Today. in the Herald and Examiner, we have Brisbane--just such another man of rounded education as Mark Hopkins. We must stop thinking of Brisbane merely as a writer. He is probably the greatest educator of our period. He has what so few men, including even most of our college professors, have been able to acquire --a rounded education.
