Thanks to Barras's suggestion, the dashing, reckless, insubordinate Murat, who first appears at the age of twenty-seven on the great stage in these events, had under Buonaparte's orders brought in the cannon from the camp of Sablons. These in the charge of a ready artillerist were invaluable, as the event proved.
The two had hardly exchanged a few low-pitched sentences when Bobby was summoned back to the telephone. "Is that Captain Little?" "Yes, sir." "Has your patrol come in?" "No, sir." Captain's Little's last answer was delivered in a distinctly insubordinate manner. Feeling slightly relieved, he returned to the firing-step.
Of course, when the animated machines did take to thinking for themselves, and to showing that they had done so, the Cordelier regarded it as most awkward and inconvenient a piece of insubordinate presumption that must be stamped out at once, and not suffered to infect others.
A few decided cases of this kind will effectually remove the evil I am considering. Another difficulty which is likely to attend the plan of allowing the pupils of a school to take some part in this way in the administration of it is that it may tend to make them insubordinate, so that they will, in many instances, submit with less good humor to such decisions as you may consider necessary.

Too often he has been nothing more than a ward politician of the commonest stamp, whose main purpose is to get all that is coming to him. His salary is small, but there are endless opportunities for graft. If any appeal from the agent's decisions, they are "kickers" and "insubordinate."
Likewise, I have heard him say that he would have the pleasure of assisting in hanging Monsieur Riel to a prairie poplar; and in putting tar and feathers upon his followers." "Has he been guilty of any acts of violence?" "He has been guilty of acts of violence. When he became unbearably insubordinate I found it my duty to put irons upon him. "That will do, Luc."
'Oh, all right, said Jack, who was a sweet-tempered boy, 'we won't do it again. And they went off to carry out their separate instructions, Clarence Tinling remaining by the cedar. 'I have to be a little sharp now and then, he explained. 'Why, if I didn't keep an iron rule over them, they'd be getting insubordinate in no time.
Shall I be thought wanting in patriotism, if I venture to doubt whether so simple an expedient would reduce to submission an insubordinate House of Representatives at Washington? Like everything else thoroughly English, speaking in the House of Commons is eminently practical. "The bias of the nation," says Mr. Emerson, "is a passion for utility."
