Constitution of the Spanish Monarchy (1845)

(Translation.)

I. Spanish subjects are,

1stly. All persons born in the Spanish dominions;

2ndly. The issue of a Spanish father or a Spanish mother, though born abroad;

3rdly. Foreigners who have obtained letters of naturalization;

4thly. Those who, without such letters, have acquired the right of citizenship in any town of the monarchy.

The quality of a Spanish subject is lost by acquiring naturalization in a foreign country, and by accepting office from another Government without the permission of the King. The rights which those foreigners shall enjoy who obtain letters of naturalization or who have acquired the right of citizenship, will be determined by a law.

II. All Spaniards may freely print and publish their ideas, without previous censure, under the control of the laws.

VII. No Spaniard can be arrested or imprisoned or taken away from his domicile, nor can his house be entered, except in the cases and in the form prescribed by the laws.

VIII. If the security of the State should, under extraordinary circumstances, require the temporary suspension throughout the whole monarchy, or in part thereof, of the provisions of the preceding Article, such suspension shall be determined by a law.

IX. No Spaniard can be tried or condemned, except by the competent judge or tribunal, by virtue of the laws in force before the committal of the crime, and in the form which those laws prescribe.

X. The punishment of confiscation of property shall never be inflicted, and no Spaniard shall be deprived of his property except for reasons justified by public utility and upon previous adequate indemnification.

XI. The religion of the Spanish nation is the Catholic, Apostolic, Roman; the State binds itself to maintain its observances and its ministers.

XII. The power to make the laws belongs to the Cortes with the Sovereign.

XXI. The deputies shall be elected by the direct method and may be re-elected unlimitedly.

XLIX. The legitimate Queen of Spain is Doña Isabella II of Bourbon.

L. The succession to the throne of Spain shall be according to the regular order of primogeniture and of the right of succession, giving preference always to the earlier line over the later ones; in the same line to the nearest over the remoter grade; in the same grade to the male over the female, and in the same sex to the eldest person over the younger.

LVII. If the Sovereign should be a minor, the father or the mother of the Sovereign, and in default of them the relation who is nearest in the succession to the Crown, according to the order established in the Constitution, shall forthwith enter upon the Regency, and shall exercise it so long as the Sovereign is under age.

LVIII. In order that the nearest relation may exercise the Regency it is requisite that he should be a Spaniard, that he should have completed his 20th year, and that he should not be excluded from the succession to the Crown.

The father or the mother of the Sovereign can exercise the Regency only so long as they remain in widowhood.

LIX. The Regent shall take the oath before the Cortes to be faithful to the Sovereign under age, and to observe the Constitution and the laws.

LX. If there be no one who is legally entitled to the Regency, the Cortes shall appoint a Regency, which shall consist of 1, 3, or 5 persons.

Until such nomination has been made, the Council of Ministers shall govern the kingdom provisionally.

LXI. If the Sovereign be unable to exercise his authority, and this inability be recognized by the Cortes, the eldest son of the Sovereign, being of the major age of 14 years, shall exercise the Regency during the impediment; or in default of him the Consort of the Sovereign, and in default of the latter, the persons appointed to the Regency.

LXII. The Regent or the Regency, as the case may be, shall exercise all the authority of the Sovereign, in whose name the Acts of Government shall be proclaimed.

LXIII.

In default of them, the Cortes shall appoint a Governor; but the functions of a Regent and of a Governor of the Sovereign cannot be combined except in the father or mother of the Sovereign.

LXIV. Whatever the King ordains or decrees in the exercise of his authority, must be countersigned by the proper Minister; and no public official shall carry out any order that is wanting in this requisite.

LXV. The Ministers may be senators or deputies, and can take part in the deliberations of both co-legislative bodies, but they shall have a vote only in that body to which they belong.

LXVI. To the tribunals and the courts of justice exclusively belongs the power to apply the laws in civil and criminal causes, and they cannot exercise other functions than those of passing judgment and causing the sentence to be executed.

LXVII. The laws shall determine what tribunals and law courts there shall be, and the organization of each of them, their powers, the mode of exercising them, and the qualifications which their members must possess.

LXVIII. The trials in criminal matters shall be held publicly in the form which the laws determine.

LXIX. No magistrate or judge can be removed from his office, whether temporarily or finally, except by legal sentence.

LXX. The judges are personally responsible for all infractions of law which they commit.

LXXI. Justice is administered in the name of the Sovereign.

LXXII. In each province there shall be a provincial assembly elected in the form which the law determines, and composed of such number of individuals as the law indicates.

LXXIII. There shall be justices of the peace and municipalities in the towns.

The municipalities shall be elected by the inhabitants upon whom the law confers that right.

LXXIV. The law shall determine the organization and the attributions of the provincial assemblies and of the municipalities, and the intervention which the delegates of the Government shall be entitled to in those bodies.

LXXV. The Government shall lay before the Cortes every year the general estimates of the expenditure of the State for the ensuing year, and the proposed taxes and means of meeting it; as well as the accounts of the collection and application of the public revenues, for their examination and approval.

LXXVI. No taxes or rates shall be imposed or levied which are not authorized by the law passed on the estimates, or by other special laws.

LXXVII. A similar authorization is necessary to dispose of the state property, and to raise money on loan upon the credit of the nation.

LXXVIII. The public debt is under the special safeguard of the nation.

LXXIX. The Cortes shall every year, on the proposition of the Sovereign, determine the permanent military force by sea and land.

