​Dupuis. — Dupuis is a refugee family from Bourdeaux. At the beginning of last century it consisted of three sons, Philip, Stephen, and John, and two daughters, Hester (Mrs. Pullain), and Mary (Mrs. Boucher). Philip Dupuis, styled “of Pall-Mall,” who was buried at St. Martin’s-in-the-Fields on 27th March 1707, had three sons, Abraham (who received a medal for the Battle of Dumblain in 1715, and died in 1737), John (born 1695), and Philip (born 1697). Abraham was the father of Abraham Dupuis, American merchant of Gracechurch Street, who died in October 1777, having had two sons, Lieutenant-Colonel Richard Dupuis, of the 2nd Dragoon Guards (born 1763, died 1837), and Rev. George Dupuis, Rector of Wendlebury (born 1757, died 1839). The venerable clergyman was the father of General Sir John Edward Dupuis, K.C.B., whose memoir is now to be summarized.
John Edward Dupuis was educated at the Military Academy, Woolwich, and admitted to the Royal Artillery as a Second Lieutenant on 13th February 1825, and became a First Lieutenant on 8th November 1827. Lieutenant Dupuis was with the Spanish Army from 1836 to 1838, and shared in the action of Hernani. He was promoted to the rank of Captain on 22nd July 1840, and continued to serve in that rank with the brevet rank of Major from 8th January 1847 to 22nd April 1853, when he became a Lieutenant-Colonel of Artillery. He was recalled to active-service by the war with Russia, known as the Crimean war, in 1854, and was present at the battles of Alma, 20th September; Balaklava, 25th October; and Inkerman, 5th November. The Siege of Sebastopol lasted from 17th October 1854 to 10th September 1855; and Lieutenant-Colonel Dupuis was twice in command of our artillery during that memorable siege. He was made a Companion of the Bath (C.B.). The Mutiny in India broke our peace in 1857; he commanded the artillery there from 1857 to 1859, and had a share in many of the events of the campaign, including the operations before Cawnpore. In 1865 he received the command of the 11th Brigade of Royal Artillery, and was made a Knight Commander of the Bath (K.C.B.). He rose from the rank of Colonel successively to be Major-General and Lieutenant-Gcneral, and he became a full General in 1868. General Sir John Edward Dupuis, K.C.B., wore the orders of San Fernando of Spain, Legion of Honour and the Medjidie — also the Crimean medal with four clasps, and the Indian and Sardinian medals. He died on 25th November 1876.

​Montresor. — Mon Trésor was the heraldic motto of the old French family of Le Tresor. The name of Guillaume Le Tresor, Vicomte de Conde-sur-Moyreaux, occurs as early as i486, and it is said that Ciprien Le Tresor, Vicomte de Carentan, who flourished in 1547, was his son. From him a Huguenot refugee in England in 1685 claimed descent, namely, Jaques Le Tresor, who died in 1691. He was the father of Jaques Gabriel, who obtained distinction in our army as Major James Montresor; he was born at Caen in 1667, and therefore was a refugee along with his father. At his death he was Lieutenant-Governor of Fortwilliam, and a Major in the 2ist or Royal North British Fusiliers. The place of his death was Edinburgh, and the date 22nd January 1724, his age being fifty-six. He was buried in the Canongate Churchyard in the ground belonging to an octogenarian lady, the proprietrix of Giblistoun. He had married on 5th February 1699-1700, Nanon de Hauteville, daughter of a military refugee from Normandy, a colonel in the English army; she died as his widow in 1738, and was buried at Paddington. Major Montresor had acquired the estate of Thurland Hall, Nottingham, in which he was succeeded by his son, James Gabriel, born 19th November 1702, who seems to have served in the army, because he was married at Gibraltar on 11th June 1735, and his eldest son, John, was born there on 6th April 1736. John was his Majesty’s Chief Engineer of America; the second son, James, was a Lieutenant, R.N., lost in the Aurora frigate; the third son, Henry Amand, was in the army, and died in 1773, aged twenty-seven, of wounds received at the siege of Trichinopoly; the fourth son was Major John Fleming Montresor, Governor of Port-Royal, Jamaica; the fifth son was Major Robert Montresor of the 100th Regiment of Foot.
John Montresor, noted above, married, on 1st March 1764, Frances, only child of Thomas Tucker, of Bermuda. He had three military sons, namely, General Sir Henry Tucker, Montresor, K.C.B., G.C.H., Colonel of the 11th Foot, born 18th April 1767, died 10th March 1837; Lieut.-Colonel John Montresor, born at New York, ​11th November 1768, died at Penang in 1805; General Sir Thomas Gage Montresor, K.C.H., Colonel of the 2nd Dragoon Guards, born at New York, 4th March 1774, died at Dover, 26th April 1853; he had served in Flanders, Egypt, and India, was Major-General in 1813, and General in 1841. The family seems to be numerously represented both by descendants of Sir Henry and by those of his brother, the younger general, whose eldest surviving son is Admiral Frederick Byng Montresor.

