 army marched into Poland, the valor of the Russian soldiers did not appear inferior to that of the Prussians, at that time supposed to be the hardiest and most experienced veterans in Europe. The Russian empire, however, had enjoyed a profound peace for near twenty years before, and could at that time have very few soldiers who had ever seen an enemy. When the Spanish war broke out in 1739, England had enjoyed a profound peace for about eight-and-twenty years. The valor of her soldiers, however, far from being corrupted by that long peace, was never more distinguished than in the attempt upon Carthagena, the first unfortunate exploit of that unfortunate war. In a long peace the generals, perhaps, may sometimes forget their skill; but, where a well-regulated standing army has been kept up, the soldiers seem never to forget their valor.

When a civilized nation depends for its defence upon a militia, it is at all times exposed to be conquered by any barbarous nation which happens to be in its neighborhood. The frequent conquests of all the civilized countries in Asia by the Tartars, sufficiently demonstrates the natural superiority, which the militia of a barbarous, has over that of a civilized nation. A well-regulated standing army is superior to every militia. Such an army, as it can best be maintained by an opulent and civilized nation, so it can alone defend such a nation against the invasion of a poor and barbarous neighbor. It is only by means of a standing army, therefore, that the civilization of any country can be perpetuated, or even preserved for any considerable time.

As it is only by means of a well-regulated standing army that a civilized country can be defended, so it is only by means of it that a barbarous country can be suddenly and tolerably civilized. A standing army establishes,

 with an irresistible force, the law of the sovereign through the remotest provinces of the empire, and maintains some degree of regular government in countries which could not otherwise admit of any. Whoever examines, with attention, the improvements which Peter the Great introduced into the Russian empire, will find that they almost all resolve themselves into the establishment of a well-regulated standing army. It is the instrument which executes and maintains all his other regulations. That degree of order and internal peace, which that empire has ever since enjoyed, is altogether owing to the influence of that army.

Men of republican principles have been jealous of a standing army as dangerous to liberty. It certainly is so, wherever the interest of the general and that of the principal officers are not necessarily connected with the support of the constitution of the State. The standing army of Cæsar destroyed the Roman republic. The standing army of Cromwell turned the Long Parliament out of doors. But where the sovereign is himself the general, and the principal nobility and gentry of the country the chief officers of the army; where the military force is placed under the command of those who have the greatest interest in the support of the civil authority, because they have themselves the greatest share of that authority, a standing army can never be dangerous to liberty. On the contrary, it may in some cases be favorable to liberty. The security which it gives to the sovereign renders unnecessary that troublesome jealousy, which, in some modern republics, seems to watch over the minutest actions, and to be at all times ready to disturb the peace of every citizen. Where the security of the magistrate, though supported by the principal people of the country, is endangered by every popular discontent;

 where a small tumult is capable of bringing about in a few hours a great revolution, the whole authority of government must be employed to suppress and punish every murmur and complaint against it. To a sovereign, on the contrary, who feels himself supported, not only by the natural aristocracy of the country, but by a well regulated standing army, the rudest, the most groundless, and the most licentious remonstrances can give but little disturbance. He can safely pardon or neglect them, and his consciousness of his own superiority naturally disposes him to do so. That degree of liberty which approaches to licentiousness can be tolerated only in countries where the sovereign is secured by a well-regulated standing army. It is in such countries only that the public safety does not require that the sovereign should be trusted with any discretionary power, for suppressing even the impertinent wantonness of this licentious liberty.

The first duty of the sovereign, therefore, that of defending the society from the violence and injustice of other independent societies, grows gradually more and more expensive, as the society advances in civilization. The military force of the society, which originally cost the sovereign no expense either in time of peace or in time of war, must, in the progress of improvement, first be maintained by him in time of war, and afterward even in time of peace.

The great change introduced into the art of war by the invention of firearms has enhanced still further both the expense of exercising and disciplining any particular number of soldiers in time of peace, and that of employing them in time of war. Both their arms and their ammunition are become more expensive. A musket is a more expensive machine than a javelin or a bow and arrows; a cannon or

Page:The wealth of nations, volume 3.djvu/75

 a mortar, than a balista or a catapulta. The powder which is spent in a modern review, is lost irrecoverably, and occasions a very considerable expense. The javelins and arrows which were thrown or shot in an ancient one, could easily be picked up again, and were besides of very little value. The cannon and the mortar are, not only much dearer, but much heavier machines than the balista or catapulta, and require a greater expense, not only to prepare them for the field, but to carry them to it. As the superiority of the modern artillery, too, over that of the ancients is very great, it has become much more difficult, and consequently much more expensive, to fortify a town so as to resist, even for a few weeks, the attack of that superior artillery. In modern times many different causes contribute to render the defence of the society more expensive. The unavoidable effects of the natural progress of improvement, have, in this respect, been a good deal enhanced by a great revolution in the art of war, to which a mere accident, the invention of gunpowder, seems to have given occasion.

In modern war the great expense of firearms gives an evident advantage to the nation which can best afford that expense; and consequently, to an opulent and civilized, over a poor and barbarous nation. In ancient times the opulent and civilized found it difficult to defend themselves against the poor and barbarous nations. In modern times the poor and barbarous find it difficult to defend themselves against the opulent and civilized. The invention of firearms, an invention which at first sight appears to be so pernicious, is certainly favorable both to the permanence and to the extension of civilization.

