THE CALCUTTA REVIEW

THE

CALCUTTA REVIEW.

VOLUME LXII.

1876.

EDITED BY E. LETHBRIDGE, M. A.

No man who hath tasted learning but will confess the many ways of
profiting by those who, not contented with stale receipts, are able to manage
and set forth new positions to the world: and, were they but as the dust
and cinders of our feet, so long as in that notion they may yet serve to polish
and brighten the armoury of truth, even for that respect they were not utter
ly to be cast away.-MILTON.
