SUMMER PAST-TIME.
ISV CUK-VTIfS CIIOCWS.
M hat a thousand ways are there to kill
time in the summer. Thanks to the inven
tion ol steamboats and the North river, wo
have only to jump on board the former and to
sail uj the latter, land atone of the beautiful
villages on its margin— at West Point, at
Hyde Park, or CV.Aiil —and we have thechoi
cest opportunity in the woild to kill time; —
to kill it not by one fell swoop, one murder
ous blow of the sword or tomahawk, but by a
gentle lotting of the blood, as if sucked from
the Veins by sleeping infants, by stingless
asps, or by the latest patent cupping machine.
Suppose, reader, as the thermometer is at
ninety, and I know you have not had a breath
of fresh air these two months,—at least 1
have not, except what I stole at Hoboken the
other Sunday; and you, I know, do not in
dulge in such larcenies on Sunday—suppose
wo step on board one of these same firc-and
water boats and steam it awhile up the river?
Come, take a dicky with you, and Harpers’
last novel, if you are of one sex ; if of the
other, provide yourself with a fresh set of
elastic curls, and a few other et cetera?, to
make your toilet withal, and I dare say we
shall get along very comfortably. I hate your
packing up of trunks, band-boxes and port
manteaus, when you are only to make a short
excursion, or are merely going a pleasuring.
It is a real damper upon pleasure—-upon com
fort—upon social feeling—upon body and
mind, these same accompaniments of a man’s
travels—they are hindrances and impedi
ments to his movements, worse than the bag
gage to an army—so, sweet reader, leave your
band-boxes at home, and wo shall get along
all tlie better without them.
Here is a boat load of [tropic—men. wo
men, and children—dogs parols and monkeys
—till going a pleasuring, just as we are.—
Never mind, we must pay for plcasnrc—not
i in dollars and cents merely—we must suffer
• for fas (lion, for bis till the fashion to take a
I steam-boat excursion on the Hudson —it
i would he quite gothic to remain in file city
! ail summer —by the bye, what a frequent
I use of the epithet dorir , our friend Paulding
I makes in his last novel —but never mind—
!it is too hot to stop talking l>y the fireside,
l or about it—so let me hand you on board,
i Mi.*,, —he careful how you stop —1 would
: not for the worl i have yon fall—there would
j be little of the romantic in tumbling into this
dirty dock-water —-at least, Mi?s,
should not caretii plunge in after you in my
nankeens. Ahem! there, there, you are
i safe on board now —take my arm and we
will ( Show oar way to tiro promenade deck.
“Why, I declare now, what a jain! more
excessive if possible than at Madame Pan
chcuie’s grand fancy ball Inst winter—and,
pah ! (with a tons of the head.) the company
is so mixed !”
Yes, Miss, the company, as you observe, i?
mixed. The truth is, there is no such non
j descript in our waters as a good society
I steam-boat —the thing wouldn’t go down at
j all—we arc too republican for that.
“Fo I perceive, sir.'’
And, by the bye, these same steam-boats
are as great Lvclh rs of distinction as even
church-yards. litre your man-mountain
j sinks down into quite a passable hi il, and
your woman-mountain is suffered to take no
J airs to herself without exciting ridicule.
“You mean to hint, then, dear sir, that I
must mind my P’s and Q’s, and not [day the
cxquisitcssc. Well, I will try, but really, it
is so provoking to meet one’s milliner or
head-dresser. Ton honor, (raising her
glass.) if there is not mademoiselle Piro
quette, the little French woman who dresses
heads—-just see what aifs she is taking to her- j
self, and yet I—poor I—must stand as mo
tionless as a statue, anil not [day the amiable :
at all.”
Exactly so. You, Mis?, arc a lady of too 1
good sense, I trust, to expose yourself to the
rude stare of strangers —you suould not—l j
know you would not —be ambitious ot exci* j
ting observation in a crowd. Fomc ladies:
hold a different opinion, and seem to take j
marvellous delight in attracting atti ntion, and
to do this they play off tricks more ludicrous
than those of a monkey.
“Scandal —scandal—I will listen no longer
to such perverse sentiments- Pray spare j
your wit, or exercise it in some more prolita- i
Lie —not to sav agreeable—manner. ’
Well, Miss," l will endeavor to please you
—but 1.1 me entreat you to keep cool.—
Surely this line breeze, ns we cut through
the water, is enough to keep any one cool
—even a salamander. For my part, I know
of no pleasure-saving that ot your sweet
company—halfsso soothing, so refreshing, so
entrancing,as to fet.-l the cool breath ot hea
ven kissing your forehead. Allow me to re
move your hat, Miss, arid I will repeat you
some lines from the Spanish, appropos to the
subject.
Blow light, thou balmy air,
My lady’s ceuclt above,
Blow lightly there, ye winds, and spare
The slumbers of my love.
Let no rude blast he found
To mar her gentle sleep ;
But all around, a dreamy sound
Ami drowsy murmur keep.
() fly thou balmy air,
AnJ by her couch remain ;
Go blend thee . ith her breath, and hear
If* balm to me acrid",
But lightly go, and gently bow—
Blow softly as iny strain.
Blow gently, do not break
The stillness of her sleep;
1 would not make my lovo awake,
Nor raise those lids to weep.
Ye winds that bora in happier hour,
May wanton as you will,
If round her bower ye have the power
To creep and murmur still,
O lightly go, and gently blow,
And let her slumber still,
“Beautiful—:no.-t beautiful—and while I
think of if, you must promise me to inscribe
these lines in my album.”
Excuse me, Miss, 1 never write m albums.
