Whom is there left of human race that I could hold such close intimacy with? No one. "Tanneguy du Châtel, ou es-tu!" . Worked five pages. June 13. I took a walk out last evening after tea, and called on Lord Chief-Commissioner and the Macdonald Buchanans, that kind and friendly clan. The heat is very great, and the wrath of the bugs in proportion.
"I am glad of that, sister. I am somewhat of the same opinion myself." "I rejoice to hear it," replied the lady, in a rather uneasy tone. "We have been delighted to hear of these frequent visits of yours to the Buchanans'. There is a strong attraction there, I fancy, Philip." "Joe Buchanan is the attraction to me there.
This interference was, doubtless, owing to the change of name, which seems to have given rise to the claim of the Earl of Athole and the Laird of Buchanan to muster the MacGregors under their banners, as Murrays or Buchanans. It does not appear that the petition of the MacGregors, to be permitted to come out in a body, as other clans, received any answer.
As to the former, they were not wholly without justification, for nearly all the English discussions of the "American Crisis" which we have seen have shown far more of the shop-keeping spirit than of interest in the maintenance of free institutions; but in regard to the latter they made the fatal mistake of believing our Buchanans, Cushings, and Touceys to be representative men.
But for the authoritative influence of General Scott, and the absence of any foresight and energy on the part of the administration, the rebels would be almost wholly without military leaders, without naval officers. The Johnsons, Magruders, Tatnalls, Buchanans, ought to have been arrested for treason the moment they announced their intention to resign. Mr.
Crimmins: "In the immediate vicinity were the country-seats of other prominent New Yorkers, such as the Buchanans, who were the forebears of the Goelets, the Adriance, Jones, and Beekman families, the Schermerhorns, Hulls, Setons, Towles, Willets, Lenoxes, Delafields, Primes, Rhinelanders, Lefferts, Hobbs, Rikers, Lawrences, and others.
In broad statesmanship, solid requirements, and effective eloquence, he stood above the successful mediocrity of his time the Buchanans and the Polks, the Franklin Pierces and the Winfield Scotts like a star of the first magnitude above the Milky Way.
Behold the two Buchanans! "One of these men is genius to the other Which is the natural man, And which the spirit? Who deciphers them?" Harry, to prevent the coming crisis, volunteers a confession, but invites you to a comparison of the heads.
And though it was not to see him change into a different creature, not to see him move on into a different category as he had changed and moved in the eyes of the Miss Buchanans he did gain in significance when, after a little while, he informed them of the new fact in his life the fact of millions.
I was much distressed to find that the last of the Macdonald Buchanans, a fine lad of about twenty-one, is now decidedly infected by the same pulmonary complaint which carried off his four brothers in succession. This is indeed a cruel stroke, and it is melancholy to witness the undaunted Highland courage of the father. I went to Court, and when I returned did some work upon the Tales.
