The descendants of literary men, or men OF
genius, are generally few. 1t is very seldom
that men distinguished for intellectual power
leave more than brief progeny behind them,
and men of imaginative genius almost never.
There are some exceptions to this, as for ~
stance, Charles Dickens has no less than seven
sons. and we all know of instances IN this
country and abroad where great men and
great poets have had large families; still the
rule remains, that with the increase OF IN
tellect there is decrease of progeny. Per
haps the children of great men are ottener
female than male. This rule applies to ma
tons as well as individuals. New countries
with a rough, unlettered people. where the
physical il well developed and the intel
iect lies fallow, have rapid increase ofpopu-
lation. =,
So much by way of introduction to the fol
lowing statistics which the Newburyport
Herald has gathered dup:
with the exception of Surrey and Spencer,
there is not single representative in the
male line, so far down as the third generation
Of any En- slish poet, and the same is true of
France. Chaucer's son died childless.-
Shakespeare and Milton ceased in famil y with
GRAND daughters. Raleigh, Cowley, Bacon,
Butler, Bolingbroke, Addison and Burke, the
last of whom died heartbroken from the loss
of an only son, transmitted no blood. Byron
left only one daughter Ada, sole daughter
of his house and heart" Pope, Johnson
Hume, Gibbon, Goldsmith, Swift, Locke,
Newton, Cowper, Gray, and many other liter
ary men of former times, whose names are
destined to be repeated for generations, ne
yer married Of the two great British orators
Pitt and Fox-one a bachelor and the
other was childless Tom Moore's children
all preceded him to the grave Walter Scott
left sons and daughters; but we believe that
the last of his descendants has recently died,
if not, the honors of the House of Abbotsford
remain with one little girl. Tom Hood has
one son to bear his name, and left an only
daughter. Thackeray has daughters, but
d'Israli is childless. Thus five run through
the names of the intellectual luminaries ofour
age. or any age-of our country, or any coun-
try, we shall find the rule true-that
many children are not the gifsaOfgreat minds:
1t has been said that this brightness and
greatness indicate ripencss in such family,
and speedy end. The fact we know-the
cause is more difficult to name"
