Conversational Powers.

Flnency in conversation must not be as
crihed az lest of talent. Men of genius
and wisdom have often been found deticien,
in its graces. Adam Smith ever retained
in company The embarrassed manner Of a
student. Neither Button nor Rossean car
ried their eloGuence into society. The si-
lence of the poet Chaucer was held more
desirable Than his speech. The conversa
ton of Goldsmith did not evince the grace
and tenderness that characterize his co mpo
sitions. Thompson was difldeni, and OF
ten undressing. Dante was taclturn /;
and all the brillancy of Tasso was in his
pen. Descartes seemed formed for soil
Jude. Cowley was a quaint observer; his
conversation was slow and dull, and his
humor reserved. Hogar,h was absen t
minded, and the sludious Thomas Park e r
said that he was fitted for no communion
save the dead. Our own Hamilton, Frank
lin, and host of others, were deficient
in the fuency which often fascinated pro
miscuous circle.
