The Haarlem river (Muscoota,) which forms the western boundar)' of the towm, is one of the sweetest, streams that ever gave a charm to land- ' scape. On the Westchester shore high woods cover the sides of undulating hills, while here and there rich meadows form a gradual and beautiful descent to the water's edge. The opposite banks are abruptly terminated with rocky declivities, and present by their greater boldness a fine contrast. These waters aftbrd an agreeable haunt to the kiri^ fisher, "the most cel-brated and besung of all other birds," savs Aldrovand, likewise to the heron andy/jV^ haii-'k.
