To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The uncultivated mind is weakened by non-*use. For lack of ideas it is often left to the suggestions of the animal appe- * tites, with their debasing and corrupting tendencies. In a land of books and schools, ignorance is not consistent with self- respect or manliness. Even the pitiable standard set up in our prison statistics — ^to be able to read — is far above many of the adults that enter their walls. But when we erect the higher and truer one — of being able to read with facility and zest ...— such proficiency as puts knowledge, both as a pastime and a power, within men's reach, how beggarly is the show then among our prison population ! The average per cent, of the State prison population of New York, in 1864, that could not read was 32. Now, admitting that the remainder could read, and not disparaging the quality of it, it shows eleven times more ignorance among these twenty-four hundred inmates than among the whole out-side adult population of the State. Of those outside the penitentiaries, only three per cent, could not read, while b2 per cent, of those inside could not.
