United States Supreme Court
187 U.S. 61
Baker v. Baldwin
Argued: October 14, 1902. --- Decided: November 3, 1902
This was a bill filed by Stephen Baldwin in the circuit court for the county of Oakland, Michigan, against Fred A. Baker, to compel the release of a mortgage given to secure payment of a promissory note for $330, dated January 12, 1894, and payable in three years thereafter.
Baldwin had purchased the land subject to the mortgage, which had been assigned to Baker, and tendered the amount due thereon in silver dollars coined after 1878. This tender Baker declined to accept on the ground that the legal tender provisions of the act of Congress of February 28, 1878, entitled 'An Act to Authorize the Coinage of the Standard Silver Dollar, and to Restore its Legal Tender Character' (20 Stat. at L. 25, chap. 20), were unconstitutional, and refused to discharge the mortgage as demanded by Baldwin.
The circuit court for Oakland county entered a decree in accordance with the prayer of the bill, and Baker carried the cause by appeal to the supreme court of Michigan, which affirmed the decree. Baldwin v. Baker, 121 Mich. 259, 80 N. W. 36. This writ of error was then allowed.
The supreme court of Michigan said: 'The sole question presented is whether the act in question, making the silver dollar of 412.5 grains troy of standard silver a full legal tender for all debts and dues, public and private, is constitutional;' and held that it was. That decision is assigned for error, but it was not a decision against the validity of the statute, and, on the contrary, sustained its validity.
As our jurisdiction over the judgments and decrees of state courts in suits in which the validity of statutes of the United States is drawn in question can only be exercised, under § 709 of the Revised Statutes, when the decision is against their validity, the writ of error cannot be maintained. Missouri v. Andriano, 138 U.S. 496, 34 L. ed. 1012, 11 Sup. Ct. Rep. 385; Rae v. Homestead Loan & Guaranty Co. 176 U.S. 121, 44 L. ed. 398, 20 Sup. Ct. Rep. 341.
Writ of error dismissed.

United States Supreme Court
79 U.S. 681
Bronson's Executor v. Chappell
APPEAL from the Circuit Court for the District of Wisconsin.
Bronson, of New York, being owner as executor of lands in Wisconsin, sold a tract to E. and J. Chappell, residing near Galena, in that State, the sale being negotiated by one W. C. Bostwick, of the last-named place. A portion of the purchase-money was secured by mortgage; and as it became due it was paid by the Chappells to Bostwick, under the assumption by them that Bostwick, who had advertised himself during a term of twelve or fourteen years as the agent of Bronson, was the duly constituted agent of Bronson to receive it. Bostwick having failed, and appropriated the money to his own use, Bronson now filed a bill against the Chappells in the court below to foreclose the mortgage. The defendants set up the payments to Bostwick; and the question involv d was thus a pure question of agency. The defendants relied upon a correspondence between Bronson and Bostwick, and particularly, as sufficient of itself, on a letter from the latter to the former, dated 9th February, 1860, and a reply to it of the 15th. These two letters are quoted and the general character of the others, with the leading facts of the case, stated in different parts of the opinion. The court below dismissed the bill, and Bronson took the appeal.
Mr. J. J. Townsend, for the appellant; Messrs. Cothren and Laken, contra.
Mr. Justice SWAYNE delivered the opinion of the court.

# Bohemian Poems, Ancient and Modern/Patriotism Misunderstood

PATRIOTISM MISUNDERSTOOD.
O MY country, let thy son Mourn his mother’s breast upon! Wrongful brethren cause my woe; Crying, there’s no warmth to me In the inmost heart for thee— O my country, thou dost know!
If, when night is calm and still, Secret tears mine eyes o’erfill, If they on thy bosom flow; If my lot I’d cast with thee, Sharing joy and woe with thee, O my country, thou dost know!
What the youth in fancy roving, What the man in transport loving, Swore and swears again to do,— Mother, if to thee I’d bring Life and all in offering— O my country, thou dost know!
If I from my word depart, If the gushings of my heart For another ever flow; If, when life is leaving me, Thou my last last cry wilt be, O my country, thou dost know.
# Bohemian Poems, Ancient and Modern/Lines written on the Banks of the Rhine

LINES
WRITTEN ON THE BANKS OF THE RHINE.
THE air of heav’n is soft and sweet, That round my temples plays. I’ll stop awhile my wand’ring feet, On sky and stream to gaze.
But ah! though all around is fair, And bright and clear the day, Clouds, viewless clouds, are in the air, And dim the heav’nly ray.
O mists of Error, clouds of Sin, Why dim ye thus the soul? I fain would pierce the veil within, But ye around me roll.
Thou veil, that hid'st the inner might That worketh all in all, Why not disclose that Presence bright To them that long and call?
In mercy art thou closely drawn, Lest too much light should kill; We must await the golden dawn, That sleeps on Zion’s hill.
The wish is good, the flesh is weak, The spirit sick within,— Confess, poor Heart, with sorrow meek Thy bondage and thy sin:
That thou art all unfit to see, What dwelleth there on high; That such a sight is not for thee, To gaze upon it nigh.
Thou seest God’s tokens ev’ry where, Thou hear’st his call within, Be patient, till his heav’nly care Free thee from guilt and sin.
Then shalt thou gaze with eye serene, And praise with voicing clear, And perfect Love with cloudless mien Shall cast out Doubt and Fear.
# Bohemian Poems, Ancient and Modern/My Songs

