Politics, however; did not engross young
McCarthy's attention to the exclusion of
literature. When he first settled in Lon
don, he tells us, England was under the
sway of a great literary triumvirate-
Dickens, Thackeray and Tennyson. AS
yet Browning was but the leader of a Sc
lect few. Even Tennyson's popularity did
mot equal that of Thackeray, and did
not come anywhere near that of Dickens.
NO one since his time has ever enjoyed
the popularity which was Dickens at
that time. He was generally surrounded
by a crowd Of young men who sincerely
WorsMpped him, and to whom, indeed, he
seemed to represent all literature. Kind
and friendly and encouraging as he al
ways was to young men, Mr. Mccarthy
acknowledges that somehow or other,
