From whom can come so many disgraces heaped upon her head, if not from him? He alone could have transmitted to Lord de Winter all these frightful secrets which he has discovered, one after another, by a train of fatalities. He knows her brother-in-law. He must have written to him. What hatred she distills!
The Emperor, enraged at the first positive disgraces which had ever befallen his arms, and foreseeing that unless the Spanish insurrection were crushed ere the Patriots had time to form a regular government and to organise their armies, the succours of England, and the growing discontents of Germany, might invest the task with insurmountable difficulties, determined to cross the Pyrenees in person, at the head of a force capable of sweeping the whole Peninsula clear before him "at one fell swoop."
It is to be hoped that his subsequent merits will be as promptly rewarded, by his dismissal from a bench which he disgraces and defiles by his presence. No. Anecdotes. As we mounted our horses to proceed to Amherst, groups of country people were to be seen standing about Pugnose's inn, talking over the events of the morning, while others were dispersing to their several homes.
"No," Lulu said, "I couldn't help that. And I couldn't help his other wife, either." "Bigamy," said Dwight, "that's a crime." "I've done no crime," said Lulu. "Bigamy," said Dwight, "disgraces everybody it touches." "Even Di," Lulu said. "Lulu," said Dwight, "on Di's account will you promise us to let this thing rest with us three?" "I s'pose so," said Lulu quietly. "You will?" "I s'pose so."
"Who'd believe you were my husband, calling me disgraces, and things? No one would think there was any affection between us, going on like that. And me with one side of me useless, and a fatty heart, as the doctor told me plainly, and said I was to take the greatest care. And who should take care of me if my own husband doesn't?
To the Chancellor, whom he believed to be his supporter, he represented the discredit which he suffered he was a common gaze and a speech;" "the little reputation which by his industry he gathered, being scattered and taken away by continual disgraces, every new man coming above me;" and his wife and his wife's friends were making him feel it.
Almost every other vice that disgraces human nature, may be kept in countenance by applause and association.
Among these the following items were of the greatest interest: Steps are being taken by the government toward the erection of a fence around the court house grounds. Judge Graney is contemplating a lawn and flowers. When these improvements are completed there will be no comparison between our court house and the dilapidated hovel which disgraces the county seat of Colfax.
Would not one think that these incongruous mementos had been gathered together as a lesson to living greatness? to show it, even in the moment of its proudest exaltation, the neglect and dishonor to which it must soon arrive how soon that crown which encircles its brow must pass away, and it must lie down in the dust and disgraces of the tomb, and be trampled upon by the feet of the meanest of the multitude.
Her disgraces proved too much for her father, who blew out his brains. The successor secured extradition papers in all the leading capitals of the world. The story was the sensation of the day; the newspapers made much of it. All governments offered to assist the republic in hounding down this rascal. To whatever country he belonged, that country promised to disown him."
