# The Smoaker Smoak'd

A reply to Isaac Hawkins Browne's A Pipe of Tobacco, which parodied Thomson (among others).
Still from thy pipe, as from dull Tophet, say, Ascends the smoak, for ever and for aye? No end of nasty impoetic breath? Foh! dost thou mean to stink the town to death? Wilt thou confound the poets, in thine ire, Thou man of mighty smoak, but little fire! Apollo bids thee from Parnassus fly, Where not one cloud e'er stain'd his purest sky, Hence! and o'er fat Boeotia roll thy steams; Nor spit and spawl about the Muses streams. These maids celestial, like our earthly fair, Cou'd never yet a filthy smoaker bear. Were to the dusky tribe Parnassus free, What clamb'ring up, what crowding shou'd we see? Against the tuneful god what mortal sin? Good lord! what parsons wou'd come bustling in? What foggy politicians, templars, cits! What coffee-house, what ale-house muddy wits! Take this plain lesson, imitating Zany! First learn to write, before you write like any. Be cautious, mortal! whom you imitate, And wise, remember vain Salmoneus' fate; Thro' Grecian cities he, through Elis, drove; And, flashing torches, deem'd himself a Jove: Madman! to think for thunder thus to pass His chariot rattling o'er a bridge of brass. Wrathful at this, from deep surrounding gloom, Th' almighty father seiz'd the forky doom; (No firebrand that, omitting smoaky light, But with impatient vengeance fiercely bright;) He seiz'd, and hurl'd it on the thundering elf, Who straight vile ashes fell, his thunders and himself.

# The New Student's Reference Work/Night-Schools

See also the disclaimer.
Night′-Schools. This term is applied to schools giving instruction only in the evening or to the evening classes of any school. The pupils are usually persons who are prevented from attending day schools by their regular occupations.
Night-schools are of great variety, their nature in any particular locality depending upon local needs. Before the days of compulsory education many persons took advantage of this means of remedying deficiencies in their elementary education. At the present time there is much more demand for evening classes in high school grade of work and for courses in trade and technical schools. Evening schools are of earlier origin and more highly developed in Europe than in America. In many cities good high-school courses are now offered in evening schools. Many of the best trade and technical institutes give evening instruction equal in efficiency to that given in their day classes, as Pratt Institute, New York; Maryland Institute, Baltimore; and Drexel Institute, Philadelphia. Most business and commercial schools, many Y. M. C. A.’s and some law schools give evening courses. Much of the university extension and university settlement work is done in this way.
# The New Student's Reference Work/Nightingale

See also Nightingale on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
Night′ingale, a bird famous on account of its brilliant song, which for quality and variety is not exceeded by that of any other bird. The song of the nightingale has been a theme of poets for ages. Homer wrote of the “sweet, tawny nightingale” that “deep in leafy shades complains, trilling her thick-warbled strains.” Milton called the nightingale “most musical, most melancholy bird.” Coleridge wrote:
“ . . . . . the merry nightingale That crowds, and hurries, and precipitates, With fast, thick warble his delicious notes, As if he were fearful an April night Would be too short for him to utter forth His love-chaunt, and disburden his full soul Of all its music.”
This bird belongs to the group of Old World warblers, and is not found in the New World. Its range is central and western Europe; it is abundant in Spain and Portugal, and abounds in portions of the midland, eastern and southern counties of England. Thicket and hedge and wet meadow are its favorite haunt. It is during the nesting season the male pours forth his glorious song, to be heard from the middle of April to perhaps a little later than the middle of June. Both day and night he sings. Apart from the wonderful song, the utterance of the nightingale is not musical; Mitchell, in Cries and Call-Notes of Wild Birds, declares the common alarm cry very like the croak of a frog, and speaks of its call as a “squeak” and of a high “distress-note.” The bird is about the size of the hedge sparrow; graceful of form; in color, reddish-brown above and grayish-white below. Its loosely constructed nest is usually built on the ground, sometimes in low brush. In rare beauty of song, our hermit thrush has been compared to the nightingale. Our cardinal bird (cardinal grosbeak) is sometimes called the Virginia nightingale.
# The New Student's Reference Work/Nightshade

