Download or read book Addresses Speeches Lectures and Letters Upon Various Subjects Classic Reprint written by Hugh McCulloch and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-11 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Addresses, Speeches, Lectures, and Letters Upon Various Subjects The Addresses, Speeches, Lectures, etc., etc., which appear in this volume have been selected from many others, and are intended to be preserved in this form for the use of those who, years hence, may be inter ested in what is substantially a record of my feelings and views upon important subjects in very interesting periods of our national history. The addresses delivered at Fort Wayne, Ind., in 1861 and 1865 can hardly fail, at any time, to be inter esting, as they present the prevailing sentiment of the people of the Northern States at the commencement and the close of the civil war. The letters, which were written in London for the New York T rz'bnne, were copied by a great many newspapers, and very widely circulated and favorably commented upon in all parts of the country. They were written and the Cambridge lectures were delivered when financial and economic questions were engaging public attention - questions that have lost none of their interest - the definite solution of which seems to be far in the future.

Download or read book Kentucky Eloquence Past and Present written by Bennett Henderson Young and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-04 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Kentucky Eloquence, Past and Present: Library of Orations, After-Dinner Speeches, Popular and Classic Lectures, Addresses and Poetry With the certainty of financial loss, with sure knowledge of much labor, and the full expectation of some adverse criticism, the preparation of this book was undertaken. The hope that, as a son of my beloved State, I might add one leaf to her crown of glory is ample compensation for all that is involved in such a task. Kentucky's sons and daughters have not dared, fought, struggled, toiled, or lived in vain. A distinctive character has been evolved; a superb model of womanhood and manhood has been created, and the name Kentuckian ever carries with it, in all the known world, a peculiarly fascinating and unique distinction. Like the sun, it may here and there have a spot, but these only bring out the effulgence and splendor of the undimmed surface. Ignoring the unparalleled difficulties, moved by an unmeasurable courage, prompted by a spirit of adventure, and quickened by a love of conquest, the pioneer people of Kentucky marched over the Alleghany mountains into the wonderlands of the most attractive hunting grounds ever discovered by man, and planted themselves, unbidden and unwelcomed, amid the preserves of the savages, who, startled by this unexpected and daring invasion, lost no time in boldly defending this aggression, or punishing this defiance of their hereditary rights. Hitherto immigration had either crossed the ocean and, with it as a base, spread inland, or, by slow degrees, moved by measured tread and ever-expanding lines into the wilderness or pre-empted lands, forcing back by progressive steps all the hindrances the red man or his God might erect to stay its advance.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Complete Works, Vol. 1: Comprising Sermons, Letters, Lectures, Speeches, Etc Having heard many persons, admirers of the late Archbishop Hughes, express a wish that his public lectures, letters and speeches might be collected and published in book form, the compiler of this volume has, after some deliberation, undertaken the task, which, he trusts, will prove acceptable to the Catholic community in general. The following pages are the first installment, and will be immediately followed by another volume of about the same size, which will complete the work. The biographical sketch merely touches upon the principal events in His Grace's career, but is the most complete one yet published. The speeches of His Grace on the School Question - a question which first brought him prominently before the New York public - will, no doubt, be read with pleasure as well as profit by thousands who have heard of these great efforts of Dr. Hughes, but who have had no chance heretofore of reading them. His speeches before the Board of Aldermen, as well as his great Three Days' Speech in Carroll Hall on this question, will be found in this volume in full. Other important documents are also given entire. The concluding volume will also contain important writings of Archbishop Hughes, which should be read by every Catholic in the land.

