# The Letters of Queen Victoria/Volume 2/Chapter 13/To King of Belgians 27 August 1844

Queen Victoria to the King of the Belgians.
Windsor Castle, 27th August 1844.
My dearest Uncle,—Many thanks for your kind long letter, which I received yesterday, dated 23rd. I can report very well of ourselves. We are all well. The dear day of yesterday we spent very quietly and happily and full of gratitude to Providence for so many blessings. I can only pray for the continuance of our present happiness.
The impending political cloud, I hope and trust, looks less black and lowering. But I think it very unwise in Guizot not to have at once disavowed D’Aubigny for what you yourself call an “outrage,” instead of letting it drag on for four weeks and letting our people get excited. The Tangiers Affair is unfortunate, and I hope that in future poor Joinville will not be exposed to such disagreeable affairs. What can be done will be, to get him justified in the eyes of the public here, but I fear that at first they will not be very charitable. Those letters in the Times are outrageous, and all that abuse very bad taste. There is to be an investigation about the three ​officers, whose conduct is unworthy of Englishmen. Now, dearest Uncle, believe me always, your most affectionate Niece, Victoria R.

Wikipedia article Royal Exchange, London mentions this long-awaited opening of the currently standing building.
Queen Victoria to the King of the Belgians.
Windsor Castle, 29th October 1844.
My dearest Uncle,—I had the happiness of receiving your kind letter of the 26th while I was dressing to go to the City for the opening of the Royal Exchange. Nothing ever went off better, and the procession there, as well as all the proceedings at the Royal Exchange, were splendid and royal in the extreme. It was a fine and gratifying sight to see the myriads of people assembled—more than at the Coronation even, and all in such good humour, and so loyal; the articles in the papers, too, are most kind and gratifying; they say no Sovereign was more loved than I am (I am bold enough to say), and that, from our happy domestic home—which gives such a good example. The Times you have, and I venture to add a Chronicle, as I think it very pretty; you should read the accounts. I seldom remember being so gratified and pleased with any public show, and my beloved Albert was so enthusiastically received by the people. He is so beloved by all the really influential people, and by all right-thinking ones. We came back here yesterday evening. The accounts from Paris are excellent too. How long are the good Joinvilles to remain in the south, and where? By-the-by, dearest Uncle, have you read the continuation of Consuelo, called the “Comtesse de Rudolstadt”? It is dreadfully interesting.
The Knights of the Garter did not wear the whole costume, but only the mantle. Being on this topic, shall tell you that I intend giving the Garter to Ernest, but pray do not mention it to E. or any one.
With Albert’s affectionate love. Ever your devoted Niece and Child, Victoria R.

# The Letters of Queen Victoria/Volume 2/Chapter 13/To Earl Aberdeen 29 May 1844

Queen Victoria to the Earl of Aberdeen.
29th May 1844.
If Lord Aberdeen should not have read the Prince de Joinville's pamphlet, the Queen recommends him to do so, as one cannot judge fairly by the extracts in the newspapers. Though it does not lessen the extreme imprudence of the Prince's publishing what must do harm to the various French Governments, it certainly is not intentionally written to offend England, and on the contrary frankly proves us to be immensely superior to the French Navy in every way.
# The Letters of Queen Victoria/Volume 2/Chapter 13/To King of Belgians 15 September 1844

Queen Victoria to the King of the Belgians.
Blair Athol, 15th September 1844.
My dearest Uncle,—I received your kind letter of the 6th the day we arrived here, and thank you very much for it. As I have written an account of our journey to Louise, I will not repeat it here.
The good ending of our difficulties with France is an immense blessing, but it is really and truly necessary that you and those at Paris should know that the danger was imminent, and that poor Aberdeen stood almost alone in trying to keep matters peaceable. We must try and prevent these difficulties for the future. I must, however, clear Jarnac of all blame, for Aberdeen does nothing but praise him. . . .
In Greece affairs look very black, and God knows how it all will end.