LXXX. The transmarine provinces shall be governed by special laws.

Wherefore we command all our subjects of whatever class and condition they may be, to keep and observe the present Constitution as the fundamental law of the monarchy, and we command in like manner all tribunals, courts of justice, chiefs, governors, and other authorities, civil as well as military and ecclesiastical, of whatever class or dignity, to observe, and cause to be observed, fulfilled, and executed the said Constitution in all its parts.

 least civilized, "those within the country," went clad in skins; whilst the southern or Belgic Britons were like the Gauls, and therefore not only completely but splendidly attired, as may be proved from various unquestionable authorities.

Of the several kinds of cloth manufactured in Gaul, one, according to Pliny and Diodorus Siculus was composed of fine wool, dyed of several ditferent colours, which being spun into yarn, was woven either in stripes or in chequers, and of this the Gauls and Britons made their lighter or summer garments. Here we have the undoubted origin of the Scotch plaid or tartan, which is called "the garb of old Gaul" to this day; and indeed, with the exception of the plumed bonnet and the tasselled sporan or purse, a Highland chief in his full costume, with tunic, plaid, dirk, and target, affords as good an illustration of the appearance of an ancient Briton of distinction as can well be imagined.

Diodorus, describing the Belgic Gauls, says, they wore dyed tunics, beflowered with all manner of colours. With these they wore close trousers, which they called ỏraceæ ; these trousers, an article of apparel by which all barbaric nations seem to have been distinguished from the Romans, being made by the Gauls and Britons of their chequered cloth, called breach and brycan, and by the Irish, breacan.

 ḥetep have become a mere formula, and that this formula was to be recited because it was found in the sacred books. Next, it is clear that the words pert er kheru (i.e., "things which come forth at the word") were also a formula, which was to be recited because the men of olden time had been in the habit of reciting it. But the text goes on to say that the pert er kheru were to be "like the perrt from the mouth of the god," and its meaning is plain. When the god of creation made the world and the things in it, he merely uttered the names of the things which he wished to make, and these things came into being. Paḥeri wished the people whom he addressed to say pert er kheru mȧ perrt em re en neter, so that the things which came forth might be like the things which appeared after the god had uttered their names. In other words, the mere utterance of the words of the formula by the living would cause offerings of every kind to appear in abundance, just as the utterance of the words suten ṭā ḥetep would produce a "royal offering." It was unnecessary to place offerings in the tomb, for these would appear as a matter of course as a result of the recital of the formulae.

The meaning of pert kheru has also been discussed by Mr. Griffith, who thinks that pert kheru and pert er kheru, , undoubtedly represent the old form. Other authorities who accept the general

 meaning of "offerings" for pert kheru are Virey, Amélineau, and Erman.

It now remains to consider how the words  suten ḥetep ṭā, were understood by the Egyptians. It is true that they occur on almost every sepulchral monument known to us, but there are cases in which they are omitted. To one of these Mr. Griffith has called attention, namely the inscription of Methen, which begins with the words Ȧnpu ḥetep ṭā, "May Ȧnpu give an offering," and makes no mention of the ḥetep of the king. Another is found in the work of Mariette, Les Mastaba, p. 116, where we have  "May the great god give an offering," and no mention is made of the king. Both examples come from monuments which are not later than the IVth Dynasty, and it is clear that there was a time in Egypt when men invoked the god and made no mention of the king. It is quite possible, and very probable, that the king sent gifts or offerings when his friends among the nobles, or highly meritorious officials, were laid to rest in their tombs, and a proof of this is perhaps furnished in a text published by Mariette ( op. cit., p. 396) where we have the following :--


text: The Illustrators of Montmartre/Frontispiece


text:
Page:Books on Egypt and Chaldaea, Vol. 25--Liturgy of Funeral Offerings.pdf/53

"May the king give an offering! May he give 1000 loaves, 1000 [vessels of] wine (or beer), 1000 oxen (or, bulls), 1000 geese, 1000 swathings, 1000 [vessels of] oil, 1000 linen garments."

On the other hand, it is possible to regard  merely as a formula of pious import, which is not intended to be understood literally, and to translate   by "may one give." The Egyptians were an eminently practical people, and, however great and powerful they thought their kings, they must have perceived that it was impossible for them to send funerary gifts to the tombs of each and all their subjects. It may be argued that the king was held to be god as well as man, and that he was therefore able to supply every dead person with offerings, like Seb, or Ȧnpu, or Osiris, or Khenti Ȧmenti, but there seems to me to be no evidence in the texts which would support this view. Moreover, there

'''Exodus 18:22 The Visit of Jethro

Now Moses’ father-in-law Jethro, the priest of Midian, heard about all that God had done for Moses and His people Israel, and how the LORD had brought Israel out of Egypt.

After Moses had sent back his wife Zipporah, his father-in-law Jethro had received her, along with her two sons. One son was named Gershom, for Moses had said, “I have been a foreigner in a foreign land.” The other son was named Eliezer, for Moses had said, “The God of my father was my helper and delivered me from the sword of Pharaoh.”

Moses’ father-in-law Jethro, along with Moses’ wife and sons, came to him in the desert, where he was encamped at the mountain of God. He sent word to Moses, “I, your father-in-law Jethro, am coming to you with your wife and her two sons.”

So Moses went out to meet his father-in-law and bowed down and kissed him. They greeted each other and went into the tent. Then Moses recounted to his father-in-law all that the LORD had done to Pharaoh and the Egyptians for Israel’s sake, all the hardships they had encountered along the way, and how the LORD had delivered them.

