large golden-ingot loaded men, would be only solitary
objects of laughter in the present helter-skelter
times, unless they broke down their ingots each into
its equivalent amount of small copper coin, and took
share in the scramble, by scattering these about like
gratuities at a rustic wedding.

That some good accrues from this extraordinary
change, it would be unfair to deny, because it is a
law of Divine Providence, that even the greatest evil
shall subserve ultimately beneficial ends; but that
its had effects in the meantime far exceed those that
are beneficial, is a proposition too plain to be refuted,
as evinced in the following, among many other re-
spects, that might be adduced.

It is as

that all acquainted with that field only a few years
ago, now scarcely recognise one old friend with his
old accustomed face, in passing through it.
if a host of Vandals were to break into the British
Museum, and, carrying out thence all the statues
and other monuments it contains, break them up into
fragments, according to their own whims, and sell
these fragments afterwards, as conveying each the full
lessons of instruction, or impressions of beauty, that
dwelt in and radiated from the unmutilated originals.
Impressed by some image analogous to this, a friend
of mine has appositely sung :--

"Hark, hark the patter

Of hammers, breaking down the matter
Of every tome of solid weight,

To strew on mind's highways, made straight,
And smooth, and plain, for common feet!--
See, right and left, how oft we meet
With such Macadamizing ones,

By heaps of wisdom's broken stones,-
Full of the thought, that what they so
Break, torture, and around them strew,

Third: that portion of our current literature, which must in courtesy be styled original, to distinguish it from the mass of pilfered, hashed-up trash we have been considering, demands next a description of the frivolous, degenerate state into which, from interest, example and sympathy, so much of it has also fallen. But our limits being already reached, we must postpone this branch of the subject until some other opportunity; concluding meanwhile with an expression of sincere regret, that the present state of literature...
