United States Supreme Court
74 U.S. 578
Morris and Johnson v. United States
APPEAL from the District Court for the Middle District of Alabama.
By an act of Congress of August 6th, 1861, property used in aid of the rebellion was made the lawful subject of prize and capture wherever found; and it was made the duty of the President of the United States to cause the same to be seized, confiscated, and condemned. And a subsequent act, that of 17th July, 1862, authorized the seizure and confiscation of the property of certain persons engaged in the rebellion.
These statutes being in force, an information was exhibited in this case in the court below, alleging, in substance, that certain bales of cotton had become the property of the United States through the surrender of the Confederate General Taylor, on the 5th of May, 1865, or otherwise had become liable to seizure and condemnation under the acts of Congress just mentioned; that this cotton was stored, until some day in April not specified, in the warehouse of the defendant, Johnson; and on some day, not specified, in the year 1865, was removed by him and the defendant, Morris, from the warehouse and sold; and that the said defendants had appropriated the proceeds to their own use. The information did not allege that the cotton was at the time, or had ever been, in any place where it could be seized, or that any proceeds of the sale existed in any such form as to be capable of seizure.
The defendants answered, setting up various matters of defence, and filed with their answer several exceptions to the information, of which two only, as this court considered, required notice.
The first was, that the information did not show any valid and subsisting seizure at the time of filing the information.
The second was, that the information did not allege any seizure under the acts of Congress.
These exceptions were overruled by the District Court, which proceeded to render a personal judgment against the defendants for the value of the cotton, as found by the court. From this decree the defendants appealed.
Mr. Chilton, for the appellants.
Mr. Ashton, Assistant Attorney-General, contra.
The CHIEF JUSTICE delivered the opinion of the court.

# Morris and Johnson v. United States/Opinion of the Court

* Opinion of the Court
United States Supreme Court
74 U.S. 578
Morris and Johnson v. United States
In proceeding to render a personal judgment against the defendants, for the value of the cotton, as found by it, the District Court erred.
Without adverting to the principles settled in the cases of the Union Insurance Company v. United States and Armstrong's Foundry, we are clearly of opinion-first, that the information, at most, presents only a case of the unlawful conversion of property to the use of the appellants, and that for redress of such an injury this proceeding by information cannot be sustained; and second, that neither the act of 1861 nor the act of 1862 contemplated any proceeding, as in admiralty, where there existed no specific property or proceeds capable of seizure and capture.
The decree of the District Court must therefore be REVERSED, and the cause remanded, with directions to the District Court to cause restitution to be made to the appellants of whatever sum of money they have been compelled to pay under that decree.

| Episode Narrative | Strong southern winds brought warm temperatures and plenty of moisture into an environment of strong wind shear ahead of an advancing cold front. This resulted in unusually warm temperatures for a December day and the ingredients to produce a historic tornado outbreak and flash flooding. This included multiple long track tornadoes. Central Kentucky saw 18 tornadoes that injured 96 and killed 18. An additional death occurred in a flash flood. |
| Event Narrative | This tornado is a continuation of the western Kentucky (Mayfield) tornado and will go down as the longest continuous tornado track on record in the Commonwealth of Kentucky at 163 miles (plus another two miles in Tennessee). This tornado developed in Obion County, Tennessee near Woodland Mills Road before tracking to the northeast through western Kentucky and on into central Kentucky (see Storm Data from the Memphis, Tennessee and the Paducah, Kentucky offices for more information on the beginning portion of this tornado). The tornado finally came to an end in Grayson County, Kentucky at Rough River Dam State Park. This is the second of five segments of this tornado in the Louisville, Kentucky County Warning Area. The tornado arrived in Breckinridge County, crossed Schneider Road, and damaged a cattle barn and trees, before entering Grayson County. |

Missouri Pacific Railway Company v. Chicago & A. R. Railroad Company
In this action, tried by the circuit court without a jury, there is no case stated by the parties, or finding of facts by the court. The bill of exceptions, after setting forth all the evidence introduced at the trial, states that 'there were no declarations of law asked for or given by the court;' and the single exception taken is to the overruling of a motion for a new trial, which is a matter of discretion, and not a subject of exception, according to the practice of the courts of the United States. In regard to motions for a new trial and bills of exceptions, those courts are independent of any statute or practice prevailing in the courts of the state in which the trial is had. Railroad Co. v. Horst, 93 U.S. 291; Newcomb v. Wood, 97 U.S. 581; In re Iron Co., 128 U.S. 544, 9 Sup. Ct. Rep. 150.

