And the Chippewyan takes up the story of life where the Cree left off. Nearer the Arctic his canoe becomes a skin kaiak, his face is still broader, Ms eyes like a Chinaman's, and writers of human history call him Eskimo. The Johnsons, once they started, did not stop at any particular point.
When the Van Rensselaers are too good for the Putnams of Tribes Hill I'll eat my spurs! and then he laughed till he cried." "They never came again; nobody of quality ever came; nobody ever comes," said Ruyven. "Excepting the Johnsons and the Butlers," corrected Sammy. "And then everybody geths tight; they were here lath night and Uncle Varick is sthill abed," said little Benny, innocently.
Do not follow your mother's example in one respect, that is, do not think very highly of yourself and very meanly of other people; but rather reverse it think meanly of yourself and well of other people think anything is good enough for yourself and nothing too good for others. The berries are about done too dry for them. I may go to Johnsons and Gilders, am not in the mood yet.
On account of this they are irreverently dubbed 'Coal-boxes, 'Black Marias, or 'Jack Johnsons' by the soldiers. Men who take things in this spirit, are, it seems, likely to throw out the calculations based on the loss of moral so carefully framed by the German military philosophers."
It was partly because of the Johnsons being so kind to Rupert that Johnson Minor and I became chums at school, and partly because the fight had made us friendly, and I had no Rupert now, and was rather jealous of his taking completely to Henrietta, and most of all, I fancy, because Johnson Minor was determined to be friends with me. He was a very odd fellow.
"It's hard bread and cold bully we chew; It is months since we've tasted a stew; And the Jack Johnsons flare through the cold wintry air, O'er my little wet home in the trench. "So hurrah for the mud and the clay, Which leads to 'der Tag, that's the day When we enter Berlin, that city of sin, And make the fat Berliners pay."
Night after night they were to be found in groups, listening to Yacamo or the Indians from the delta as they retold for the thousandth time the story of "El Dorado;" others would sit beside Master Jeffreys whilst he read and translated Dan's papers; and any words that fell from the Johnsons, and others who had sailed the Spanish Main before, and heard the Spanish stories of fabulous Indian treasures, were stored up as precious oracles.
The author's intention is to treat, in a series of four or five romances, that part of the war for independence which particularly affected the great landed families of northern New York, the Johnsons, represented by Sir William, Sir John, Guy Johnson, and Colonel Claus; the notorious Butlers, father and son, the Schuylers, Van Rensselaers, and others.
For I insist upon it, that the verdict of a coroner's jury makes the best of epitaphs. Johnsons cannot pick holes in it. "Died through the visitation of intense stupidity, by impinging on a moonlight night against the off hind wheel of the Glasgow mail! Deodand upon the said wheel two-pence." What a simple lapidary inscription!
But for the authoritative influence of General Scott, and the absence of any foresight and energy on the part of the administration, the rebels would be almost wholly without military leaders, without naval officers. The Johnsons, Magruders, Tatnalls, Buchanans, ought to have been arrested for treason the moment they announced their intention to resign. Mr.
