SMUGGLERS’ and GAUGERS.
Air———Bonnets sae Blue.
Come all my brave fellows, sad listen a while,
I’ll tell yon the way that they did us beguiie; The King’s Lyon-Herald from Edinburgh did come, And straight to Coalsnaughton the rascals did run.
They came to my mothers, and guarded all-round, They thought we would run but the contrar’ they found; So straight down to Alloa we came all away, To Ramsay’s in the Tontine, and made no delay.
Being innocent all, no harm we thought on; But came down to Alloa, before Mr. Horn, The same who is Agent for the Excise-Law, We made no delay, so we all came awa(illegible text)
But had we but known what Warrand they had, We would not gone with them, but given them the bag; But since Fortune has said it t(illegible text) let it be so, From the Tontine to Stirling in coaches we'll go.
The seventeenth of April our trial we did (illegible text), Before Lords and Jury, that honourable band; But for all the false oaths that were going that day, I would have come off, had I gotten fair play.
​But D—n, the rascal, he forward did come,
And gave in two letters, to get us undone; Before the Lords they were laid, and shown most rare, That we fished for salmon, and shot at the hare.
There’s D—n and R—t, and J—s, as you see,
They perjur’d themselves for the ruin of me; But the day it is coming when judged they’ll be; And it will be shown them they swore to a lie.
D—n was examin’d, and he did declare, That th(illegible text) Still and the malt in the Store up-laid were; But Peter the gardener, that very same day, Did carry the Still to Muircoat straight away.
But it’s needless for me to say what I could tell, If they don’t get repentance, the worse for themsel’, So I’d have them to pray wherever they be, For the unfounded falsehoods they swore against me.
But praying, I think, is what they wont do, And therefore I wish for ill trade to the crew; But may Heaven, with pity, look down on the three, And grant them repentance, and grace that is free.
And now, my dear friends, I bid you farewel, My (illegible text)‘s grown to weary no more will she tell;
But the story I have told you, I’m sure it is true, And I’ll comeback and see you when time will allow.

​TERLIZZI, a town of Italy, in the province of Bari, and 20 miles west from that town, stands in the midst of a fertile plain. It has a castle which at one time was very strong and occasionally resorted to by the emperor Frederick II. and afterwards by the Aragonese sovereigns. The walls and towers of the town still remain, but the fosse has been turned into boulevards. Terlizzi has a considerable trade, chiefly in the wine and fruit of the district. The population of the town in 1881 was 20,442 (commune, 20,592).}}
# Encyclopædia Britannica, Ninth Edition/Teplitz

See also Teplice on Wikipedia; Teplitz in the 11th edition; and the disclaimer.
TEPLITZ, or Töplitz, one of the most frequented watering-places in the north of Bohemia, is picturesquely situated about 30 miles south of Dresden, in the plain of the Biela, which separates the Erzgebirge from the Bohemian Mittelgebirge. The main interest of the little town centres in the bathing season, which, reaches its height in August; and the arrangements for the convenience and amusement of visitors are very complete. There is a large curhaus, and numerous handsome bath-houses are situated both in Teplitz and in the immediately adjoining village of Schönau. The environs are laid out in pretty and shady gardens and promenades, the finest being in the park which surrounds the château of Prince Clary, the superior of the town. The other chief buildings are the Roman Catholic and Protestant churches, the Jewish synagogue with a conspicuous dome, and the theatre. The saline-alkaline springs of Teplitz, ten to twelve in number, ranging in temperature from 90° to 117° Fahr., are classed among what are called "indifferent" waters. Used until lately almost exclusively for bathing, they are prescribed for gout, rheumatism, and some scrofulous affections, and their reputed efficacy in alleviating the effects of gun-shot wounds had gained for Teplitz the sobriquet of “the warriors’ bath.” Military baths are maintained in the town by the Governments of Austria, Prussia, and Saxony, and there are also bath-houses for the poor. Teplitz is much visited for the after-cure, after Carlsbad and similar spas. The number of patients in 1883 was 6000 and the passing visitors were almost as numerous. The presence of a bed of lignite in the neighbourhood has encouraged the industrial development of Teplitz, which carries on manufactures of cotton and woollen goods, india-rubber, chemicals, hardware, &c. In 1880 the united population of Teplitz and Schönau was 16,750.
The thermal springs are fabled to have been discovered as early as 762, but the first authentic mention of the baths occurs in the 16th century. The town is mentioned in the 12th century, the name being derived from a Slavonic word meaning “warm bath.” Teplitz figures in the history of Wallenstein, and is also interesting as the spot where the monarchs of Austria, Russia, and Prussia first signed the triple alliance against Napoleon in 1813. It is a ​curious fact that on the day of the earthquake at Lisbon (1st November 1775) the main spring at Teplitz ceased to how for some minutes.
# Encyclopædia Britannica, Ninth Edition/Teramo

