Principles of Environmental Science: Inquiry and Applications is perfect
for the one-semester non-majors environmental science course. True to
its title the goal of this concise text is to provide an up-to-date
introductory view of essential themes in environmental science along
with offering students numerous opportunities to practice scientific
thinking and active learning.

William Cunningham is an Emeritus Professor at the University of

Minnesota where he taught for 36 years in the Departments of Botany
and Genetics and Cell Biology as well as the Conservation Biology
Program, the Institute for Social, Economic, and Ecological
Sustainability, the Center for Environmental Learning and Leadership,
and the McArthur Program in Global Change. He received his Ph.D. in
Botany from the University of Texas in 1963 and spent two years at
Purdue University as a postdoctoral fellow. At various times, he has been
a visiting scholar in Sweden, Norway, Indonesia, and China, as well as
several universities and research institutions in the United States.
Dr. Cunningham has devoted himself to education and teaching
development at the undergraduate level in biology. He began his
educational career in structural biology but for the last 10-15 years has
concentrated on environmental science, teaching courses such as Social
Uses of Biology; Garbage, Government, and the Globe; Environmental
Ethics; and Conservation History. Within the past four years, he has
received both of the two highest teaching honors that the University of
Minnesota bestows -- The Distinguished Teaching Award and a $15,000
Amoco Alumni Award. He has served as a Faculty Mentor for younger
faculty at the university, sharing the knowledge and teaching skills that
he has gained during his distinguished career.
Mary Ann Cunningham teaches geography and geographic information
systems (GIS), and environmental studies at Vassar College,
Poughkeepsie, NY. Her research involves using GIS to assess landscape-
level problems in conservation and biodiversity. In particular, she is
interested in understanding the nature of fragmentation in grassland
environments and the effects of fragmentation on the make-up of bird
communities. The agricultural landscapes where she has been working
represent a complex and fascinating interaction of issues concerning
working landscapes, resource use, remnant wildlife habitat, and
landscape aesthetics. It is at the intersection of these issues that she likes
to try and understand the geography of physical environments. Mary
Ann earned a PhD in Geography at the University of Minnesota, an MA
in Geography at the University of Oregon, and a BA in Geology at
Carleton College. --Este texto se refiere a la edición loose_leaf.

8. The Provisional Constitution adopted by the Seceded States differs from the Constitution of
the United States in several important particulars. The alterations and additions are as follows:

ALTERATIONS.
1st. The Provisional Constitution differs from the other in this: That the legislative powers of the
Provisional Government are vested in the Congress now assembled, and this body exercises all the
functions that are exercised by either or both branches of the United States Government.
2d. The Provisional President holds his office for one year, unless sooner superseded by the
establishment of a permanent Government.
3d. Each State is erected into a distinct judicial district, the judge having all the powers
heretofore vested in the district and circuit courts; and the several district judges together compose
the supreme bench—a majority of them constituting a quorum.
4th. Whenever the word “Union” occurs in the United States Constitution the word
“Confederacy” is substituted.

THE FOLLOWING ARE THE ADDITIONS.

 1st. The President may veto any separate appropriation without vetoing the whole bill in which it
is contained.
2d. The African slave-trade is prohibited.
3d. Congress is empowered to prohibit the introduction of slaves from any State not a member of
this Confederacy.
4th. All appropriations must be upon the demand of the President or heads of departments.

OMISSIONS.
1st. There is no prohibition on members of Congress holding other offices of honor and
emolument under the Provisional Government.
2d. There is no provision for a neutral spot for the location of a seat of government, or for sites
for forts, arsenals, and dock-yards; consequently there is no reference made to the territorial powers
of the Provisional Government.
3d. The section in the old Constitution in reference to capitation and other direct tax is omitted;
also, the section providing that no tax or duty shall be laid on any exports.
4th. The prohibition on States keeping troops or ships of war in time of peace is omitted.
5th. The Constitution being provisional merely, no provision is made for its ratification.

AMENDMENTS.
1st. The fugitive slave clause of the old Constitution is so amended as to contain the word “slave,”
and to provide for full compensation in cases of abduction or forcible rescue on the part of the State
in which such abduction or rescue may take place.
2d. Congress, by a vote of two-thirds, may at any time alter or amend the Constitution.

