Daniel Webster's Presence.

A timely paper on Daniel Webster,
the centennial of whose birth was cele-
brated January is, has been contributed
to the February Century by W. C. Will
kinson, who thus describes Webster's re-
markable presence:
Perhaps no man ever lived that, quite
apart from any adventitious circum-
stances affecting him, such as accident
of birth, or dignity of station, apart in
deed from actual achievement of his
own, by more and pure force of inher-
ent character and personality, so i'm
pressed the genatiOn to which he be-
longed as did Daniel Webstsr. There
was something almost supernatural
about it. The adJsctives by which he
was eustomarilY characterized, in the
common and instructive speech of the
people, attributed kind of divinity to
the man. He was the 'godlike Daniel"
to his countrymen in general, who thus
called him by phrase which, with a
certain semi-consciOus humor in it racy
Of the national character, redeemed its
own excess-of veReration by a corrective
dash of associated familiarity. But no
less the educated men among his fel-
lows were accustomed to employ in their
own more scholarly way a similar Ian
guage. To them, he was "Jove," "Ge-
scended god" "demi-god," "the Olym-
pian." If he went abroad, some English
man said he looked like a cathedral"
or Sydney Smith, with irreverent hom
age to his Titan might, said he ~was a
steam engine in breeches."
This imposing effect of Webster's per-
sonal presence was partly due to the re-
markable physical mold in which he
was cast. He was not gigantic in pro
portions, was not even greatly above the
medium height; but somehow the be-
holder took from him an instantaneous
and overwhelming impression Of i'm
mense mass, weight, momentum,-in
one word, of power. He was always one
of the sights of Boston, where his pres
enee III the streets made the neighboring
buildings look smaller. Men from the
country, that did not know who it was,
would stand to gaze at him. OF course,
as soon as you we're aware that phys
ical frame so magnificent was the abode
of moral and intellectual nature not
unfit to inhabit it, the pleasarable inspi-
ration of wonder and awe that you felt
in beholding was more than doubled.
But when, in addition, ysu could further
assure yourself that this man WIS the
great lawyer, the great statesman. Ia.
great orator, of his eouatry and time
why, naturally, the enthusiasm ~ -
miration and delight Of Whici yUa s-.fi
conscious in his prrSercu seoalne some
thing extraordinary.
