C1162.4.5 1958 HARVARD COLLEGE LIBRARY 1875, April 3. Subscription Fund. $2.50 コ Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1870, by MONCURE D. CONWAY, In the Clerk's Office of the District Court for the Southern District of The pure Earth is situated in the pure Heavens. The soul which has passed through life with purity and moderation obtains the gods for fellow-travellers and guides, and rests in the abode suited to it. There are indeed many and wonderful places in the Earth, and it is neither of such a kind nor of such a magnitude as is supposed by those who are accustomed to speak of the Earth, as I have been persuaded by a certain person.
