Description

Excerpt from Rank and Talent, Vol. 3: A Novel Singleton Sloper is a lazy, ignorant lob, and Dr. Crack is a conceited puppy; but in neither of these two do we discern any thing at all equivalent in moral turpitude to that efi'emi nate, that more than unmanly, that almost inhuman selfishness that disgraces, or ra ther constitutes, the character of Tippetson. This young gentleman had learned by rote the common places of polished society, and he played them off with a vile, cunning dexterity on the simple Clara Rivolta, till she was almost deceived as to his character. Her mind had been injured, though uninten tionally, by the trumpery sentimentality of Miss Henderson's foolish correspondence. The circumstances, also, of Mr. Martindale's odd ness of character, of Signora Rivolta's retired habits, and of the Colonel's general indifference to every thing, allowed to Clara but little op portunity of seeing or learning the world and its moral elements.
