Book excerpt: Excerpt from Personal Reminiscences of Eminent Men, Vol. 1 of 3 The interest of biography depends, in many cases, and in no light degree, upon facts, many of which may be trivial, but that still display character. Of these, whether numerous or scanty, the writer of a biography must often combine his labours, however heterogeneous such materials may happen to be, and he must work out of them a whole as perfect as they will permit him to do. A work of a similar nature to the present, relat ing incidentally to character as far as the writer might be able to speak personally, may thus not only be interesting, but useful.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Men and Memories: Personal Reminiscences In presenting this volume to the public, it is but just to the memory of the author, as well as due to many of his friends, that a word of explanation should be given of its apparent desultoriness. The original plan of "Men and Memories" was laid out in 1891, and the first article written, at my own urgent insistence. Mr. Young's personal acquaintance with eminent men, his interesting experiences and reminiscences seemed too valuable to be lost; and after much persuasion, he began the series with the article upon "Lincoln." His original scheme included "Recollections of Charles Sumner," - "Wendell Phillips," - "James G. Blaine and his Times," - longer papers upon "Horace Greeley," - "The Cary Sisters" and "Tribune Days," - "Edwin Booth and the American Stage during the past 35 years." Together with "Reminiscences of 'English Friends, '" - among whom were "Robert Browning," - "Wilkie Collins," - "George Eliot," - "William Black," - "Miss Mu-lock" (Mrs. Craik), - and "Henry Irving and His Influence upon Acting." Mr. Young's original plan was never carried out. Many duties pressed, and while he was still making notes upon those who had passed on, other friends, near at hand, were falling from the ranks.

Excerpt: ... an excellent mode of paying him for his opposition to " their " measures, no matter how injurious they might be to the nation from the want of capacity those measures displayed. Could a vindictive unintellectual body, as they were, neglect the opportunity 1 It was too good to be lost. Lord Ellenborough, a sort of mundane Rhadamanthus, was then upon the bench; a most opportune thing. I see his imperious bearing there now, and his stern deportment; those were subjects of common remark. His expressions, too, where at least the language of a gentleman was expected, as when he said a certain thing he was desirous of contradicting, was " false as hell." Small things depict the characters of men. The becoming temper of a judge to all is needful and politic, though he should be of no party. Admirable, thought the ministry, was the opportunity for avenging Lord Cochrane's defiance of them, through his opposition to their measures, and his display of their blunders. The temper of Ellenborough overcame all prudence. It was quite "h la Jeffries." In summing up, to bear as hard as possible against the noble lord, he said that De Beranger had returned to town from perpetrating the hoax, and entered Lord Cochrane's house with all his military decorations on, or words to that effect. Thus insinuating that Lord Cochrane so received the baron, and therefore must have had a hand in the transaction. Of this there was not one tittle of evidence whether his lordship were concerned or not. All the newspapers, on all sides, had reported the fact alike. No one differed, and it became a matter of public comment. The Law Reporter " alone," aware of the slip, --one of the right sort no doubt, --foisted in an "if," either sensible of the glaring error, or by...

There is a body of Christians in the United States of America denominated "Universalists." They are divided into two sects or divisions, one differing little from some of the Unitarians in this country, the other almost peculiar to the American States. One of these sects believes in the ultimate salvation of all men; the other, with distinctions we cannot exactly define, holds a doctrine somewhat similar, except that the wicked who die in their sins will be punished for them--"Confined to fast in fires Till the foule crimes done in the dayes of nature Are burnt and purged away!" So far, then, has this doctrine spread--a doctrine so opposed to the priest-invented or adopted word in English which has become an adjuration, for the Scripture word from the Latin is " condemn." The doctrine to which I allude--Universalism--is become, from its number of disciples in the United States, the fourth in the numerical order of its followers. Many, also, who are of other denominations, hold that one tenet with their own. There are Episcopalians, too, who hold that single tenet of the Universalists, but no other. John Murray of Boston, in the United States, was a man of enthusiastic temperament, great piety, endowed with natural eloquence, ardent almost to enthusiasm, unwavering, philosophical, and ever zealous to do good. In some respects his sentiments were different from others of his persuasion; but of his pure motives, unrelaxing zeal, un Condemno and damno. ThuB--Condemnabo eodem ego te crimine. Cic. from con and damno--damno, to condemn, meaning precisely the same; but "to damn" in English has been converted by middle-age priestcraft or dark times into burning in hell-flames, and the sense thus given is the vilest curse of...
