Nowhere else in the world, we venture to say, were such extensive, costly and persistent efforts put forth in the transplantation of any wild foreign species as the old U.S. Fish Commission, under Prof. Spencer F. Baird, put forth in the introduction of the German carp into the fresh water ponds, lakes and rivers of the United States.
"You don't say! But Roger, he ran away leastways e went off to furrin parts and we 'eard as 'ow 'e'd married an Heyetalian young lady out there. And you are really Roger Gibbs' bairn?" "Yes; he married my mother an Italian girl in Naples. I was born there. But they're both dead now," said Toni sadly. "Oh, I'm sorry to 'ear that!" Mrs. Spencer spoke sincerely.
May his 'works' rest in oblivion!... "In dismissing Spencer, it is worthy of note that the very thing which made him pause in the righting of social wrongs is the thing which will cause the Revolution, namely, the complicated nature of social falsehoods.
Herbert Spencer have served to connect this feeling with the primeval worship of ancestors and with the savage customs of totemism. The worship of ancestors seems to have been every where the oldest systematized form of fetichistic religion.
We felt it and the Senator was worried I knew, but held his peace. He knew how to keep his opinions until the hour had struck that summoned them to service. The Senator never played with his lance. By and by Spencer openly sounded the note of conflict. The most welcome year of my life dawned on the first of January, 1844.
We are "purified by terror and by pity." The largest wisdom and the finest insight of our age are blended in Tennyson's "In Memoriam."

Its atmosphere is wholly modern.
Suppose he was told now about Graham Spencer and Anna, and beat the girl and was jailed for it? Besides, ugly as Rudolph's suspicions were, they were as yet only suspicions. He decided to wait until he could bring Herman proof of Graham Spencer's relations with Anna. When that time came he knew Herman. He would be clay for the potter. He, Rudolph, intended to be the potter.
You are not from my old friends Spencer & Miles, are you?" "Spencer & Miles," the young man repeated thoughtfully. "Woollen firm in London Wall," Mr. Coulson added. "I know they wanted to see me directly I arrived, and they did say something about sending to the station." The young man shook his head, and assumed at the same time his most engaging manner. "Why, no, sir!" he admitted.
"You couldn't have been quite as miserable as I was," said Spencer earnestly. "You were everything absolutely everything to me. Other men have little rills and driblets of affection for sisters and cousins and aunts, but everything in me went out to you. Do you remember you told me the first time we met that love would be a revelation to me? It has been more. It has been a new gospel.
These examples will suffice to show the nature and purpose of these councils of Kuges and Daimios. Let us next consider how these councils originated. The political development of Japan gives another illustration of one of the truths which Mr. Herbert Spencer unfolds in his Principles of Sociology.
