THE PROFESSOR ON THE GREAT CITLES. The Neng é writer of the “Professor at the Breukfast Table,” in the April number of the Atlantic Monthly, expresses his mind freely on several of our great cities. Boston comes first, of course, and thus: BOSTON. “Boston is the brain of it, (i. ¢., the New World.) and has been any time these hundred years! That’s all I claim forBoston,—that itis the thinking centre of the continent, and there- fore of the planet. And the grand emporium of modesty — said thedivinity-cudent, aittle mickionoay Oh, don’t talk tome of modesty '—answered Little Bosion,—C'm past that!—There isn't a thing that was ever said or done in Boston, from pitehing the tea overboard to the last ecclesi- astical lie it tore into tatters and flung into the dock. that wasn’t thought very indelicate hy some fool or tyrant or bigot, andall the entrails of commercial and spiritual conservatism aro twisted into colics as often as this revolutioaary hrain of ours has a fit of thinking come over it. -—show me any other place that is or nee the m osaurus has died out, where wealth and social influence are 80 fairly divi- ‘led between the stationary and the progressive classes’ Show me any other place where every other drawing-room is not a chamber of the [n- quisitions, with papas and mammas for inguisi- tors.—and the cold shoulder, instead the “dry pan and the gradual fire’ the punishment of ‘heresy !** BALTIMORE. ~—— We think Baltimore isa pretty civilized kind of a village, said the young Marylander. good nataredly. But I suppose you can’t f. give it for always keeping a little ahead of Be ton in point of numbers, tell the truth now Are we not the centre of something ?”’ “Ah. indeed. to be sure you are. You are the gastronomic metropolis of the Union. Why don t you put a canvasss back duck on the top ef the Washington column? Why don’t you get that lady off from Battle Monument and plant a terrapin in her place? Why will you , ask for other glories when you haye soft crabs? No, sir, you live too well to think as hard as we do in Boston. Logie comes to us with the salt fish of Cape Ann: rhetoric is born of the beans of Beverly: but you if you open your mouths to speak. nature stops them with a fat oyster. or o a slice of the breast of your divine bird, and silences all your aspirations.’ PRILADELPRIA «And what of Philadelphia ?* lander. ‘Ob Philadelphia ” Waterworks. killed by the Croton and Cochituate; Ben Franklin, bor- rowed from Boston; David Rittenhouse. made an orrery; Benjamin Kush, made a medical sys- tem. both interesting to antiquarians; great Red river raft of medical students, spontaneous gen- eration of professors to mateh; more widely known through the Moyamensing hose com- pany and the Wistar parties; for geological sec- tion of social strata, go to the elub.