See also Solanaceae on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
Night′shade, an order of tropical and subtropical herbs and shrubs and a few trees, having for the most part a heavy, offensive odor. There are over a thousand species, the greatest number being found in Central and South America. The leaves have the property of putting to sleep, but lose this when boiled. The typical nightshade has a slender stem, pointed oval leaves, white clustered flowers and small rounded black berries. The several kinds are known by different names — the woody nightshade as bittersweet, deadly nightshade as belladonna, and enchanter’s nightshade as circæa.
# The New Student's Reference Work/Nigeria, Northern and Southern

See also Nigeria on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
Niger′ia, Northern and Southern (formerly the Niger Territories, until Jan. 1, 1900, administered by the Royal Niger Company, but now under the control of the British Crown, along with Lagos colony). Nigeria covers an area in western Africa estimated at 310,000 square miles, with a population placed at 25 millions. It is bounded on the north by the French Military Territory, on the east by Kamerun, on the south by the Gulf of Guinea and on the west by Dahomé. For administrative purposes this vast region is divided into two governments, those of Northern and Southern Nigeria. They embrace the area once the Fula or Sokoto empire, with the subordinate sultanates of Gandu, Kano, Bornu, Benin, etc., watered by the Niger and its tributaries. On the Gulf of Guinea the territories have a seaboard of about 120 miles in length, on which are the towns Akassa, at the mouth of the Niger, the British naval headquarters; Bonny, Wari, Old Calabar and New Calabar. A military force is stationed in southern Nigeria, partly at Asaba and partly at Akassa. The capital of Northern Nigeria is Zungeru, a new one in the direction of Kano, eastward toward Bornu, in a healthier and higher region more suitable for Europeans. Northern Nigeria with 256,400 square miles has a large trade to the mart of Kano by caravan from Salaga in the west, Tripoli, Morocco and the Sahara in the north and Lake Chad and Wadai in the east. The imports are principally cottons, hardware and salt. A light railway runs from Zungeru to Bari-Juko, twenty-four miles, and the survey for its extension to Zaria and Kano is finished. Five stern-wheel steamers, three steam launches and a steam pinnace belonging to the government are on the Niger, and the telegraph runs from the Lagos frontier to Jebba and thence to Lokoja, Zungeru, Zaria and other points, a total of 1,701 miles.
# The New Student's Reference Work/Nightingale, Florence

See also Florence Nightingale on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
Nightingale, Florence, an English philanthropist, daughter of William Edward Nightingale, was born at Florence, Italy, in May, 1820, and during the course of her study of science, mathematics and classics with her father, showed a great desire to lessen human suffering, so much so that in 1844 she began a tour of Europe, looking into the condition of hospitals, and in 1851 entered upon a course of study as a trained nurse at Kaiserswerth on the Rhine. On Nov. 4, 1854, the year of the outbreak of the Crimean War, she arrived at Scutari with thirty trained nurses and took charge of the military hospitals until the close in July of 1856. She then turned her attention to the improvement of the sanitary condition of the army, and wrote many books and papers on that and kindred subjects, among them Notes on Nursing, Notes on Hospitals, Life or Death in India, etc. She was the founder of St. Thomas’ Home in London for the training of nurses and the recipient of a cross from the late Queen Victoria and a bracelet from the sultan of Turkey. Longfellow praised her in Santa Filomena. See Life by S. A. Tooley. She died Aug. 13, 1910.
# The New Student's Reference Work/Niemen

See also Neman River on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
Niemen (nē′ men), a river in western Russia, rises a few miles south of the city of Minsk, divides into two branches below Tilsit, and empties into Kurisches Haff by four mouths to each branch. It is 500 miles long and navigable as far as Grodno.
# The New Student's Reference Work/Niger