THE CATCH.
I have a friend who is a Special Constable. He has had an experience which by no means casts any discredit upon him; but he would rather not write about it himself, he says; so I take up the pen on his behalf.
My friend is an artist, and as such is accustomed to use his eyes. The other day he saw a smartly dressed man whom he conceived to be a German spy, for, besides wearing an alien aspect, he carried a walking-stick which tapered suspiciously on the way down, and near the top of it was an obvious little catch. "A sword stick!" said the Special Constable to himself.
He followed the man. The man ultimately entered the purlieus of a police station and joined a queue of exotics who were waiting to be registered.
The Special Constable then accosted a pukka Police Inspector who was standing at the door and explained his suspicion as to the walking-stick and its probably contents. The Police Inspector also thought there might be something in it. He beckoned to the German. The alien enemy, trembling palpably, came up to him.
"Any arms?" asked the Inspector.
"No," replied the alien enemy, still trembling.
"Undo the catch of that stick," commanded the Inspector. With fumbling fingers the alien enemy did so—and drew forth a silk umbrella.

THE NEW SCHOOL OF DIVINITY.
[The most fashionable and eminent German theologians have enthusiastically endorsed the official view of Germany as the hierophant of Peace and Concord reluctantly forced into a defensive war by the perfidy of England. As worshippers in the new Temple of Teutonic Truth they may be imagined to express themselves much as follows.]
"As the ghostly adviser
Of Wilhelm our Kaiser
I think this erection
Is simply perfection.
No censure can dim it,
Because it's the limit
In massive proportions
And splendid distortions.
To compare it with Ammon,
Whose temple's at Karnak,
Is the veriest gammon,"
Exclaims Dr. Harnack.
"Since the days of my youth
I have laboured for Truth,
And, though keenly assailed
By the arrows of slander,
She has mostly prevailed.
But now that she's nailed
To our counter for aye,
Neither black, white nor Grey
Shall have power to withstand her." (Signed) Dr. Dryander.

PROBATION.
(To a King's Recruit.)
Now is your time of trial, now When into dusk the glamour pales And the first glow of passion fails That lit your eyes and flushed your brow In that great moment when you made your vow.
The Vision fades; you scarce recall The sudden swelling of the heart, The swift resolve to have your part In this the noblest quest of all By which our word is given to stand or fall.
Your mother's pride, your comrades' praise— All that romance that seemed so fair Grows dim, and you are left to bear The prose of duty's sombre ways And labour of the long unlovely days.
Yet here's the test to prove you kin With those to whom we trust our fate, Sober and steadfast, clean and straight, In that stern school of discipline Hardened to war against the foe within.
For only so, in England's sight, By that ordeal's searching flame Found worthy of your fathers' fame, With all your spirit's armour bright Can you go forth in her dear cause to fight.

KINGS FROM THE EAST.
Cities of wonderment,
Pink as the morn,
There, of the sunrise sent,
Reigned the Sun-Born;
From the high heaven's gate,
Sprung from the flame,
Ere Nineveh was great,
Ere Thebes a name!
Emeralds, milky pearls
Plucked from blue seas,
Footfall of silken girls— Such for their ease;
Shimmer and silken sheen,
Jewel and maid— These but the damascene
Chasing the blade!
For on a royal day
Lost in the years
Chose they the Happy Way— The way of spears;
Ere Rome's first bastionings
Climbed from the sods
In the old East were kings
Warring with gods.
Lo, through the eastern sky
Crimson is drawn,
Kings in their panoply
Ride with the dawn;
Sprung from high heaven's gate,
Sprung from the flame,
Ere Nineveh was great,
Ere Thebes a name!