MY SONGS.
FRUIT of a Slavonic heart, Into the wide world depart, Ye daughters of my soul! Go, belovèd children, go! Flowers of feeling bloom for you, Your fatherland is full!
Seek the grove and seek the home, Cottage mean, and stately dome, And meekest preludes play; If they look with scorn upon you, If the gate they fasten on you, Begin beneath your lay.
Pass no door as on you wend, Some one sure his ear will lend, In your own land are ye; Age and childhood list your strains, Youths, when love the bosom pains, Maids, when the sweet hours be.
Should Bohemian friends demand, Who into your fatherland Hath sent you, say, that he, Who nor pearls nor sceptres prizes, Who for feeling gold despises, Must a Bohemian be.
# Bohemian Poems, Ancient and Modern/Remembrance

REMEMBRANCE.
THERE is a thought to Mem’ry dear, That dwells my heart within; There is no other mem’ry there So pure and free from sin.
Yet hath it sorrows of its own, That pure and precious thought, That oft, when I have mus’d alone, Tears to mine eyes have brought.
It calls an image of the Past, A vision fair and bright, So beautiful it could not last Before the earthly sight.
I knew a maid in life’s first spring, A sweeter none could know, Her locks were like the raven’s wing, Her brow was like the snow.
And ever, when she played or sang, Sweet music filled the place, She had a merry laugh that rang, A bright and sunny face.
My pulse was calm, my heart was still, At clasping of our hands, Not such the eager wayward thrill, That earthly love demands.
Perchance a different feeling sways The fibres of the heart Towards those, who from the wistful gaze Are fated soon to part.
And yet in sooth I lov’d her well, And she indeed was dear, Though scarce I knew the mighty spell That bound my soul to her.
But she is gone, and lowly laid Under the springing grass— O ne’er the mem’ry of the maid Shall from my bosom pass!
But oft I’ll think upon her still, And call her back in thought, And strive to make her mem’ry fill, The void her loss has wrought.
# Bohemian Poems, Ancient and Modern/Source of Songs

SOURCE OF SONGS.
WONDER not I sing, sweet Maiden! Love my soul doth rive, Ev’ry glance, thine eye that leaveth, Me a song doth give.
When the song itself developes From my inmost heart, Doth, methinks, an angel whispers From his hymns impart.
Words thus found me, I Bohemia’s Harp melodious try, And of love it sweetly soundeth, Hope and constancy.
There’s as many songs as glances, Thou their source dost know; Give me then a thousand glances! Maiden, say not No!
# Bohemian Poems, Ancient and Modern/Love

LOVE.
THE breeze lightly waveth The lily so fair, Amidst the sweet petals The bee batheth there; He will not, he will not, Away further flit— What hold those sweet petals For food ever fit?
The youth fond embracing Enfoldeth his prize, Eye and soul ever bathing Themselves in her eyes; He will not, he will not, Depart further on,— O tell me what honey Her lips dwells upon?
O seek but the kisses Of love in your home; In heav’n there’s abundance Of that sweet honeycomb; There ever o’erfloweth The beaker of love, With drops ever streaming Towards earth from above.
# Bohemian Poems, Ancient and Modern/Mary

MARY.
GLORY’S wreath of endlessness Tempts not to the poet’s strife, ’Tis my heart’s deep happiness Wakes itself in song to life.
If these tones win commendation, If they nought of censure know, What care I? if approbation From a single hand doth flow.
Cause of this sweet narrowness, Thee to sing shall be my bliss; Be, O gentle Mary mine, Thou my muse and grace divine!
# Bohemian Poems, Ancient and Modern/Lover's Feelings

LOVER’S FEELINGS.
FAIN I’d be thy wishes’ shadow! In thy hands a ball I’d be! Thou can’st give me life or take it, And thy word is heaven’s key.
For commands thy bondman waiting Nothing but thine eyes doth know, And thy ev’ry movement scares him— What would then thine anger do?

Buchanan v. Warley, 245 U.S. 60 (1917) was a unanimous United States Supreme Court decision addressing racial segregation in residential areas. The Court held that a Louisville, Kentucky, ordinance requiring residential segregation based on race violated the Fourteenth Amendment. Unlike prior state court rulings that had overturned racial zoning ordinances on takings clause grounds due to those ordinances' failures to grandfather land owned prior to enactment, the Court in Buchanan ruled that the motive for the Louisville ordinance, race, was an insufficient purpose to make the law constitutional.
