Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 4, Slice 2 "Bohemia" to "Borgia, Francis" Pallas—Saussure.—Towards the close of the eighteenth century, the idea of distinguishing the mineral masses on our globe into separate groups, and studying their relations, began to be generally diffused. Principles of Geology or, The Modern Changes of the Earth and its Inhabitants Considered as Illustrative of Geology Thus a sliding-theory man might reason, and, if the external deportment of secondary glaciers were to decide the question, De Saussure might perhaps have the best of the argument. The Glaciers of the Alps Being a narrative of excursions and ascents, etc. De Saussure, for instance, in the account of his famous ascent of Mont Blanc in 1787, speaks a good deal of the difficulty of respiration. Above the Snow Line 2011-03-03T03:00:49.380Z Saussure, accompanied by eighteen guides, started from Chamonix on the 1st August. An Impromptu Ascent of Mont Blanc M. Bouritt, of Geneva, made two ineffectual attempts the same year, and the following year another, accompanied by Saussure, his own son, and fifteen guides. Narrative of a Journey to the Summit of Mont Blanc Pallas and Saussure were among the most celebrated whose labors contributed to this end. Principles of Geology or, The Modern Changes of the Earth and its Inhabitants Considered as Illustrative of Geology De Saussure, Fourier, M. Pouillet, and Mr. Hopkins have developed this speculation, and drawn from it consequences of the utmost importance; but it nevertheless rested upon a basis of conjecture. The Glaciers of the Alps Being a narrative of excursions and ascents, etc. The second successful climber of Mont Blanc was the savant, Saussure; the first the goatherd, Balmat. Toilers of the Sea De Saussure suffered considerably, and a raging thirst added to his discomfort. An Impromptu Ascent of Mont Blanc As soon as the intelligence of this success reached Saussure at Geneva, he determined on making a similar attempt: which he in fact did the same year, but was compelled by unfavourable weather to return. Narrative of a Journey to the Summit of Mont Blanc Saussure, on the other hand, employed the chief portion of his time in studying the structure of the Alps and Jura, and he provided valuable data for those who followed him. Principles of Geology or, The Modern Changes of the Earth and its Inhabitants Considered as Illustrative of Geology Saussure, however, attributes to the beds themselves a very considerable slope. Modern Painters, Volume IV (of V) My friend still pressed his point, and the professor rejoined very learnedly and ingeniously, but without really meeting the case; whereupon De Saussure silently assented, as if quite satisfied. The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 15, No. 91, May, 1865 It is asserted that the celebrated naturalist of Geneva, De Saussure, acquired there the seeds of the disease of which he died in a few months after his return from the summit. A Winter Amid the Ice and Other Thrilling Stories The guides pitched the tent, in which M. Saussure remained four hours, making a number of observations. Narrative of a Journey to the Summit of Mont Blanc I pass to the second proof, borrowed from Saussure, and which appears even more convincing. The American Quarterly Review, No. 17, March 1831 See the notes from De Saussure in Appendix 2. Modern Painters, Volume IV (of V) My chief college friend was young De Saussure, grandson of the naturalist of that name, who, the first with a single exception, reached the summit of Mont Blanc. The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 15, No. 91, May, 1865 It was left to Liebig, then, to restate the important doctrine of the essentialness of the mineral matter, already implied to some extent by de Saussure. Manures and the principles of manuring On the 8th of August, 1787, five days after M. Saussure's return, Col. Narrative of a Journey to the Summit of Mont Blanc Childs, acting as aids to Colonel De Saussure. Reminiscences of Forts Sumter and Moultrie in 1860-'61 They run across the gneissitic folia, and I hold with De Saussure, and consider them a cleavage. Modern Painters, Volume IV (of V) The subject of our lecture was some puzzling proposition in the differential calculus, and De Saussure propounded to the professor a knotty difficulty in connection with it. The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 15, No. 91, May, 1865 He reasserted de Saussure's conclusions, and by some simple calculations showed very clearly that it was wholly untenable. Manures and the principles of manuring As he was not properly provided with instruments, he was unable to add much to the observations which had been made by Saussure. Narrative of a Journey to the Summit of Mont Blanc Saussure found that the oak, the horse-chesnut, and other plants, absorb oxygen and give off carbonic acid in less volumes than the oxygen, while the house-leek and