# Diary of ten years eventful life of an early settler in Western Australia and also A descriptive vocabulary of the language of the aborigines/To the reader

TO THE READER.
Occasional gaps or breaks in the continuity of dates may be perceived, but here is an extensive hiatus, which I cannot account for, and have no means of filling up. I have no sufficiently distinct recollection of the incidents of that period. The original letters are now in Australia; some may have been lost or misplaced, or destroyed by untoward accident. Perhaps, even they may have possibly been omitted purposely by the caution of Sir Thomas. But I cannot at this distance of time imagine any sufficient reason for such by anything written at length in my Journal.

# Diary of ten years eventful life of an early settler in Western Australia and also A descriptive vocabulary of the language of the aborigines/Western Australia for me

WESTERN AUSTRALIA FOR ME
Sung by me at the first ball given by the Governor, Sir James Stirling, in Perth.—G. F. M.
Air—"Ballinamona oro."
From the old Western world, we have come to explore The wilds of this Western Australian shore; In search of a country, we've ventured to roam, And now that we've found it, let's make it our home.  And what though the colony's new, Sirs,  And inhabitants yet may be few, Sirs,  We see them encreasing here too, Sirs,  So Western Australia for me.
With care and experience, I'm sure 'twill be found Two crops in the year we may get from the ground; There's good wood and good water, good flesh and good fish, Good soil and good clime, and what more could you wish.  Then let every one earnestly strive, Sirs,  Do his best, be alert and alive, Sirs,  We'll soon see our colony thrive, Sirs,  So Western Australia for me.
No lions of tigers we here dread to meet, Our innocent quadrupeds hop on two feet; No tithes and no taxes we now have to pay, And our geese are all swans, as some witty folks say.  Then we live without trouble or stealth, Sirs,  Our currency's all sterling wealth, Sirs,  So here's to our Governor's health, Sirs,  And Western Australia for me.
* ↑ There are no ferocious beasts there. The timid kangaroo is the largest indigenous animal. Swans were so abundant on the river when first discovered as to give the name Swan River Settlement. I dare not say that I christened the colony, but certainly after the above song the name of Western Australia was adopted.
* ↑ There was much trouble then about a debased currency at the Cape of Good Hope and elsewhere.

# Diary of the times of Charles II/Volume 1/Diary continued, August 31 to September 2

​August 31st.There dined with me Mr. Middleton and his governor. After dinner, Colonel Fitz Patrick sent me a letter, which gave him notice of the Duke's being gone into England; it was from J. Ch., which Mr. Meredith thought was one Chaumont. He blamed the rashness of the Duke's action, and spoke of the ill-usage of the Catholics.
Sept. 1st.I went to Monsieur Van Beuninghen, and found him in the forchoult; he was not at all disposed to make any new alliance, and talked much of the Duke's going into England, and so does all the world. In the afternoon, I went to Hounslerdyke, and staid there till nine. I met the Prince in the way in a narrow passage, and told him how the King was, and of the Duke's going, which he was surprised at, but said he could not blame him, for he believes he should have done the same thing if he had been in his ​place. He is afraid it will be ill for the King's business.
2nd.I went to Hounslerdyke, and had a long conversation with the Prince on public affairs, of the Duke's going into England, of the Parliament, of Fitz Patrick, of Lord Halifax. He said he could not bring himself to write to the Duchess of Portsmouth. He shewed me a letter from the Duke, and one from Mr. Grodolphin, inviting him to come over. I received letters from Lord Sunderland, Mr. Godolphin, Sir W. Temple, and sister Sunderland.

