Excerpt from Memoirs, Vol. 2 of 2 There was a morning paper in Philadelphia which grieved me sore by pilfering my news items as I wrote them. SO I one day gave a marvellous account of the great Volatile Chelidonian or Flying Turtle of Surinam, of which a specimen had just arrived in New York. It had a shell as of diamonds blent with emeralds and rubies, and bat-like wings of iridescent hue surpassing the opal, and a tail like a serpent. Our contemporary, nothing doubting, at once published this as original matter in a letter from New York, and had to bear the responsibility. But I did not invest my inventiveness wisely; I should have shared the idea with Barnum. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Memoir and Remains, Vol. 2 of 2 Regarding the style of the book, no words of praise seem excessive for its finish and pre cision. It is written with singular quietude, with the most entire negation of the merely rhetorical; but each word, each phrase, is selected with perfect judgment, is the fittest that could be found for the expression of the thought which it carries. Evidently this strange and beautiful book is one to whose production many hours Of patient labour have been unsparingly given, - and given wisely, for they have turned it into an exquisitely polished work of art.

Excerpt from A Writer's Recollections, Vol. 2 But did not the protracted agonies of a nation deserve the tribute of a tear? As Paine asked, were men to weep over the plumage and forget the dying bird? It was no idle abstraction, no metaphysical right of man for which the French cried, but only the practical right of bring permitted, by their own toil, to save them selves and the little ones about their knees from hunger and cruel death.

Excerpt from Memoir and Remains, Vol. 1 of 2 This little book is the outcome of a desire on the part of his friends for some per manent memorial of thelife and work of one who was not only regarded by them with feelings of high esteem, but whose attractive personality inspired warm affec tion in those who knew him best. The few pages which deal with his biography are the brief record of a career cut short before it had attained the plenitude of its power: still, there was more than promise; there was performance of a very substantial kind, performance which would certainly have led to wider recognition and higher preferment had life been spared.

Excerpt from Memoir and Correspondence of Mrs. Grant of Laggan, Vol. 2 of 3: Author of "Letters From the Mountains," "Memoirs of an American Lady," Etc My dear Bar, I am this morning informed of your great misfortune in the death of your brother; and I do not write to bid you grieve less. Religion, the only sure medicine of hurt minds, is yours; tender and generous feelings for others are also yours, which do not permit the mind to settle in solitary sorrow, while so many others are, as it were, purified by fire in the furnace of affliction. Imagination is also yours - that active faculty mercifully bestowed by a gracious Providence as a counterbalance to the evils arising from too keen sensibility; and - though last, not least - the invaluable privilege of retaining the consoling remembrance that every possible tribute of affection has been paid to the lamented dead.

Excerpt from Memoirs, Vol. 2 Haldane added a curious fact to my knowledge of the means taken at different times to bring to an end the official life of Lord Wolverhampton. Two years ago, when Asquith became Prime Minister, Lord Morley, by arrangement, suggested to Sir H. Fowler, as he then was, that the time had come for both of them to tender their resignations, knowing Of course that his would not be accepted. Whether the old man smelt a rat or not I do not know, but at any rate he refused to walk into the trap so artfully laid.
