The volume closes with sundry comparisons be-
tween the society of London and that of Ncw-foIk,
which the author finds have few points of resen-
blance to each other The democratic element he
considers too powerful in this country, to admit of
any marked social distinctions. The plain man
cares nothing for the man VINO If above
him. though real superiOritcs are perhaps
even too much respected. The bulk OF
the American reading people recognize what
is excellent but they have not the critical se-conii-
derce which is the fruit of high culture. Hence
they fail to insist upon the limitations OF
their great men, and accept every preten-
sion, without an attempt at judicial scrutiny. TIE
national aristCcTatic society Of former age has dis
appeared with the disappearance Of respect for p1t-
zeal celebrities. What is called position is nov alto
gether local. The village gfand,e leaves his import
ance at home when he goes into the world. And IN
\ large town few men are of size TO bc seen over
the whole town. As a consequence Newly OK Is Der
haps the most democratic town IN the country. IL Is
a rather singular paradox that II shorld have be-
coue so while shooting INFO "a position OF coNmnp0l-
tan importance. Nj. Nada accordingly concludes
that any dominant society in this country Is nnpos-
sible aud therefore people inclined TO be restless

DO H. the chief attraction Of which consists in lts
curate aud of,n piquant descriptions. His vocation
for time has led him through garden oi tempting
fruits and splendid flowers, and h. has brought back

hranr, of Tie excursion.
