rous gates, like thofe of barrier towns, which open to the warehoufes that are attached to the back part of each house. It is curious to fee the ornaments of the Corinthian order ftuck against the upper ftory, without the column to fupport them. Such attempts at architectural decorationare inconceivably ridiculous: and in the interior arrangement of the houfes, miftakes are made, which a very moderate portion of tafte would have avoided. It frequently happens, that apartments which would grace the manfion of a prince, have no other views from their windows than the dead walls of a warehoufe, ufed for the vileft purposes of trade, as a magazine for ftockfish, skins, tobacco, and the like. I met with a striking inftance of this at the houfe of Mr.

a gentleman whofe collection of paintings does equal honour to his liberality and tafte. An apartment of almoft regalmagnificence looks immediately into his warehouse, and the eye turns with horror from the works of Titian and Rubens, to cranes, bales, cafks, &c. the appendages of commerce. In the collection of this gentleman, a Holy Family by Rubens, a Venus couchant by Titian, and a St. John by Rembrandt, are pieces of exquifite merit. That they should be placed in a room fo unfortunately fituated is the more to be cenfured, as the front of his house commands a noble view of the Macfe, and an uninterrupted profpect of the country on the opposite fide of the river.

"The principal ftreets of Rotterdam are thickly planted with trees, which, together with the canals which flow in the middle of them, and the drawbridges in excellent repair and neatly painted that every where meet the eye, give them an agreeable appearance. The windows and doors of the houses are in general painted green, which has a lively effect, and this is much increafed by the fcrupulous cleanlinefs which is univerfally practifed. Not only the windows, but the whole front of the houfe, is generally washed two or three times a week by engines for that pur pofe, which are abundantly fupplied with water from the canals, and the fame care is extended to the pavement of the streets in which the more opulent inhabitants refide." P. 44.

THE STORK HELD IN GREAT
VENERATION.

"IN the fish-market, near the great church (Hague), attracted by the offals of the place, which furnish them with a ready and plentiful fuftenance, and protected by the prejudices of the people in their favour, are to be seen a number of ftorks moft familiarly tame. This bird is the peculiar protegée of republics; and if popular opinion is to be believed, the attachment it bears to liberty will not permit it to inhabit the dominions of a monarch. I will not vouch for the truth of this opinion; but certain it is, that the plumed favourite of the republic has for ages enjoyed the refpect and protection of mankind. Plutarch * informs us, that in fuch honour ftorks were held in Theffaly, that the punishment of exile was denounced against the man who fhould unfortunately deftroy one of these facred birds; and the Greek language has a word expreffive of filial gratitude (aytime dapysy), which, literally tranflated, fignifies to act like a ftork. The veneration with which Greece regarded this bird was adopted by the Roman commonwealth. The virtuous Antoninus ftamped on the reverfe of a medal which bore his head the image of a ftork, and beneath the word pictas was infcribed; and a poet who lafhed the worst profligacy of a debauched age ftyles it, pietaticultrix,

gracilipes, crotaliftria. The attention of this bird to its aged parents, in defending them against attack, and furnifhing them with food, is a fact too well established to be doubted; but I cannot bear teftimony to the elegance of its form, or the harmony of its voice. Its legs are long, and, though admirably fitted for its modes of life, extremely difproportionate to the size of its body; and the only founds which I heard it emit were piercing and diffonant fcreams. I, however, regard the ftork with favour, and am pleafed with the prejudice which protects the pia avis of Greece and Rome." P. 72.
