OUR DEAD COMMERCE, [From a letter of George Ticknor Curtia.) Tn my daily passages between the city of New Yor and my country home at this season of the yearT as obliged to pass along the Kast River for a distance @ about two miles on a forry-boat. Lt is absolutely ap palling to contrast the present condition of owt wharves and docks with what it was when 1] begam, fourteen years ago, to make this passage before one of the noblest water-ronts im the world, New Yor’ had then a commerce which it made one’s beart swell to behold reat bulls, whose enormous bull betokened what they had brought or were to take uway, lay tier on tier along the shore. Forests of asts, smoke stacks, derricks, too thick for any ume practised eye to cuunt, almost bid the buidings be- hind thea from sight. The imcessant rattle of the culkers’ hammers made a music which any contem- plutive maa might for a moment preter to the orehes- tral harmonies of an opera pouse, Notwithstandiay that one feels like an insigniticant b the pres: enee of apy great manifestation of collecuve human power and activity, there ix aiways something exiilgre ating in such a’ scene. It is nearly all gone. 1! Her on (hese waters Low passes Whole stretches at whieh uo cralt whatever is lying.