 1, 1862] and then a faint fleeting smile passed over her face. It was over, I knew not how I got home again. It was a melancholy scene. The violent and uncontrolled grief of the poor sister - the savage looks and muttered threats of the brother-the prayers of the priest, and that poor insensible form, so deaf and blind to all the earthly agitation around her. So near yet so far! What could be done in the way of pecuniary help to the sister I did; she had no repugnanec to accept it. She saw how grieved I was, and she attributed the fatal end to cold caught on the Lagoon. I might have been unpardonably careless, but nothing more. The brother suspected more. A dark red suffised his face as I pressed my offers of service on him as on the rest of the family. He declined with an oath, and as I passed him he drew aside as if my touch was odions to him. At one time, such an event would have well nigh broken my heart-now, I was unhappy, I cursed fate, thought myself under an evil doom, which entailed guilt upon me without any sin of my -own, and that was all. This rebellious bitterness of feeling left a corroding power, which served still further to deteriorate and weaken my already perverted nature.

a single line, in the smallest type, used in obscure corners of American newspapers, there is now conveyed to as one of the most significant and portentous incidents of our time. Probably not one reader in a thousand of the few English readers of American journals will have taken any particular notice of that single line which will be immortal as history, however carelessly passed over to-day as news. "We pray for the slave." In order to understand its full significance, we must cast a brief glance backwards to certain incidents of a quarter of a century ago.

In 1835, Mr. Calhoun, the honest fanatic—not to say monomaniac—on behalf of Slavery, was telling European visitors, and New England citizens whom he chanced to meet, that the subject of Slavery would never be introduced in Congress. He was told that he might as well undertake to hedge in Orion and the Pleiades as lock up from popular use any topic of essential interest. He was positive, however; and no man's words went further with his generation. Slavery was a fundamentally necessary institution; republican liberties depended upon it; yet (or therefore), the subject would never be discussed in Congress. Within two years the roof of the Capitol rang with the shouts and cries of those who chose to speak on slavery and those who did not choose to hear. Ex-president Adams (father of the American Minister now in London), spoke upon it day after day, presenting petitions from the Abolitionists, and refusing to be put down, but with the right of petition itself. That right was put down: but it could not be for long: and before Mr. Calhoun died there was no day of the session on which something was not said about Slavery; and no subject was introduced, however remote, which did not issue in a discussion of the dreaded topic. In dying, Mr. Calhoun declared his country lost. He had failed to preclude dangerous discussion; slavery was doomed, and the Republic with it.

While he was confident that the subject would never be mentioned in the Capitol, the clergy of the Free States were certain that it would never be spoken of from the pulpit. A New England clergyman, however, even at that day, made the unheard of venture of praying for the slaves. It should be understood that all religious denominations there enter into a fuller detail of the kinds and conditions of men for whom they pray than is usual here; and the slaves have been the only class omitted. The Reverend Samuel J. May, then of Massachusetts, was supposed to be the first who supplied the omission; and his name will be preserved for the act. Next, a man of a very high quality did the same brave deed;—Dr. Follen, the learned Professor, the accomplished scholar, the nearest friend of Dr. Channing, the man known as a patriot in his native Germany, as a Christian divine in England, and in America from that moment as an abolitionist. One winter night he preached in Boston, and his prayer that night thrilled through the city, and overthrew the prospects of his life. After intercession for all orders of public men, and for sufferers under various woes, the words occurred, "We pray for the miserable, degraded, insulted slave, in chains of iron and chains of gold." From that hour the pulpits of Boston were closed to him; and Dr. Channing suffered keenly from the refusal of his flock to allow his friend to preach in his church. The scandalised clergy taught, and the public accepted the teaching, that they had Scripture for their guide, because they were "if possible, as much as lay in them, to live peaceably with all men; and silence was the only way to peace and quiet where slavery was in question.—Things had so far changed in twenty years (which is a mere span in the great spaces of history), that, when the long-free negro, Anthony Burns, was awaiting his fate in Boston, and was to know next day whether he was to be returned into slavery, and craved the prayers of all Christians, his request was, in some pulpits, noticed and allowed. Some of the Boston clergy did, and some did not, invite the prayers of their congregation for him. That was seven years ago; and the progress of opinion and feeling must have been much more rapid since; for we now see,—what it would have killed Mr. Calhoun outright to have foreknown,—that intercession for the slave has found a place in the prayers of Congress.

On the opening of the present session in the House of Representatives, there was solemn and special prayer, as at the opening of each session; and the specifications were as numerous as they ever are. Among them may be seen for the first time the words, "We pray for the slave." The abolitionists who have laboured in faith that this hour must come, when the slave should be openly admitted into fellowship with men and citizens, must read these few words with strong emotion. They understand the full import of this conversion of a chattel into a man who needs special prayers;

''5 The spiritual kinship established during Baptism or Confirmation, between one who baptizes, or confirms, with the baptized, or confirmed, and their Father or Mother. And that is the same as that of the Godfather, or Godmother with the one had in Baptism, or Confirmation, with their Father, or Mother: this does not reach, nor should this be extended, to any other.''