And Jethro rejoiced over all the good things the LORD had done for Israel, whom He had rescued from the hand of the Egyptians. Jethro declared, “Blessed be the LORD, who has delivered you from the hand of the Egyptians and of Pharaoh, and who has delivered the people from the hand of the Egyptians. Now I know that the LORD is greater than all other gods, for He did this when they treated Israel with arrogance.”

Then Moses’ father-in-law Jethro brought a burnt offering and sacrifices to God, and Aaron came with all the elders of Israel to eat bread with Moses’ father-in-law in the presence of God.

Jethro Advises Moses (Deuteronomy 1:9–18)

The next day Moses took his seat to judge the people, and they stood around him from morning until evening. When his father-in-law saw all that Moses was doing for the people, he asked, “What is this that you are doing for the people? Why do you sit alone as judge, with all the people standing around you from morning till evening?”

“Because the people come to me to inquire of God,” Moses replied. “Whenever they have a dispute, it is brought to me to judge between one man and another, and I make known to them the statutes and laws of God.”

But Moses’ father-in-law said to him, “What you are doing is not good. Surely you and these people with you will wear yourselves out, because the task is too heavy for you. You cannot handle it alone.

Now listen to me; I will give you some advice, and may God be with you. You must be the people’s representative before God and bring their causes to Him. Teach them the statutes and laws, and show them the way to live and the work they must do.

Furthermore, select capable men from among the people—God-fearing, trustworthy men who are averse to dishonest gain. Appoint them over the people as leaders of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties, and of tens.

Have these men judge the people at all times. Then they can bring you any major

'''90 issue, but all minor cases they can judge on their own, so that your load may be lightened as they share it with you.

If you follow this advice and God so directs you, then you will be able to endure, and all these people can go home in peace.”

Moses listened to his father-in-law and did everything he said. So Moses chose capable men from all Israel and made them heads over the people as leaders of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties, and of tens. And they judged the people at all times; they would bring the difficult cases to Moses, but any minor issue they would judge themselves.

Then Moses sent his father-in-law on his way, and Jethro returned to his own land. Israel at Mount Sinai

In the third month, on the same day of the month that the Israelites had left the land of Egypt, they came to the Wilderness of Sinai. After they had set out from Rephidim, they entered the Wilderness of Sinai, and Israel camped there in front of the mountain.

Then Moses went up to God, and the LORD called to him from the mountain, “This is what you are to tell the house of Jacob and explain to the sons of Israel: ‘You have seen for yourselves what I did to Egypt, and how I carried you on eagles’ wings and brought you to Myself. Now if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, you will be My treasured possession out of all the nations—for the whole earth is Mine. And unto Me you shall be a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words that you are to speak to the Israelites.”

So Moses went back and summoned the elders of the people and set before them all these words that the LORD had commanded him. And all the people answered together, “We will do everything that the LORD has spoken.”

So Moses brought their words back to the LORD.

The LORD said to Moses, “Behold, I will come to you in a dense cloud, so that the people will hear when I speak with you, and they will always put their trust in you.”

And Moses relayed to the LORD what the people had said.

Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to the people and consecrate them today and tomorrow. They must wash their clothes and be prepared by the third day, for on the third day the LORD will come down on Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people.

And you are to set up a boundary for the people around the mountain and tell them, ‘Be careful not to go up on the mountain or touch its base. Whoever touches the mountain shall surely be put to death. No hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or shot with arrows—whether man or beast, he must not live.’

Only when the ram’s horn sounds a long blast may they approach the mountain. ”

When Moses came down from the mountain to the people, he consecrated them, and they washed their clothes. “Be prepared for the third day,” he said to the people. “Do not draw near to a woman.”

The LORD Visits Sinai

On the third day, when morning came, there was thunder and lightning. A thick cloud was upon the mountain, and a very loud blast of the ram’s horn went out, so that all the people

 the tunic both the Gauls and the Britons wore the sagum, a short cloak so called by the Romans, from the Celtic word saic, which, according to Varro, signified a skin or hide; such having been the materials which the invention of cloth had superseded. The British sagum was of one uniform colour, generally either blue or black. The predominating colour in the chequered tunic and bracæ was red. The hair was turned back upon the crown of the head, and fell down in long and bushy curls behind. If covered at all, it was by the cappan or cap, from the British cab, a hut, which it resembled in its conical shape; the houses of the Britons being made with wattles stuck in the ground, and fastened together at top. "It is somewhat singular," remarks the learned author to whose indefatigable research we are indebted for the first general collection of ancient British authorities, "that the form of this ancient pointed cap is to this day exhibited in what the Welsh children call the cappan cyniicyll, the horn-like cap, made of rushes tied at top, and twisted into a band at bottom "

Men of rank amongst the Gauls and Britons, according to Caesar and Diodorus, shaved the chin, but wore immense tangled mustaches. Strabo describes those of the inhabitants of Cornwall and the Scilly Isles as hanging down upon their breasts like wings. These latter people, he says, wore long black garments like tunics, and carried staves in their hands, so that, when walking, they looked like furies in a tragedy, though really a quiet and inoffensive people ".

