When we have no ideas to express, in a word, we rarely save our emptiness by any appearance of clever expression. When a Frenchman expresses ideas for which we do not care, with which we are temperamentally out of sympathy, we assume that his expression is equally empty. Matthew Arnold cites a passage from Mr. Palgrave, and comments significantly on it, in this sense. "The style," exclaims Mr.
He who most believes in progress needs most to resist its temptations. James H. Snowden: Is the World Growing Better? pp. 41-42. Francis Turner Palgrave: Faith and Light in the Latter Days. George Hakewill: An Apologie of the Power and Providence of God in the Government of the World, or An Examination and Censure of the Common Errour Touching Natures Perpetuall and Universall Decay.
We met him not for from Kassala; he acknowledged the deceit he had practised, and was delighted when he heard that we had no intention of requesting the Turkish authorities to make him a prisoner. Government at last decided on recalling us, and appointed Mr. Palgrave, the distinguished Arabian traveller, in our stead. On July 12, Ibrahim arrived.
As editor of the Edinburgh Review he had authority and even power, although the Review and the whole Whig doctrinaire school had begun as the French say to date; and of course the literary and artistic sharpshooters of 1867 like Frank Palgrave frothed and foamed at the mere mention of Reeve's name. Three-fourths of their fury was due only to his ponderous manner.
It is evident that the laws of brevity and unity cannot be disassociated.

Palgrave also says: "The precious ore was cast into the scales of justice, even when held by the most conscientious of our Anglo-Saxon kings. A single case will exemplify the practices which prevailed. Alfric, the heir of 'Aylwin, the black, seeks to set aside the death-bed bequest, by which his kinsman bestowed four rich and fertile manors upon St. Benedict.
Belcher was up early in order to get his "Tattler" as soon as it was dropped at his door. He soon found, on opening the reeking sheet, the column which held the precious document of Mr. Tibbets, and read: "The Riot at Sevenoaks!!! "An interesting Interview with Col. Belcher! "The original account grossly Exaggerated! "The whole matter an outburst of Personal Envy! "The Palgrave Mansion in a fume!
Martin had told Howard of the way he had found Joan on the hill, how she had climbed out of window that night and come to him to be rescued and how he had brought her to town to find Alice Palgrave away and married her.

Things began smoothly, and London glowed with the pleasant sense of familiarity and dinners. He sniffed with voluptuous delight the coal-smoke of Cheapside and revelled in the architecture of Oxford Street.
All meantime were loudly lamenting the falling off in Irish shipping, coastwise and foreign as well, which was all part and parcel of the same thing. A Palgrave Murphy boat was put off the ways at Alexandra basin, the only launch that year. Right enough the harbours were there only no ships ever called. There were wrecks and wreckers, the keeper said, who was evidently au fait.