TEMPORARY PROVISIONS.
1st. The Provisional Government is required to take immediate steps for the settlement of all
matters between the States forming it and their other late confederates of the United Slates in
relation to the public property and the public debt.
2d. Montgomery is made the temporary seat of government.
3d. This Constitution is to continue one year, unless altered by a two-thirds vote or superseded
by a permanent Government.

13. The attempted removal of these heavy guns from Allegheny Arsenal, late in December, 1860,
created intense excitement. A monster mass meeting assembled at the call of the Mayor of the city,
and citizens of all parties aided in the effort to prevent the shipment. Through the interposition of
Hon. J. K. Moorhead, Hon. R. McKnight, Judge Shaler, Judge Wilkins, Judge Shannon, and others
inquiry was instituted, and a revocation of the order obtained. The Secessionists in Congress bitterly
complained of the “mob law” which thus interfered with the routine of governmental affairs.—

22. On the 23d of July, 1861, the Attorney-General, in answer to a letter from the United States
Marshal of Kansas, inquiring whether he should assist in the execution of the fugitive slave law,
wrote:

Attorney-General’s Office, July 23, 1861.

J. L. McDowell, U. S. Marshal, Kansas:

Your letter, of the 11th of July, received 19th, (under frank of Senator Lane, of Kansas,) asks
advice whether you should give your official services in the execution of the fugitive slave law.
It is the President’s constitutional duty to “take care that the laws be faithfully executed.” That
means all the laws. He has no right to discriminate, no right to execute the laws he likes, and leave
unexecuted those he dislikes. And of course you and I, his subordinates, can have no wider latitude of
discretion than he has. Missouri is a State in the Union. The insurrectionary disorders in Missouri are
but individual crimes, and do not change the legal status of the State, nor change its rights and
obligations as a member of the Union.
A refusal by a ministerial officer to execute any law which properly belongs to his office, is an
official misdemeanor, of which I have no doubt the President would take notice. Very respectfully

EDWARD BATES.

yeas 197,505, nays 337,984. In 1864 a like proposition was defeated—yeas 85,406, nays 224,336.
In 1862, in August, a vote was had in the State of Illinois, on several propositions relating to
negroes and mulattoes, with this result:
 For excluding them from the State 171,893
Against 71,306

27. December 23, 1862—Jefferson Davis issued a proclamation of outlawry against Major
General B. F. Butler, the last two clauses of which are:
Third. That all negro slaves captured in arms be at once delivered over to the executive
authorities of the respective States to which they belong, to be dealt with according to the laws of said
States.
Fourth. That the like orders be executed in all cases with respect to all commissioned officers of
the United States when found serving in company with said slaves in insurrection against the
authorities of the different States of this Confederacy.
28. McPherson’s History, page 317.
29. This act is in those words:
Be it enacted, &c., That hereafter every person elected or appointed to any office of honor or
profit under the government of the United States, either in the civil, military, or naval departments of
the public service, excepting the President of the United States, shall, before entering upon the duties
of such office, and before being entitled to any of the salary or other emoluments thereof, take and
subscribe the following oath or affirmation: “I, A B, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I have never
voluntarily borne arms against the United States since I have been a citizen thereof; that I have
voluntarily given no aid, countenance, counsel, or encouragement to persons engaged in armed
hostility thereto; that I have never sought nor accepted nor attempted to exercise the functions of any
office whatever, under any authority or pretended authority, in hostility to the United States; that I
have not yielded a voluntary support to any pretended government, authority, power, or constitution
within the United States, hostile or inimical thereto; and I do further swear (or affirm) that, to the
best of my knowledge and ability, I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States
against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I
take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion, and that I will well
and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter; so help me God;” which
said oath, so taken and signed, shall be preserved among the files of the Court, House of Congress, or
Department to which the said office may appertain. And any person who shall falsely take the said
oath shall be guilty of perjury, and on conviction, in addition to the penalties now prescribed for that
offense, shall be deprived of his office, and rendered incapable forever after, of holding any office or
place under the United States.

