1829 Sept. 13
Deontology Private

From the Examiner for Sunday Sept 13 1829.

Civility, charity, generosity, may sometimes
meet an ill return, but one person must
be benefited by their exercise; the kind
heart has its own abundant reward, whatever
be the gratitude of others. The care
of Ferguson shows that the seed does not
always fall on stony ground. It may appear
somewhat absurd to dwell upon the
benefit of a slight civility, which cost, at
most, but a few minutes of attention; but
if is really important that those who are
easy in the world,—who have all the advantages
of wealth and knowledge at
their command—should feel of how much
value is the slightest encouragement &
assistance to those who are toiling upon
the sleep of emulation. Too often “the
scoff of pride” is superadded to the “bar
of poverty;” and thus is it that many a
one of the best talent and the most
generous feelings.

“Has sunk? Into the grave unpitied & unknown,”
because the wealthy and powerful have
never understand the value of a helping
hand with him who is struggling with fortune.

How many are there who, without any intention
of unkindness, would have carelessly
refused poor Ferguson, greedily thirsting
for knowledge, the devized view of the machinery
of the watch. And how many more would have
been incapable of affording the explanation
of its works! What a lesson of humanity, &
of the advantages of every degree of knowledge,
is conveyed in this beautiful example!
