Stran 29 - This law of nature being coeval with mankind, and dictated by God himself, is of course superior in obligation to any other. It is binding over all the globe, in all countries, and at all times ; no human laws are of any validity, if contrary to this; and such of them as are valid derive all their force, and all their authority, mediately or immediately, from this original.
Stran 460 - Pacific homes, humbly trusting that the day is not far distant when we may pass from the north to the south, from the east to the west of our western possessions without fear or danger, and behold in every man a brother.
Stran 674 - Tender-handed stroke a nettle, And it stings you for your pains ; Grasp it like a man of mettle, And it soft as silk remains. ' 'Tis the same with common natures, Use them kindly, they rebel ; But be rough as nutmeg-graters, And the rogues obey you welL
Stran 286 - So, naturalists observe, a flea Has smaller fleas that on him prey; And- these have smaller still to bite 'em, And so proceed ad infinitum.
Stran 429 - And, in my mind, he was guilty of no error, — he was chargeable with no exaggeration, — he was betrayed by his fancy into no metaphor, who once said, that all we see about us, King, Lords, and Commons, the whole machinery of the State, all the apparatus of the system, and its varied workings, end in simply bringing twelve good men into a box.
Stran 211 - ... no thief, burglar, incendiary or assassin, shall escape punishment, either by the quibbles of the law, the insecurity of prisons, the carelessness or corruption of the police, or a laxity of those who pretend to administer justice.
Stran 151 - A rush, a struggle, and the Mexican, bound hand and foot, lay on his back in the bar-room. The camp turned out to a man. Happily such cries as 'String him up!
Stran 382 - Vigilance for the protection of the lives and property of the citizens and residents of the City of San Francisco.
Stran 151 - The noise outside in the bar-room by and by died away into complete silence, but from afar down the canon came confused sounds as of disorderly cheering. They came nearer, and again the light-hearted noise of human laughter mingled with clinking glasses around the bar. A low knock at the jury door; the lock burst in, and a dozen smiling fellows asked the verdict. A foreman promptly answered,
Stran 142 - Ignude tutte e con sembiante offeso. Questi si percotean, non pur con mano, Ma con la testa e col petto e co' piedi , Troncandosi coi denti a brano a brano.