79. In answer to an address of Governor Eustis, denouncing the conduct of the
peace party during the war, the House of Representatives of Massachusetts, in
June, 1823, say, “The change of the political sentiments evinced in the late
elections forms indeed a new era in the history of our commonwealth. It is the
triumph of reason over passion; of patriotism over party spirit. Massachusetts has
returned to her first love, and is no longer a stranger in the Union. We rejoice that
though, during the last war, such measures were adopted in this state as
occasioned double sacrifice of treasure and of life, covered the friends of the nation
with humiliation and mourning, and fixed a stain on the page of our history, a
redeeming spirit has at length arisen to take away our reproach, and restore to us
our good name, our rank among our sister states, and our just influence in the
Union.
“Though we would not renew contentions, or irritate wantonly, we believe that
there are cases when it is necessary we should ‘wound to heal.’ And we consider it
among the first duties of the friends of our national government, on this return of
power, to disavow the unwarrantable course pursued by this state, during the late
war, and to hold up the measures of that period as beacons; that the present and
succeeding generations may shun that career which must inevitably terminate in
the destruction of the individual or party who pursues it; and may learn the
important lesson, that, in all times, the path of duty is the path of safety; and that it
is never dangerous to rally around the standard of our country.”

81. It appears at p. 6 of the “Account” that by a vote of the House of
Representatives of Massachusetts, (260 to 290) delegates to this convention were
ordered to be appointed to consult upon the subject “of their public grievances and
concerns,” and upon “the best means of preserving their resources,” and for
procuring a revision of the constitution of the United States, “more effectually to
secure the support and attachment of all the people, by placing all upon the basis
of fair representation.”
The convention assembled at Hartford on the 15th December, 1814. On the
next day it was
Resolved, That the most inviolable secrecy shall be observed by each member
of this convention, including the secretary, as to all propositions, debates, and
proceedings thereof, until this injunction shall be suspended or altered.
On the 24th of December, the committee appointed to prepare and report a
general project of such measures as may be proper for the convention to adopt,
reported among other things,—
“1. That it was expedient to recommend to the legislatures of the states the
adoption of the most effectual and decisive measures to protect the militia of the
states from the usurpations contained in these proceedings.” [The proceedings of
Congress and the executive, in relation to the militia and the war.]
“2. That it was expedient also to prepare a statement, exhibiting the necessity
which the improvidence and inability of the general government have imposed
upon the states of providing for their own defence, and the impossibility of their
discharging this duty, and at the same time fulfilling the requisitions of the general
government, and also to recommend to the legislatures of the several states to
make provision for mutual defence, and to make an earnest application to the
government of the United States, with a view to some arrangement whereby the
state may be enabled to retain a portion of the taxes levied by Congress, for the
purpose of self-defence, and for the reimbursement of expenses already incurred
on account of the United States.
“3. That it is expedient to recommend to the several state legislatures certain
amendments to the constitution, viz.,—
“That the power to declare or make war, by the Congress of the United States,
be restricted.
“That it is expedient to attempt to make provision for restraining Congress in
the exercise of an unlimited power to make new states, and admit them into the
Union.
“That an amendment be proposed respecting slave representation and slave
taxation.”
On the 29th of December, 1814, it was proposed “that the capacity of
naturalized citizens to hold offices of trust, honor, or profit ought to be restrained,”
&c.
The subsequent proceedings are not given at large. But it seems that the report
of the committee was adopted, and also a recommendation of certain measures (of
the character of which we are not informed) to the states for their mutual defence;
and having voted that the injunction of secrecy, in regard to all the debates and
proceedings of the convention, (except so far as relates to the report finally
adopted,) be continued, the convention adjourned sine die, but as was supposed, to
meet again when circumstances should require it.
82. I refer to the authority of Chief Justice Marshall in the case of Jonathan
Robbins. I have not been able to refer to the speech, and speak from memory.

