This was Wellesley's first great battle, in which he opposed 50,000 with only 4500 men. The enemy fled, leaving their artillery, etc. Assembly of (130) DIVINES, held at Westminster, 1 July, 1643, convoked by order of parliament to consider the liturgy, government, and doctrines of the church. Two members were elected for each county. The presbyterian majority adopted the Scottish covenant, and drew up the directory for public worship, a confession, and the catechisms now used by the church of Scotland. The last (1163d) meeting. was on 22 Feb. 1649; see Church of Scotland. Assent, sce Royal Assent. Assessed Taxes. By some the date is referred to Ethelbert, in 991; to Henry VIII. 1522; and to William III. 1689, when a land-tax was imposed; see Land Tax. The assessed taxes yielded in 1815 (the last year of the war), exclusively of the land-tax, 6,524,766., their highest amount. These imposts have varied in their nature and amount, according to the exigencies of the state. They were considerably advanced in 1797 and 1801 et seq., but reduced in 1816 and in subsequent years. An act for the repeal of certain assessed taxes was passed 16 & 17 Vict. c. 90, 20 Aug. 1853, explained and amended by 17 & 18 Vict. c. 1, 17 Feb. 1854.-Acts for the better securing and accounting for the Assessed and Income Taxes, 10 Aug. 1854; see Taxes and Income Tax. Changes were made in the assessed taxes, their time of collection, etc., by the Revenue Act, passed 24 June, 1869. Licenses for servants, dogs, and armorial bearings were also introduced. An act to provide for uniformity in the assessment of ratable property in the metropolis was passed 9 Aug. 1869. The "Court of General Assessment" first met 19 May, 1870. Amount received in the year ending 31 March, 1870, about 4,500,000l. Since then the assessed taxes include the land-tax and house duty only. Amount received, year 1871-2, about 2,330000; 1874-5, 2,440,000.; 1875-6, 2,496,000%; 1876-7, 2,532,000l.; 1877-8, 2,670,000l.; 1878-9, 2,720,000l.; 187980, 2,670,000%. Assiento, a contract between the king of Spain and other powers for furnishing the Spanish dominions in America with negro slaves, began with the Flemings. By the treaty of Utrecht, 13 July, 1713, the British government engaged to furnish 4800 negroes annually to Spanish America for thirty years. The contract was renewed in 1748, but given up in 1750; see Guinea. Assignats, a forced paper currency, ordered by the National Assembly of France to support public credit during the revolution, April, 1790. At one period, eight milliards, or nearly 350 millions of pounds sterling, of this paper were in circulation in France and its dependencies.-Alison. Assiguats were superseded by mandats in 1796.

John Jacob Astor (born at Waldorf, near Heidelberg, 17 July, 1763; died in New York, 29 March, 1848) left by will $400,000 to establish "a public library in the city of New York." The library was opened 9 Jan. 1854, with about 80,000 volumes. In Jan. 1856, William B. Astor, son of the founder, gave the land to double the size of the building. In 1879 John Jacob Astor (the second of that name) gave the land and directed the erection of a second new | building, which is now complete.

It was professed by Epicurus, Lucretius, and other philosophers. Spinoza was the defender of a similar doctrine (1632-77). Lucilio Vanini publicly taught atheism in France, and was condemned to be burned at Toulouse in 1619. Mathias Knutzen, of Holstein, openly confessed atheism, and had upwards of a thousand disciples in Germany about 1674; he travelled to make proselytes, and his followers were called Conscienciaries, because they held that there is no other deity than conscience. "Though a small draught of philosophy may lead a man into atheism, a deep draught will certainly bring him back again to the belief of a God."-Lord Bacon. Atheism was the ruling doctrine of the French republic, 1794 till 1804; see Materialism. Athenæa were great festivals celebrated at Athens in honor of Minerva. One was called Panathenæa, the other Chalcea; they are said to have been instituted by Erechtheus or Orpheus, 1397 or 1495 B.C.; and revived by Theseus, who caused them to be observed by all the Athenians, the first every fifth year, 1234 B.C.---Plutarch.

This 445 campaign, in which gens. Sherman and Johnston were antagonists, until the latter was relieved by Hood, is strategically one of the most interesting of the American civil war. Sherman advanced (6 May) with 98,000 men against Johnston, who was then posted and strongly fortified at Dalton with an army about half as large as that opposing him. The following are the important events of the campaign in their chronological order: Sherman demonstrated against Rocky Face Ridge (Buzzard's Roost), and sent M Pherson's army (over 20,000 strong) to gain Resaca and cut off Johnston's retreat (6 May). M Pherson failing, Sherman followed him with his whole army, and attacked Johnston, who had fallen back to Resaca.

