# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Burke, Edmund (statesman)

Edition of 1900.
​BURKE, Edmund, English statesman, b. in Dublin, 1 Jan., 1730; d. in Beaconsfield, England, 9 July, 1797. He was the son of a Dublin attorney, was graduated at Trinity college in 1748, studied law, and, going to London, wrote political articles for newspapers there. In 1755 he was offered a government place in America, and was anxious to take it, but was deterred by his father's opposition. He published in 1756 his “Vindication of Natural Society” and the essay on “The Sublime and Beautiful,” in 1757 “An Account of the European Settlements in America,” and in 1758-'9 established, with Dodsley, “The Annual Register.” In 1761-'5 he was the friend and adviser of William Gerard Hamilton, secretary to the lord-lieutenant of Ireland, and in 1765-'6 was secretary to the prime-minister, Rockingham, and entered parliament 14 Jan., 1766. He took an active part in the discussion of American questions, and proved himself an able and eloquent speaker. His thorough acquaintance with American affairs was rewarded, in November, 1771, by the appointment of agent for the colony of New York. On 19 April, 1774, he made a speech on American taxation, considered by many as the greatest effort of oratory ever heard in the house of commons. His speech of 22 March, 1775, recommending conciliatory measures toward the colonies, also excited general admiration. His earnestness in espousing the cause of the colonists displeased his constituents, and he defended his course in two able “Letters to Gentlemen of Bristol.” At the opening of the November session of parliament in 1781, Burke ridiculed the king's speech, which, in spite of Cornwallis's surrender, insisted on the rights of the crown in America. He compared the ministry to men who would shear a wolf, and in the next year the combined attacks of Fox and himself on the conduct of the war, forced North to retire. During Rockingham's brief administration in 1782, Burke was a privy councillor and paymaster of the forces, a place he also held under the coalition ministry in 1783. He took a prominent part in the affairs of India, and, in January, 1786, began the prosecution of Warren Hastings. His speech on the opening of Hastings's trial, 10 Feb., 1788, was worthy of the occasion and of his great reputation. Though the impeachment of Hastings was not carried, the herculean labors of Burke in behalf of India were not fruitless. In November, 1790, he published his great work in opposition to the French revolution, entitled “Reflections on the Revolution in France.” On 6 May, 1791, an open rupture took place between Burke and Fox, who accused him of abandoning the principles of his party. Burke vindicated himself in his “Appeal from the New to the Old Whigs.” In 1796 he wrote his “Letter to a Noble Lord,” one of the most successful and popular of all his productions. The best edition of his works is that edited by George Nichols (12 vols., Boston, 1865-'7).

Edition of 1900.
​BULKELEY, Peter, clergyman, b. in Odell, Bedfordshire, England, 31 Jan., 1583; d. in Concord, Mass., 9 March, 1659. He was educated at Cambridge, where he afterward became a fellow. Later he took orders, and succeeded to the living of his father in Odell, where he remained for twenty-one years, when he was removed by Archbishop Laud for non-conformity. In 1635 he sold his estates and came to this country with other settlers. He remained for some time at Cambridge, Mass., but pushed farther inland and founded Concord, where he lived until his death. Mr. Bulkeley was an excellent scholar. He wrote Latin verses, some of which have been preserved in Cotton Mather's “History of New England”; an elegy on the Rev. Thomas Hooker; and “The Gospel Covenant; or, the Covenant of Grace Opened” (London, 1646). He contributed a large part of his own valuable collection to establish the library of Harvard college.

Edition of 1900.
​BURGER, Louis, soldier, b. in Spire, Bavaria, 6 Feb., 1821; d. in New York city, 25 May, 1871. He was educated at the high school in Kaiserslautern, and then at the polytechnic school in Munich, where he devoted special attention to engineering and architecture during 1840-'4. Afterward he followed his profession and filled various posts in Bavaria and Würtemberg. Subsequent to the revolution in 1849 he came to the United States and established himself in New York as an architect. In 1854 he organized the engineer corps of the 5th regiment of the New York state national guards, and was elected captain. During the civil war he commanded his regiment in the short campaign in 1861, and again during the invasion of

