United States Supreme Court
83 U.S. 166
Hanrick v. Barton
ERROR to the Circuit Court for the Western District of Texas.
Edward Hanrick, a citizen of Alabama, in December, 1860, brought two actions of trespass to try title, in the nature of actions of ejectment, in the District Court of the United States for the Western District of Texas, for the recovery of eleven leagues of land in Falls County, in that State, alleged to have been granted by the proper officers of the State of Coahuila and Texas to one Atanacio de la Serda, and claimed by the plaintiff as owner in fee. The original plaintiff having died, the present plaintiff was admitted to prosecute the action as his administrator and only heir.
The defendants pleaded:
1st. The general issue;
2d. Title under one Thomas J. Chambers; and
3d. The statutes of limitation of three and ten years.
A jury being waived, the two causes were consolidated and tried by the court as one cause, in July, 1870, and the court found and decided that the plaintiff had failed to make out legal title to the land in controversy in Edward Hanrick, and gave judgment for the defendants, without passing upon the issues raised on the statutes of limitation. The case was brought here by the plaintiff upon certain bills of exception taken during the trial of the cause, showing rulings of the court adverse to the plaintiff, which were material to the result, and which, he alleged, were erroneous.
Mr. Conway Robinson, with whom was Mr. W. G. Hale, for the plaintiff in error; Mr. G. F. More, contra.
Mr. Justice BRADLEY stated the case in its different parts, as it arose on the exceptions, in their order, and delivered the opinion of the court.

# Hanrick v. Neely

United States Supreme Court
77 U.S. 364
Hanrick v. Neely
In error to the Circuit Court for the Western District of Texas.
This was an action of trespass, according to the local practice of Texas, to try the title to several leagues of land, in Falls County, in that State.
On the trial of the case before a jury the plaintiff proved title in one Pedro Zarsa to the lands in controversy, and gave in evidence a letter of attorney, executed in 1831, from Zarsa to McKinney, authorizing him to sell the lands or to substitute another person in his stead for that purpose. McKinney did not execute the power conferred on him, but, in 1833, delegated it to one Williamson by a letter of substitution, which was also received by the court in evidence. In further derivation of title the plaintiff offered in evidence a deed of the property made in the name of Zarsa, in 1851, by Williamson, under the substituted power, to Hanrick, the plaintiff.
It appeared, from the evidence, that Williamson, on behalf of Zarsa, had contracted to sell the several tracts of land to Hanrick, and that the sale was not completed, owing to differences concerning it, which had arisen between the parties. These differences produced litigation, in the District Court of the United States for the Eastern District of Texas, which resulted in the court decreeing that Williamson, on behalf of his principal, should convey to Hanrick.
This deed, offered as above stated, by the plaintiff, was rejected by the court below on the ground that as it was made and delivered in pursuance of a decree of the District Court, the decree was necessary to support the deed, and without proof of it (which was not furnished) the deed could not be read in evidence to the jury. The court also apparently based its rejection of the deed on the ground that it was delivered by the clerk to Hanrick in obedience to the decree of the court, and that therefore proof of the decree was necessary to support the delivery. There was other evidence offered, rejected, and exceptions taken, but the only point in the case which the court deemed it necessary to notice related to the ruling of the court, excepted to at the time, excluding this deed from the consideration of the jury. The main question was whether the deed was good without the decree?
Mr. W. G. Hale, for the plaintiff in error. No opposing counsel.
Mr. Justice DAVIS delivered the opinion of the court.

# Fugitive Poetry. 1600–1878/The Doctor and his Patient

The Doctor and his Patient.
"Slept you well?" "Very well." "My draught did good." "It did no harm; for yonder it hath stood."
# Fugitive Poetry. 1600–1878/The Dying Boy

The Dying Boy.
I knew a boy, whose infant feet had trod Upon the blossoms of some seven springs, And when the eighth came round, and called him out To gambol in the sun, he turned away, And sought his chamber, to lie down and die!
'Twas night—he summoned his accustomed friends, And on this wise bestowed his last bequest:—
"Mother! I'm dying now;— There is deep suffocation in my breast, As if some heavy hand my bosom pressed; And on my brow
"I feel the cold sweat stand; My lips grow dry and tremulous, and my breath Comes feebly up. Oh! tell me, is this death P Mother! your hand—
"Here—lay it on my wrist, And place the other thus, beneath my head, And say, sweet mother!—say, when I am dead, Shall I be missed?
"Never beside your knee Shall I kneel down again at night to pray, Nor with the morning wake, and sing the lay You taught to me!
"Oh, at the time of prayer, When you look round and see a vacant seat, You will not wait then for my coming feet— You'll miss me there!"—
"Father! I'm going home! To the good home you speak of, that blest land Where it is one bright summer always, and Storms do not come.
"I must be happy then: From pain and death you say I shall be free— That sickness never enters there, and we Shall meet again!"—
"Brother! the little spot I used to call my garden, where long hours We've stayed to watch the budding things and flowers Forget it not!
"Plant there some box or pine— Something that lives in winter, and will be A verdant offering to my memory, And call it mine!"—
"Sister! my young rose-tree— That all the spring has been my pleasant care, Just putting forth its leaves so green and fair, I give it thee.
"And when its roses bloom, I shall be gone away—my short life done! But will you not bestow a single one Upon my tomb?"
"Now, mother, sing the tune You sang last night—I'm weary and must sleep! Who was it called my name?—Nay, do not weep, You'll all come soon!"
Morning spread over earth her rosy wings— And that meek sufferer, cold and ivory pale, Lay on his couch asleep! The gentle air Came through the open window, freighted with The savoury odours of the early spring— He breathed it not! The laugh of passers-by Jarred like a discord in some mournful tune, But marred not his slumbers—He was dead!
# Fugitive Poetry. 1600–1878/The Empty "Gun"

