"I will undertake," said the captain-general Vivés to my colleague Rodriguez, "to give an order to the commander of the fortress, that when the right moment arrives, he shall allow M. Arago, and even the two or three other Frenchmen who are with him in the castle of Belver, to pass out.

The Florida treaty had not yet been ratified, for reasons best known to His Majesty the King of Spain, and the new Spanish Minister, General Vives, had just arrived in the United States to ask for certain explanations. The Administration had every reason at this moment to wish to avoid further causes of irritation to Spanish pride.

At what time, the old woman, drawing from her bosome, a wreath of many colours, bound my neck; and having mixt spittle and dust, she dipt her finger in't, and markt my fore-head, whether I wou'd or not. When this part of the charm was over, she made me spit thrice, and as often prest to my bosom enchanted stones, that she had wrapt in purple; Admotisque manibus temptare coepit inguinum vives.

"As to Suarez, it will be enough to refer to Disp. xv. sec. 2, No. 9, p. 508, t.i. edition Vivés, Paris; also Nos. 13 15. Many other references to the same effect could easily be given, but these may suffice.

"Don't cry, Yacob," cried Joost, coming to his master's side and shaking him by the shoulder. "You can get oder vives some day besser as dese, yes!" "Joost, I can't help crying I can't. Ven I t'ink how I got to kill dem yet! I hates to kill vimmens." They permitted him to weep and swear for a few minutes.

The Captain-General Vivés only saved his life by shutting him up in the strong castle of Belver. They then bethought themselves of the Frenchman established on the Clop de Galazo, and formed a popular expedition to go and seize him.

«On voit très-bien du haut du Cramont que cette partie de la base n'est point du granit; sa couleur est d'un brun rougeâtre, elle ne se termine point par des arrêtes vives et nettes, n'est point composée de grandes tables planes. Ce font cependant des feuillets pyramidaux, mais petits et pressés les unes contre les autres;

Fiamne dives? Fies. Vivamne invidendus? Vives. Moriarne in lecto meo? Ita." It was asked: Shall I find it? Answer: Thou shalt. Shall I become rich? Thou wilt. Shall I live an object of envy? Thou wilt. Shall I die in my bed? "A good specimen of the treasure-hunter's record quite reminds one of Mr. Minor-Canon Quatremain in 'Old St. Paul's," was Dennistoun's comment, and he turned the leaf.

Augustine urges, of having seen a man who could command his rear to discharge as often together as he pleased, Vives, his commentator, yet further fortifies with another example in his time, of one that could break wind in tune; but these cases do not suppose any more pure obedience in that part; for is anything commonly more tumultuary or indiscreet?

He told Vives in unmistakable language that the United States could not subscribe to "new engagements as the price of obtaining the ratification of the old." Certainly the United States would not comply with the Spanish demand and pledge itself "to form no relations with the pretended governments of the revolted provinces of Spain."