14 F our American cousins in general hesitate to visit our little island, lest, as some of them have put it, they should fall over the edge; those more astronomically inclined may very fairly decline, on the ground that it is a spot where the sun steadily refuses to be eclipsed. This is the more tantalising, because the Americans have just observed their third eclipse this century, and already I have been invited to another, which will be visible in Colorado, four days' journey from Boston (I suppose I am right in reckoning from Boston ?) on July 29, 1878. Thanks to the accounts in Silliman's Journal and the Philosophical Magazine, and to the kindness of Professors Winlock and Morton, who have sent me some exquisite photographs, I have a sufficient idea of the observations of this third eclipse, which happened on the 7th of August last, to make me anxious to know very much more about them—an idea sufficient also, I think, to justify some remarks here on what we already know.

A few words are necessary to show the work that had to be done.

An eclipse of the sun, so beautiful and yet so terrible to the mass of mankind, is of especial value to the astronomer, because at such times the dark body of the moon, far out- side our atmosphere, cuts off the sun's light from it, and round the place occupied by the moon and moon-eclipsed sun there is therefore none of the glare which we usually see-a glare caused by the reflection of the sun's light by

Violet end. our atmosphere. If, then, there were anything surrounding the sun ordinarily hidden from us by this glare, we ought to see it during eclipses.

In point of fact, strange things are seen. There is a strange halo of pearly light visible, called the corona, and there are strange red things, which have been called red flames or red prominences, visible nearer the edge of the moon—or of the sun which lies behind it.

Now, although we might, as I have pointed out, have these things revealed to us during eclipses if they belonged to the sun, it does not follow that they belong to the sun because we see them. Halley, a century and a half ago, was, I believe, the first person to insist that they were appearances due to the moon's atmosphere, and it is only within the last decade that modern science has shown to everybody's satisfaction—by photographing them, and showing that they were eclipsed as the sun was eclipsed, and did not travel with the moon—that the red prominences really do belong to the sun.

The evidence, with regard to the corona, was not quite so clear; but I do not think I shall be contradicted when I say, that prior to the Indian eclipse last year the general notion was that the corona was nothing more nor less than the atmosphere of the sun, and that the prominences were things floating in that atmosphere.

While astronomers had thus been slowly feeling their way, the labours of Wollaston, Herschel, Fox Talbot, Wheatstone, Kirchhoff, and Bunsen, were providing them with an instrument of tremendous power, which was to expand their knowledge with a suddenness almost startling, and give them previously undreamt-of powers of research. I allude to the spectroscope, which was first successfully used to examine the red flames during the eclipse of last year. That the red flames were composed of hydrogen, and that the spectroscope enabled us to study them day by day, were facts acquired to science independently by two observers many thousand miles apart.

The red flames were "settled," then, to a certain extent; but what about the corona?

After I had been at work for some time on the new method of observing the red flames, and after Dr. Frankland and myself had very carefully studied the hydrogen spectrum under previously untried conditions, we came to the conclusion that the spectroscopic evidence brought forward, both in the observatory and in the laboratory, was against any such extensive atmosphere as the corona had been imagined to indicate; and we communicated our conclusion to the Royal Society. Since that time, I confess, the conviction that the corona is nothing else than an effect due to the passage of sunlight through our own atmosphere near the moon's place has been growing stronger and stronger; but there was always this consideration to be borne in mind, namely, that as the spectroscopic evidence depends mainly upon the brilliancy of the lines, that evidence was in a certain sense negative only, as the glare might defeat the spectroscope with an un-eclipsed sun in the coronal regions, where the temperature and pressure are lower than in the red-flame region.

The great point to be settled then, in America, was, What is the corona? and there were many less ones. For instance, by sweeping round the sun with the spectroscope, both before and after the eclipse, and observing the prominences with the telescope merely during the eclipse, we

 but these are qualifications scarcely fit to be inserted in a prospectus. Of French they knew something; enough to read it fluently, but hardly enough to teach it in competition with natives, or professional masters. Emily and Anne had some knowledge of music; but here again it was doubful whether, without more instruction, they could engage to give lessons in it.

Just about this time, Miss Wooler was thinking of relinquishing her school at Dewsbury Moor; and offered to give it up in favour of her old pupils, the Brontës. A sister of hers had taken the active management since the time when Charlotte was a teacher; but the number of pupils had diminished; and, if the Brontës undertook it, they would have to try and work it up to its former state of prosperity. This, again, would require advantages on their part which they did not at present possess, but which Charlotte caught a glimpse of. She resolved to follow the clue, and never to rest till she had reached a successful issue. With the forced calm of a suppressed eagerness, that sends a glow of desire through every word of the following letter, she wrote to her aunt thus.

"Sept. 29th, 1841. ",

Page:The Reshaping of British Railways (Beeching Report).pdf/15

 In April 1961, British Railways had about 7,000 stations open to traffic, equivalent to one for every 24 miles of route, and the distribution of stations over the route system with indications of their passenger and freight traffic levels are shown in Maps Nos. 3 and 4.

An analysis of the passenger receipts arising at passenger stations, excluding some very little used ones and unstaffed halts, was made from very complete records kept in 1960. As will be seen from Table No. 4 and Figure No. 2 in Appendix 1, one third of the stations produced less than I per cent. of the total passenger receipts and one half of the stations produced only 2 per cent. At the other end of the scale 34 stations, or less than 1 per cent. of the total, produced 26 per cent. of the receipts.

Of the freight stations, one third produced less than 1 per cent. of the station freight receipts and one half of the stations produced less than 3 per cent.

The total revenue derived from the least used half of the total number of stations and the cost of running them is set out below.