# The Life and Works of Christopher Dock/1 Introduction

INTRODUCTION
Twenty-five years ago the name of Christopher Dock, the pious schoolmaster on the Skippack, was unknown to the reading world, and the light of local fame, extending from Germantown to Goshenhoppen, which in the eighteenth century gave a genial glow to his life, had faded to an almost imperceptible ember. To-day it is no exaggeration to say that any treatise upon pedagogy which should omit recognition of his important labors would be regarded as a failure, and his reputation as a leader in educational development in America is universally recognized.
Many learned authors have vied with each other in doing homage to the memory of one so worthy. To have written the earliest American book upon the subject of school teaching is a fact sufficient in itself sooner or later to attract the attention of men of letters, but that fact is much emphasized when the study of his essay discloses that he was far in advance of his time and that in his methods of teaching and of enforcing discipline he forecast what more recent experience has proven to be correct.
Moreover, he was virtuous in life, sweet in disposition and lovable in character, so that when the simple people who surrounded him, grown to maturity, sought to impress upon their children an example of modest merit, they ever recurred to the conduct of the pious Schoolmaster.
​Recently the Mennonites of Pennsylvania have been introduced into modern literature in a romance, the motive of which is an effort to show their disregard for learning. It is rather remarkable that the dawn of our science of pedagogy and the most extensive literary production of the American colonies were both due to the efforts of these interesting people. Dr. Martin G. Brumbaugh, the able Superintendent of the public schools of Philadelphia, has assumed the congenial task of gathering into this volume all of the works of Dock, in order that they may have a wider circulation among the reading public. It is fortunate for the future fame of the venerable Schoolmaster that his accomplishment has been appreciated by one so entirely capable of doing him justice and whose industry has left no source of information uninvestigated.

# The Natural History of Chocolate/Part II/Properties

PART II.
Of the Properties of Chocolate.
We have hitherto treated of Chocolate, as it were, superficially, and as it presents itself to our Senses. We come next to examine its intrinsick Qualities, and to search into its Nature: As far as we can, we will discover what Reason, join'd to long Experience, has taught us concerning the salutary Properties of this Fruit.
# The Natural History of Chocolate/Part III/Chapter I

CHAP. I
Of Chocolate in Confections.
They chuse Cocao-Nuts that are half ripe, and take out the Kernels one by one, for fear of spoiling them; they then lay them to soak for some Days in Spring Water, which they take care to change Morning and Evening: afterwards, having taken them out and wiped them, they lard them with little Bits of Citron-Bark and Cinnamon, almost as they make the Nuts of Roüen.
In the mean time, they prepare a Syrup of the finest Sugar, but very clear; that is to say, wherein there is but little Sugar: and after it has been clarified and purified, they take it boiling-hot off the Fire, and put in the Cocao-Kernels, and let them lie 24 Hours. They repeat this Operation six or seven times, encreasing every time the Quantity of Sugar, without putting it on the Fire, or doing any thing else to it: last of all, they boil another Syrup to the Consistence of Sugar, and pour it on the Kernels well wiped and put in a clean earthen Pot; and when the Syrup is almost cold, they mix with it some Drops of the Essence of Amber.
When they would have these in a dry Form, they take them out of the Syrup; and after it is well drained from them, they put them into a Bason full of a very strong clarify'd Syrup, then they immediately put it in a Stove, or Hot-House, where they candy it.
This Confection, which nearly resembles the Nuts of Roüen, is excellent to strengthen the Stomach without heating it too much; for this reason, they may safely be given to those who are ill of a Fever.
# The Natural History of Chocolate/Part III/Chapter II

CHAP. II.
Of Chocolate, properly so called.
In treating of this Liquor, we have two things to examine: The First is, the Original of Chocolate, and the different Manner of preparing it: The Second, the Medicinal Uses that it is proper for; which shall be the Subject of the two following Sections.
# The New International Encyclopædia/Müller, Peter Erasmus

Edition of 1905. See also Peter Erasmus Müller on Wikipedia; and the disclaimer.
MÜLLER, Peter Erasmus (1776-1834). A Danish theologian and antiquary. He was born at Copenhagen, and studied at the university there, passing his theological examination in 1791. After spending some time in the German universities, he visited France and England. Returning, he wrote numerous works; was appointed professor of theology at the University of Copenhagen in 1801, and in 1830 became Bishop of Zealand, the highest ecclesiastical dignity in Denmark. He was an eminent theologian, and his theological works, including that on the Christian moral system (1808) and other volumes, are very highly valued. But his literary reputation rests upon his essays on Danish and Norse antiquities, of which the most valuable are: Om det islandske Sprogs Vigtighed (1813); Kritisk Undersögelse af Danmarks og Norges Sagnhistorie (1823-30); and, above all, his Sagabibliothek, or Library of the Sagas (1810-18).
# The New International Encyclopædia/Müller, Morten

