# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Salpointe, Jean Baptist

Edition of 1900.
​SALPOINTE, Jean Baptist, R. C. archbishop, b. in St. Maurice, France, 21 Feb., 1825; d. in Tucson, 16 July, 1898. He received his education in a school in Ajain, and subsequently studied the classics in the College of Clermont and philosophy and theology in the Seminary of Clermont Ferrand. He was raised to the priesthood on 20 Dec., 1851, and, after spending about eight years in parochial duties and as professor in the preparatory seminary of Clermont, he came to the United States in 1859, and was parish priest of Mora, N. M., until he was appointed vicar-general of Arizona in 1866. He was nominated vicarapostolic of Arizona three years afterward, and consecrated by the title of bishop of Doryla in partibus on 20 June, 1869. His vicariate included Arizona, with part of Texas and New Mexico. He immediately set about building churches, organizing new congregations, and founding schools and hospitals. The number of priests had increased to eighteen when Dr. Salpointe was transferred to Santa Fé as coadjutor to Archbishop Lamy, and the churches had increased from about half a dozen to twenty-three, besides fifteen chapels. He succeeded Archbishop Lamy as archbishop of Santa Fé in 1885.
# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Russell, Israel Cook

Edition of 1900.
​RUSSELL, Israel Cook, geologist, b. near Garrattsville, N. Y., 10 Dec., 1852. He was graduated at the University of the city of New York in 1872, after which he spent two years in studying science at the School of mines of Columbia college. In 1874 he accompanied one of the parties sent out by the U. S. government to observe the transit of Venus, and was stationed at Queenstown, New Zealand. On his return in 1875 he was appointed assistant in geology at the School of mines, and in 1878 he became assistant geologist on the U. S. geological and geographical survey west of the 100th meridian. In 1880 he was appointed to a similar office on the U. S. geological survey, which he still (1898) holds. Besides large contributions on geological subjects to various scientific periodicals, he has published scientific memoirs, which have been issued by the government in the annual reports of the survey, or as separate monographs. These include “Sketch of the Geological History of Lake Lahontan” (1883); “A Geological Reconnoissance in Southern Oregon” (1884); “Existing Glaciers of the United States” (1885); “Geological History of Lake Lahontan” (1885); “Geological History of Mono Valley” (1888); and “Sub-Aërial Decay of Rocks” (1888).
# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Saint Castin, Jean Vincent de l'Abadie, Baron de

Edition of 1900.
​SAINT CASTIN, Jean Vincent de l'Abadie (san-cas-tang), Baron de, French colonist, b. in Lescar, Bearn, in 1650; d. in Acadia in 1712. He came to Canada in 1665 as an ensign, took part in the expedition of De Coureelles, and, when his regiment was disbanded in 1668, was among the few officers that chose to remain in the colony, and was sent to Acadia to command for the king under Chambly. In 1675 Dutchmen from Santo Domingo made the latter prisoner, but Saint Castin escaped and afterward roamed the woods with the Indians, and gained much influence over them. He also made a fortune of about 400,000 crowns by dealing in beaver-skins with his neighbors of New England. His trading-house was at Pentagoet (now Castine), in the old fort, which he occupied or abandoned by turns, according to the needs of the time. But his trade involved him in difficulties with the royal governors, and in 1688 the king required him to establish a permanent settlement and cease all trade with the English. About this time Saint Castin married the daughter of Madockawando, chief of the Penobscots, and in the same year war was renewed, mainly through Saint Castin's efforts. He attacked the English posts at Port Royal, at the head of 250 Indians, and continued for years to plunder the English settlements. The authorities of Boston set a price upon his head, as they regarded him as their most insidious enemy, and employed deserters to kidnap him; but the plot was discovered, and the deserters were shot at Mount Desert. With his Indians, Saint Castin landed in 1696 at New Harbor, near Fort Pemaquid, and, co-operating with the troops of Iberville, obliged the governor to surrender, and destroyed the fortress. The French dominions were thus extended over a large part of Maine. The remainder of his history is intimately connected with the struggles for the possession of Acadia. He defended Port Royal in 1706, and again in 1707, when he was wounded, he saved the fort. He is said to have gone to France in 1709, but he was in Acadia, again soon afterward, where he fought to the last for the French cause, and was killed in an engagement in 1712. — His son, Joseph, a half-breed, was a leader of the eastern Indians in their later difficulties with the English. In December, 1721, he was surprised at Pentagoet and carried a prisoner to Boston. After five months he was released on account of the hostile feelings that his detention provoked among the Abenakis.
# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Salomon, Frederick

