Cunard (West Virginia, United States) (search for this): article 8
." If you find his letters lying about, read them; if he tells you anything in confidence, publish it in a newspaper; keep on moving; go ahead; go into business; smash; recuperate; drink with everybody; talk dollars from sunrise to midnight. Do this, and the Americans will admire you, and you may admire them. They will say you are a "smart man," and at last you will be spoken of as a "remarkable" man. But if you pay your money and don't walk up to the booth; if you are nervous and not abashed, if rudeness pains and bestial manners disgust you if you strive to substitute temperate argument for frothy declamation, and national proof for impudent assertion; if you tell the truth and are modest and a gentleman — you can never hope for success in this young, adventurous and astonishing country. You had better "clear out" before you are "run out." You had better go home by the next Cunard steamer, for you are clearly not fitted for the institutions and people of the United States.
Fontenoy (Wisconsin, United States) (search for this): article 8
nch the spotted girl to see if it is real flesh, or only tights she has on; pick the kangaroo's pouch, make the pelican bleed again for your gratification You have paid your money, don't be imposed upon, halloo with stringent voice; curse and swear in a land where execrations are rife; brag louder than the greatest braggadocios in the world. If need be lie — lie with face of brass and lungs of leather; crack up your own country, to the detriment of all others; vow that we won the battle of Fontenoy; swear that Peter Morrison was the greatest philanthropist of the age; declare that Mr. Roebuck is ninety feet high. If a man spits on your boot spit on his waistcoat, and then "guess that you did not aim low enough." If you find his letters lying about, read them; if he tells you anything in confidence, publish it in a newspaper; keep on moving; go ahead; go into business; smash; recuperate; drink with everybody; talk dollars from sunrise to midnight.

msy form, that which John Leech is doing every week, and gracefully and wittily, with the pencil; and if the offence of making money at our own expense were indeed rank, the humble individual who indites these lines would have been clapped into the pillory and egged and stoned to death many years since. But, Mr. Hawthorne, if the British mater families be fond of good cheer, she has at least-something to show for it. Her appearance does credit to her feeding and breeding. The Cokes of Holkham, that Babrahams, would have found much comfort in her condition. There are blood and bone there as well as flesh; symmetry as well as weight; muscle rather than surplusage of adipose matter. But what physical return do your ladies make for the goods the gods provide? Do they thrive on their abundant provender? Does the enormous quantity of sold food they consume do them any good? Yankee men and Women. I grant the prettiness of your very young girls; they are really trim little
Nebraska (Nebraska, United States) (search for this): article 8
uch pity on the Philadelphia maid, and with much amazement at the state of things in which her public antics could be possible, when a voice, very familiar to me struck upon my ear, and I found my self in close proximity to the irrepressible George Francis Train. As unabashed as voluble, as incoherent as ever, the speculator who thought that by means of champagne and lobster salad he could force horse railroads upon the London public, has turned up at Willard's. The other day he was in Nebraska, "stumping" that territory in the interest of the Pacific Railroad. They say that he has been "operating" largely in gold, and winning as largely, and that he intends returning to England, with many hundreds of thousands of dollars, to recommence his campaign in trainways. He had better let them alone. He must have had enough of England, and England has surely had enough of George Francis Train. He spoke of his escapade at Boston with much nonchalance and self possession. He spoke