From these figures, which are not highly accurate, but which are approximately correct, it will be seen that the gross revenue derived from traffic of all kinds flowing from the least used half of the total number of British Railways' stations does not match the cost of the stations themselves. In other words, it makes no contribution whatever to route costs, to movement costs, nor to terminal costs at the other end of its transit. There can be no question, therefore, that the railways would be better off financially if a high proportion of the stations were closed, even if this resulted in a total loss of the traffic passing through them.

The foregoing general considerations focus attention upon the extreme unprofitability of some broad classes of traffic, as they are handled at present, and also upon the highly questionable value of much of the lightly loaded route mileage and of many of the small stations. Nevertheless, before firm conclusions can safely be drawn as to the desirability of closing particular routes, or of deliberately rejecting particular types of traffic, it is necessary to examine the mixture of traffics in each broad class in more detail, and to determine what

 suggested and approved by Mr. and Mrs. " (the father and mother of her pupils) "and others, which I wish now to impart to you. My friends recommend me, if I desire to secure permanent success, to delay commencing the school for six months longer, and by all means to contrive, by hook or by crook, to spend the intervening time in some school on the continent. They say schools in England are so numerous, competition so great, that without some such step towards attaining superiority, we shall probably have a very hard struggle, and may fail in the end. They say, moreover, that the loan of 100l., which you have been so kind as to offer us, will, perhaps, not be all required now, as Miss Wooler will lend us the furniture; and that, if the speculation is intended to be a good and successful one, half the sum, at least, ought to be laid out in the manner I have mentioned, thereby insuring a more speedy repayment both of interest and principal.

"I would not go to France or to Paris. I would go to Brussels, in Belgium. The cost of the journey there, at the dearest rate of travelling, would be 5l.; living is there little more than half as dear as it is in England, and the facilities for education are equal or superior to any other place in Europe. In half a year, I could acquire a thorough familiarity with French. I could improve greatly in Italian, and even get a dash of German; i. e., providing my health continued as good as it is now. Mary is now staying at Brussels, at a first-rate establishment there. I should not think of going to the Château de Kokleberg, where she is resident, as

 the terms are much too high; but if I wrote to her, she, with the assistance of Mrs. Jenkins, the wife of the British Chaplain, would be able to secure me a cheap decent residence and respectable protection. I should have the opportunity of seeing her frequently; she would make me acquainted with the city; and, with the assistance of her cousins, I should probably be introduced to connections far more improving, polished, and cultivated, than any I have yet known.

"These are advantages which would turn to real account, when we actually commenced a school; and, if Emily could share them with me, we could take a footing in the world afterwards which we can never do now. I say Emily instead of Anne; for Anne might take her turn at some future period, if our school answered. I feel certain, while I am writing, that you will see the propriety of what I say. You always like to use your money to the best advantage. You are not fond of making shabby purchases; when you do confer a favour, it is often done in style; and, depend upon it, 50l., or 100l., thus laid out, would be well employed. Of course, I know no other friend in the world to whom I could apply, on this subject, except yourself. I feel an absolute conviction that, if this advantage were allowed us, it would be the making of us for life. Papa will, perhaps, think it a wild and ambitious scheme; but who ever rose in the world without ambition? When he left Ireland to go to Cambridge University, he was as ambitious as I am now. I want us all to get on. I know we have talents

82 Oft moving down the sloping daie I've eyed. Thy golden radiance from the mountain side; Have often long'd upon yon hills to be. To catch a comfortable ray from thee.

Now chill November's breath is cold and keen, The trees around have lost their lovely green, While horned cattle from the mountains roam, And for their masters low, to take them home.

The early plough boy stops to clap his hands, The tender female dance^ where she stands, While I, half starved, have thought thy coming long, But now I hail thee welcome with a song!

'Tis said in heathen lands they worship thee, When o'er the mountain tops thy light they see; But as thou here no homage dost receive, I to thy Maker all the glory give.

His face, like thine, the drooping cheers, Oppressed with guilt and overwhelmed with fears, A ray from thee, O uncreated Sun, Breaks up, and makes long-frozen fountains run.

Thou, from thyself, the soul to purify, Dost pour the living water from on high, Which if it doth within the soul remain, The sinner's heart shall never freeze again.

Yes! he who daily drinks of this pure wave, For sensual pleasure shall no relish have, But calm amidst the turbulence of life, Shall dwell for ever free from care and strife.

No more he meets them at the gate, No breezes waft his silver'd hair, While o'er the dead, both small and great, His soul breathes out the ardent prayer!

Nor from his eye, when grave-scenes call, His streaming tears are seen to flow,— Those tears, which to the earth did fall, And mingle with the dust below.

No more he at the alter stands, To bless, or break the hallowed bread, While from his lips and lifted hands, Each hungry, holy soul is fed!

But mingled happy saints among, His ravished soul doth now ascend, To share that bliss which he so long To others here did recommend.

 and I want them to be turned to account. I look to you, aunt, to help us. I think you will not refuse. I know, if you consent, it shall not be my fault if you ever repent your kindness."

This letter was written from the house in which she was residing as governess. It was some little time before an answer came. Much had to be talked over between the father and aunt in Haworth Parsonage. At last consent was given. Then, and not till then, she confided her plan to an intimate friend. She was not one to talk over-much about any project, while it remained uncertain—to speak about her labour, in any direction, while its result was doubtful.

