Rusell from the French of G. Vallart i the Revue ies” Dews Moisdes of Marcl PART I On the Gth 6f Fevruary, 1881, there died at Chelsea, in the suburbs of London, an En- glish, or rather a Scoteh, writer who had en- tered his 86th year, Iis task had been long completed. Some men of genius possess the gift of immortal youth, the precious faculty of metamorplosis, and of unexpeeted devel- opment: experience makes them wise; they ripen without becoming old, and thus as it were changze their lives many times. Thomas Carlyle exhibited his' full powers in his tirst books, and since then he has scarcely added to the stock of ideas which he acquired in his youth. Itmay besaid that he outlived his genius, and that nothing would be deducted from his fame if the writing of his later years were entizely suppressed. Still his death has created a sensation in England; his splendid services are remem- Dbered, as are also the influence of his charac- ter and the pusity of hislite. Ile has been famented as if in the beginning of his career. But latterly that once eloquent tongne spoke only to repeat itselt; and it generally hap- pens that in repeating a thought it is either strained or spoiled; yet it is rizht that the people should honor the man who has hon- ored them, and in consideration of past serv- ices to pardon the errors of old age. From 1835 to 1500 there was not o more re- markavle literary man in England than Car- Iyle; none possessed more influence or em- pire over men’s minds. 1le wasat the snme time a writer, a historian, and a thinker; as a writer he was admived and held sway; as o historizn he was largely read; he was the centre of a literary cirele, and his disciples regarded him as an oracle. Butif it be true that an author ouzht to have as many differ- ent styles ax he has subjects, Carlyle was certainly not a great writer. - Iis style was always the same; it belonged solely to him- self; it was simply Cariyle 1le brought into every subject the saume style and tone; even the same accent and oratorical gesture, for he gesticulated much. [le was prodigal of exclamation and absurd fizures of speech. No matter what he spoke about he mounted the rostrum; he ranted, and, with forchead enveloped in a cloud outof which shot light- nings,—full of the god that agitated him, he stamped and stormed like a_sybil. When ol has T a good deal of Carlyle, it is a reliet to read three or four pages of Vol- t yLils are frequently” admirable, but they affeet us too much and we soon tire of their Zest ting eloquence.
