something more than that. Out of 33
recruits, of various trades, there are four
shoemakers, and no less than five tailors,
whilst the number of shoe-makers is
equalled only by that of the bakers. Here
is one more fact in proof of the martial

makers ; especially tailors: a fact in
singular contradiction to the antiquated
idea, which imputed peculiar meekness
and pusillanimity to those craftsmen.
That bakers should form a comparatively large proportion of
recruits is not surprising: they are in a measure inured to ser-
vice by having to stand fire: but what it is that inflames _ the
breast of the shoemaker and tailor, particularly, with military
ardour, philosophy fails to discover. The suggestion that the
shoemaker, from the material on which he operates, derives a fancy
for leathering the enemies of his country, appears far fetched, and
little better can be said for the supposition, that the tailor has con-
stantly an object in view which inspires him with a desire to cook
their goose.
