THOMAS CAEM
TilKSAGU OF UHKI.SKA DEAD AT THE
KII'K AGE OF J-.IUUTY-SIX YE.lllS,
HIS LIFE, WORKS AND INFLUENCE.
Tlie Career or a PJiilosepber Who Leaves a
Deep Impression en Aleilrrn Thought.
Themas CavIyJe was a contributor te the
Londen Megazinc as Ien;j age as 1S24. He
was born at Ecelefeehan, Dumfricsliire,
Scetlaml, en the 4th of December, lTD.Ii.
lie was a fellow student with Edward Ir
vinir, who was tiircc years elder than liim-
sclf, at Edinburgh. When IS years old he
became an assistant teacher at Kirkcaldy,
where, he used te say, he and Irving
" strove by virtue of birch and book te in
itiate the urchins into what is called the
rudiments of learning."' Although des
tined by his parents for the ministry, and
studying for a time with that design, he
found that reading and study had led him
away from the faith of his lathers, and he
abandoned the notion of becoming a
preacher, Jlewasan ardent student al
ways, and while acting as tutor in a pri
vate family made himself master of the
German language and literature. He
wrote an "Essay en Proportion," which
wasprclixcd te a translation of Legendre'.s
geometry. His "Life of Schiller"' was
published in the Londen Magazine. He
translated Geetiie's " AVilhelm Meistcr"
in 1824, "Specimens of German Kemancc"
in 1827, and furnished many biographies
from time te time te the Edinburgh Ciclo Cicle
pcdiit. His miscellanies were collected by
Kaiph Walde Emersen, and published in
this country in 1845. i
In 1831 Caijylc took with him te Londen
his book "Sartor Re&artus,? and vainly
endeavored te sell it. He at length jret it
published in Frazcr's Magazine, but it was
net until years aftciward that it was fully
appreciated. Carlyle's work. "The French
Revolution," was published in 18:'7, and
became noted for its novel method of pre
senting history. His essay en " Charac
teristics"" was issued in 1831. He pub
lished a work en "Chartwm" in 181t, en
"Here Worship" in 1SI0. and " Past and
Present" iiilSl:.
Mr. Carlyle's complete works comprise
nearly forty volumes. He wrote volumin
ously for the FiUnlmrgJi Jieticw and the
Foreign Quarterly. His " Count Caglios Caglies Caglios
tre"' and "Diamond Necklace' weie not
able. He published "Letters and Speeches
of Oliver Cromwell" in IS 15, a scries of
attcr Day Pamphlets" in lS"i(), a "Life
of.Tehu Sterling" in 1851, and a " History
of Frederick the Great," the last volume
of which was published in 1SG1. His inau
gural addte.vs in 1800, when he was elected
in his G5th year te the presidency of his
beloved Edinburgh university, was re
printed almost all ever the world. ,
Carlyle was married in 1820 te Jan.!
Welch, of Craigcnputtech, where she
owned a small estate, en which he lived
for a time. There for six years, among
granite hille and black morasses, fifteen
miles from a town, he read and wrote in
peace. His wife claimed te be , lineal de
scendant of Jehn Knox. He lived many
happv years with her and te the last el"
his life never ceased his frequent pilgrim
ages te her grave.
Cnas. A. Dana's ::i!lej;y.
New Yerk Sun.
What Carlyle would have been had his
life been contemporary with that storm
and stress period of which he made him
self the eulogist, we can guess by recall
ing what Rinhter was. There was. in
deed, a surprising likeness in the gifts,
acquirements, ethical convictions, and ar
tistic methods of the two men, and an
equally curious coincidence was disclosed
in their fei tunes and careers. IJeth were
the sons of peer men, and betii wen for
themselves, at the cost of net a little
harsh toil and privation, a university edu
cation. Jleth were omnivorous rather
than sympathetic- readers, and of both it
might be said that, te the last, they had
never nuhiened for themselves a definite,
coherent system of philosophy. i'eth
were constrained, for a long- time, te eke
eat a subsistence by the trade of school
master, and both gained but a tardy rec
ognition from publisheis or readers,
owing te their intensely empha
sized and grotesque originality.
