Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 42 II. But it is well known that manuscripts, believed to be ancient, do exist, and in great numbers. We pass, then, in the next place, to consider what facts and arguments there are by which the genuineness of these is to be authenticated. We commence this division of the subject, with two pre liminary remarks. One is, it is obvious, that if in respect to any work regarded as ancient, an unquestionable autograph copy, that is, a copy in the hand-writing of the author can be found, all further question in regard to its genuineness is precluded. But there are few such autographs, even of any modern writer; and none of any ancient one. Yet, as we shall presently attempt to shew, such a near approximation can be made to this degree of certainty, by means of the circum stances attending the original writing, and the preservation and transmission of manuscripts, that the genuineness and antiquity of a work is scarcely less certain, than if the first copy in the hand-writing of the author were still extant.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 21 The first attempt to rescue these honorable and patriotic services from threatening oblivion, was made by Mr Clarke, in his Naval History, compiled during the late war. At that time, the navy of the United States, respectable in force and thorough in discipline, had drawn the public attention to its element, by a series of successes almost unexampled. Curiosity was broadly awake, and eager to turn back to the triumphs Of its earlier days. Mr Clarke has succeeded in retrieving many materials from forgetfulness, which will be useful in illustrating our national history; and he reviews several acts of heroism and enterprise, which might soon have passed beyond the reach of search. Mr Goldsbo rough, in his Naval Chronicle, whose title forms the head of this article, has trod in the same path, with the same lau'd able intentions. His account of revolutionary events is rather meagre and desultory; but this, he says in his preface, did not form a part of his original plan; it is therefore a gratuity, of the scantiness of which we have perhaps no right to com plain. In descending to later times, when we were involved in difficulties with France, and particularly where he comes down to the Tripolitan war, he enters into a fulness of detail, which renders his volume a valuable repository of historical facts, and official statements. During their colonial state, the North Americans were often engaged in maritime warfare, as auxiliaries in the enterprises of the mother country; and in many of them, they were dis(at) About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 144 Doubtless a vast majority of the Republican party, when once they found themselves successful, regretted that instead of the inexperienced backwoodsman, they did not have in the Presi dential chair the scholarly and veteran Seward, or the astute and plausible Chase. In truth, it was mainly because these men were called into his Cabinet that the party gave that confidence to his Administration at the outset that it did. They had the most unswerving confidence in his purity, and almost equal confidence in their skill. They believed him incapable of intentional wrong, and thought his advisers would show him how to do right.

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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 31 The contrast between monarchies and democratic states is in nothing more striking, than in the degrees and amount of political abilities, which they respectively call into action. Men may dispute, if they will, whether liberty be the fostering parent of the arts, and may continue to raise questions respect ing the influence of forms of government on letters; but the turbulent contests, the unsparing and unqualified competition, allowed in popular states, quicken natural talents and furnish every facility and every inducement for their display. At courts the race is not necessarily to the swift; and men are naturally turned aside from the career of the public service, when no scope is furnished them for the full exercise of natu ral powers and the manly struggle for honors.
