The monument bears this inscription, near the base Whyte and De Rome, Founders. Frank Appersberger, Sculptor. In front of this most interesting monument is a cannon that has a history. Near the head of this instrument of destruction is the legend, Pluribus nec Impar. On the body of the cannon we read Le Prince De Conde. Ultima Ratio Regum. Louis Charles De Bourbon Comte D'Eu., Due D'Aumale.

Jerry thrust the cradle aside hastily. "Neither have I, uncle, neither have I," he said; "not chick nor child. If you ain't too tired, let me show you over the house. I'm sorry the elevator isn't running, so you could go up to the cupolo. This room's a sort of e pluribus unum, many in one; kind of a boodwar and kitchen combined. The other rooms ain't inclosed yet, but they're safe enough outside.

Still he now found himself using with wonderful ease Latin phrases such as "E pluribus unum," "lapsus linguæ," and "sine qua non," where they seemed to be appropriate. Solomon John looked well as Othello, although by some he was mistaken for an older snake-charmer, with his brown complexion, glaring white trousers, and white shirt.

"Rank is only the E pluribus Unum stamp, on the trade dollar: a feller is a feller for all that." But I'll be hanged if he didn't, after all my expenditure of wind and eloquence, and quotin' poetry, and every thing if he didn't turn round at the foot of that doorstep, and strikin' that same patient, determined attitude of hisen, say, says he, "You are mistaken, mom.

He drew a copy of Kant from his blouse, but in his confusion several other volumes dropped from his bosom on the ground. The Baronet picked them up. "Ah!" said the Philosopher, "what's this? Cicero's 'De Sonertute, at your age, too! Martial's 'Epigrams, Caesar's 'Commentaries. What! a classical scholar?" "E pluribus Unum. Nux vomica. Nil desperandum. Nihil fit!" said the Boy enthusiastically.

Whenever you see a bird or a beast or a seal or an otter in Africa you know that he is merely a sorry surviving fragment of that sublime original of whom I have been speaking that creature which was everything in general and nothing in particular the opulently endowed 'e pluribus unum' of the animal world.

"And the sun," said D'Artagnan, "is this," as he pointed to the panels of the cabinet, where the sun was brilliantly represented in every direction, with this motto, "Nec pluribus impar." Louis's anger, increased by the bitterness of his own personal sufferings, hardly required this additional circumstance to foment it.

When we consider the chaos in which that dismal MS. presented itself to the eyes of the unfortunate Professor in the University of Rome, we can readily conceive how he must have consulted, as he told us he did, "the learned, the judicious and the subtle" about the correction of errors of the knottiest nature which came upon him so fast that, to express their abundance, he instinctively borrows his figure of speech, from water gushing from a fountain or coming down in a cataract: "the old manuscript," says he, "from which I have undertaken to transcribe and publish this volume, gushes forth with a multiplicity of blunders:" "vetus codex, unde hunc ipsum describendum atque invulgandum curavi, pluribus mendis scatet."

'Locus est et pluribus umbris'. I do not pretend to give you any account of the present state of this country, or Ministry, not knowing nor guessing it myself. God bless you, and send you health, which is the first and greatest of all blessings! LONDON, March 15, 1768. MY DEAR FRIEND: This letter is supplemental to my last.
