MARIA to MRS. RUXTON.
EDGEWORTHSTOWN, Jan. 24, 1818.
My dearest aunt and friend—friend of my youth and age, and beloved sister of my father, how many titles you have to my affection and gratitude, and how delightful it is to me to feel them all! Since I have parted from you, I have felt still more than when I was with you the peculiar value to me of your sympathy and kindness. I find my spirits sink beyond my utmost effort to support them when I leave you, and they rise involuntarily when I am near you, and recall the dear trains of old associations, and the multitude of ideas I used to have with him who is gone for ever. Thank you, my dear aunt, for your most kind and touching letter. You have been for three months daily and hourly soothing, and indulging, and nursing me body and mind, and making me forget the sense of pain which I could not have felt suspended in any society but yours. My uncle's opinion and hints about the Life I have been working at this whole week. Nothing can be kinder than Lovell is to all of us.
I have read two-thirds of Bishop Watson's life. I think he bristles his independence too much upon every occasion, and praises himself too much for it, and above all complains too much of the want of preferment and neglect of him by the Court. I have Madame de Staël's Memoirs of her father's private life: I have only read fifty pages of it—too much of a French Éloge—too little of his private life. There is a Notice by Benjamin Constant of Madame de Staël's life prefixed to this work, which appears to me more interesting and pathetic than anything Madame de Staël has yet said of her father.
February 21.
I must and will write to my Aunt Ruxton to-day, if the whole College of Physicians, and the whole conclave of cardinal virtues, with Prudence primming up her mouth at the head of them, stood before me. I entirely agree with you, my dearest aunt, on one subject, as indeed I generally do on most subjects, but particularly about Northanger Abbey and Persuasion. The behaviour of the General in Northanger Abbey, packing off the young lady without a servant or the common civilities which any bear of a man, not to say gentleman, would have shown, is quite outrageously out of drawing and out of nature. Persuasion— excepting the tangled, useless histories of the family in the first fifty pages—appears to me, especially in all that relates to poor Anne and her lover, to be exceedingly interesting and natural. The love and the lover admirably well drawn: don't you see Captain Wentworth, or rather don't you in her place feel him taking the boisterous child off her back as she kneels by the sick boy on the sofa? And is not the first meeting after their long separation admirably well done? And the overheard conversation about the nut? But I must stop: we have got no farther than the disaster of Miss Musgrave's jumping off the steps.
I am going on, but very slowly, and not to my satisfaction with my work.

To MRS. SNEYD EDGEWORTH.
EDGEWORTHSTOWN, March 27.
I agree with you in thinking the MS. de Sainte-Helene a magnificent performance. My father was strongly of opinion that it was not written by Buonaparte himself, and he grounded this opinion chiefly upon the passages relative to the Duc d'Enghien: c'était plus qu'un crime, c'était une faute; no man, he thought, not even Nero, would, in writing for posterity say that he had committed a crime instead of a fault. But it may be observed that in the Buonaparte system of morality which runs through the book, nothing is considered what we call a crime, unless it be what he allows to be a fault. His proof that he did not murder Pichegru is, that it would have been useless. Le cachet de Buonaparte is as difficult to imitate as le cachet de Voltaire. I know of but three people in Europe who could have written it: Madame de Staël, Talleyrand, or M. Dumont. Madame de Staël, though she has the ability, could not have got so plainly and shortly through it. Talleyrand has l'esprit comme un démon, but he could not for the soul of him have refused himself a little more wit and wickedness. Dumont has not enough audacity of mind.

To MRS. STARK.
SPRING FARM, N.T. MOUNT KENNEDY, June 1818.
I am, and have been ever since I could any way command my attention, intent upon finishing those Memoirs of himself which my father left me to finish and charged me to publish. Yet I have accepted an invitation to Bowood, from Lady Lansdowne, whom I love, and as soon as I have finished I shall go there. As to Scotland, I have no chance of getting there at present, but if ever I go there, depend upon it, I shall go to see you. Never, never can I forget those happy days we spent with you, and the warmhearted kindness we received from you and yours: those were "sunny spots" in my life.

Keene v. Whitaker
This case comes up by writ of error from the Circuit Court of the United States, for the District of East Louisiana. It has been submitted by the counsel for the plaintiff in error, without argument; and upon looking at the case as agreed on and stated by the parties in the Court below, it is evident that the principles laid down in the case of Foster and Elam vs. Neilson, 2 Peters, 254; and Garcia vs. Lee, 12 Peters, 511, must decide this case against the plaintiff. The judgment of the Circuit Court must, therefore, be affirmed.
This cause came on to be heard on the transcript of the record from the Circuit Court of the United States for the Eastern District of Louisiana, and was argued by counsel. On consideration whereof, it is now here ordered and adjudged by this Court, that the judgment of the said Circuit Court, in this cause be, and the same is hereby, affirmed, with costs.

Keene v. Whittaker
THIS case came up from the Circuit Court of the United States for the eastern district of Louisiana.
In that Court a statement of the case had been made by the plaintiff, and the counsel for the defendants, upon which the Court gave a judgment for the defendants. The plaintiff petitioned the Circuit Court for a writ of error to the Supreme Court, and the same was allowed. The record as sent up from the Circuit Court contained nothing but the agreed statement of facts, the judgment of the Circuit Court on these facts, and the petition of the defendant for a writ of error; together with an allowance of it by the Circuit Court in December, 1838.
The case was submitted to the Court, without argument.
Mr. Justice WAYNE delivered the opinion of the Court.

