led him, he was forced to reverse his mode of life and to give the preference to out-door work. This was perhaps the best thing for him, so long as his vision was impaired. He remained at Brook Farm altogether about five years, or from 1841 till 1846, and in order that his life there may be more fully understood, I subjoin a condensed account of the interesting experiment which was tried out at that place. The movement which culminated in the Brook Farm Association grew primarily out of thesont Proportionelle aux Destines after Novalis, Ad Arma, The Secret (from the German of Seidl), The beauty of the earth (from the German of Ruchert), Mutual longing (from the German of Heine), To the Moon (from the German of Holty). The next year, 1846, he published the Bankrupt, Erotis, Patience (from the German of Spitta), The question (from the German of Heine), and Memnon. Of these Erotis is the longest and Memnon the best.

c, an enterprise which he considered as by far the most important in its character and consequences yet presented for public consideration. He contendd that there was no hope of financing the undertaking, except by using the public lands as a source of capital, coupled with a judicious scheme for the colonization of the region through which the road should be located. This was in 1850, and it is a noteworthy fact that at that early date he favored the plans of Asa Whitney, who, as early as 1846, had made a proposition to the government for the construction of a line from the western end of Lake Michigan to the Pacific Ocean. The first speech in the Senate in advocacy of the general measure was made by Senator Breeze, of Illinois, but the bill which was finally passed was introduced by Senator Benton, of Missouri, in 1849. Dana gave this scheme his heartiest approval and support from the first, and urged that should the bounty land bill become a law, as he feared it would, it shoul
