Many a clergyman, with an income of four hundred a year, or thereabouts, wishing that one of his sons, at least, should have the same education, and per- haps follow the same profession, as his father, begins to save, and pinch his family, from the very boyhood of the son, in order that he may accumulate enough for a liberal education at Oxford. England is cram ftdl of daily histories, more touching in the voluntary privations of fathers, and mothers, and daughters, for the sake of one who is t...o inherit his father's position, than the most pathetic passages of novels. Derived from these priva- tions, out of the wanton forgetfuhiess of the son, and the uncomplaining patience of his family, out of the misery of evil example, and the facility and width of its con- tagion, incidents have occurred of a far more tragic cast than the world knows, and perhaps would care to know, since the tragic sense is strongly infected with flunkeyism. If folks could tell where to gather it from, and how to get at the facts, they might be overwhelmed with materials for those sentimental sorrows which well- off people enjoy, and philanthropic novelists profit by.
