In this island stood the castle of Dunelong, possessed by the O’Driscolls, which was surrendered to Captain Harvey on the 23d of February 1602, after the defeat of the Spaniards. There was afterwards a regular fortification erected on part of the island, which was garrisoned in Queen Anne’s time, but it has long been dismantled. About a mile to the south are the remains of an ancient abbey, founded 1460, for Franciscans, by Florence O’Driscoll.

INO, in fabulous history, a daughter of Cadmus and Harmonia, who nursed Bacchus. She married Athamas, king of Thebes, after he had divorced Nephele, by whom he had two children, Phryxus and Helle. Ino became mother of Melicerta and Learchus; and soon conceived an implacable hatred against the children of Nephele, because they were to ascend the throne in preference to her own. Phryxus and Helle were informed of Ino’s machinations, and escaped to Colchis on a golden ram. Juno, jealous of Ino’s prosperity, resolved to disturb her peace; and more particularly because she was a descendant of her greatest enemy Venus. Tisiphone being sent by order of Juno to the house of Athamas, she filled the whole palace with such fury, that Athamas, taking Ino to be a lioness and her children whelps, pursued her and dashed her son Learchus against a wall. Ino escaped the fury of her husband, and from a high rock threw herself into the sea, with Melicerta in her arms. The gods pitied her fate; and Neptune transformed her into a sea deity, afterwards denominated Leucothoe. Melicerta also became a sea god, and was known by the name of Palemon.
INOA, festivals in memory of Ino, celebrated yearly with sports and sacrifices at Corinth. An anniversary sacrifice was also offered to Ino at Megara, where she was first worshipped under the name of Leucothoe.

INSTALLATION, the act of giving visible possession of an order, rank, or office, by placing the person collated or appointed in the proper seat.
INSTALMENT, a settling or instating any person in a dignity. The word is derived from the Latin in and stallum, a term used for a seat in church, in the choir, or a seat or bench in a court of justice, though Vossius is of opinion that the word is of German origin.

INSTITUTES, a book containing the elements of the Roman law. See Civil Law. National Institute of France, was founded by a decree of the new constitution, and opened on the 7th of December 1795. The abolition of royalty naturally suggested to the democratic rulers of France, that it would likewise be proper to abolish every thing which had the remotest connexion with it. Condorcet therefore proposed that the seven old academies, which had the term royal prefixed to them should give way to the establishment of one new academy of arts and sciences, under the title of the National Institute.

The Academy, or Institute, was to consist of two hundred and eighty-eight members, the half of whom were to have their residence in Paris, and the rest in the different departments, with twenty-four foreign members.

This academy was divided into three classes; these were subdivided into sections, and each of these again consisted of twelve members. The first class, consisting of ten sections, were to preside over mathematics, mechanical arts, astronomy, experimental philosophy, chemistrynatural history, botany, anatomy and animal history, medicine and surgery, animal economy, and the veterinary science. The second class, having for its department morality and politics, consisted of six sections, viz. analysis of sensations and ideas, morals, legislature, political economy, history, and geography. The third class, consisting of eight sections, presided over literature and the fine arts, viz. universal grammar, ancient languages, poetry, antiquities, painting, sculpture, architecture, and music. Several volumes of memoirs have been published by each of the classes.

The Institute was new-modelled by Napoleon in 1806, and again on the return of the Bourbons. By a decree of the 21 st of March 1816, it was ordered that the Institute should be composed of four academies; viz. the French Academy, the Royal Academy of Inscriptions and Belles Lettres, the Royal Academy of Sciences, and the Royal Academy of Fine Arts. Some alterations were at the same time made in the number of members, and in other particulars.
INSTITUTION, in general, signifies the establishing or founding of something. In the canon and common law, it signifies the investing a clerk with the spiritualities of a rectory or other preferment, which is done by the bishop, who uses the following formula: “I institute you rector of such a church with the cure of souls, and receive your care and mine.”

Institutions, in literary matters, denote a system of elements or rules of any art or science. Thus physical or medical institutions are such as teach the praecognita ne cessary to the practice of medicine, or to the cure of diseases.
INSTRUMENT, in general, whatever is subservient to a cause in producing any effect.

Instrument is also used in law to signify some public act, or authentic deed, by means of which any truth is made apparent, or any right or title established, in a court of justice.

INTEGRAL, or Integrant, in Philosophy, appellations given to parts of bodies which are of a similar nature with the whole. Thus filings of iron have the same nature and properties as bars of iron.

Bodies may be reduced into their integrant parts by triture or grinding, limation or filing, solution, amalgamation, and other processes.

