Excerpt from A Discourse
We who have just come to this State, meet every day with the old settlers who are not yet old men; and we can hardly believe their stories of the wilderness - of log-huts, and stem toils, and the hunter's life - told amid scenes where cultivation reigns, and where Taste with rosy fingers has scattered so many embellishments.
