llauuai ( Heb., ' born on a festival '), one of the 

 minor prophets of the Old Testament. He was 

 among those who returned from the Babylonian 

 exile with Zerubbabel and Joshua. The building 

 of the temple begun by them had for some time 

 been at a stand -still, and several years of scarcity 

 had followed. In the second year of Darius (520) 

 H aggai prophesied that the dearth was due to the 

 divine displeasure with the settlers for adorning 

 their own houses while the house of God remained 

 unfinished. The personal history of Haggai beyond 

 what is given in his book is unknown. His prophecy 

 is entirely connected with the construction of the 

 temple, and closes with a promise to Zerubbabel, 

 in whom he appears to have expected the fulfilment 

 of the promises of the prophets regarding the ideal 

 son of David. His style is monotonous and weak, 

 which some have ascribed to the pressure of troublous 

 times, others to his advanced age, concluding from 

 ii. 3 that he was among those who seventy years 

 before were carried into exile and had seen the 

 old temple. There are commentaries by Hitzig 

 (3d ed. 1863; 4th ed. by Steiner, 1881), Ewald 

 ( 1867 ; in vol. v. of Eng. trans, of his Prophets, 

 1878), Keil (2d ed. 1873), Reinke (1868), and Van 

 Eaton (Lectures, ed. by Robinson, Pitteburg, 

 1888), 



Haggard, HENRY RIDER, novelist, was born 

 of a good Norfolk family at Bradenham Hall, 

 June 22, 1856, and was educated at Ipswich 

 gram mar-school. He went out to Natal in 1875 

 as secretary to Sir Henry Bulwer, and next year 

 accompanied Sir Theophilus Shepstone to the 

 Transvaal, where he served until 1879, when he 

 returned to England to marry and settle down 

 to a literary life. His first book, Cetewayo and 

 //i'.v ir/ufe, Neighbours (1882), pleased the Cape 

 politicians, but attracted no attention elsewhere. 

 It was in a new kind of fiction that he was to make 

 his successes. However, his Dawn ( 1 884 ) and '/'/ 

 MV/.-A'.v llt-itil ( iss.">) were only successful after the 

 immediate, extraordinary, and not undeserved 

 popularity of Kim/ Solomon's Mines ( 1885 ). This 

 wa- too quickly followed by She ( 1887 ), Jess ( 1 Ss7 ), 



Daughter, ./<>/> llnxt,\ \-,-. Haggard has fertile 

 invention, vigour, and novelty enough, but 

 not the rare faculty of making things seem 

 true; while his style is crude and lacks in 

 distinction, his grasp of character is feeble. His 

 lights indeed are powerful but not Homeric, and 

 reek with needless blood and artificial gruesome- 



IIM pages are bright with vivid but Hoioe- 

 what garish African colours. Hii chief merit U 

 his rejidablerics-i ; his greatest praise hw pheno- 

 menal success ; for with all his gifts he in utill but 

 little of the artist, and hardly to be taken seriously 

 as a novelist. 



HaggiH, a Scotch dish, called by Uurn.- the 

 ' great chieftain o' the puddin' race,' U usually 

 made with the large stomach-bag of a sheep, also 

 one of the smaller bags called the king's hood, 

 together with the lights, the liver, and the heart. 

 Alter the stomach -bags have been well cleansed, the 

 small bag is boiled along with t he pluck. A quarter 

 of the liver is now grated down, and the heart, 

 lights, and small bag are minced very fine along 

 with a large onion and enough beef -suet to moisten 

 the rneal. Two small teacupfuls of oatmeal pre- 

 viously crisped' before the fire are added, with 

 salt, and black and Jamaica pepper. The whole 

 is now stirred together, and put in the large bag, 

 which, however, must not be much more than half 

 filled ; it is sewed up, and afterwards boiled for 

 about three hours.

Hague* THE (Dutch ' Gravenhaae, ' the count* 

 hedge ), the capital of the Netherlands, and the 

 residence of the court, stands 2 miles from the 

 North Sea and 15 NNW. of Rotterdam. It is one 

 of the handsomest cities in the country, leing 

 intersected by canals and shady avenues of lime- 

 trees, and having many fine public buildings and 

 private houses. In the centre of the city is the 

 vijver, or Fish-pond, to the south of which stands 

 the old castle of the counts of Holland. It consists 

 of two courts, an outer and an inner ; in this latter 

 are the 13th-century Gothic knight's hall and the 

 chambers in which the Dutch parliament holds its 

 sittings. On one side of the outer court ( Buitenhof) 

 stands the gate-tower, which was formerly used as 

 a state-prison, and in which the brothers De Witt 

 were confined till dragged thence and torn to pieces 

 by the populace (1672). The most noteworthy 

 amongst the public buildings and institutions of 

 the place are the picture-gallery, with a splendid 

 collection of works uy native painters ( Paul Potter's 

 'Bull' and Rembrandt's 'Lesson in Anatomy'); 

 the royal library, with 200,000 volumes, 4000 M&S., 

 and collections of coins and gems ; the municipal 

 museum, with several Dutch pictures ; the Museum 

 Meermanno-Westreenen, containing a collection of 

 early printed books ; the ethnographic museum, rich 

 in Chinese and Japanese objects ; the town-house ; 

 and the royal palaces. The church of St James is 

 the most important ecclesiastical edifice ; it dates 

 from the 14th century, and is Gothic in style. The 

 Hague is the seat of several learned societies, 

 as the Indian Society and the Institute for the 

 Language, Land, and People of the Dutch Indies. 

 Amongst the numerous statues that adorn the city 

 are those of William I. (two in number), William 

 II., Spinoza, Bernhard of Saxe- Weimar, and the 

 monument which commemorates the deliverance 

 from the French. Close to the town is the leau- 

 tiful pleasure-park called 'The Wood,' in which 

 stands a royal residence (1647) with the magnifi- 

 cent so-called 'Orange Hall.' Ryswick, where the 

 treat v of lt>!7 was signed, is in the immediate 

 vicinity. The Hague is connected by lieautiful 

 roads with Scheveningen, a fashionable bathing- 

 place on the coast of the North Sea, which is incor- 

 porated municipally with The Hague. The city 

 owes its importance mainly to the fact that it is 

 the residence of the court and the capital of the 

 country ; but it has also considerable manufactur- 

 ing industry, as iron-founding, copper and lead 

 smelting, cannon-founding, printing, furniture and
