The Duty of Humanity to Inferior Creatures is a well-written

and well-meant little work, entirely thrown away. Who is there, possessed of the refinements of education, and the cultivated sym- pathies of social life, who uses the inferior creatures ill ?—but it is among such alone that the book will fall. The only hope in this and so many other matters, is—the education of the poor classes : teach them to be rational and sober, and there will be an end of cruelty.
