The stories are , not p . n , a level ^ ith each qther . Sprn # ftfe far children , some for full-grown schoolboys . It is true that stories may be given , which , from their deep fgun {} a . tiQn jn human rmture , are calculated for all ages , cMdhqQ& , youth , manhood ; hut these are not such ; triey are especi ally for different ages , Qpe of the tales , the longest in the book , is an accpuni pi | he wild prnnjfs . pf a college youth of sixteen- —prning , drinking , and swearing . It is true he repents ^ and becomes eyeryfhing his excellent mother
could wish ; such i § the power of early implanteiJ religious prjfirciple ; but we object that any little ones , who would beentertained by some of the younger stories shoult ) hear of such wickedness among older boys . They rpay not understand it all , but we can never know how rrjUch a child does uncjerstana . We still more object to the tale entitled ' The Child ' s Trust in Danger . ' The iutroductory remarks are adrair ^ We , but uristiited to yourjg children . The tale it § elf though it is sai (| to b § < . founded on the
writer ' s own experience ; ' , is ( we say it wt intending any failure ir ? courtesy ) incredible ^ if we understand it ; but can the authcir mean to intimate that i child pf six years received a sudiJen , it must be supernataral , conviction of a superintending Frovitdence ? So we infer from the tale , And still ,, the child ' s Father calls belief in Providence Christian superstitian ! It is a tale for Mr Irving and his prophets . Further , we cannot tell why young children should be taught that there are any persons who do not believe in the existence of God-. It can do thern no goad : it
may do them harm . We shpuld be glacj to see this volume Ver printed in England , in two volumes , ' The Child ' s Trust in panger / being left out of both . We wish we had room to extract the * Dialogue on the Death of a Child / It is heautiful ^ affectmg , true \ it is worth whole volumes of exhortations to the religious education of children , Jt is a hply commeritary upon the holy words already quoted , * Suffer little chiitlren to come ur ^ to \ $$ .
