Farwell,s Farewell Shot.

Senator Wolcott, of Colorado. was in
the city yesterday. The Senator relat'
ed one Of Senator Farwell'sexperience
with President Harrison. AT the
time when the Senator from Illinois
and the President were not sending
bouquets to one another Mr.. Farwell
was obliged to call upon his Excell--
ency regarding matters affecting the
State. Three times his card went up
the White House stairs, and the an
swer "Not at home" came down each
time. Again Senator Farwell called.
This time Secretary Halford received
the Chicagoan.
"You wished to see the President,
Senator Farwell?"
"On business natter
81 could not transact for you?"
No, / will have to see Mr.. Harri-
son personally"
"I am very sorry, Senator but he
can't be seen to-day"
aIsn't that a pity? | heard thrt he

tors. Without war, no soldier; with

1t is one Of the worst of errors to
suppose there is another path of
safety than that of duty.
A wise man should have money in
his head but never in his heart.
Lean make a lord, but only the
Almighty can make gentleman.
Experience keeps dear school ;
but fools will learn in no other and
scarce in that for this is true, We
may give advice, but we cannot give
conduct. However, they that will
not be counseled cannot be helped,
and if you will not hear Reason, she

MacauIay as a Sneaker.

Men listened to Macaulay with re-
spect, weighed his arguments, reflected
on what he had said, were often con-
vinced, sometimes converted, but no.
where did crowds of eager listeners
and ardent admirers bend beneath the
music Of his voice or the lightning
glance of his eye. An old friend of
mine, recently died, who had often
heard him and remembered him per =
fectly, assured me, however, that he
was great power fifty years ago, and
he believed that his oratorical
triumphs hardly received full credit
in those days.
Macaulay himself said that one of
his chief defects as public speaker
was his extraordinary rapidity of
utterance. which spoiled the effect of
his words. His speeches resembled
carefully prepared essays, delivered
with incredible rapidity and some
want of impressiveness, rather than
the spontaneous outburst of the
orators full heart. Fluency and
great facility in finding the right
words are not an unmixed gain to the
speaker. Appropriate pauses and en-
phasis are even more important, other
wise torrent of words lacks impress
siveness.
Then the management of the voice
counts for very much. A speech that
flows on like a rope unwound from a
cylinder is not good one. Again,
to be successful speech must be en-
liyened with anecdotes or humor.
People can always read for solid in
struction, but platform speaker
must amuse and please rather than
teach.-Gentleman's Magazine.