1 once wrote in one, and the lady took all the
pretty tilings I said in it—not but what 1
think you would be entitled to them—to her
self.
“Pray, what was the subject of your effu
sion, that it should produce so singular ef
fect ?”
Oh, it w as all about love, Miss—you know
one is expected to say something about that
—and blue eyes, and killing smiles, and all
that sort of thing—l had a narrow escape of
it. Dangerous business—quite dangerous,
to write in young ladies’ albums!
“But 1 promise, sir, there is no man-trap
set in my album, if you are under arty appre
hension of being caught.”
Well, I will think of it. But lam not
quite sure that you Would not prefer some
thing original—suppose I should indite a
sonnet to that Albany sloop, or sturgeon, or
Saint Anthony’s nose?
“You may spare your muse, sir, till wc
get among the Highlands. Then 1 shall ex-
poet you to woo her in such witching strains
as to call down the Nyades and Dryades
from the mountain tops.”
In plain English, to frighten all the owls
and crows that are roosting there. To con
fess the truth, Miss, I have no taste for such
mischief-making; besides, there is no mu
sic in my soul, or at least it. never pops off in
songs or sonnets —serenades or semiquavers.
“Indeed!”
Aye, indeed. If you have doubts on the
subject I will tip you a stave of an old col
lege song—l had to learn one—-ami when
knocked down fora song, always sung this.
“I take your word for it, sir—but see, wc
are now passing some delightful scenery—
the palis ides you have missed entirely.”
True, true —1 was looking all the while at
your own beautiful face—there are more
beauties of nature besides the palisades.—
That little village embosomed in yon dingle
is really very pretty. How beautiful the tail
elms lift up their heads over the white cot
tages. They remind me of a white beaver
decorated with green nodding plumes, or a
loaf of frosted cake planted with box.
“You are growing poetical, sir, with a ven
geance. But turn to the opposite shore, to
the golden west where the sun is sinking to
j ** v'v u iivio imv ouu io lv/
this repose. What painter can catch those
! varying hues, which he, the master painter of
| nature throws upon yon clouds? There is
'noart, no study, no laboured design iu his
; works—all is simple, ami graceful, and
beautiful, llow rich ami how glowing is
the coloring he imparts! Now yon clouds
hang like a rich crimson curtain, fold upon
fold—now they take the form of a landscape,
with light and shade spread over its face—
now the scene changes, and a pile of ruins
rises to view—tall arches, broken columns,
and ivy-crowned walls and now-—“eyes look
your last”—now his disk reaches the hori
zon —now, ho is half gone—and now good
night, sun, good night, good night!”
I see, Miss-, you arc an admirer of nature;
f, too, have in boyhood diveit amid scenes as
beautiful and sonl-inspiiing as these; and
then—ah, happy then!—l could offer up my
adorations at nature’s shrine with feelings
keenly alive to its beauties. Often, when
harrasseil w ith the perplexities and turmoil of
a city life, often do I think over those true
and touch*rng lines by an old poet:
Oli! what is the gain of restless cere,
Ana what is ambition’s treasure,
And what art) the joys Iho moodish share
In the ir haunts of sick y pleasure.
The shade with its silence —old is it not sweet,
And to he in the sun by the fountain,
And the wild flowers scent at eve to meet,
And to rove on the heath and the mountain, j
Oh ’. where is the morning recti to ri.-e.
The violet marked as ’tis springing,
The Z< jdir heard ; s t eve it sigh ,
The black-bird loved for its singing ;
Oh! there alone can the heart he gay,
The thought he free from sorrow,
Ami short the night and short the day,
Aud welcome again the morrow.
“And whose sweet poetry, sir, may this
be! HuHcckV, Bryant’s or Willis’s !”
Neither—it is an old Morccau, by one of
the old English poets: Smith i think, is bis
name ; and such strains as Ins might well be
placed at the side of old Izaak Walton’s
prose.
“I have heard there is poetry in prose, and
of the sweetest description. Fray, sir, can
vou not quote a sentence from the venerable
anglt r!”
I have only one ot present in my recol
lection, uml that is suggest) and |>y yonder
clump of lorest trees. Old Rank, while walk
ing outwitii bis companion, and conversing
oil w hatev) r subject presented itself, us we
are now conversing, thus speaks; “Look! un
der that broad bunch tree i sat down when 1
•vs* la ■ this wav a fishing, and the birds in
tlie adjoining grove seemed to have a friend
ly contention, with on echo, whose dead voire
seemed to live in a hollow tree near to the
brow of that primrose hill.” But hark, tho
supper bell sounds—shall I accomoanv von
back to the cabin?
“Don’t name ii—don’t name it—the cab.
in is a perfect vapour-bath; we will remain on
deck—we will feed on air and sip the dew
the shades of evening are gathered aronni
us—the stars glimmer thickly in the skies,
and the fire-fly is twinkling through tho fob
age—can any thing be half so beautiful as
the blight gems whjcli seem to be falling a
mong the trees?”
Miss, I think this shower of sparks
that is tailing jar over our heads—first rising
ike a stream of fire, and then descending in a.
hroad halo ot glory, and illuming the waters
a5! ** ' 1 think this is a sight imhonored
and unsung, only from its being an evtrv da /
occurrence.
“1 never could endure the sparks, sir, since
<>ne 1. II upon my new dress—.accidents like
these detract wonderfully from my ulcus ti
the beautiful, lint isthstnqt the light at. -
, e , st P°> nt ■ it so, I must prepare for disem
barking.”
Well, Miss, ns you brought no band-box
with you, it will rod but httle trouble. In
ih-i mean time, while you arc making your
toilet, I will walk on the forward deck and
take asegar.
“Well, how uneasy I am seated between
