In 'A Study in Scarlet': "The most commonplace crime is often the most mysterious, because it presents no new or special features from which deductions may be drawn."
In 'The Sign of Four': "Crime is commonplace, existence is commonplace, and no qualities save those which are commonplace have any function upon earth."
In 'The Red-Headed League': "As a rule, the more bizarre a thing is the less mysterious it proves to be. It is your commonplace, featureless crimes which are really puzzling, just as a commonplace face is the most difficult to identify."
In 'A Case of Identity': "Depend upon it there is nothing so unnatural as the commonplace."
In 'The Boscombe Valley Mystery': "Singularity is almost invariably a clue. The more featureless and commonplace a crime is, the more difficult is it to bring it home."
I think that about covers it.

No. Holmes never actually made a profession of boxing, though he did enjoy doing it.
Usually, Holmes is very encouraging at first, making comments like - "Good... good...Excellent!" - "What do you make of this...." - Though after Watson has made his deduction, Holmes turns around and says something along the lines of, "I am afraid, my dear Watson, that most of your conclusions were erroneous." From that point, Holmes will go off on his rant about where Watson went wrong in his deductions and almost with an arrogant pride, Holmes will point out what he (Sherlock Holmes) had deduced, and how easy it was for Holmes to have come to such an assumption.

Holmes says to Mortimer: "I observe from your forefinger that you make your own cigarettes." Holmes presumably noticed tobacco stains, or, perhaps, Mortimer let a few cigarettes burn until they scorched his fingers.
Actually, it would be "remarks" if the Minister is to make more than one remark... If the Minister will only make ONE remark, the word "remark" should be preceded by the word "a".
No.

Thomas Jefferson, in his book "Commonplace Book", quotes Cesare Beccaria on gun control.Laws that forbid the carrying of arms ... disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes ... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.
