LIEBER, lē'bėr, Franz, American publicist: b. Berlin, Germany, 18 March 1800; d. New York, 2 Oct. 1872. He volunteered as a soldier at 15 and was in the battles of Ligny, Waterloo and Namur. He served also in the Greek war of independence, recording his experiences in ‘Journal in Greece’ (1823). He settled in the United States in 1827 and during the next five years was occupied with the compilation of an ‘Encyclopædia Americana’ (13 vols.). While professor of history and political economy in South Carolina College (1835-56), he wrote the three great works by which he is best known, ‘Manual of Political Ethics’ (1838); ‘Legal and Political Hermeneutics or the Principles of Interpretation and Construction in Law and Politics’ (1839); ‘Civil Liberty and Self Government’ (1853). In 1857 he became professor of history in Columbia and later of political science in the Columbia Law School. During the Civil War period he was a firm supporter of the Federal government and was frequently consulted by the Secretary of War. His war code, officially designated as ‘Instructions for the Government of the Armies of the United States in the Field’ (1863), made him still more widely known. He was a member of the French Institute and of many learned societies at home and abroad. Consult ‘Lives’ by Perry (1882); Harley (1899).

Edition of 1920. See also Wilhelm Liebknecht on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
LIEBKNECHT, Wilhelm, German Socialist: b. Giessen, 29 March 1826; d. Berlin, 6 Aug. 1890. He studied at the University of Giessen and later at Marburg and Berlin. He was early interested in the writings of St. Simon, and in 1848 went to Paris to take part in the revolution there; then joined in the unsuccessful attempt to make Germany a republic, and was imprisoned nine months without trial. When released he went to Switzerland, where he tried to unite the trade unions on a socialistic basis, was again arrested, handed over to the French authorities and banished to England. While there he became an intimate friend of Marx and Engels (qq.v.) and was a member of the Communist League. In 1862 he returned to Germany, continued his socialistic agitation and in 1865 was banished from Prussia. He went to Leipzig, where he met Bebel (q.v.), was active in trade union organization and was one of the founders of the Saxony Volkspartei soon absorbed by the German Social Democratic party (1868), of which he was from the first a leading member. In 1867 he was candidate for the North German Parliament, but was under arrest and lost the election; he was, however, elected later. In 1868 he was made editor of the Demokratisches Wochenblatt, the next year enlarged and published under the name of Volkstaat. In 1870 he denounced the Franco-Prussian War, for which he was imprisoned three months, and later so bitterly attacked Bismarck that he was again imprisoned. In 1874 he was elected to the Reichstag of which he was a member almost constantly till his death. He was one of the strongest leaders of his party in that body, and very popular and highly respected among German workingmen. In 1890 the name of the Volkstaat was changed to Vorwärts, and Liebknecht was retained as editor. He wrote ‘Die Grund und Bodenfrage’ (1874), a discussion of the land question from the Socialist standpoint; ‘Ein Blick in die neue Welt’ (1887), an account of his visit to the United States; ‘Robert Blum und seine Zeit’ (1890); ‘Robert Owen' (1892), and ‘Socialism, what it is and what it seeks to accomplish’ (translated and published in the United States). Consult Aveling, ‘Wilhelm Liebknecht and the Social Democratic Movement’ (1896).

On the formation of the Munro Government in Nov. 1890, Mr. Davies accepted the position of Minister of Justice, and was sworn of the Executive Council. Twelve months later he resigned, owing to inability to support the one man one vote policy of the Cabinet. He, however, resumed office when the measure was dropped, but finally retired in Feb. 1892, when the Ministry was reconstructed under Mr. Shiels.

# The Dictionary of Australasian Biography/Davy, Edward

Layout 2
​Davy, Edward, son of Thomas Davy, a surgeon practising at Ottery St. Mary, Devonshire, and Elizabeth (Boutflower) his wife, was born at Ottery on June 16th, 1806, and was brought up to the medical profession, becoming M.R.C.S. in 1829. Having been deceived into buying a chemist's business in the Strand, London, under the idea that he was purchasing a medical practice, he made the best of his disappointment, and traded as an operative chemist under the style of "Davy & Co.," dealing mostly in scientific apparatus of his own invention, such as "Davy's blowpipe" and "improved mercurial trough." He also patented "Davy's diamond cement," for mending glass and china. In 1836 he published "An Experimental Guide to Chemistry". He also commenced experiments in electric telegraphy, which entitle him to be regarded as one of the pioneers of the science, inventing the "relay," or, as he called it, the "electric renewer." In 1836 he issued "Outline of a New Plan of Telegraphic Communication." The next year he laid down a mile of copper wire around the inner circle of Regent's Park, by means of which many successful results were developed. In May of this year he opposed the grant of a patent to his rivals, Cooke and Wheatstone, but failed in the attempt. In 1837, too, a working model of his improved apparatus was shown at the Belgrave Institution and at Exeter Hall, where his invention of the needle telegraph excited much attention. In 1838, despite much opposition, he succeeded in patenting his "electro-chemical recording telegraph." Fortune and fame seemed now to await him, but he chose this very juncture to go to Australia as medical superintendent of an emigrant ship, sailing on April 15th, 1839. During his absence his schemes collapsed, and his invention being bought up by the old Electric Telegraph Company, was quietly allowed to drop. In Australia Mr. Davy started farming and then turned to journalism, contributing to the Melbourne Argus from 1843 to 1845, and was then engaged as editor of the Adelaide Examiner. From 1848 to 1851 he managed some smelting works at Yatala, in South Australia. He took charge of the Government Assay Office in Adelaide in 1852, and was then tempted away to Melbourne to take charge of a similar establishment, where he was paid £1,500 a year. The latter engagement only lasted from July 1853 to Dec. 1854, when the post was abolished in a fit of Government economy. He again tried farming, but could not make it pay. He then reverted to his original calling, and practised as a surgeon at Malmesbury, in Victoria. At the close of his career the Society of Telegraph Engineers and Electricians made him an honorary member (Nov. 1884). He died on Jan. 27th, 1885, at Malmesbury. Justice was done to him in his lifetime by Mr. Fahie; and since his death his nephew, H. Davy, M.D., has published a memoir of him.