The Empty "Gun."
As Dick and Tom in fierce dispute engage, And face to face the noisy contest wage, "Don't cock your chin at me," Dick smartly cries; "Fear not, his head's not charged," a friend replies.
# Fugitive Poetry. 1600–1878/The Death of the Dromedary Driver

The Death of The Dromedary Driver.
In vast and boundless solitude he stands, Around him, Heaven and the Desert meet; It is a naked universe of sands That mocks his gaze, and burns beneath his feet. Stillness,—deep stillness reigns,—and he, alone, Stands where drear solitude has reared her throne. Look on the ground, behold the moistless bed, Where lies his faithful Dromedary dead; Mark his despairing look, as his wild eye Stretches its aching sight, as if, alas, to try To pierce between the desert and the sky. See him now turn his agonised gaze Upon the dead companion of his way; And, grasping the fallen carcass, strive to raise Again to life, the cumbrous weight of clay— Quick thought, remembrances, hopes deep and strong, The Arab maid that wept a fond adieu, And wished and prayed he might not tarry long, And said she loved him, and she would be true; And home and all the scenes of early days, Come with a rushing sickness o'er his soul,— For he sees life fast shrinking to its goal,— He casts around a last despairing gaze O'er the wide wilderness of burning sand, And strikes his forehead with his clenched hand; And now he hurries on with rapid stride, As if, vain hope, to pass the boundless sands, And reach some clime where gentle waters glide Through smiling valleys and green shady lands.— But still the desert rises on his view, And still the deep sand sinks beneath his tread,— Fainting, he stops exhausted—but anew Onward in frenzy runs—his dizzy head Turns round, at last—his tottering knees give way, He falls,—and dying lies, the fell hyena's prey.
# Fugitive Poetry. 1600–1878/The Fairies' Song

The Fairies' Song.
We dance on hills above the wind, And leave our footsteps there behind, Which shall to after-ages last, When all our dancing days are past.
Sometimes we dance upon the shore, To whistling winds and seas that roar; Then we make the wind to blow, And set the seas a-dancing too.
The thunder's noise is our delight, And lightnings make us day by night; And in the air we dance on high To the loud music of the sky.
About the moon we make a ring, And falling stars we wanton fling, Like squibs and rockets, for a toy; While what frights others is our joy.
But when we'd hunt away our cares, We boldly mount the galloping spheres; And riding so from east to west, We chase each nimble zodiac beast.
Thus giddy grown, we make our beds, With thick black clouds to rest our heads, And flood the earth with our dark showers, That did but sprinkle these our bowers.
Thus having done with orbs and sky, Those mighty spaces vast and high, Then down we come and take the shapes Sometimes of cats, sometimes of apes.
Next turned to mites in cheese, forsooth, We get into some hollow tooth; Wherein, as in a Christmas hall, We frisk and dance, the devil and all.
Then we change our wily features Into yet far smaller creatures, And dance in joints of gouty toes, To painful tunes of groans and woes.
# Fugitive Poetry. 1600–1878/The Dying Soldier

The Dying Soldier.
The tumult of battle had ceased—high in air The standard of Britain triumphantly waved; And the remnant of foes had all fled in despair, Whom night, intervening, from slaughter had saved:
When a veteran was seen, by the light of his lamp, Slow pacing the bounds of the carcass-strewn plain; Not base his intent,—for he quitted his camp To comfort the dying,—not plunder the slain.
Though dauntless in war, at a story of woe Down his age-furrowed cheeks the tears often ran; Alike proud to conquer or spare a brave foe, He fought like a hero!—"but felt like a man!"
As he counted the slain,—"Ah, conquest!" he cried, "Thou art glorious indeed, but how dearly thou'rt won! "Too dearly, alas!" a voice faintly replied— It thrilled through his heart, 'twas the voice of his son!
He listened aghast!—all was silent again; He searched by the beams which his lamp feebly shed, And found his brave son amid hundreds of slain, The corse of a comrade supporting his head!
"My Henry!"—the sorrowful parent exclaimed, "Has fate rudely withered thy laurels so soon?" The youth ope'd his eyes as he heard himself named, And awoke for awhile from his death-boding swoon.
He gazed on his father, who knelt by his side, And seizing his hand, pressed it close to his heart; "Thank heaven, thou art here, my dear father!" he cried; "For soon! ah, too soon, we for ever must part!
"Though death early calls me from all that I love! From glory, from thee, yet perhaps 'twill be given To meet thee again in yon regions above!" His eyes beamed with hope as he fixed them on heaven.
"Then let not thy bosom with vain sorrow swell; Ah! check, ere it rises, the heart-rending sigh! I fought for my king!—for my country!—I fell In defence of their rights: and I glory to die!"
# Fugitive Poetry. 1600–1878/The Family Altar