# Defensive Ferments of the Animal Organism/Methods in Use/The Optical Method

II. The Optical Method.
The principle of the Method.—The optical method enables us to demonstrate alterations in optically active substrates by a determination, with the aid of a polariscope, of changes in their angle of rotation.
The aim of the optical method is, in principle, exactly the same as that of the dialysation process. In the latter we determine the transformation of a colloid into a diffusible crystalloid. This transformation is the result of a hydrolytic decomposition. In the optical method we start, for purely technical reasons, not with albumen, but with peptone produced from the latter. We cannot use albumen, because it would prevent us determining the angle of deviation of the substrate-serum mixture. It would either give rise to precipitates, or else render the mixture so heterogeneous, that slight changes of rotation would be very difficult to follow. When using the optical method, we allow the decomposition, produced by the ferments present in the serum, to set ​in later, than in the dialysation process. We remove part of the decomposition from the influence of the ferment, when we convert albumen into peptone in the test-tube. It must be our aim to maintain the peptone mixture in as high a molecular state as is possible, as experience has shown, that decomposites of too low molecularity are not attacked by some kinds of serum, which decompose more highly molecular peptones. It is very clearly shown, in this connection, that the conception of the unity of the proteolytic ferments does not correspond at all with the reality. There is not the slightest doubt, that different ferments exist for different stages of decomposition. The principal problem, in the application of the optical method to biological questions, was the elaboration of a method of dealing with highly molecular peptones, which are very closely related to the albumens.
The Application of the Optical Method.—This is very simple. 1 c.c. of serum, absolutely free from hæmoglobin, is placed in a test-tube. It must not contain any form-elements, and must be sterile. To this is added 1 c.c. of a 5 to 10 per cent. solution of peptone, prepared from the organ in question. Of course, peptones may also be prepared from bacilli, or else from certain proteins. The serum is mixed with the peptone solution and poured into a polarization tube, of a capacity of 2 c.c., and the angle of rotation of the mixture, at a temperature of ​37° C., is determined. The deviations are noted at certain intervals. If there is no change in the deviation, then we conclude that no decomposition has taken place. Should there be an alteration in the rotation after some time, then we must infer a fermentative decomposition, such as has been demonstrated by special experiments with ferment solutions.
We shall now give a description of the preparation of the peptone.

# Detroit Railway Company v. Fletcher Paper Company/Opinion of the Court

* Court Documents
* Case Syllabus
* Opinion of the Court
United States Supreme Court
248 U.S. 30
Detroit Railway Company v. Fletcher Paper Company
These five suits were actions of assumpsit brought to recover the difference between the rates fixed by the Michigan Railroad Commission on logs carried wholly within the State, from points on the defendant's (the plaintiff in error's) road to Alpena, and the higher rates that the defendant actually charged. The plaintiffs got judgments which were affirmed by the Supreme Court of Michigan, 164 N. W. 528, and the cases are brought here upon lengthy assignments of error. The plaintiffs now move to dismiss or affirm. We are of opinion that the judgments should be affirmed.
Most of the assignments of error concern questions of local law with which we cannot deal. Such are whether the order of the Commission were in force pending an injunction and before the defendant railroad had fixed rates in pursuance of a mandate of the State Court; whether the State laws permit an action to be maintained without an order of reparation by the Commission; and whether the statutes purport to make the order fixing the rates conclusive in the present suits. These questions depend upon the construction of the State laws, as to which, upon writs of error to the State Court that Court has the last word. Its power would not be diminished if similar provisions in an Act of Congress had been differently construed by this Court. The only question properly before us is whether the statutes as construed run against the Fourteenth Amendment of the Constitution of the United States. It is argued that they do, if, as was held, they preclude an inquiry in these proceedings into the confiscatory character of the rates in present circumstances. But the defendant had had its chance to have the validity of the rates judicially determined in a suit for that purpose and had used it. Detroit & Mackinac Ry. Co. v. Michigan Railroad Commission, 235 U.S. 402, 35 Sup. Ct. 126, 59 L. Ed. 288. There is nothing to hinder a State from providing that after a judicial inquiry into the validity of such an order it shall be binding upon the parties until changed. The defendant was free to apply to the Commission.
A milling-in-transit rate allowing the defendant to add fifty cents a thousand feet on lumber if, instead of being carried on, after it was manufactured, on the through rate, the product was not reshipped by the defendant's line, was held to be permitted by the statute. It is said that this would be contrary to the interstate commerce act if these cases involved interstate commerce, which they do not. We see no question concerning it that requires to be dealt with here.
Judgment affirmed.
