Jones, of London, a Chancellor's son, and a tailor's grandson, is justly Honorable, and entitled to be Lord Jones at his noble father's decease: but Mr. Brown, the senator from New York, is a silly upstart for tacking Honorable to his name, and our sturdy British good sense laughs at him.

Barbaro, Patriarch-elect of Aquileia, in the Church of S. Francesco della Vigna; in which he painted S. John baptizing Christ in the Jordan, in the air God the Father, at the foot two little boys who are holding the vestments of Christ, in the angles the Annunciation, and below these figures the semblance of a canvas superimposed, with a good number of little nude figures of Angels, Demons, and Souls in Purgatory, and with an inscription that runs "In nomine Jesu omne genuflectatur."
Ah! those were the names, madame 'Margota cum Turennio." Marguerite grew crimson. "Calumnies, sire!" cried she. "What calumnies?" replied he, with the most natural air possible.

Memoriae proditur, quasdam acies, inclinatas jam et labantes, a feminis restitutas, constantia precum et objectu pectorum et monstrata cominus captivitate, quam longe impatientius feminarum suarum nomine timent: adeo ut efficacius obligentur animi civitatum, quibus inter obsides puellae quoque nobiles imperantur.
His fear in some degree communicated itself to Captain Dalgetty, who began to repeat, in a sort of polyglot gibberish, all the exorcisms he had ever heard of, without being able to remember more than a word or two of each. "IN NOMINE DOMINI, as we said at Mareschal-College SANTISSMA MADRE DI DIOS, as the Spaniard has it ALLE GUTEN GEISTER LOBEN DEN HERRN, saith the blessed Psalmist, in Dr.

"My corum nomine beares such swaye," he boasts, "They'le sell their clothes my fees to pay."
And, lower-down. In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti. Amen.