LMOND. . Class 12,. Order:, Fable confers an affecting origin on this tree. It relates that, son of Theseus and Phædra, in returning from the siege of Troy, was thrown by a storm on the shores of Thrace, where then reigned the beautiful Phyllis. The young queen graciously received the prince, fell in love with him, and became his wife. When recalled to Athens by his father’s death, Demophoon promised to return in a month, and fixed the day. The affectionate Phyllis counted the hours of his absence, and at last the appointed day arrived. Nine times she repaired to the shore; but, losing all hope of his return, she dropped down dead with grief, and was turned into an Almond-tree. Three months afterwards, Demophoon returned. Overwhelmed with sorrow, he offered a sacrifice at the sea-side, to appease the manes of his bride. She seemed to sympathize with his repentance: for the Almond-tree, into which she had been transformed, instantly put forth its flowers, and proved by this last effort that true love, “strong as death,” is incapable of change.

According to Moore, the Almond blossom is the emblem of hope—

In ancient times, the abundance of blossom on this tree was considered as the promise of a fruitful season.

Thornburg v. Gingles/Concurrence-dissent Stevens

JUSTICE STEVENS, with whom JUSTICE MARSHALL and JUSTICE BLACKMUN join, concurring in part and dissenting in part.

In my opinion, the findings of the District Court, which the Court fairly summarizes, ante, at 37-41, 52-54, and n. 23, 59-61, and nn. 29 and 29, adequately support the District Court's judgment concerning House District 23 as well as the balance of that judgment.

I, of course, agree that the election of one black candidate in each election since 1972 provides significant support for the State's position. The notion that this evidence creates some sort of a conclusive, legal presumption, ante, at 75-76, is not, however, supported by the language of the statute or by its legislative history. I therefore cannot agree with the Court's view that the District Court committed error by failing to apply a rule of law that emerges today without statutory support. The evidence of candidate success in District 23 is merely one part of an extremely large record which the District Court carefully considered before making its ultimate findings of fact, all of which should be upheld under a normal application of the "clearly erroneous" standard that the Court traditionally applies.

The Court identifies the reason why the success of one black candidate in the elections in 1978, 1980, and 1982 is not inconsistent with the District Court's ultimate finding concerning House District 23. The fact that one black candidate was also elected in the 1972, 1974, and 1976 elections, ante, at 82, Appendix B, is not sufficient, in my opinion, to overcome the additional findings that apply to House District 23, as well as to other districts in the State for each of those years. The Court accurately summarizes those findings: "'The District Court in this case carefully considered the totality of the circumstances and found that in each district racially polarized voting; the legacy of official discrimination in voting matters, education, housing, employment, and health services; and the persistence of campaign appeals to racial prejudice acted in concert with the multimember districting scheme to impair the ability of geographically insular and politically cohesive groups of black voters to participate equally in the political process and to elect candidates of their choice. it found that the success a few black candidates have enjoyed in these districts is too recent, too limited, and, with regard to the 1982 elections, perhaps too aberrational, to disprove its conclusion.' Ante, at 80."

To paraphrase the Court's conclusion about the other districts, ibid., I cannot say that the District Court, composed of local judges who are well acquainted with the political realities of the State, clearly erred in concluding that use of a multimember electoral structure has caused black voters in House District 23 to have less opportunity than white voters to elect representatives of their choice. Accordingly, I concur in the Court's opinion except Part IV-B and except insofar as it explains why it reverses the judgment respecting House District 23.

The state of learned education may be considered with reference to the two great divisions of the population, the Musalmans and the Hindus. Of the former, the grand media of instruction are the Persian and the Arabic; of the latter, the Sanskrit. The schools or colleges in which these are taught claim a separate notice.

1. Persian Schools.—While Bengali and Urdu are the languages of ordinary conversation with the great mass of the Muhammadan population, it is easy to see why Persian must have peculiar attractions for the educated. It is the language of their popular literature, science, and philosophy. It is the language of “the former conquerors and rulers of Hindustan, from whom they have directly or indirectly sprung, and the memory both of a proud ancestry and of a past dominion—the loyalty which attaches itself rather to religion and to race than to country,—attract them to its cultivation.” Apart from such motives, however, the importance given to the Persian language, under the Mogul Sovereigns, and till recently under the British Government, in the administration of justice and police, and in the collection of the revenue, must have exerted no inconsiderable influence. And, in the case of the Hindus, that consideration must have had almost conclusive weight. For it is a remarkable fact, that though, as regards the Hindus, the Persian be altogether a foreign language, the number of Hindu scholars in the Persian schools considerably exceeds that of the Musalman pupils; there being, in the five districts visited by Mr. Adam, 2,096 of the former, and only 1,558 of the latter. This is a fact which can only be accounted for in one way. It is the effect of the artificial stimulus supplied by the long, and until very recently, the almost exclusive use of the Persian in the ordinary routine of Government and local administration. And, as it has

