The great weakness and inability to voluntary motions, with the insensibility of the extremities, are owing to the general quiescence of the whole moving system; or, perhaps, simply to the deficient production of sensorial power. If all these symptoms are further increased, the quiescence of all the muscles, including the heart and arteries, becomes complete, and death ensues.

The Honourable Giles Henderson of Kingston has.. 440 The Honourable Humphrey Crewe of Leith has.... 336 The Honourable Adam B. Hunt of Edmundton has... 255 And there are three votes besides improperly made out! What the newspapers call indescribable excitement ensues.

Civilized man is really in auto-captivity. He is subjected to innumerable stimulations, but custom and convention frequently prevent physical action. When these stimulations are sufficiently strong but no action ensues, the reaction constitutes an emotion.

On the other hand, when this pain, of which I am now speaking, begins, our Lord seems to lay hold of the soul, and to throw it into a trance, so that there is no time for me to have any sense of pain or suffering, because fruition ensues at once.

With this send-off there ensues a wild chase and a hustle, pell-mell, higgledy-piggledy, each party striving to bowl the piece over the other's goal. These goals are several hundred yards apart. II, p. 433. The squaws assist in the performance by beating drums and keeping up a monotonous chant."

And our orders, in fact, were never to be seen at Labrador. This regulation I conformed to; but behold, one fine day, a schooner from our local station at St. Pierre Miquelon casts anchor alongside of me, and the following colloquy ensues between the lieutenant in command and myself: "Where are you going ?"
