# The New York Times/1896/5/17/Laborers Strike in Rotterdam

New York Times, written May 16, 1896 - published the following day.
Laborers Strike in Rotterdam
Military Ordered Out to Preserve the Peace
    Rotterdam, May 16
Six thousand dock laborers in this city have gone on strike because of a reduction in their wages, and four battalions of the National Guard have been called out as a precaution against any riotous demonstrations on the part of the strikers. Three gunboats are also lying opposite the city in readiness for action should their services be required to protect the shipping.
Mr. Joseph Havelock Wilson, member of the British House of Commons for Middleborough, who is now in Rotterdam, escorted by a detachment of soldiers, had an interview with the Mayor and Chief of Police this morning.
The seamen on board the British vessels lying at this port last evening resolved that they would refuse to comply with the demand they perform the work of the strikers in loading and discharging cargo, and the consequence is that fifty steamers are detained here.

# The New York Times/1897/9/9/Senator Gallinger's Reply

From The New York Times of September 9, 1897.
SENATOR GALLINGER'S REPLY.
New Hampshire Man Makes Public an Open Letter to Carl Schurz on Civil Service Reform.
CONCORD, N. H., Sept. 8. — Senator J. H. Gallinger of New Hampshire has made public an open letter in reply to a communication from Carl Schurz, recently published, in which Mr. Schurz took issue with Mr. Gallinger on statements made by the latter bearing on civil service reform.
Mr. Gallinger's letter contains long quotations from James G. Blaine and others, giving, as Senator Gallinger says, the estimate of contemporaries in public life of Mr. Schurz, of the latter's “character and fidelity to principle,” each of which contained many cutting references to Mr. Schurz's political career.
Continuing, Senator Gallinger speaks of himself in much the same strain, and charges Mr. Schurz with many acts of political disloyalty.
“In regard to civil service reform,” Senator Gallinger says, “as the Republican Party gave to the country the civil service law, that party is its best interpreter.
“At best the present interpretation of the present civil service law is not a fundamental political tenet, but simply a question of opinion.
“If you will carefully read the plank in the last Republican platform, which you quote in your letter, you will observe that it demand that ‘it (the civil service law) shall be thoroughly and honestly enforced.’ That is the very issue I have raised. I have contended, and still contend, that Grover Cleveland did not honestly enforce the law, but prostituted it to partisan ends, amid the applause of men who claim superior morality in public affairs over that professed by their neighbors.”

# The Portuguese Expedition to Abyssinia in 1541–1543/Chapter XXI

Hakluyt Society second series no. X
[74]

## Of the Reception the Portuguese gave the Preste; and of how after the Meetings we determined to all go and revenge the Death of D. Christovão.

When we heard that the Preste was at the foot of the hill we went to receive him, a Mass Priest who was with us bearing in his hands the banner of Compassion. When we reached him, seeing us like this, and so few in number, and hearing of the death of D. Christovão and of our defeat, he showed such affliction as was to be anticipated, for he came full of desire to see D. Christovão from the fame that had reached him; and the affliction he showed, surely for a son and heir he would not have shown more. He gave us all much honour and welcome, with princely words, telling us not to feel strangers in that country, but to look on it as our own, for the kingdom and he himself belonged to the King, our lord, and his brother. He at once provided us with all necessaries, gave us all mules to ride – for, after the late defeat, we had come here on foot — he gave to all, too, silken tunics and breeches, for such is the country wear, to every two men a tent, and servants in abundance to attend us, carpets and mattresses, and all we needed. We were here all December, both because the Preste wished to celebrate Christmas here, and also to collect the men who daily flocked to him: there assembled here eight thousand foot and five hundred horse. When we saw this force we went to the Preste, and begged him to help us to avenge the death of D. Christovão. The Preste, although he desired this, still was very fearful, as we were so few; but he determined to attempt it, and sent to summon the Portuguese who had fled to the territory of the Barnaguais, and to fetch the arms D. Christovão had left on the hill where we found the Queen, where as the [75] place was secure, he left our surplus weapons, which were a great help to us, as we had now but very few. During this time we made a good deal of powder, as the man whom D. Christovão had with him for this, escaped with us, by the favour of our Lord, to make it in the time of such need: for on this hill of the Jews there is much saltpetre and sulphur, and all that is necessary. During the whole of January the Preste was here, getting ready and awaiting the Portuguese. The latter were not then in the country of the Barnaguais; for it appeared to them that we were all dead, and that they could not join the Preste; they therefore journeyed to Massowa, to embark for India, should any of our foists come there. When this information regarding them arrived, and the weapons which were on the hill came, the Preste determined to go and seek the Moors; for he learned that the Turks who had come to his assistance had returned, and that he had only the two hundred, who were always with him, and his own followers.

