Literary Dandyism.

Ayoung man is never more certain of
social success than the moment when
most other young men never mention
him without saying that they would
like to kick him." AS Thackery OBJ
served in the case of Pendeunis. that
desire is the result of envy, and of con-
scious humiliation awakened on manly
bosoms. To provoke people so much
is q token of superiority, and prize
of nonchalance. Nor is il social dan
dyism alone which thus irritates the
rabble OF decent fellows who have
neither the vanity nor the impudence,
nor the strength of resolution to win
distinction. Literary dandyism is al.
so excessively annoying to the rugged
hodmen OF letters, the rapid pic
turesque writers, the half or quarter
educated persons who crowd the press
and carry their tartago of ill-sorted
observations to an uncritiCal public.
These industrious persons detest the
literary dandy, the man who minds
his periods, and regards the cadence of
his sentences, and shuns stock illustra-
tions OF quotations, as the social dandy
avoids dirty gloves and clumsy boots.
They howl at him as the little numer-
GUS street boys bully some small Eton-
ian with tall hat and broad white
collar, who has lost himself in Seven
Dials. This antagoniSm naturally
breeds more excess in literary dandy
ism, till the prose Of some critics is as
full of musk and milleheurS rs the
handkerchief of popular preacher.
Both parties are hardened in their
ways; the rough and ready pressman
becomes careless even 81 grammar, and
trots ont his quotations from Macau-
ley's essays more vigorously than of
old. The prose Of the exquisite begins
to die away in aromatic nonsense, and
his great genius tires itself TO death i'll
the hunting for rare exotic adjectives.
This picture from an British stand
point shines brightly also on this SIDE
of the Atlantic and can be accurately
applied to American gentlemen Of
literary disposition and miscellaneous
ability.