Integral Calculus, in the new analysis, is the reverse of the differential calculus, and is the finding of the integral from a given differential, being similar to the inverse method of fluxions. See Fluxions.
INTELLECT, a term used amongst philosophers to signify that faculty of the soul usually called the understanding. See Logic and Metaphysics.
INTENDANT, one who has the conduct, inspection, and management of any thing.
INTENDMENT, in Law, is the intention, design, or true meaning, of a person or thing, which frequently supplies what is not fully expressed; but though the intention of parties in deeds and contracts is much regarded by the law, yet it cannot take place against the rules of law.

Intendment of Crimes. This, in case of treason, where the intention is proved by circumstances, is punishable in the same manner as if it had actually been put in execution.
INTENT, in the civil law, signifies to begin or commence an action or process.
INTENTION, in Physics, the increase of the power or energy of any quality, as heat or cold, by which it stands opposed to remission, which signifies its decrease or diminution. *.

INTERCALARY, an appellation given to the odd day inserted in leap-year; which was so called from calo, calare, to proclaim, it being proclaimed with a loud voice by the priests.
INTERCESSION (intercession was used in ancient Rome for the act of a tribune of the people, or other magistrate, by which he inhibited the acts of other magistrates; and even, in the case of the tribunes, the decrees of the senate. Veto was the solemn word used by the tribunes when they inhibited any decree of the senate, or law proposed to the people. The general principle of these intercessions was, that any magistrate might inhibit the acts of his equal or inferior; but the tribunes had the sole prerogative of controlling the acts of every other magistrate, yet could not themselves be controlled by any.
INTERCESSOR (from inter and cedo, I go between), a person who prays, expostulates, or intercedes, in behalf of another. In the Roman law, intercessor was the name of an officer, whom the governors of provinces appointed principally to raise taxes and other duties.

Intercessor is also a term which was heretofore applied to such bishops as, during the vacancy of a see, administered the bishopric till a successor to the deceased prelate had been elected. The third council of Carthage calls these interventors.
INTERCOLUMNIATION, in Architecture, denotes the space between two columns, which is always proportioned to the height and bulk of the columns.
INTERCOSTAL, in Anatomy, an appellation given to such muscles, nerves, arteries, and veins, as lie between the ribs.
INTERDICT, an ecclesiastical censure, by which the church of Rome forbids the performance of divine service in a kingdom, province, or town. This censure has frequently been enforced in France, Italy, and Germany; and, in the year 1170, Pope Alexander III. put all England under an interdict, forbidding the clergy to perform any part of divine service, except baptizing infants, taking confessions, and giving absolution to dying penitents. But this censure being liable to the evil consequences of promoting libertinism and a neglect of religion, the succeeding popes have very seldom had recourse to it.

There was also an interdict of persons, who were deprived of the benefit of attending at divine service. Particular persons were also anciently interdicted the use of fire and water, which signified a banishment for some particular offence. By this censure no person was permitted to receive them, or allow them the use of fire or water; and being thus wholly deprived of the two necessary elements of life, they were doubtless under a sentence of proscription.
INTERJECTION, in Grammar, an indeclinable part of speech, expressive of some passion or emotion of the mind. See Grammar.
INTERIM, a name given to a formulary, or kind of confession, of the articles of faith, obtruded upon the Protestants after Luther’s death by the Emperor Charles V. when he had defeated their forces; and so called because it was only to take place in the interim (mean time), till a general council should have decided all points in dispute between the Protestants and Catholics. It retained most of the doctrines and ceremonies of the Catholics, excepting that of marriage, which was allowed to the clergy, and communion to the laity under both kinds. Most of the Protestants rejected it. There were two interims besides this; the one of Leipsic, and the other of Franconia.
INTERLOCUTOR, in Scotch Law, is the decision or judgment of a court before the final decree is passed and θxtractθd∙
INTERLOCUTORY Decree, in English Law. In a suit in equity, if *ιny matter of fact be strongly controverted, the fact is usually directed to be tried at the bar of the Court of King’s Bench, or at the assizes, upon a feigned issue. If a question of mere law arises in tbθ course of a cause, it is the practice of the Court of Chancery to refer it to the opinion of the judges of the Court of King’s Bench, upon a case stated for that purpose. In such cases, interlocutory decrees or orders are made.
[7:12:329]

Interlocutory Judgments are such as are given in the middle of a cause, upon some plea, proceeding on default, which is not intermediate, and does not finally determine or complete the suit. But the interlocutory judgments most usually spoken of are those incomplete judgments by which the right of the plaintiff is established, but the quantum of damages sustained by him is not ascertained, which is the province of a jury. In such a case a writ of inquiry issues to the sheriff, who summons a jury, inquires of the"damages, and returns to the court the inquisition so taken, whereupon the plaintiff’s attorney taxes costs, and signs final judgment.

