(From the United States
Factory Children in France.

The room Of a factory in which
children are employed, presents q
heart-breaking sight. The human

ing at every step after information.
no mental development Is possible.
But in a child which from the age Of
six, eight, or ten years, goes day al
ter day from home TO the factory, and
from the factory home again; which,
weary in body, feels after working
hours no other want than Of food and
rest, it is almost utterly impossible
that the mind can develope itself in
the slightest degree. 1t is a corporal
spectre, i body without mind. In
deed schools are not capable Of ap.
plying a remedy to this case; for it is
not the school, but life that developes
the mental activity of the child. Ii
would be a trifie to teach such chill
cren TO read and write; but it would
be a gigantic work to cultivate their
minds; this, however, is not an affair
of learning and teaching, but only of
experience, of intuition, OF the ap-
prehension of external appearances,
concerning which the young mind
reasons with itself, and thus elabo-
rates the materials. A boy whose
life has consisted only in the altera-
ton oflabor in the factory, and learn
ing in the school, will, in a hundred
times, not rise more than ono above
the level Of the brute. Life is the
school of life, and these wretchedly
unfortunate children are torn from it,
in expiration of Heaven knows what
tremendous m~aledictions, to forget in
the factory-nay, worse than that,
never to have a conception--that
they are human beings; or, perhaps,
to feel this for a moment, and to be-
come, in the fury OF their brutality,
rapacious beasts.
But these are only general grounds;
there are particular ones OF a still
more revolting nature. In the spin.
ming factories, the children are most
" placed under the adult workmen,
two or three to each. This fellow,
brutal, unfeeling, without a spark OF
mind, is their absolute lord and mas
ter. The slightest carelessness, which
is attended with a trihing loss to him,
kindles his rage, and is punished with
cruel usage. Thus almost every spin
ner is the unrestricted master OF q