Edition of 1900. Nine words are inserted from the 1891 edition.
​BURMEISTER, Karl Hermann Konrad, zoölogist, b. in Stralsund, Germany, 15 Jan., 1807; d. in Buenos Ayres, 1 May, 1891. He became professor of zoölogy at Halle in 1842; in 1848, during the revolutionary excitement, he was sent by the city of Halle as deputy to the national assembly, and subsequently by the town of Leibnitz to the first Prussian chamber. At the close of the session he travelled for two years in Brazil, and in 1861 was appointed director of the Museum of natural history at Buenos Ayres. He was also at the head of the academy of sciences, formed from the scientific faculty of the national university of Cordoba, Argentine Republic. Among his works are a “Treatise on Natural History” (Halle, 1830); “Manual of Entomology” (4 vols., 1832-4); “Natural History of the Calandra Species” (1837); “The History of Creation” (Leipsic, 1843); “Geological Pictures of the History of the Earth and its Inhabitants” (1851); and “The Animals of Brazil” (2 vols., 1854-'6). Dr. Burmeister has also published the “Anales del Museo Publico,” a scientific periodical which contained detailed descriptions of many new species, the originals of which are in the museum at Buenos Ayres. The huge edentates and other mammalia, which have rendered that museum, which was established by him, so famous, are described and pictured in this work.

# Biographia Hibernica/St. George Ash

ST. GEORGE ASH,
Once Vice-Chancellor of Dublin university, was a native of the county of Roscommon, and received his education in the university of Dublin, of which he was elected a fellow in 1679, and became provost of it in the room of Doctor Robert Huntington, who resigned on the 2nd September, 1692, being then in the thirty-fourth year of his age. Shortly after this he became vice-chancellor, but, prior to that advancement, was obliged to quit his country, from the tyrannous acts of King James II. He came to England, and engaged himself in the service of the Lord Paget, who was King William's embassador at the court of Vienna, and to whom he was both chaplain and secretary. In these stations he remained several years, nor did he meditate a return to his native country, until after the passing of the Acts of Settlement. He ​was promoted to the bishoprie of Cloyne, by letters patent, dated July 15, 1695; and was consecrated the same month, in Christ Church, Dublin, by Narcissus, Archbishop of Dublin, assisted by the Bishops of Meath, Waterford, and Lismore, and, at the same time, was called into the privy council. On the 1st of June, 1697, he was translated, by the King's letter, to the see of Clogher, and, during the period he held the bishopric thereof, expended near the sum of nine hundred pounds, in repairing and improving the episcopal houses and lands belonging to that see, which, upon due proof, was acknowledged and allowed him, on the 25th of July, 1700, by Michael, Archbishop of Armagh, his metropolitan, in pursuance of an Act of Parliament of King William, which gives a demand of two-thirds of the sum expended, against the next successor. From this see he was advanced to that of Derry, by letters patent, dated the 95th February, 1716, and died in Dublin, on the 27th February, 1717, and was buried in Christ Church, in that city. By his will, he bequeathed all his mathematical books to the college of Dublin, of which he had been successively fellow an provost. He was likewise a member of the Royal Society, in whose Transactions are several articles of his writing. He published, also, four Sermons, and two Mathematical Tracts, and several other minor productions.
It is recorded, on the authority of Mac Mahon, that, on the death of John Vesey, Archbishop of Tuam, in 1706, our prelate had the offer of being advanced to that see; but this he refused, it not being so profitable, although of more honour than the see of Clogher, to which he was translated.

