NATURAL ELOQUENCE.
Mary Orators Replace it by CAREFUL
Elaborated Eloquence.

NIarJ Orators Replace it by CarefulIy
Elaborated Eloquence.
Though natural eloquence is supposed
to be thing of the heart, and of the
inspiration of the moment, great orators
very often have to depend for their clio
quence upon something quite other than
inspiration. It's impossible for them
to speak from full heart on every &C
occasion, and natural eloquence must be
replaced by carefully elaborated elc
quence
Edward Everett, the "silver-tongued
orator." used to write his addresses and
commit them to memory This method
has been followed by many other public
men whose s'impromptu" eloquence has
been a matter for great admiration tc
their hearers. Indeed, it may be lai6
down as an accepted rule that great
speecpes are made beforehand. There
have been some notable exceptions to
this rule, but it is nevertheless rule

nous speech-his great impeachment Of
Napoleon III. and his policy. The
young man listened with interest, and
ventured to say after the reading that,
while the address was a remarkably
strong one, he missed something of the
easy, natural, perfectly simple method
which was characteristic of M. Theirs.
'You are right, said the great orator,

Taking his pen, he proceeded to add .

A Word to Grumb.ers.

Don't be a grumbler. Some people
contrive to get hold of the prickly side
of every thing, to run against all the
sharp corners and disagreeable things.
Half the strength spent in growing
would often set things right. You may
as we'll make up your mind, to begin
with, that no one ever found the world
quite as he would like it; but you are to
take your part of the trouble and bear
it bravery. You will be sure to have
burdens laid upon you that belong to
other people, unless you are shirker
yourself; but don't grumble. If the
work needs doing, and you can do it,
never mind about that other who ought
to have done it and didn't. Those
workers who fill up the gaps and smooth
away the rough spots, and finish up the
fiobs that others leave undone-
they are the true peace-makers, and
worth whole regiment OF GROWERS. -

A CHEERFUL SPIRIT.
Efforts to Be Permanently Useful Must
BE Uniformly Joyous.

Be Uniformly Joyous.
'sHalf of the battle of life," says a
writer, consists in keeping up cheer
full spirit How true! They who COM
plain of ills and disappoin tments and
assert that ''life is not worth living"
are lacking seriously in cheerfulness.
They have not learned one of the most
important lessons that life has char.
acter for good or i'll, according to our
habit of viewing it. Some years ago we
attended religious service on Sunday
in church near our residence but to
which we rarely went. But the dis
course that was delivered by the aged
minister interested US deeply, from be-
ginning to end. 1t was not a brilliant
discourse, yet full of the thought and
earnest comment that proceed from long
experience. The subject was Thankful.
ness, the speaker dwelling upon the
healthful, comforting influence of that
cheerful habit OF mind that sees some-
thing to inspire thankfulness in every
event of life. A day or two later we
learned that the aged minister had left
the dying bed of daughter that very
morning to perform the duties of his
ministry, and when the service was con-
Guided he FASTENED back to her side
What help can depressed, melan-
choly spirit afford? How unreasonable
to expect any thing at all beneficial
from tone of mind that is Responding,
morbid and gloomy. The simplest
practical wisdom warns against the in
diligence of such temper. Admitted
that circumst are unfavorable even
to the degree of desperation, does it pay
to cultivate misery by brooding upon
them. and hugging, as it were, closely
to our heart the horrid corpse of our
misfortune? No; the wise course is to
turn away from the ills and sorrows,
and with an upward, cheerful face en-
ergetically address ourselves to the
duties of our station. That dyspeptic,
irascible old Scotsman, Carlyle, could
appreciate the value of this princely
virtue-for he says in his inimitable
manner:
'Wondrqus is the strength of cheer
fulness; altogether past calculation is
it's power of endurance Efforts to be
permanently useful must be uniformly
joyous spirit all sunshine graceful
from very gladness, beautiful because
bright" Probably he had before his
minds eye when he wrote this, his
much tried, yet always calm and good
natured wife!
If the heart is kept cheerful and
bright no experience of evil fortune can
daunt its courage and its hope. and in
time the clouds that seem to threaten
overthrow and ruin break before it and
disclose the sun of success and joy shin-
ing in the peaceful heaven. -Phreno-

Irishyasn Meet ana Discuss General
Collins's Plaza for Propoaating Them.
A meeting Of Irish Nationalist wes
held Wednesday evening ia the rooms
OF the Irish National Association, Fifth
and Market streets. Patrick r. Mul-
rooney occupied the chair. The question
OF forming Irish Industrial Unions to as
sist in the development of Irish manu-.
facturies, as foreshadowed by General
p. A. Collins of Boston, Mass, was dis
cussed
The plaR Of General Collins was com
mented upon by the chairman, who said:
Ireland can out compete all European
countries, at least, IN two products of
manufacture, namely: Woolen goods
and morocco. The raw materials have
not TO be introduced They already form
e chief portion of the exports Of that
country. The cost Of freight, commits
sion and intermediate profit is saved,
and this advantage 20 sach an extent Is
not TO be found ia any other manufac
turing country in the world Irish tweeds
and cheviots now find a market through
out ell European countries, and to less
extent In America.
Although from sentimental point Of
view this coantry might he expected 20
become a market for Irish products, he
did not think that such would be the
casa. partly on account Of the Increase Of
tariff duty proposed to be laid on by the
Mckinley bill, and partly because Irish
productions would not be vaHed enough
for a considerable time to command o
maRket in this country. If Boston capt.
tslists followed out the suggestions of
General Collins, he thought Irish indus
trial clubs should be established by Irish
men in every city in the United States
to assist In the good work; to enable
Irishmen to stay st home and help thus
to make their land q nation.
