Paragraphs...

Besant describing the middle class of the 9th century wrote “In the first place it was for more a class apart. "In no sense did it belong to society. Men in professions of any kind (except in the Army and Navy) could only belong to society by right of birth and family connections; men in trade—bankers were still accounted tradesmen—could not possibly belong to society. That is to say, if they went to live in the country they were not called upon by the county families and in the town they were not admitted by the men into their clubs or by ladies into their houses… The middle class knew its own place, respected it, made its own society for itself, and cheerfully accorded to rank the deference due."

Since then, however, the life of the middle classes had undergone great changes as their numbers had swelled and their influence had increased. Their already well –developed consciousness of their own importance had deepened. More critical than they had been in the past of certain aspects of aristocratic life, they were also more concerned with the plight of the poor and the importance of their own values of society, thrift, hand work, piety and respectability thrift, hand work, piety and respectability as examples of ideal behavior for the guidance of the lower orders. Above all they were respectable. There were divergences of opinion as to what exactly was respectable and what was not. There were, nevertheless, certain conventions, which were universally recognized: wild and drunker behaviors were certainly not respectable, nor were godlessness or avert promiscuity, not an ill-ordered home life, unconventional manners, self-indulgence or flamboyant clothes and personal adornments.


Preci:
The middle class of 19th century


Besant described middle class of 19th century as socially marginalized. Men of any profession except army and navy did not belong to society. The men and women were not called upon in any kind of social gatherings. Therefore, conscious of their importance they formed a society. However, middle class expanded and underwent great changes subsequently. The awareness of miseries of poor and their values made them respectable. Though they had differences as to what was respectable and what was not, they had conviction that alcoholism, ill-mannered life and provocative attire were generally unrespectable.

I will say that your title is wrong to begin with. It should be Evolution of the middle class. 19th century is only discussed in the first paragraph, the rest is about the growth of the middle class after that.
