To have its full effect upon the mind, it should be heard by night, in some wild mountainpass, and from a distance. Then the harsh tones come softened to the ear, and in unison with the hour and the scene, produce a pleasing melancholy. The contrabandista accompanied us to Granada. The sun had already set when we entered the Vega,--those luxuriant meadows which stretch away to the south and west of the city, league after league of rich, unbroken verdure.