the cactus absorb oxygen without evolving carbonic acid. Elements of Agricultural Chemistry And I was confirmed in this feeling by De Saussure; the only writer whose help I did not refuse in the course of these inquiries. Modern Painters, Volume IV (of V) "You were not satisfied with that explanation," said I to De Saussure, as we walked to our rooms. The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 15, No. 91, May, 1865 In 1802 de Saussure wrote that it was unknown whether the constituents of many plants were due to the soils on which they grew, or whether they were the products of vegetable growth. Manures and the principles of manuring We did not suffer the great thirst which Saussure and his party experienced; This we prevented by drinking vinegar and water, which was very grateful to us, instead of pure water. Narrative of a Journey to the Summit of Mont Blanc Saussure has also observed that the quantity of ash diminishes in certain plants when the seed has ripened. Elements of Agricultural Chemistry My own experience among the Alps has furnished me with few exceptions to this law; but there is a very interesting one, according to Saussure, in the range of the Furca del Bosco. Modern Painters, Volume IV (of V) He first saw the full meaning of De Saussure's observation as to the reducing power of the solar rays, and gave that observation its proper place in the doctrine of conservation. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 This was long ago experimentally proved by de Saussure, who showed that plants absorbed oxygen through their roots. Manures and the principles of manuring According to the observations of Saussure, the height of the barometer on the summit, was sixteen and a half inches, while that of a corresponding one at Geneva, was twenty-eight inches. Narrative of a Journey to the Summit of Mont Blanc But Saussure has gone further, and shown that even when present, humus is not absorbed. Elements of Agricultural Chemistry The humidity of the air was observed both by August's psychrometer and Saussure's hygrometer. The Voyage of the Vega round Asia and Europe, Volume I and Volume II For the subdivisions the point of union must be decimally divided, and M. de Saussure would give the name of speso to a ten-thousandth part of the gold coin. The Task of Social Hygiene The first to oppose this theory was de Saussure, who, in 1804, carried out experiments which showed that plants were unable to utilise free nitrogen. Manures and the principles of manuring English, with water at the bottom, the temperature of which was ascertained by Saussure. On the Old Road, Vol. 2 (of 2) A Collection of Miscellaneous Essays and Articles on Art and Literature Saussure made similar experiments, and observed that the quantity of water exhaled by a sunflower amounted to about 220 lb. in four months. Elements of Agricultural Chemistry This species is closely allied to the P. fastidiosus of Saussure, and, notwithstanding the difference in colouring, may possibly, I think, be an extreme variety of that species. Journal of the Proceedings of the Linnean Society - Vol. 3 Zoology In modern times, Scott, Wordsworth and Byron are alike unconscious of them; and the most observant and descriptive of scientific men, De Saussure, is utterly silent concerning them. The Storm-Cloud of the Nineteenth Century Two Lectures delivered at the London Institution February 4th and 11th, 1884 Much valuable work, it is true, had already been done, especially by his two great predecessors, de Saussure and Boussingault; but it was, down to the year 1840, a science made up of isolated facts. Manures and the principles of manuring "And you were there?" said Mr. de Saussure, suddenly appealing to me. Daisy in the Field In his leisure he studied natural sciences, and kept up a correspondence with two Swiss, whose systems of physics then occupied the learned world—M. de Saussure and Marat. History of the Girondists, Volume I Personal Memoirs of the Patriots of the French Revolution Saussure has a variety with the metathorax black between the lines; of two examples from Celebes, one has the yellow lines entire, the other has them abbreviated at half their length. Journal of the Proceedings of the Linnean Society - Vol. 3 Zoology But my former expansion of Saussure's theory is at least closer to the facts than Professor Tyndall's "rubbing against the rocks," and I therefore allow room for it here, with its illustrative wood-cut. The Storm-Cloud of the Nineteenth Century Two Lectures delivered at the London Institution February 4th and 11th, 1884 De Saussure, as we have also already seen, was fully impressed with the importance of applying nitrogen to the soil as a manure. Manures and the principles of manuring He is, if being out of his place can make him so," said De Saussure; "and the assumption of rights that nobody has given him. Daisy in the Field The region W. of Saussure abounds in craterlets, some of which