Cabbage Vs Men
Theodore Parker says, the cultivation of man is as noble and
praiseworthy a science, as the cultivation of cabbage, or the garden
sass! Says brother Theodore, "You don't cast garden-seed in the mire,
over the rough broken ground, and exhibit your benefits. No, you dig,
level, rake, and then sow your seed, you give them sunshine and water,
you tear out the weeds that would choke your infant vegetables--why
would you do less for the material man?" Pre-cisely! we pause for an
answer, proposals received from the learned--until we go to press.