# The Golden Violet with its Tales of Romance and Chivalry and Other Poems/The First Day

THE FIRST DAY.
'T is May again, another May, Looking as if it meant to stay; So many are its thousand flowers, So glorious are its sunny hours, So green its earth, so blue its sky, As made for hope's eternity.    By night with starlike tapers gleaming, And music like an odour streaming; By day with portals open flung, While bugle note and trumpet rung; Rose Isaure's towers: and gather'd there, Again, the gifted, young and fair Have at Clemenza’s summons met, In contest for the Violet.
Her heralds had been to distant lands To call together the joyeuse bands, And they had hasten'd. England had sent Her harp across the blue element; The Spaniard had come from the land of romance; And the flower of her minstrels had gather'd in France, From far and from near; it was strange to see The bards of Erin and Italy Mingle together with those that came From the highland home they so loved to name.    Hark to the sound of yon silver horn, And the sweep of the harp to the distance borne; ‘T is the hour of meeting, and welcome now To the gifted hand and the laurel'd brow.
Young knight, think not of hawk or hound; Fair maiden, fling not thy smiles around; Warrior, regard not the sword at thy side; Baron, relax thou thy brow of pride; Let worldly coldness and care depart, And yield to the spell of the minstrel's art.    ‘T was a spacious hall, and around it rose Carved pillars as white as the snows; Between, the purple tapestry swept, Where, work'd in myriad shades, were kept Memories of many an ancient tale, And of many a blooming cheek now pale. The dome above like a glory shone, Or a cloud which the sunset lingers upon, While the tinted pane seem'd the bright resort, Where Iris' self held her minstrel court;
And beautiful was the coloured fall Of the floating hues round the stately hall.    In groups around mix'd the gay throng, Knight, noble, lady, child of song. At one end was upraised a throne, On which the countess sat alone; Not with droop'd eye and bow'd-down head, And simple white veil round her spread, As lean'd she o'er the lonely wave, Dreaming of the dead minstrel's grave; But purple robe and golden band Bespoke the ladye of the land; Rich gems upon her arm were placed, And lit the zone around her waist; But none were in her braided hair, One only Violet was there,
The golden flower, which won all eyes, Destined to be the minstrel prize.

Revelation through Joseph Smith, Orange, Ohio, October 25, 1831. History of the Church 1:219-21.
$^1$ Behold, thus saith the Lord unto my servant William E. McLellinBlessed are you, inasmuch as you have turned away from your iniquities, and have received my truths, saith the Lord your Redeemer, the Savior of the world, even of as many as believe on my name.
$^2$ Verily I say unto you, blessed are you for receiving mine everlasting covenant, even the fulness of my gospel, sent forth unto the children of men, that they might have life and be made partakers of the glories which are to be revealed in the last days, as it was written by the prophets and apostles in days of old.
$^3$ Verily I say unto you, my servant William, that you are clean, but not all; repent, therefore, of those things which are not pleasing in my sight, saith the Lord, for the Lord will show them unto you.
$^4$ And now, verily, I, the Lord, will show unto you what I will concerning you, or what is my will concerning you.
$^5$ Behold, verily I say unto you, that it is my will that you should proclaim my gospel from land to land, and from city to city, yea, in those regions round about where it has not been proclaimed.
$^6$ Tarry not many days in this place; go not up unto the land of Zion as yet; but inasmuch as you can send, send; otherwise, think not of thy property.
$^7$ Go unto the eastern lands, bear testimony in every place, unto every people and in their synagogues, reasoning with the people.
$^8$ Let my servant Samuel H. Smith go with you, and forsake him not, and give him thine instructions; and he that is faithful shall be made strong in every place; and I, the Lord, will go with you.
$^9$ Lay your hands upon the sick, and they shall recover. Return not till I, the Lord, shall send you. Be patient in affliction. Ask, and ye shall receive; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
$^{10}$ Seek not to be cumbered. Forsake all unrighteousness. Commit not adulterya temptation with which thou hast been troubled.
$^{11}$ Keep these sayings, for they are true and faithful; and thou shalt magnify thine office, and push many people to Zion with songs of everlasting joy upon their heads.
$^{12}$ Continue in these things even unto the end, and you shall have a crown of eternal life at the right hand of my Father, who is full of grace and truth.
$^{13}$ Verily, thus saith the Lord your God, your Redeemer, even Jesus Christ. Amen.
