The Union Magazine PDF Download

Excerpt from The Union Magazine, Vol. 1: No. 1. July, 1861 And as we rise in the scale of crea tion, from the mineral to the vegetable kingdom, we there meet with elements of stability. Vegetation is now gov erned by the same laws of growth, maturity, decay, and reproduction, as existed during the first formation of the earth; which contains the fossil remains of the primeval plants; de posited there, perhaps, centuries be fore the creation of man. The lady in Europe or America, as she now promenades her garden. Inhales the same fragrance from her flowers, adorns her beautiful ringlets with roses, violets, and lilies; possessing the same rich variety of colors, the same crim son tints and carnation hues, - as wreathed the brow and delighted the senses of their mother Eve, in the days of Eden's bloom.
