James Parton, The life of Horace Greeley, Chapter 26: three months in Europe. (search)
oned. The omission gave him an opportunity to retort upon the London Times its assertion, that with the English press, fidelity in reporting is a religion. The speech was written out by Mr. Greeley himself, and published in the Tribune. It must be confessed, that the graduate of a Vermont printing-office made a creditable appearance before the lords and gentlemen. The sights in and about London seem to have made no great impression on the mind of Horace Greeley. He spent a day at Hampton Court, which he oddly describes as larger than the Astor House, but less lofty and containing fewer rooms. Westminstor Abbey appeared to him a mere barbaric profusion of lofty ceilings, stained windows, carving, graining, and all manner of contrivances for absorbing labor and money— waste, not taste; the contortions of the sybil without her inspiration. The part of the building devoted to public worship he thought less adapted to that purpose than a fifty-thousand dollar church in New York.

n with the Duc, who took down nearly two hundred curious books to show me, concerning some of which—Spanish—I made notes. Then we came back to the ladies, who were now settled at their needlework in the salon, which opened on the beautiful lawn, while the Duc, the Prince, and I sat before the door, and enjoyed an uncommonly nice cigar and much agreeable gossip. But there is an end to everything human, and I brought this to an end a little sooner than I otherwise should have done, but Hampton Court is not far off, and I wanted very much to see it. . . . . My only object—so to speak—was the cartoons; I walked, therefore, hardly looking to the right or left, through twenty-four rooms lined with pictures of all sorts, good and bad, many blank spaces indicating that some of the better had been sent to Manchester, and at last, through crowds of people,—amounting, I should think, to nearly a thousand, —reached the somewhat ill-lighted room, built expressly for the cartoons by Sir C

e made for me to write, had I but leisure; it is for that I look to a second stay in London, since several topics came before me on which I wished to write and publish there. I became acquainted with a gentleman who is intimate with all the English artists, especially Stanfield and Turner, but was only able to go to his house once, at this time. Pictures I found but little time for, yet enough to feel what they are now to be to me. I was only at the Dulwich and National Galleries and Hampton Court. Also, have seen the Vandykes, at Warwick; but all the precious private collections I was obliged to leave untouched, except one of Turner's, to which I gave a day. For the British Museum, I had only one day, which I spent in the Greek and Egyptian Rooms, unable even to look at the vast collections of drawings, &c. But if I live there a few months, I shall go often. O, were life but longer, and my strength greater! Ever I am bewildered by the riches of existence, had I but more time t
d the disappointed archbishop, the vipers are so many. But James was not as yet fully conscious of their strength. While he was in his progress to London, more than seven hundred of them presented the millenary petition for a redress of ecclesiastical grievances. He was never disposed to show them Chap. VIII.} favor; but a decent respect for the party to which he had belonged, joined to a desire of displaying his talents for theological debate, induced him to appoint a conference at Hampton Court. The conference, held in January, 1604, was dis- 1604. tinguished on the part of the king by a strenuous vindication of the church of England. Refusing to discuss the question of its power in things indifferent, he substituted authority for argument, and where he could not produce conviction, demanded obedience: I will have none of that liberty as to ceremonies; I will have one doctrine, one discipline, one religion in substance and in ceremony. Never speak more to that point, how
Patriotic Sacrifices --There is an anecdote told of De Johnston and the actor Garrick, which, in times like the present, when patriotism calls for sacrifice, often intrudes itself upon our memory. It is said that the great of the vanity of wealth, invited Johnston to visit him at Hampton Court. The sturdy philosopher accepted the invitation of his friend, and the latter led the way through his fine house and gardens, and, after showing his possessions, turned to see what effect they had upon Johnston "Ah! David, David," exclaimed the latter, "these are the things that make and attached terrible!" As often as he anecdote his recurred to us, we have thought that such are the things which make patriotism difficult. It is hard to exchange the downy uch for the wetted ground, beneath a leaky tent. It is hard to leave the well-filled service of plate for the rough and scanty ration; but as the Christian can leave without a sigh all for Heaven, so can the men of true heart leave
