All the qualities, all the virtues, which are attached to agricul- ture, are wanting in the man who lives by fishing. Agriculture produces a patriot in the truest acceptation of the word ; fishing can alone succeed in forming a cosmopolite. I have, perhaps, dwelt too long on a sketch of these manners: it may seem foreign to this memoir ; and yet it completes the object of it ; for I had to prove that it was not merely by 46 by reason of their origin, of their lan- guage, and of their interest, ...that the Americans so constantly find them- selves to be Englishmen — an observa- tion which applies more especially to the inhabitants of the cities. When I cast my eyes upon those people wan- dering amongst the woods, upon the shores of the sea, and by the banks of the rivers, my general observation was strengthened, with regard to them, by that indolence and want of a native character, which renders this class of Americans more ready to receive and to preserve the impression of a foreign one.
