The Voice that win. its Way.
ScOlding.

To call man q liar is not to prove him
false-to denounce him as traitor is not
~ establish his treason. The eloauence
which consists Of personal aspe-siOn is n
gun OF which the recOil is much more fatal
than the discharge; and since cursirg is
much easier than convincing, when a man
begins the one you may be very sure that
he despairs of the other.
But the fatal difficulty with wholesale
personal vituperation is that its tendency
is to compel men to your own course not
by persuasion and conviction, which are
the only honorable motives of conduct, but
by the fear of abuse or the desire to avoid
the expecto ration Of scurrility. Vitupera.
ton is akin to the skunk's argument. If
you cross me. it says, will make you smell
us badly as can.
VituperatiOn presupposes infallibility.-
think," it says, "that the only wav To
avoid terrible injustice is to do this. and
/ think 80 honestly. You don't agree with
me; you pretend to believe that il can be
avoided in some other way. Pooh YOU
are dishonest, treacherous, weak and time
serving. You are traitor, fool, a per-
jurer knave. You are liar, scoundrel
thief, and a murderer"
neTS0n
sssailed but pity and contempt, and the
s'lentappeal to the heart Of mankind, which
is just at last.
There is plea which is sometimes made
Tor this acrimonious personal criticism and
aspersion of motives. 1t is this: Here |
am," says the orator, "in q community
which looks to certain men as its examples.
not to certain principles as its guides -
Now, j may talk till drop about the duty
Of being just. Everybody agrees abstractly,
but goes on following the models who act
unlustly. Ii, then, say distinctly, this
model OF yours Is mean, time serving
man, because, in my estimation, he does
unjustiy.' the followers are aroused by their
personal interest, and outraged sense Of
propriety to see just what it is mean. If
the idols of the young men are base, show
and say that they are so. and their worship
will corrupt the young men no more"
This is the plea, but it does not touch
the case. 1t is not showing that the Idol
is base merely to say that it is so. 1t is
necessary, fret of all, to establish the dis
honesty Of the man and when you have
done that you do not need to BLACKBOARD
him.
The proof of his dishonesty is sharper
sung than lies IN any word of yours. Bot
to assume his dishonesty because be differs
from you, and ,hereupOn to pelr him with
bad names, that is folly and fault which
the universal instinct of men perceives and
condemns, You may hold to your own
faith ever so sincerely, yet you do not be-
heve bit more honestly than the man who
profoundly differs from you. If you will
not allow that men may honestly differ, and
that you owe to what seems to you honest
error in another man precisely the same
consideration that you claim from him for
your own sincere faith, you are really
monomaniao. Moral despotsm ia equally
hateful in triple crown, peaked hat. or
a broad brim. elearn this truth slowly.
but we learn it surely, thank God

In the summer of 1855 he was sent 70

The Col. was presented, of course, to the
Queen Of Spain, and said so many hand

Soule's ready wit and oily tongue made

English into Spanish. The Queen was
