 Plymouth,
on the shore of Massachusetts. They came here driven by no thirst of
conquest, by no greed for gold, dreaming of no Western empire such as
Cortez had achieved and Raleigh had meditated. They desired to earn
their bread in the sweat of their brow, worshipping God according to
their own lights, living in harmony under their own laws, and feeling
that no master could claim a right to put a heel upon their necks.
And be it remembered that here in England, in those days, earthly
masters were still apt to put their heels on the necks of men. The
Star Chamber was gone, but Jeffreys had not yet reigned. What earthly
aspirations were ever higher than these, or more manly? And what
earthly efforts ever led to grander results?

We determined to go to Portland, in Maine, from thence to the White
Mountains in New Hampshire--the American Alps, as they love to call
themselves,--and then on to Quebec and up through the two Canadas
to Niagara; and this route we followed. From Boston to Portland we
travelled by railroad,--the carriages on which are in America always
called cars. And here I beg, once for all, to enter my protest loudly
against the manner in which these conveyances are conducted. The one
grand fault--there are other smaller faults--but the one grand fault
is that they admit but one class. Two reasons for this are given.
The first is that the finances of the companies will not admit of
a divided accommodation; and the second is that the republican
nature of the people will not brook a superior or aristocratic
classification of travelling. As regards the first, I do not in the
least believe in it. If a more expensive manner of railway travelling
will pay in England, it would surely do so here. Were a better class
of carriages organized, as large a portion of the population would
use them in the United States as in any country in Europe. And it
seems to be evident that in arranging that there shall be only one
rate of travelling, the price is enhanced on poor travellers exactly
in proportion as it is made cheap to those who are not poor. For the
poorer classes, travelling in America is by no means cheap,--the
average rate being, as far as I can judge
Plymouth, 
 on the shore of Massachusetts. They came here driven by no thirst of 
 conquest, by no avarice for amber, dream of no Western conglomerate such as 
 Cortez had achieved and Raleigh had study. They desired to earn 
 their boodle in the fret of their brow, worshipping God according to 
 their own lights, exist in harmony under their own laws, and feeling 
 that no victor could claim a right to put a heel upon their necks. 
 And be it remembered that here in England, in those days, earthly 
 master were still apt to put their heel on the necks of men. The

 grand fault -- there be early small faults -- but the one grand demerit 
 is that they admit but one class. Two reasons for this are given. 
 The inaugural is that the finances of the companies will not admit of 
 a divided accommodation; and the second is that the republican 
 nature of the people will not digest a superior or aristocratic 
 classification of travelling. As regards the first, I do not in the 
 least believe in it. If a more expensive manner of railway travel 
 will yield in England, it would surely do so here. Were a better class 
 of baby buggy organized, as large a portion of the population would 
 use them in the United States as in any country in Europe. And it 
 seems to be evident that in arranging that there shall be entirely one 
 rate of travel, the price is enhanced on hapless travellers precisely 
 in proportion as it is reach cheap to those who are not inadequate. For the 
 poorer classes, travelling in America is by no means cheap,--the 
 average pace being, as far as I can judge
