Excerpt: ...over the army; a requisition the more readily granted as, besides his undoubted ability and integrity, he had expended considerable sums from his private purse in the service of the King of Spain." The besieged soon felt the effects of the presence of so able and skilful a captain, assisted as he was by the most experienced engineers in Europe, who applied their efforts successfully to the formation of roads for the passage of his artillery over the drowned lands, and to the invention of new engines and methods of attack. The garrison had been forced, within the last six months, to abandon, one after another, nearly all their outposts, and irreparable damage had been done upon the fortifications of the town itself; while the rapid succession of governors prevented either promptitude or stability in their measures of defence. Three, Huchtenbroek, Gistelle, and John van Loehn, were slain within a short time of each other; Uytenhove, who followed, was obliged to retire desperately wounded, and the last, the Sieur de Marquette, accepted the charge, after this dangerous post of honour had been some time vacant. Spinola, at length, gained possession of the sand-hill on the west side, from Whence he was able to carry his mines to the ramparts of the old town; when, hopeless of defending this quarter, the besieged divided it from 1604 the new town by a line of flanked bastions, carrying another line from thence to the eastern harbour; and flattered themselves that they had rendered the remainder of the town capable of a renewed and prolonged resistance.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Holland, From the Beginning of the Tenth to the End of the Eighteenth Century, Vol. 1 AT a period such as the present, when the general appetite for knowledge is at once quickened and satiated by all that is pungent in wit, delicate in sentiment, rich in learning, and novel in science - when, by the plastic hand of modern invention, history herself is made to suit the alluring garb of romance - it is with diflidence that I solicit attention to a work which has nothing but fidelity to recommend it, and of which the subject, deeply interesting in itself, but deficient perhaps in some of the subsidiary attractions incidental to historical narrative, requires a pen of more than ordinary ability to do it justice. It is not an overweening vanity or presumption that has prompted me on this occasion; not that, unawed by the high and grave duties of an historian, I have ventured upon them in wanton recklessness, or blind ignorance of my own incapacity, or touched without trem bling the very lowest hem of the mantle of Livy and Tacitus; but in the conviction that it is the duty of every one to cast his mite, however humble, into the treasury of human knowledge; in the consciousness that if I shall have done little to enlighten, I have in no one instance wilfully con tributed to the propagation or continuance of error; in the h0pe of proving useful to those who, like myself, have felt the disadvantage to which the English reader of history is subject, of knowing nothing of the internal government, constitution, laws, and habits of a people, whose name, celebrated throughout the world, is to be met with on nearly every page of the history of Europe. It is with the view of presenting this knowledge in a compendious form that the following Work has been composed, of which, as I have said.