Interlocutory Order, that which decides not the cause, but only settles some intervening matter relating to the cause; as where an order is made in chancery, for the plaintiff to have an injunction to quit possession till the hearing of the cause. This order, not being final, is called interlocutory.
INTERLOPERS are properly those who, without due authority, hinder the trade of a company or corporation lawfully established, by dealing in the same way.
INTERLUDE, an entertainment exhibited on the theatre between the acts of a play, to amuse the spectators, or to give time for changing the scenes and decorations. In the ancient tragedy, the chorus sung the interludes, to show the intervals between the acts. Interludes, amongst us, usually consist of songs, dances, feats of activity, concerts of music, and the like. Aristotle and Horace lay it down as a rule, that the interludes should consist of songs founded on the principal parts of the drama; but since the chorus has been discontinued, dancers, buffoons, and such like performers, ordinarily furnish the interludes.
INTERMITTENT or Intermitting Fever, such fevers as go off and soon return again, in opposition to those which are continual.
INTERPOLATION, amongst critics, denotes a spurious passage inserted into the writings of some ancient author.

Interpolation, in the modern algebra, signifies to find an intermediate term of a series, its place in the series being given. This method was first invented by Mr Briggs, and applied by him to the calculation of logarithms.
INTERPOSITION, the situation of a body between two others, so as to hide them, or prevent their action.

The eclipse of the sun is occasioned by an interposition of the moon between the sun and the earth; and that of the moon by the interposition of the earth between the sun and moon.
INTERPRETER, a person who explains the thoughts, words, or writings, of some other. The word interpres, according to Isidore, is composed of the preposition inter, aηΛ partes, as signifying a person in the middle between two parties, to make them mutually understand each other’s thoughts; whilst others derive it from inter, and prces, fidejussor, that is, a person who serves as security between two others who do not understand each other.

There have been many and keen debates about interpreting Scripture. The Catholics contend that it belongs absolutely to the church; adding, that where she is silent, reason may be consulted, but where she speaks, reason is to be disregarded. The Protestants generally allow reason to be the sovereign judge or interpreter, though some amongst them have a strong regard to synods, and others to the authority of the primitive fathers. Lastly, there are those who have recourse to the spirit within every person to interpret for them, which is whatBochart calls απoδs∕ξ∕ς rou nviυμaτ(>ς.
INTERREGNUM, the time during which the throne is vacant in elective kingdoms; seeing that, in such as are hereditary, like ours, there is no such thing as an interregnum.
INTERREX, the magistrate who governs during an interregnum. This magistrate was established in ancient Rome, and was almost as old as the city itself. After the death of Romulus there was an interregnum of a year, during which the senators were interreges in their turn, five days each.

After the establishment of consuls and of a commonwealth, though there were no kings, yet the name and function of interrex was still preserved; for, when the magistrates were absent, or there was any irregularity in their election, or they had abdicated, so that the comitia could not be held, provided they were unwilling to create a dictator, they made an interrex, whose office and authority lasted five days, and after this they appointed another.

o the interrex was delegated all the regal and consular authority, and he performed all their functions. He assembled the senate, held comitia or courts, and took care that the election of magistrates was made according to rules. Indeed at first it was not the custom of the interrex to hold comitia, at least we meet with no instance of it in the Roman history. The patricians alone had the right of electing an interrex; but this office fell with the republic, when the emperors made themselves masters of everything.
INTERROGATION, Erotesis, a figure of rhetoric, in which the passion of the speaker introduces a thing by way of interrogation, to make its truth more conspicuous.

The interrogation is a kind of apostrophe which the speaker makes to himself; and it must be owned that this figure is suited to express most passions and emotions of the mind, and that it serves also to press and bear down an adversary, and generally adds an uncommon briskness, action, force, and variety, to discourse.

Interrogation, in Grammar, is a point which serves to distinguish those parts of a discourse, where the author speaks as if he were asking questions. Its form is this (?).
INTERSCENDENT, in Algebra, is applied to quantities, when the exponents of their powers are radical quantities. Thus, a ’ √ 2 , xsfi a , &c. are interscendent quantities.
INTERSECTION, in Mathematics, the cutting of one line or plane by another; or the point or line in which two lines or two planes cut each other.

The mutual intersection of two planes is a right line. The centre of a circle is in the intersection of two diameters. The central point of a regular or irregular figure of four sides, is the point of intersection of the two diagonals.

The equinoxes happen when the sun is in the intersections of the equator and ecliptic.
