BROUG HAM, ESQ. A 8 LORD /LECTOR 01' THE UNIVERSITY OF GI,AeGOLY. ' i GLASGOW, APRIL 6. The Very Reverend Principal MiFarlan having stated that, in agreement with the statutes of the University, the election of Mr. Brougham had been made known to that Gentleman, and that he had accepted the office of Lord Rector, then proceeded to administer the oath of office : after which Mr. 13rougharn thus addrestecl his very numerous audience : " It now becomes me to return my sincere and respectful thanks for my election to an office which has been filled by so many great men, whose merits might make any comparison formidable even to a more worthy successor. Whilst I desire you to accept of these thanks, excuse the address and the form which I now adopt, which I think better than any unpreme ditated discourse, because my remarks will more certainly appear to be the fruit of mature deliberation, and that 1 may not be supposed to discharge an important office in a perfunc tory manner. 1 feel very sensibly, if I urge you to be intent on the pursuit of learning, which flourishes under the kindly shelter of these roofs, that I may weary my youthful audience; and, if I give my advice, I may seem to trespass on the pro vince of those very able and learned persons under whose care you have the happiness to be placed. But 1 would nevertheless expose myself to the .charge for the sake of joining my voice with theirs in entreating you to believe how incomparably the present season is the nest precious of your whole lives. This is not the less true, because it is often inculcated on you that the period of youth is by far the best fitted for the improve. client of the mind. In the retirement of a college you have an opportunity of laying the foundation of whatever is noble or excellent: .Now every thing has the attractive power of novelty-- attention is sharpened by curiosity, and the memory is suec_ep tible:of deep impressions, to a degree unknown in future life. For the distracting cares of the world cross not the threshold of these calm retreats e its distant cries and. bustle are hut faintly heard ; .the struggles of parties ere viewed afar off, and the prospect is rendered more soft by the scenes of beauty which are below. Yet a little while, and you will be plunged into these bitter waters ; then you will look back on the peaceful regions you have quitted for ever. , But it will be to your own fault if you look back with a feeling of repentance or shame, Every hour squandered here in unprofitable delay will then rise up against you, and be the cause of bitter regret.-..- I wish that I could hereech you so to store your minds with the exquisite learning of loemer ages, that y ou may pone, within yourselves the sources of _rational and refi ne d enjoyment, which will enable you to mt. at.nought the pl easures of sense, and thoornimlinbgueyyoouurtoselvveishwuiothuathheasohiutsziclthapthiylooeou ritzy of later d a y s , ay look down On walk unhurt pt, as did the eage of old time—but with the desire of enlightening the ignorant, by so 13 su w p it e h re w ili h o i u ch s contempt, as "4 may y ee l, your attention is directed e th rror rou_gh no t t he w t i ria th much the .more endeared as _they want, your iestruction.

Be assured that the Ree s e - chisel falls not more short of the .wonders of the Acropolis,,. than the. productions of modern. pens fail short of the chaste: en d vigorous eloquence that re6isdaisly- futruinod over. Greece,. Be fully assured that the greatest w0r1 . 91 of poetry and eke.. auence have been done by those who cultivated most: gently the examples of Athonienexcellewe, Among poets there. is hardly an exception to this rule, unless e ‘Thakspeare, oecep -tioe to all rules, he taken ; and Dente, familiarly acqoaleted with the best works of his owu country. But among the Ora tors, know not of an exception. Cicero so honoured the Greek masters of eloquence, that he not only repaired to Athens to finish his 'education there., but continued the practice for many years of declaiming in Greek. And thougd- he fell into a more corrupt-Meow end style then introduced by Asienfeellions, yet - he ever extols the noble perfection of his first masters, and, even at a late period of his • life,•he employed himself in trensla. tions from the Greek. orators. From the immorte speech •of DemOsthenes on the Crown, he sonietirnes copies even to the very 'letter. And in the Roman orator may be found the peseage in which lEschines describes the torments reserved for the guilty in a future state--(see Orations ageinst .14ecitte Vise). 