EARNEST ORATORS.
Boston Common is Outdoor Rostrum

From the Philadelphia Bulletin.
Any one who has ever been in Boston on
fine Sunday afternoon and has then
strolled over the commons, will easily re-
call the amusement. and perhaps. also. .he
amazement. with which he has listened to
the earnest orators who make it their out
of-doOr rostrum. If any man IN Boston is
unable for any reason TO find pulpit or 4
platform for the ventilation of his thoughts,
he is entitled to the privilege of stationil2
himself on the commons and holding forth
to all who may choose to listen. 1t Is not
unseldom that dozen or more little crowds
of auditors may be found at the same time
at various points listening to the elucidSl-
tions of all the problems moral. theolog
ical and spiritual. that beset the minds OF
men. The philosophers and prophets usa-
ally mount themselves on a box. barrol
or stool. and in few minutes draw
around them the curious and the Idle. as
we'll their own particular set of follow
The result is that everybody In Bos-
ton who may have an ism and who has
nerve enough and tongue enough to exploit
it, can go to the commons and practice all
the freedom of speech that pleases him, 50
long as he does not excite tumult or dis
order. The nearest approach we now nave
to anything of this kind in Philadelphia Is
the occasional furtive appearance of some
one on the city hall plaza, or the state
house steps. who has some mission to pro
claim, or in the curbStone exercises OF the
Salvation Army. or in the spouting OF or
thodox itinerants on the streets.
The race of out-of-door cranks on fluent
utteranceS who peculiarly exemplify the
Boston custom of free speech on the high
ways and byways have ceased to be numcr-
Gus in Philadelphia. Certainly 1t may be
doubted whether among those whom We
have had in recent years there has been
any one who has eQualed in ingenuity ana
eccentricity one of the most noted of these
characters in this country, the enterpr1Slns
George Munday, long known to the city AS
the 'hatless prophet The religious
vagaries of Munday were accompanied
by a volubility of speech such as few men
of his kind have had in the same degree.
He believed himself to be charged with the
abuses and corruption, of reforming the
habits of it's ministry and exposing the
wrongs of public servants. He was wont
to appear compare himself to John the
Evangelist and to declare that Jesus Christ
had commissioned him to preach the true
gospel to mankind. Nothing could daunt
him in the execution of his purposes. Every
attempt that was made to put him down
was futile for many years. Indeed. In al
most every part of the city his figure was
as we'll known as that of Crazy Norah
It was one of his special delights to take
his stand in Independence Square and point
to independence Hall as the guarantee OF
his right TO be there; he feariessly confront
ed mayors aldermen and judges, and MS
sharp wit sometimes made him dlfhcult
customer To handle when he was summoned
before them for admOnttion- On one oc-
casion even the President of the United
States did not escape his attention as a
public monitor.
