The Lyceum system does not exist in
Germany, as yet: but few individuals
have achieved some success as lectu-
rers. Carl Vogt and Buecher, the natu-
ralists, Jordan, the rhapsodist, and
Fritz Reuter-, as reader Of his Low
German stories, have made the profes-
sion popular and remunerative. This is
due. however, to q special interest in
themselves, and their subjects, as we'll
as to more picturesque and animated
delivery than the people have been ac-
customed to hear. Lectures haye not
vet become q necessary form Of popular
culture, and one reason is the utter In
difference of the average German lectu-
rer to the audience which he addresses.
Given his subject, he treats it first in
the manner of college thesis, discharg-
ing all illustrations or applications
which might be adapted to the bearers
habits of thought; then, standing behind
a high desk and two lamps, he fastens
his eyes upon the manuscript and
keeps them there to the end, while he
reads in u mechanical, monot0nous tone,
with little infection and less emphasis.
I doubt whether an Athenian audience
would have tolerated such q manner OF
delivery; our American audiences will
lcertainly not.
I will only say of the lecture that the
passages recited from Bryant, Emef.
son, Whittier, Longfellow, and other
poets, seemed 10 be thoroughly appre-
ciated by the audience. The Grand
| Duchess frankly exclaimed, "How beau
tifulp' at the end OF Whittier's Songs oi
the Slaves in the Desert. There was
also an evident interest created in the
Younger authors whom mentioned, and
during the succeeding days was ask
| ed many questions concerning Stedman
fStoddard, Aldrich and Bret Harte. Ii
