# Steamship Company v. Portwardens

United States Supreme Court
73 U.S. 31
Steamship Company v. Portwardens
ERROR to the Supreme Court of Louisiana.
The Constitution of the United States ordains that Congress shall have the power to 'regulate commerce with foreign nations and among the several States;' that 'no State shall, without the consent of the Congress, lay any imposts or duties on imports or exports, except what may be absolutely necessary for executing its inspection laws;' and that 'no State shall, without the consent of Congress, lay any duty on tonnage.'
With these prohibitions of the Constitution upon State legislation in force as the supreme law of the land, a statute of the State of Louisiana, passed on the 15th of March, 1855, enacted that the master and wardens of the port of New Orleans should be entitled to demand and receive, in addition to other fees, the sum of five dollars, whether called on to perform any service or not, for every vessel arriving in that port.
Under this act the sum of five dollars was demanded of the steamship Charles Morgan, belonging to the Southern Steamship Company of New Orleans, and payment being refused, suit was brought against the owner and judgment recovered in a justice's court, which judgment was subsequently affirmed by the Supreme Court of the State. The object of this suit in error was to reverse that judgment.
The question presented by the record, therefore, was this: Is the act of the legislature of Louisiana repugnant to the Constitution of the United States?Mr. Durant, for the Port-Master and Wardens, defendants in error:
The statute in question is not within any of the prohibitions of the Constitution.
1. It is not an attempt to 'regulate commerce.' It is but a regulation of the police of the port of New Orleans, and belongs to that class of laws which it will be admitted that the States have a right to enact; such as inspection, quarantine and health laws, and those regulating their pilots, or internal commerce, &c.
2. Nor can the fee of five dollars allowed to the portwardens be viewed as an 'impost or duty on imports or exports.' The fee is to be paid to the wardens for the same reason that half pilotage is to be paid to pilots when they offer their services, although the services are not accepted. It has always been held that this part of the pilotage law is constitutional. The office and functions of portwardens are as indispensable for the purposes of navigation and commerce, as the office and functions of pilots.
3. Nor yet is it a 'duty upon tonnage,' which by necessary intendment is a duty proportioned to the tonnage of the vessel; that is to say, a certain rate or so much per ton.
Mr. S. N. Salomon, contra.
The CHIEF JUSTICE delivered the opinion of the court.

# Steamer Virginia v. West/Opinion of the Court

* Court Documents
* Case Syllabus
* Opinion of the Court
United States Supreme Court
60 U.S. 182
Steamer Virginia v. West
This is an appeal from the Circuit Court for the district of Maryland.
The decree from which the appeal has been taken was passed by the Circuit Court on the 17th day of November, 1855 and the appeal was prayed on the same day in open court. But it was not prosecuted to the next succeeding term of this court, and no transcript of the record was filed here during that term. But a transcript has been filed at the present term of this court, and the case docketed. And a motion is made to dismiss it, upon the ground that the appeal is not legally before this court, according to the act of Congress regulating appeals.
The construction of this act of Congress, and the practice of this court under it, has been settled by the cases of Villalobos v. The United States, (6 Howard, 81,) and The United States v. Curry, (6 Howard, 106.) The transcript must be filed in this court and the case docketed at the term next succeeding the appeal, in order to give this court jurisdiction. This case must therefore be dismissed.
But the dismissal does not bar the appellant from taking and prosecuting another appeal at any time within five years from the date of the decree, provided the transcript is filed here and the case docketed at the term next succeeding the date of such second appeal.

Some people admire the work of a Fool,
For it's sure to keep your judgment cool;
It does not reproach you with want of wit;
It is not like a lawyer serving a writ.

# Sorrow and Stillness

From the Harvard Monthly
With grief I walked in woodland solitude, And called aloud in prayer, and bade them hear,— The dumb, grey forest trees that stood a-near And made as if they knew not that I sued.
The winter wind played no soft interlude,— No little lisping song to soothe and cheer, As mother's whispering calms the children's fear,— But stormed and raged, as if in angry mood.
Then in a moment all the tumult ceased. With tender grey the sky was overcast, And bowed the head of every towering tree. Straightway from half my care I was released, And life grew sweet again; I knew at last That silence was the truest sympathy.

# Sorrows of Werther

This poem is a satire on Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's The Sorrows of Young Werther.
Werther had a love for Charlotte  Such as words could never utter; Would you know how first he met her?  She was cutting bread and butter.
Charlotte was a married lady,  And a moral man was Werther, And, for all the wealth of Indies,  Would do nothing for to hurt her.
So he sighed and pined and ogled,  And his passion boiled and bubbled, Till he blew his silly brains out,  And no more was by it troubled.
Charlotte, having seen his body  Borne before her on a shutter, Like a well-conducted person,  Went on cutting bread and butter.

