Ralph WALDO EMERSON. We were

listening to this man of celebrity on Mon
day evening. Those who assert that Mr..
EMERSON is an orator are simply mistaken.
That he writes and reasons we'll no one can
doubt, bu, he 10 no orator. In that respect
we were disappointed, but in Others we
found him much as we had anticipated
The frs, part of his lecture was By no means
aattering to his reputation, but the latter
portion redeemed it. That the audience
appreciated the many good things that fell
from his lips. was apparent in the silence
with which they listened TO bis remarks
II would have been difficult matter to have
given his address name, indeed We doubt
ii the author Himself was not at loss TO
give it an appropriate title. He treated Ia
concay upon many subjects, and all OF
them he handled skillully, leaving in his
wake train for thought which will come
upon the nind at unexpected moments like
a forgotten dream. His lecture, like La
con, should have been ascrlbed ito those
who think"
