Excerpt from January and June
Whoever has time to look and listen, need only go out of doors, to wonder and be charmed. On any quarter section in the world, may be seen and heard, the alphabet of almost all thought, and the utterances of almost all tongues. This is not a dis covery; oh, no! But only a wreath of vapor to the cloud hf witnesses that have already testified.

Excerpt from January and June
The World, now-a-days, live too much "in the house:" souls grow angular as the apartments they dwell in, and come, like them, to have parlors and pantries, closets and coal-holes; views take color from the windows they are seen through; muffled thoughts in listed slippers, walk on carpets, and the firm, free footfall upon the bare floors of this great caravansary, are not to be heard "by ears polite."
Sunlight, in-doors, is a nun and enters veiled; or it is a "grocery," poured from a tin can; or a chemical, conducted in an iron tube. The air, in-doors, must needs be beaten with fans, into a mockery of motion, and music, immured in rosewood and mahogany, is manumitted at intervals, by ivory fingers with ivory keys.