# Soul of my Soul

from Poems, in Harper's Cyclopædia 1909
Soul of my soul, impart  Thy energy divine!  Inform and fill this languid heart,  And make thy purpose mine.  Thy voice is still and small,  The world's is loud and rude:  Oh, let me hear thee over all,  And be, through love, renewed!
 Give me the mind to seek  Thy perfect will to know;  And lead me, tractable and meek,  The way I ought to go.  Make quick my spirit's ear  Thy faintest word to heed:  Soul of my soul! be ever near  To guide me in my need.

Weary the cry of the wind is, weary the sea, Weary the heart and the mind and the body of me. Would I were out of it, done with it, would I could be A white gull crying along the desolate sands!
Outcast, derelict soul in a body accurst, Standing drenched with the spindrift standing athirst, For the cool green waves of death to arise and burst In a tide of quiet for me on the desolate sands.
Would that the waves and the long white hair of the spray Would gather in splendid terror and blot me away To the sunless place of the wrecks where the waters sway Gently, dreamily quietly over desolate sands!

# Sibylline Leaves (Coleridge)/To an Unfortunate Woman, Whom the Author had known in the days of her Innocence

TO AN UNFORTUNATE WOMAN,
Whom the Author had known in the days of her Innocence.
Myrtle-leaf that, ill besped, Finest in the gladsome ray, Soil'd beneath the common tread, Far from thy protecting spray!
When the Partridge o'er the sheaf Whirr'd along the yellow vale, Sad I saw thee, heedless leaf! Love the dalliance of the gale.
Lightly didst thou, foolish thing! Heave and flutter to his sighs, While the flatterer, on his wing, Wooed and whisper'd thee to rise.
Gaily from thy mother-stalk Wert thou danced and wafted high— Soon on this unshelter'd walk Flung to fade, to rot and die.
# Sibylline Leaves (Coleridge)/To a Young Man of Fortune

The 'Young Man' of the title is Charles Lloyd
ADDRESSED
TO A YOUNG MAN OF FORTUNE
Who abandon'd himself to an indolent and causeless Melancholy.
Hence that fantastic wantonness of woe, O Youth to partial Fortune vainly dear! To plunder'd Want's half-shelter'd hovel go, Go, and some hunger-bitten Infant hear Moan haply in a dying Mother's ear: Or when the cold and dismal fog-damps brood O'er the rank church-yard with sear elm-leaves strew'd, Pace round some widow's grave, whose dearer part Was slaughter'd, where o'er his uncoffin'd limbs The flocking flesh-birds scream'd! Then, while thy heart Groans, and thine eye a fiercer sorrow dims, Know (and the truth shall kindle thy young mind) What nature makes thee mourn, she bids thee heal! O abject! if, to sickly dreams resign'd, All effortless thou leave life's common-weal A prey to Tyrants, Murderers of Mankind.

# Sic a Parcel of Rogues in a Nation

Fareweel to a' our Scottish fame,
Fareweel our ancient glory;
Fareweel to e'en our Scottish name
Sae fam'd in sang and story.
Now Sark rins tae th' Solway sands,
An' Tweed runs t' th' ocean..
Tae mark whaur England's Province stands:
Sic a parcel of rogues in a nation!
What force or guile could not subdue
Thro' many warlike ages,
Is wrought now by a coward few
For hireling traitor's wages.
The English steel we could disdain,
Secure in valour's station.
But English gold has been our bane:
Sic a parcel of rogues in a nation!
Oh, would or had I seen the day
That treason thus could sell us!
My auld grey head had lien in clay,
Wi' Bruce and loyal Wallace!
But, pith and power, till my last hour,
I'll make this declaration:
We were bought and sold for English gold!
Sic a parcel of rogues in a nation!

