He mingles with ' the people,' in the broadest sense of that expression, and he thoroughly understands what he sees. He is brought into contact with all classes of humanity, from the pashas, and rajahs, and pundits, and mandarins, and daimios of the various countries whither he has gone, down to the peasants, the fellahin, even the beggars by the wayside. His calling is peculiarly calculated to familiarise him with the manners of the people, the systems of native education, the national traditions, and every branch of science, art, literature, and industry cultivated by the people.
