EFFECT OF THE SPEECH.
The Union people were wild with delight
and many a doubling Thomas was swept
into the support OF the government, and
yet not one word Of personal abuse escaped
his lips. Through the whole course OF that
most masterful effort he was courtesy and
kindness itself to the opposition. treating
them as friends who had been misled. but
whom ne was proud to greet at cele-
bration of the country's natal day in pur-
suit Of the truth as to the best manner
Of preserving the Nations life. Those who
were not convinced turned sadly away, ev-
identity feeling at heart that their cause
was lost. and from that day began the
decadence Of the secret cabals that had
threatened the peace of the State.
To those who have come upon the stage
since the war 1t is not possi-
BILE to convey ? an adequate idea
of the intense feeling that pre-
vailed at that time, and consequently
OF the warmth and enthusiasm with which
his speech was received. The women were
even wilder than the men in their applause
and their expressions OF intense gratifica-
tion. I remember that one stately woman.
whose son or husband was, probably, at the
front, with tears in her eyes cried out. "Ohl
feel just like I could take him in my
armsr"
When. after the conclusion OF the speech,
few persons, who had long been acQuaint-
ances and friends of the Governor, accom-
panied him TO the train upon which he was
to return to Indianapolis, some one, chat
fing him about his popularity with the
women, told the incident above alluded to,
he responded. laughingly, ''Nhy didn't you
introduce me?'
Morton's great power lay in the simplicity
and directness of his statements. He in
dulged I'm no needless flights Of oratory but
first, making himself thoroughly familiar
with his subject in all it's phases, addressed
himself to it and permitted no temptation
to induce him to break the chain of his ar
gument for the sake OF apparent brilliancy
or to provoke momentary applause. His
We're the deep-laid foundations and rugged
walls Of the fortress rather than the miracle
OF architectural genius; and yet he did not
lack in the graces of art, and his finished
structures were models Of the severer and
more enduring types Of forensic effort.
Usually his best work was that which he
had most carefully prepared but upon that
memorable Fourth OF July his thoughts
flowed so freely and with such resstless
motion that no amount of previous prepara-
ton could have heightened the power and
effect of his speech.
