Book excerpt: Excerpt from Latter-Day Pamphlets: In One Volume Strange language this for the year 1850, though it is familiar enough to-day, or rather it has only ceased to be so because the very success of its reproofs has now rendered them superfluous. It is not without a melancholy pleasure that one quotes it, if only as a relief from the general impression that the volume, with all its spirit and eloquence and caustic irony, leaves behind it - namely that the prophet's is one of the most perilous of all the profes sions, and that for turning the wisdom of the wise to foolishness there is nothing so disastrously efi'ective as the attempt to predict the mysterious course of the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Latter-Day Pamphlets Not towards it, I say, if so! Unanimity of voting - that will do nothing for us if to. Your ship cannot double Cape Horn by its excellent plans of voting. The ship may vote this and that, above decks and below, in the most harmonious ex quisitely constitutional manner: the ship, to get round Cape Horn, will find a set of conditions already voted for, and fixed with adamantine rigour by the ancient Elemental Powers, who are entirely careless how you vote. If you can, by voting or without voting, ascertain these conditions, and valiantly con form to them, you will get round the Cape: if you cannot, the ruffian Winds will blow you ever back again; the inexor able Icebergs, dumb privy-councillors from Chaos, will nudge you with most chaotic 'admonition you will be flung half frozen on the Patagonian cliffs, or admonished into shivers by your iceberg councillors, and sent sheer down to Davy Jones, and will never get round Cape Horn at all! Unanimity on board ship -yes indeed, the ship's crew may be very unani mous, which doubtless, for the time being, will be very com fortable to the ship's crew, and to their Phantasm Captain if they have one but if the tack they unanimously steer upon is guiding them into the belly of the Abyss, it will not profit them much l - Ships accordingly do not use the ballot-box at all; and they reject the Phantasm species of Captains: one wishes much some other Entities, - since all entities lie under the same rigorous set oflaws, - could be brought to show as much wis dom, and sense at least of self-preservation, the first command of Nature. Phantasm Captains with unanimous votings: this is considered to be all the law and all the prophets, at present. Ifa man could shake-out of his mind the universal noise rofpolitical doctors in this generation and in the last generation or two, and consider the matter face to face, with his own sin cere intelligence looking at it, I venture to say he would find this a very extraordinary method 0! Navigating, whether in the Straits of Magellan or the undiscovered Sea of Time. To pro sper in this world, to gain felicity, victory and improvement, either for a man or a nation, there is but one thing requisite, That the man or nation can discern what the true regulations of the Universe are in regard to him and his pursuit, and can faithfully and steadfastly follow these. These will lead him to victory; whoever it may be that sets him in the way of these, - were it Russian Autocrat, Chartist Parliament, Grand Lama.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sartor Resartus and Latter-Day Pamphlets Considering our present advanced state of culture, and how the Torch of Science has now been brandished and borne about, with more or less effect, for five-thousand years and upwards; how, in these times especially, not only the Torch still burns, and perhaps more fiercely than ever, but innumerable Rush-lights, and Sulphur-matches, kindled thereat, are also glancing in every direction, so that not the smallest cranny or doghole in Nature or Art can remain unilluminated, - it might strike the reflective mind with some surprise that hitherto little or nothing of a fundamental character, whether in the way of Philosophy or History, has been written on the subject of Clothes. Our Theory of Gravitation is as good as perfect: Lagrange, it is well known, has proved that the Planetary System, on this scheme, will endure forever; Laplace, still more cunningly, even guesses that it could not have been made on any other scheme. Whereby, at least, our nautical Logbooks can be better kept; and water-transport of all kinds has grown more commodious.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Latter-Day Pamphlets: Translations From Musaeus, Tieck, Richter The following Occasional Discourse, delivered by we know not whom, and of date seemingly above a year back, may perhaps be welcome to here and there a speculative reader. It comes to us, - no speaker named, no time or place assigned, no commentary of any sort given, - in the handwriting of the so-called "Doctor," properly "Absconded Reporter," Dr. Phelim M'Quirk, whose singular powers of reporting, and also whose debts, extravagancies and sorrowful insidious finance-operations, now winded-up by a sudden disappearance, to the grief of many poor tradespeople, are making too much noise in the police-offices at present! Of M'Quirk's composition we by no means suppose it to be; but from M'Quirk, as the last traceable source, it comes to us; - offered, in fact, by his respectable unfortunate landlady, desirous to make-up part of her losses in this way. To absconded reporters who bilk their lodgings, we have of course no account to give: but if the Speaker be of any eminence or substantiality, and feel himself aggrieved by the transaction, let him understand that such, and such only, is our connexion with him or his affairs. As the Colonial and Negro Question is still alive, and likely to grow livelier for some time, we have accepted the Article, at a cheap market-rate; and give it publicity, without in the least committing ourselves to the strange doctrines and notions shadowed-forth in it. Doctrines and notions which, we rather suspect, are pretty much in a "minority of one," in the present era of the world! Here, sure enough, are peculiar views of the Bights of Negroes; involving, it is probable, peculiar ditto of innumerable other rights, duties, expectations, wrongs and disappointments, much argued of, by logic and by grape-shot, in these emancipated epochs of the human mind! - Silence now, however; and let the Speaker himself enter. My Philanthropic Friends, - It is my painful duty to address some words to you, this evening, on the Rights of Negroes.