 mined from measurements made on a G. E. spec- trophotometer equipped with a GAF-Librascope Tristimulus Integrator [8, 12]. The specular com- ponent of the reflected radiant energy was excluded. Munsell renotations were determined by Mr. Gran- ville for both sides of the chips. Synonyms were limited to those in which the two color names were applied to only one colored chip. Only one colored chip is listed to illustrate each ISCC-NBS equivalent to a TKG color name, and wherever possible one whose ISCC-NBS equivalent applied to both the glossy and matte sides was chosen. The letters g, m, or gm refer to the glossy side, to the matte side, and to both sides of the chip, respectively. The ISCC- NBS designations were read by us and checked by Mr. Granville. 9.13. Textile Color Card Association of the United States The color cards of the Textile Color Card Associa- tion of the United States, Margaret Hayden Rorke, Secretary and Managing Director [60], are widely used in the textile and allied industries and by many procuring agencies of the Federal Government. The Textile Color Card Association issues both seasonal and standard color cards. The seasonal cards pro- vide a color forecasting service to textile manufac- turers and promote color coordination among the trades; the standard cards present colors for which there is a popular and continuing demand. Most important of the color cards is the Standard Color Card of America, the current ninth edition contain- ing 216 colors. Preeminent among the many special sets of color cards issued by the Association for use of the Federal Government is the United States Army Color Card showing 22 official colors for the arms and services. The colors of the Standard Color Card of America and the United States Army Color Card were measured at the National Bureau of Stand- ards during a four-year research project financed by the TCCA, and the results have been published [54]. The ISCC-NBS color designations given in the pres- ent dictionary were obtained directly from the Munsell renotations contained in this publication, and have been checked by Mrs. Rorke. 10. Description of the Alphabetical List of Color Names Section 15 is the heart of the color names diction- ary. It is an alphabetized list of the color names from all of the sources studied. Each color name is followed by a letter (A, B, F, and so on) identifying the source, by the corresponding ISCC-NBS color designation abbreviated according to figure 2 and table 1, and finally by a number showing where to find the designation in section 14. Synonymous color names (those defined by reference to the same colored sample) are indented under the main color name, such as Foliage Green under Absinthe [Green]. Where a synonymous color name is found in the table, it will be followed by a reference to the main color name, such as Acajou (same as Laurel Oak). Where more than one ISCC-NBS color designation is used to describe a color name, it indicates either that more than one colored sample was used to define that color name such as Aerugineus, or that the Munsell notation of the single colored sample used to define that color name, such as Acacia (M), fell on a color-names boundary. TT-C-595 agency abbre- viations are given at the beginning of sections 14 and 15. Many of the color names consist of two or more words. The color name is alphabetized according to the first word unless that word is clear, artificial, genuine, imitation, transparent, dusky or any of the ISCC-NBS modifiers. In these cases, the name is alphabetized according to the second word. If the word following the one alphabetized is a color name itself, the name is cross indexed as, Almond, Burnt (see Burnt Almond), or Brown, Dark Red (see Dark Red Brown). The spelling of several color names varies from one source to another. Gray is spelled with an "e" in Maerz and Paul (except for Chicadee Gray, Fashion Gray, and Pearl Gray), Horticulture, and in one color name in the Ninth Standard Color Card, Pearl Grey. It is Wistaria in M, R, and T but Wisteria in P and H; it is Wedgwood, the correct spelling, in M and T but Wedgewood in R. M has Ochre and Ocher but R has Ocher only, M spells it Castilian but P Castillian and M has both Daffodil Yellow and Daffodile [Yellow]. In section 15 the spelling of each color name is reproduced exactly from the original source; thus, there is a lengthy list of various grays, and also a separate long list of various greys. 11. Summary The ISCC-NBS system of color designations has been revised and extended to apply not only to the colors of drugs and chemicals for which it was orig- inally developed, but now to the colors of all opaque, clear, cloudy or fluorescent samples whether viewed by reflected or transmitted light and to microscopic structures. Its simplicity of terminology has rec- ommended its use in a number of fields of color description and a further application may be seen in the translations given in the Dictionary of Color Names. This method is dedicated to everyone who has found it difficult to make his color descriptions intelligible, in the hope that it will eventually find sufficiently wide use that it will serve as a common denominator in the varied color terminology used in science, art and industry. 12.

46 "It is separating a man from his wife." And with these engimatical words he made his adieu, with thanks, hastened to the ticket office, and an hour later was scouring the city for one Richard Spears.

The register of the Stillman House contained the freshly written name of "Richard Spears, Providence, R. I.," but that gentleman, when found in his room showing samples of hardware to a prospective buyer, regretted that he could not throw any light on the particular dollar his visitor held up to his gaze, and remembered distinctly that he had given the conductor a two-dollar bill in payment for his berth. He came from a section, he said, where people took no stock in silver dollars.

It was three o'clock in the afternoon when a man got off the train at Erie and inquired of the cabmen and depot master regarding a lady who had arrived on the early train from Buffalo. An hour later he was driving along a country road some miles south of the town inquiring for the Wickliffe farm.

As he finally drove up to the house which was his destination he was conscious of a strange excitement. This, he realized, was probably his only remaining chance to trace the coin by whose mysterious power he had been drawn into this wild chase with the hope of identifying its former owner. He took a hasty note of the general features of the place. It had a comfortable, well-to-do look; a two-story house, white, with green blinds. Most of these were closed, as is customary with country houses, but the windows at the right of the big front door, opening on a small porch, were shaded only by white curtains. There was a sound of voices within as he stepped up to the door and rapped.

Mrs. Wickliffe, a pleasant-faced little woman, sat surrounded by three children and a neighbor's wife, to whom she was displaying some purchases. As one of the children opened the door, admitting the stranger into this animated scene, she was standing before a mirror trying on a new bonnet, which was eliciting extravagant praises from the neighbor.