1 h ave dwelt on the practice of Cicero, because it enables us to answer :the question whether the study, of Roman authors is not enough TO refine our style ? He-either fell short fa copying them e or, misled by admiration of embellishment, or adopting the false Inoileht of the Asian school, weakened his style f eloquence., i•Veslitialti not, by imitating. the same but ; bee Rerfect ori ginal, copy his faults; for thus, to a commanding and • noble beauty; we should prefer . the image of some gairish damsel, re. fleeted from a mirror, which,: if it distorts not the- leatureei weakens the hrilliancyof her_ natural tints. But there are other reasons which justify the serne observations, grounded on. the beenty and power of the- Greek languitge. The compositions of Cicero, exquisite as they are for diction and style, are n.,;ver theless so extremely oratorical, that nothing carne less - adapted to the genius of modern eloquence. Nearly all the orations of Marcus- Tullius.are of this nature. Hardly two passages can be found which would bear to be repeated to a modern audi. ence. Passages on the merits of the case, and in defenee of the charge, or in mitigation of punishment, might be used, or whe. thee we read his political or • forensic orations, the style of rea. stoning and ornament is wholly unfitted foe the more severe and less trifling eloquence ofmodeen times. But it is altogether dif ferent with the Grecian orators ; for, by softening the invectives so as better to suite the chivalry of modern hostility, there is hardly any political or forensic oration of the Greeks that might not be delivered before a modern assembly. Their panegyrics are far less inflated than those of the French preachers and academicians. There is this difference between the Greeks ande Roman orators—the former never speaks for .the sake of speaking ; but the latter seems- ever . and anon to lose sight of the subject-matter, and to adorn and embel lish. He tickles the ear. without reaching the heart. For in all the orations of Cicero end Livy, where shall - be found that quick succession of short questions, by which Demosthenes groups, as it• were,. the whole subject in a few sentences ? But . though the more business-like manner of modern debate ap proachmach nearer the Greek eloquence, it rnwst be admitted that it falls short in. the chnvmesa. of the. argument; for th e Roman orator has his speech parcelled out into divisions.— Now, says he, I 'am *signing to rouse• your passions . ; and now I will amuse your fancy ; and now I mean to convince your understanding. But in all the divisions, the Greek makes the figures an integral: part of the reasoning.-- In the most pathetic part of one of his orations, Demosthenes, after introducing - a most -eloquent passage, instantly, not abruptly, returns into the midst of the malt' argument, with the whole of his.powers, spewing that the merits of public set stints, not their success, should be the standard by which they; ought to be judged. There runs through the whole speech the: • most admirable ease; and with the same ease does Virgil, in the Georgics, make a transition, where, in the midst of,the i description of a fight, the - magician strikes hiS wand in' the fi e ld of battle, and helmets are cast abroad, where suddenly. a !One hushapdnmn is reuresented to us as turning pp the earth, and driving his plough, among helmets rusted over 'end - the bones of mighty ment— • • " Scilicet et tempus veneit corn finibus illis Agricola, incurvo terram meatus aratro, Exe,:a inveniet scabra rubigine pile Aut gravibus rastris geleas pulsabit manes, Grandiuque efresis mirabitur ossasepolchris." • ((Icor.. I. 4n3-7.) But if a further reason is required, we may find it in the greater diversity and importance of the subjects on which they speak. Besides a number of orations merely forensic, we have all the subjects of state politica. Conipare Demosthenes With Cicero ini n it i2i ili tn ne a , nj arr a d tg - o the e in alit respect, a nd th e contra s t w ill be striking. For this peir- POTD. esee o the th e n orations a a v g e 4 n at ot C o nta.on mat. tern strictly' plivat e , an d many on interesting topics; but many invaluable considerations of state policy, its .in the Oration against rEschines on the uvn, and the Phillipnics. In these he discusses every question of foreign' politica. These speeches were delivered on subjects the most important and affecting to the tvliole cornmonivealtti. . These topics were of •universal ap plication. The Latin orator must keep a middle course of arga nient, but the Athenian can hardly hold too lofty a ton e , or carry his views too extensively ov er the field of human freedom. After chastening the taste, it is .nceessnry to acquire correct ha bits of writing in our own language, first by original cor iposi . tion, and next be frequent translation. The best English writers. are those which Ilourisbed-faern the time of Elizabeth to that of Queen Anne. They used a good Saxon dialect, arid were learned in the ancient classics, without overloading the style of prose with a pedantic coining of foreign \cords. These great writers had no foreknowledge that other writers would succeed them, whose styles should be •meeetticionsly ornamented. mote than half French in the diction, heavily inflated, rneasuted by the eye, • not judged by the ear, with an endless profusion of ancient words • and phrases, confusedly.mixed with our own Saxon..

And to one charge all are exposed.--a fault unknown in ancient times. They always overdid, never knowing when they had said enough. • Among the 13r-2eks a single phrase, was used,,often a word, and the work was done. The desired impression is made by a single stroke.