 in fault. The plain fact is, I was not, I am not now, certain of my destiny. On the contrary, I have been most uncertain, perplexed with contradictory schemes and proposals. My time, as I have often told you, is fully occupied; yet I had many letters to write, which it was absolutely necessary should be written. I knew it would avail nothing to write to you then to say I was in doubt and uncertainty—hoping this, fearing that, anxious, eagerly desirous to do what seemed impossible to be done. When I thought of you in that busy interval, it was to resolve, that you should know all when my way was clear, and my grand end attained. If I could, I would always work in silence and obscurity, and let my efforts be known by their results. Miss W. did most kindly propose that I should come to Dewsbury Moor, and attempt to revive the school her sister had relinquished. She offered me the use of her furniture, for the consideration of her board. At first, I received the proposal cordially, and prepared to do my utmost to bring about success; but a fire was kindled in my very heart, which I could not quench. I so longed to increase my attainments—to become something better than I am; a glimpse of what I felt, I showed to you in one of my former letters—only a glimpse; Mary cast oil upon the flames—encouraged me, and in her own strong, energetic language, heartened me on. I longed to go to Brussels; but how could I get? I wished for one, at least, of my sisters to share the advantage with me. I fixed on Emily. She deserved the reward, I knew. How could the point be managed? In extreme

 excitement, I wrote a letter home, which carried the day. I made an appeal to aunt for assistance, which was answered by consent. Things are not settled; yet it is sufficient to say we have a chance of going for half a year. Dewsbury Moor is relinquished. Perhaps, fortunately so, for it is an obscure, dreary place, not adapted for a school. In my secret soul, I believe there is no cause to regret it. My plans for the future are bounded to this intention: if I once get to Brussels, and if my health is spared, I will do my best to make the utmost of every advantage that shall come within my reach. When the half-year is expired, I will do what I can.

"Believe me, though I was born in April, the month of cloud and sunshine, I am not changeful. My spirits are unequal, and sometimes I speak vehemently, and sometimes I say nothing at all; but I have a steady regard for you, and if you will let the cloud and shower pass by, be sure the sun is always behind, obscured, but still existing."

At Christmas she left her situation, after a parting with her employers, which seems to have affected and touched her greatly. "They only made too much of me," was her remark, after leaving this family; "I did not deserve it."

 a clerk on the Leeds and Manchester Railway, in which he had been engaged for five months. Anne arrived before Christmas-day. She had rendered herself so valuable in her difficult situation, that her employers vehemently urged her return, although she had announced her resolution to leave them; partly on account of the harsh treatment she had received, and partly because her stay at home, during her sisters' absence in Belgium, seemed desirable, when the age of the three remaining inhabitants of the parsonage was taken into consideration.

After some correspondence and much talking over plans at home, it seemed better, in consequence of letters which they received from Brussels giving a discouraging account of the schools there, that Charlotte and Emily should go to an institution at Lille, in the north of France, which was highly recommended by Baptist Noel, and other clergymen. Indeed, at the end of January, it was arranged that they were to set off for this place in three weeks, under the escort of a French lady, then visiting in London. The terms were 50l. each pupil, for board and French alone, but a separate room was to be allowed for this sum; without this indulgence, it was lower. Charlotte writes:—

"January 20th, 1842.

"I considered it kind in aunt to consent to an extra sum for a separate room. We shall find it a great privilege in many ways. I regret the change from

 Brussels to Lille on many accounts, chiefly that I shall not see Martha. Mary has been indefatigably kind in providing me with information. She has grudged no labour, and scarcely any expense, to that end. Mary's price is above rubies. I have, in fact, two friends—you and her—staunch and true, in whose faith and sincerity I have as strong a belief as I have in the Bible. I have bothered you both—you especially; but you always get the tongs and heap coals of fire upon my head. I have had letters to write lately to Brussels, to Lille, and to London. I have lots of chemises, night-gowns, pocket-handkerchiefs, and pockets to make; besides clothes to repair. I have been, every week since I came home, expecting to see Branwell, and he has never been able to get over yet. We fully expect him, however, next Saturday. Under these circumstances how can I go visiting? You tantalize me to death with talking of conversations by the fireside. Depend upon it, we are not to have any such for many a long month to come. I get an interesting impression of old age upon my face; and when you see me next I shall certainly wear caps and spectacles."

not aware of all the circumstances which led to the relinquishment of the Lille plan. Brussels had had from the first a strong attraction for Charlotte; and the idea of going there, in preference to any other place, had only been given up in consequence of the information received of the second-rate character of its schools. Reference has been made in her letters to Mrs. Jenkins, the wife of the chaplain of the British Embassy. At the request of his brother—a clergyman, living not many miles from Haworth, and an acquaintance of Mr. Brontë's—she made much inquiry, and at length, after some discouragement in her search, heard of a school which seemed in every respect desirable. There was an English lady, who had long lived in the Orleans family, amidst the various fluctuations of their fortunes, and who, when the Princess Louise was married to King Leopold, accompanied her to Brussels, in the capacity of reader. This lady's granddaughter was receiving her education at the pensionnat of Madame Héger; and so satisfied was the grandmother with the kind of instruction given, that she named the establishment, with high encomiums,

 to Mrs. Jenkins; and, in consequence, it was decided that, if the terms suited, Miss Brontë and Emily should proceed thither. M. Héger informs me that, on receipt of a letter from Charlotte, making very particular inquiries as to the possible amount of what are usually termed "extras," he and his wife were so much struck by the simple earnest tone of the letter, that they said to each other:—"These are the daughters of an English pastor, of moderate means, anxious to learn with an ulterior view of instructing others, and to whom the risk of additional expense is of great consequence. Let us name a specific sum, within which all expenses shall be included."

