Od. por annum, poet trl'e. The writels of Articles appearing it! tltis Magazillc al'e alotle I'CSPollsible jor the opinions thereit! expressed.) ETHICS, SCIENCE AND VIVISECTION. IN his interesting article on the "Province of Ethics and the Province of S ience" in the August number of this Magazine, Mr. Elwes does much to supply the key to the position of the opponents of vivisection, though he is dislosed to accuse the much refuted hand of having no position worth mentioning. In the distinction between Ethics and Science, Mr. Elwes (who speaks in the name of Science) is emphasising a point on which all careful opponents of vivisection have invariably laid insistent stress. Tt is the defenders of the practice who have obscured the distinc­ tion by declaring indignantly that they alone are the judges in this question, and that the agitation against their work is an unwar­ rantable and mi chievous interference. The reply to this is: Science and Ethics are distinct: you, as men f science are not, as such, especially competent to decide on the right and wrong of the matter. In that, the public has a claim to a voice, eeing that it involves the problem of the rights of animals which is an ethical and not merely a scientific question. Indeed your special interests and enthusiasms tend to disqualify you, to some extent at least, from judging the ethical point. ft is of course the true policy of the pro-vivisector to bring the battle to his own field, and his efforts will generally be found to be directed to concentrating the argument on the scientific value of his experiments. It not eldom happens that his opponent unwisely allows himself to be led on to this ground, and to admit, by infer­ ence, that he might consent to a practice which he began by denouncing as a crime, if once he could be convinced that its fruits are sufficiently tempting. Thus the whole question of ethics is confused with that of science, while the" Good of Humanity" is treated from the neces­ . arily limited point of view of one profession only (that of the physiologist) to the total ignoring of that more general "good of humanity" which hangs at least as much upon the principles on which man founds his Jaws and his sentiments as upon the parti- ular knowledge which he might (per assumption) acquire respecting nerves and organs, or the particular preparation of diseased animal matter which medical experts might see good to introduce into the z blood of a confiding people, with their will or against it, according as the balance of power at the moment might decide. It is not in a wilfully controversial spirit that 1 make this effort to re-examine the logical principle which underlies-or ought to underlie-opposition to this practice. Mr. Elwes cannot restrain a scientific £lout or so at anti-vivisec­ tors in the course of his article, and this perhaps is not unnatural j for to all but those who have made a special tudy of the tre­ mendous principles involved in this con trover y, the opponents of science (as they are called) must indeed seem easily assailable, especially on the ground of inconsistency. By Mr. Elwes' showing their dilemma is most serious. If, he argue, they hold it wrong to torture animals for great scientific and humanitarian ends, surely they ought to hold it more wrong to "inflict pain and death merely to provide food not absolutely necessary," and for other purposes less important. This argument, to begin with, treats death and torture as if there were no distinction between them. It is as if one were to reply to an opponent of the rack or the thumbscrew, that the objection was absurd in one who failed to protest also against war, capital punishment, and even again. t imprisonment which involves some painful experience to the victim. The criticism quoted above from Mr. Elwes' article, virtually amounts to no more than this. It seems to be at this date, the natural first-hand vie,," of the case j that is, the view induced in the public mind after about twenty years of legalised vivisection. Previous to that, the first­ hand impression produced by the practice (then outside the realm of law) was intense indignation, as will be seen by anyone who cares to study the early history of the movement. By this signi­ ficant fact we may trace the reconciling effect of familiarity with what is horrible j the inevitable trend of sentiment towards acquies­ cence and finally applause when it deals with a duly recognised and State-supported institution. The present first-hand view, whi h Mr. Elwes hares, implies that the subject has never been fully onsidered: otherwise it would be een that the accusations of inconsistency that assail the so-called enemies of science are entirely irrelevant. For the opponent of vivisection in that capacity has no locrical concern with any lesser wrong to animals than that which' hf~ opposes.

MY objects in writing " Stephan Langton " were, first to add a Dcw interest to Albury and its neighbourhood, by representing truly and historically our aspects in the rei"n of King John ; next, to bring to modem memory the grand character of a great and good Archbishop who long antedated Luther in his opposition to Popery, and who stood up for English freedom, ctilminating in Magna Charta, many centuries before these onr latter days ; thirdly, to clear my brain of numeroua fancies and picturea, aa only the writing of another book could do that. Ita aeed is truly recorded in the first chapter, as to the two stone coffins still in the chancel of St. Martha's. I began the book on November 26th, 1857, and finished it in exactly eight weeks, on January 2l8t, 1858, reading for the work included; in two months more it waa printed by Hurat and Blackett. I in­ tended it for one fail volume, but the publishers preferred to issue it in two scant ones ; it has since been reproduced as one railway book by Ward and Lock. Mr. Drummond let me have the run of his famoua historical library at Albury for purposes of reference, etc., beyond what I had in my own ; and I consulted and partially read, for accurate pictures of John's time in England, the histories of Tyrrell, Holinshed, Hume, Poole, Markland ; Thomson's " Magna Charta," James's " Philip Augustus," Milman's "Latin Christi­ anity," Hallam's "Middle Agea," Maimbourg'a "LivesofthePopes," Banke't "Life of Innocent the Third," Maitland on "The Dark VllI PKEhACE.

