I do not even remember to have seen him mentioned in the works of James Huneker and you will not find his name in Barrett Wendell's "A History of American Literature" , "A Reader's History of American Literature" by Thomas Wentworth Higginson and Henry Walcott Boynton , Katherine Lee Bates's "American Literature" , "A Manual of American Literature," edited by Theodore Stanton , William B. Cairns's "A History of American Literature" , William Edward Simonds's "A Student's History of American Literature" , Fred Lewis Pattee's "A History of American Literature Since 1870" , John Macy's "The Spirit of American Literature" , or William Lyon Phelps's "The Advance of the English Novel" . The third volume of "The Cambridge History of American Literature," bringing the subject up to 1900, has not yet appeared but I should be amazed to discover that the editors had decided to include Saltus therein.
But it is a fundamental principle of our system, that all officers are liable to criminal prosecution "whenever they act partially or oppressively from a malicious or corrupt motive." See 15 Wendell's Reports, 278. That our magistrates are independent when they do not act partially or oppressively is very true, and, it is to be hoped, is equally true in every form of government.

"God forbid!" murmured the corporal, as the words trailed slowly out into the air from under Doctor Wendell's hand. "Theirs not to make reply Theirs not to reason why Theirs but to do an' die " The corporal set his teeth. Presently he looked across the bed and met the eyes of the major's mother. "So far, so good," he said, nodding to her, as the small hand in his relaxed its hold.

And yet, the limits of independence and of responsibility existing in the United States are borrowed from and identical with those established in England the most prominent instance of a limited monarchy. See the authorities referred to in the case in Wendell's Reports, before quoted. The very instances of discretionary power to which he refers, and which he considers arbitrary, exist in England.
