The hour of prayer might be past, --I know not;but I saw no one in these oratories. Little shrines were perched uponthe trees, formed sometimes of boards, at others simply of the cavity ofthe trunk; while the boughs were bent so as to form a canopy over them. Little images and pictures had been stuck into these shrines; but therooks, --these black republicans, --like the "reds" at Rome, had waged awar for possession, and, pitching overboard the little gods thatoccupied them, were inhabiting in ...their room. The "great powers" weretoo busy, or had been so, in the restoration of greater personages, totake up the quarrel of these minor divinities. A strange silence anddreariness brooded over the region. The land seemed keeping itsSabbaths. The fields rested, --the villages were asleep, --the road wasuntrodden. Had one been dropt from the clouds, he would have concludedthat it was but a century or so since the Flood, and that these were therude primitive great-grandchildren of Noah, who had just found their wayinto these parts, and were slowly emerging from barbarism.