See also Teramo on Wikipedia; the 11th edition; and the disclaimer.
TERAMO, a town of Italy, capital of the province of Teramo (formerly Abruzzo Ulteriore I.) and an episcopal see, stands on the left bank of the Tordino where it is joined by the Yezzola, 12 miles from the coast and 876 feet above sea-level. It is connected by a branch line with Giulianova on the railway from Ancona to Brindisi. The picturesque valley of the Tordino is here dominated by the peaks of the Gran Sasso d'Italia (9522 feet). The town is traversed by one straight wide street with large houses, but for the most part it consists of narrow dirty lanes; the modern suburbs are good. The cathedral (1317-55) has been greatly modernized; the church of San Agostino is in the later Gothic style. The antiquities include remains of a gateway, a theatre, and baths, as well as numerous inscriptions. There are manufactures of wool and silk, and of straw hats and pottery. The population of the town in 1881 was 8634, with its suburbs 13,988 (commune, 20,309)
Teramo is the ancient Interamna Prætutiana, capital of the Prætutii. In the Middle Ages it was known as Aprutium (whence Abruzzo) ; the intermediate form of the present name was Teramne.
# Encyclopædia Britannica, Ninth Edition/Teraphim

See also Teraphim on Wikipedia; Teraphim in the 11th edition; and the disclaimer.
TERAPHIM (תרפים), a Hebrew word found only in the plural, which the Authorized Version sometimes simply transcribes (Judges xvii. 5, xviii. 14 sq.; Hosea iii. 4), but elsewhere translates by ‘images” (Gen. xxxi. 19 and often elsewhere), ‘‘image” (1 Sam. xix. 13), “idols” (Zech. x. 2), “idolatry” (1 Sam. xv, 23). The etymology of the word is quite obscure (see Gesenius, Thesaurus, p. 1519 sq.,), but it appears that the teraphim were a kind of idols (Gen. xxxi. 30), with something of a human figure (1 Sam. xix. 13); and, though their use was condemned by the prophets (1 Sam. xv. 23; cp. 2 Kings xxiii. 24), they were long commonly used in popular worship, both domestic (1 Sam, xix. 13, in the house of David and Michal) and public (Judges xviii.). They are associated with the ephod, which in this connexion seems to mean a plated image, and Hosea speaks of ephod and teraphim as essential elements in the religious usages of northern Israel. Like the ephod, they were specially associated with divination, and in particular with the sacred lot (Zech. x. 2; Ezek. xxi. 21 [26]). From the last passage it appears that teraphim were used by the Babylonians as well as by the Hebrews. These statements and references cover all that is known about the teraphim; the fables of the rabbins are collected in Buxtorf, Lex. Talmud., 2660 sq.

# Encyclopædia Britannica, Ninth Edition/Termini

See also Termini on Wikipedia; Termini in the 11th edition; and the disclaimer.
​TERMINI, or Termini Imerese (Thermæ Himerenses), a town on the north coast of Sicily, at the mouth of a river of the same name, in the province of Palermo, and ​23 miles east-south-east of that town. None of its modern buildings are of any special interest; in the Piano de San Giovanni above the town the substructure of a Roman villa has been excavated, and there are also traces of an amphitheatre. Termini is one of the busiest provincial towns of Sicily; the surrounding district being exceedingly fertile and the harbour good, there is a considerable export trade in grain, fruit, tartar, and other products. The macaroni of Termini is in high repute. The tunny and sardine fisheries are extensive, and there is a school of navigation. The warm saline springs (110 Fahr.), sung by Pindar, are still largely resorted to, there being a well-appointed bath establishment, founded by Ferdinand I. The population of the town in 1881 was 22,370, with its suburbs 22,733 (commune, 23,148).
For the ancient history of Termini see Himera. The castle of Termini, which Robert of Naples besieged in vain in 1338, was destroyed in 1860.

