Nest Mothly Illagashml The Flouse of Commons, resembling a. it does in many instances a popular assembly, would seem to present the most ample and (mumble field for the display of eloquence ; nor are time and means wanting to the Members of that body, generally speaking, for the cultivation of it. Yet there are . circomstauces, connected with the practical situa tion of that branch of the Legislature, which nar• row the cultivation of eloquent public speaking. Not that the Commons, as individuals, want acute ness of feeling, refinement of intellect, and sensi bility to those appeals, which ardent imagina tions are prone to make under every disadvantage of situation ; but it is well understood that, as a body, they seldom came together on great ques tions in that unsettled state of opinion which is ca pable of exciting high oratorical exertion, as being liable to be turned one way or another by the sc trial eloquence of ■n individual Member. Whe ther a proposition originate at one side of the !louse or the other, the mover of it, before he rises to de velupe and enforce it, knows to an unit the num bers who will support or resist his motion. He does not hope, that by any argument which he can use, by any sublime or pathetic emotions which he can excite, he shall add one to the list of his friend., or remove one from that of Ili, opponents. Thus the character of a parliamentary speech differs, in one of the most material ingredients of eloquence. from tho►e ancient models, by which we are accus tomed to estimate productioot of this description. It is also to be observed, that a Member of the Abuse of Commons addressee his speech, not di rectly to the Gentlemen around him, but to the Ilipeaker. Ito strict parliamentary language, he user only to deliver his opinion upon the question fat drb lie. This is his privilege. He ha.s nothing to do with the °pitmans of other Members; for their privilege is equally the same with hie own. He may frequently wish that his own views of a measure should be adopted by a majority ; but his means of conveying that wish, and of im• pre.siug it upon► others, must be found in a or.. customs and indirect course, which is not without very considerable disedvantages to oratorical energy. Indeed, the first duty of a Member ►eems to be to express his own oploion clearly and fairly. Any thing beyond this appears to he more than he is called upon to do, unless, from office or from expert...ice, lie may carry with him an authority on particular These advantage'', however, were felt more strongly by men of genius in former time,, than in those in which we live. In the I lome of Lords, the Peers address their body directly. vrilinna PO" iog through the medium of the lVuolsock ; but, in in all other reperts, they laboured under the same disadvantages as the COIIIIIIOII6, so long us the ef fect of their speeches w.is confined within the walls of the House itself. While that was the case, no Member of either House hail a motive powerful enough to stimulate him to that exertion, which success iu oratory absolutely requires. But. as 110091 as these speeches found their way through the press to the public eat —os soon es a Pee► or a Com moner felt that, an addressing the protectors or the repre•eutatives of the people, he vim alto, not in a mere constitutional, but literal sense. addressing the people theinselver, and that his words would be heard not only throughout the kingdom, but the most remote of our dependencies, then was a mo tive discoverer! which roused exertion to energy. Since this change has taken place, which hes produced, as it acre, an unlimited eillargement of the audteicr. on orator in Parliament has in one respect even greater advantages than Cicero pos seared, when he harangued the Roman Senate. Accordingly, we have not been without men who have turned those advantages to effect : the elo quence ofChathom, Burke, Sheridan, and Grattan, has not yet ceased to vibrate in our ears. Still it may be disputed, whether any of these great speakers come up to the standard of true ora tory. as it was felt and understood by the ancients. Perhaps Sheridan came nearest to the math. But it may also be disputed whether it be ne cessary, fur any personal or political purpose, to come exactly up to this standard of excellence. even if it were practicable. We take Demosthenes and Cicero to be the models of the art ; yet the latter declares, that toot only his own productions, but those of the Athenian, fall short of the perfec tion which he desired. Ito rant arida. et eapaces mete mores, be exclaim., as semplr aliveid immew sum itfinitainque deside►ent. 'rise ancients would allow nu man to be au orator, so exalted was their ides of the character, unless he war gifted with an influence over the passions, which was almost more than human. His words must roll along ins deep, brilliant, and continued stream, filling the ear with its harmony, and overawing the soul with its ma jesty. if the people be sunk ire despair, be must rouse them to a sense of glory—if they he lii tu mult, he must hush the wild storm—if they be in- Wrested by pride, he toast heed their stubborn spirit, by the magic wooden of his torque. Guilt must turn pale beneath the terrors of his indignant voice—innocence must smile in security beneath his omnipotent sceptre. He must have upon his language that spell which awakens or composes the mottoes of the human soul ; and whether he haw* to contend with power or prejudice, with the pas. ions of the rude, or the interests of the enlighten ed, he must bear down every obstacle by the irre ►istible torrent of his eloqueuce. But where, iii this cola climate, shall we find an audience capable of allowing their feelings to be wound up to such • height, ilia they will recognise and exult iu the sway of a godlike intelligence ? Mr. Burke, in the flo e f renz y o f hi s indig estion against the French Revolutio n , p ro d uce d a''clegger from his bosom one night in the House of Com mons, as tke most expressive emblem of the de signs which the republicans had in contemplation. But what war the effect of this extraordinary illus tration ? Some Members deemed the sego mad ; other, scarcely suppressed their laughter ; and his saw attached friends blushed for the eccentricity of the thing, while they endeavoured, ineffec lastly, to work up their minds to that degree of enthusiasm which would enable them to praise it. That great van felt • zeal upon the subject of French affairs, in the warmth of which no other finned, at that time, could entirely correspond. In bre couceptietis, 'here was swesething of that en - ~_~~~ ale , . ..