# Sic transit gloria mundi

Published in Letters of Emily Dickinson (1894)
Sic transit gloria mundi, How doth the busy bee — Dum vivimus vivamus, I stay mine enemy.
Oh, veni, vidi, vici, Oh, caput, cap-a-pie, And oh, memento mori When I am far from thee.
Hurrah for Peter Parley, Hurrah for Daniel Boone, Three cheers, sir, for the gentlemen Who first observed the moon.
Peter put up the sunshine, Patti arrange the stars, Tell Luna tea is waiting, And call your brother Mars.
Put down the apple, Adam, And come away with me ; So shall thou have a pippin From off my father's tree.
I climb the hill of science I 'view the landscape o'er,' Such transcendental prospect I ne'er beheld before.
Unto the Legislature My country bids me go. I 'll take my india-rubbers, In case the wind should blow.
During my education, It was announced to me That gravitation, stumbling, Fell from an apple-tree.
The earth upon its axis Was once supposed to turn, By way of a gymnastic In honor to the sun.
It was the brave Columbus, A-sailing on the tide, Who notified the nations Of where I would reside.
Mortality is fatal, Gentility is fine, Rascality heroic, Insolvency sublime.
Our fathers being weary Lay down on Bunker Hill, And though full many a morning, Yet they are sleeping still.
The trumpet, sir, shall wake them, In dream I see them rise, Each with a solemn musket A-marching to the skies.
A coward will remain, sir, Until the fight is done, But an immortal hero Will take his hat and run.
Good-by, sir, I am going — My country calleth me. Allow me, sir, at parting To wipe my weeping e'e.
In token of our friendship Accept this Bonnie Doon, And when the hand that plucked it Has passed beyond the moon,
The memory of my ashes Will consolation be. Then farewell, Tuscarora, And farewell, sir, to thee.

# Sibylline Leaves (Coleridge)/To an Unfortunate Woman at the Theatre

First published in The Morning Post, 7th December, 1797
TO
AN UNFORTUNATE WOMAN
At the Theatre.
Maiden, that with sullen brow Sitt'st behind those virgins gay, Like a seorch'd and mildew'd bough, Leafless 'mid the blooms of May!
Him who lured thee and forsook, Oft I watch'd with angry gaze, Fearful saw his pleading look, Anxious heard his fervid phrase.
Soft the glances of the youth, Soft his speech, and soft his sigh; But no sound like simple truth, But no true love in his eye.
Loathing thy polluted lot, Hie thee, Maiden, hie thee hence! Seek thy weeping Mother's cot, With a wiser innocence.
Thou hast known deceit and folly, Thou hast felt that vice is woe: With a musing melancholy Inly arm'd, go, Maiden! go.
Mother sage of Self-dominion, Firm thy steps, O Melancholy! The strongest plume in wisdom's pinion Is the memory of past folly.
Mute the sky-lark and forlorn, While she moults the firstling plumes, That had skimm'd the tender corn, Or the bean-field's odorous blooms.
Soon with renovated wing Shall she dare a loftier flight, Upward to the day-star spring And embathe in heavenly light.

Yea, he deserves to find himself deceived, Who seeks a Heart in the unthinking Man. Like shadows on a stream, the forms of life Impress their characters on the smooth forehead: Nought sinks into the Bosom's silent depth. Quick sensibility of Pain and Pleasure Moves the light fluids lightly; but no Soul Warmeth the inner frame.

United States Supreme Court
355 U.S. 62
Stinson v. Atlantic Coast Line Railroad Company
Argued: Nov. 18, 1957. --- Decided: Jan 6, 1958
The petition for writ of certiorari is granted. The Supreme Court of Alabama held that 'there was sufficient evidence for the jury to find that there was negligence on the part of the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad Company.' 264 Ala. 522, 527, 88 So.2d 189, 193. We agree. We now hold that the evidence also presented a jury question whether the employee's death resulted in whole or in part from such negligence. 35 Stat. 65, 45 U.S.C. § 51, 45 U.S.C.A. § 51; Rogers v. Missouri Pacific R. Co., 352 U.S. 500, 77 S.Ct. 443, 1 L.Ed.2d 493; Schulz v. Pennsylvania R. Co., 350 U.S. 523, 76 S.Ct. 608, 100 L.Ed. 668. The judgment of the Supreme Court of Alabama is therefore reversed and the cause is remanded for consideration of any grounds not disposed of on the first appeal; and, if none has merit, with instructions to reinstate the judgment entered on the jury verdict of June 12, 1953, awarding the petitioner damages of $46,600. Urie v. Thompson, 337 U.S. 163, 69 S.Ct. 1018, 93 L.Ed. 1282. For the reasons set forth in his opinion in Rogers v. Missouri Pacific R. Co., 352 U.S. 500, 524, 77 S.Ct. 443, 459, 1 L.Ed.2d 493, 520, Mr. Justice Frankfurter is of the view that the writ of certiorari is improvidently granted. Mr. Justice Burton dissents. Mr. Justice Harlan, while believing that certiorari should be denied, considers that Rogers v. Missouri Pacific R. Co., supra, requires him to concur in the result.
