But the study of these objects still advances, and the great telescopes now in use could probably show at least twice as many of these objects as are contained in the list of Herschel, of which a new and enlarged edition has since been brought out by Dr. Dreyer.
"You're hired by the police to entice us round the corner, you sly fellow!" Pelle turned pale. "Peter Dreyer is lying in the factory with a bullet through his head," he repealed inexorably. "The police were going to arrest him, and he shot both the policeman and himself!"
The policemen crossed the street and separated outside the shop. One of them stood looking at the articles exhibited in the window for a little while, and then quickly entered the shop. "Is Peter Dreyer here?" he asked haughtily. "I'm he," answered Peter, withdrawing behind the counter. "But I advise you not to touch me! I can't bear the touch of a policeman's hands."
As all this official correspondence has been published in England, you may, upon reading the notes presented by Baron de Dreyer, and Mr. Livingstone, the neutral Ambassadors of Denmark and America, form some tolerably just idea of Talleyrand's formula. Their impolitic servility was blamed even by the other members of the diplomatic corps.
There was a peaceable strength in what he was doing that might carry them on a long way. Peter Dreyer acknowledged it himself by working so faithfully with him. It was only that he would not admit it. At first they had to stand a good deal, but by degrees Pelle learned to turn things off.
Peter Dreyer pointed silently from her to the people in the cafe. His face was distorted. "I've no objection to people enjoying life," said Pelle; "on the contrary, I'm glad to see that there are some who are happy. I hate the system, but not the people, you see, unless it were those who grudge us all anything, and are only really happy in the thought that others are in want."
"I think you know that I have already placed my fortune at the disposal of the poor," said Brun, in an offended tone, "and my manner of doing so will, I hope, some day justify itself. If I were to divide what I possess to-day among the unemployed, it would have evaporated like dew by to-morrow, so tremendous, unfortunately, is the want now." Peter Dreyer shrugged his shoulders.
Did it not sound foolish that the poor man, after a century's life in rags and discomfort, which ended in his entire effacement in collectivism, should now make his appearance with the strongest claim of all, and demand his soul back? Pelle recognized the impatience of the young men in this commotion. It was not for nothing that Peter Dreyer was the moving spirit at the meetings of the unemployed.
In illustration of this Dr. Dreyer tells us how, in the University of Wittenberg, one of the professors, in his opening address, was accustomed to point out that even the processes of multiplication and division in arithmetic might be learned by any student who possessed the necessary diligence.
"You're hired by the police to entice us round the corner, you sly fellow!" Pelle turned pale. "Peter Dreyer is lying in the factory with a bullet through his head," he repealed inexorably. "The police were going to arrest him, and he shot both the policeman and himself!"
