He was impressed with the superiority of Johnson, and his knocking everybody down in argument. C.R. Leslie's Recollections, i. 146. See Boswell's Hebrides, Sept. 28. See ante, i. 433, and ii. 217, 358. Johnson and Mrs. Dingley, to whom he knew that whatever befell him was interesting, and no accounts could be too minute.
It appeared that I had a good writing, and the Duke of Orleans needed another copyist in his office. The next morning I was engaged at a salary of twelve hundred francs. I came home for three days with my mother, and on the advice of the bird-catcher took a ticket at the lottery, which brought me 146 francs. And so, with a few bits of furniture from home, I took up my lodging in a Parisian garret.
Gotham Court, with its sixteen buildings, in which, many years before, a health inspector counted 146 cases of sickness, including "all kinds of infectious disease," was bought for $19,750, and Mullen's Court, adjoining, for $7251.
He was a man who courted criticism, and who was unenvious of the fame of rivals. Martial, xxx. 9. Ovid, Art. Anc. iii. 403. After Apelles, the art of painting declined, although great painters occasionally appeared, especially from the school of Sicyon, which was renowned for nearly two hundred years.

Having to take some observations and bring up an arrear of various other matters, I could not then visit that hill, though I wished much to do so. I found its latitude to be 30 degrees 11 minutes 15 seconds South, and longitude 146 degrees 16 minutes 9 seconds East.
The former bears a very close resemblance to the little island near Plymouth, whence it took its name: its latitude is 43 deg 48 min south, longitude 146 deg 25 min east of Greenwich. In running along shore, we cast many an anxious eye towards the land, on which so much of our future destiny depended.
I used to be on the Commercial there before I 146 began to travel for the publishing department of the concern. So you're Hilgarde's brother, and here I've run into you at the jumping-off place.