are of the minutest type. The Moon A Full Description and Map of its Principal Physical Features M. de Saussure brought forward facts, and the count served up the old arguments about Esperanto being unpatriotic and the prejudice it would inflict upon literature. International Language Past, Present and Future: With Specimens of Esperanto and Grammar The phenomenon was first described by De Saussure, who gives the same explanation as Tyndall; and from whom, in the first volume of 'Modern Painters,' I adopted it without sufficient examination. The Storm-Cloud of the Nineteenth Century Two Lectures delivered at the London Institution February 4th and 11th, 1884 Saussure, De, on absorption of gases by soil, 81; on nitrogen in plants, 41; researches on plant-food by, 15. Manures and the principles of manuring "You are fatigued, Miss Randolph?" said the soft voice of De Saussure. Daisy in the Field Such, also, is the opinion of De Saussure, Scoresby, and other meteorologists. Young Folks' Library, Volume XI (of 20) Wonders of Earth, Sea and Sky A prisoner in my room, Dr. Kemper told me the manner in which Saussure made the ascent. Scenes in Switzerland We must be civil to Mr. Hope, as recommended by Lord Auckland; and also to Monsieur de Rochement, and Prince Bozatinsky, as recommended by my friend Saussure. The Letters of Lord Nelson to Lady Hamilton, Vol II. With A Supplement Of Interesting Letters By Distinguished Characters De Saussure, as has already been pointed out, to a certain extent, anticipated Liebig's mineral theory. Manures and the principles of manuring "If you will tell me, Mr. De Saussure, what the South is fighting for, I can better answer you." Daisy in the Field Later on, T. De Saussure and Boussingault inquired into the conditions most favorable to assimilation. Scientific American Supplement No. 822, October 3, 1891 "And I want to see the statue of Horace de Saussure, the first man who ever got to the top of Mont Blanc," said I, with reproachful meaning in my tone. The Princess Passes This last phenomenon, since Saussure's immortal work on the Alps, has received much light, in recent times, from the labors of Venetz, Charpentier, and the intrepid and persevering observer Agassiz. COSMOS: A Sketch of the Physical Description of the Universe, Vol. 1 De Saussure was the first to draw attention to the mineral or ash constituents of the plant; and thus anticipate, to a certain extent, the subsequent famous "mineral" theory of the great Liebig. Manures and the principles of manuring "It will not be much of a war," resumed De Saussure. Daisy in the Field Here M. de Saussure, who is always more anxious to establish truth, than preserve theory, gives up the formation of the alpine strata by crystallization. Theory of the Earth, Volume 2 (of 4) Had he been a climber, an explorer—a contemporary, perhaps, of Saussure and a rival? At a Winter's Fire I here only refer to those of my experiiments in which the three-foot metallic conductor of Saussure's electrometer was neither moved upward nor downward, nor, according to Volta's proposal, armed with burning sponge. COSMOS: A Sketch of the Physical Description of the Universe, Vol. 1 To Saussure we owe the first definite statement on the different sources of the plant's food. Manures and the principles of manuring "Yes!" said De Saussure - "if it is to be permanently a minority." Daisy in the Field Notwithstanding that it is so easy to explain this appearance by the operation of natural causes, M. de Saussure proceeds in taking it in another view. Theory of the Earth, Volume 2 (of 4) Dr. Robinson, astronomer at Armagh, endeavoured to explain the matter by referring to De Saussure's explanation of the phenomena of cold caves in Italy and elsewhere; but this, too, was considered unsatisfactory. Ice-Caves of France and Switzerland Saussure began his climbing in 1760, exploring the Alps with the indomitable spirit of the discoverer and the scientist's craving for truth. The Development of the Feeling for Nature in the Middle Ages and Modern Times I shall therefore insert that given by the celebrated M. de Saussure, in his Tour amongst the Alps, of which he was one of the first and most able explorers. A tour through some parts of France, Switzerland, Savoy, Germany and Belgium I looked to see Ransom and Mr. De Saussure, but they were not in sight. Daisy in the Field M. de Saussure who will not be suspected of having any such theory in his view, will be found giving the most exemplary confirmation to that system of things. Theory of the Earth, Volume 2 (of 4) In order to explain the phenomena presented by those caves, M. Pictet adopted De Saussure's theory of the principle of caves-froides, rendering it somewhat more precise, and extending it to meet the case of ice-caves. Ice-Caves of France and Switzerland H.B. de Saussure, in 1799, attributed the phenomenon to rapid local variations of atmospheric pressure on different parts of the lake.