This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Speeches, Addresses, and Occasional Sermons, Vol. 1 of 3 I have collected in these volumes several Speeches, Addresses and occasional Sermons, which I have delivered at various times during the last seven years. Most of them were prepared for some special emergency: only two papers, that on "The Relation of Jesus to his Age and the Ages," and that on "Immortal Life," were written without reference to some such emergency. All of them have been printed before, excepting the sermon "Of General Taylor," and the address on "The American Scholar;" some have been several times reprinted. I do not know that they are worthy of republication in this permanent form, but the leading ideas of these volumes are very dear to me, and are sure to live as long as the human race shall continue. So I have published a small edition, hoping that the truths which I know are contained in these pages will do a service long after the writer, and the-occasion of their utterance, have passed off and been forgot. I offer them to whom they may concern. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Christ of the Church written by James Vincent Coombs and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10-19 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Christ of the Church: Sermons, Lectures and Illustrations The man of Tarsus, breathing threatening and slaughter, was on his way to Damascus, When Jesus appeared unto him and said, Why do you persecute me Who are you was the reply. I am Jesus, Whom you persecute. Paul was startled. When had he persecuted Jesus? To his wonder and amazement, he realized that Jesus is living and is identified With the church, and that to persecute the church is to persecute the Christ of the church. From that time until his death he had but two themes, the church, and the Christ of the church. He ransacked his vocabulary of words to find figures to exalt, adorn and beautify the church. In his most matchless ights of oratory, his theme was the church. He saw the church as the household of God, the whole family in heaven and earth, the temple of God, the body of Christ, the pillar of truth, and last the loving bride of the Redeemer. It dawned upon him that to ignore the church is to ignore the Christ of the church, and to persecute the church is to persecute the Christ. Happy are we if we see these great truths as Paul saw them. I have no sympathy With the sentiment that applauds the name of Christ and hisses the church. To hiss the church is to hiss the Christ of the church. Neither do I have any patience with that other sentiment that is often manifested in some of our union revivals, that a man can be a Chris tian and not in the church. It is nothing un usual to hear men say, Oh, yes, I am a Chris tian, but not a member of the church. That is false; every Christian on earth is in the church. To be a Christian is to be in the body of Christ, the church. To ignore the church is to ignore the Christ of the church, to neglect the church is to neglect Christ, and to be out of the church is to be out of Christ. The church is a divine institution, perfect and above criticism. The church includes all who are followers of Christ, and excludes all who are not. The word church, in the New Testament, refers to all believers in Christ. Until Paul came exalting the church in figures, the divine writers referred to it merely as the church. It was not modified.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nova Britannia: Or, Our New Canadian Dominion Foreshadowed; Being a Series of Lectures, Speeches and Addresses The ensuing lectures have been long out of print. Even at this late day I have frequent applications for copies of them, and it is but a short time since I w#s applied to for copies to be forwarded to the Australian Government. As they deal with questions of permanent importance, I have decided upon their republication. My first intention was to recast and modernize them, but upon reflection I have decided to reissue them in their original form - with the exception of a few unimportant verbal alterations - and accompanied by foot-notes shewing the marvellous progress of our country during the years which have elapsed since the lectures were first prepared. A careful perusal of the text and notes will satisfy any reader that the hopes of Canadians as to the future of the Dominion rest on a solid and substantial basis. It will be seen that much of what I anticipated twenty years ago has come to pass. And the end is not yet. Canada to-day enjoys her full share of participation in the advancement which is so striking a feature of the present age, and I doubt not that she will in the future continue to be what I regarded her in the comparatively remote past - "one of the brightest jewels in the British Crown." I have added a number of speeches and addresses delivered at various times in the course of my public career.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Autobiography, Collateral Reminiscences, Arguments in Important Causes, Speeches, Addresses, Lectures and Other Writings, Vol. 1 of 2 My life has been mainly that of a laborious, persevering, earnest lawyer, and my studies have been principally directed to obtaining success in my profession. Absorbing and exact ing as that profession always is, it was not allowed, however, entirely to engross me. It was never permitted to interfere with the discharge of my duty as a citizen. At a very early period of life, and some years before being entitled to vote indeed, as soon as I understood the nature of our Government, the importance of the duty of exercising the right of suffrage intelligently was deeply impressed upon me, and I have never failed to discharge that duty. By classical and general read ing, I increased my knowledge, strove to keep up with the progress of science, arts, and literature, and endeavored, as opportunity offered, by addresses, lectures, and writings, to benefit and improve my fellow-men.