Beth wrote prose, but both were
poet in the loftiest and deepest meaning
of the word. Se far as each bore a mes
sage te his time he spoke as a bard
rather than a philosopher, as a prophet and
net as a lawgiver. Each exhibited a con
tempt of conventional forms and ac
cepted caiii-.ns of ait which hud never been
parallelled in literature save by llabelias,
and each combined with a boundless humor
net unworthy of the creator of "Gargan
tua" an exquisitivc sensilivcneMs te sor
row, and a heart-piercing pathe.? of which
their jovial Fecnch forerunner had exhibit
ed no sign. That Carlyle was a student and
disciple of J. 'an Paul, that he strove te
supplement and develop:', spiritual affinity
by conseiom assimilation, is sufficiently
obvious te the most casual reader. That
there was, however, no question here of
servile imitation, but that the younger
man's relation te Ilichtcr suggests rather
the intercommunications of equal souls,
is plain from the fiec play which Carlyle
gave te his own temperament, and from
his fundamentally distinct attitude and
point of view. The German was by nature
as genial and gleesome as the Scotchman
was grim and saturnine ; there war, some
thing spertful in the gleams of the former's
irony cempaied with the excoriating
strokes of the hitter's sarcasm. There
was something joyous, sanguine, hopeful,
in Hichter's giance, as well became one
who had witnessed the upheaval of his
nation under Stein and llardcnbarg, and
watched the unfolding of that Iliad whose
climax came at Lcipsie. Kidder's last
years, like Carlyle's were shattered and
cleumlcd by physical decay, and the au
thor of " Titan"' can scarcely be said te
have beheld the pitiful extinction of the
dream which had premised a free Ger
many. It would have been impossible for Car
lyle, had he been naturally less sembre
and splenetic, te Ikive turned a cheerful
and complacent eye en the England for
which he began te write. When, about
18'M, "Satter JJssartus" was contributed
te Frazcr's Magazine, the combative period
which culminated at Waterloo had long
been ever, and the industrial period was
in the full tide of covetous, accumulative
energy. The reaction against the strain
and outpour, the tremendous sacrifices
and dear-bought glories of the Napoleonic
era, had then in fact readied its height.
It was essentially a recuperative interval,
during which exhausted England took ac
count of stock, but, by comparison, it
looked te the ireful vision of the Scotch
cni husiast net only a prosaic, but a shabby,
sordid, impotent and despicable age. With
the aims, sentiments, standards, and arbi
ters of such a time Catlylc had net a
trace of sympathy. He lifted up his
voice iu outcry and reared his arm against
them all ; he made it the business of his
life te thwack the fulminate against the
philosophy of Bentham and what he
deemed its ignominious outcome in society
and legislation. On the ether hand he
strove te probe the heart and fire the
bleed by an eloquence that often lacked
but the form te rival the master works of
epic loftiness and lyric power, an elo
quence that seemed te range through the
whole gamut of emotion, new quivering
with tragic griff, new searing te dim
heights of solemn aspiration, and new
rioting in grim yet contagious raillery.
Ner should we forget that the ideals
which may new seem erratic
and one-sided, but which Carlyle
never wearied of upholding and enforcing
by all the means in his I arge grasp by
history, biography, critical essay, and
political pamphlet were admirably adapt
ed te control and discredit the tendencies
of his day. It was, as we have said, an
age when men looked rather le utility
than te ideal perfection, when thev
thought mere of craft than force, when
they cared less for power than money,
when the peer did net seau tee narrowly
the instruments of wealth, and when the
rich were apt te account their weik fin
ished, and te watch the tragic comedy of
jiie wun n.stie?s unconcern, neither was
the epoch of the Chartists and the Cern
law agitation the only modern period
marked by commonplace and ignoble fea
tures. In the world about us we may
recognize-net a few of the same traits ;
and while this remains true, the teachings
of Themas Carlyle, which smote the ears
of his own age like a clarion, will lese lit
tle of their pertinence and power.
Anether Neble Tribute.
Philadelphia Times.
He toiled for a long time as Milten toil
ed, as Bacen toiled, as Lecke toiled, guid
ed only by his own overmastering instinct
of the Ged-given mission fecundating his
theugnt, upholding his Hunting courage.
He was during the first fifty years of his
life the epitome and full consummate real
ization of his own definition of genius.
The power te work, te give attention te
details, te be as accurate "in the color of a
man's complexion, . iu art, as iu tracing
the heredity that shaped his trait" His
pictures of men come before the reader as
clearly cut, as minutely fashioned in out
line, as a portrait of Titian or Velasquez.
I lis Mirabcau, Cromwell, Frederick, La
fayette, Luther Burns and Rebespierre
will coexist with the language in which
they are written. Truth, and tfiat insti
lled, was his mission, but truth te liim was
a l)eaeen el constantly changing lights.
Nene but the strong steed fully in its
white glare, but once uuJer its effulgent
luinineusucss no defects appeared te the
blinded eyes of the worshiper. Iu ether
words, force, the strong man, moving en
a heroic plane, with trampled peoples and
overturned systems as the irtighty frame
work of their action. He began, the apos
tle of progress iu the widest s,cnse, the
ally of reform, the evangel of humanity.
H ended the advocate endowed beyond
any ether thinker of his lime, the Abdiel
of reaction, the panegyrist of bleed and
iron, the bondsman of force.
He began his teachings with perhaps the
clearest insight into the history of the past
of any man who has written since St. Paul.
He was near the woes of the race as he
set out, but day by day battling hosts
arose and they seemed net only te dim his
vision but chill the ardor of his soul for
the things'that had at first fired his pen.
