United States Supreme Court
68 U.S. 272
Seybert v. City of Pittsburg
THE legislature of Pennsylvania incorporated a railway company, by act of Assembly, one section of which enacted that any incorporated CITY should have authority to subscribe to the stock 'as fully as any individual,' but the act did not give such cities any power to issue bonds in payment of their subscriptions. However, the city of Pittsburg, in Pennsylvania, having subscribed for several shares of the stock, did issue its negotiable bonds in payment of the subscription. Some of these bonds having got into the ownership of the plaintiff, Seybert, and not being paid when due, he sued the city in the Circuit Court of the United States for the Western District of Pennsylvania, upon them; a case being stated for judgment. A person named Reinboth, who also owned some of the bonds, had about the same time sued the city in one of the State courts of Pennsylvania, and the question as to the right of the city of issue the bonds was pending in the Supreme Court of that State when the present case, of Seybert, came on for argument in the Circuit Court below. To expedite a decision, which the parties desired to have, in this, the Supreme Court of the United States, the Circuit Court entered a judgment pro form a in favor of the city; so deciding, for the sake of form, that it, the city, could not, under the powers given, issue its bonds for payment of the stock subscribed for. Between the time, however, of this judgment in the court below, and the time when the case was called for argument here, Reinboth's case had been decided in the Supreme Court of the State. That court said as follows: 'The power given to the corporation to subscribe was a power to create a debt, and consequently to give an evidence of the debt. The authority given was to subscribe as fully as an individual; and as an individual (by agreement with the company) could have given his bond, the city corporation had the same power. That grants of powers to corporations are strictly construed in favor of the public, but it would be a perversion of the rule to permit a coporation to use it to defraud its creditors, or protect itself against its own assumed obligations. If they legally owe a debt, it follows that they can give a bond for it.' Mr. Knox, for Seybert, submitted the case by brief.
Mr. Justice GRIER delivered, in a few words, the opinion of the court.

JOHN NORTON, Esq. [Commander.]
Was born at Yarmouth, co. Norfolk, April 15th, 1771; and appears to have entered the navy in 1789. We first find him serving under Sir Richard J. Strachan, in the Phoenix frigate, on the East India station; and next in the Alexander 74, commanded by the late Sir Richard Rodney Bligh, with whom he was taken prisoner and carried into Brest, in Nov. 1794. On his return from captivity he joined the Topaze frigate, Captain Stephen George Church; and on the 28th Aug. 1796, assisted at the capture of la Elizabet, French frigate, near Cape Henry, on the coast of America. His promotion to the rank of lieutenant took place in 1799; and he was afterwards successively appointed to the Resolution 74, Captain the Hon. Alan Hyde Gardner, with whom he sailed for the West Indies, Feb. 7th, 1802; – to the Trent 36, bearing the flag of Admiral Lord Gardner, at Cork, in 1804; – to the command of the Frisk cutter, in 1805; – and to the Fame 74, Captain Richard H. A. Bennet, fitting out for the Mediterranean station, in May, 1807. Whilst in the Frisk, he assisted at the capture and destruction of a three-gun battery, situated on Pointe d’Equillon, in the Pertuis Breton, and was highly commended, by Lord Cochrane, for his conduct on that occasion. He obtained the rank of commander in Oct. 1810, since which he has not been employed.
This officer married in 1803, and has issue one daughter.

