France were excited and DISCONTINUED. She wrote
little tract fullnot Of genius profound reason
ing but of common sense and the little missive
went out as an angel of mercy all over the land, and
fell like balm upon the public irritation, like OIL
upon the troubled waters. 1t unmasked error and
made such appeals to the good sense of the people
that clouds dispersed and the thunders died away
in the distance. By her influence also in educating
the people she wrought great and glorious change
Howard is a name of world wide reputation, not as
belonging to a profound reasoner or one gifted
with song, but to one who, by force OF character,
worked a cure for evils that had disgraced our
common humanity. The present age furnishes
striking instance Of the force of character In Horace
Greeley. He possesses no uncommon isteliect-no
more imagination than the buffalo and no fancy
except for an old hat and threadbare coat-yet he
is endowed with clear head, possesses uncommon
foresight, wonderful energy and strength OF will
great earnestnsss and sincerity, astonishing decl'
sion aad mistaken fortitude, which form iving'
working power which has stampedits image on the
institutions of our country. We may not like his
notions but we cannot shut our eyes to the facttha
he is at this moment exerting an influence greater
than that of any other man. Webster and Clay en-
tranced the nation-the one by the depth and force
Of his arguments, the other by his resistless elo
quence-yet Greeley, with neither OF these gifts, Is
making deeper and more permanent impression
on the public mind. He proves the truth OF the
poets remark that man is made great or little by
his own will. Genius is gift, the high behest o
heaven bestowed on but few-Character we may al
possess. And it is character that moves the world
onward in its march of improve ment that gains the
lasting victory over error, tyranny and wrong
may ennoble the servant as well as the master; it
may shine as brightly in the humblest as in the
highest sphere Of duty. O. s'3 es ai,si-1t 5ea 'yl
We find that we have no room for any more Of
the fine passages which abounded in the lecture
was one of the best of the course-ful of profound
thought and good sense. '
