"A Little after eleven o'clock, on the night following our elections in this place," says a letter from Cincinnati, written in October, 1837, "I was called to the door by a very vigorous rapping. It was some one in great haste to know the result of the days work, and who had mistaken our house for the one in which the votes were to be counted. After directing him aright, I threw the door open a little wider, that I might see what young patriot this was, that so keenly desired to know the state of parties. The light of the hall lamp fell full on his face. It was Hezekiah Flint, one of the first band of white men, that ever came to reside in the wilds of Ohio." Such facts are startling.

Book The North American Review  Vol  54  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The North American Review Vol 54 Classic Reprint written by and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 54 The barrens are moved over by troops with comparative fa cility, but, being everywhere intersected by spurs of hum mocks, or by the hummocks themselves, no march of many hours can be made in any section of the territory, that does not encounter impediments which obstruct, delay, or, per haps, entirely turn it aside. Besides, in the more southern portions of the peninsula, there are cypress swamps, the most impracticable of all the embarrassments that beset military Operations in Florida. The cypress has a base that spreads like a trumpet's mouth, and, though the trees may stand many feet apart, they almost crowd at the surface of the earth; while nearly every interstice is filled up by cypress knees, which are Sharp, slender, and short cones, seemingly set there like artificial obstructions to a march. These swamps are moreover mostly inundated, as their name bespeaks. In this enumeration of difficulties, we must not forget the saw-grass and saw-palmetto, both of which have ser rated edges, made harsh and unyielding by the mineral sub stance they take up in their growth, which tear the clothes, and lacerate the legs and feet of the soldiers moving through them, to a degree that can scarcely be comprehended by those who have not seen or felt their effects. The trace of a column through these lets and hinderances has often been marked by blood and the tatters of clothing.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 242: Founded 1815 There are really three principal issues which, in simple terms, can be described as the economic issue, the legal issue, and the ethical issue. Recovery could be used as an alternative name for the first. It is only natural to find that the Administration, emulating King Canute, claims credit for it. No one with eyes and common sense can deny that in March 1933, American business was as sick as it Could be and that during the intervening three and a half years its health has been restored to a considerable extent.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 57 To dig from an almost forgotten grave the intellectual character of Thomas Paine, the object of violent obloquy during life, and of contumely after death, may not be without its uses in these our times. It may be done now without offence; it may be done, we think, without injustice; without offence, - for we are not aware of the existence of any man, woman, or child, any men or set of men, whom criticism on such a theme can wound. Many a teacher of pernicious doctrine has, by the purity of his domestic and social relations, left behind him a sort of protective character. There are surviving relatives and friends, or those who know surviving relatives and friends, who disarm even just criticism, and, standing around the grave, claim pity for themselves, if not for the poor inhabitants below. But Paine had none of these. He was childless, and friendless. Nor is there a human being in this wide world, we verily believe, who cares a jot for him or his memory. There was, perhaps, to use one of his own phrases, something like "sentimental union" between him and the sparse congregation of freethinkers who looked to him in life as an oracle. But it was a "sentimental union" in its strictest sense. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book The North American Review  Vol  45  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The North American Review Vol 45 Classic Reprint written by and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 45 To speak correctly, it was their imperfect civilization, their ignorance of the means and the subjects of communication, which thus kept them asunder. Now, on the contrary, a change in the domestic institutions of one country can hardly be effected, without a corresponding agitation in those of its neighbours. A treaty of alliance can scarcely be adjusted, without the intervention of a general congress. The sword cannot be unsheathed in one part of Christendom, without thousands leaping from their scabbards in every other. The whole system is bound together by as nice sympathies, as if animated by a common pulse; and the remotest countries of Europe are brought into contiguity as intimate, as were in ancient times the provinces of a single monarchy. This intimate association has been prodigiously increased, of late years, by the unprecedented discoveries which science has made, for facilitating intercommunication. The inhabitant of Great Britain, that "ultima Thule" of the ancients, can now run down to the extremity of Italy, in less time than it took Horace to go from Rome to Brundusium. A steamboat of fashionable tourists will touch at all the places of note in the Iliad and Odyssey, in fewer weeks than it would have cost years to an ancient Argonaut, or a crusader of the Middle Ages. Every one, of course, travels, and almost every capital and noted watering place on the continent swarms with its thousands, and Paris with its tens of thousands of itinerant Cockneys, many of whom, perhaps, have not wandered beyond the sound of Bow bells, in their own little island. Few of these adventurers are so dull, as not to be quickened into something like curiosity, respecting the language and institutions of the strange people, among whom they are thrown; while the better sort, and more intelligent, are led to study more carefully the new forms, whether in arts or letters, under which human genius is unveiled to them. The effect of all this is especially visible, in the reforms introduced into the modern systems of education. In both the universities recently established in London, the apparatus for instruction, instead of being limited to the ancient tongues, is extended to the whole circle of modern literature; and the editorial labors of many of the professors show that they do not sleep on their posts.