Edition of 1905. See also Morten Müller on Wikipedia; and the disclaimer.
MÜLLER, Morten (1828—). A Norwegian landscape painter, born at Holmestrand on the Christiania Fjord. After studying in Düsseldorf (1847-50), first under Tidemand and Gude, then at the Academy under Schirmer, he lived in Stockholm, and in 1866 went to Christiania, where he conducted a school for painting, subventioned by the Government. In 1871 he removed again to Düsseldorf, and in 1874 was made a member of the Stockholm Academy and Court painter. The rugged grandeur of the fjords and mountainous woodland fastnesses of his native country are the favorite subjeets of his characteristic landscapes, in which he combines a romantic conception of nature with purely realistic color effects. Representative examples are a “View on Christiania Fjord” (1855), and “Entrance Into Hardanger Fjord” (both in the National Gallery, Christiania); “Pine Forest in Norway” (1860, Hamburg Gallery); “Romsdal
Fjord” (1876); and “Forest Lake by Moonlight” (1892).
# The New International Encyclopædia/Müller, Otho Friederik

Edition of 1905. See also Otto Friedrich Müller on Wikipedia; and the disclaimer.
MÜLLER, Otho Friederik (1730-84). A Danish zoölogist, born in Copenhagen. His contributions to the knowledge of Infusoria are especially valuable. He wrote: Fauna Insectorum Friedrichsdaliana (1764); Flora Friedrichsdaliana (1767); Vermium Terrestrium et Fluviatilium, seu Animalium Infusorium, Helmithecorum et Testaecorum non Marinorum Succincta Historia (1771); Zoölogica Danica (1779-1806).
# The New International Encyclopædia/Müller, Leopold

Edition of 1905. See also Leopold Müller (painter) on Wikipedia; and the disclaimer.
MÜLLER, Leopold (1834-92). An Austrian genre painter, born in Dresden, of Austrian parents. He was a pupil of Karl Blaas and of Christian Ruben at the Academy in Vienna. Obliged to support his family after his father's death, he worked eight years as an illustrator for the Vienna Figaro. Continuing his studies subsequently, he visited repeatedly Italy and Egypt, and made his name favorably known through a series of scenes from popular life in Italy and Hungary. Afterwards he displayed his coloristic talent to greater advantage in Oriental subjects, such as “Arabian Money-Changers,” “Pilgrims to Mecca Resting,” “Bedouins in Camp,” “Camel Mart,” “Young Copt Woman” (New Pinakothek, Munich). Other works include “The Inundation in Vienna. 1862:” “Old Little Matron” and “Last Task of the Day” (both in the Vienna Museum); and “Soldiers in the Thirty Years' War” (Prague Gallery).
# The New International Encyclopædia/Müller, Lucian

Edition of 1905. See also Lucian Müller on Wikipedia; and the disclaimer.
MÜLLER, Lucian (1836-98). A German Latinist. He was born at Merseburg, and studied at the universities of Berlin and Halle. In 1870 he was made professor of the Latin language and literature at the Philologico-Historical Institute at Saint Petersburg. His works, which display great erudition and critical acumen, are marred by his bitter attacks on eminent scholars whose opinions differ from his own. They include his famous De Re Metrica Poetarum Latinorum præter Plautum et Terentium (2d ed. 1894); editions for the Bibliotheca Teubneriana of Horace (2d ed. 1879); of Catullus (1870): and other Latin poets; editions of Lucilius (1872); Phædrus (1877); Ennius (1884); Nævius (1885); Horace's Odes and Epodes, with German commentaries (1882); and Horace's Satires and Epistles (1841-43). His treatise entitled Ein Horazjubiläum (1892) contains a short autobiography.
# The New International Encyclopædia/Müller, Otto

Edition of 1905. See also the disclaimer.
MÜLLER, Otto (1816-94). A German novelist. He was born at Schotten, Hesse; was for some time connected with the Court library at Darmstadt, and edited newspapers at Frankfurt and Mannheim. In 1854 he established the Frankfurter Museum. He was the author of Charlotte Ackermann (1854); Der Stadtschultheiss von Frankfurt (3d ed. 1878), treating of Goethe's grandparents; Aus Petrarcas alten Tagen (1881); Der Majoratsherr (1873); and Schatten auf Höhen (1881). Consult the biography, by Schulte vom Brühl (Stuttgart, 1895).
# The New International Encyclopædia/Müller, Victor

