# Domestic Encyclopædia (1802)/Fur

Edition of 1802.
​FUR, in commerce, signifies the skins of wild quadrupeds, which are dressed with alum, without depriving them of the hair; and which form a part of the robes of princes, magistrates, and others. The skins chiefly used are, those of the sable, ermine, bear, beaver, hare, &c.
Furs did not become an article of luxury in this country for many ages, and were imported principally from Italy, till, since the conquest of Canada and the more northern parts of America, we have obtained them from the Indians.
The furs at present used, are those brought from the remotest parts of North America by the Hudson's Bay Company, and from Russia. They are very valuable, especially the skins of ermines, black foxes, and sables, for which various prices have been paid, from 20 to 100 guineas.—Imported furs are subject to heavy duties, which our limits will not permit us to enumerate.
With respect to its influence on health, we shall briefly remark, that fur deserves no commendation as an article of ordinary dress. Its alkaline and oily particles stimulate the skin, when in contact with it: thus partially increase perspiration, and lay the foundation of colds and catarrhs. A fur dress readily attracts infection, and acquires an intolerable smell. Hence whole nations that wear such garments, are exposed to obstinate cutaneous diseases, and, perhaps, to the propagation of the plague itself; which is said to be spread among the Turks, chiefly by their absurd cumbersome dresses lined with animal hair.
# Domestic Encyclopædia (1802)/Gamboge

Edition of 1802.
​GAMBOGE, a concrete vegetable juice, of a gummy-resinous nature. It issues from the Cambogia gutta, a native of Cambia, in the East Indies; whence it is imported in large cakes or rolls. The best sort is of a deep yellow colour; is divested of all smell; and has very little taste.
As a pigment, gamboge makes a beautiful yellow, which is much used by painters. When taken as a medicine, it operates violently both upwards and downwards. It has been used in dropsies with cream of tartar, or jalap, or with both, to accelerate their operation: it is also recommended to be taken for the expulsion of the tape-worm, in doses of fifteen grains, early in the morning; and, if the worm be not expelled in two or three hours, this powerful dose is said to have been repeated with safety and with success, even to the third time, and in persons of delicate habits.—Great precaution, however, is requisite in the use of this precarious and active medicine; but, if accidentally too large a dose of it should have been swallowed, the most effectual antidote will be copious draughts of a solution of pearl-ashes in water.
# Domestic Encyclopædia (1802)/Garter

Edition of 1802.
​GARTER, a ligature employed for fastening or tying up stockings.
Though the use of garters be sanctioned by custom and fashion, it is by no means to be recommended, either above or below the knee; for the parts compressed acquire an unnatural hardness; and every exertion, either in walking or riding, is attended with increased fatigue. Dropsies of the legs and thighs also frequently arise from this unsuspected cause;—hence, likewise, many persons stumble, fall, and dislocate, or otherwise materially injure the knee-pan. Such are the inconveniencies attendant on the use of garters: they might, however, be easily prevented, by simply fastening the stockings to the waste-band, by means of tape.—Trifling as this alteration may probably appear, it is of real importance to all, especially to those who are troubled with swelled or ulcerated legs, as well as to invalids and valetudinarians in general: for we are fully persuaded, that by the adoption of the expedient before suggested, many unfortunate accidents may be easily obviated.
# Domestic Encyclopædia (1802)/Funeral Rites

Edition of 1802.
​FUNERAL RITES, are those ​ceremonies which are religiously observed at the interment or burial of the dead. They varied among the ancients, according to the different genius and religion of each country.
It is not, however, our design to specify these ceremonies, but merely to point out an abuse that loudly claims the attention of all. In many populous parishes, within the bills of mortality, a dangerous practice prevails, of excavating pits (graves they cannot be called) for the reception of the poor, who, being packed in four deal-boards loosely nailed together, are there deposited, till the hole is sufficiently filled. During the interval, planks are laid over the common grave; and, when the uppermost coffin arrives, a minister is employed to mutter, at once, the usual prayers over the hapless victims of poverty, who are then covered with the maternal earth. Such mal-practice demands an immediate remedy; as the mephitic vapours arising through the planks, especially during summer, have the most noxious properties; and perhaps many have met with a premature grave, from inhaling those putrid exhalations.—Facts like these, we conceive it our duty to state, on account of their immediate influence on the health of every inhabitant.
# Domestic Encyclopædia (1802)/Game, in general