This was accordingly done; the agreement was concluded, and the Brontës prepared to leave their native county for the first time, if we except the melancholy and memorable residence at Cowan's Bridge. Mr. Brontë determined to accompany his daughters. Mary and her brother, who were experienced in foreign travelling, were also of the party. Charlotte first saw London in the day or two they now stopped there; and, from an expression in one of her subsequent letters, they all, I believe, stayed at the Chapter Coffee House, Paternoster Row—a strange, old-fashioned tavern, of which I shall have more to say hereafter.

Mr. Brontë took his daughters to the Rue d'Isabelle, Brussels; remained one night at Mr. Jenkins'; and straight returned to his wild Yorkshire village.

What a contrast to that must the Belgian capital have

 presented to those two young women thus left behind! Suffering acutely from every strange and unaccustomed contact—far away from their beloved home, and the dear moors beyond—their indomitable will was their great support. Charlotte's own words, with regard to Emily, are:—

"After the age of twenty, having meantime studied alone with diligence and perseverance, she went with me to an establishment on the continent. The same suffering and conflict ensued, heightened by the strong recoil of her upright heretic and English spirit from the gentle Jesuitry of the foreign and Romish system. Once more she seemed sinking, but this time she rallied through the mere force of resolution: with inward remorse and shame she looked back on her former failure, and resolved to conquer, but the victory cost her dear. She was never happy till she carried her hard-won knowledge back to the remote English village, the old parsonage-house, and desolate Yorkshire hills."

They wanted learning. They came for learning. They would learn. Where they had a distinct purpose to be achieved in intercourse with their fellows, they forgot themselves; at all other times they were miserably shy. Mrs. Jenkins told me that she used to ask them to spend Sundays and holidays with her, until she found that they felt more pain than pleasure from such visits. Emily hardly ever uttered more than a monosyllable. Charlotte was sometimes excited sufficiently

 to speak eloquently and well—on certain subjects; but before her tongue was thus loosened, she had a habit of gradually wheeling round on her chair, so as almost to conceal her face from the person to whom she was speaking.

And yet there was much in Brussels to strike a responsive chord in her powerful imagination. At length she was seeing somewhat of that grand old world of which she had dreamed. As the gay crowds passed by her, so had gay crowds paced those streets for centuries, in all their varying costumes. Every spot told an historic tale, extending back into the fabulous ages when San and Jannika, the aboriginal giant and giantess, looked over the wall, forty feet high, of what is now the Rue Villa Hermosa, and peered down upon the new settlers who were to turn them out of the country in which they had lived since the deluge. The great solemn Cathedral of St. Gudule, the religious paintings, the striking forms and ceremonies of the Romish Church—all made a deep impression on the girls, fresh from the bare walls and simple worship of Haworth Church. And then they were indignant with themselves for having been susceptible of this impression, and their stout Protestant hearts arrayed themselves against the false Duessa that had thus imposed upon them.

The very building they occupied as pupils, in Madame Héger's pensionnat, had its own ghostly train of splendid associations, marching for ever, in shadowy procession, through and through the ancient rooms, and shaded

 alleys of the gardens. From the splendour of to-day in the Rue Royale, if you turn aside, near the statue of the General Beliard, you look down four flights of broad stone steps upon the Rue d'Isabelle. The chimneys of the houses in it are below your feet. Opposite to the lowest flight of steps, there is a large old mansion facing you, with a spacious walled garden behind—and to the right of it. In front of this garden, on the same side as the mansion, and with great boughs of trees sweeping over their lowly roofs, is a row of small, picturesque, old-fashioned cottages, not unlike, in degree and uniformity, to the almhouses so often seen in an English country town. The Rue d'Isabelle looks as though it had been untouched by the innovations of the builder for the last three centuries; and yet any one might drop a stone into it from the back windows of the grand modern hotels in the Rue Royale, built and furnished in the newest Parisian fashion.

In the thirteenth century, the Rue d'Isabelle was called the Fossé-aux-Chiens; and the kennels for the ducal hounds occupied the place where Madame Héger's pensionnat now stands. A hospital (in the ancient large meaning of the word) succeeded to the kennel. The houseless and the poor, perhaps the leprous, were received, by the brethren of a religious order, in a building on this sheltered site; and what had been a fosse for defence, was filled up with herb-gardens and orchards for upwards of a hundred years. Then came the aristocratic guild of the cross-bow men—that company the members whereof were required to prove

LOE. Class 6,. Order:. The is said to thrive best in the desert, and is only attached to the soil by a very slender fibre. Its taste is very sharp and bitter. So sorrow drives us away from the world, detaches our hearts from the earth, and fills them with bitterness. This plant derives its support almost entirely from the air, and assumes very singular and fantastic shapes. Le Vaillant found many species very numerous in the deserts of Namaquoise; some of them six feet long, which were thick and armed with long spines. From the centre of these a light twig shoots forth to the height of a tall tree, all garnished with flowers. Others exalt themselves like the cactus, bristling with thorns. Others, again, are marbled, and seem like serpents creeping upon the earth. Brydone saw the ancient city of Syracuse entirely covered by great aloes in flower; their elegant branches giving to the promontory which bounded the coast, the appearance of an enchanted forest. These plants also prosper well in our gardens. The collection in the museum of Paris is said to be the most complete in the world. These magnificent and monstrous members of the vegetable kingdom are also found in barbarous Africa. There they grow upon the rocks in arid and sandy soil, in the midst of that burning atmosphere in which scarce aught but tigers and lions can breathe and live. Let us bless Providence, then, for raising in our climate verdant bowers over our heads, and for spreading under our feet the soft carpet of grass, ornamented with saffron, violets, and daisies.
