trur BITTER END. This phrase, which is
now so popular With orators and writer's OF
certain cert class, BY whom it is used as an express
ave SYNONYM for the the last extremity, is OF
nautical origin. according to the Boston Daily
aai The end of a ships cable which
IS attached to the anchor suffers more or less In
nse--is gradually rotted and worn perhaps. :
But the other end, which is secured within the
vessel, remains as SQUAD as when it was made,
and 10 the nautical phrase Of two hundred years
at least, has been known as the better end y
When, in gale, vessel has paid out all
her cable, her cable has run out to ''the better
end" Then comes the tug, Of course, and
then it is decided whether the storm will be too
much for the cable or the cable too much for
the storm. The phrase is properly used, there
fore, to designate crisis or the moment of an
extremity The extremity Of the cable, ia
fact. is its better end AS. long ago as
Robinson Crusoes voyage, when that terrible
storm struck them in Yarmouth Roads, he
says, we rode with two anchors ahead. and
the cables veered out to the better end. -
Hence phrase which is nearly without mean
log, which has crept even into The pulpit,
which talks in the extremity Ut the bit
