THE DECIINE OF oRAronr

1t is evident that oratory is on the decline
This is attributed to two reasons, one that
the progressive, all-pervading power of the
press has superseded to a great extent
the necessity of public speaking, and the
other is attributed to the growing DISPOSE
ton of men to read their speeches and
orations. We see it stated that Voorhees,
reads his speeches; so does Pendleton; so
does David Davis; 50 does Hampton. Mr..
Lamar hardly trusts himself without manus-
cript even when it would not take five
minutes to deliver what he has composed.
Even Vance, the wonder of the hustings,
sticks to his essay before him, and sacrifices
the flavor of his oratorical fuency. Mr.
Beck is in the same category. Even George
Vest of Missouri, one of the finest natural
orators the country has ever produced, has
fallen into the habit of reading his speeches,
which fall stale, fat and improbable, as
Vest is nothing without the vehemence
of his imprisoned oratory. A few
days since we read a sermon deliv-
cred before a Methodist Episcopal con-
ference on the practice of clergymen read
ing sermons. The speaker was opposed to
written sermons, and said: "How does it
look? Suppose lawyer, when he addresses
a Jury in defense of a prisoner charged with
some grave crime, should unroll paper and
read his plea to them. What effect would it
have? And suppose when n young man
wishes 70 tell . young lady of his love for
her he should take from the breast-pocket of
his coat a sheet of foolscap and read:
Lovely woman, thine eyes are like night,
ny hair like the ravens color, thy teeth like
worry, thy lips like rubies, and thy voice
ounds like the bubbling of spring water on