After listening to his story, Mrs. Wickliffe said that her memory was so treacherous that she really couldn't say for certain whether or not she gave the conductor the shining dollar, but that if she did she must have received it from her son in Germantown,

the earliest period at which the mention of India dawns upon us, among the records of the past, her name has been surrounded by a halo of poetic mystery, which even the research and familiarity of modern times, have as yet failed to entirely dispel. Of her own history she tells us but little, and it was only in comparatively modern times, when she came into contact with the more prosaic nations of the outer world, that we learned much regarding her former existence. So far as is at present known, no mention of India has yet been discovered among the records of Egypt or Assyria. No conquest of her country is recorded in the hieroglyphics that adorn the Temples of Thebes, nor been decyphered among the inscriptions on the walls of the palaces of Nineveh. It is even yet uncertain whether the Ophir or Tarshish to which the ships of Solomon traded and "brought back gold, and ivory, and algum trees, and apes, and peacocks," can be considered as places in India, rather than some much nearer localities in Arabia or Africa. The earlier Greek writers had evidently no distinct ideas on the subject, and confounded India with Ethiopia in a manner that is very perplexing. It was not, in fact, till the time of the glorious raid of Alexander the Great, that the East and the West came practically into contact, and we obtain any distinct accounts, on which reliance can be placed, regarding that land which before his time was, to his countrymen, little more than a mythic dream. Fortunately, as we now know, the visit of the Greeks occurred at one of the most interesting periods of Indian history. It was just when the old Vedic period was passing away, to give place to the new Buddhist epoch; when that religion was rising to the surface, which for nearly 1,000 years continued to be the prevailing faith of northern India, at least. Though after that period it disappeared from the land where it originated, it still continues to influence all the forms of religious belief in the surrounding countries, to the present day.

The gleam of light which the visit of the Greeks shed on the internal state of India, though brilliant, was transitory. Before the

4 great Mauryan dynasty which they found, or which they placed, on the throne of central India had passed away, her history relapsed, as before, into the same confused, undated, record of faineant kings, which continued almost down to the Moslem conquest, a tangle and perplexity to all investigators. It is only in rare instances that the problems it presents admit of a certain solution, while the records of the past, as they existed at the time when the Greeks visited the country, were, as may well be supposed, even more shadowy than they became in subsequent ages.

It is so strange that a country so early and so extensively civilised as India was, should have no written chronicles, that the causes that led to this strange omission deserve more attention than has hitherto been bestowed on the subject by the learned in Europe. The fact is the more remarkable, as Egypt on the one hand and China on the other, were among the most careful of all nations in recording dates and chronicling the actions of their earlier kings, and they did this notwithstanding all the difficulties of their hieroglyphic or symbolic writing, while India seems to have possessed an alphabet from an early date, which ought to have rendered her records easy to keep and still more easy to preserve. There seems in fact to be no intelligible cause why the annals of ancient India should not be as complete and satisfactory as those of any other country in a similar state of civilisation, unless it lies in the poetic temperament of its inhabitants, and the strange though picturesque variety of the races who dwell within her boundaries, but whose manifold diifferences seem at all times to have been fatal to that unity which alone can produce greatness or stability among nations.

AU this is the more strange, for, looked at on the map, India appears one of the most homogeneous and perfectly defined countries in the world. On the east, the ocean and impenetrable jungles shut her out from direct contact with the limitrophe nations on that side, while in the north the Himalayas forms a practically impassible barrier against the inhabitants of the Thibetan plains. On the west the ocean and the valley of the Indus equally mark the physical features which isolate the continent of India, and mark her out as a separate self-contained country. Within these boundaries there are no great barriers, no physical features, that divide the land into separate well defined provinces, in which we might expect difierent races to be segregated under different forms of

There is an erroneous impression that articles cook faster when the water is boiling violently, but this is not the case; the ebullition is caused by the escaping steam, which is lost heat, and the water at this time is at 212° (except in high elevations), however fast or slow it may be boiling. If, however, a little sugar or salt is added to the water it increases its density, and the heat rises to 224° before the steam escapes. The heat can be raised also by covering the pot and confining as much of the steam as possible. Where violently boiling water is recommended, as for rice and green peas, the object is not greater heat, but to keep the grains and peas separated by the turbulence of the water. There is waste of fuel in unnecessarily fast boiling, and economy can be easily practised here, especially where gas is used, as the boiling point, once reached, can be maintained with but little heat. Where the juices and color are to be retained, the articles are put into already boiling salted water. The albumen on the surface is then at once coagulated and the juices shut in. Where the object is to extract tbe juices, as for soups, they must be cut into pieces so as to expose more surface, and put into cold water, and the heat of the water gradually raised to the sim-

 and they see, more clearly than we can do, how all important the question of the destiny of the slaves must have become at the head-quarters of the Government.

To Europeans, who went through their task of emancipating their negroes long ago, the incident may seem to show a wonderful slowness, rather than a wonderful advance. We should remember, however, that, when we were just emancipating ours, in islands far away, the Americans were considering it a duty to be silent about negroes, because there was no intention of freeing them, while they were not far away in sugar islands, but on all the plantations, and in all the houses of the Southern States, to which the Northern States were in political subjection. As our position and theirs were opposite then, our sensations about this now incident cannot be identical now. It is like the case of the travellers on the Andes when those who were coming down, and those who were going up had opposite sensations at the same point,—the one party complaining of the cold, while the other exulted in the genial heat. Even we Europeans, however, ought to be able to see the importance of the first act of implication of the Government with the question of emancipation. These words, "We pray for the slave," are the first act of implication of the American Congress with the cause of the negro. Some were present who must have wondered whether Calhoun turned in his grave when the prayer was uttered.

The President's Message shows, without disguise, that Mr. Lincoln means to act in the matter of slavery as the people choose him to act. He never was an Abolitionist. He was always willing that Slavery should continue to exist where it existed already; hut he objected to its spreading over new territory. He was ready to afford it the protection provided in the Constitution; but he objected to any further efforts in its favour. Such was his view when he became President. He did not see that Slavery was the whole cause of the rupture of the Union; and he believed he saw that the Constitution must be preserved exactly as it stood, and that therefore fugitives must be returned to their owners, according to law. By marking the point he has arrived at now, we may perceive how the question is advancing. The President will go only as far, and as fast, as he is pushed. The resolution of Congress in July, which confiscated the slaves of rebel citizens, troubled Mr. Lincoln exceedingly; and it was only by extreme urging, and under pressure of time, that he agreed to it. It was a long step forward: but he has taken a longer now.

