flfessri; Editors :-‘-‘-If you have forgotten the
geographical position of this plittflii and ‘are
iibout to inquire, “ Wh6i'e is NEW Sl’|0l‘€lJllm 1'"
I reply, it is located on the eastern extremity
of Block Island, and is one Of the most l'0mi1fl-
tie and healthful situations on the At.lantic coast.
Brock Island, as you are, aware, is a beautiful:
little jewel of an island, about nine miles in
l'ength, and three in width, located about twenty
one miles east of Montauk Point, L. I. and
‘south-west by south of Newport, 28 miles in the
kvaters of the great Atlantic. In a very clear
day, the main land is visible from the Island.
But if the sky be a little hazy, you can see
nought but the sky, and the horizon in any di-
rection, unless it be here and there a white sail,
dotting the blue expanse of water; around you.
Here, the song of the sea-bird, and the eternal
lullaby of old ocean, will hush you to sleep at
‘night, and stir the very depths of your soul, with
its wild music in the morning. Its iiionotouous
‘murmur, or its harsh thunder in stormy weath-
er, rolls round its entire circumfrence, and the
‘crested billows of the Atlantic lash its rugged
-"shores continually.
The pure sea breeze that sweep across this
-lovely scagirt Isle, will put new life into your
languid frame, and dilate your chest with re-
newed vitality, if so be that you are free from
;'pulmonary plifliisis. But if not, you will find
‘the air here too bracing, and too highly oxygen-
ated, demanding more carbon for its consump-
‘tion than any pulmonary patient will be able to
supply. And hence consumptive patients who
visit this island for their health, are obliged to
leave immediately, or experience an aggrava-
tion of all their disagreable symptoms. And I
-derived from the boatmen on this Island, a sin-
gular fact in regard to such cases-—to wit, that
persons thus afllicted are never sea sic/c. This
circumstance came (to me at least) with the
freshness and novelty of something concerning
which I was previously ignorant, although your
readers may be familiar with t.he fact.
Block Island has been long noted for the
rugged health, and enduring hardihood of its
isolated inhabitants. Indeed, it has passed in-
to a kind of proverb, that the “ natives never
die,” that they become “ cured” by their con-
tinued exposure to a saline atmosphere. But
this we found to be a mistake, as death had
found his way, even to this retired spot, in the
great waste of waters, and had stricken down a
lovely young lady on the very day of our ar-
rival. '
“ Death enters, and tbere’s no defence,
His time, there's none can tell."
He pursues his victims o’er land and sea, and
never——never—-fails of his mark.
The surface of the land here, is remarkably
und_ulating—either rolling up into hills, or softly
melting away into valleys like the waves of the
sea—so that in travelling over it, you may re-
alize the truth of the Paddy’s description, when
he said, that -‘you no sooner get up than you
begin to go down-—-and no sooner get down, than
you begin to get up.”
I The island appears very naked, owing to its
entir_e'destitution of trees and slirubbery of any
kind. Yet the land is very fertile, and pro-
duces the most luxuriant crops of corn. grass,
oats, barley, potatoes, &c. By the way, the
rot is working destruction to the ' potatoes on
this island, and scarcely any will be garnered
from the extensive patches all around it.
The swamp holes abound with peet, thus
supplying the Islanders with fuel in abundance.
And thus we see, that what Providence denies
on the one hand, is bountifully provided on t.lie
other.
The geological appearance of this island is
such as lead iue to suppose that at some past
period it must have constituted a part of Long
Island. And this idea finds support in the fact
that it is on a line directly east of Montauk,
and resembles that point so much, as to arrest
the attention of any visitor who is familiar with
both. On naming this circumstance to one of
the Islanders, he remarked, that there was a
bank or shoal. that could be traced distinctly,
running from Montauk Point to the western
extremity of Block Island.
There are said to be about twelve hundred
inhaliitants living upon this beautiful Island,
mostly farmers and fishermen. There are four
Churches here, all of the Baptist denomination,
though not of the same creed. The habits of
the people are very primitive and simple, and
their intercourse seems marked with the ut-
most frankness and good faith. They are a
kind of people, that when you see them, you
would be satisfied to trust your life in their
hands. 80 Strongly do they bear the marks of
honesty, integrity, and truthfulness. And what
speaks volumes in favor of their moral charac-
ter is the fact. that among those hardy fisher-
men (and they nearly all belong to this class)
. I have scarcely heard a profane word uttered
during our stay. \Vould to heaven that they
would always lay a strict embargo, on all the
fashionable vices of society. and deal in nothing
that may be considered contraband old fashioned
morality.
For piscatorial operations, this is decidedly
the place. Here you can meet
“ A foe-inairworthy ofyour steel,"
or in other words, fish that are worth catchinrr.
What if it makes one a little sea-sick? There
is only a “ risz'ng” for a few moments, and then
you can “ pull in another Cod,” and just; lie
down very deliberately across the gunwale of
the vessel, taking’ good care to hold on with both
hands, to prevent heaving yourself overboard-
and pay your, next instalment, and so on, until
you have settled all the claims, that may be
due from you to his Majesty’s government.

This is very remarkable, when you consider
that fogs are very frequent, and so dense that
you can almost cut them with a knife. And
tradition among them, only mentions the loss of‘
two of these craft, and they were lost in plea-
sant weather with all on board, so that no one
was left to tell the tale.
The want of a harbor subjects these people
to great inconvenience, inasmuch ,as they are
under the necessity of hauling their boats up
on the shore whenever they have a severe
easterly or iiorth-easterly gale ; and many ves-
sels are lost in bad weather for the want ofa
harbor in this island.
which they have in this respect, is a kind of
cove or broad-mouthed bay sweeping from N
E. to the S. E. point of this island, in the form
ofa crescent, giving them a kind of shelter he-

If the present administration was not known
to be hostile to River and Harbor improvements,
I should expect to see their petition before
Congress responded to. in the form of a good
substantial break water at this place which
could not fail to be of great value to the inter-
ests of the coasting trade. But no! while we
have millions to squander in an unrighteous
cruisade against Mexico, we have not $20,000

our commercial marine. Out on such an ad-

tages, let me say to you, by all means visit
Block Island. Come here and commune with
nature in some of her sublimest aspects. Come
sit upon some high beetling cliff that rises some
hundred feet above the ocean, whose thunder-
ing billows madly dash themselves upon the
shore at your feet, and drink in the inspiration
of the scene before you. Come here, and see
the sun rise like a globe of fire out of the limit-
less ocean, in the morning, and sink beneath
its mighty mass of moving waters, at eventide.
Come here and bathe your languid frame in
the clear blue waters of the Atlantic, and feel
yoursclfa stronger and better man. And if at
midday you will visit the iron spring and drink
its waters, as they come gushing cooly from
the hill, you will find your nervous energy re-
turning, and your spirits freshening under the
influence of places, and scenes like these. But
above all, come here and catch a codfisli--if
you are obliged to “ skin a Fox” at the same
time. For while “ Reuben and his mate,” are
at hand to assist, you have nothing to fear.
Yours, as ever, DOLPIIIN.
