The prevailing opinion as to the beauty of the Jersey, is based on the general appearance of the cow when in milk no experiments in feeding exclusively for beef having been made public, and no opportunity to form a correct judgment from actual observation having been furnished; and it must be confessed that the general appearance of the breed would amply justify the hasty conclusion.
Such special limitation of the equity powers of our courts would be most unwise. It is true that some judges have misused this power; but this does not justify a denial of the power any more than an improper exercise of the power to call a strike by a labor leader would justify the denial of the right to strike.
Had he been supported by a friendly House he would have had to justify his policy, perhaps to modify it; as it was, since they were sure to refuse supplies whatever he did, one or two more votes of censure were a matter of indifference to him, and he went on his own way directing the diplomacy of the country with as sure and firm a hand as though no Parliament existed.
I did pay the man's election expenses; and, moreover, to tell the truth openly as I do not scruple to do to you, I am not prepared to state publicly the reason why I did so.

And how can man under such a moral code justify his dominion over land and sea? "Until recently this question has never squarely faced the human race, but it does face it now and to its glory and honor it is going to be answered right.
I expected afterwards something that would justify the hour, the place, the mystery, in a word, of our interview. What was my surprise to hear no syllable upon these points.
Peter, Paul, all Christians, live up to the Law. But that fact does not justify them. "For I know nothing by myself," says Paul, "yet am I not hereby justified." The nefarious opinion of the papists, which attributes the merit of grace and the remission of sins to works, must here be emphatically rejected.
Langham's coming to visit Olancho to inspect his new possessions was not a surprise to Clay. It had occurred to him as possible before, especially after the son had come to join them there.