In the interval he showed doubt and hesitation about General Fremont's proclamation, that all slaves became free where the Government was present by its civil or military authorities. After some delay he discountenanced the act, and restored the terms to what Congress had made them. Yet it appeared that he expected General Fremont to be pressed upon him again by the people; and he recalled him in a way which need not prevent his future restoration to a high command. The falling off of popular support from the moment when he disavowed the emancipation act of Fremont was a strong hint; and it appears that the President has taken it.

It was an irksome necessity to him that he must say something on the subject in his Message to Congress. He must do it, however, and in a very strange way indeed he has done it. He had been hearing from all quarters of the perplexities of the commanders by land and sea about what to do with the negroes. One general was returning fugitives to their masters: another was receiving all who came, giving them work, and paying them wages; while a third tried to steer a course between the two, taking no notice of fugitives beyond forbidding them to enter the camp. Such inconsistencies could not go on: the soldiers would not permit it, if we may judge by their discontent at all orders which made them oppress the slaves.

By way of experiment, the negroes on the coasts where the Federal forces have established a footing, in South Carolina and Georgia, have been organised as a free labour force. The men work well; they now come in by thousands instead of hundreds; and the case is already so far clear to Mr. Lincoln himself, that, in his Message to Congress, he assumes the necessity of emancipation by proposing a scheme for disposing of the negroes when freed.

It is true, he proposes a plan which is absurd, and which he, and every man who heard his Message, must know to be impracticable. He proposes, by way of introduction, to recognise the independence of Hayti and Liberia. This is a significant proposal, because it means that men of colour may hereafter come to Washington, and be received as envoys. But there is another word to be said first about this proposal.

Hayti is a free republic, which has won its independence by arms. It is now well governed and prosperous; and a considerable number of American blacks have settled, and are daily settling in Hayti, to grow cotton for the Northern States and for Europe, Mr. Lincoln evidently wishes to encourage the emigration of as many of his black fellow-citizens as possible and therefore he is trying whether society will bear the presence of a Haytian envoy at Washington, as the price of getting rid of some hundreds or thousands of its dark-skinned members. The origin and condition of Liberia are different. That settlement was formed, half a century ago, by slave-holders, for the purpose (avowed in the Southern States) of sustaining slavery by deporting thither undesirable negroes, free and slave, and keeping the control of the numbers, and therefore of the value of slaves, by having an outlet in the shape of an African colony. As the scheme was not honest, it was not successful; and for forty years the free negroes of the United States have been resisting bribes and threats, and refusing to expatriate themselves to Africa. They were Americans, they said; they had formed friendships at home, and accumulated property, obtained equality for their children in the common schools, and educated them to form an intelligent society; and they would not go into a land of barbarism, to war with savages, and see the slave trade carried on along the coast, and slaves held in the settlement itself.

 Rh piled by him from the Tarikh-i-Rashidi; but it contains some emendations from the Chinese history of the Ming dynasty, as translated by Dr. Bretschneider, for the period immediately succeeding the reign of Khizir Khwája, and a few other alterations besides.

It is about this period that Mirza Haidar's chronicle is at its weakest; and it is also a period where some of the best of the Musulman authors fail us. The Rauzat us Safa of Mir Khwánd and the Zafar-Náma of Sharaf-ud-Din, both differ from the Tarikh-i-Rashidi, and the Ming history is at variance with all three. Thus between Khizir Khwája and Vais Khan, the Rauzat us Safa and the Zafar-Náma show two reigning Khans of Moghulistan, and the Tarikh-i-Rashidi also gives accounts of two only, though the names in the last-mentioned work are not the same as in the other two histories. But the Tarikh-i-Rashidi, in another place, relates that six Khans, including Khizir Khwája and Vais, were raised to the throne by the Dughlát Amir, Khudáidád, thus placing four between them. These Khans are—

and the author states them in this order; so that the three which correspond with the names of those given in the Chinese histories, do not fall in the same succession. Again none of the Musulman authors supply the date of succession for any of the intermediate Khans whom they mention. The Chinese annals show three Khans for the period between Khizir Khwája and Vais, and furnish the year of succession for each of them, besides giving dates of other contemporary occurrences, which indicate that a particular Khan was reigning at a particular time. The annals chiefly refer to tributary missions and appeals for assistance addressed to the Chinese Emperor, but it is precisely such occurrences as these that the Chinese chroniclers record with care and exactness. Their dynastic histories are believed to be not always trustworthy, but they are, at any rate, compilations, more or less methodical, from State documents and are not based merely on tradition, as are most of the Musulman

 How To Use the Dictionary of Color Names

Meaning of a color name. Look up the name in section 15. It will be followed by the ISCC-NBS designation in abbreviated form:

B=blue b=bluish Br=brown br brownish brill. brilliant d. dark G=green g=greenish Gy=gray gy.=grayish l. light m. = moderate med.medium O= orange Ol olive p.=pale P=purple p=purplish Pk=pink pk =pinkish R=red r=reddish s. strong v. very or vivid V=violet Y=yellow y=yellowish

See the color-name charts (section 13) for the color range of the designation in Munsell terms.

Continental Blue (P). Section 15 shows the ISCC-NBS designation to be dark purplish gray (d.pGy). The color-name charts (section 13) show that its Munsell notation must lie between 9PB and 1R in hue, between 2.5 and 4.5 in value, and between 0.5 and 1.5 in chroma.

