But I liked the statue, and all the better for what Icriticise, and was sorry to see the huge package in which the finishedmarble lies bundled up, ready to be sent to our country, --which does notcall for it. Mr. Powers and his two daughters called to take leave of us, and atparting I expressed a hope of seeing him in America. He said that itwould make him very unhappy to believe that he should never returnthither; but it seems to me that he has no such definite purpose ofreturn as would be cer...tain to bring itself to pass. It makes a veryunsatisfactory life, thus to spend the greater part of it in exile. Insuch a case we are always deferring the reality of life till a futuremoment, and, by and by, we have deferred it till there are no futuremoments; or, if we do go back, we find that life has shifted whatever ofreality it had to the country where we deemed ourselves only livingtemporarily; and so between two stools we come to the ground, and makeourselves a part of one or the other country only by laying our bones inits soil.
