The affixing a greater degree of respectability to the office of chief constable at Sydney, and the attachment of a salary to the situation from the crown, would be a desirable measure, since on this officer depends, in a great measure, the peace, the internal security, and good order of the colony; and it is therefore worthy of consideration whether the trust, inferior in importance to scarcely any in the settlement, ought not to be reposed in a person of some respectability, and who, by the receipt of an adequate remuneration, might be enabled to devote his time and attention to the duties of his office.
There is no evidence to warrant the belief that Napoleon had anything whatever to do with affixing his name to the territory to which it was applied, or with the nomenclature of the features of the coast. Nor would there be anything remarkable in the use of the name Terre Napoleon, if the French had really discovered the region so described.
They will not know who else has signed it; and we will put the little fellows up how to act, as circumstances may show us to be most advisable." "Capital!" exclaimed Buttar, affixing his signature in a clear bold hand to the document. "Would it not be better to tell Lemon what we have done?" "I think not," said Ernest. "The resolution emanates from us, so let us carry it out.
I will here myself repeat the principal traits of it, if it be only to deter writers, whoever they may be, from launching their works into the world without affixing their names to them. The Marchioness of Créqui was a lady in the high circles of society, to whom a copy of the eulogium of the author of Vert-Vert was presented as an offering.
Wood merely remarking that Mr. Wood will find it somewhat difficult to impugn the evidence of Mr. Phillips, whose "upright," "unimpeached," and "unexceptionable" character, he has himself vouched for in unqualified terms, by affixing his signature to the testimonial published in the Weekly Register of Antigua in 1825. The next testimony in Mary's behalf is that of Mrs.
While affixing the signatures, and without looking up, the First Consul said to M. Maret, who was a favourite with him, and who was standing at his right hand, "Are you rich, Maret?" "No, General." "So much the worse: a man should be independent." "General, I will never be dependent on any one but you."
Stand the trestles on their heads and lay the back and front up to them, using the guide marks just drawn. A nail driven part way in through one of the screw holes, and a batten tacked diagonally on the DD lines, will hold a leg in position while the screws are inserted. Affixing the Braces.
Thus it was that she did on this occasion what she never did threw off a "Reply paid?" that sounded officious, but that she partly made up for by deliberately affixing the stamps and by waiting till she had done so to give change. She had, for so much coolness, the strength that she considered she knew all about Miss Dolman. "Yes paid."
Prickly heat has seized hold upon me with a promptness that is anything but agreeable; the thermometer in my room at Clarke's Hotel registers 108 deg. at midnight. A punkah-wallah is indispensable night and day. A couple of days are spent in affixing a new set of tires to my wheel and seeing something of the lions of Lahore.
Here the door re-opened and Stillman entered, followed by the big German. "Just take a chair, Mr. Berg," said the coroner, seating himself at the desk and affixing his eyeglasses. The German lowered his form into the chair indicated and folded his fat hands across his monstrous paunch. "Your name in full is what?" asked Stillman with formality. "Franz Berg.
