She was a woman, the most womanish that it is possible to imagine a woman in her timidity as well as in her audacity a woman in her hatred of the brutal despotism of men, as well as in her intense disposition to self-devoting herself, madly even and blindly, to him who should merit such a devotion from her a woman whose piquant wit was occasionally paradoxical a superior woman, in brief, who entertained a well-grounded disdain and contempt for certain men either placed very high or greatly adulated, whom she had from time to time met in the drawing-room of her aunt, the Princess Saint-Dizier, when she resided with her.
The father of Judge R.H. Terrell was well-grounded in reading by his overseer during the absence of his master from Virginia. A fugitive slave from Essex County of the same State was not allowed to go to school publicly, but had an opportunity to learn from white persons privately.
About five years ago the press generally took this view of the subject, and a rumor ran that the government fully intended to ask for an addition to the prince's income; but nothing was done.

"I felt it from the first," continued Miss Clifford. "You see, his symptoms were so exactly like Bannister's that is the maid who is ill.
For myself, it is certain that I had for many years regarded marriage with so well-grounded an apprehension, that, notwithstanding the partiality for Mary that had taken possession of my soul, I should have felt it very difficult, at least in the present stage of our intercourse, to have resolved on such a measure.