Graham, F.R.S., master of the mint. Atmosphere, see Air. Atmospheric Railways. The idea of producing motion by atmospheric pressure was conceived by Papin, the French engineer, about 1680. Experiments were made on a line of rail, laid down across Wormwood Scrubs, London, between Shepherd's Bush and the Great Western railroad, to test the efficacy of atmospheric tubes, the working of the air-pump, and speed of carriages upon this new principle on railroads in June, 1840, and then tried for a short time on a line between Croydon and London, 1845. Atmospheric pressure was also tried and abandoned in 1848, on the South Devon line. An atmospheric railway was commenced between Dalkey and Killiney, in the vicinity of Dublin, in Sept. 1843; opened 29 March, 1844; discontinued in 1855. A similar railway was proposed to be laid down in the streets of London by Mr. T. W. Rammell in 1857. Mr. Rammell's Pneumatic Railway was put in action successfully at the Crystal Palace on 27 Aug. 1864, and following days. An act for a pneumatic railway between the Waterloo railway station and Whitehall was passed in July, 1865. Atmospheric pressure was proposed for a submarine railway from Dover to Calais in 1869; see Pneumatic Despatch. Atomic Theory, in chemistry, deals with the indivisible particles of all substances. The somewhat incoherent labors of his predecessors (such as Wenzel, in 1777) were reduced by John Dalton to four laws of combining proportion, which have received the name of "Atomic Theory." His "Chemical Philosophy," containing the exposition of his views, appeared in 1808. Dr. C. Daubeny's work on the Atomic Theory was published in 1850. In his standard of atomic weights Dalton takes hydrogen as 1. Berzelius, who commenced his elaborate researches on the subject in 1848, adopts oxygen as 100. The former standard is used in this country, the latter on the continent. The theory is accepted by some and rejected by other chemists. In 1855 Hinrichs pro pounded a new hypothetical science, Atomechanics, in which pantogen, composed of panatoms, is regarded as the primary chemical principle. Atoms. Democritus (about 400 B.C.) held that the only existing things are innumerable indestructible atoms, varying in form, and combined in obedience to mechanical laws, and that the soul consists of free, smooth, round atoms, like those of fire; and that nothing happens by chance. His philosophy was adopted by Epicurus (about 306 B.C.), whose doctrines are luminously expounded by Lucretius in his great poem De Rerum Naturâ" (On the Nature of Things), 57 B.C. The atomic philosophy, in a modified form, was recognized by Gassendi, who died A.D. 1655. 66 Atrebates, a Belgic people, subdued by Cæsar, 57 B.C.; see Artois. Attainder, ACTS OF, whereby a person not only forfeited his land, but his blood was attainted, have been numerous. Two witnesses in cases of high-treason are necessary where corruption of blood is incurred, unless the party accused shall confess, or stand mute, 7 & 8 Will. III. 1694-5.-Blackstone. The attainder of lord Russell, who was beheaded in Lincoln's-inn-fields, 21 July, 1683, was reversed under William, in 1689. The rolls and records of the acts of attainder passed in the reign of James II. were cancelled and publicly burned, 2 Oct. 1695. Among the last acts reversed was the attaint of the children of lord Edward Fitzgerald (who was implicated in the rebellion in Ireland of 1798), 1 July, 1819. In 1814 and 1833 the severity of attainders was mitigated. Several attainders reversed about 1827, and one in 1853 (the earl of Perth). Attorney (from tour, turn), a person qualified to act for another at law. The number in Edward III.'s reign was under 400 for the whole kingdom. In the 32d of Henry VI. 1454, a law reduced the practitioners in Norfolk, Norwich, and Suffolk from eighty to fourteen, and restricted their increase. The number of attorneys practising in the United Kingdom was said to be 13,824 (1872). The qualifications and practice of attorneys and solicitors are now regulated by acts passed in 1843, 1860, 1870, and 1874. By the Supreme Judicature Act all attorneys styled solicitors since Nov. 1875; see Solicitors. Attorney-general, a law officer of the crown, appointed by letters-patent. He has to exhibit informations and prosecute for the king in matters criminal, and to file bills in exchequer for any claims concerning the crown in inheritance or profit.
