Excerpt from We of Italy And to all these voices was Italy indifferent? Had the cries of pain not reached her? Ah, no, she had felt them all in her heart of hearts, and how was her peace troubled by them! When the hosts of the northern barbarians invaded the quiet and took away the liberty and joy Of peaceful, beautiful, brave little Belgium, laying waste her cities, - and the smiling villages and fields of fair France, - when the heroes of English blood (old friends and true of Italy) came to the rescue and threw themselves into the strife, giving their lives and all to protect and avenge the suffering and to drive back the arrogant cruelty and wickedness arrayed against civilisation and humanity, - when the might of Russia was aroused to defend and support the people Of their own blood, - could Italy stand by, then, and not Offer to strike a blow in such noble conflict?

Excerpt from Something of Italy The present volume is only what it purports to be, Something, not much, about italy - just those glances at the country, its people, and usages which were casually obtained during a three months' excursion in the spring and summer of 1862, along with such observations as are suggested by the hopeful progress of those portions of the Italian peninsula lately nationalised, as well as by the dismal backwardness of those other parts - Rome and Venetia - still under an antiquated and relentless thraldom. The illustrations are chie y from photographs, in the prepara tion of which the Italians sustain their reputation for artistic excellence. It has to be added, that the substance of the volume appeared as detached papers in the Journal with which the.

Excerpt from The Cart of Many Colors a Story of Italy Signs over the little shops would be written in Italian words; and all the babies would have dark Italian eyes and Shy Italian smiles; and all the people in the street would talk and laugh and sing in Italian; and out of all the doorways would come the smell of Italian cooking. And sometimes, at night, the whole street would be decked and garlanded with little electric lights, red and white and green, to celebrate the birth day Of the Italian saint who used to be the guardian spirit of the old Village in Italy, and who of course had emigrated with his villagers when they came to the new world. The Italians are not the only people who get together in groups and colonies in Our Amer ican cities. The Poles, the Russian Jews, the Germans, the Chinese, all the lonely new immi grants do it. They feel strange and far away from their own lands in this new country, and they want to live next door to some one who understands their language and their Old life. But thoughtful Americans are beginning to see that these little patches of Poland, Germany, Italy, are almost as far from America as if they were still on the other Side of the ocean. Daily messages, by cable and wireless, flash between Italy and America, but between Little Italy and Riverside Drive, in New York, there is no wire less; Mars and the Earth are not more far apart in some ways. It is to help Old Ameri cans and new Americans to get together and understand each other that little books like this one are written, - old Americans whose grand parents were born here, and new Americans whose children will be born here.

Excerpt from A Song of Italy We have but re-echoed the judgment of all competent critics, in saying that Swinburne rightfully ranks with the few great poets of this and Of other ages. His present work is one oi the finest artistic efforts which we have ever chanced to encounter. It has more human interest than his 'atalanta in Calydon, ' while it is couched in the same vigorous and splendid diction and 'is richly dight' with melodious and sweetly magnificent songs. His portraiture is one of the amplest, most thoroughly elaborated, and most gorgeously coloured, in the whole wide range of British poetry - Nsw Yoxx weekly review, December 9th, 1865.

Excerpt from Letters From Italy The accompanying Letters were not originally written with the intention of being published in a book, and very probably would have been worse written if they had been. In passing through Italy, one is constantly subjected to sudden and great transitions of feeling. The classic land and the home of the Caesars, have so long been a portion of the scholar's dreams, and so brightly colored with his own feelings, that the very matter-of-fact objects that stare him in the face, when he is expecting some hallowed monument of the past, will of ten quite upset his gravity, and compel him to laugh, where he thought to have been serious and reflective. It has been my effort in these Letters to give a faithful transcript of my feelings, in all these sudden transitions. To some there may often appear too much lightness and frivolity. For ourselves, we like to have a man give himself in his travels - we wish to hear him soliloquizing - and we read his book not to learn that he can be, or is, a very serious and profound man, but to know, how things struck him - that is, travel with. Him. Amid the new and exciting scenes that constantly meet trav ellers, in perhaps a hurried passage over a country, they can not, and do not, have the views and feelings so often given, for appearance' sake, as their honest ones. Our purpose has been to let others, if possible, look through our eyes; and whether we have succeeded or not, or whether they would have obtained a very interesting view if they did, we leave the reader to judge. Descriptions of galleries of art, paintings, etc. Have been avoided, as possessing interest to those only who have travelled over the same ground, and become familiar with the details necessary to make those descriptions clear. We have attempted, also, to give some idea of the condition of the inhabitants, especially of the lower classes, as they are topics seldom referred to in passing over the most classic land on the globe.

Excerpt from Letters From France and Italy The establishment and continuance of peace between Great Britain and the Continental nations, has opened an intercourse so free between their respective people, that the customs and curiosities of France and Italy are almost as familiar to our minds, as the customs and curiosities of our native land. Thither the Artist hastens for the cultivation of his taste, or the examination of those models, which the superior skill of by-gone ages has bequeathed to their posterity. Thither the Antiquarian bends his steps, that he may sit with admiring contemplation, beside the vestiges of antiquity. Thither the Naturalist wanders to explore that loveliness which Nature unfolds beneath a softer sky, and more genial climate.

Excerpt from New Italy The English love Italy, have always loved her indeed, ever since that far-away day when Chaucer visited her and returned to his native country fired with enthusiasm for what he called 'this earthly Paradise with its blue skies and flowery countryside. They have loved her alike in the golden days of the Renaissance and in the sad though glorious days of the Risorgimento; they have revered her artists and her exiled patriots, but they have too often loved her without under standing her.

Excerpt from Scenes From Italy's War Since I wrote this Preface and the first third Of the book, the winter's leisure has been interrupted by the brief campaign in which the Italians captured men and guns, liberated Trieste and Trento, and forced Austria to surrender. That part Of the book stands as first written, with the alteration or addition of a very few sentences referring to the end Of the war. We have thus, for more than three years, been living in constant daily contact with Italians of all ranks, some times joining their messes, always receiving their orders, discussing points of service with them, loading our ambulances daily with their sick and wounded. Our Unit also had for two years a field hospital for Italian soldiers. These opportunities for intercourse and oh servation have been rendered greater by the confidence with which we have always been treated by the Italian chiefs with whom we came in contact, by the spirit Of hospitality and comradeship in which we have been received by thousands of Italian Officers in the scores Of different divisions that we have served, and by the popularity of our service among the peasant soldiers in the ranks.
