He was educated at Oscott College and at Christ's College, Cambridge, where, with Darwin, he attended the lectures of Professor Henslow, which gave ​an impulse to his tastes for natural science, already strong in him.

In 1852 he entered Parliament for Carlow, and in 1855 became Under-Secretary of the Colonies, in which position he was able to advance the cause of science by advocating the expedition under Palliser to explore the Canadian route to the Pacific, and by supporting Sir W. Hooker's efforts to systematize the floras of the British Colonies. In 1858, being defeated at Limerick, he retired from politics, and resumed his scientific studies, pursuing them in the Alps, in Morocco, and South America, and publishing from time to time the results of his researches in the Alpine Guide, and other scientific journals, his best known papers being his Journal of a Tour in Morocco (1878); his Notes of a Naturalist in South America (1887); and his Peaks, Passes, and Glaciers of the Alps (1859).

Supreme Court of the United States
407 U.S. 143
Adams, Warden v. Williams
Certiorari to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit
No. 70-283. Argued: April 10, 1972 --- Decided: June 12, 1972
Acting on a tip supplied moments earlier by an informant known to him, a police officer asked respondent to open his car door. Respondent lowered the window, and the officer reached into the car and found a loaded handgun (which had not been visible from the outside) in respondent's waistband, precisely where the informant said it would be. A search incident to the arrest disclosed heroin on respondent's person (as the informant had reported), as well as other contraband in the car. Respondent's petition for federal habeas corpus relief was denied by the District Court. The Court of Appeals reversed, holding that the evidence that had been used in the trial resulting in respondent's conviction had been obtained by an unlawful search.
Held: As Terry v. Ohio, 392 U.S. 1, recognizes, a policeman making a reasonable investigatory stop may conduct a limited protective search for concealed weapons when he has reason to believe that the suspect is armed and dangerous. Here the information from the informant had enough indicia of reliability to justify the officer's forcible stop of petitioner and the protective seizure of the weapon, which afforded reasonable ground for the search incident to the arrest that ensued. Pp. 145-149.

# Abroad with Mark Twain and Eugene Field/Mark and the English Hack-writer

MARK TWAIN AND THE ENGLISH HACK-WRITER
A Berlin cartoon paper, "Ulk," once represented Twain as "an Arthurian Knight, canned up to the neck in armour," galloping after kill-joys and such, and picking them up with his lance and warhooping like wild. That's what he would like to have done to the hack of a London publishing house, who had interfered with his copy, striking out sentences, and words, and substituting his own "insular ignorance" wherever Mark's broad humanity ran amuck of public opinion as he, the hack, understood it.
Mark told me that he spent three days "abolishing that cad" (quoting from Carlyle) and I think he added:
"I gave him at least part of the Hades and brimstone he deserved. There were such moving passages as 'monumental ass,' 'masticator of commonplaces,' 'offspring of a court fool,' 'clownish idiot,' etc. All the hatred, all the venom that was in my system I let loose upon that damn' fool, squirted it into him with all the force that I was capable of. Oh, I laid him out. If he had had the chance to read the letter, his own mother would not have recognized him.
"But, as you may have heard, women know these things better, and Livy destroyed that wonderful letter of mine, burned it up ​or fed it to the chickens—I don't know which. Anyhow the letter wasn't mailed and that English fool thinks to this very day that he flabbergasted me."
