" Laughing is the high prerogative of man, and that sublime
and noble quality which distinguishes him from the brute creation.'
Those who cannot laugh gracefully, heartily, and by the hour at
a time, scarcely ought to be ranked among the human species. The
sayings of Manus, the writings of Democritus, and the attic works
of Joe Miller, should therefore be studied in our Universities and
tap-rooms, palaces and cottages, drawing-rooms and kitchens, not
only for health and
.pleasure, but from due regard to the dignity and,
honourable distinction of man."—G. A. Steevens.
