A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Christian civilisation and power, there, with a population of some three hundred millions, there is but one-fourth the amount of crime that there is each year in England, with a population of some twenty mil Uons, and only a fraction of what it is in the United States, with a population of not more than one-fourth the population of I ndia. These are most significant facts; they are mdeed facts of tremendous import, and we would do wisely to estimate them at their proper value. We cannot begin too early in inculcating what I would term humane sentiments in the mind and heart of every individual. How early and almost unconsciously the mother, for example, gives the first lessons of thoughtlessness, carelessness, and what will eventually result in cruelty or even crime, to her child. The child is put upon the hobby-horse, a whip is put into his little hand, and he is told :N ow whip the old horse and make him go. With this initial lesson, continued in various ways, we find the eager desire the child has for whipping, when he gets the whip into his hands in a waggon behind a real horse.