  • The Democratic Party and the Transformation of American Conservatism, 1847-1860
    PRESERVING THE WHITE MAN’S REPUBLIC: THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY AND THE TRANSFORMATION OF AMERICAN CONSERVATISM, 1847-1860 Joshua A. Lynn A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2015 Approved by: Harry L. Watson William L. Barney Laura F. Edwards Joseph T. Glatthaar Michael Lienesch © 2015 Joshua A. Lynn ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Joshua A. Lynn: Preserving the White Man’s Republic: The Democratic Party and the Transformation of American Conservatism, 1847-1860 (Under the direction of Harry L. Watson) In the late 1840s and 1850s, the American Democratic party redefined itself as “conservative.” Yet Democrats’ preexisting dedication to majoritarian democracy, liberal individualism, and white supremacy had not changed. Democrats believed that “fanatical” reformers, who opposed slavery and advanced the rights of African Americans and women, imperiled the white man’s republic they had crafted in the early 1800s. There were no more abstract notions of freedom to boundlessly unfold; there was only the existing liberty of white men to conserve. Democrats therefore recast democracy, previously a progressive means to expand rights, as a way for local majorities to police racial and gender boundaries. In the process, they reinvigorated American conservatism by placing it on a foundation of majoritarian democracy. Empowering white men to democratically govern all other Americans, Democrats contended, would preserve their prerogatives. With the policy of “popular sovereignty,” for instance, Democrats left slavery’s expansion to territorial settlers’ democratic decision-making.

  • Captain Bligh's Second Voyage to the South Sea
    Captain Bligh's Second Voyage to the South Sea By Ida Lee Captain Bligh's Second Voyage To The South Sea CHAPTER I. THE SHIPS LEAVE ENGLAND. On Wednesday, August 3rd, 1791, Captain Bligh left England for the second time in search of the breadfruit. The "Providence" and the "Assistant" sailed from Spithead in fine weather, the wind being fair and the sea calm. As they passed down the Channel the Portland Lights were visible on the 4th, and on the following day the land about the Start. Here an English frigate standing after them proved to be H.M.S. "Winchelsea" bound for Plymouth, and those on board the "Providence" and "Assistant" sent off their last shore letters by the King's ship. A strange sail was sighted on the 9th which soon afterwards hoisted Dutch colours, and on the loth a Swedish brig passed them on her way from Alicante to Gothenburg. Black clouds hung above the horizon throughout the next day threatening a storm which burst over the ships on the 12th, with thunder and very vivid lightning. When it had abated a spell of fine weather set in and good progress was made by both vessels. Another ship was seen on the 15th, and after the "Providence" had fired a gun to bring her to, was found to be a Portuguese schooner making for Cork. On this day "to encourage the people to be alert in executing their duty and to keep them in good health," Captain Bligh ordered them "to keep three watches, but the master himself to keep none so as to be ready for all calls".

  • E & HT Anthony Catalog
    Introduction The following individuals (listed alphabetically) contributed especially significant ideas or amounts of data to this project; their assistance is acknowledged with gratitude: The late Mr. A. Verner Conover, the late Dr. William C. Darrah, Mr. Jeffrey Krause, the late Mr. Frederick Lightfoot, and Mr. Russell Norton. The tedious and exacting transfer of data from the Anthony catalogs into the computer data base was done by Mrs. Patricia Treadwell. Mrs. Joleeta Treadwell greatly assisted in the compilation of information from the Conover collection. The work was supported in part by a grant from the National Stereoscopic Association's research fund. Data conversions by Wolfgang Sell. The Anthony company was among the largest producers of stereoviews in the world, as well as one of the earliest. The involvement in stereo came considerably later, however, than the initial founding of the organization by Edward Anthony in 1840. Remarkably, he was only 22 at the time but had already graduated from Columbia College and worked professionally in several fields. And it should be remembered that only in the previous year -- 1839 -- had Daguerre publicly described his photographic process. Edward Anthony studied photography under Samuel F. B. Morse, and absorbed from him not only the necessary technical information but also some knowledge of artistic matters in general. Edward Anthony Henry Anthony With his brother Henry he had been employed as an engineer on the Croton aqueduct project, and continued experimenting with daguerreotypes. In 1840 he worked with the joint American-British commission charged with determining the boundary between Maine and Canada, taking a number of images to support the observations of the surveyors.

Notably, political trials often attract commentary on their theatrics whereby the spectacle becomes a matter of uneasy scrutiny, despite the tacit cross- cultural acknowledgment that the trial is an inherently theatrical form. This thesis is an attempt to conceptualise the political operations and effects of the relation between performance and performativity in trials, treating these as separate but related terms. It proposes a new framework for studying political trials by drawing on theories of performativity (J.L.