Source of a color name. Look up the name in section 15 and note the code letter following it (M, R, P, and so on). The sources and uses of the color names are as follows:

Color range of name. Look up the name in section 15 and note the code letter following it (M, R, P, and so on) denoting its source. If the letter is F, H, M, MUP, P, PSP, R, or TC, the color name is defined by a single color chip and is intended to "pin point" that color. If the letter is A, B, RC, S, SC, or T, the name is defined by two or more color chips, and is intended to denote a range of colors of greater or lesser extent. To find the color range, note all of the ISCC-NBS designations given for the color name in section 15.

1. Madonna. Section 15 shows the source code letter M and the ISCC-NBS abbreviations m. B and gy.B. This is a "pin-pointing" name for a color on the border between grayish blue and moderate blue; see the color-name charts. EXAMPLE 2. Yellow (S). Section 15 shows abbreviations for 27 ISCC-NBS designations including 1.Br, 1.yPk, v.Y, and v.O. Yellow is used in philately to refer to postage-stamp colors ranging from light brown and light yellowish pink on the one hand, to vivid yellow and vivid orange on the other. Color-name families. Look up the generic name in section 15. Immediately following the definitions of the name from various sources will be found listed the specific names formed by a preceding adjective or adjectives in the form of cross-index references. These will be followed by all of the color names formed by use of the generic name as an adjective.

Blue. Section 15 shows five definitions of the generic name Blue. Then it lists 540 kinds of blue from Blue, Abstract to Blue, Zephyr. Following these are 115 names commencing with blue from Blue Appeal to Bluish White.

Exact synonyms of a color name. Look up the color name in section 15. If it is the key name for the color with less well-known synonyms defined by the same color chip, the synonyms will be found listed immediately after and indented under the key name. If it is a less well-known exact synonym of a key color name, section 15 will show in parentheses the key name preceded by "same as".

1. Acacia. Section 15 shows eleven exact synonyms following Acacia, such as Gaude, Luteous, Olde and so on. EXAMPLE 2. Wode. Section 15 shows "Wode (same as Acacia)".

Near synonyms of a color name. Look up the color name in section 15 and note the key number following the abbreviation for the ISCC-NBS designation. Look up the key number in section 14 (pages 37 to 82). There, classified as to source, will be found all of the color names corresponding to this ISCC-NBS designation.

Tabu. Section 15 shows the abbreviated ISCC-NBS designation to be gy.B with the key number 186. Under this key number section 14 shows 75 near synonyms from Maerz and Paul, 32 from Plochere, 32 from Ridgway, 32 from Taylor, Knoche, Granville, 12 from the Standard Color Card, and 27 from the other five sources.

The following abbreviations designate the branch of the U. S. Government using the color name:

1906.] Where men have toiled and sinned and laughed and wept
 * For thrice a thousand years.

Another voice is stilled of those that cry
 * In that sad wilderness

Proclaiming to the weary sons of men
 * "The Kingdom is at hand!"

Then one who loved him stood beside his grave
 * And saw its roughness clothed

With that same beauty which the Master praised.
 * For over all the mound,

Their pink bells open wide to greet the day,
 * Wild morning-glories blew.

So, blessed with eyes that see, his friend took cheer
 * From Nature's parable.

For even so he lived and wrought among
 * The lowliest of the low,

Men saw him leave the ways that lead to ease
 * And consecrate his all.

Some called him mad because he chose to toil
 * Among the mean and poor;

Nor did they reck that in those sordid souls
 * He saw God's starving sheep.

They did not care that, leaving all, he trod
 * The foot-steps of his Lord.

No narrow zealot he. His nature stood
 * Four-square to all the world.

With kindly ear the peasant's tale he heard,
 * He wept with those that wept;

Anon with gownèd pedant held discourse
 * Concerning sage's lore.

The offices of hospitality
 * It was his joy to do.

He was a man,—knightly among the knights
 * Of this, the Last Crusade.

Upon his shield were blazoned ancient words;
 * "All things to all,—to save."

From midst of labors for the souls of men
 * God called him swiftly home.

He knew no lingering pain. High on the breast
 * Of China's sacred Mount

Where Yao and Shun uplifted reverent hands
 * In the dim days of old,

Amidst the mid-night crash of elements,
 * His noble spirit passed.

And thus, in deathless joy, the man who walked
 * The humble path of love

Inhabiteth henceforward with his Lord
 * God's Morning-glory Land.

1831. mont. '—"How laughable!" exclaims Mr. Barrow in satire.—What is there laughable, in rational men's managing their affairs by a general council? The fact is, we fear, that a great deal of the enmity of visitors to the Islands of the Pacific, arises from the inhabitants being no longer the silly dupes of the covetous, and the licentious.

Shing-shoo jih-ko, tsoo-heo peen-yung;—Scripture lessons for schools.

A second edition of this most excellent compendium of Sacred Scripture, has recently appeared in Canton. The blocks for this work were cut, and a small number of copies struck off, last year; the expenses of which (about $500) were defrayed by the subscriptions of several English and American residents; this second edition has been published at the expense of the British and Foreign School Society.

The work is in 3 volumes, octavo; averaging something more than 200 pages, or 100 leaves as the Chinese reckon, per volume; and is executed in the style of the Chinese classics. Several sets of the work have been distributed in and about Canton; some have gone to the north of China; a quantity of them, were put into the hands of Mr. Gutzlaff for Japan and that neighbourhood; and small parcels of them, have or will soon, be sent to Batavia, Siam, Burmah, and other places, where demands for them have been made.

Heun-nen San-tsze-king: Ma-teen Neang-neang choo;—"A three character classic for girls; by Miss. Martin."

We hail with much pleasure, the appearance of this little work;—the first book, so far as we know, ever written liy a Christian lady in the Chinese character. Educated Chinese ladies, who appear more few and seldom than even angels' visits, sometimes write ditties and love songs. But "woman is incapable either of evil or good; if she does ill she is not a woman; if she does good she is not a woman; virtue or vice cannot belong to woman;" these and other similar dogmas of the ancient wise men of China, have blighted and degraded, for a long succession of ages, the fairest half of this Empire.

