After the long and harassing journey through France, the monotonous scenery of which supplies but little to relieve the tediousness of the way, where the reminiscences are not of romantic beauty, but of diligences, hotels, and dishonest bills, how delightful it is to find oneself upon the blue Mediterranean, with a sky above us that tells we are fast approaching the sweet south! The moment we leave Marseilles we enter into a new world; and the prospect from the quarter-deck of the steamer, of rocky islets and the receding mainland.
