Sis: -- What has come over you that the muses find no favor with you. Have you had a quarrel with your pen? or why is it, we have heard nothing from you since you went to Yankee-land? We are naturally anxious to know how you are pleased with your surroundings and what seem your prospects. Does the world seem larger to you since your journey? We get better ideas of distance by traveling than it would be possible to do if we should spend our lives in one place. On one, it has also another effect -- my own littleness seems so infinite -- God's greatness, on the other hand, so infinitely beyond all my powers