The Scriptures inform us of certain persons, who, because they received the word of God with all readiness of mind, and searched the Scriptures daily, were more noble than those who did not thus obey the gospel. Honorable women which were Greeks, are spoken of in the same connection; and are, no doubt, accounted thus hon- Mr. Barrow is rather a clever man, and being secretary to the Admiralty, it was a point of honor with him, to defend the two naval Captains against the Missionaries. He is, moreover, one of those "able writers," who abound in the present day, who labour, not from love to facts or principles, but for the love of pay; who supply the great Book manufacturers with their material; who must consider as of greatest importance in all they write, what will sell best. The boasted public Press is, we fear, very generally mercenary; and the beverage supplied is more analogous to "drams," than to good water, and the pure blood of the grape.

 1, 1862] putable settlement was acknowledged by England as a free republic many years ego. The circumstances of the cotton trade for some time past have loosened the grasp of the slaveholders upon it: it seems to have been allowed of late to make its own growth, free from the burden of shiploads of helpless negroes, deported from Southern plantations. The President could hardly have proposed at any former time to recognise the existence of a State formed out of the dregs of Southern plantations, in whose representative some member of Congress might chance to meet a former slave of his own—got rid of fur being dangerously clever or hopelessly stupid; but the state of opinion at Washington is now such as to induce Mr. Lincoln to propose to acknowledge the Republic of Liberia at the same time with the more advanced, hopeful, and dignified Republic of Hayti.

Both, however, are made to usher in the necessary but perplexing question—What is to be done with the slaves in the Confederate States?

The question itself shows that Mr. Lincoln regards emancipation as certain. This is good: but all the rest is so wrong and foolish that we might safely assume that Mr. Lincoln proposed something that would not do, in order to throw upon others the responsibility of whatever will have to be done, He tries to accommodate himself to the vulgar prejudice of colour by taking for granted that the negroes must all go away somewhere. He openly declares that he hopes the free blacks will go away with the slaves; and he holds this out as the great recommendation of the plan to the citizens of the North.

The people are, by Congress, to give money to buy a territory somewhere, outside of their own country; and there the four millions of slaves are to be transported, with as many free blacks as can be induced or compelled to go with them. There they are to be colonised, at the expense, and by the care, of the people of the United States. Such is Mr. Lincoln’s pretended scheme.

Thus, the land of the Southern States would be left without labourers. The owners would be left without servants, or any means of tilling their cotton-fields, or raising food, or keeping their live stock, or having their dinners cooked and their houses swept. The plantations would be left to run to waste. The four millions of negroes would be carried away from shelter and food, to be set down in a wilderness to starve. It is such nonsense to talk of separating the capitalists, the land, and the labourers, so as to render all the three helpless and desolate, that no further words are needed. Mr. Lincoln is perfectly well aware that the planters want the negroes, and that the negroes want the land and wages; and he has no apprehension that he will be taken at his word. The proposal is a safe way of making the admission that emancipation has become a necessity which cannot be deferred inch longer.

What, then, is to be done with the negroes?

The only serious difficulty is in the state of feeling of slave owners towards their negroes. The simile way of settling the matter is to fix a day, near at hand, when the labourers will receive wages instead of supplies in kind, on their agreeing to certain terms, By those terms, the hours and conditions of labour will be agreed upon, and the rent of their dwellings, and the amount of wages. If the owners were living at home, in peace and quiet, the change would be practicable and easy for all just-minded and kind-hearted men; and they would find it very profitable. So it was with the Northern States, and wherever the process has been well managed. But slave-holders are not, generally speaking, just-minded men, where their labourers are concerned; and not all of them are kind-hearted; and thus difficulties have arisen in emancipation cases, and complaints have been made that the negro is idle;—to which the negro replies that he cannot get his pay, and is badly used besides. In the present case, there is the serious embarrassment that the planters are not at home, in peace and quiet. Some are in the army: some have repaired to the cities for safety: some have armed their negroes against an enemy who is described to the slave as having a particular appetite for negro meat: and all are in more or less dread of what may happen under their "peculiar institution.” Last month is not the first time that a great part of Charleston has been burnt; and the negroes knew how to burn cotton before they saw their masters doing it now, all along the coast and the rivers where the Yankees (understood to be a sort of gorillas) can by any means get it. In short, emancipation is necessary now to preclude that worst of horrors, a servile insurrection. It is this pressing need which makes Mr. Lincoln speak of schemes which are an admission of the crisis; and instead of crying out, as some of our journals are doing, against emancipation as setting the slaves to murder their masters, everybody ought to see that in emancipation is the only security for the slave-holders. It is when freedom is denied, and not when it is conferred, that slaves take their case into their own hands. Thus far, American negroes have shown themselves, not murderous but thievish,—not savage but sly. Like our West India negroes, they work to accumulate property; are vain in displaying it; are fond of putting it to pious uses; are ambitious of education for their children; are social, imitative, gregarious,—everything which prevents their running into the wilds to squat, or lurking as banditti, as ignorant people suppose. They are fugitive, and not freed slaves, who infest the swamps. The Abolitionists know the negroes well; and the Abolitionists have proposed what the President is probably aware that he will have to carry out. As in former wars in the same States, the presence of the military and civil officers will free the slaves, and appoint the conditions of that freedom. Those conditions will secure the tillage of the soil, and the carrying on of the regular work of the plantations, under the management of the owners, when they are loyal, and of Government agents when the owner is hostile. Such is the provisional method which will preclude an outbreak at the beginning, and afford time and opportunity for such regulations as may be requisite for the negro, om his ceasing to be a slave, and before he is qualified to become a citizen. Beside such a feasible and simple pro-

