is hardly more to be envied than that of the slave, and needs quite as much tenderness, and forecast in its treatment. To Miss Maria Edgeworth, Edgeworthtown. Boston, March 30, 1844. my dear Miss Edgeworth,—. . . . On looking over your letter, which is now lying before me, I am struck anew with the substantial similarity of the interests, great and small, that agitate society on both sides of the Atlantic, and, I dare say, on both sides of the globe. Man, as a wise friend Rev. Dr. Francis Wayland, author of Elements of Intellectual Philosophy, etc., and President of Brown University, Rhode Island. once said to me, is, after all, an animal that has only a few tricks. . . . .

I hope that you knew that it would when you wrote it. But on my own account it is quite necessary that I should do so, for if I were not to thank you I should feel that I had been guilty of a wrongful omission. Let me do it, then, very heartily, and somewhat humbly: very heartily, because I am grateful that you accept the view of my friend's character such as I have presented it; and very humbly, because I cannot conscientiously accept most of the words of praise you so kindly send me. I wish I could. I should then feel that I have done, for Prescott's
