At this beautifully written article, Mark Twain has compared two different views of a person about the same subject. The subject in this article is the Mississippi River as a symbol of different features, so natural and unpredictable. In a romantic view, this river is full of graceful and marvelous events and features. Every moment of its scene has its own color, sense and beauty which fill the person with joy and happiness. Even a dried leaf or a little line or ripple makes him bewitched. On the other hand he describes another kind of view. A view to write comments that are full of information without mentioning any especial sign of beauty of this river’s scene; just warning and some helpful information to guid steamboats.

He has used smilies in some parts of his article. For example; he has compared the single leaf of the bough with a flame in the unobstructed splendor which makes the scene more romantic and imaginable, and I think the main point of view or theme of this article is about the kind of looking to different things. Everyone sees a subject from her point of view which sometimes leads to loosing the beauty and magic of that specific subject. As Twain says, We can look at the red cheek of a beautiful patient as a doctor to diagnose the reason of her fever while we neglect the beauty of her face.

Sometimes we behave like tools which don’t know what are they dealing with. We just do what we get used to do and have to do. It seems that we are made to do special things like robots. We every day drive the same ways to our work while we are loosing the beauty of trees or sunshine or mountain. Sometimes even our emotional roles in our life makes us forget the main reason of those roles. Like those mothers who just think how to raise their children while they don’t joy their children’s smell or beauty of their smiles.
