Up the harbor of Liverpool.--We all emerge as butterflies.--The Mersey tender.--Lot's wife.--"Any tobacco?"--"Names, please."--St. George's Hall.--The fashionable promenade.--The coffee-room.--The military man who showed the purple tide of war in his face.--The railway carriage.--The young man with hair all aflame.--English villages.--London.--No place for us.--The H. house.--The Babes in the Wood.--The party from the country.--We are taken in charge by the Good Man.--The Golden Cross.--Solitary confinement.--Mrs. B.'s at last. WE steamed up the harbor of Liverpool the next morning. New Brighton, with its green terraces, its Chinese-pagoda villas, spread out upon one side, upon the other that solid wall of docks, the barricade that breaks the constant charges of the sea, with the masts of ships from every land for an abattis. The wraps and shapeless garments worn so long were laid aside; the pretty hood which had, like charity, covered so many sins of omission, hidden, itself, at last, the soft wool stiffened with the sea spray, the bright colors dimmed by smoke, and soot, and burning sun. We crept shyly upon the deck in our unaccustomed finery, as though called at a moment's notice to play another woman's part, half-learned. Not in us alone was the transformation. The girl in blue had blossomed into a bell--a blue bell. The Cattle Man, his hands released at last from the thraldom of his pockets, stalked about, funereal, in wrinkled black. A solferino neck-tie and tall hat of a pie-Adamite formation transmogrified our Mowing Machine friend. Nondescripts, that had lain about the deck wrapped in cocoons of rugs and shawls, emerged suddenly--butterflies! A painful courtesy seized us all. We had doffed the old familiar intercourse with our sea-garments. We gathered in knots, or stood apart singly, mindful at last of our dignity.
