The right honorable gentleman talks of his fairness in determining the territorial dispute between the Nabob of Arcot and the prince of that country, when he superseded the determination of the Directors, in whom the law had vested the decision of that controversy. He is in this just as feeble as he is in every other part.
No. 2. Referred to from p. 22. Mr. George Smith being asked, Whether the debts of the Nabob of Arcot have increased since he knew Madras? he said, Yes, they have. He distinguishes his debts into two sorts: those contracted before the year 1766, and those contracted from that year to the year in which he left Madras.
"I think we'd be grade A fools ourselves to pass up the chance to get Wade's help. The man insane or not figured out a way of stabilizing and storing atomic hydrogen for his rockets. If he could do that in the shape he was then in...! "I'd say we'd be smart to keep the competition in the family." Mr. Morey leaned back in his chair and smiled up at Arcot. "You've got a good case there. I'll buy it.
Suddenly, just ahead of them, an enemy ship drove toward them with obvious intent to ram; if his magnetic beam caught them, and drew them towards him, there would be a head-on collision. Wade caught it with a molecular beam, and it became a blazing wreck on the ground. "All rays off!" Arcot called. As soon as they were off, Arcot hit a switch, and the Ancient Mariner vanished.
That, coupled with the exhaustion of working under four gravities, as they had while the ship was going through the storm, was enough to make them sleep soundly. Arcot had awakened before the others and had turned on the drive after resetting their course. After that was done, there was little to do, and time began to hang heavily on Arcot's hands.
Whatever the other seventy-five per cent or so of diluting gas is, I don't know, but it isn't nitrogen." Briefly Arcot and Wade discussed the unusual atmosphere, finally deciding that the inert gas was argon. "No great amount of nitrogen," Arcot concluded. "That means that life will have a sweet time extracting it from the air but wherever there is life, it finds a way to do the impossible.
The flaming gas was still shooting through the hole in the wall of the ship, and the rush of air through the corridor made it difficult to hear any sounds there, and exceedingly difficult to walk. "Turn on more power, Lieutenant, and see if we can't draw out the enemy," suggested Arcot, while they braced themselves around the tube exit.
Somewhere in the neighborhood of a hundred days, using all the acceleration that will be safe! At five gravities, reducing our present velocity of twenty-five thousand miles per second to zero will take approximately twenty-four hundred hours one hundred days! We'll have to use the gravitational attraction of that sun to help us." "We'll have to use the space control," said Arcot.
Torlos told Arcot that by far the greater percentage of the surface of Nansal was land. There was still plenty of water, for their seas were much deeper than those of Earth. Some of the seas were thirty miles deep over broad areas hundreds of square miles. As if to compensate, the land surfaces were covered with titanic mountain ranges, some of them over ten miles above sea level.
"We are supposed to follow these men to their city to have some kind of an audience with their ruler, according to Torlos. Let's get started; the rest of the fleet is waiting." Arcot led Torlos through the main engine room, and was going into the main coil room when Torlos stopped him. "Is this all your drive apparatus?" he thought. "Yes, it is," Arcot projected.
