Anacharsls after being present at an assam
bly, of the Athenians said, 8 ne was aston
ished to see in their deliberations, that it
was the 1viSe men who spoke and the t9ols
who decided" La these assemblies, some
times they gave their suTrages by ballot,
but oftener by holding up of hands which is
sign of appreciation. The plurality ofsut.
frages once obtained, and the decree read
third time without opposition, the presl-
dents dismiss the assembly, which breaks
I'D with the same noise and tumult as have
prevailed during the whole course OF the
deliberations (2o)
so many chiefs of parties, now seconded
by military officers whose protection they
had secured, and now attended by fsctlou,
subalterns, whose fury they could mode
ra,e at pleasure. No sooner did they make
their appe arance in the lists than they coma
menced the attack by insults (21) which an
in ated the multitude by strokes of pleasan.
try which transported them beyond them
selves. Presently the clamours, the ap.
plauses, the bnrsts of laughter, (22) that a
rose from all sides, stiAed the voice OF the
senators who presided at the assembly; OF
the guards stationed on every side to
maintain order; (25) nay even of the ora,

to the ground, by the same paltry articles,
that so often overthrow dramatic piece at
