RIVER SIDE RAMBLES.
__________
"Fairest sight in creation are these Rivers, whether small in their childhood, and found far among the mountains; or in rich manhood, sweeping through the open plains; or joining the Ocean at last in slow and exhausted old age—lovely are they at all times! And of the hymn of thanksgiving, which Nature sends forth from her many-toned voice, mounting up to her Creator's throne, the burden is borne by the Rivers."
