“ Do you read Ruskin's Fors Clavigera, which he cheerily tells me gets itself reprinted in America? If you don't,do, I advise you. Also hisMunera Pulveris, Oxtord-Lectures on Art, and whatever else he is now writing,—if you can manage to get them (which is difficult here, owing to the ways he has towards the bibliopolic world!). There is nothing going on among us as notable to me as those fierce lightning-bolts Ruskin is copiously and desperately pouring into the black world of Anarchy all around him. No other man in England that I meet has in him the divine rage against iniquity, falsity, and baseness that Ruskin has, and that every man ought to have.”