# Sacred Books of the East/Volume 16/Hexagram 16

XVI. The Yü Hexagram.
1. The first line, divided, shows its subject proclaiming his pleasure and satisfaction. There will be evil.
2. The second line, divided, shows one who is firm as a rock. (He sees a thing) without waiting till it has come to pass; with his firm correctness there will be good fortune.
3. The third line, divided, shows one looking up (for favours), while he indulges the feeling of pleasure and satisfaction. If he would understand!—If he be late in doing so, there will indeed be occasion for repentance.
4. The fourth line, undivided, shows him from whom the harmony and satisfaction come. Great ​is the success which he obtains. Let him not allow suspicions to enter his mind, and thus friends will gather around him.
5. The fifth line, divided, shows one with a chronic complaint, but who lives on without dying.
6. The topmost line, divided, shows its subject with darkened mind devoted to the pleasure and satisfaction (of the time); but if he change his course even when (it may be considered as) completed, there will be no error.
Line 1 is weak, and has for its correlate the strong 4. Its subject may well enjoy the happiness of the time. But he cannot contain himself, and proclaims, or boasts of, his satisfaction;—which is evil.
Line 2, though weak, is in its correct position, the centre, moreover, of the lower trigram. Quietly and firmly its subject is able to abide in his place, and exercise a far-seeing discrimination. All is indicative of good fortune.
Line 3 is weak, and in an odd place. Immediately below line 4, its subject keeps looking up to the lord of the figure, and depends on him, thinking of doing nothing, but how to enjoy himself. The consequence will be as described, unless he speedily change.
The strong subject of line 4 is the agent to whom the happy condition is owing; and it is only necessary to caution him to maintain his confidence in himself and his purpose, and his adherents and success will continue.
Line 5 is in the ruler's place; but it is weak, and he is in danger of being carried away by the lust of pleasure. Moreover, proximity to the powerful minister represented by 4 is a source of danger. ​Hence he is represented as suffering from a chronic complaint, but nevertheless he does not die. See Appendix II on the line.
Line 6, at the very top or end of the hexagram, is weak, and its subject is all but lost. Still even for him there is a chance of safety, if he will but change.
# Sacred Books of the East/Volume 16/Hexagram 17

XVII. The Sui Hexagram.
1. The first line, undivided, shows us one changing the object of his pursuit; but if he be firm and correct, there will he good fortune. Going beyond (his own) gate to find associates, he will achieve merit.
2. The second line, divided, shows us one who cleaves to the little boy, and lets go the man of age and experience.
3. The third line, divided, shows us one who cleaves to the man of age and experience, and lets go the little boy. Such following will get what it seeks; but it will be advantageous to adhere to what is firm and correct.
​5. The fifth line, undivided, shows us (the ruler) sincere in (fostering all) that is excellent. There will be good fortune.
6. The topmost line, divided, shows us (that sincerity) firmly held and clung to, yea, and bound fast. (We see) the king with it presenting his offerings on the western mountain.
Line 1 is strong, and lord of the lower trigram. The weak lines ought to follow it; but here it is below them, in the lowest place of the figure. This gives rise to the representation of one changing his pursuit. Still through the native vigour indicated by the line being strong, and in its correct place, its subject will be fortunate. Going beyond his gate to find associates indicates his public spirit, and superiority to selfish considerations.
Line 2 is weak. Its proper correlate is the strong 5; but it prefers to cleave to the line below, instead of waiting to follow 5. Hence the symbolism of the text, the bad omen of which needs not to be mentioned.
Line 3 is also weak, but it follows the strong line above it and leaves line 1, reversing the course of 2;—with a different issue. It is weak, however, and 4 is not its proper correlate; hence the conclusion of the paragraph is equivalent to a caution.
Line 4 is strong, and in the place of a great minister next the ruler in 5. But his having adherents may be injurious to the supreme and sole authority of that ruler, and only a sincere loyalty will save him from error and misfortune.
Line 5 is strong, and in its correct place, with 2 as its proper correlate; thus producing the auspicious symbolism.
The issue of the hexagram is seen in line 6; which represents the ideal of following, directed by the most sincere adherence to ​what is right. This influence not only extends to men, but also to spiritual beings. 'The western hill' is mount Khî, at the foot of which was the original settlement of the house of Kâu, in B.C. 1325. The use of the name 'king' here brings us down from Wăn into the time of king Wû at least.
# Sacred Books of the East/Volume 16/Hexagram 20

