The rest is left to the tribal levies. The Ranizai tribe receive an annual subsidy from the Indian Government of 30,000 rupees, out of which they maintain 200 irregulars armed with Sniders, and irreverently called by the British officers, "Catch-'em-alive-Os." These drive away marauders and discourage outrage and murder.
Requiescat in pace. I had almost irreverently said, "Rest, cat, in peace." It was at this period that the competition for accumulating money may be said to have commenced in Middle Georgia. Labor became in great demand, and the people began to look leniently upon the slave-trade. The marching of Africans, directly imported, through the country for sale, is a memory of sixty-five years ago.
Near the dome is a bronze statue of St. Peter, which seems to have a peculiar atmosphere of sanctity. People say their prayers before it by hundreds, and then kiss its toe, which is nearly worn away by the application of so many thousand lips. I saw a crowd struggle most irreverently to pay their devotion to it.
We shall have to train ivy on it and make it a feature of the landscape." "Or else," said David, savagely and irreverently "or else hew it in pieces before the Lord."

Half dead with cold and terror, the discomfited caricaturist stood shivering at his column, while his tormentor made unmercifully merry with him; twitting him with his amorous overtures, mocking his stammered prayers, and irreverently suggesting an appeal for aid to the beauty he so loved to delineate.
I used to speak irreverently of the declarations of the Srutis and address Brahmanas in domineering tones. I was an unbeliever, skeptical of everything, and though really ignorant, proud of my learning.

'Felix told me to read the Life of Christ, he said, not irreverently, 'and that it would show me He must be True. 'I hope and trust that so it may be, said Mr. Audley, more moved than he could bear to show, but with fervour in his voice far beyond his words.

The other one was a holy fright." "But the new one looks nice," said Lottie loyally. "She smiles all the time, and Miss Cooper never did. She always looked froze." "She must be like Miss Peyton.
This was what the quick sympathy of Jesus enabled Him to divine; and His compassion gushed forth towards those who were to be the chief sufferers.
