Excerpt from New Biographies of Illustrious Men English literature. Although our information as to his pecun iary affairs is very scanty, we are entitled to believe that he was new independent of literary labor. He speaks, in an extant paper, of having had (but lost) property in the fest Indies; and he is understood to have inherited several thousand pounds from a younger brother, who was governor Of Madras. In 1711, he purchased for ten thousand pounds, the estate Of Bilton, near Rugby; the same place which, in our own day, became the residence of Mr. Apperley, better known by the assumed name of Nimrod.

Excerpt from Illustrious Men of the United States The virtues of the Indian character were nobly illustrated in this Princess, for it was her destiny to interweave her name with acts of kindness, and to illustrate, by her daring generosity, one of the most important periods of our national existence. She was the daughter of a very celebrated chief, of the men who then were rulers over a land from the face of which they have since disappeared. Powhatan was conspicuous among the forest warriors of Virginia. His lovely daughter was born in 1505. The English, who had by superior knowledge effected a settlement, or the beginning of one, were favorites with her; as she, probably from the possession of an higher order of intellect than was else found in her tribe, early learned to appreciate the benefits and advantages of civilization, and to estimate at its worth, the value of knowledge, which she discovered in the white men. Captain John Smith, whose bravery is among the finest pages in the history of Virginia, was condemned to death, and to a cruel death, by the merciless savages, into whose hands he had fallen.

Excerpt from Plutarch's Lives of Illustrious Men, Vol. 3: John Dryden's Translation Corrected From the Greek and Revised and Annotated Notwithstanding, he frequently incurred Alexander's displeasure, and put himself into some danger, through Hephaestion. The quarters that had been taken up for Eumenes, Hephaestion assigned to Euius, the flute-player. Upon which, in great anger, Eumenes and Mentor came to Alexander, and loudly complained, saying that the way to be regarded was to throw away their arms, and turn flute-players or tragedians; SO much SO that Alexander took their part and chid Hephaestion; but soon after changed his mind again, and was angry with Eumenes, and accounted the freedom he had taken to be rather an affront to the king, than a reflection upon He phaestion. Afterwards, when N earchus, with a fleet, was to be sent to the Southern Sea, Alexander borrowed money of his friends, his own treasury being exhausted, and would have had three hundred talents of Eumenes, but he sent a hundred only, pretending that it was not without great difficulty he had raised so much from his stewards. Alexander neither complained nor took the money, but gave private order to set Eumenes's tent on fire, designing to take him in a manifest lie, when his money was carried out. But before that could be done, the tent was consumed, and Alexander repented of his orders, all his papers being burnt; the gold and silver, however, which was melted down in the fire, being afterwards collected, was found to be more than one thousand talents; yet Alexander took none of it, and only wrote to the several governors and generals to send new copies of the papers that were burnt, and ordered them to be delivered to Eumenes.

Excerpt from Pleasant Hours With Illustrious Men and Women: With Many Personal Reminiscences There are few studies more interesting, and none more in structive, than the study of biography. Horace Mann says Biography, especially the biography of the great and good. Who have risen by their own exertions from poverty and obscurity to eminence and usefulness, is an inspiring and ennobling study. Lts direct tendency is to reproduce the excel lence it records. A greater thinker still-thomas Carlyle says Biography is the most universal] y pleasant, and the most universally profitable of all reading. In the study of a man's life we find principles in action, and great truths translated into character. The drama of a man's life - the tragic, the comic and the pathetic. Playing their parts in the shifting scenes - is not only an enchanting study, but it is by this study alone that we can become well informed in the philosophy of life. If we would understand what heroism is, we must study the lives of heroic men and women. A living patriot will teach us more of patriotism than a thousand books. Men are growing wise enough to know that the only way to get a good understanding of Christianity is to study the life of Jesus Christ.