XX. The Kwân Hexagram.
1. The first line, divided, shows the looking of a lad;—not blamable in men of inferior rank, but matter for regret in superior men.
2. The second line, divided, shows one peeping out from a door. It would be advantageous if it were (merely) the firm correctness of a female.
3. The third line, divided, shows one looking at (the course of) his own life, to advance or recede (accordingly).
4. The fourth line, divided, shows one contemplating the glory of the kingdom. It will be advantageous for him, being such as he is, (to seek) to be a guest of the king.
5. The fifth line, undivided, shows its subject contemplating his own life(-course). A superior man, he will (thus) fall into no error.
6. The sixth line, undivided, shows its subject contemplating his character to see if it be indeed that of a superior man. He will not fall into error.
XX. The Chinese character Kwân, from which this hexagram is named, is used in it in two senses. In the Thwan, the first paragraph of the treatise on the Thwan, and the paragraph on the Great Symbolism, it denotes showing, manifesting; in all other places it denotes contemplating, looking at. The subject of the hexagram is the sovereign and his subjects, how he manifests himself to them, and how they contemplate him. The two upper, undivided, lines belong to the sovereign; the four weak lines below them are his subjects,—ministers and others who look up at him. Kwân is the hexagram of the eighth month.
Line 1 is weak, and in the lowest place, improper also for ​the symbol of a thoughtless lad, who cannot see far, and takes only superficial views.
Line 2 is also weak, but in its proper place, showing a woman, living retired, and only able to peep as from her door at the subject of the fifth line. But ignorance and retirement are proper in a woman.
Line 3, at the top of the lower trigram Khwăn, and weak, must belong to a subject of the utmost docility, and will wish to act only according to the exigency of time and circumstances.
Line 4, in the place proper to its weakness, is yet in immediate proximity to 5, representing the sovereign. Its subject is moved accordingly, and stirred to ambition.
Line 5 is strong, and in the place of the ruler. He is a superior man, but this does not relieve him from the duty of self-contemplation or examination.
There is a slight difference in the 6th paragraph from the 5th, which can hardly be expressed in a translation. By making a change in the punctuation, however, the different significance may be brought out. Line 6 is strong, and should be considered out of the work of the hexagram, but its subject is still possessed by the spirit of its idea, and is led to self-examination.
# Sacred Books of the East/Volume 16/Hexagram 14

XIV. The Tâ Yû Hexagram.
1. In the first line, undivided, there is no approach to what is injurious, and there is no error. Let there be a realisation of the difficulty (and danger of the position), and there will be no error (to the end).
2. In the second line, undivided, we have a large waggon with its load. In whatever direction advance is made, there will be no error.
3. The third line, undivided, shows us a feudal prince presenting his offerings to the Son of Heaven. A small man would be unequal (to such a duty).
4. The fourth line, undivided, shows its subject keeping his great resources under restraint. There will be no error.
5. The fifth line, divided, shows the sincerity of its subject reciprocated by that of all the others (represented in the hexagram). Let him display a proper majesty, and there will be good fortune.
6. The topmost line, undivided, shows its subject with help accorded to him from Heaven. There will be good fortune, advantage in every respect.
Line 1, though strong, is at the lowest part of the figure, and has no correlate above. No external influences have as yet acted injuriously on its subject. Let him do as directed, and no hurtful influence will ever affect him.
The strong line 2 has its proper correlate in line 5, the ruler of the figure, and will use its strength in subordination to his humility. Hence the symbolism.
Line 3 is strong, and in the right (an odd) place. The topmost line of the lower trigram is the proper place for a feudal lord. The subject of this will humbly serve the condescending ruler in line 5. A small man, having the place without the virtue, would give himself airs.
Line 4 is strong, but the strength is tempered by the position, which is that of a weak line. Hence he will do no injury to the mild ruler, to whom he is so near.
Line 5 symbolises the ruler. Mild sincerity is good in him, and affects his ministers and others. But a ruler must not be without an awe-inspiring majesty.
Even the topmost line takes its character from 5. The strength of its subject is still tempered, and Heaven gives its approval.
