Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Thelephoraceae of North America Europe. In the later pages names of the many botanists who have participated in this work by the contribution of speci mens from their respective regions are given in connection with the specimens. I feel my obligation to each of these cor respondents. Having become thoroughly familiar with the species of a family of fungi, one then faces the task of deciding under what genera they shall be grouped in order that others may more easily recognize them. Our studies in systematic botany and the accumulations of plants in herbaria are primarily for the purpose of enabling those who wish to Obtain information about any particular plant, however Obscure, to determine its name accurately and so be in a position to get at the world's literature and knowledge concerning that species; and also to enable botanists so to entitle and index their researches that the results will be more available to the world at large. Stability in the nomenclature of plants is therefore important, and revo lutionary changes in generic conceptions should not be lightly and frequently made. Whenever one proposes new genera to supersede a well-established genus which has satisfactorily embraced the related species of the world, the burden of proof should be on the one who makes the change to demonstrate that the advantages from the innovation will more than com pensate for the confusion which would result as well as for the loss of knowledge indexed under the superseded name.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of North America It has been the constant aim of the author to preserve a careful impartiality in dealing with matters of difference of view, and to give no judgment for which he has not been able to offer a sanctioning fact for its source. The men of those times were, like the men of the present, serious and in the main sincere, and faced complex problems for whose solutions they could not furnish the needed wisdom. The new day which Jefferson introduced, and to which Madison fell heir, was indeed unique. While it grew out of the old and was organically part of the early life of the nation, it was very properly regarded by many as in a true sense another era. The story of the period might well be entitled: How democracy interpreted nationality. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from North America And now touching t is war which had broken out between the N orth and South before I left England. I would wish to explain what my feelings were; or rather what I believe the general feelings of England to have been, before I found myself amen the people by whom it was being waged. It is very difiiclfit for the people of any one nation to realize the litiosl relations of another, and to chew the end and digest e bear ings of those external politics But it is unjust in the one to deeide upon the political aspirations and domgs of that other without such understanding. Constantl as the name of France is in our mouth, comparatively few 'shmen understand the way in which France is governed; - t at is, how far absolute despotism prevails. And how far the power of the one ruler is tempered, or, as it may be, hampered by the voices and influ ence of others. And as regards England, how seldom is it that in common society a foreigner is met who comprehends the nap ture of her political arrangements! To a Frenchman, - I do not of course include eat men who have made the subject a study, - bnt to the 0 ins intelligent Frenchman the thin is.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from North America, Vol. 1 IT has been the ambition of my literary life to write a book about the United States, and I had made up my mind to visit the country with this object before the intestine troubles of the United States government had commenced. I have not allowed the division among the States and the breaking out of civil war to interfere with my intention; but I should not purposely have chosen this period either for my book or for my visit. I say so much, in order that it may not be supposed that it is my special purpose to write an account of the struggle as far as it has yet been carried. My wish 1s to describe, as well as I can, the present social and political state of the country. This I should have at tempted, with more personal satisfaction in the work, had there been no disruption between the North and South; but I have not allowed that disruption to deter me from an oh jcet which, if it were delayed, might probably neve1 be car ried out. I am therefore forced to take the subject in its p1esent condition, and being so forced I must write of the war, of the causes which have led to it, and of its probable termination. But I wish it to be understood that it was not my selected task to do so, and is not now my primary object.

The instructions sent to Erskine were shown to the American minister at London, in extenso, and it is hardly to be supposed that he could have failed to communicate their contents to the government at Washington. And on the other hand, if Madison and his Secretary were actually ignorant on this point, no good excuse can be presented for them - they ought to have known the extent of the minister's powers before they entered upon the negotiation.

The material progress of the people save in isolated instances, runs in the directions, even if it does not follow the grooves, established by the years of the first period of Growth; policies strike out independent orbits; measures burst the trammels set upon them during the years ending with 18 37 - it is the era of change in political movements.

Himself a native of the South and in close touch with the tremendous advance that has excited well-nigh as great admiration as did the heroism of the South in the Civil War, an active participant, indeed, in the movement that has made the South of to-day, he is peculiarly fitted to write upon the subject assigned to him. His personal knowledge has given him the point of view of the Southerner, and the training in analytical investigation which enabled him to produce the histories associated with his name has caused him to extend his field of observation to all accessible data.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Second Visit to the United States of North America, Vol. 1 of 2 To account for'the toleration prevailing in New England and the states chie y peopled from thence, we must refer to a com bination of many favorable circumstances, some of them of ancient date, and derived from the times of the first Puritan settlers. To these I shall have many opportunities of alluding in the sequel but I shall mention now a more modern cause, the effect of which was brought vividly before my mind, in conversations with sev eral lawyers of Maine, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts, whom I fell in with on this tour. I mean the reaction against the extreme Calvinism of the church first established in this part of America, a movement which has had a powerful tendency to subdue and mitigate sectarian bitterness. In order to give me some idea of the length to which the old Calvinistic doctrines were instilled into the infant mind, one of my companions pre sented me with a curious poem, called the Day of Doom.