Edition of 1905. See also Victor Müller on Wikipedia; and the disclaimer.
MÜLLER, Victor (1829-71). A German historical painter, born in Frankfort. First instructed there at the Städel Institute by Steinle, he studied afterwards at the Antwerp Academy and under Couture in Paris. Soon, however, he became a follower of Courbet, whose technique, the reverse of Couture's, he adopted, and subsequently helped to promote in Germany. In 1858 he returned to Frankfort, where he soon attracted attention with a series of pictures, thoroughly realistic in conception and of great coloristic charm, but scarcely understood by a public accustomed to the sentimental trend of the Düsseldorf school of that period. He therefore, in 1866, removed to Munich, where such revolutionary departures from traditional treatment as the “Sleeping Wood-Nymph” (1863), or “Hero and Leander,” were more likely to be appeciated. Out of a cycle from Shakespeare, which he painted there, “Hamlet in the Graveyard” (1869) is surpassed only by the “Balcony Scene in Romeo and Juliet” (New Pinakothek, Munich). To his influence as a colorist was due not only the introduction of the tone-element into the paintings of the Munich school, but also the truer conception of historical characters and a more wholesome observation of nature among the younger generation of artists.
# The New International Encyclopædia/Müller, Wenzel

Edition of 1905. See also Wenzel Müller on Wikipedia; and the disclaimer.
MÜLLER, Wenzel (1767-1835). An Austrian composer, born at Tyrnau, Moravia. He was a pupil of Dittersdorf, and from 1813 was kapellmeister at the Leopoldstadt Theater, Vienna. He wrote more than two hundred operas, besides symphonies, cantatas, and masses. His compositions include: Das verfehlte Rendezvous (1783); Das neue Sonntagskleid (1793); Die Schwestern von Prag (1794); and Asmodi oder das böse Weib und der Satan (1834).

# The New International Encyclopædia/Jacobi, Johann Georg

Edition of 1905. See also Johann Georg Jacobi on Wikipedia; and the disclaimer.
JACOBI, Johann Georg (1740-1814). A German poet, brother of Friedrich Heinrich, born at Düsseldorf, and educated at Göttingen. He was appointed professor of philosophy and oratory at Halle (1766), and soon after made the acquaintance of Gleim, with whom he edited Iris (1774-76), to which Goethe, Heinse, Lenz, and Sophie La Roche were contributors. He was made professor at Freiburg in 1784. Jacobi's poetic style was sentimental and effeminate, save in a few of his last works. His collected works, with a biography by Von Ittner, one of his friends, were published at Zurich (1882); his correspondence with Gleim appeared in 1786; and Martin edited Ungedruckte Briefe von und an Johann Georg Jacobi (Strassburg, 1874).
# The New International Encyclopædia/Jacobi, Hermann Georg

Edition of 1905. See also Hermann Jacobi on Wikipedia; and the disclaimer. "Ç" is used below in Çvetāmbara as a substitute for a "C" with two dots underneath, rather like a diaresis, but in the opposite position.
JACOBI, Hermann Georg (1850—). A German Sanskrit scholar, born at Cologne. He was educated there, and at Bonn and Berlin, where he devoted himself to Sanskrit under Gildemeister and Weber. In 1889 he was made professor at Bonn, after teaching and lecturing at Münster (1876-85) and Kiel (1885-89). Possibly his most important work is in Indian chronology: “The Computation of Hindu Dates in Inscriptions,” published in Epigraphica Indica (1892). His dating of the Rig-Veda, Ueber das Alter des Rigveda (1893), on astronomical grounds, puts the time much earlier than the usual estimate. His other works, on comparative philology, Prakrit grammar, Sanskrit literature, and Jainism, include: Kalpasūtra of Bhadrabāhn (1879); Acārānga Sūtra of the Çvetāmbara Jains (1882); Sthaviravali Charita (1891); and translations of the Acārānga, Kalpa, Uttarādhyayana, and Sutrakritānga Sūtra in the Sacred Books of the East, vols. xxii. and xlv. (1884-95); Ausgewählte Erzählungen in Māhārāshtrī (1886); Das Rāmāyana (1893); and, in syntax, Kompositum und Nebensatz. Studien über die indogermanische Sprachentwicklung (1897).
