Book The North American Review  1834  Vol  38  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The North American Review 1834 Vol 38 Classic Reprint written by UNKNOWN. AUTHOR and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-12-09 with total page 566 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North American Review, 1834, Vol. 38 Our readers may naturally doubt whether the state of the religious world be equally favorable to impartiality, but we trust that there is more enlargement of mind than in former days, since controversies, though not more gentle than formerly, are argued on more liberal and enlightened grounds. But whetherthis be so or not, it is evident that a fair View of the subject of Cowper's depression need not give offence to any religious party. Hayley and others, who did not agree with Cowper in his sentiments, have generally described his com plaint as religious despondency a phrase which has given much offence to those who hold those Opinions. Even Mont gomery, who, one would think, lived far enough from the scene of action to be able to keep his temper, expresses himself thus: 'in spite of unanswerable confutations of the ignorant and malignant falsehood, the enemies of Christian truth persevere in asserting that too much religion made poor Cowper mad. If they be sincere, they are themselves under the strongest delusion; and it will be well ifit prove not, on their part, a wilful one, - it will be well if they have not reached that last perversity of human reason, to believe a falsehood of their own invention - and more equally in the spirit of the Gospel.

Book The North American Review  Vol  78  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The North American Review Vol 78 Classic Reprint written by and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-18 with total page 570 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 78 This work betrays still other luculent tokens of its authors nationality. The Anglo-Saxon mind builds upon a broad basis of facts or phenomena successive series of generalizations, pyramid-wise, and culminating in some single law of matter or of mind. The German inverts the pyramid, - reasons from premises intangibly minute to theories that span the universe. With him, a possible indication is often an unanswerable argument; and immense, top-heavy piles of ratiocination rest on a mere hairs breadth of assumed or half-proved fact. Bunsen's reasoning is often of this class; and acquiescence in his conclusions not infrequently demands a voluntary ignoring of the lower strata of the lofty, yet com pact fabric. It is this habit of the German mind, that fits it so eminently for the obscurer departments of literary and historical research. In the very nature of things, an isolated event must often leave only the slightest and most question able tokens of its authenticity, or an unofficial document, only the faintest traces of its authorship and its purpose. A strong effort of the imagination is needed, at once to develop the capacities of the hypothesis thus feebly indicated, and to exclude the score of possible theories which might equally satisfy all the conditions of the problem. But to the vision which can thus follow up in the dark the merest sand-tracks of prob ability, a blaze of light is dazzling and bewildering; and as to truths and facts patent to all the rest of the world, German philosophy and theology are prone to grope in incurable blindness. But as to the salient doctrines, the canonical records, and the historical evidence of Christianity, Bunsen is free from the sceptical tendencies of his nation. He is a man of sincere faith and profound religious reverence. His subtlety is exercised, not in undermining the foundations, but in strengthening the buttresses, of evangelical truth. His intellectual instincts are all in the direction of Christian belief, and his earnestness in its behalf, in numerous instances, sup plies the almost invisible thread of inference and hypothetical reasoning.

The rules of the House were suspended, and the resolution passed on the very day of its introduction. No less than two hun dred and thirty-three votes were recorded in its favor. Only eigh teen members voted against it. That reiterated vociferation accomplished the purpose for which it was designed. It defeated the renomination of General Grant in 1876.

Book The North American Review  Vol  144  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The North American Review Vol 144 Classic Reprint written by Allen Thorndike Rice and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 674 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 144 The next generation will find it hard to believe that of the four men living at the outbreak of the war who had occupied the presidential chair not one tendered his support to the National cause, or offered sympathy or patriotic counsel to his overburdened successor at the head of the Government. It will be deemed almost incredible that during the whole four years of that terrible struggle not one of these men, all of whom were citizens of Northern States, made any public utterance intended to strengthen the Union cause or indeed any utterance at all upon the subject, except in one case, when compelled by public clamor to make a lame excuse for his own apathy. Already it is hard to realize that when the conflict drew to its close one of these men refused to decorate his house in honor of our final tri-victory, or display the emblems of mourning on the death of the great leader whose marvelous tact and unfailing steadfastness had brought us through those years of unmatched peril. Still more difficult will it be for posterity to understand that our ex-Presidents were simply types of a very large element of our people. These very naturally desired the war, its causes and overshadowing glories to be forgotten just as soon as possible. They made haste, therefore, to turn the public attention into other channels and to clamor for oblivion in regard to the past. There was another and most peculiar influence tending in this direction. The political organization then having control of the country had in it two elements which looked with especial disfavor on the ascendency within itself of those whose fame rested on military renown. One of these was what was known as the "Abolition Element." These men regarded themselves as, in a sense, the possessors of an exclusive proprietary interest in the Republican party of that day, and thought that the laurels of its first administration, both civic and military, ought to relate back to them as the ultimate cause, rather than rest upon the heads of the immediate agents. Such men as Chase, Sumner, Seward, Greeley, and a host of lesser lights, felt deeply aggrieved at being overshadowed by men like Lincoln, Grant, Sherman, and Stanton, and other military leaders whom they regarded, if not us trespassers on their demesne, at least as men who had merely adopted their ideas and reaped advantage from their labors.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 147 Concord School of Philosophy by one of the keen newspaper men who have made American wit a modern discovery. The Concord students spent their time, he said. In trying to scrute the inscrutable and poss the impossible. The controversy in which Colonel Ingersoll has been the defendant is, I venture to say, not upon his part alone, an attempt to poss the impossible. Tactically considered, the discussion has to a marked extent fol lowed that simple military expedient known as firing wild. It strikes me that the chief reason for this is one for which no indi vidual party to the encounter can be held responsible least of all, the distinguished statesman whose scholarship, dignity, and repose have given value to the conflict if they have not won the day.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 161: July, 1895 We must be a little wary when Brander Matthews tells us that Cooper's books reveal an extraordinary fulness of invention. As a rule, I am quite willing to accept Brander Matthews's literarv judgments and applaud his lucid and graceful phrasing of them but that particular statement needs to be taken with a few tons of salt. Bless your heart, Cooper hadn't any more invention than a horse; and I don't mean a high class horse, either; I mean a clothes-horse. It would be very difficult to find a really clever situation in Cooper's books and still more difficult to find one of any kind which he has failed to render absurd by his handling of it. Look at the episodes of the caves i and at the cele brated scuffle between Maqua and those others on the table-land a few days later and at Hurry Harry's queer water-transit from the castle to the ark and at Deerslayer's half hour with his first corpse and at the quarrel between Hurry Harry and Deerslayer later and at - but choose for yourself you can't go amiss.