RICHARD ARCHDEKIN,
As eminent Jesuit, was a native of the county of Kilkenny, and became a member of that society at Mechlin, in Brabant, in 1642, at the age of twenty-three. He taught divinity and philosophy successively at Louvain and Antwerp, and, at the latter place, became rector of the students of the highest class in 1676, and afterwards professor of divinity. He died there about 1690. Peter Talbot gives him the character of "a good father, but an incautious writer;" and the Abbé de la Berthier, in his parallel of the Doctrines of the Pagans and Jesuits, quarrels with a proposition advanced by him in his under-named Theologia Tripartita, viz. "That absolution is not to be deferred to 'habitual sinners,' till they are actually reformed;" to which he opposes that saying of Horace, Epist. ii. Quo semel est imbuta recens servabit odorem testa diu; and of Catullus, Epigr. lxxvii. Difficile est longum subito deponere amorem. And from thence humorously makes these two, and other pagan authors, anti-jesuits. He wrote, "Of Miracles, and the new Miracles done by the Relieks of St. Francis Xaviers, in the Jesuits' College, at Mechlin." Louvanii, 1667, 8vo. This piece is in English and Irish.
"Præcipuæ Controversiæ Fidei ad facilem Methodum redactæ; ac Resolutiones Theologicæ ad omnia Sacerdotis munia, præsertim in Missionibus, accommodatæ, cum apparatu ad Doctrinam sacram. Cui accessit summa Doctrinæ Christianæ selectis Exemplis elucidata." The first title is, "Theologia, Polemica, Practicæ, Sacra." Louvanii, 1671, 8vo.
​"Vitæ et Miraculorum S. Patricii, Hiberniæ Apostoli, Epitome, cum brevi Notitiâ Hiberniæ." Louvanii, 1671, 8vo. printed with the former; which he afterwards revised and enlarged, and published under the title of "Theologia Tripartita Universa, sive Resolutiones Polemicæ, Practicæ, Controversiarum et Questionum etiam recentissimarum, quæ in Scholâ et in Praxi per omnia usum præcipuum habent; Missionariis, et aliis Animarum Curatoribus, et Theologiæ Studiasis, solerter accommodatæ Editio quinta." Antwerpiæ, 1682, 3 vols. 8vo. If we may judge by the number of editions, this book carried a vast reputation abroad. I have seen the eleventh edition of it printed, Venice 1700, 4to. after the author's death, and, for what I know, there may be others since. At the time the eight edition was undertaken, there were sixteen thousand of them disposed of, and a great demand for more.
He also wrote and published, "The Lives of Peter Talbot, Archbishop of Dublin, and of Oliver Plunket, Primate of Ireland," which are printed in the eleventh edidion of his "Theologia Tripartita."
Sotvellus tells us, that he had a book ready for the press, entitled, "Theologia Apostolica."
# Biographia Hibernica/John Averill

JOHN AVERILL,
A pious and exemplary prelate, was born in the county of Antrim, in the year 1713, and received his education in Trinity College, Dublin, of which his nephew, Dr. Andrews, was afterwards provost. On the 9th of January, 1771, he was consecrated Dean of Limerick, in Christ Church, Dublin, by the Archbishop of Dublin; but lived not long to enjoy his elevation, as he died on the 14th of September following, at Innismore, in the county of Kerry, being then on his visitation. He was a divine whose worth exhibited itself more in works than words, for during the short period he was dean, he gave two hundred guineas to be lent in small sums to poor tradesmen; and likewise discovered strong proofs, that he would have expended the greater part of his income in benevolent actions. The primitive church was not possessed of a more worthy pillar than Bishop Averill, from whose precepts and examples every good consequence might rationally be expected. He was fraught with charity, meekness, and humanity; and laid the foundation for reviving many good institutions in the diocese. He had no ambition but in the service of God; and sought not to possess those luxuries of life which his income would readily have procured for him, but was contented with the bare conveniences of living, and devoted the major part of his affluence to the assistance of the distressed, and the relief of those “that have none to help them.”
His remains were interred with great solemnity on the ​18th of September, near the communion table, in St. Mary's Church; and the following inscription, on a brass plate, has been fixed over them:-
"Hic jacet rectè Rev. Johannes Averill, D.D. Episcopus Limericensis, obiit 14mo. Sept. 1771, Ætatis 58.
Cujus si in Deum pietatem, In regem fidem, In ecclesiam amorem, Si in equales liberalitatem, In omnes spectes benevolentiam, Vix ætas ulla tulit parem, Nulla superiorem!"
# Biographia Hibernica/Joseph Atkinson

JOSEPH ATKINSON
Was a man who fully merited the epithet "worthy;" and truly sorry are we to inform our readers, that, with almost every particular of his life, we are wholly unacquainted.
He was a native of Ireland, and was treasurer of the Ordnance, under the administration of the Earl of Moira. He was the intimate of Moore, Curran, and the rest of the galaxy of Irish genius; and was, himself, a poet of more than ordinary ability, as the following jeu d'esprit, addressed to his friend Moore, on the birth of his third daughter, will evince:—
But since Fate, the boon that you wish'd for, refuses, By granting three girls to your happy embraces, She but meant, while you wander'd abroad with the Muses, Your wife should be circled at home by the Graces!
He died in Dublin, at the age of 75, in October 1818, and was sincerely regretted by all who knew him; being admired by the young for his conviviality, and respected by the aged for his benevolence and numerous good qualities.
The following beautiful lines, from the pen of his intimate, Moore, are intended to be engraved on his sepulchre:—
All these were his—Oh! thou who read’st this stone, When for thyself, thy children, to the sky, Thou humbly prayest, ask this boon alone, That ye like him may live, like him may die.

