...refer to Horace (Satires, I. 4, 10): Versus dictabat stans pede in uno, where the editions and dictionaries speak of it as a proverbial expression. Not that stans pede altero might not be used in some cases. If Mr. Reiley were to call on Mr. Allen, we think the result might be thus described: Alanus, stans pede altero, altero Reileium foras extrusit. There is also the brilliant remark that "compulit (instead of coegit) never occurs with an object infinitive in good Latin." E. g. Ovid (Fasti, III. 860): Compulerunt regem jussa nefanda pati...
...afford this advance is large, the other plan would be best, though more expensive to those who ordered extras.

The Corporation and Overseers used last year to dine in state on the platform, and were well satisfied with their repasts; at least we never heard of any result of their visits: but I would ask them to remember that, very naturally, they may have been better served than we, or that, while they went home to a comfortable dinner in the evening, we had to come to a tea-table as meagre as our lunch-table...
...elements of logic, where he will learn that affirmative propositions do not distribute their predicates, and that the middle term of a syllogism should be used univocally. It is also necessary to remind him of the generally acknowledged fact, that a cause is not identical with its result. Indifference, a momentary consequence of liberal training, is not the cause of proper mental development, except so far as, in the sense of an unbiassed mind, it is a prerequisite of liberal thought...
...about the same strength. In the glass cell are used sulphuric acid and water, with zinc; and in the porous cup gas carbon and a saturated solution of ammonic nitrate in nitric acid. The important improvements made by Professor Gibbs in the way we have indicated will probably result in a very general substitution of the Ammonic Nitrate batteries in place of the inferior kinds...