# The Poems and Prose Remains of Arthur Hugh Clough/Volume 2/The Thread of Truth

THE THREAD OF TRUTH.
Truth is a golden thread, seen here and there In small bright specks upon the visible side Of our strange being's party-coloured web. How rich the converse! 'Tis a vein of ore Emerging now and then on Earth's rude breast, But flowing full below. Like islands set At distant intervals on Ocean's face, We see it on our course; but in the depths The mystic colonnade unbroken keeps Its faithful way, invisible but sure. Oh, if it be so, wherefore do we men Pass by so many marks, so little heeding? 1839

THE SHADY LANE.
Whence comest thou? shady lane, and why and how? Thou, where with idle heart, ten years ago, I wandered, and with childhood's paces slow So long unthought of, and remembered now! Again in vision clear thy pathwayed side I tread, and view thy orchard plots again With yellow fruitage hung, and glimmering grain Standing or shocked through the thick hedge espied.
This hot still noon of August brings the sight; This quelling silence as of eve or night, Wherein Earth (feeling as a mother may After her travail's latest bitterest throes) Looks up, so seemeth it, one half repose, One half in effort, straining, suffering still. 1839
# The Poems and Prose Remains of Arthur Hugh Clough/Volume 2/Thoughts of Home

THOUGHTS OF HOME.
I watched them from the window, thy children at their play, And I thought of all my own dear friends, who were far, oh, far away, And childish loves, and childish cares, and a child's own buoyant gladness Came gushing back again to me with a soft and solemn sadness; And feelings frozen up full long, and thoughts of long ago, Seemed to be thawing at my heart with a warm and sudden flow.
I looked upon thy children, and I thought of all and each, Of my brother and my sister, and our rambles on the beach, Of my mother's gentle voice, and my mother's beckoning hand, And all the tales she used to tell of the far, far English land; And the happy, happy evening hours, when I sat on my father's knee,— Oh! many a wave is rolling now betwixt that seat and me!
And many a day has passed away since, I left them o’er the sea, And I have lived a life since then of boyhood’s thoughtless glee; Yet of the blessed times gone by not seldom would I dream, And childhood’s joy, like faint far stars, in memory’s heaven would gleam, And o’er the sea to those I loved my thoughts would often roam, But never knew I until now the blessings of a home!
I used to think when I was there that my own true home was here, But home is not in land or sky, but in those whom each holds dear. The evening’s cooling breeze is fanning my temples now, But then my frame was languid, and heated was my brow, And I longed for England’s cool, and for England’s breezes then, But now I would give full many a breeze to be back in the heat again.
But when cold strange looks without, and proud high thoughts within, Are weaving round my heart the woof of selfishness and sin; When self begins to roll a far, a worse and wider sea Of careless and unloving thoughts between those friends and me, I will think upon these moments, and call to mind the day When I watched them from the window, thy children at their play. 1836
# The Poems and Prose Remains of Arthur Hugh Clough/Volume 2/The Silver Wedding

THE SILVER WEDDING.
The silver Wedding! on some pensive ear From towers remote as sound the silvery bells, To-day from one far unforgotten year A silvery faint memorial music swells.
And silver-pale the dim memorial light Of musing age on youthful joys is shed, The golden joys of fancy’s dawning bright, The golden bliss of, Woo’d, and won, and wed.
Ah, golden then, but silver now! In sooth, The years that pale the cheek, that dim the eyes, And silver o’er the golden hairs of youth, Less prized can make its only priceless prize.
Not so; the voice this silver name that gave To this, the ripe and unenfeebled date, For steps together tottering to the grave, Hath bid the perfect golden title wait.
Rather, if silver this, if that be gold, From good to better changed on age’s track, Must it as baser metal be enrolled, That day of days, a quarter-century back.
Yet ah, its hopes, its joys were golden too, But golden of the fairy gold of dreams To feel is but to dream; until we do, There’s nought that is, and all we see but seems.
What was or seemed it needed cares and tears, And deeds together done, and trials past, And all the subtlest alchemy of years, To change to genuine substance here at last.
Your fairy gold is silver sure to-day; Your ore by crosses many, many a loss, As in refiners’ fires, hath purged away What erst it had of earthy human dross.
Come years as many yet, and as they go, In human life’s great crucible shall they Transmute, so potent are the spells they know, Into pure gold the silver of to-day.
Strange metallurge is human life! ’Tis true; And Use and Wont in many a gorgeous case Full specious fair for casual outward view Electrotype the sordid and the base.
Nor lack who praise, avowed, the spurious ware, Who bid young hearts the one true love forego, Conceit to feed, or fancy light as air, Or greed of pelf and precedence and show.
True, false, as one to casual eyes appear, To read men truly men may hardly learn; Yet doubt it not that wariest glance would here Faith, Hope and Love, the true Tower-stamp discern.
Come years again! as many yet! and purge Less precious earthier elements away, And gently changed at life’s extremest verge, Bring bright in gold your perfect fiftieth day!
That sight may children see and parents show! If not—yet earthly chains of metal true, By love and duty wrought and fixed below, Elsewhere will shine, transformed, celestial-new;
Will shine of gold, whose essence, heavenly bright, No doubt-damps tarnish, worldly passions fray; Gold into gold there mirrored, light in light, Shall gleam in glories of a deathless day. 1845
# The Poems and Prose Remains of Arthur Hugh Clough/Volume 2/Wen Gott betrügt, ist wohl betrogen

