The great storm on tlic Atlantic coast , has
become a calm. The storm king has nt Ins
yielded his sceptre , to the milder reign o *
Old Sol , who now armies bunlgnuntly upon
the beach , as though it wore as undisturbed
as It was before the storm , writes Mr.r.v K.

The ocean , too , looks as placid as a lake.
Only ono small breaker fringes tlio coast
and lazily laps up upon the bench , swaying
back and forth us gently and beautifully as
though It were rocking a child's ' cradle.
A wonderful contrast this , to last week ,
when , at my open door , I sat In my rocking
chair , which shook with the violence nf tlm
wind , ns though it had an nLTiie fit , nnd
watched the waves roll in , like snow-cuppci'
mountains , and listened to the mud rush mu
roar of the angry deep , until 1 could sit Mil
no longer for fear thu hand had been with
drawn which hud said to the ocean "Hitherto
shaft thou como , and no farther , nnd hern
shall thy proud waves bo stayed. "
To-day , however , when I walked on the
bench , all was qnlct , peaceful and still. I
counted , in the distance , through thu hn/u
which overspread the skies and the ocean ,
eight largo steamers , slowly coasting along
thu rilgo of the horimn , beside suvuru
schooners with sails fully spread to catch th
broiv.e.