The conquest of peoples by great became
his ideal of force in action. The revolt of
peoples against wairiers and systems of
tyranny became te him the " infinite
babblement'' of feels. The tremendous
outburst of the French Revolution
at first fascinated him, but the
very intensity of what Bacen calls
the "dry light" of history, which
his n-,vn band ha i lit, brought out only the
most balefii! actors for the contemplation
and admiration of mankind. It would be
difficult te set bounds te the majesty of
his intellectual march in dealing with the
occult in history. It would be net less
difficult te point out the real tendency, con
trasting his. earlier with his later aims.
His life-work, like that of a great tumul
tuous river, cannot be told while the an
gry, swirling billows of its force are still
flowing en, deafening as well as dazzling
the beholder. The noblest maxims of life,
the most austere cede of morals, the most
inspiring incentives te action, may be found
in every chapter he has written. These
are brought into the most incongruous ap
position, te the most mournful prostration
before the veiled gods of absolutism, mys
ticism an.! kin j craft. The whole life life
theituht. of his later years was devoted te
the teaching that the people, like the
children of Israel, had sinned from their
very nature and that it was the will of
Ged that a king that R a force should
be sc-t in perpetuity ever them. He went
much further than the prophet who gave
Israel a king as punishment ; he set the
king up as i he be all and end all as the sign
an 1 token of a well-ordered system. Yet
even in these teachings he was as grandly
inconsistent as he was grandly bold in
turning back the mighty current of his
own iir.st overwhelming maelstrom of
though'. Indeed, a ma'.-'strem is the one
object in nature that the man's vast life
work may he likened te. it, hjh no insin
iiiii;j :usl no end ; the truths I hat sire helil
en the topmost, crest of its swift-rushing
current at one moment sink .submerged the
next under the crested breakers of para
dox, contradiction and denial, only 'te rc rc
cmcrjje :!..; tin ei a broader circle and in
calmer sweps clarified by temporary sub sub
nier.sieu. The evil that t lie ordinary man
may d lives ai'ter him and Hie geed is apt
te hn interred with his bones. It will net
be se with Carlyle ; his evil will serve te
threw into mere imposing outlines the
geed, which shall live, as long after him as
human .speech is the medium of thought
as long as the teachings of Plate or Aris
totle and with a hundredfold their force.
CAKLYLK'S IXDl'STKV.
Tlie Accident t "Tlic freneli ircvidutlen."
In ISrJT Carlyle published "The French
devolution; a History."' it.; publication
was delayed by the accidental burning of
the lir-sl volume just as it was ready for
the printers. Culyle had lent the matui
.script of the iir.st volume te Jehn Stttatt
Mill, who carried it te Jlr.s. Tayler, the
lady whom he afterwards nianUd. liy
some strange areidmfc it w;::- left exposed,
aud a stupid servant lighted the liies with
it. When the author itcatd of this mis
fortune, he was like :i man be.-ide himself,
as there was scarcely a page of the manu
script left. Sitting down at the table, he
strove te collect his thoughts. :n:d began
te rewrite, but only te run his pen through
each page as it was liuished. lJeggcdly
persevering, however, Carlyle tinis-hed the
volume at last, after five months" labor.
Carlyle, had however, no reproaches for
the friend who had caused him the trouble.
5ut he describes the work el rewriting
that volume as one prolonged agony. lie
undertook the taslc at once, but failed
through severe mental depression. lie
then devoted several weeks te novel read
ing as a relaxation aud se finally succeeded
in reproducing the book. A friend of Car
lyle, in an article upon the burning of the
volume, says :
"After tive mouths of perseverence he
rewrote it, having calmed himself suffi
ciently by reading all the novels of Capt.
Marryatt. This second production he pro
nounced afterwards as better than the
first. His own account of his feelings at
the time is both humorous and sad. 'There
was scarcely a page of manuscript left,' he
says. ' I sat down at the table and strove
te collect my thoughts and te commence
my work again. I filled page after page,
but ran the pen through every line as the
page was finished. Thus was it for many
a weary day until, at length, as I sat
by the window, half-hearted and de
jected, my eye .wandered along ever
acres of reefs,I saw a man standing upon a
scaffold engaged in building a wall the
wall of a house. With a trowel Jie'd lay
a great splash of mortar upon the last
layer, aud then brick after brick would
be deposited en this, striking each with
the butt of his trowel, as if te give it his
bcuedictien and farewell ; and all the
while singing or whistling as blithe as a
lark. And in my spleen I said te myself,
" Peer feel ! Hew canst thou be se merry
under such a bile-spotted atmosphere as
this, aud everything rushing into the re
gions of the insane ?" and then I bethought
me. and I said te myself, " Peer feel thou,
rather, that sittcst here by the window
whining and complaining." ' The result
was that he began te pick up courage ; he
rcau light literature te induce a proper
vacuity of mind, and in course of time
things came out all right."