Edition of 1900.
​SALOMON, Frederick, soldier, b. near Halberstadt, Prussia, 7 April, 1826. After passing through the gymnasium, he became a government surveyor, later a lieutenant of artillery, and in 1848 a pupil in the Berlin school of architecture. Emigrating soon afterward to the United States, he settled in Manitowoc, Wis., as a surveyor. He was for four years county register of deeds, and in 1857-'9 chief engineer on the Manitowoc and Wisconsin railroad. He entered the volunteer service in the spring of 1861 as a captain in the 5th Missouri volunteers, and served under Gen. Franz Sigel, being present at Wilson's Creek. After the three-months' term of service had expired he was appointed colonel of the 9th Wisconsin infantry, which he commanded in the southwest until he was made a brigadier-general, 16 June, 1862, and assigned to the command of a brigade in Kansas. On 30 Sept. he made an unsuccessful attempt to capture Newtonia, Mo. He served through the war, receiving the brevet of major-general in March, 1865, and was mustered out on 25 Aug., 1865. Gen. Salomon was subsequently for several years surveyor-general of Utah territory, where he now (1888) resides. — His brother, Edward, b. near Halberstadt, Prussia, in 1828, came with him to this country, became a lawyer, was governor of Wisconsin in 1862-'3, and now practises in New York city. He has gained a high reputation as a political speaker, especially in the German language.
# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Salter, Richard

Edition of 1900.
​SALTER, Richard, clergyman, b. in Boston, Mass., in 1723; d. in Mansfield, Conn., 14 April, 1789. He was graduated at Harvard in 1739, studied medicine, and then theology, supplied a pulpit in Boston for some time, and on 27 June, 1744, was ordained pastor of the Congregational church at Mansfield, where he remained till his death. He gave to Yale college in 1781 a farm, which was sold for $2,000, for the purpose of promoting the study of Hebrew and other oriental languages. He was proficient in Greek, Hebrew, and other branches of scholarship. The degree of D. D. was conferred on him by Yale in 1782. He published an “Election Sermon” (1768), and began a “Commentary on the New Testament,” but abandoned his design, when the work was in great part written.
# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Russell, William (elocutionist)

Edition of 1900.
​RUSSELL, William, elocutionist, b. in Glasgow, Scotland, 28 April, 1798; d. in Lancaster, Mass., 17 May, 1873. He was educated in the Latin-school and the university of his native city, and came to this country in 1819, in which year he took charge of Chatham academy, Savannah, Ga. He removed to New Haven a few years later, and taught in the New Township academy and Hopkins grammar-school. He then devoted himself to the instruction of classes in elocution in Andover, Harvard, and Boston, edited the “American Journal of Education” in 1826-'9, and subsequently taught in a girls' school in Germantown, Pa. He resumed his elocution classes in Boston and Andover in 1838, and lectured extensively in New England and New York. He established a teachers' institute in New Hampshire in 1849, which he removed to Lancaster, Mass., in 1853. His subsequent life was devoted to lecturing, for the most part before the Massachusetts teachers' institutes, under the care of the state board of education. He published “Grammar of Composition” (New Haven, 1823); “Lessons in Enunciation” (Boston, 1830); ​“Rudiments of Gesture” (1838); “American Elocutionist” (1844); “Orthophony, or Cultivation of the Voice” (1845); “Elements of Musical Articulation” (1845); “Pulpit Elocution” (1853); “Exercises in Words” (1856); and edited numerous school-books and several minor educational manuals. — His son, Francis Thayer, clergyman, b. in Roxbury, Mass., 10 June, 1828, was educated at Andover, graduated at the theological department of Trinity in 1854, and ordained priest in 1855. Afterward he became pastor of Protestant Episcopal churches in New Britain, Ridgefield, and Waterbury, Conn., and was professor of elocution at Hobart, Trinity, the Berkeley divinity-school, and the General theological seminary, New York city. Since 1875 he has been rector of St. Margaret's diocesan school for girls in Waterbury, Conn. Mr. Russell has won reputation as an elocutionist, still holding professorships in two theological seminaries. He has published “Juvenile Speaker” (New York, 1846), “Practical Reader” (1853), and edited a revised edition of his father's work under the title of “Vocal Culture” (1882), and is the author of “Use of the Voice” (1882).

