vie thy brother. know that he can

him, and put words in his mouth; and
will be with thy mouth, and with his mouth
and will teach you what ye shall do" II
is an astonishing fact, that the first orator,
whose name is recorded in the pages Of
holy writ, was especially commanded by
the Deity, 10 exert that eloquence in be-
hall Of people, the Israelites, who were
in slavery and bondage TO the Egyptians.
How did the Dedosihenes aud the Ciceros
Of modern days, or the Chathams or the
Burkcs Of more modern times, render their
own names. and those of their country im-
mortal! They derived all their glory,
by following the example of Aaron, by
pleading the cause OF insulted, abused, de-
graded and enslayed humanity. The
same divine blessing formerly promised 10
the Jewish orator, seems to have followed
the labors Of bis representatives, in times
more modern, and even to have descended
down to our day. When Chatham, when
Fox, and when Burke pleaded the cause
of the oppressed, their labors were accom-.
panied by the same divine blessing, before
bestowed upon Aaron, for the Lord vas