THE FAMILY ALTAR.
The rich are poor or vainly stored Without the Lord. O, give us, Lord, Thy grace to see Our debt to Thee! When we are tempted, be Thou near To guide and cheer; Yea, make our duty our delight By day and night. Dear ones that wont to bend the knee, Have gone to Thee, And left to us an empty chair, And grief to bear. Friends come and go, they must depart; But still Thou art; And as Thou art their Lord the same, Our grief we tame, And hear Thee in the wind that waves Their grass-green grave's. Proclaim the Resurrection life The end of strife; And as the vict'ry Thou hast won Thy will be done! While in this wilderness below, Before we go, To guide, to comfort, and defend, Thou heavenly Friend! And when the awful shore is passed And safe at last, We shall, within the happy place, Declare Thy grace. Then, then the song through heaven shall ring None else can sing; While angels bending to the ground Drink in the sound. O, hallowed be Thy Name on earth Round every hearth! Though Thou art hidden in the skies We're in Thine eyes; Thy "ever plenty-dropping hand" Makes fat the land; And that our prayers ascend to Thee, And answered be, Triumphed hast Thou o'er death and hell And rent the veil; And made us priests and heirs to God All by Thy blood.
# Fugitive Poetry. 1600–1878/The Distinction

The Distinction.
At a public school, by chance there were two lads Of the same name, but boasting different dads. One's father kept a tavern, famed for cheer, The other's was 'ycleped an auctioneer: Mistakes to end, their schoolfellows so knowing, Called the one, quaintly, coming, t'other going.

# Having given great offence by writing in Prose

[Blake's apology for his Catalogue]
Having given great offence by writing in Prose,
I'll write in Verse as soft as Bartolloze.
Some blush at what others can see no crime in,
But nobody sees any harm in Rhyming.
Dryden, in Rhyme, cries "Milton only plann'd."
Every Fool shook his bells throughout the land.
Tom Cooke cut Hogarth down with his clean graving.
Thousands of Connoisseurs with joy ran raving. Thus, Hayley on his Toilette seeing the sope,
Cries, "Homer is very much improv'd by Pope."
Some say I've given great Provision to my foes,
And that now I lead my false friends by the nose.
Flaxman and Stothard, smelling a sweet savour
Cry, "Blakified drawing spoils painter and Engraver,"
While I, looking up to my Umbrella,
Resolv'd to be a very contrary fellow,
Cry, looking quite from Skumference to Center,
"No one can finish so high as the original Inventor."
Thus poor Schiavonetti died of the Cromek
A thing that's tied around the Examiner's neck.
This is my sweet apology to my friends,
That I may put them in mind of their latter Ends.

# Haver v. Yaker/Opinion of the Court

* Court Documents

* Opinion of the Court
United States Supreme Court
76 U.S. 32
Haver v. Yaker
It is undoubtedly true, as a principle of international law, that, as respects the rights of either government under it, a treaty is considered as concluded and binding from the date of its signature. In this regard the exchange of ratifications has a retroactive effect, confirming the treaty from its date. But a different rule prevails where the treaty operates on individual rights. The principle of relation does not apply to rights of this character, which were vested before the treaty was ratified. In so far as it affects them, it is not considered as concluded until there is an exchange of ratifications, and this we understand to have been decided by this court, in Arredondo's case, reported in 6th Peters. The reason of the rule is apparent. In this country, a treaty is something more than a contract, for the Federal Constitution declares it to be the law of the land. If so, before it can become a law, the Senate, in whom rests the authority to ratify it, must agree to it. But the Senate are not required to adopt or reject it as a whole, but may modify or amend it, as was done with the treaty under consideration. As the individual citizen, on whose rights of property it operates, has no means of knowing anything of it while before the Senate, it would be wrong in principle to hold him bound by it, as the law of the land, until it was ratified and proclaimed. And to construe the law, so as to make the ratification of the treaty relate back to its signing, thereby divesting a title already vested, would be manifestly unjust, and cannot be sanctioned.
These views dispose of this case, and we are not required to determine whether this treaty, if it had become a law at an earlier date, would have secured the plaintiffs in error the interest which they claim in the real estate left by Yaker at his death.
JUDGMENT AFFIRMED.
