in proportion as we advance, speakers will
become more colloguial. and writers less
rhetorical.
The lecture is class Of composition
which has come immensely init vogue Of
late years. and combines, iii a singlaru
manner, the requirements, of q speech or
an essay. IL is less oratorical than the
first, and more popular than the second.
1t hits the average amount of intelligence
in mixed audience, who listen we'll
pleased TO the words of familiar wisdom.
1t enters into more scientific and histori-
cal detail then is usual in speeches.,
while it avoids taxing the attention of
hearers unduly to the steps by which
conclusions are arrived at Its two fold
character, its being half speech, half es
say. constitutes its great popularity, The
lecture is now recognized branch Of lit
erature, distinct alike from the pamphlet,
which it has almost superseded, and from
journalism, to which it owes its rise. A
lecture and leading article are more
nearly allied than other kinds of compo-
sition, yet each has its proper characteris-
tics. Both aim at producing immediate
conviction, but in different ways. The
influence of pamphlets. which was so
great during the civil war of the seven
teenth century, the reign of Anne, and the
earlier part Of the present age began to
decay when lccturing came into vogue.
and has never recovered its ground. Jour-
uaism is more remote from rhetoric than
the lecture, especially journalism of the
highest order, which aims at kind OF
curt philosophy, and disdains what is in- .
direct and redundant. The moment it
becomes oratorical, we are reminded OF
Talleyrand, who, when asked if q certain v
authoress was not rather tiresome," re- P
piled, "Not at all she is perfectly tire

performed last Sunday Bruce Keen,
the young man shot by Smith, died two
days before and was buried on Sunday
The funeral was largely attended, notwith-
standing the rain which commenced fall

lite Church, Of which the deceased was a
member, and was attended by the members
OF the Lone Star u. b. Club in body,
many ofthe returned soldiers of the Union
Army, his former comrades in the service,
besides large numbers of sympathizing
friends.
In this event there Is much that is de-
plorabie and sadly affecting. Young Keen
had been married but short time, and
leaves a young wife and infant child. His
parents had passed through very deep
Affections, and deserve, and will doubtless
receive the sympathy Of all their friends
and their prayers for the support of that
kind and sympathizing Saviour who wept
at the grave OF Lazarus.

tho infamy of their course in order to sue
coed?
Neither does the reduced Republican
majority in Maine show any turning of
the people TO Confederate Democratic poll
tics. Uniform success and an ovcrwhelm-
ing majority haze made the Republicans
supine. And there another element has
entered into politics. The Maine Liquor
Law, which for some years has lain nearly
dormant, has lately been revived and
made extremely stringent by severe penal
ties upon the first offense of selling any
kind of intoxicating drink. This has
caused dissatisfaction among portion Of
the Republicans, and stimulated the Dem
ocrats and liquor sellers to the utmost
efforts to defeat the party that is response
bic for this crusade against intemperance.
The Republican party always has the vi
cIous classes combined against it, and this
measure adds to them some who, though
not vicious, regard such laws as an in
fringcment ON their liberty.
The Maine Liquor Law caused the loss
OF the State to the Republicans in 1856,
and the breaking down Of that restriction.
The spread of intemperance upon that
caused q reaction, and in 1856 the Repub-
licans had sweeping victory aud elected
Hannibal Hamlin Governor, who resigned
and was elected to the United States SEN
ate. Whatever may be the opinion of the
policy of risking the delivery of the State
into the hands OF party whose success
means national destruction, as we'll as
tho hraa f.ae down 81 III l..
the result does not show any popular
secession to the political principles Of the
Democratic party. The Democrats have
not carried the State, and it is a moral
certainty that If the election were to be
had over again, now that the people
have seen the necessity for activity, the
Republican victory would be. as over
whelming MS ever.
These elections are n lesson to the Re-
publican party throughout the country
Division Of their forces in the front Of
such deadly enemy to the nation is a
crime. Supiueuess and apathy at elections
in such a time is as bad as sleeping on
guard when battle is expected. We
must not only carry the elections, but we
must carry them by great majorities in
order to crush the expectations Of national
dissolution which arise when there is any
diminution of them. AS a Democratic
gain in the Northern elections during the
war gave new hopes to the rebel leaders,
so any falling off in the Republican ma
jorities now reyiyes the hope Of Demo-
cratic success which shall sacrifice all that
patriotism has achieved, defeat the meas.
ures Of reconstruction, aud restore to pow
or the party which when turned out of
the Government left il in ruins, aud now
seeks control only to destroy. Our people
sec the results of Republican division in
California, and Of apathy and fanccd Sc
curity in Maine, aud they will improve