A tour through some parts of France, Switzerland, Savoy, Germany and Belgium "Mr. Marshall and Mr. De Saussure, do you mean?" Daisy in the Field M. de Saussure has no idea of strata formed at the bottom of the sea, being afterwards softened by means of heat and fusion. Theory of the Earth, Volume 2 (of 4) One of De Saussure's experiments, in the course of his investigation of the phenomena and causes of cold currents in caves, is worth recalling. Ice-Caves of France and Switzerland Mr. Dale inquired what "light books" he was taking to Oxford: "Saussure, Humboldt, and other works on natural philosophy and geology," he answered. The Life of John Ruskin That M. de Saussure perceived no means for that introduction, will appear from what immediately follows in that paragraph. Theory of the Earth, Volume 1 (of 4) "You do not think it pleasant, confess, Miss Randolph," said De Saussure, drawing near to look over the progress of my work. Daisy in the Field At the Tour de Fols, near St Bernard, M. de Saussure found an appearance the most distinct of its kind, and worthy to be recorded as a leading fact in matters of geology. Theory of the Earth, Volume 2 (of 4) De Saussure, a Swiss naturalist, published in the Bibliotheque Universelle, of Geneva, entertaining accounts of the Mexican Colaptes, a variety of the familiar "high hold," or golden winged woodpecker. Scientific American Supplement, No. 531, March 6, 1886 The idea had probably been suggested by scientific observations which had already been made on mountain heights by such explorers as De Luc, Saussure, Humboldt, and others. The Dominion of the Air; the story of aerial navigation M. de Saussure gives us the following observations concerning a mountain of this kind in the middle of the Alps, where the water divides in running different ways towards the sea. Theory of the Earth, Volume 1 (of 4) "Wouldn't you like to see the house of Eugene Sue?" said De Saussure. Daisy in the Field It is an observation which M. de Saussure made in his way from the valley of the Rh�ne to Geneva. Theory of the Earth, Volume 2 (of 4) The qualitative composition of ethyl alcohol was ascertained by A. L. Lavoisier, and the quantitative by N. T. de Saussure in 1808. The Project Gutenberg Encyclopedia Volume 1 of 28 There is a dry mist, or rather a diminished transparence of the air, which according to Mr. Saussure accompanies fair weather, while great transparence of air indicates rain. The Botanic Garden A Poem in Two Parts. Part 1: the Economy of Vegetation But M. de Saussure has put this matter out of doubt by describing most accurately what he had seen both in the Alps and at the city of Lyons. Theory of the Earth, Volume 1 (of 4) "I will break it up for to-day," said mamma as the carriage stopped and Mr. De Saussure came to the steps. Daisy in the Field M. de Saussure, in his second volume of Voyages dans les Alps, has given us a most interesting view of this scene, p. Theory of the Earth, Volume 2 (of 4) Have you seen a life of Madame de Staël by that Madame Neckar de Saussure, of whom Madame de Staël said, when some one asked, "What sort of woman is she?" The Life and Letters of Maria Edgeworth, Volume 1 Some of these transverse barriers were formerly pointed out by Saussure below the glacier of the Rhone, as proving how far it had once transgressed its present boundaries. The Antiquity of Man M. de Saussure has here given us an example of a calcareous Braccia, as he calls it, but which is rather a pudding stone, with veins or contractions of the mass. Theory of the Earth, Volume 1 (of 4) Mr. de Saussure gave me his arm and took me with him, as he said, to help about the luncheon. Daisy in the Field In this second volume, M. de Saussure gives us a general view with regard to the mountains which border the valley of the Rh�ne, p. Theory of the Earth, Volume 2 (of 4) This mode has been successfully followed in the journey of M. de Saussure, whose most valuable work has contributed more than any other to the advancement of science. Personal Narrative of Travels to the Equinoctial Regions of America, During the Year 1799-1804 — Volume 1 This, to be sure, would not be your case; nevertheless, I am satisfied that at Geneva, where you would be a second de Saussure, your position would be still more brilliant. Louis Agassiz: His Life and Correspondence M. de Saussure describes such a stone as having been employed in building the triumphal arch erected in honour of Augustus. Theory of the Earth, Volume 1 (of 4) "We have forgotten our agreement," said Mr. De Saussure. Daisy in the Field M. de Saussure has given us an observation of this kind, in describing the mountains through which the Rh�ne has made its way out of the Alps, at the bottom of the Vall�e. Theory of the Earth, Volume 2 (of 4) One chest contained a sextant, a dipping-needle, an apparatus to determine the magnetic variation, a few thermometers, and Saussure's hygrometer. Personal Narrative of Travels to the Equinoctial Regions of America, During the Year 1799-1804 — Volume 1 Ah! how much I prefer you in a field which is wholly your own than in one where you break in upon the measured and cautious tread, introduced by Saussure in geology. Louis Agassiz: His Life and Correspondence There were maps of mountains on the walls; also one or two lithographs of celebrated guides, and a portrait of the scientist De Saussure. A Tramp Abroad — Volume 07 "It will not