There are several anti-Maine-law places, such as Tom and Jerry, Whiskeyrun, Brandywine, Jolly, Lemon, Pipe, and Pitcher, in which Father Matthew himself could hardly reside unimpeached in repute. They read like the names in the old-fashioned "Temperance Tales," all allegory and alcohol, which flourished in our boyhood.

"Then, my lord, may I ask you why you considered it advisable to imprison Mr Simple in Bedlam?" "Because I hate him," retorted his lordship, "detest him." "And for what reason, my lord? his character is unimpeached, and he is your near relative." "I tell you, sir, that I hate him would that he were now lying dead at my feet!"

"In the present case, even although the testimony of the principal witness were thrown out, which, howbeit, cannot be done, he standing unimpeached before us, yet there remains sufficient from the testimony of the second, the truth of which is not denied by the prisoner, to convince us that something light and trivial has been uttered reflecting upon the godly Mr.

He stands ready before all to state and defend His precepts and principles. He so spoke to the people that they listened with growing conviction. "Never man spake like this man."

Gentlemen of great eminence in the literary World, and of unimpeached Integrity were engaged; and others, though of acknowledged Abilities, yet, to say the least, of very suspicious Characters, were employed.

Other untaught gifts she possessed, and the historic record is unimpeached as regards that child of genius, Jeanne d'Arc. "Ne me dites jamais cette bete de mot, impossible," said Napoleon: it is indeed a stupid word where genius is concerned.

It is however, a point on which foreign states are very likely to be misinformed and abused, by the interested representations of those who are anxious to catch at their protection. The claim of territory is, therefore, to be taken according to the letter of the law, and to be made out by clear and unimpeached evidence.

In this matter I must say his Excellency behaved to me with scrupulous consideration; not a word passed his lips about the second loan, about that unlucky cable, or any other dealings with the money.