Edition of 1802.
​GAME, in general, denotes any sport or diversion that is performed with regularity, and subject to certain rules.
Games are usually divided into those of exercise, such as leaping, playing it tennis, &c.; and into those of hazard, such as back-gammon, &c. which latter ought, in justice to the persons addicted to them, to be completely abolished.
Having already treated of the more active games, under the article Exercise, we shall at present only point out such as are peculiarly detrimental to the health of children.
1. Bending of the head backwards should be carefully avoided, to prevent young people from tumbling over: besides, the muscles of the abdomen become thus unnaturally extended, and frequently dispose such hazardous adventurers to ruptures.
2. Jumping wantonly from, or to, a considerable height, ought to be either prohibited, or undertaken with the greatest caution, in order to avoid violent concussion, and sudden tension of the muscles. The juvenile sportsmen should, therefore, be taught to make such exertions with their knees somewhat inflected, as to reach the ground first on the points of the toes, and then gradually to drop on the soles of the feet.
3. Children are uncommonly fond of displaying their dexterity in lifting one another, and even weights far superior to their strength; a practice that ought to be seriously discouraged: for, while they are in such postures, every nerve is necessarily strained; respiration is impeded; and dangerous accidents may ensue.
4. All partial exercise tends to give the body a crooked form, and should therefore be allowed only at certain times, and with moderation; as, under these restrictions, it is even salutary; but, if continued to excess, it is attended with ​the most injurious effects. Hence it would be a judicious measure to teach youth, at an early period, the use of both arms alike, and to make them acquainted with such games as contribute to that purpose.
5. Sedentary diversions, and long standing, are extremely prejudicial to the straight growth of children; for, as the spinal column and legs are too feeble to support the additional weight of the reclining part of the frame, the vertebræ yield to one side, and often occasion incurable distortions.
If these precautions were more strictly observed, and both male and female children instructed to beware of dangerous postures and leaps, as well as of raising and carrying heavy burthens, how many fatal accidents might be avoided! Yet, we are by no means advocates for rendering them unnecessarily timid. There is a medium, which every prudent guardian will easily discover; and to this we would call the attention of parents—happy, if we could thus add our mite ards introducing more rational, and less hazardous practices.

MR. JUSTICE CLIFFORD dissenting.
I dissent from the opinion and judgment of the Circuit Court in this case, because the instruction given by the Circuit Court to the jury was erroneous. Plaintiffs were entitled at least to the actual damages sustained by them in view of the whole evidence. Unless the plaintiffs in such a case may recover something more than nominal damages, the debt becomes valueless, as the same conduct by the supervisors may be repeated indefinitely, and the rule necessarily leads to practical repudiation.

Revelation An uncovering, a bringing to light of that which had been previously wholly hidden or only obscurely seen. God has been pleased in various ways and at different times (Heb. 1:1) to make a supernatural revelation of himself and his purposes and plans, which, under the guidance of his Spirit, has been committed to writing. (See WORD OF [532]GOD.) The Scriptures are not merely the "record" of revelation; they are the revelation itself in a written form, in order to the accurate presevation and propagation of the truth.
Revelation and inspiration differ. Revelation is the supernatural communication of truth to the mind; inspiration (q.v.) secures to the teacher or writer infallibility in communicating that truth to others. It renders its subject the spokesman or prophet of God in such a sense that everything he asserts to be true, whether fact or doctrine or moral principle, is true, infallibly true.

Rezon: prince, son of Eliadah. Abandoning the service of Hadadezer, the king of Zobah, on the occasion of his being defeated by David, he became the "captain over a band" of marauders, and took Damascus, and became king of Syria (1 Kings 11:23-25; 2 Samuel 8:3-8). For centuries after this the Syrians were the foes of Israel. He "became an adversary to Israel all the days of Solomon."

Revelation, Book of = The Apocalypse, the closing book and the only prophetical book of the New Testament canon. The author of this book was undoubtedly John the apostle. His name occurs four times in the book itself (1:1, 4, 9; 22:8), and there is every reason to conclude that the "John" here mentioned was the apostle. In a manuscript of about the twelfth century he is called "John the divine," but no reason can be assigned for this appellation.
The date of the writing of this book has generally been fixed at A.D. 96, in the reign of Domitian. There are some, however, who contend for an earlier date, A.D. 68 or 69, in the reign of Nero. Those who are in favour of the later date appeal to the testimony of the Christian father Irenaeus, who received information relative to this book from those who had seen John face to face. He says that the Apocalypse "was seen no long time ago."
As to the relation between this book and the Gospel of John, it has been well observed that "the leading ideas of both are the same. The one gives us in a magnificent vision, the other in a great historic drama, the supreme conflict between good and evil and its issue. In both Jesus Christ is the central figure, whose victory through defeat is the issue of the conflict. In both the Jewish dispensation is the preparation for the gospel, and the warfare and triumph of the Christ is described in language saturated with the Old Testament. The difference of date will go a long way toward explaining the difference of style." Plummer's Gospel of St. John, Introd.

Revelation of Christ The second advent of Christ. Three different Greek words are used by the apostles to express this, (1) apokalupsis (1 Cor. 1;7; 2 Thess. 1:7; 1 Pet. 1:7, 13); (2) parousia (Matt. 24:3, 27; 1 Thess. 2:19; James 5:7, 8); (3) epiphaneia (1 Tim. 6:14; 2 Tim. 1:10; 4:1-8; Titus 2:13). There existed among Christians a wide expectation, founded on Matt. 24:29, 30, 34, of the speedy return of Christ. (See [533]MILLENNIUM.)