85. All the series were published in 1860 by Follet, Foster & Co., Columbus,
Ohio.
 86. The dominion of Canada has since imposed compound duties upon a large
number of articles.
87. In the British Almanac of 1881 it is stated that meat is eaten in Ireland by
only 59 per cent. of the farm laborers, and in quantity only four and one-half
ounces per week.
88. The portion of this clause within brackets has been amended by the 14th
amendment, 2nd section.
89. This clause has been superseded and annulled by the 12th amendment.
90. From W. J. McDonald’s “Constitution, Rules and Manual.”
91. New Jersey withdrew her consent to the ratification April —, 1868.
92. Oregon withdrew her consent to the ratification October 15, 1868.
93. Ohio withdrew her consent to the ratification January —, 1868.
94. North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, and Virginia had previously
rejected the amendment.
95. New York withdrew her consent to the ratification January 5, 1870.
96. Ohio had previously rejected the amendment May 4, 1869.
97. New Jersey had previously rejected the amendment.
98. This arrangement is changed by the 8th rule.
99. The former practice of the Senate referred to in this paragraph has been
changed by the following rule:
[The final question upon the second reading of every bill, resolution,
constitutional amendment, or motion, originating in the Senate and requiring
three readings previous to being passed, shall be, “whether it shall be engrossed
and read a third time?” and no amendment shall be received for discussion at the
third reading of any bill, resolution, amendment, or motion, unless by unanimous
consent of the members present; but it shall at all times be in order before the final
passage of any such bill, resolution, constitutional amendment, or motion, to move
its commitment; and should such commitment take place, and any amendment be
reported by the committee, the said bill, resolution, constitutional amendment, or
motion, shall be again read a second time, and considered as in Committee of the
Whole, and then the aforesaid question shall be again put.—Rule 26.]
100. This rule has been modified so as to specify the questions entitled to
preference. The rule is now as follows:
Rule 43. When a question is under debate, no motion shall be received but to
adjourn, to adjourn to a day certain, or that, when the Senate adjourn, it shall be to
a day certain; to take a recess, to proceed to the consideration of the executive
business, to lay on the table, to postpone indefinitely, to postpone to a day certain,
to commit, or to amend: which several motions shall have precedence in the order
in which they stand arranged, and the motions relating to adjournment, to proceed
to the consideration of executive business, and to lay on the table, shall be decided
without debate.
101. In filling up blanks, the largest sum and longest time shall be first put.
Rule 32.
102. The rule now fixes a limitation.
103. This rule has been so amended as to except Indian treaties; which shall be
considered and acted upon in open Senate, unless the same shall be transmitted by
the President to the Senate in confidence.
104. This rule has since been modified by the U. S. Senate.
105. Liable to arrest for misdemeanor.

1.F.

considerable effort to identify, do copyright research on,
transcribe and proofread works not protected by U.S. copyright

these efforts, Project Gutenberg™ electronic works, and the
medium on which they may be stored, may contain “Defects,”
such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or corrupt

property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other

Section 2. Information about the Mission of

Project Gutenberg™
Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of
electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new
computers. It exists because of the efforts of hundreds of
volunteers and donations from people in all walks of life.

Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the

assistance they need are critical to reaching Project
Gutenberg™’s goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™
collection will remain freely available for generations to come. In
2001, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was
created to provide a secure and permanent future for Project
Gutenberg™ and future generations. To learn more about the
Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and how your
efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 and the
Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org.

Section 3. Information about the Project

Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non-
profit 501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the
laws of the state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by
the Internal Revenue Service. The Foundation’s EIN or federal
tax identification number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the
Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation are tax
deductible to the full extent permitted by U.S. federal laws and
your state’s laws.

The Foundation’s business office is located at 809 North 1500

West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887. Email contact
links and up to date contact information can be found at the
Foundation’s website and official page at
www.gutenberg.org/contact

Section 4. Information about Donations to

the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
Foundation
Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without
widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission
of increasing the number of public domain and licensed works
that can be freely distributed in machine-readable form
accessible by the widest array of equipment including outdated
equipment. Many small donations ($1 to $5,000) are particularly
important to maintaining tax exempt status with the IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws

regulating charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of
the United States. Compliance requirements are not uniform
and it takes a considerable effort, much paperwork and many
fees to meet and keep up with these requirements. We do not
solicit donations in locations where we have not received written
confirmation of compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or
determine the status of compliance for any particular state visit
www.gutenberg.org/donate.

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states

where we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know
of no prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from
donors in such states who approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot

make any statements concerning tax treatment of donations
received from outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp
our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current

donation methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a
number of other ways including checks, online payments and
credit card donations. To donate, please visit:
www.gutenberg.org/donate.

Section 5. General Information About Project

Gutenberg™ electronic works
Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
Gutenberg™ concept of a library of electronic works that could
be freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
distributed Project Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose
network of volunteer support.

Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several

printed editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by
copyright in the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus,
we do not necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any
particular paper edition.

Most people start at our website which has the main PG search
facility: www.gutenberg.org.

This website includes information about Project Gutenberg™,

including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg
Literary Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new
eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter to hear
about new eBooks.
