son Sammy, that nothing would be a greater curse to him than to have all his desires gratified ; ac- cording to the old story of the Three Wishes.
On the other hand, if a man would but buckle his desires within the belt of his circumstances, he would be happy in an Irish cabin." '' Do you think, uncle Benjamin, that men usually gain this sort of wisdom in proportion as they rise in the world ?" " No, no — far from it.
Pampering does not produce patience. He who grows rich is only feeding a feve...r. Indulgence begets peevishness. Those tailors and shoe- makers, along our street, who are just shutting up for the night, are happier than the wealthy sports- men and idlers over the river ; nay, they are hap- pier than they will be themselves, when, like so many American mechanics, they become wealthy, and live in their own great houses. I have often heard Thrale, the rich brewer, say that he did not feel at home in his own parlour, and that he looked back with regret to the days when he had but three rooms in his house." This led me to relate the story of my cousin Barnaby Cox.