Rh meter. At times both seem to show that they are translations, but the first is like much of Thompson's own work descriptive of the sun, and the second must have made a particularly deep appeal to him, dealing with the correspondence of nature and humanity. It ends:

The final group of poems, 'Ultima,' are love poems in which something of the seventeenth century lover remains, but with less of the elaborate artificiality of the 'Love in Dian's Lap' series. The most charming is, perhaps, 'My Lady the Tyranness,' which retains the spirituality and something of the naiveté of the earlier poems, but has much more life and vigor, much more of Thompson. He tells of his search for something of his own which is not subject to his lady; finding she is sovereign over his earth, his thought and life and death, his heaven, and even his God, he relinquishes the search and gives her also his fame, which, he then recalls, she alone created for him.

At the end of the volume is an envoy, the last stanza of which may perhaps be taken as an adequate explanation of the poet's contradictory moods, his alternating exaltation and despair. It reads:

With all that there is of interest and beauty and value in the above-mentioned poems, I find that I value Thompson most highly for three ideas expressed in three other poems, which seem to me his finest, and so much his finest that I have saved them for separate comment.

The first is 'The Hound of Heaven,' by which he is most widely known. It is an ode descriptive of the hound-like pursuit of God through the universe for the wayward or rebellious human

POETRY: Miss Lorimer is a young English poet resident in Oxford, who will publish her first volume this autumn. The London Poetry Review, in its August number, introduced her with a group of lyrics which were criticized with some asperity in the New Age and praised with equal warmth in other periodicals.

Miss Dudley, who is a Chicagoan born and bred, is still younger in the art, "To One Unknown" being the first of her poems to be printed.

Poetry will acknowledge the receipt of books of verse and works relating to the subject, and will print brief reviews of those which seem for any reason significant. It will endeavor also to keep its readers informed of the progress of the art throughout the English-speaking world and continental Europe. The American metropolitan newspaper prints cable dispatches about post-impressionists, futurists, secessionists and other radicals in painting, sculpture and music, but so far as its editors and readers are concerned, French poetry might have died with Victor Hugo, and English with Tennyson, or at most Swinburne.

Mammon, hold not in scorn my followers, For they shall see thee die. Nor deem thou they Abide mine only servants all glad things Acknowledge me, all sprites and Bacchic fauns, That now, unheeded by thy grosser sight, Do throng this wood, and wait to join my train.

All such are less than we. The combat waits.

O justice latent at the heart of things, Decide! Send forth thy vengeful minister In whatso shape thou wilt. Thou, God, decide!

(The immense owl that heralded the coming of the Spirit of Bohemia now sweeps down the hillside. Mammon, hearing the rush of its wings, turns and dies at its touch, the owl simultaneously disappearing.)

POETRY:

The years are a falling of snow, Slow, but without cessation, On hills and mountains and flowers and worlds that were; But snow and the crawling night in which it fell May be washed away in one swifter hour of flame. Thus it was that some slant of sunset In the chasms of piled cloud— Transient mountains that made a new horizon, Uplifting the west to fantastic pinnacles— Smote warm in a buried realm of the spirit, Till the snows of forgetfulness were gone.

Clear in the vistas of memory, The peaks of a world long unremembered, Soared further than clouds, but fell not, Based on hills that shook not nor melted With that burden enormous, hardly to be believed. Rent with stupendous chasms, Full of an umber twilight, I beheld that larger world.

Bright was the twilight, sharp like ethereal wine Above, but low in the clefts it thickened, Dull as with duskier tincture.

Remembered Light Like whimsical wings outspread but unstirring, Flowers that seemed spirits of the twilight, That must pass with its passing— Too fragile for day or for darkness, Fed the dusk with more delicate hues than its own. Stars that were nearer, more radiant than ours, Quivered and pulsed in the clear thin gold of the sky.

These things I beheld, Till the gold was shaken with flight Of fantastical wings like broken shadows, Forerunning the darkness; Till the twilight shivered with outcry of eldritch voices, Like pain's last cry ere oblivion. Clark Ashton Smith

POETRY: Then sprang his son to his side,
 * His lips with slaver were wet,

For he had felt how men died
 * And was lustful yet;

(On his bent helm a glove
 * Of the Duke's daughter,

In his eyes splendor of love
 * And slaughter)—

Shouting, "Father no more of mine!
 * "Shameful old man—abhorr'd,

"First traitor of all our line!"
 * Up the two-handed sword.

He smote—fell Sangar—and then
 * Screaming, red, the boy ran

Straight at the foe, and again
 * Hell began

Oh, there was joy in Heaven when Sangar came. Sweet Mary wept, and bathed and bound his wounds, And God the Father healed him of despair, And Jesus gripped his hand, and laughed and laughed John Reed

Sangar Now leaps one into the press—
 * The Hell 'twixt front and front—

Sangar, bloody and torn of dress
 * (He has borne the brunt).

"Hold!" cries "Peace! God's Peace!
 * "Heed ye what Christus says—"

And the wild battle gave surcease
 * In amaze.

"When will ye cast out hate?
 * "Brothers—my mad, mad brothers—

"Mercy, ere it be too late,
 * "These are sons of your mothers.

"For sake of Him who died on Tree,
 * "Who of all Creatures, loved the Least,"—

"Blasphemer! God of Battles, He!"
 * Cried a priest.

"Peace!" and with his two hands
 * Has broken in twain his glaive.

Weaponless, smiling he stands
 * (Coward or brave?)

"Traitor!" howls one rank, "Think ye
 * "The Hun be our brother?"

And "Fear we to die, craven, think ye?"
 * The other.