See also Niger River on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
Ni′ger, the name generally applied to a remarkable river system of western equatorial Africa, emptying into the Gulf of Guinea. It was thought to be a tributary of the Nile; then of the Kongo; and then supposed to terminate in an inland basin; but the work of Mungo Park and others has settled all but 70 or 80 miles of its length. The Niger proper is 2,600 miles long, and its drainage basin has an area of 1,023,280 square miles. The headwaters are in the present states of Samory, near the headwaters of the Senegal; but the Tembi, rising in the Loma Mountains, 3,000 feet above the sea, is the actual source. From the source to Timbuktu the river has only a few small tributaries, but some distance below here it is joined by the Benuë, or Mother of Waters, traveling 860 miles from the east. Thence the river flows to its mouth, where a beautiful delta is formed. The navigation is free, but the trade, chiefly in palm oil, is under the control of Great Britain. See Joseph Thomson’s Mungo Park and the Niger.
# The New Student's Reference Work/Nicæa

See also İznik on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
Nicæa (nī́-sē′ ȧ), a city of ancient Bithynia in Asia Minor, lies on the eastern shore of Lake Ascania. It was built in 316 B. C. by Antigonus and named Antigoneia, but was changed to Nicæa by Lysimachus in honor of his wife. It is famed as the seat of two ecumenical councils: the first held by Emperor Constantine in 325 A. D.; and the second called by the Empress Irene in 787.
# The New Student's Reference Work/Nighthawk

See also Nighthawk on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
Night′hawk, an American insect-catching bird related to the whip-poor-will, a member of the goatsucker family. It is quiet all day but flies at dusk and is often called the bull-bat. It is common in many parts of the United States from May to October, and may be seen at nightfall, high in the air, sailing back and forth in search of flying insects. It is about the size of the robin, of a dark color mottled with gray, and can always be recognized from its wide wing-spread, making it seem longer than the robin, and its white wing spots, conspicuous in flight, distinguishing it from the whip-poor-will, for which it is often mistaken. It is sometimes called night-jar, and also goes by the name of mosquito-hawk; names more apt than nighthawk, for it is far removed from being a hawk save in keenness of vision. As a rule this bird hunts in small companies of his fellows; one never tires of watching it in its hunting. In the evening, high, high overhead the bird sai1s along, from height and ease making suddenest drop down to lower atmosphere, where its wonderful vision has discovered a fly, mosquito, beetle or moth. During the heat of the day it rests, sitting motionless on limb, wall or lichen-covered rock, — any place where it will be inconspicuous. The nest is made in hollow rock or on bare ground, and there are two speckled gray eggs. These eggs are sometimes found on a house-top in the city. Frequently after nesting-season is over, night-hawks gather in towns, hunt the myriad insects about street-lights, resting on roofs by day. They are widely distributed in North America. When they migrate, they travel in large flocks. The sound made by them is another way in which to distinguish them from the whip-poor-will; as they fly their call is a sharp “pee-ent! pee-ent!” and when they make a drop through the air and then turn suddenly upward, there is heard a peculiar “boo-oom, boo-oom” — thought to be caused by the action of the air on the outstretched wings and tail. In localities where they are numerous the evening air resounds with the nighthawk’s boom, which, heard at a distance, betrays the unseen bird. See Chapman: Bird Life.
# The New Student's Reference Work/Niebuhr, Barthold Georg

See also Barthold Georg Niebuhr on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
Niebuhr (nḗ′ bo͞or′), Barthold Georg, a distinguished modern historian, was born at Copenhagen, Aug. 27, 1776. After careful study at Kiel, he devoted himself to the study of natural sciences at London and Edinburgh. In 1800 he married and entered the Danish state service, from which he resigned in 1806 to enter the Prussian state service. From 1810 to 1812 he gave a course of lectures at the new University of Berlin on Roman history. From 1816 to 1823 he was German ambassador to the papal court. He died at Bonn, Prussia, Jan. 2, 1813. Some of his works are Lectures on the History of Rome, Lectures on Ancient History and History of Byzantium.

O CAPTAIN! MY CAPTAIN!
Walt Whitman. Arr. from C. M. Wyman.
O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,

My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still;
The ship has weathered every rack, the prize we sought is won;

The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all ex - ult - ing,
For you bouquets and ribbon'd wreaths — for you the shores a - crowd-ing,
The ship is anchor'd safe and sound, its voyage closed and done;
While follow eyes the steady keel, the ves - sel