Ambassador, in the Old Testament the Hebrew word Tsir, meaning "one who goes on an errand", is rendered thus (Joshua 9:4; Proverbs 13:17; Isaiah 18:2; Jeremiah 49:14; Obadiah 1:1). This is also the rendering of Melits, meaning "an interpreter", in 2 Chronicles 32:31; and of Malak, a "messenger", in 2 Chronicles 35:21; Isaiah 30:4; 33:7; Ezek. 17:15. This is the name used by the apostle as designating those who are appointed by God to declare his will (2 Corinthians 5:20; Ephesians 6:20).
The Hebrews on various occasions and for various purposes had recourse to the services of ambassadors, e.g., to contract alliances (Joshua 9:4), to solicit favours (Numbers 20:14), to remonstrate when wrong was done (Judges 11:12), to condole with a young king on the death of his father (2 Samuel 10:2), and to congratulate a king on his accession to the throne (1 Kings 5:1).
To do injury to an ambassador was to insult the king who sent him (2 Samuel 10:5).

Amethyst, one of the precious stones in the breastplate of the high priest (Exodus 28:19; 39:12), and in the foundation of the New Jerusalem (Revelation 21:20). The ancients thought that this stone had the power of dispelling drunkenness in all who wore or touched it, and hence its Greek name formed from A_, "privative", and _methuo , "To get drunk". Its Jewish name, Ahlamah', was derived by the rabbins from the Hebrew word Halam, "to dream", from its supposed power of causing the wearer to dream.
It is a pale-blue crystallized quartz, varying to a dark purple blue. It is found in Persia and India, also in different parts of Europe.

Amaziah, strengthened by Jehovah.
(1.) A Levite, son of Hilkiah, of the descendants of Ethan the Merarite (1 Chronicles 6:45).
(2.) The son and successor of Joash, and eighth king of the separate kingdom of Judah (2 Kings 14:1-4). He began his reign by punishing the murderers of his father (5-7; 2 Chronicles 25:3-5). He was the first to employ a mercenary army of 100,000 Israelite soldiers, which he did in his attempt to bring the Edomites again under the yoke of Judah (2 Chronicles 25:5,6). He was commanded by a prophet of the Lord to send back the mercenaries, which he did (2 Chronicles 25:7-10,13), much to their annoyance. His obedience to this command was followed by a decisive victory over the Edomites (2 Chronicles 25:14-16). Amaziah began to worship some of the idols he took from the Edomites, and this was his ruin, for he was vanquished by Joash, king of Israel, whom he challenged to battle. The disaster he thus brought upon Judah by his infatuation in proclaiming war against Israel probably occasioned the conspiracy by which he lost his life (2 Kings 14:8-14,19). He was slain at Lachish, whither he had fled, and his body was brought upon horses to Jerusalem, where it was buried in the royal sepulchre (2 Kings 14:19,20; 2 Chronicles 25:27,28).
(3.) A priest of the golden calves at Bethel (Amos 7:10-17).
(4.) The father of Joshah, one of the Simeonite chiefs in the time of Hezekiah (1 Chronicles 4:34).

Amber, (Ezekiel 1:4,27; 8:2. Heb., hashmal, rendered by the LXX. elektron, and by the Vulgate electrum), a metal compounded of silver and gold. Some translate the word by "polished brass", others "fine brass", as in Revelation 1:15; 2:18. It was probably the mixture now called electrum. The word has no connection, however, with what is now called amber, which is a gummy substance, reckoned as belonging to the mineral kingdom though of vegetable origin, a fossil resin.

Amen, this Hebrew word means firm, and hence also faithful (Revelation 3:14). In Isaiah 65:16, the Authorized Version has "the God of truth," which in Hebrew is "the God of Amen." It is frequently used by our Saviour to give emphasis to his words, where it is translated "verily." Sometimes, only, however, in John's Gospel, it is repeated, "Verily, verily." It is used as an epithet of the Lord Jesus Christ (Revelation 3:14).
It is found singly and sometimes doubly at the end of prayers (Psalms 41:13; 72:19; 89:52), to confirm the words and invoke the fulfilment of them. It is used in token of being bound by an oath (Numbers 5:22; Deuteronomy 27:15-26; Nehemiah 5:13; 8:6; 1 Chronicles 16:36). In the primitive churches it was common for the general audience to say "Amen" at the close of the prayer (1 Corinthians 14:16).
The promises of God are Amen; i.e., they are all true and sure (2 Corinthians 1:20).