be a question, when you have answered it," De Saussure said gallantly. Daisy in the Field I shall give it in M. de Saussure's own words. Theory of the Earth, Volume 2 (of 4) This result perfectly corresponds with those obtained by Lamanon and Saussure on the summits of the Peak and Etna, though in very different seasons. Personal Narrative of Travels to the Equinoctial Regions of America, During the Year 1799-1804 — Volume 1 You, too, will reconsider all this, and will yet treat the views of Saussure and Escher with more respect. Louis Agassiz: His Life and Correspondence Balmat and De Saussure discovered Mont Blanc—so to speak—but it was Smith who made it a paying property. A Tramp Abroad — Volume 07 I did not like to hear Mr. De Saussure's tongue touch themes where it was not at home. Daisy in the Field M. de Saussure found some singular masses, which attracted his attention, in examining the structure of the rocks on the left side of this little valley. Theory of the Earth, Volume 2 (of 4) Gay-Lussac and Theodore de Saussure, that in the highest as well as in the lowest regions of the atmosphere, the air equally contains 0.21 of oxygen.* Personal Narrative of Travels to the Equinoctial Regions of America, During the Year 1799-1804 — Volume 1 But seeing that the entire mountain is composed of the same limestone, De Saussure naturally concluded that it would be absurd to think that it was elevated precisely and only beneath the blocks of granite. A History of Science — Volume 3 My mother had been so much alienated by my behaviour toward Marshall and De Saussure, that I thought it needful to please her by every means in my power, short of downright violation of conscience. Daisy in the Field De Saussure, what is your estimate of life's objects? Daisy in the Field The place to which M. de Saussure here remits us is where he afterwards, in describing the Val d'Aoste, makes the following observation. Theory of the Earth, Volume 2 (of 4) I have often seen at Cumana a great scintillation of the stars of Orion and Sagittarius, when Saussure's hygrometer was at 85 degrees.

Daisy in the Field They were two Southern gentlemen, as I immediately knew them to be; MM. de Saussure and Marshall, Ransom's worthy compeers in the line of personal appearance and manner. Daisy in the Field I was not in the mood of accepting Mr. De Saussure's arm, but just then it was the only thing to do. Daisy in the Field But the observations of M. de Saussure, who has most carefully examined this subject, will leave no room to doubt of that fact. Theory of the Earth, Volume 2 (of 4) This intensity, measured with the cyanometer of Saussure, was found from November to January generally 18, never above 20 degrees. Personal Narrative of Travels to the Equinoctial Regions of America, During the Year 1799-1804 — Volume 1 De Saussure especially; but I liked Marshall best. Daisy in the Field "There were only a few dozen swords at Manasses," said De Saussure. Daisy in the Field So I thought, as I walked along the bank of the lake with Mr. De Saussure; and then I remembered "my hiding-place and my shield." Daisy in the Field M. de Saussure says that the formation of this valley depends upon the mountains themselves, and not upon the erosion of the rivers. Theory of the Earth, Volume 2 (of 4) Saussure's hygrometer, far from indicating greater humidity, often went back from 90 to 83 degrees. Personal Narrative of Travels to the Equinoctial Regions of America, During the Year 1799-1804 — Volume 1 Mr. de Saussure asked, bending as before a most deferential look upon me. Daisy in the Field Mr. De Saussure insisted, returning to the point with a willingness, I thought, to have me speak. Daisy in the Field "I have tasted it every step of the way, Mr. De Saussure." Daisy in the Field M. de Saussure, who has examined them carefully, gives demonstration of the long time during which they have remained in their present place. Theory of the Earth, Volume 2 (of 4) Mr. De Saussure's face clouded for an instant. Daisy in the Field Yes indeed," said De Saussure; "there is a question. Daisy in the Field "Can there be a more significant word?" said Mr. De Saussure. Daisy in the Field However, to do Mr. De Saussure justice, I never doubted for a moment that his heart might be in any danger of breaking if I thrust him out. Daisy in the Field M. de Saussure, who has so well observed every thing that can be perceived upon the surface of the earth, gives us the following remarks which are general to mountainous countries. Theory of the Earth, Volume 2 (of 4) "Who is estimating you, in a corner at home?" said Mr. de Saussure. Daisy in the Field "I should like, I think, to be half of two," said De Saussure, comically. Daisy in the Field De Saussure replied, with heat; "we have a right to say we will govern ourselves and sail our own boat." Daisy in the Field "You must do nothing at my command, Mr. de Saussure," I said. Daisy in the Field M. de Saussure gives a view of one of those pyramids, which will serve to illustrate this subject in the most perfect manner. Theory of the Earth, Volume 2 (of 4) Mr. de Saussure and Hugh Marshall were, I found, very intimately at home with my father and mother, and naturally they were soon on the same footing with me. Daisy in the Field "Who is Lyon, De Saussure?" my father repeated. Daisy in the Field "Wilson's Creek is the place of the battle," Mr. De Saussure went on.
