A speech that was originally delivered in the United States House of Representatives on May 11, 1848 by John A. Rockwell (1803-1861), an American lawyer, judge, and politician. Rockwell served as a U.S. Representative from Connecticut from 1845-1849. He was a Whig. In this speech, Rockwell discusses a bill that would make appropriations for military pensions and other types of pensions. However, Rockwell principally delves into a matter involving an apparently and severely erroneous annual official report to Congress credited to the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury. Rockwell adamantly counters a previous speech that had sought to vindicate the character of the Secretary of the Treasury. He doubles down on his argument stating, "It is now officially or semi-officially admitted that the Secretary committed a blunder in his annual official report to Congress of at least $1,401,900." Rockwell further explains the problem at hand which was the over-issuance of Treasury notes in 1846 and 1847; the Secretary had apparently promised there were enough notes available when in fact there were not. Rockwell analyzes accurate statements that were later procured and examines specific parts of those statements to show how the Secretary's financial errors happened. Rockwell contends that the Secretary was both "confused" and "reckless" regarding the severity of his misreporting. Rockwell also makes a few final comments about the loan bill. He suggests that the loan bill is partisan, with the Whigs opposing and the Democrats supporting it.…

"Christmas is all about a story, the story of a baby born to humble parents in a tiny Bethlehem stable under a brilliant eastern star -- a story that changed the world forever. So it comes as no surprise that some of Guideposts magazine's greatest stories about about Christmas, and how people are inspired and lives are changed at this blessed time of year. For there is a resonance from that birth that echoes through time and through our very hearts. Every story in this collection is proof of the enduring power of that first Christmas, true personal accounts of transformation told by ordinary people . and not -so-ordinary people. You will read about blessings, traditions, forgiveness, love, faith, giving, miracles, and angles. All the themes that make this season truly holy. Have you ever felt lonely at Christmas? Widower Jimmy Gupton did, until he took in a struggling young married couple with a baby on the way. Jimmy learned that there is always room at the inn, and always a reason to go on living. A copywriter who yearns to give gifts that really mean something has her prayer answered in a way she could have never imagined. A single mom struggling to raise two young daughters discovers the power of a puppy to soothe hurting hearts. A firefighter's vivid and disturbing dream saves a family from death on Christmas Eve. Then there is the account of a mysterious disappearance of the Christ Child from the manger scened at Victory Church. Who could have done such a thing? You'll be surprised to find out. I was. Almost as surprised as I was to learn how writer Kitty Slattery's missing tooth led her to a deeper understanding of the Christmas spirit. There are familiar names too. Hollywood legend Jimmy Stewart will tell you why it really is "a wonderful life" and what that classic holiday movie meant to him on the most personal level. Celebrated ornament-maker Christopher Radko introduces you to his Polish grandmother and explains how the desire not to disappoint her led him to design his first beautiful creations. Beloved actor Michael Landon talks about the angels in his life, human and otherwise. My favorite holiday stories, though, come from our "His Mysterious Ways" feature -- year in and year out the most popular page in the magazine. Here you will meet people from all walks of life who have experienced something inexplicable, even miraculous, at Christmastime -- incredible stories that will send a shiver down your spine and warm your heart as well. This book is filled with stories you will never forget from the little magazine that has inspired millions of readers for sixty years. So go ahead, start reading, and find out why Guideposts is America's favorite magazine, especially at Christmas. -- Edward Grinnan, editor-in-chief, Guideposts." -- from the Foreword.
