You may see clever, educated, literary men, with no conduct whatever,--wasteful, improvident, drunken, and vicious.

Nor has the poverty of the people so much to do with their social degradation as is commonly supposed.

The question is essentially a moral one.

If the income of the labouring community could be suddenly doubled, their happiness will not necessarily be increased; for happiness does not consist in money.

In fact, the increased wages might probably prove a curse instead of a blessing.
