Thomas Carlyle. Carlyle certainly taught us to have s on scent for cent and to other i1, tough his horror of cant certainly some - t mes became a cunt of his own. The ll-sbll of denouncing cant is very apt to blind as to the cent of demons iatiorI Until men leave off eloquent general! tier and look quietly into thu-ir own in hearts without blast of trumpets and , . glorification of themselves for strippin z themselves of cant they will not strip themselves of the ray habit which most endangers their truthfulness and sincer- ity. Carlyle taught us to despise (ant, but hardly to detect it in ourselves. His genius was as impatient as his industry was patient. There was no toil which he would not go through to make his books workmaniike, but a great many of his carefully compiled facts proved to be more or less adapted to spoil the effect of his impatient epi- grarmt. A great part of Carlyle's'genius was a genius for lrnppy exaggeration. though it was a kind of exaggeraticxl which brought out, as nothing else. could have brought opt, the real drift and sig- nificance of social and political facts. Never did any man preach the duty of submitting to wise authority more els- queutly, but never was there a man of genius who was less inclined to subju- gate his own mind to the authority for which he professed so Platonic an Lil'cc-I tiou. He has flashed all manner of lIril- liant lights 'upon character and histoy. Dil'j he has not i'rmud for us any coherent code of wisdom or any valuable avenue to religious truth. h—London Spectator.
