Excerpt from The Wit and Wisdom of the Bench and Bar These pages do not profess to be a complete record of. The jokes or humorous anecdotes connected with the English Bench and Bar. They are confined to those which appear to contain some of the elements of \vit and Wisdom, and rather to such incidents as are at once witty and wise than to those which come under only one of these heads. The field is immensely wide, and it is by no means easy in so small a compass to do anything like justice to it; for where there is so much which is admirable, the task of selection is a difficult one. On the other hand, it is 'not pretended that anything like a comprehensive outline of the subject is laid before the reader. Certain divisions have been selected, and under them there have been arranged what cannot be called more than specimens.

Excerpt from The Bench and Bar of Texas The definition of that intuitive principle or subtle quality of the mind, which we call genius, has never yet been formulated; at least, it has never received an intelligent interpretation among men. Its source lies concealed in the unexplored recesses of human nature; nor is its presence known until, awakened by the touch of opportunity, it bursts from its gyves, and flashes upon the world with a light that illuminates the extending scope of its own vision. But whatever may be the abstract nature of genius, its qualities are readily recognized and its manifestations easily judged. Its course is upward and onward, and its flight is bounded by no definable horizon, while its zenith is hidden somewhere in the realms of eternal and untar hished light.
