that the whites should build
the house entirely."
April 4th she' again writes : " Our new house
will be completed, we hope, in about three weeks.
The white friends and foes have clone nobly, by
contributing liberally towards it. The day-school
has diminished, this being the corn planting sea
son, when many of our people are compelled to
work in the fields. The interest is, however, I
think unabated.
" Although many of our older scholars are
deprived of the privilege of attending the Fri
day evening prayer meeting, yet those who do at
tend, evince the same fervent spirit as of yore, and
frequently, when assembled around the mercy
seat, the Spirit of God hovers around us, and
causes us to experience that sweet calm,
' Which none but he who feels it knows.' "
TEMPERANCE ITEMS.
—A New York paper announces that Judge
Dowling's recent remark that he would rather
see " one adulterator of milk punished than
fifty liquor dealers," was suggested by observation
of the deterioration caused by the former class
in the quality of milk punch.
—The Liberal Christian., (Unitarian) recently
announced a discovery, which we are sure says
an Exchange, our readers will appreciate. Here
it is :
Revivals do some good after all
The fact which wrought this conviction in
the mind of the editor is very much to the pur
pose, and his ready perception of its bearings
shows that he is open to conviction, as one who
professes to be liberal should be; but is it pos
sible that he never before encountered a fact
like this ?
" A man in Westfield, after attending a series
of revivalist meetings, placed a notice on the
door of his shop, to the following effect, 'No
rum sold on these premises after this date.
Westfield ; April 2,1869.'"
• —Tom SAYERS was a famous boxer, you
know. '" Well Tom," said a gentleman one day,
"when ; you ate training, I suppose you use plenty
off' beefsteak, London porter, and pale ale." " No,
no '
" answered the boxer, " when I have business
to do, there is nothing like cold water and the
dumb-bells"
After ,giving up " business" Tom took to
drink, and died a sot. Cold water made him
a Samson. ' Alcohol laid him in his grave.
Health, - strength, and long life do not come
from strong drink; be sure of that, boys. '
—ln the ninth annual report of the Bedford
street (Phila.) Mission for 1862, it is stated that
within a circuit , of two squares from the Mission,
130 rum shops are in active operation. By a
Census taken by the Missionary in the month of
February, of this year, within four squares of
the Mission there are only seventy rum shops.
This will agreeably surprise the friends of the
Mission. While liquor shops are increasing in
the respectable parts of the city, they are de
creasing very much in' Bedford and Spafford
streets. It is but justice to the inhabitants of
Baker street to say that that street is compara
tively reformed and should not be classed with
Bedford street.
