Our statistics are at fault: the population has been returned too large. How many men are there to a square thousand miles in this country? Hardly one.” “The most advanced nations are always those who navigate the most. The power which the sea requires in the sailor makes a man of him very fast, and the change of shores and population clears his head of much nonsense of his wigwam.” |