THE EVANGELIST.
I have found favour in the sight of God; From all His servants He selected Me To take His gospel, "God and Germany," To Belgian heretics. Lo, I have trod Through Belgium terribly, and taught the pack: I put their ancient cities to the sack, I gave their men and women to the sword, I took their Belgian babes upon my knee And broke them to the glory of the Lord.
It may be that one Belgian kennel stands, One Belgian dog, not trampled into dust, Still battles on beside these hosts of Hell Who think to question the Most High's commands - God will forgive me one, for He is just; The blood of many thousands lights my fest; Calmly I step before the Judgment Seat— "Have I done well, O Lord, have I done well?"

JUSTICE SCALIA, concurring in part and concurring in the judgment.
I concur in the result, and in the portions of the Court's opinion applying 18 U.S.C. § 3182 and overruling Kentucky v. Dennison, 24 How. 66 (1861), insofar as it interpreted the predecessor of that statute. I note that no party before us has asserted the lack of power of Congress to require extradition from a State to a Territory.

JUSTICE O'CONNOR, with whom JUSTICE POWELL joins, concurring in part and concurring in the judgment.
I join Parts I, II-A, II-C, and III of the Court's opinion. Because the Court ultimately resolves this case under the [p231] Extradition Act, 18 U.S.C. § 3182 I do not find Part II-B, and its statements concerning the Extradition Clause of the Constitution, necessary to the decision of this case. Accordingly, I do not subscribe to that part of the Court's opinion. See, e.g., Jean v. Nelson, 472 U.S. 846, 854 (1985); Kolender v. Lawson, 461 U.S. 352, 361, n. 10 (1983); Ashwander v.

# Proclamation 5813

Delivered on 5 May 1988.
By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation
Government employees, with their commitment to excellence and diversity of skills, contribute significantly to the leadership of the United States in the world. These dedicated men and women are a valuable national resource, serving in the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches at all levels of government, and dealing with nearly every aspect of national life.
Government employees provide such a broad range of services that few citizens remain unaffected by their work. They defend our Nation, enforce the laws, help protect the environment, maintain vital transportation systems, work to prevent the entry and abuse of illegal drugs, administer the Social Security system, conduct health research, help parents teach their children, and perform countless other vital tasks for society. These public servants have also helped develop innovative technologies to show the way in the critical fields of defense, health care, agriculture, and industry.
In recognition of the indispensable contributions made by government employees, the Congress, by Senate Joint Resolution 242, has designated the period commencing May 2, 1988, and ending May 8, 1988, as "Public Service Recognition Week" and has authorized and requested the President to issue a proclamation calling for observance of this week.
Now, Therefore, I, Ronald Reagan, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim the week of May 2, 1988, through May 8, 1988, as Public Service Recognition Week. I urge the people of the United States and all levels of government to participate in appropriate ceremonies to recognize the vital role of government employees.
In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this fifth day of May, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and eightyeight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and twelfth.

# Proclamation 5817

Delivered on 9 May 1988.
By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation
This year we again observe a period of special recognition for the place of fishing, both commercial and recreational, in American life. The lore of fishing is, of course, part of American tradition, from Huck Finn to Ernest Hemingway's Nick Adams. Today fishing continues to provide enjoyment for some 60 million American sport fishermen and women and to enhance our economy in many ways.
Our natural resources offer us some of the world's most bountiful fishing. Commercial fishing supplies us with a tremendous amount of food and other products, and recreational fishing contributes some $25 billion to our economy each year and employs some 600,000 people. Fishermen know firsthand the joys of fishing-it is an ideal family activity, for instance-and realize the need for careful stewardship of our sport and commercial fishery resources. The private sector works closely with government at the Federal, State, and local levels to fund fishery conservation restoration projects throughout the States and Territories.
Fishing's countless additions to our economy, our way of life, and our attitude toward our natural resources are all excellent reasons for the American people to celebrate National Fishing Week in a spirit of appreciation for the hardworking members of the commercial and recreational fishing industries and of the place of fishing in our national history and heritage.
The Congress, by Senate Joint Resolution 190, has designated the week of June 6 through June 12, 1988, as "National Fishing Week" and authorized and requested the President to issue a proclamation in its observance.
Now, Therefore, I, Ronald Reagan, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim the week of June 6 through June 12, 1988, as National Fishing Week. I call upon the people of the United States and government officials to observe this week with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities.
In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this ninth day of May, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and eightyeight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and twelfth.