1. Approach, ye faithful, come with exultation, Come ye, in Bethlehem behold the Lord: The Lord of angels born for our salvation.  O come, ye faithful, come with glad accord,  With adoration come before the Lord !
2. Sing Hallelujah, let the court of heaven Ring with the angel chorus — “ Praise the Lord; To God be glory in the highest given.”  O come, ye faithful, come with glad accord,  With adoration come before the Lord!
3. Therefore, O Jesus, unto Thee be glory, For Thou wert born this day, Incarnate Word ! Word of the Eternal Father, we adore Thee :  O come, ye faithful, come with glad accord,  With adoration come before the Lord !

# Appropriations request for Fiscal Year (FY) 2017

Memorandum published at Whitehouse.gov on March 16, 2017. Scan: File:Presidential Memorandum on Appropriations request for Fiscal Year (FY) 2017.pdf.
Administration of Donald J. Trump , 2017
March 16, 2017
By the President of the United States of America
A Memorandum
Memorandum for the Speaker of the House of Representatives
THE ARCHIVIST OF THE UNITED STATES
Appropriations request for Fiscal Year (FY) 2017
Dear Mr. Speaker:
I ask the Congress to consider the enclosed appropriations request for Fiscal Year (FY) 2017. The request includes an additional $30 billion for the Department of Defense (DOD) to rebuild the U.S. Armed Forces and accelerate the campaign to defeat the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), and an additional $3 billion for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for urgent border protection activities.
This appropriations request would provide $24.9 billion in the DOD base budget for urgent warfighting readiness needs and to begin a sustained effort to rebuild the U.S. Armed Forces. The request seeks to address critical budget shortfalls in personnel, training, maintenance, equipment, munitions, modernization, and infrastructure investment. It represents a critical first step in investing in a larger, more ready, and more capable military force.
The request also includes $5.1 billion in the Overseas Contingency Operations budget for DOD to accelerate the campaign to defeat ISIS and support Operation Freedom's Sentinel in Afghanistan. This request would enable DOD to pursue a comprehensive strategy to end the threat ISIS poses to the United States.
In addition, this appropriations request would provide an additional $3 billion for DHS implementation of my executive orders on border security and immigration enforcement. The request would fund efforts to plan, design, and construct a physical wall along the southern border, and make other critical investments in tactical border infrastructure and technology. The request also proposes funding to increase immigration detention capacity, which is necessary to ensure the removal of illegal aliens from the United States. Finally, the request funds new recruiting capacity at DHS so that it may hire additional immigration law enforcement officers and agents.
In conjunction with this request, I recommend that the Congress enact non-defense discretionary reductions of $18 billion in FY 2017, which would fully offset the amounts proposed for DHS and would offset half of the amounts proposed for DOD.
The details of this proposal are set forth in the enclosed letter from the Director of the Office of Management and Budget.

The effort by John Newton
    Approach, my soul, the mercy seat,
    Where Jesus answers prayer;
    There humbly fall before His feet,
    For none can perish there.
    Thy promise is my only plea,
    With this I venture nigh;
    Thou callest burdened souls to Thee,
    And such, O Lord, am I.
    Bowed down beneath a load of sin,
    By Satan sorely pressed,
    By war without and fears within,
    I come to Thee for rest.
    Be Thou my Shield and hiding Place,
    That, sheltered by Thy side,
    I may my fierce accuser face,
    And tell him Thou hast died!
    O wondrous love! to bleed and die,
    To bear the cross and shame,
    That guilty sinners, such as I,
    Might plead Thy gracious Name.
    “Poor tempest tossed soul, be still;
    My promised grace receive”;
    ’Tis Jesus speaks—I must, I will,
    I can, I do believe.

And I thought to myself, with an auctioneer's smirk. As I gazed on the freehold so rare: 'O Lord, if on Earth these chaste shows are they work. Of what is the Kingdom up there?'