# Moments with the consoling Christ/Christ Our Divine Teacher

Christ our Divine Teacher
Direct me in Thy truth; and teach me; for Thou art God my Saviour; and on Thee have I waited all the day long.
— Ps. 24:5.
O TRUTH! my God! make me one with Thee in everlasting love. I am often wearied with the many things I read and hear; in Thee is all that I wish or long for.
LET all teachers hold their peace, and all created things keep silence in Thy presence; do Thou alone speak to me.
HELP me, Lord God, in my good purpose and in Thy holy service, and grant that I may this day begin indeed, since what I have hitherto done is nothing.
SPEAK, Lord, for Thy servant heareth. I am Thy servant; give me understanding, that I may know Thy testimonies.
​INCLINE my heart to the words of Thy mouth; let Thy speech distill as the dew.
HERETOFORE the children of Israel said to Moses: Speak thou to us, and we will hear; let not the Lord speak to us, lest we die.
IT is not thus, Lord, it is not thus I pray ; but rather with the Prophet Samuel I humbly and earnestly entreat: Speak, Lord, for Thy servant heareth.
LET not Moses, nor any of the Prophets, speak to me; but speak Thou rather, Lord God, the Inspirer and Enlightener of all the Prophets; for Thou alone, without them, canst perfectly instruct me; but they, without Thee, will avail me nothing.
THEY may indeed sound forth words, but they give not the spirit.
MOST beautifully do they speak; but if Thou be silent, they inflame not the heart.
​THEY give the letter, but Thou disclosest the sense.
THEY publish the mysteries, but Thou unlockest the meaning of the things signified.
THEY declare the commandments, but Thou enablest us to fulfill them.
THEY show the way, but Thou givest strength to walk in it.
WHAT they can do is only from without, but Thou instructest and enlightenest the heart.
THEY water outwardly, but Thou givest the increase.
THEY cry aloud in words, but Thou impartest understanding to the hearing.
LET not, then, Moses speak to us, but Thou, Lord my God, the eternal ​Truth, lest I die and prove fruitless, if I be admonished only outwardly, and not inflamed within.
LEST it be to my condemnation that the word be heard and not fulfilled, known and not loved, believed and not observed.
SPEAK then, Lord, for Thy servant heareth: for Thou hast the words of eternal life.
SPEAK to me, that it may be some comfort to my soul, and the amendment of my whole life; and also to Thy praise, and glory, and everlasting honor.
BLESSED is the man whom Thou, Lord, shalt instruct, and shalt teach him Thy law; that Thou mayest give him rest from the evil days and that he may not be desolate upon earth.
# Moments with the consoling Christ/The Cross Of Christ

The Cross of Christ
God forbid that I should glory save in the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ.
— Gal. 6:14.
O CROSS of my Saviour! I adore Thee, I embrace thee with the most profound humility, the most ardent love.
O CROSS, how happy art thou to have pillowed the thorn-crowned head of the Holy of Holies, and supported His nail-pierced feet! Thou art forever sanctified by the body of Jesus and consecrated by His blood.
THOU art the bed of pain which heard the last words and received the last sigh of the Son of God; the altar upon which He offered Himself for the sins of the world. Thou art the Ark of the Covenant bearing the Author of the Old and the New Testament, the urn of gold enclosing the hidden Manna, the treasury of the riches of heaven.
​BLESSED Cross! from thee have come the Sacraments of the Church. By thee Priests are consecrated, the sick receive the last anointing, the dying are strengthened and comforted.
O CROSS of my Redeemer and my Cod, how sweet and powerful thou art to heal the wounds of our soul, to comfort our sorrowing hearts! Thou hast brought salvation and joy to the world, and plunged into hell the demons of gloom and despair.
THOU art the hope of the faithful, the shield of martyrs, the strength of confessors, the crown of virgins, the consolation of the sorrowing, the support of old age, the guide of youth, and the refuge of all in tribulation.
PRECIOUS tree, thou that hast borne on thy branches the Fruit of Life, and witnessed the anguish of the Mother of Jesus, grant that at my death I may be received by Him to whom thou hast served as the instrument of my salvation. Amen.
# Moments of the Dance

* information about this edition.
* sister projects: Wikidata item.
Song from the musical Head over Heels.
[Verse]
    Oh dancing is a tonic
    That sets you all aglow
    Like bubbles of carbonic
    When wine begins to flow
    and once the dance you've started
    it's hard for you to stop
    you spin 'round turning o'er the ground
    just like a human top
    So let yourself just go.
    You know when you hear the strain
    You can't refrain
[Burthen]
    Faster and faster as each step you master
    in the moments of the dance
    You get much closer and closer your fondness to show, sir,
    for the moments of the dance,
    Then slyly and wily your cheeks touch shyly
    by the merest of chance
    dearest lets dance
    Old steps or new steps don't matter you see,
    When you dance a few steps with me.