'WEN GOTT BETRÜGT, IST WOHL BETROGEN.'
Is it true, ye gods, who treat us As the gambling fool is treated; O ye, who ever cheat us, And let us feel we're cheated! Is it true that poetical power, The gift of heaven, the dower Of Apollo and the Nine, The inborn sense, 'the vision and the faculty divine,' All we glorify and bless In our rapturous exaltation, All invention, and creation, Exuberance of fancy, and sublime imagination, All a poet's fame is built on, The fame of Shakespeare, Milton, Of Wordsworth, Byron, Shelley, Is in reason's grave precision, Nothing more, nothing less, Than a peculiar conformation, Constitution, and condition Of the brain and of the belly? Is it true, ye gods who cheat us? And that 's the way ye treat us?
Oh say it, all who think it, Look straight, and never blink it! If it is so, let it be so, And we will all agree so; But the plot has counterplot, It may be, and yet be not.

Wirkung in der Ferne
When the dews are earliest falling, When the evening glen is grey, Ere thou lookest, ere thou speakest, My beloved, I depart, and I return to thee;— Return, return, return.
Dost thou watch me while I traverse Haunts of men, beneath the sun,— Dost thou list while I bespeak them With a voice whose cheer is thine? O my brothers! men, my brothers, You are mine, and I am yours; I am yours to cheer and succour, I am yours for hope and aid Lo, my hand to raise and stay you, Lo, my arm to guard and keep, My voice to rouse and warn you, And my heart to warm and calm: My heart to lend the life it owes
To her that is not here, In the power of her that dwelleth Where you know not—no, nor guess not— Whom you see not; unto whom,— Ere the evening star hath sunken, Ere the glow-worm lights its lamp, Ere the wearied workman slumbers,— I return, return, return.

"Day unto day uttereth speech---"
---"Night unto night showeth Knowledge."
From the beginning—watchers of the skies.
Riddles—writ in vapor.
Weather-wise folk have read them for thousands of years-
What do they mean to you?
Majestic cumulus...
...the every-day cloud of the prairie country...
...often looming into a thunderhead.
Feathery cirrus...
Lowering strato-cumulus...
Gray stratus...
...which is just "fog" when you are above it.
The new-born cloud—10,000 feet above tide.
The meaning of any cloud form varies with conditions — depending largely on whether the low barometer is going or coming. For example—
"When the 'carry'
    goes west,
Gude weather
    is past—"
"When the 'carry'
    goes east,
Gude weather
    is neist."
Thus time-honored proverbs about clouds and sky often embody sound weather lore.
"In the morning,
    mountains---
"In the evening,
    fountains."
"Red sky in the morning,
    Sailors take warning—"
"—red sky at night
    Is the sailors' delight."
"Mackerel scales
    and mares' tails
    make lofty ships
    carry low sails."
Even ships that ride the storm sometimes come to grief— The ill-fated Shenandoah among the clouds.
"Wool-pack" clouds, (cumulus).
"Sheep clouds" (alto-cumulus).
The "anvil" a shape often assumed by a thunder head.
These are the script of the elements, in which the riddles of the firmament are written.
These— and their countless kindred forms.
I am the daughter
       of earth and water,
    And the nursling of the sky;
I pass through the pores
       of the ocean and shores;
    I change, but I cannot die...
For after the rain
       when, with never a stain,
    The pavilion of heaven is bare,
And the winds and sunbeams,
       with their convex gleams,
    Build up the blue dome of air,
I silently laugh
       at my own cenotaph,
    And out of the caverns of rain,
Like a child from the womb,
       like a ghost from the tomb,
    I arise and upbuild it again.
–"The Cloud," Shelley.
