The North River forms a portion of its boundary on the west, against Gloucester county, and nearly severs it from the mainland. Kilpatrick was favored with fine weather in his expedition, and returned on the twenty-second crowned with success. A multitude of slaves was liberated, hailing our forces everywhere as their friends and protectors.
In the lefthand corner, seated on an ottoman, and regarding the others as if a barrier were placed between them, are two men designated gamblers. Your Southern gentleman is, with few exceptions, a votary of the exciting vice; but he who makes it his profession severs the thread that bound him to society.
The gorgeous custom-house officer has smoked his last cigarette and taken his last "dispatch;" the belated passenger, whose agonizing shrieks and spasmodic contortions finally attracted the attention of the captain, is at length, carpet-bag in hand, on board, and the sharp crash of the gong severs the lingering groups. Who ever made an ocean voyage undismayed by the knell!
The rays of my electric flash-light have often caught him high over my head against the gray palm. Height does not daunt him. He will go up till he reaches the nuts, if it be a hundred feet. With his powerful nippers he severs the stem, choosing always a nut that is big and ripe. Descending the palm, he tears off the fibrous husk, which, at first thought, it would seem impossible for him to do.
If they wish to cleave to each other till death severs them if they wish to part on the morrow of their union let them, by heaven. We felt that the coming man would misapprehend both it and her though he would not hesitate to make a convenience of it. Ugh, the cynic! We formed ourselves round her in a ring of fire, hoping to frighten the beast away.
Gut or wire snoodings are indispensable when fishing for flathead, else the fish invariably severs the line with his fine needle-pointed teeth, which are set very closely together. Nothing comes amiss to them as food; but they have a great love for small mullet or whiting, or a piece of octopus tentacle.
There was a silence for a little time, and the elder lady resumed: "I remember now what you allude to, dear mademoiselle the increased estrangement, the widening separation which severs me from one unutterably dear to me the first and bitter disappointment of my life, which seems to grow more hopelessly incurable day by day." Mrs. Marston paused, and, after a brief silence, the governess said:
His eyes start from his head; his jaws open; he rolls on the grass; leaps in the air; puts forth the strength of a giant, but in vain. It is at this juncture that Verty runs up and severs the string with his hunting-knive; whereat Longears, finding himself released, rubs his nose vigorously with his paws, sneezes, and lies down with an unconscious air, as if nothing had happened. He is saved.
Hoe's printing-press, moved by steam, seizes on the blank paper, severs it from the roll in sheets of the right size, prints it on both sides, and folds it in a convenient shape, all with miraculous rapidity. Inventions in rock-boring and rock-drilling have made it possible to tunnel mountains.
The day that robs a child of his parents severs him from his own kind; his head is bowed, his cheeks are wet with tears, and he will go about destitute among the friends of his father, plucking one by the cloak and another by the shirt.
