"Certainly; as Sidney Graham says, he represents it very well. But he has made himself unpopular, his name has appeared in print as a guest at City banquets, where the food can't be kosher. He has alienated a goodly proportion of the Jewish vote." "Well?" said Mr. Goldsmith, still wonderingly. "Now is the time to bid for his shoes. Raphael Leon is about to establish a new Jewish paper.
Hence it was that in ancient times no complete history of Greece, through all her phases and stages, was ever attempted. The greatness of her later revolutions, simply as changes, would have attracted the historian; but, as changes associated with calamity and loss of power, they repelled his curiosity, and alienated his interest.
The old slave looked from one to the other sorrowfully, shook his head and slowly retired. "Remember what I said," Miss Lou called after him, and then sank back in her chair. Uncle Lusthah had to relate the result of his conference, and the consequence was an immediate outbreak of a reckless, alienated spirit. That afternoon the field hands paid no attention to Mr.
It is affirmed by many that it was his famous 7th of March speech which killed him, which disappointed his friends and alienated his constituents. I am therefore compelled to say something about that speech, and of his history at that time. Mr. Webster was doubtless an ambitious man. He aspired to the presidency. And why not?

It is a clumsy imitation of the policy of Frederick in 1756.
For they were meek men, especially Brusi; and, when Somarled died, though Einar wanted two shares for himself, and fought to retain them, he only wearied out his followers and alienated them by his cruelty. They, therefore, went over to Thorfinn in Caithness.
The Jews, inheriting their ancient enmity towards the Samaritans, avoid the country which the latter formerly possessed; while the Christians, alienated by the suspicion of heresy among their brethren at Nablous, prefer the more orthodox assemblies at Jerusalem and Nazareth. The Samaritans themselves do not exceed forty in number.
The idea of medical practice has become distasteful to him, and he has decided on devoting his life to discovery in chemical science. "And this is the man whom I married with the sincerest belief in the brilliant social career that was before him! For this contemptible creature I have sacrificed my position in the world, and alienated my father from me for ever.
But the peace of Aix-la-Chapelle left things substantially as they were before the war, and in 1752 a new arrangement unsatisfactory to both parties was made with Genoa.
