I could wish him an additional 'KLAFTER HOLZ' (cord more of firewood) now and then, in the cold months!-- "Sterbohol Farmstead has been new built, in man's memory, but is dirty as ever.

Agriculture, all over this table-land of the Ziscaberg, I should judge to be bad.

Not so the prospect; which is cheerfully extensive, picturesque in parts, and to the student of Friedrich offers good commentary.

Roads, mansions, villages: Prossik, Kyge, Podschernitz, from the Heights of Chaber round to Nussel and beyond: from any knoll, all Friedrich's Villages, and many more, lie round you as on a map,--their dirt all hidden, nothing wanting to the landscape, were it better carpeted with green (green instead of russet), and shaded here and there with wood.

A small wild pink, bright-red, and of the size of a star, grows extensively about; of which you are tempted to pluck specimens, as memorial of a Field so famous in War." [Tourist's Note (September, 1858).].