# Beloved Physician

Approximately written: April 1847. Although Poe apparently had prepared a version of this poem for publication, it was never printed during his lifetime and is now apparently lost. The manuscript in Mrs. Shew's possession contained tens stanzas, though Poe may have reduced these to nine. These few fragments are all that Mrs. Shew (later remarried as Mrs. Houghton) could remember of the poem when she wrote to John H. Ingram on January 23, 1875. The final line might instead have read "The large heart . . . ." Ingram published an article about the poem as "Edgar Allan Poe's Lost Poem 'The Beautiful Physician,'" The Bookman (New York), January 1909, pp. 452-454). The title of the poem here is taken from Poe's letter to Mrs. Shew from June of 1848.
The pulse beats ten and intermits; God nerve the soul that ne'er forgets In calm or storm, by night or day, Its steady toil, its loyalty. [. . . ]
[. . . ] The pulse beats ten and intermits; God shield the soul that ne'er forgets. [. . . ]
[. . . ] The pulse beats ten and intermits; God guide the soul that ne'er forgets. [. . . ]
[. . . ] so tired, so weary, The soft head bows, the sweet eyes close, The faithful heart yields to repose.

# Beloit v. Morgan

* related portals: Supreme Court of the United States.
* sister projects: Wikidata item.
United States Supreme Court
74 U.S. 619
Beloit v. Morgan
APPEAL from the Circuit Court for Wisconsin.
The legislature of Wisconsin, by act of 1853, authorized the supervisors of the town of Beloit to subscribe to the capital stock of a certain railroad company, and to pay for the same in the bonds of the town, payable at the expiration of a term named, and with a rate of interest specified.
The supervisors, professing to execute the authority so conferred, did subscribe to the stock of a certain railroad company and issued bonds; of many of which one Morgan became the holder, bon a fide.
Whether the bonds were issued pursuant to the authority which the statute gave to the supervisors, soon became a matter of controversy between the holders of them and the authorities of Beloit. These last asserted that they were not so issued, but were made without any legal authority; were in violation of the act of the legislature, and constituted a corrupt and usurious contract. They would accordingly pay nothing on the bonds.
In this state of things the legislature of Wisconsin, in 1856, created the city of Beloit; carving it out of territory which constituted the former town of Beloit. The charter of the new city provided thus:
'All principal and interest upon all bonds which have heretofore been issued by the town of Beloit for railroad stock or other purposes, when the same or any portion thereof shall fall due, SHALL be paid by the city and town of Beloit in the same proportions as if said town and city were not dissolved.'
This provision was re-enacted in 1857, in an act amending the charter of the city.
With this act in force, Morgan brought suit at law for the interest of some of his bonds, against the town of Beloit, and on the 9th of January, 1861, obtained judgment against it.
He now also brought other suits against the town, on other of the bonds, not the same specific instruments, of course, as those on which he had obtained judgment, but part of the same issue, and a suit on which involved the same questions as did the suit on those on which he had already recovered.
Thereupon the town of Beloit filed a bill, the bill below, in the Circuit Court for Wisconsin, to enjoin the proceedings at law, and to compel a surrender of the bonds. The answer set up,
1. By way of estoppel, the judgment of 9th January, 1861, on certain of the bonds, as conclusive of the validity of the whole issue, and
2. The act of 1856 and its re-enactment of 1857, and alleged that it was the intention of the legislature to provide by those acts that the bonds in question should be paid; and that they were a legislative ratification of the bonds, with effect to cure any irregularity or want of authority.
The court below dismissed the bill. Appeal accordingly.
Messrs. Palmer and Ryan, for the appellant; Mr. Carpenter, contra.
Mr. Justice SWAYNE delivered the opinion of the court.

United States Supreme Court
96 U.S. 135
Arthur v. Davies
ERROR to the Circuit Court of the United States for the Southern District of New York.
In 1873, Davies & Co. imported into the port of New York certain merchandise, on which the collector imposed and collected a duty of fifty per cent, under the eighth section of the act of July 14, 1862. 12 Stat. 552. The importers insisted that they were liable only to a duty of thirty-five per cent, under the twenty-second section of the act of March 2, 1861 (id. 191), and the thirteenth section of the act of July 14, 1862 (id. 556).
A reduction, under the act of June 6, 1872 (17 id. 231), was allowed.
It was admitted at the trial of the suit brought by Davies & Co. against the collector that the goods were,--
1. Suspenders or braces manufactured of rubber, cotton, and silk; cotton being the component material of chief value.
2. Suspenders or braces manufactured of rubber, cotton, and silk; cotton being the component material of chief value, and the silk, being a few threads, only used for purposes of ornamentation.
It also appeared that they were commercially known as suspenders or braces, and that these terms are synonymous.
Judgment having been rendered for the plaintiffs, the collector sued out this writ of error.
The Solicitor-General for the plaintiff in error.
Mr. Edward Hartley, contra.
