He is separated far more widely by his wealth from the workmen, whom he patronises, than the meanest day-labourer in England from the dukes to whom he is supposed to bend the knee; and if Mr Carnegie's be the fine flower of American Liberty, we need hardly regret that ours is of another kind.
But what affected me in the most lively manner was the wealth of this day-labourer, paying a two months' pleasure visit to the States, and preparing to return in the saloon, and the new testimony rendered by his story, not so much to the horrors of the steerage as to the habitual comfort of the working classes.
The letter carried by the boy said that the writer first took charge of him, as an infant, in 1812, and had never let him 'take a single step out of my house.... I have already taught him to read and write, and he writes my handwriting exactly as I do. In the same hand was a letter in Latin characters, purporting to come from Kaspar's mother, 'a poor girl, as the author of the German letter was 'a poor day-labourer. Humbug as I take Kaspar to have been, I am not sure that he wrote these pieces.
One of the most proud, numerous, and fierce bodies of nobility and gentry ever known in the world, arranged only in the foremost rank of free and generous citizens. Not one man incurred loss, or suffered degradation. All, from the King to the day-labourer, were improved in their condition. Everything was kept in its place and order, but in that place and order everything was bettered.
We do not mean, however, to express any doubt that the regulations of the Licinian laws, such as they were, might and did substantially benefit the small farmer and the day-labourer.
Then, I suppose I got used to it. Of course, if I had had any adventurousness in me, I should have gone off and become a day-labourer or anything but I am not that sort of person. "That went on till I was about thirty-three and then quite suddenly, and without any warning, I had my experience.
We may suppose a philosophical day-labourer, who is happy in reflecting that, by his labour, he contributes to the fertility of the earth, and to the support of his fellow-creatures; but we find no such philosophical day-labourer. A merchant may, perhaps, be a man of an enlarged mind; but there is nothing in trade connected with an enlarged mind.
On the other hand, that adhesive and tenacious stratum which has now filled up the interstices between the sciences Journalism believes it has a mission to fulfil here, and this it does, according to its own particular lights that is to say, as its name implies, after the fashion of a day-labourer. "It is precisely in journalism that the two tendencies combine and become one.
A man only needs one dinner a day, a place to sleep in and ordinary clothes to wear very little money is required for the actual necessaries of life enough can be earned by any day-labourer. As for fame whosoever reads the life of even one 'famous' man will never be such a fool as to wish for the capricious plaudits of a fool-public. And love! love does not exist not what I call love!" "Oh!
He will live out His life through the mother in the home, through the day-labourer in the pit, through the business man in his office—everywhere. Paul multiplies figures here. The first figure is taken from the tree shooting its roots down deep into the earth and taking fast hold upon it. The second figure is taken from a great building with its foundations laid deep in the earth on the rock.
