Cicero pleaded the cause OF Sicily
against Verres. and Taycitus thundered
against the oppressor OF Africa. X
In the midst of the blaze Of red drapery
space had been fitted up with green
benches and tables fol: 1hn Commons.
The managers, with tta1xe at their
head, appeared in full dress,
and the box in which they stood con-
tanned All array of spea. .kers such as had
not appeared together since the great
age of Athenian eloquence.
The trial, as I said before, lasted
more than seven years.. and finally re-
suited in the acquittal of Hastings; but
Burke's real object had been gained,
the tyranny OF the East India Company
had been shown up to the world and its
continuance or repetition made impos-
sible.
Personally, Burke had a kind and
gentle disposition. He was charitable
to the poor, and took q deep interest in
young persons Of MERIT who We're strug-
Cling upward. He hated oppression
and injustice in every form. and half Of
his life was spent i'll laiboring for those
from whom he could receive no COM
pensation nor even thanks. In early
life his health was delicate. and he
spent most Of his time at home reading
books. AL of his life WAS spent among
literary people, and he acquired a store
Of knowledge that was; simply astonish-
ing. When he rose to speak everything
was at his command! ancient history,
poetry. philosophy and law, modern
history, fiction, statistics, names, dates
Everything that could e1iliven and IL
lustrate the subject in hand. He had
brilliant imagination, and by the use
OF pure English and choice figures of
speech he Illuminated the dullest sub
iect and most tedious recital OF facts.
SO as to make them read like novel.
Webster, in mis- Piymo;uta Rock ora
tion, said chat Burke was the most
consumrnate orator Of modern times.''
Macaulay says that Gin amplitude OF
comprehension and richness Of iynagin-
alton he surpassed all orators, ancient
or modern" ,Je1fries, editor OF the
Edinburgh Review, says that he
was one Of the greatest intellects that
England has produced for centuries,
and Of a noble and lovabIe nature.''
John Morley, 1lle late Secretary FOR Ire
land under Mr Gladstone. has written
a biography Of Burke, i'll which he says
| shat rs an orator he was transcend
ent, chat each sentence falls on the ear
with the accent OF some isilver-tongued
oracle of the wise gods. and that his
stride in passing from the discussion Of
{. one subject to another is the stride Of q
giant"
| Critics assign the first place in Eng
lish literature 10 Shakespeare by unazl--
imons consent. Some give the second
place TO Bacon, others to Burke; but if
| it can be proved that Bacon wrote the
great plays. as it now seems probable,
the first place must be assigned to him
and the second to Burke.
Such is the character which I would
commend to the study and emulation
Of the young people Of the Land
League. We should have ideals to
| work up to. Most OF US will fall far
short of tbs ideals, but we will not
stand as low as though we had no ideals
at all.