sposed and the prison keepers be put in prison, and insanity have the charge of sanity. You will excuse me for quoting a bard who is considered by many of his brethren to be himself as mad as a March hare, but there is much method and not a little wisdom in "Wait. Whitman, one of the roughs, a cosmos, disorderly, fleshly, sensual," who lounges and loafs at his ease, and sounds his "barbaric yawp over the roofs of the world." Nathaniel Hawthorne. Mr. Nathaniel Hawthorne, of Concord, Mass., author of "The Scarlet Letter," "The House with the Seven Gables," "Transformation," and many other charming and deservedly popular works, when you took upon yourself to hold up to obloquy and ridicule our English matrons — to sneer at their "streakiness" and "beefiness," and to allude, not very delicately, to the large space of their Maker's footstool they occupied when they sat down — there were those who thought you did a stupid and an ill mannered thing. But let that pass. We
United States (United States) (search for this): article 8
Finally, Miss Dickinson is said to "have shoved to, with her Lilly white hand, the doors of the Supreme Court of the United States, as at present constituted, and to have forbidden the adjudication therein of the proclamation of freedom to the slavwell the number of her auditors. Either all this means something or nothing. If the Legislative Assembly of the United States is to be considered in the eyes of the world a mere mountebank's booth, and the Senators and Representatives only so e admission that he had been tarred and feathered, and he yet cherished the hope of becoming one day President of the United States. A remarkable man is George Francis Train; perhaps "one of the most remarkable men in the country." He will go fcess in this young, adventurous and astonishing country. You had better "clear out" before you are "run out." You had better go home by the next Cunard steamer, for you are clearly not fitted for the institutions and people of the United States.

feet of the North, and its epitaph is traced with the point of a bayonet dipped in the young blood of the nation. " There are other little items for which Miss Anna Dickinson is understood to have made a "statesmanlike demand." She requires that the "territory wrenched back from the rebellion be used to 'underlay' the development of the blacks in America into full citizen ship, with the ownership in fee of agricultural land." Finally, Miss Dickinson is said to "have shoved to, with her Lilly white hand, the doors of the Supreme Court of the United States, as at present constituted, and to have forbidden the adjudication therein of the proclamation of freedom to the slaves of rebels." Yes, this is the burden of Miss Dickinson's chant, and of the faction of which she is the mouth piece. She does not advocate nor ask for anything more preposterous than they do. Blood, blood, blood ! dominion, spoliation and confiscation ! She will be content with nothing less. It is one of t

my presence in a very slow and superstitious manner. I waited, and waited, and waited, but no tea, no toast, no egg, no bacon came. There was sitting opposite to me a dapper little man with a large beard and embroidered shirt front, with diamond studs, cut velvet vest, and a pea jacket. "Here, you," he cried to the nearest Ethiop, "bring me some fried oysters, some stewed oysters, some tenderloin steak and onions, some scrambled eggs, pork cutlets, some fish balls, some dipped toast, some Graham bread, some mashed turnips, some cold ham, some buckwheat cakes, some hot coffee, and some plane mange. I've paid my money, and by — I mean to see the show!" The only way to get on in America is, having once paid your money, to insist on seeing the show. If you don't the people will think you are mean spirited, and trample on you. See it; see the show; have the animals stirred up with the long pole; pinch the spotted girl to see if it is real flesh, or only tights she has on; pick the

art man," significantly tapped his forehead as he spoke. Lunacy. Cela n'empes hepas. Lunacy in an American politician does not seem to count, and we may be approaching the dark millennium foreshadowed by the poet of the "roughs," Wait. Whitman; the time when there is to be nothing but "money, business, railroad, exports, imports, custom precedents, pallor, dyspepsia, smut, ignorance, and unbelief;" when judges and criminals shall be transposed and the prison keepers be put in prison, and insanity have the charge of sanity. You will excuse me for quoting a bard who is considered by many of his brethren to be himself as mad as a March hare, but there is much method and not a little wisdom in "Wait. Whitman, one of the roughs, a cosmos, disorderly, fleshly, sensual," who lounges and loafs at his ease, and sounds his "barbaric yawp over the roofs of the world." Nathaniel Hawthorne.

to sneer at their "streakiness" and "beefiness," and to allude, not very delicately, to the large space of their Maker's footstool they occupied when they sat down — there were those who thought you did a stupid and an ill mannered thing. But let that pass. We are not angry with you, dear Mr. Hawthorne. We like your books too well; and, besides, if you laughed at us, are we not always laughing at our-selves? You have but done with the pen, in some what of a clumsy form, that which John Leech is doing every week, and gracefully and wittily, with the pencil; and if the offence of making money at our own expense were indeed rank, the humble individual who indites these lines would have been clapped into the pillory and egged and stoned to death many years since.
