ALSO CITY OFFICERS IN BOSTON, AND OTHER USEFUL INFORMATION. BOSTON: PUBLISHED BY JAMES LORING, 13 2 Washington Street. ECLIPSES IN 1839. 1. The first will be a great and total eclipse, on Friday March 15th, at 9h. 28m. morning, but by reason of the moon's south latitude, her shadow will not touch any part of North America. The course of the general eclipse will be from southwest to north- east, from the Pacific Ocean a little west of Chili to the Arabian Gulf and southeastern part of the Mediterranean Sea. The termination of this grand and sublime phenomenon will probably be witnessed from the summit of some of those stupendous monuments of ancient industry and folly, the vast and lofty pyramids on the banks of the Nile in lower Egypt. The principal cities and places that will be to- tally shadowed in this eclipse, are Valparaiso, Mendoza, Cordova, Assumption, St. Salvador and Pernambuco, in South America, and Sierra Leone, Teemboo, Tombucto and Fezzan, in Africa. At each of these places the duration of total darkness will be from one to six minutes, and several of the planets and fixed stars will probably be visible. 2. The other will also be a grand and beautiful eclipse, on Satur- day, September 7th, at 5h. 35m. evening, but on account of the Mnon's low latitude, and happening so late in the afternoon, no part of it will be visible in North America. Its whole course will be in the Pacific Ocean, from the island of Niphon, in the east of Asia, to Juan Fernandez, near the southwest- ern coast of South America. The only people of our terrestrial planet who will have an opportunity of witnessing this beautiful and sub- lime phenomenon, will be the inhabitants of the aforesaid islands, and of the Sandwich and Society groups; except perchance some few others who " go down to the sea in ships, and do business on the great waters."

  • INDIANA LAW REVIEW [Vol
    . A Short History of Hearsay Reform, with Particular Reference to Hoffman v. Palmer, Eddie Morgan and Jerry Frank Michael Ariens* "Few historians, however, hold themselves out as fictionists." Jerome Frank, The Place ofthe Expert in a Democratic Society 1 True, no man can be wholly apart from his fellows. But, if each of us is a promontory, yet the promontory reaches out beyond the social mainland to a point where others cannot intrude. ... It is a no-other-man's land, for others can't penetrate it, can't communicate with it. Jerome Frank, Judge Learned Hand1 Introduction On my summer vacation, I chanced upon the novel Foe by the South African writer 3 J.M. Coetzee. Foe is a modern reworking of Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe. In this modern retelling, Coetzee presents the story of the relation of author and subject, not the story of the adventures of a shipwrecked Englishman. In Foe, the authorial voice is that of Susan Barton, a castaway who ended up on the same island as Cruso and Friday. She, Cruso and Friday are "rescued" and taken by ship to England. En route, Cruso dies. Once in London, Susan Barton takes her story of Cruso and Friday to Daniel Foe, and finds that his interest is more in the story of her life and less in the story of Cruso 's adventures. Foe, chased by creditors, flees his house, into which Barton and Friday move. Barton later leaves, searching for Foe, whom she finally tracks down. Confronting Foe, 4 she says, "I am not a story, Mr.

  • Globalization and the Common Humanity: Ethical and Institutional Concerns
    Globalization. Ethical and Institutional Concerns Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences, Acta 7, Vatican City 2001 www.pass.va/content/dam/scienzesociali/pdf/acta7/acta7-ramirez2.pdf GLOBALIZATION AND THE COMMON HUMANITY: ETHICAL AND INSTITUTIONAL CONCERNS MINA M. RAMIREZ This Report tries to present a synthesis (without entering into the tech- nical aspects) of the phenomenon of globalization, underscoring the nega- tive and the positive aspects as well as the Challenges of Globalization gleaned from the topical discussions of this assembly with special reference to the most affected – the monetarily poor of the world. The Approach to Globalization The objective of the assembly is to highlight the findings of Social Science with regard to Globalization offering these to the Catholic Church for the development of her Christian Social Teachings (President E. Malinvaud). The approach should be balanced, avoiding two extreme attitudes: 1) to resist globalization without understanding its nuances, and/or 2) to subtly reduce it to one of its many aspects. As an Academy, the PASS wishes to contribute to the Church the positive and negative implications for devel- oping countries of Globalization through the analysis and critique of its underlying values and ethics. PASS at this stage is not looking for unanim- ity. It is rather challenging one’s certainty and bringing out ideas in its plu- rality. (Prof. L. Sabourin). A great task, it nevertheless is watching for con- verging points. Rev. Fr. Prof. Johannes Schasching, S.J. brought to light the historical evolution of Christian Social Teachings (CSTs), the Church’s actual point of view and latest development in relation to her all inclusive nature, address- ing herself not only to the hierarchy of the Church, but also to other church- es, all religions and all women and men of goodwill.

  • Commandeering and Constitutional Change
    WESLEY J. CAMPBELL Commandeering and Constitutional Change ABSTRAC T. Coming in the midst of the Rehnquist Court's federalism revolution, Printz v. United States held that federal commandeering of state executive officers is "fundamentally incompatible with our constitutional system of dual sovereignty." The Printz majority's discussion of historical evidence, however, inverted Founding-era perspectives. When Federalists such as Alexander Hamilton endorsed commandeering during the ratification debates, they were not seeking to expand federal power. Quite the opposite. The Federalists capitulated to states' rights advocates who had recently rejected a continental impost tax because Hamilton, among others, insisted on hiring federal collectors rather than commandeering state collectors. The commandeering power, it turns out, was an integral aspect of the Anti-Federalist agenda because it facilitated federal use of state and local officers, thus ensuring greater local control over federal law enforcement and averting the need for a bloated federal bureaucracy. These priorities carried over into the First Congress, where Anti-Federalists were among the most vehement defenders of the federal power to commandeer state executive and judicial officers. Ironically, though understandably when viewed in context, it was Federalists who first planted the seeds of the anticommandeering doctrine. Incorporating recently uncovered sources and new interpretations, this Article aims to significantly revise our understanding of Founding-era attitudes toward federal commandeering of state officers. Moreover, the Article explains why early Congresses generally shunned the use of state officers and how this custom combined with shifting political priorities to quickly erode what once had been a strong consensus favoring commandeering's constitutionality.
