The Frenchmen had fogotten all about thw danger, and were chattering gaily, the Englishmen had just begun to feel it, and one had a nervous breakdown and was obliged to go to bed. We have here a clear physical difference between the two races-a difference that goes deep into character. The Frenchmen responded at once,the Englishmen responded in time . They were slow and they were also practical. Their instinct forbade them to throw themselves about in the coach ,because it was more likely to tip over if they did. They had this extraordinary appreciation of fact that we shall notice again and again. When a disaster comes, the English instinct is to do what can be done first, and to postpone the feeling as long as possible. Hence they are splendid at emergencies .No doubt they are brave -no one will deny that - but bravery is partly and affair of the nerve, and the English nervous system is well equipped for meeting a physical emergency. It acts promptly and feels slowly .Such a combination is fruitful, and anyone who possesses it had gone a long way toward being brave, and when the action is over, then the Englishman can feel.
