ENGLAND AND THE ENGLISH.

Lytton, Edward Heange Foric Sytton Bucover-button, ist to ́o

"Ordine gentis

Mores, et studia, et populos, et prælia dicam."-Virgil.

"Every now and then we should examine ourselves; self-amendment is the offspring of self-
knowledge. But foreigners do not examine our condition; they only glance at its surface.
Why should we print volumes upon other countries, and be silent upon our own? Why traverse
the world, and neglect the phenomena around us? Why should the spirit of our researches be a
lynx in Africa and a mole in England? Why, in one word, should a nation be never criticised
by a native?"-Montagu.