United States Supreme Court

Keene v. Whitaker
ON appeal from the Circuit Court of the United States for East Louisiana.
On the 26th November, 1833, the appellant filed a petition in the Circuit Court of the Eastern District of Louisiana, claiming under conveyances to him from Daniel Clarke, deceased, a tract of land, of nine hundred and forty-seven acres, part of thirty thousand arpents, which in 1804 had been granted by the Spanish intendant, Don Juan Ventura Morales, in the name of the Spanish government, to Don Gilberty Andry, who was the vendor of part of the tract to Daniel Clarke. This tract was situated in that part of what was alleged to be a part of Louisiana, by the United States, between the river Perdido, and the river Mississippi, they claiming the same under the cession of France to the United States of Louisiana. The United States had asserted that this country had been trans ferred to France by Spain, by the treaty of St. Ildefonso, of 1800, and under the treaty with France belonged to the United States. Under this claim the United States had caused sales of the land to be made; and the defendants in error had become the purchasers under the United States, of the tract which the petitioner asserted to belong to him under the grant to Don Gilberty Andry.
The petition prays proceedings against those who had purchased from the United States; and all just and legal aid in the premises.
The defendants, in their answer to the petition, allege, that subsequently to the treaty of St. Ildefonso, of 1800, the Spanish government never had any right or title to the property claimed. By that treaty, the whole of the territory lying between Mississippi and the Perdido, including the land claimed by the plaintiff, belonged, under the treaty with France, to the United States. The property of the defendants is held under titles from the United States.
The Circuit Court made a decree against the plaintiff, who, thereupon, prosecuted this writ of error.
The case was submitted to the Court by Messrs. Key and Jones, the counsel for the plaintiff in error, without argument.
Mr. Chief Justice TANEY delivered the opinion of the Court.

# Keep Calm and Carry On

"Keep Calm and Carry On" was a motivational poster produced by the British government in 1939 in preparation for the Second World War. The poster was intended to raise the morale of the British public, threatened with widely predicted mass air attacks on major cities. Although 2.45 million copies were printed, and although the Blitz happened, the poster was hardly ever publicly displayed and was little known until a copy was rediscovered in 2000. It has since been re-issued by a number of private companies, and has been used as the decorative theme for a range of products.Warning: template has been deprecated.

# Lines (Lowell)

Suggested by the Graves of Two English Soldiers on Concord Battle-Ground
The same good blood that now refills The dotard Orient's shrunken veins, The same whose vigor westward thrills, Bursting Nevada's silver chains, Poured here upon the April grass, Freckled with red the herbage new; On reeled the battle's trampling mass, Back to the ash the bluebird flew.
Poured here in vain; — that sturdy blood Was meant to make the earth more green, But in a higher, gentler mood Than broke this April noon serene; Two graves are here: to mark the place, At head and foot, an unhewn stone, O'er which the herald lichens trace The blazon of Oblivion.
These men were brave enough, and true, To the hired soldier's bull-dog creed; What brought them here they never knew, They fought as suits the English breed: They came three thousand miles, and died, To keep the Past upon its throne; Unheard, beyond the ocean tide, Their English mother made her moan.
The turf that covers them no thrill Sends up to fire the heart and brain; No stronger purpose nerves the will, No hope renews its youth again: From farm to farm the Concord glides, And trails my fancy with its flow; O'erheard the balanced hen-hawk slides, Twinned in the river's heaven below.
But go, whose Bay State bosom stirs, Proud of thy birth and neighbor's right, Where sleep the heroic villagers Borne red and stiff from Concord flight; Thought Reuben, snatching down his gun, Or Seth, as ebbed the life away, What earthquake rifts would shoot and run World-wide from that short April fray?
What then? With heart and hand they wrought, According to their village light: 'T was for the Future that they fought, Their rustic faith in what was right. Upon earth's tragic stage they burst Unsummoned, in the humble sock; Theirs the fifth act; the curtain first Rose long ago on Charles's block.
Their graves have voices; if they threw Dice charged with fates beyond their ken, Yet to their instincts they were true, And had the genius to be men. Fine privilege of Freedom's host, Of humblest soldiers for the Right! — Age after age ye hold your post, Your graves send courage forth, and might.

# Lines, on the Death of Bishop N. K. Whitney

Published in the Deseret News on October 5, 1850, 12 days after Newel K. Whitney died in Salt Lake City.
A mighty man, a man of worth,  A father and a friend, Has left the narrow sphere of earth,  His upward course to wend.
Firm as the hills—he was a stay,  A bulwark and a shield— Like a strong pillar, mov'd away  To Zion's broader field.
From understanding's deepest wells  Unmeasur'd draughts he drew— The light, that with Jehovah dwells,  Inspir'd his judgment too.
With dignity he fill'd the sphere  Allotted him below— His presence seem'd an impulse here  To wisdom's genial flow.
But now his noble form must lie  And slumber in the dust; While he with honor joins the high  Assemblies of the just.
With fondly cherish'd memory  His name will be belov'd, While virtue and integrity  Are by the Saints approv'd.
The stroke is with a heavy rod—  But while our hearts deplore His loss, we'll own the hand of God,  That God whom we adore.
