HI* Rival’* Novel.
Hove you read “David Copperfleld,"
by the way? IIow beautiful It Is—
how chnrmingly fresh and simple in
those admirable touches of tender hu
mor—and I should rail humor a mix
ture of love and wit—who cnn equal
this great genius? There are llttl#
words and phrases In his books which
are like personal benefits to the render.
What a place It.ls to hold In the affec
tions of men! What an awful re
sponsibility hanging over a writer.
What man holding such a place, and
knowing that his words go forth to
vast congregations of mankind—to
grown folks—to their children, and
perhaps to their children’s children—
but must think of Ids calling with a
solemn and humble heart!—Thackeray.
