The Approach To The Offices Of Girdlestone And Co. Was Not A Very Dignified One, Nor Would The Uninitiated Who Traversed It Form Any Conception Of The Commercial Prosperity Of The Firm In Question. Close To The Corner Of A Broad And Busy Street, Within A Couple Of Hundred Yards Of Fenchurch Street Station, A Narrow Doorway Opens Into A Long Whitewashed Passage. On One Side Of This Is A Brass Plate With The Inscription "Girdlestone And Co., African Merchants," And Above It A Curious Hieroglyphic Supposed To Represent A Human Hand In The Act Of Pointing. Following The Guidance Of This Somewhat Ghostly Emblem, The Wayfarer Finds Himself In A Small Square Yard Surrounded By Doors, Upon One Of Which The Name Of The Firm Reappears In Large White Letters, With The Word "Push" Printed Beneath It. If He Follows This Laconic Invitation He Will Make His Way Into A Long, Low Apartment, Which Is The Counting-House Of The African Traders. [more]

I should mention that there is one fact which describes minutely my veneration for Stevens's work at its best, perhaps the fullest; whereby I mean that inspection of his intellectual labour has always restored to me the time so wisely occupied in regarding it, proving that there is goodness, virtue, essence in it, past all fellowship with ephemeral things. There is a true, not a laconic, logical, and prophetic inference in it that is apropriately styled, "time"; the finest embodiment of musical equipoise; felt to a "tick"; no faltering, barbaric, or false quantities, but a sustained and equable, uniform tone of chromatic measure, meted out as by a mind imbued by but sacrificing the scale of colour to its own actual, achieved end.

It Is Not Necessary To Say, With How Much Interest Alderman Van Beverout, And His Friend The Patroon, Had Witnessed All The Proceedings On Hoard The Coquette. Something Very Like An Exclamation Of Pleasure Escaped The Former, When It Was Known That The Ship Had Missed The Brigantine, And That There Was Now Little Probability Of Overtaking Her That Night. "Of What Use Is It To Chase Your Fire-Flies, About The Ocean, Patroon?" Muttered The Alderman, In The Ear Of Oloff Van Staats. "I Have No Further Knowledge Of This 'Skimmer Of The Seas,' Than Is Decent In The Principal Of A Commercial House,--But Reputation Is Like A Sky-Rocket, That May Be Seen From Afar! Her Majesty Has No Ship That Can Overtake The Free-Trader, And Why Fatigue The Innocent Vessel For No Thing?" "Captain Ludlow Has Other Desires Than The Mere Capture Of The Brigantine;" Returned The Laconic And Sententious Patroon. "The Opinion That Alida De Barberie Is In Her, Has Great Influence With That Gentleman." [more]