~ lmordinary elevation and Are, which seem to }orlon g more to prophetic inspiration, than to political saga city. But he was mistaken' in thinking that his auditors were as ardently excited as himself. or that they were sufficiently prepared fur such an illustra tion as this. For him it was scarcely strong enough; for them it was ettmvagant. Yet the fervid glow of feeling. peculiar, 1 am afraid. to the Greeks and Romans, not only sus. tained. but encouraged. applauded, nay demand ed, flights of oratory as great, if not greater than this. Witness the sublime oath by which Demos thenes made his fellow.eitizens forget the dims. trona battle of Chanute*. " No. my fellow. citizens, no; you have not erred. I swear by the manes of those heroes, who fought for the some cause in the plains of Marathon and Plata,* I" Cicero, in one of his vpeechrs against Verres, after painting in the strongest colours the ignominious death of a Roman citizen, whom that infamous praetor had caused to be crucified, breaks out into the following hold amplification t—" If I painted these horrors of this scene, not to Roman not to the allies of one state, not to those who have ever heard of the Kumar, name, not even to men. blot to brute creatures; or 'VIM to go farther, if in some desolase solitude, I lifted up my voice in complaint and Ismeotation to the rocks and to the siountaina, yet would these mate and inani mate parts or nature he moved at such a mon. strous and disgratefut`ontrage as this."9—Shuk speare has rendered Mark Aotony's exhibition of the rube of Caesar familiar to us. To whit a state of excitement did that artful intriguer inflame the feelings of the people; and how susceptible. how quick, how " feather-sunned" must those feel ings have been, when such was the effect of Ass. toss's address upon their minds, that they tore up the benches and the tables in the forum (as Plu tarch relates) to make a funeral pile for the dead boly. Not content with duly performing the last rites towards one, who they must have known me ditated, in his life, the destruction of ill their an cient privileges, they snatched the burning brands from the pile, and went to attack the houses of those whom, until the close of Isis harangue, An tony dared not to call conspirators. His grandfather, of the same name. who was a much better orator than he, produced a marvellous effect, not on a popular assembly. but WI a full bench of Judges, by exposing the armor's of a military client, whom he defended on a charge of sedition. That client was his friend ; to sure him from banishment was the object of his as:dress; and I,e hesitated not 'ors mingle much of personal feeling and entreaty in all the passion which he ex.- reseed. Ila saw near him that esteemed friend, whom be remembered to have been Consul, to have been a General distinguished by the Senate, to have umlauted the steps of the capitol in tri umph, but whom lie now beheld reduced to the condition of an scccused person, clothed in mourn ing robes, and in danger of being banished from country. But Antouy did not yield to the ar dour of his owls breast. until, by dwelling on the sorrows and dejection of the accused, he had suc ceeded in moving the Judges even to tears; then be tore open the vest of the old warrior, sheered the honourable pears which lie received in n 11111.• taming the glory Si some, and he appealed to gods, to two), to citizens, and fiisnds, whether such a man ought to 'be banished ? His cleat was saved. This, then, is the great and disadvantageous difference between Is and the ancients—the dif ference to the chararterr, betwersi a Boman or an Athenian, and an English audielice. This essential differelice pervades our senate, our forum, and our popular assemblies ; and it must necessaiily have a proportional effect in reducing the rtandard of our eloquence; for, surely. we are not destitute of all the other means of success in that brilliant deport ment of literature. Philosophy, poetry, history, and the arts, have each arrived to a degree of per fectiou its this country. which, in Rome at least, Wes scarcely surpassed. The graces of style, the vivid lights of fancy, the associations of imagery and of thought, which are most apt to ex. cite emotions, are thoroughly understood, and by rainy of oar writers most felicitously pursued. Civil liberty, which is admitted to be as necessary to Use support of eloquence as pure air is to the sustenance of animal life. is with us as abund antly enjoyed, mid as highly valued, as it ever has been in any age or nazi .

Ministers were fully impresses' with the intporiasce of the 'sesame, and a Select Committee was appututed to conssiar Mr. elfortes report. The report of this Committee was read, which, after re citing Mr. Telford's report, gave it as the opinion of the Committee that the Sledge to question was a great national object, and worthy the attealiuu of Parhameat. Major CURRIE then awed, that, although the measuie met the decided approval of Government, Ministers were nut di-posed to supply the matey •Ithout proper security. A letter was read from Mr. Gladstone to Mr. Evrart, of Liverpool, stating that he (Mr. ) had code-avowed, at a meetitig held at life Bettie, to impress else itstp.rtance of the subject on the minds of the kiloliters, but be was out able to obtain their conical to advance the money without security for the interest. The only mode thought of was, in additional postage of one peony on single kit.,. to and from Ireland, mid a proportionable extra charge upon others, and placing a turnpike on the Bridge, to compensate fur ferriage. Meetings had been heW in Liverpool and Mma cheater, at which the measure wits looked upon as highly important, and the increase of postage was client fully sub mitted to. A letter was also read trust Mr. Shaw, M.P. for Dublin, which slated that he had obtained be consent ut the nierchauts and others in that place fur the proposed in crease of p or tage.
