The trial before the Military Commission in Cincinnati, just concluded, was in many respects one of the most remarkable events of the war. The investigation has elicited testimony of the most startling character, showing conclusively to the minds of all reasonable men who have given to it careful, earnest attention that there was a most formidable, deep and well arranged conspiracy, which, but for timely discovery and judicious action, would have resulted most disastrously, [more]

I am a woman, but it is always ‘I’, which shall decide for me ‘How I Am A Woman’ and not the populist generic identities. Womanhood is a blessing but what ‘I’ accept ‘womanhood’ and ‘empowerment’ as, is definitively a conscious-judicious enterprise of ‘power’ I acquire through personal initiatives. Man or woman, I’m always a good, amicable, honest, sincere and compassionate person, transcending generic identities. Identity as a woman matters, but personality defines me as a person and constructs my wellness and excellence. ‘How I Am’ matters more for me than ‘Who I Am’ as I am an empowered woman, not in emotional-reactive, but objectively logical way.

Fellow-Citizens Of The Senate And House Of Representatives: We Have Reason To Renew The Expression Of Our Devout Gratitude To The Giver Of All Good For His Benign Protection. Our Country Presents On Every Side The Evidences Of That Continued Favor Under Whose Auspices It, Has Gradually Risen From A Few Feeble And Dependent Colonies To A Prosperous And Powerful Confederacy. We Are Blessed With Domestic Tranquillity And All The Elements Of National Prosperity. The Pestilence Which, Invading For A Time Some Flourishing Portions Of The Union, Interrupted The General Prevalence Of Unusual Health Has Happily Been Limited In Extent And Arrested In Its Fatal Career. The Industry And Prudence Of Our Citizens Are Gradually Relieving Them From The Pecuniary Embarrassments Under Which Portions Of Them Have Labored; Judicious Legislation And The Natural And Boundless Resources Of The Country Have Afforded Wise End Timely Aid To Private Enterprise, And The Activity Always Characteristic Of Our People Has Already In A Great Degree Resumed Its Usual And Profitable Channels.

The Slavery Of The Negroes Having, Of Late, Drawn The Attention Of Many Serious Minded people; Several Tracts Have Been Published setting forth Its Inconsistency With Every Christian And Moral Virtue, Which It Is Hoped will Have Weight With The Judicious; Especially At A Time When The Liberties Of Mankind Are Become So Much The Subject Of General Attention. For The Satisfaction Of The Serious Enquirer Who May Not Have The Opportunity Of Seeing those Tracts, And Such Others Who Are Sincerely Desirous That The Iniquity Of This Practice May Become Effectually Apparent, To Those In whose Power, It May Be To Put A Stop To Any Farther Progress Therein; It Is Proposed, Hereby, To Republish The Most Material Parts Of Said Tracts; And In order To Enable The Reader To Form A True Judgment Of This Matter, Which, Tho' So Very Important, Is Generally Disregarded, Or So Artfully Misrepresented by Those Whose Interest Leads Them To Vindicate It, As To Bias The Opinions [more]

Modern History Tends More And More To Become Philosophic: To Be An Argument And An Interpretation, Rather Than A Bald Statement Of Facts. The Facts Contained in our Best Histories Bear Much The Same Relation To The History Itself, That The Flesh And Bones Of The Body Bear To The Person Who Lives In and By Them. The Flesh And Bones, Or The Facts, Have To Exist; But The Only Excuse For Their Existence Is, That The Person May Have Being, Or That The History May Trace A Spiritual Growth Or Decadence. There Was Perhaps A Time When The Historian Found A Difficulty In Collecting Facts Enough To Serve As A Firm Foundation For His Edifice Of Comment And Deduction; But Nowadays, His Embarrassment Is Rather In the Line Of Making a Judicious Selection From The Enormous Mass Of Facts Which Research And The Facilities Of Civilization Have Placed at His Disposal. Not Only Is Every Contemporary Event Recorded instantly In the Newspapers And Elsewhere; But New Light Is Being Constantly Thrown Upon The Past, Even Upon The Remotest Confines Thereof. Some Of The Facts Thus Brought Before Us Are Original And Vital; Others Are Mere Echoes, Repetitions, And Unimportant Variations. [more]

The Island Of Newfoundland, Which Is The Tenth Largest In The World, Is About 1640 Miles Distant From Ireland, And Of All The American Coast Is The Nearest Point To The Old World. Its Relative Position In The Northern Hemisphere May Well Be Indicated By Saying That The Most Northern Point At Belle Isle Strait Is In The Same Latitude As That Of Edinburgh, Whilst St. John's, Near The Southern Extremity, Lies In The Same Latitude As That Of Paris. Strategically It Forms The Key To British North America. St. John's Lies About Half-Way Between Liverpool And New York, So That It Offers A Haven Of Refuge For Needy Craft Plying Between England And The American Metropolis. The Adjacent Part Of The Coast Is Also The Landing-Place For Most Of The Transatlantic Cables: It Was At St. John's, Too, That The First Wireless Ocean Signals Were Received. From The Sentimental Point Of View Newfoundland Is The Oldest Of The English Colonies, For Our Brave Fishermen Were Familiar With Its Banks At A Time When Virginia And New England Were Given Over To Solitude And The Redskin. Commercially It Is The Centre Of The Most Bountiful Fishing Industry In The World, And The Great Potential Wealth Of Its Mines Is Now Beyond Question. On All These Grounds The Story Of The Colony Is One With Which Every Citizen Of Greater Britain Should Be Familiar. The Historians Of The Island Have Been Capable And In The Main Judicious, And To The Works Of Reeves, Bonnycastle, Pedley, Hatton, Harvey, And Above All Chief Justice Prowse, And More Recently To J.D. Rogers,[1] Every Writer On Newfoundland Must Owe Much. Of Such Elaborate Work A Writer In The Present Series May Say With Virgil's Shepherd, "Non Invideo, Miror Magis"; For Such A One Is Committed Only To A Sketch, Made Lighter By Their Labours, Of The Chief Stages In The Story Of Newfoundland.

Religious Liberty Work in the Central Union Conference A BRIEF report and summary of the religious liberty work in the Central Union Conference the past winter, including the effort put forth in the legislature at Jefferson City, Mo., last April, may not be uninteresting to readers of the REVIEW. Sunday bills were introduced in all of the legislatures of our territory, with the exception of Wyoming; and though Sunday rest associations and individual advocates have urged their adoption, we are glad to ‘be ‘able to say that all of these bills have failed of adoption, nearly all being defeated in committee. Missouri had .the largest number of bills of any single State,— six in all,— and these were defeated. With the exception of a hearing granted Mrs. Wightman and the writer by a committee at Jefferson City, there were no public hearings. It is quite certain that newspaper correspondence upon the subject of Sunday legislation, private letters of protest, the judicious use of religious liberty literature, and direct personal work with the representatives of the people, have, altogether, ‘been effectual in halting further Sunday legislation in the Central Union Conference territory. From the reports I have received from the State secretaries from time to time, I am sure vigorous efforts have been put forth by them, and that signal success has attended these efforts. At Jefferson City, Mo., April 10, a resolution was offered in the House of Representatives granting Mrs. Wight- man the privilege of using the House of Representatives Hall on the evening of April 12. The night was exceedingly disagreeable, yet a large number of the legislators and senators were present. They listened with marked attention, and frequently applauded points of the lecture. [more]
