Therein also will be seen the answer to the consultation addressed to his successor in the command, Don Mariano Fernandez de Folgueras, under date of April 25, 1809, in which he most earnestly beseeches the king to endeavor, by every possible means, to send out religious missionaries; deploring the decline and want of order he had observed with his own eyes in the towns administered by native clergymen, and pointing out the urgent necessity of intrusting the spiritual government of these provinces to the dexterous management of the former.
Mariano lay near them, heavily laden with irons, and also endeavouring to eat. "Friends," said Bacri, approaching them. "Villain!" cried Mariano, starting up into a reclining attitude, despite the agony that the act occasioned, and fixing his eyes on the Jew. "You do me injustice, young man," said Bacri, seating himself on the basement of a pillar.
At Mazaro, the mouth of a creek communicating with the Quillimane or Kilimane River, the expedition heard that the Portuguese were at war with a half-caste named Mariano, a brother of Bonga, who had built a stockade near the mouth of the Shire, and held possession of all the intermediate country.
This was not difficult, for they were both young and active, while Francisco was middle-aged and rather heavy. "Stay a moment, boy," cried the bluff padrone, as they tolled up the rather steep ascent of the valley. Mariano stopped. "Come on, father; they are overhauling us." "I know it, boy," said Francisco, taking Mariano by the shoulders and kissing his forehead. "Go thou; run!

The priest declared that a boy like that shouldn't waste his youth in the shabby, tumble-down village of Reus he should go to Barcelona and receive instruction in art.
"With pleasure," said General Vallejo; and he, also, shook hands. He was older than Colonel Frémont, was General Mariano Guadalupe Vallejo, and even more commanding in his appearance. His face was large and dignified, in its black beard, his forehead was high and broad, and his dark eyes piercing. Mr. Grigsby introduced Charley, and they both shook hands with him.
Don't go into a rage; don't shout. You aren't to blame, poor Mariano It was a mistake for us to marry." She excused him gently with a kindness that seemed not of this world, generously passing over the cruelty and selfishness of a life she was about to leave.
I think I am living alone with you and when I look at you, the house is peopled with women that surround me, that fill everything and mock at me; all fair, like children of the devil all naked, like temptations.
